Abstract: An apparatus for cooking at least one egg with an eggshell, comprises a housing provided with a device for providing microwave radiation in a confined space in the housing and a holder located in the confined space. The holder is provided with at least one cavity adapted to the shape of the egg with the eggshell. The holder comprises at least a first holder part and a second holder part being movable with respect to each other between a first position in which an egg with an eggshell can be positioned in the cavity to a second position wherein the holder parts enclose the cavity. The apparatus further comprises means to insert a liquid into the holder for filling the cavity with the liquid to at least partly surround the eggshell of the egg located in the cavity. The apparatus comprises a container for holding the liquid and a dosing unit to add at least one component to the liquid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for adding a liquid or gaseous additive to tap water, comprising at least one additive container for the additive, at least one feed channel leading from the additive container to a tap water conduit located downstream of a controllable tap and at least one controllable closing valve placed in the channel. For the purpose of adding the additive to the water use can be made of a pressurized container. This pressure can be generated by a propellant gas already present in the container. It is also possible to make use of a pump incorporated in the device which can be driven in diverse ways. It is however recommended for the additive container to be coupled to a pump for pumping additive present in the interior of the additive container to the feed channel.

Abstract: The invention comprises a measurement device for lung function measurement comprising a flow tube forming an air-flow path, an actuator for closing and opening the flow tube and at least one sensor for measuring at least one lung function variable, wherein the actuator is arranged to force the flow tube to close the air-flow path by pressing the tube against a wall of the flow tube.

Abstract: An observation device includes a housing and an optical lens having a field of view. The housing includes an outer dome having at least one transparent portion and an inner dome. The optical lens is accommodated within the housing. The outer dome is transparent in the field of view of the lens and is configured to protect the lens. The observation device is resistant to impact by an object with a maximum impact energy of a first magnitude. A like observation device, but lacking an inner dome, is resistant to impact by the object with a maximum impact energy of a second magnitude. The ratio between the first magnitude and the second magnitude is at least 1.1.
