Abstract: A belt buckle for a plug-in tongue of a vehicle seat belt. The buckle includes a holding mechanism for holding an inserted plug-in tongue and with a belt buckle housing which includes a first shell part and a second shell part locked onto the first shell part. The buckle includes a rod-shaped latch element that is mounted on the first shell part. The latch element is pushed along its longitudinal direction into a latch receiver of the second shell part and is held there by means of at least one pair of latching fins. The latching fins on opposite sides of the latch element each bear at an angle on a latch edge, formed on the surface of the latch element, and prevent a withdrawal of the latch element from the latch receiver counter to the insertion direction.

Abstract: A plurality of moist pads are arranged in two stacks (36,40) such that the pads (32,34) of the stacks (36,40) overlap in a partial region in such a manner that a pad (24) of a second stack (40) protrudes into the partial region (74) between two pads (32) of a first stack (36). The pads (32) of the first stack (36) and the pads (34) of the second stack (40) each have a material cut-out (50) at the edge in order to form a gripping aid, and the pads (32) of the first stack (36) and of the second stack (40) are each oriented in such a manner that the material cut-outs (50) of the pads (32) of the first stack and the material cut-outs of the pads of the second stack jointly define the partial region.

Abstract: An absorbent body for hygiene articles, particularly sanitary napkins or panty liners, includes a liquid absorbing and distributing layer facing the body and made of a first fibrous material with a first pore size, and a liquid storage layer facing away from the body and including at least 20 to 98 wt. % cellulose fibers, with a second pore size smaller than the first pore size. The first fibrous material is made of interlinked cellulose fibers, and the layers are interconnected, without adhesives by a multitude of embossing points provided in grid-like manner which results in the formation of a funnel-shaped pore gradient in the liquid absorbing and distributing layer around the embossing points. This pore gradient assists in the introduction of liquid into the underlying storage layer.
