Abstract: A binding for skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis and/or snowshoes permitting free lifting of the heel, which permits to lift the front part of the foot. The object of the present solution is also an adapter for standard bindings, a method of binding shoes for skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis and/or snowshoes, and also a shoe for riding skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis intended for use in bindings permitting free lifting of the heel.

Abstract: The invention relates to pesticidal compositions comprising trisiloxane surfactants and a matrix-forming agent, which compositions are capable of controlling pests and pathogens using a physical mode of action. Accordingly, in one aspect, the present disclosure provides a pesticidal composition for controlling pests and pathogens with a physical mode of action. The composition comprises trisiloxane surfactants and matrix-forming agents. The composition may form a gel matrix or a film matrix. The trisiloxane surfactants may be selected from the group consisting of Silwet L-77, Silwet 408, Break-Thru S-240, and Silibase 2848. The matrixforming agents of a pesticidal composition are selected from the group consisting of chitosan salts and sol-gel precursors.

Abstract: A wire rope safety barrier comprising a plurality of line posts positioned along a roadway. A plurality of cables are attached to the line posts and extend between the line posts to define a safety barrier along the roadway. At least one of the plurality of cables is an external cable engaging an outer surface of the line posts. Each external cable is connected to the line posts by a cable holder inserted through the cable holder slot, and the cable holder has a body portion and a hook portion. Each cable holder has a locating notch at a bottom surface configured to engage with the lower edge of a corresponding cable holder slot.

Abstract: A bee attracting and bee tranquilizing composition has the form of an oil/water emulsion in aqueous phase, wherein the oil phase contains citral (3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienal), eugenol (4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol) and an oil carrier in an amount of 10% to 50% by weight of the composition, wherein the weight ratio of citral to eugenol is in a range from 1 to 10, and more preferably in a range from 1.7 to 5, and the aqueous phase contains a sweetener in an amount of 15% to 60% by weight based on the total weight of the aqueous phase. The sweetener is preferably selected from the group including: saccharose, fructose, glucose, sugar, inverted sugar syrup, maltose syrup and mixtures thereof. The invention also relates to methods and uses of such a composition for increasing the productivity of a crop area requiring bee pollination in agricultural and/or horticultural environments.

Abstract: A rescue device with a hybrid foldable avalanche airbag, the airbag containing at least one outer gas compartment that surrounds at least one inner air compartment. The outer compartment constitutes a pneumatic support frame for the airbag connected via a discharge valve with at least one pressurized gas cartridge. The inner air compartment is provided with at least one check valve through which ambient air is drawn in. The folded airbag is placed in a pocket of a backpack or in a pouch provided with shoulder straps connected to a buckled belt forming thereby a vest.
