Abstract: Machines and systems for chemical, foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals industry are subject to particularly demanding requirements for hygiene. In particular, equipment used in such machines, must avoid any gaps, in which dirt, bacteria or germs could settle. To avoid this, a hygiene-compliant display and control device having a front plate is proposed, having a peripheral groove, which is open on the outer peripheral surface of the front plate, on the outer edge of the front plate, and a sealing element fitted in the peripheral groove. The outer peripheral surface of the sealing element is arranged flush with the outer peripheral surface of the front plate, and a number of clamping arrangements with a pressing element are provided on the display and control device distributed around the periphery. One axial end of the pressing element engages with a fixing frame, which rests on the mounting plate, or with the mounting plate.

Abstract: A chucking device for a dental tool in a dental handpiece or angle head includes a clamping sleeve with resilient tongues. The resilient tongues of the clamping sleeve are arranged at a distance from each of the two ends of the clamping sleeve. On the side on which an actuating member for the resilient tongues is provided, the internal width of the clamping sleeve is greater than the external diameter of the tools to be used. The actuating member for the resilient tongues is an essentially tubular member whose external diameter corresponds to the internal width of the clamping sleeve and whose internal diameter corresponds to the external diameter of the tools to be used.
