Abstract: The invention relates to a method for ejecting a pesticide by means of a fluid chamber 3, which communicates via an electrically controlled fluid valve 48 having a spout 22. The method comprises the following steps: determining a pressure and a duration of a time interval for ejecting the pesticide, filling the pesticide into the fluid chamber 3, applying a defined pressure on the pesticide in the fluid chamber 3 and opening the fluid valve 48 by means of an electric control signal for a specific, previously determined time interval and closing the fluid valve 48 after the time interval has expired, so that a defined volume or a defined weight of the pesticide is ejected by the spout 22. The invention further relates to a spray gun for carrying out the method and to the use of said spray gun for ejecting liquid, in particular gel-like, pesticide.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a spray gun for the expulsion of a fluid, with at least one cylinder (1) in which a piston (2) is mounted movably, the cylinder (1) having formed in it a fluid chamber (3), the volume of which can be varied by means of a movement of the piston (2) and in which at least one first cylinder orifice (5) is formed, and a spray orifice which is connected to the first cylinder orifice (5) of the cylinder (1) via a connecting line (20), so that a fluid, which is received by the fluid chamber (3) and is pressed out through the first cylinder orifice (5) by the pressure exerted by the piston (2), arrives via the connecting line (20) at the spray orifice and is expelled there.

Abstract: The present invention comprises, in one aspect, a method for testing a Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) server. According to one feature of the invention, a configuration file for testing is automatically formulated. A software application program tests the SOAP server based on the data in the configuration file. The SOAP server is thus tested repeatedly according to an automatic scheduling for the testing. In other aspects, the invention encompasses a computer apparatus, a computer readable medium, and a carrier wave configured to carry out the foregoing steps.
