Abstract: A closure device for connecting two assemblies to each other includes a first closure part, which is associated to a first one of the assemblies and includes a first magnetic element, and a second closure part which includes a second magnetic element. The first closure part and the second closure part can be attached to each other along a closing direction by magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element, are mechanically and/or magnetically held at each other in a closed position, and can be separated from each other for opening the closure device. A connecting part includes a fastening device for fastening the second closure part to the connecting part and an integration portion for fixing the connecting part to a second one of the assemblies.

Abstract: Provided is a closure device for the releasable connecting of two parts to each other including a first closure part, having a first base body, at least two first engaging sections formed on the first base body, spaced apart from each other along a loading direction and forming between them a gap, and at least one first magnetic section arranged on the first base body, and a second closure part, having a second base body, at least one second engaging section formed on the second base body, and at least one second magnetic section arranged on the second base body.

Abstract: Disclosed is a closure device for releasably connecting two parts, including a first closure part which includes a first base body, and a second closure part which includes a second base body. The first closure part and the second closure part can be attached to each other such that in a closed position the first base body and the second base body at least partly are at least positively connected with each other to support a load acting between the first closure part and the second closure part along a load direction, and holding of the first and second closure parts against each other in the closed position is magnetically supported. An engagement opening is formed on the first base body as a through opening into which an engagement portion of the second base body protrudes in the closed position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a closure device for releasably connecting two parts, including a first closure part which includes a first base body, and a second closure part which includes a second base body. The first closure part and the second closure part can be attached to each other such that in a closed position the first base body and the second base body at least partly arc at least positively connected with each other to support a load acting between the first closure part and the second closure part along a load direction, and holding of the first and second closure parts against each other in the closed position is magnetically supported. An engagement opening is formed on the first base body as a through opening into which an engagement portion of the second base body protrudes in the closed position.

Abstract: A device and related method of use are disclosed which employ electrically-conductive wheels to massage and contact the skin to deliver electrical current. The present invention has both cosmetic and drug applications. In a cosmetic application, the rolling action of the wheels provides a light pressure skin massage that is important to reduce the appearance of skin surface irregularities. In a drug application, the device may be used to deliver ingredients of a conductive gel to or into the skin.
