Handling device for an apparatus for the additive manufacture of three-dimensional objects, which handling device is equipped to handle an additively manufactured three-dimensional object, comprising: a handling chamber, which comprises a handling chamber interior delimited by one or more handling chamber walls, wherein at least one handling chamber wall comprises an access opening allowing access, in particular for a user, into the handling chamber interior, wherein the at least one access opening is openable and closable via a thereto assigned sliding-door-like closure element, which is mounted such that it is slidingly movable in a vertical direction between an open setting, in which the sliding-door-like closure element opens up the at least one access opening, and a closed setting, in which the sliding-door-like closure element closes off the access opening, relative to the handling chamber wall comprising the access opening.

A washing apparatus for a 3D-printed article is provided for the removal of support material from the article. The apparatus includes a glove isolation cabinet with a liquid-discharging nozzle to enable an operator to spray an article with a washing liquid, and a drain. A first filter arrangement receives liquid discharged from the cabinet. The washing liquid drains through the first filter arrangement under the influence of gravity but the first filter arrangement is located in a trough in which washing liquid that has passed through the first filter arrangement accumulates whereby, in use, one or more filters of the first filter arrangement are submerged to ensure filtered-out residue remains submerged in the washing liquid. A pump is provided to pump liquid that has passed through the first filter arrangement through a second filter arrangement adapted to filter out solid material equal to or greater than 5 m in size.

A shielded containment cabinet device for use for the cleaning under high visibility and high protection for user, while using reduction flow pressurized water for cleaning of materials.

A device for mitigating debris travel including a debris barrier, a support-frame, and a ceiling-attachment. The debris barrier includes a ceiling-opening-interface, a closeable-user-opening, an inside-surface, and an outside surface. The support-frame is fixed to the ceiling-opening-interface of the debris barrier. The support-frame is configured to hold open the ceiling-opening-interface, and further configured to hangingly support the debris barrier. The ceiling-attachment is fixed to the support-frame. The ceiling-attachment is configured to couple with a drop-ceiling, and the support-frame is shaped to seal against the support-frame.

A cleaning system for use with a filter is described herein. The cleaning system includes a housing including a main enclosure defining an interior sized to receive the filter, a collection vessel coupled in communication with the housing, and a nozzle configured to direct a stream of air towards the filter to dislodge particles from the filter. A pneumatic suction device is coupled in communication with the collection vessel, wherein the pneumatic suction device is configured to draw the particles dislodged from the filter towards the collection vessel.

An enclosure for containment and removal of hazardous material from objects is described, having a frame comprising a plurality of bars and a plurality of joints, each joint being releasably connectable to at least two bars, a flexible bag attachable to the frame, the bag being at least in part transparent, and comprising a resealable seam, and at least one adjusting device for tightening or loosening the bag on the frame. Usually, the enclosure, in use, is a negative pressure enclosure. The enclosure is particularly useful for containing and removing asbestos, especially from pipes. Also described are methods for removal of hazardous material from an object and methods for isolating an animal having an infectious and/or contagious disease using the enclosures.

The invention relates to a portable clean room for filling at least one medicine container, located in the clean room with at least one active substance, wherein: the clean room is enclosed in an airtight manner by an at least partially flexible shell, the shell has at least one active substance connection region which can be opened, and a manipulation device and at least one medicine container are located in the clean room. According to the invention, the shell has at least one actuation connection region, wherein the manipulation device has at least one filling device which can be coupled to the active substance connection region for introducing at least one active substance into the at least one medicine container arranged in the clean room, and the manipulation device can be actuated by means of an actuation device via the actuation connection region of the shell, and is designed to displace the filling devicerelative to the at least one medicine containerand/or to actuate the filling device.

A port assembly (100) is generally disclosed that has an annular port ring (110) configured for placement in a barrier wall (10). The annular port ring (110) defines a port opening (20) extending from a first end (22) to a second end (24) and an annular sealing surface (118) about the port opening (20) on the second end (24). A port cover (120) is mechanically coupleable to the annular port ring (110). The port cover (120) defines an annular mating surface (124) configured to couple to the annular sealing surface (118) of the annular port ring (110). A manually actuatable handle (130) is in mechanical communication with the port cover (120). The handle (130) extends from the first end (22) of the annular port ring (110) away from the second end (24).
