The invention relates to a shower system with a showerhead (,) which is connected to a mixer faucet (,) for warm and cold water via a water delivery channel (,) and can be operated with various, according to selection, streams. According to the invention, a remote control unit is provided for adjusting the stream of the showerhead in order to enable an easier and more reliable change of the stream. To this end, an actuating element is located at a distance from the showerhead.

A tong-like device for opening jar lids of various sizes, having a retaining handle and an actuating handle that is swivelable on it about a bearing, a drawbar longitudinally adjustable with the retaining handle and having a clamping bracket, and retaining claws provided on the end of the retaining handle; a draw plate (24) is displaceable on the flat drawbar (11) having the clamping bracket (13) and is pressed via a compression spring against a guide wall (22) that is at right angles to the drawbar (11), in such a manner that an impingement region (26) of the draw plate rests against a pressure rib (27) of the actuating handle (1) that is swivelable about a bearing (2).

In order to ergonomically optimize the hand side of combination pliers, whose gripping arms in each case form a mouth jaw on their ends and are in operative connection by means of a joint in such a way that in the case of different activities with the pliers the adaptation of the gripping arms to the anatomy and anthropometry of the human hand is retained, it is proposed that the gripping arms face one another elliptically in the plane thereof and that in the vicinity of the coupling surface to the hand the gripping arms have an elliptical cross-section.

Pliers-type hand tool

Prior universal pliers with two gripping arms (11, 15) and an adjustable jaw have the disadvantage that during adjustment one must change hands while using the pliers which is unfavourable as regards the economic requirements. This disadvantage is obviated by the present invention in that both gripping arms (11, 15) are non-displaceably articulated on one another and one of the two jaws (19) is displaceably mounted with respect to its associated gripping arm (15) at right angles to the jaw opening.

A handle for tools, specifically for screwdrivers, is disclosed. The handle consists of two materials of different hardness, of which the harder material supporting the tool is incompressible under the forces occurring at operational load, whereas the other material permits slight elastic deformations under forces of load. In order to obtain a hand-sympathetic design which nevertheless transmits high torques, the two gripping zones of softer material are situated adjacent to a gripping zone of harder material located between them.
