Abstract: The invention relates to a floor with strips each defining a length and width and along the side and end edges provided with either end tongue or groove. The floor is laid in groups each including a number of tongue and groove assembled strips fastened to a subfloor by means of at least one fastener such as a screw or nail which is driven into the subfloor via at least one stepped transverse hole designed with at least one step in the respective strip and resting against the at least one step with a fastener head covered by a cover plug in the transverse hole. In mounted position, the plug is so stuck that it cannot be stepped down into the transverse hole by e.g. a spike heel which will not be able to damage or break the plug either, as the plug is made of a strong and durable metal such as e.g. bronze or steel. The length of each strip is longer than the width of the strip multiplied by the number of strips in a group. The strips engage each other in a strong and at the same time beautiful braided pattern.

Abstract: A manipulator serving for applying a contact lens in or removing it from a user's eye. The manipulator is of the kind that includes a manipulation part for holding the manipulator with the fingers, a supporting part on the manipulation part with the same or a slightly smaller diameter than the contact lens, and a concave face on the supporting part for in use detachably receiving the contact lens. The manipulator furthermore includes a slit made in the supporting part and extending from its concave face. When the manipulator is used to remove a contact lens from an eye, the user presses the slit together a little so that a fold is preliminarily made with a subjacent channel for taking air from the open in under the loosened parts of the contact lens. Using the manipulator according to the invention, a contact lens can easily and safely be removed from a user's eye without risk of thereby injuring the cornea.

Abstract: A magazine for keeping a number of contact lenses kept in each their fluid-filled chamber is disclosed. Each chamber has a supporting wall with a concave face fitting the convex side of the contact lens. The supporting walls are placed in a row along the axis of the concave faces, each supporting wall is detachably separating consecutive chambers. The magazine contains several contact lenses at a time and constitutes an inexpensive and expedient package. When a contact lens is applied in an eye, the magazine is placed with the skirts pointing downwards. The lowest support is then removed from the rest of the magazine with a finger stuck into the skirt of the supporting wall. Due to the moisture present, the contact lens is adhering to the supporting wall which together with its skirt is now transformed into an effective applicator for applying a contact lens in an eye.
