Abstract: An inter-row cultivator with a large working width, comprising a base frame with a chassis, via which the base frame is supported on the soil, and a drawbar by means of which the inter-row cultivator can be suspended on a towing vehicle; at least two tool segments, which extend transversely to the travel direction over the entire working width in a working position and which preferably extend along the travel direction in a transport position; and a plurality of hoeing assemblies which are arranged on the tool segments via a respective height guide device, preferably a remotely adjustable height guide device, wherein soil working tools paired with individual plant rows are arranged on the hoeing assemblies. The aim of the invention is to improve the care of cultivated plants.

Abstract: A wall mounted dishwasher incorporates storage into an exterior door of the dishwasher to facilitate user access to utensils stored in the dishwasher. The exterior door may be hinged and configured to rotate about a substantially vertical axis, and one or more spray devices and/or one or more fluid collection pans may be integrated into the exterior door.

Abstract: A method of making an electromagnetic coil for use in a high-temperature electromagnetic machine includes pre-coating magnet wire with a high-temperature insulation precursor to produce pre-coated magnet wire, winding, while applying in-situ a glass-ceramic slurry, the pre-coated magnet wire into a predetermined coil shape to produce a wet-wound green coil, and thermally processing the wet-wound green coil to produce a processed coil. In some instances, a second layer of a high-temperature insulation may be applied to the processed coil to produce a further insulated processed coil, and then thermally processing the further insulated processed coil to produce a further processed electromagnetic coil.
