The upper base plate is attached to an upper edge of each of the first and second panels, and the lower base plate is attached to a lower edge of each of the first and second panels. A snap-fit portion is disposed at a side edge portion of at least one of the first panel and the second panel.

A transport and storage system, for servicing of a number of treatment and care areas in a hospital, is provided since there to each treatment and care area is connected a transport route, which is reserved for transport of clean goods to or from a treatment and care area and a transport route, which is reserved for transport of non-clean goods to or from the treatment and care area, where the two transport routes are separated and a partition is provided between the transport routes and the treatment and care areas and where in said partition is a lock gate and the transport routes include a conveyor to containers, which conveyor is connected to the lock gate since the container has a container brim and the lock gate has a, to the container brim, enclosing lock opening.

The invention relates to a support arm system (10) for movably holding at least one medical device, including at least one movably supported support arm (18, 20, 22, 24) which is configured to hold the at least one medical device, having at least one load detection device (26) which is configured to detect the respective load data of the support arm system (10) during usage thereof; in particular configured by moving the support arm (18, 20, 22, 24), and which is formed with at least one storage device (46) which is configured to store the detected load data. Further, the invention relates to a method for operating a support arm system (10) and method for designing a support arm system (10).

What is presented is a fluid fitting used in a facility that has a plurality of surfaces and a source of fluid pressure. The fluid fitting comprises a mounting component, a conduit adapter, a port, and a fluid management device. The mounting component makes the fluid fitting mountable on the external side of the surface. The conduit adapter is connectable to the fluid handling conduit on the internal side of the surface. The port has a flow path to the conduit adapter that enables a fluid connection between the conduit adapter and the port. The fluid management device is permanently incorporated in the flow path such that the fluid management device is permanently connected to the port at the fluid dispensing point.
