A conductor joint for joining a copper conductor to a fiber-structured heating element whose dimensions are length (L)>>width (W)>>thickness (T), and which heating element comprises carbon fiber strands, wherein the copper conductor is transversely disposed to the longitudinal direction (L) of the heating element to form a layered structure in the thickness direction (T), on both sides of the heating element, the copper conductor comprising strands separable from each other. The strands of the copper conductor, the number and diameter of which are suitable for transferring a power of more than ten kW, are quantitatively substantially evenly distributed on both sides of the heating element, the strands are disposed in a planar manner in such a way that the strands substantially lie in one plane, adjacent to each other, and the ends of the strands extend, in the width direction (W) of the heating element, beyond the heating element, wherein the portions of the ends of the strands extending beyond the heating element overlap each other, and an electric joint is formed between the lateral faces of these overlapping strands.

A terminal for mechanical support of a heating element, includes a base device, a mounting device, the mounting device adapted to support the heating element, and a support device connecting the base device to the mounting device, the support device allowing displacement of the heating element about a radial axis and less than about 10% displacement of the heating element about a tangential and/or axial axis.

Automatic device for the automated conduct of analyses, notably medical analyses, including: a storage zone for bottles, an automated sampling system for selectively sampling the content of a bottle among those present in the storage zone, a loading zone for introducing a new bottle into the automatic device, an unloading zone for collecting a bottle previously present in the storage zone, a bottle conveyor and storage system, configured selectively and individually to transport a bottle from a location in the storage zone to the unloading zone or from the loading zone to a location in the storage zone.

The oven (1) of the present invention comprises a body (2), at least one oven cavity (3), a casing (4) surrounding the oven cavity (3) and at least one opening (5) disposed on the casing (4) that allows delivery of hot and humid air from the oven (1) to the exterior environment, at least one transmitting member (9, 109) that provides the assembly of the carrier (8) on the body (2), at least one discharge pipe (6, 106), one end connected to the opening (5) and the other end to nipple (7, 107) and starting from the casing (4) maintains the successive contact of the metal surfaces to each other thus providing the flow of electricity by delivering a probable electric leak to the ground for grounding the oven (1).

The present invention relates to a heatable covering system for floors, ceilings and walls and to a method producing a heatable covering system. The covering system comprises covering panels which comprise at least on one longitudinal edge coupling means in order to be able to join covering panels with each other, wherein the covering panels are provided with electric heating means, built by at least one electrical conductive layer and a therein embedded enforcement layer, and which comprise electric contacting means.

A cooking system that utilizes vibration to improve the convenience of preparing food and the quality of the finished product. The system uses a vibrating device coupled to a cooking vessel with a pad and/or isolation blocks disposed between the vibrator and the vessel. The cooking system can be adapted to prepare specific foods in specific quantities, such as popcorn in pre-packaged containers.
