Abstract: A refrigerated stainless steel shipping container for use in transporting and holding perishable foods in a refrigerated or frozen condition for offshore oil and gas and marine industries. The shipping container is comprised of an exterior box encasing an interior box enclosing a food refrigeration chamber. Spaced apart exterior and interior walls on the interior box create compartments for cooling material such as dry ice. Cooling material is selectively placed in the cooling compartments to control the temperature in the refrigeration chamber without electricity or other external power source. The cooling compartments are vented to the outside of the cooling container to avoid exposure of the refrigeration chamber to gases produced by dissipating cooling material. The shipping container is skid mounted and has lifting lugs for attachment to lifting slings.

Abstract: An epilating appliance for the removal of human body hair, with a casing adapted to be held in the user's hand, with a rotary cylinder including pincer elements driven by a motor. At least one actuator element extends through the rotary cylinder for actuating the pincer elements coupled thereto. The actuator element being operable by an associated pressure element and being displaceable against the pressure of a spring, wherein structure is provided for adjusting the gripping force of the pincer elements.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an epilating appliance for the removal of human body hair, with a casing (1) adapted to be held in the user's hand, with a rotary cylinder (7) including pincer elements and driven by a motor (3), and with at least one actuator element (9, 10) extending through the rotary cylinder (7) for actuating the pincer elements (5, 6) coupled thereto, with at least one actuator element (9, 10) being operable by an associated pressure element (47) and being displaceable against the pressure of a spring (44), wherein the relative distance of cooperating pincer elements (5, 6) is variable by means of an adjusting device.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an epilating appliance with a casing 2 for accommodating a rotary cylinder 4 mounted on an axle 19 and adapted to be driven by a motor 10, the rotary cylinder having associated to it a plurality of pinching members 42, 43 provided with cutouts 44. The pinching members 42, 43 are capable of pivoting and moving into contact with each other in pairs by means of actuating members 26, 27 located at a distance to the axle 19 of the rotary cylinder 4 and displaceable against the action of at least one spring 39. In order to increase the lever arm for pivotal movement of the pinching members 42, 43, the pivot axis of the pinching members 42, 43 of the rotary cylinder 4 extends at a large relative distance to the axis of the rotary cylinder.
