Abstract: A connecting device for a plug-and-socket connection containing two connectors that includes a first part (1) with a first connector (2) and a second part (3) with a second connector (4). The first part (1) is equipped with an axle pin (5), and the second part (3) is equipped an axle bearing (6) for the axle pin (5), wherein the second part (3) is pivotable from a release position to a closed position about an axis of rotation (7) defined by the axle bearing (6), wherein the distance d1 of the center axis (16) of the first connector (2) from the axis of rotation (8) is equal to the distance d2 of the center axis (17) of the second connector (4) from the axis of rotation (8).

Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting device for a plug-and-socket connection containing two connectors, comprising a first part (1) with a first connector (2) and a second part (3) with a second connector (4). The first part (1) is equipped with an axle pin (5), and the second part (3) is equipped an axle bearing (6) for said axle pin (5), wherein said second part (3) is capable of being pivoted from a release position to a closed position about an axis of rotation (7) defined by the axle bearing (6), wherein the distance d1 of the center axis (16) of the first connector (2) from the axis of rotation (8) is equal to the distance d2 of the center axis (17) of the second connector (4) from said axis of rotation (8). In order to avoid jamming and permanent deformation during the connecting operation, the first connector (2) will always be in alignment with the second connector (4) during the pivoting operation.

Abstract: A dental chair having a support frame, a seat with a seat frame, a back rest pivotally connected to the seat and a displacement device for moving the seat frame on the support frame with tilting of the seat and an arrangement for controlling the inclination of the back rest, characterized by the pivotal connection between the seat comprising a separate pivoting bearing on each side having a pivot axis approximately in the area of the hip joint of a person sitting in the chair and the arrangement for controlling the inclination of the back rest comprising a one-piece member having two lever arms being pivotally connected on the side of the seat frame with one of the lever arms having a roller riding on the track on the support frame and the other lever arm being connected to a projection of a part of the pivoting bearing which is attached to the seat rest so that as the seat frame is moved between positions, the roller moving on the track enables the back to change its degree of inclination to the seat.
