Abstract: A toilet seat, system and method including hinge sleeves and a clamping element. The toilet seat being configured to be pushed or pushed open from a same side with the hinge sleeves on a hinge. The toilet seat in a first position is configured to be pushed onto the hinge that is coaxially with the toilet seat and rotatable to a rotation axis of the hinge. The clamping element can feature two bearing tabs protruding therefrom that are configured to secure the toilet seat against axial displacement. At least one of the bearing tabs can include a changeable stop by rotary movement of the clamping element around the axis of rotation.

Abstract: A pinch valve system includes a closing element arranged in an axial direction and includes a closing piece, a permanent magnetic holding device to hold the closing element by a permanent magnetic force in an open or closed position, without energy being supplied to the permanent magnetic holding device, an electromagnetic actuating device to carrying out a switching process, with which the closing element is configured to be moved from the open position to the closed position or from the closed position to the open position, an energy storage device to store an electrical energy which is sufficient to carry out the switching process, and a controller programmed with a predetermined rest position, which is the open or closed position, and the controller configured to trigger the switching process with which the closing element is brought to the rest position by the energy stored in the energy storage device.

Abstract: Disclosed are Bisphenol A (BPA), Bisphenol F, Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE), and Bisphenol F diglycidyl ether (BFDGE)-free coating compositions for metal substrates including an under-coat composition containing a polyester (co)polymer, and an under-coat cross-linker; and an over-coat composition containing a poly(vinyl chloride) (co)polymer dispersed in a substantially nonaqueous carrier liquid, an over-coat cross-linker, and a functional (meth)acrylic (co)polymer. Also provided is a method of coating a metal substrate using the BPA, BPF, BADGE and BFDGE-free coating system to produce a hardened protective coating useful in fabricating metal storage containers. The coated substrate is particularly useful in fabricating multi-part foodstuffs storage containers with “easy-open” end closures.

Abstract: A toilet seat has a toilet seat ring and two coaxial hinges which have two mutually spaced-apart bearing pins and hinge sleeves molded onto the toilet seat ring. The two hinge sleeves slide onto the journals from the same side.
