The invention relates to a container, especially for cigarettes, having a base and a lid. The base includes a bottom area and a first wall, and the lid includes a cover area and a second wall. The base and the lid are hinged to each other on a first side of the first wall and a first side of the second wall. When the container is in a closed state, a gap is formed between the other sides of the first wall and the other sides of the second wall. A protective cover is disposed around the base and ...

Described is a drive motor, in particular for a pump, which has a rotor having a drive shaft, and a stator enclosed by a stator casing which is enclosed by an outer casing. The stator casing and the outer casing form an intermediate space which is hermetically sealingly closed off and which is filled with a cooling fluid. The cooling fluid is positively moved by means of a coolant impeller. For that purpose the coolant impeller is coupled to the drive shaft of the electric drive motor by means o...

A dispenser is provided with a carousel rotatably supported within a housing. The carousel includes multiple cells spaced circumferentially from each other upon the carousel. A door is provided in the housing which provides access to one cell. Each cell can contain an item, such as a newspaper, to be dispensed. A coin-op is mounted to the dispenser and allows a lever to be manually actuated when payment is made. When the lever is actuated, a latch of a door control assembly is released so that t...

A chair (1, 1'), in particular an office chair, having a backrest (6) which is arranged such that it can be rotated about a first point of rotation (8) in relation to a seat carrier (2) and which can be inclined from a rest position, and having a seat surface (10) which is connected to the backrest (6) such that it can be rotated about a second point of rotation (12) and which can be inclined synchronously with the backrest, is intended, in particular in terms of its tendency to tilt, also to be...

A corner cabinet has a rectangular interior accessible through a door opening. A support column with a vertical swivel axis is arranged in the interior for supporting at least one essentially semi-circular shelf. The shelf is movable from an interior position into an exterior position in which the shelf projects outwardly past a plane of the door opening. First and second guides are connected at a connecting point to the bottom side of each shelf, respectively. The first guide is pivotably conne...

A pump, especially circulating pump, particularly for heating systems, which has a pump wheel rotatably but axially non-displaceably arranged within a housing which has two suction chambers arranged in axial direction of said pump wheel on opposite sides thereof while at least one pressure chamber likewise arranged in the housing extends around the pump wheel and its axis of rotation. The pump wheel has two suction openings located in the vicinity of its axis of rotation at opposite sides thereo...

A filter comprising a vessel in the form of a closed drum which is rotatably mounted about a horizontal central axis, and a plurality of longitudinal, hollow, horizontal filter elements which are arranged in a ring. The filter elements extend between and are connected to the end walls of the drum for rotation about the central axis together with the drum. The peripheral surfaces of the filter elements constitute a filter surface which, upon rotation of the drum and the elements, will submerge in...

The invention relates to a refrigerating appliance, especially a refrigerator, comprising a plate which consists of photoconductive material which can be removed from the refrigerating appliance with an electric light source which comprises a first electrical or electromagnetic transmission element which interacts--in the inserted or mounted state of the plate--with a second electrical or electromagnetic transmission element applied to the refrigerating appliance, in such a way that electrical c...

A lamp assembly having a lens plate covering the opening and spaced from the lamp. The lens plate is provided with a multiplicity of microlenses such that the lens plate and lamp assembly generates a well defined light cone with a sharp demarcation between the dark region outside the light cone and the illuminated region within the light cone and the illumination within the light cone is homogeneous.
