Abstract: Table for keeping food warm in dishes, said table having a storage surface for the dishes and furthermore having a carrying surface that is provided beneath the storage surface and that is moreover intended for receiving at least one heat source, the storage surface being supported by a continuous table top and the carrying surface being supported by an intermediate shelf, either the table top being configured as fixed and the intermediate shelf opposite the table top being adjustable in height with respect to said table top, or the intermediate shelf being configured as fixed and the table top as being removable.

Abstract: An item of induction cookware for keeping food warm comprises a base with ribs, between which the base is coated with a ferromagnetic material. According to the invention, the ferromagnetic material is divided into fields. This prevents constriction points in the ferromagnetic material, at which intense local heating can occur, which can cause the induction cookware to break.

Abstract: An apparatus for processing at least one optical waveguide comprises a base and a movable part, the movable part being movable with respect to the base. The apparatus comprises a lever, the lever being attached to the base and comprising a notch for holding a cleaved-off part of the at least one optical waveguide. The apparatus comprises a link, one end of which is adapted to be coupled to the lever and an other end of which coupled to the movable part. The cleaved-off part is moved transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the at least one optical waveguide by the lever in response to a movement of the movable part.
