Abstract: The application relates to a braking unit for braking a processing element, said braking unit comprising a guide channel for the processing element, wherein the guide channel has a guide channel inlet and a guide channel outlet, wherein the guide channel has at least one curved section to apply a centrifugal force to the processing element to be braked that moves along the guide channel, said centrifugal force pressing the processing element against an outer curvature region of an inner peripheral surface of the curved section, and wherein the at least one curved section is configured to brake the processing element by friction between the inner peripheral surface of the guide channel and the processing element such that the processing element loses at least 50% of its kinetic energy between the guide channel inlet and the guide channel outlet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fashion article or textile article, such as a cap 100, with a magnetically attachable and/or detachable patch element 200. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to a patch element 200 magnetically attachable to the textile article or fashion article, such as the cap 100, and to a textile article or fashion article, such as the cap 100, configured to magnetically attach the magnetically attachable patch element 200.
