  • Patent number: 9334888
    Abstract: A fastening device includes a screw (1,21) with a thread part (2) and a shaft part (3,23), the shaft part (3,23) having a recess (4) at the free end for the insertion of a tool, and a sleeve (6,26) with an external thread (7) and an enlarged rim portion (8), which has means for the placement of a second tool. The screw (1,21) is formed by a rod-shaped screw blank made of hardenable steel, which has an enlarged head portion (5) at one end. The sleeve (6,26) can be mounted onto the screw blank from the other end and has a step, which can be placed on or against the head portion (5). The shaft part (3,23) is designed with a support section (16,22) for the pushed on sleeve (6,26) and the support section (16,22) can be generated by deforming the screw blank so as to hold the sleeve (6,26) on the shaft part (3,23) in such a manner that the screw (1,21) and/or the sleeve (6,26) can be rotated. The fastening device, is suitable for being screwed directly into massive materials, e.g.

  • Publication number: 20060155216
    Abstract: The disposable aid is formed as a folded drain member (21) with walls of a hygiene paper which is formed by folding along a central line. The drain member (21) contains an inlet section (22) for the reception of urine, a drain section (23) for the draining of urine into a toilet or the like and a sideways projecting holding part (24) which is connected to the inlet section (22). The inlet section (22) is formed of two wall sections of the same design (26; 27) and can be formed through it into a funnel. A plurality of drain members (21) can be manufactured individually or in roll form and packed into a dispenser. The drain members can be made at favourable cost and enable a comfortable, hygienically advantageous use as well as a simple disposal.

  • Patent number: 6620142
    Abstract: The aid includes at least one hose-like conduit element (1) having walls (2, 3) made of absorbent hygienic paper which bound a conduit channel (4) for urine. The conduit element (1) comprises a first end section (A) having an inlet part (5) positionable at the body of a respective user and a second end section (B) having an outlet part (6) to channel the urine. The first end section (A) is formed by first wall parts (2a and 3a) which are provided with a wetting inhibiting coating (18) at the inner sides. The second end section (B) is formed by second wall parts (2b and 3b) free of wetting inhibiting agent. The first end section (A) is designed with a gripping part (7) protruding to the side which is formed by tongue-like protrusions (12) of the first wall parts (2a and 3a). This embodiment allows a comfortable, hygienically advantageous use of the aid and a fast softening and/or dissolving of the used conduit element (1) in the water of a toilet.
