摘要： The invention is directed to a device for the manufacture of bristle products, in particular toothbrushes, with a feed unit for precut lengths of upstanding bristles arranged loosely in a supply duct, the bristles being routed directly to a picker segment picking up the bristles. The device includes a driven conveyor at the end of the supply duct close to the picker segment, or a further processing station.

摘要： An apparatus is disclosed for adjusting an active length of a plurality of interwoven support elements of a weight bearing surface to conform to contours of a user's anatomy. The weight bearing surface overlies a frame to which the plurality of interwoven support elements are connected. The apparatus includes an adjustment mechanism connected to one of the plurality of interwoven support elements, wherein the adjustment mechanism is attached or releasably attached to the frame. The adjustment mechanism allows the active length of the connected interwoven support element to change as a user bears upon the weight bearing surface, thereby conforming the weight bearing surface to the contours of a user's anatomy. In another aspect, a method for adjusting an active length of at least some of a plurality of interwoven support elements of a weight bearing surface to conform to contours of a user's anatomy is disclosed.

摘要： A device for manufacturing brush products, in particular toothbrushes, with a bristle magazine having a feed chute for receiving filaments of precut length arranged in a dense array transverse to the longitudinal axis of the bristle magazine. The feed chute has a discharge opening which is bounded by a bristle picker closing the discharge opening from outside, and serves to feed filaments to a recess provided on the bristle picker. The recess receives only a predetermined quantity of filaments, combining them into tufts which are then transferred to further stations for further processing. According to the invention, the feed chute has a magazine bottom on which the discharge opening is formed. The magazine bottom is further shaped in an arcuate configuration tapering essentially in the direction of the discharge opening. This produces a steady filament flow in which dead zones are not allowed to develop.
