The invention relates to an operating and display device () for a domestic appliance, comprising operating means for setting at least one parameter of an operating process of the domestic appliance, a light conductor part () for conducting light, a plurality of function symbols (), which each symbolize a respective selectable value of the parameter, and a lighting device () for backlighting the function symbols (), by means of which lighting device the function symbol () associated with the presently selected value of the parameter can be optically distinguished from the other function symbols (), wherein the operating means are designed as touch-sensitive operating means and have a touch-sensitive actuation surface (), which is arranged such as to overlap with the function symbols () and thus the value of the parameter associated with one of the function symbols () can be selected by touching the actuation surface () in an overlap area () that overlaps with one of the function symbols ().

A plug-and-socket connection for water-cooled, current-bearing lines, in particular, to bipolar, high-frequency current conductors for the induction heating of tools is provided. The plug-and-socket connection allows both the electric circuit for the power supply and the circuit for the cooling water to be rapidly and easily closed by hand, or to be interrupted, for example, for maintenance work. The plug-and-socket connection includes a female element and a male element which contain chambers and ducts opening into the chambers that supply the cooling water. The ducts come into contact with one another when the plug-and-socket connection is in the interconnected position. The chambers are in direct contact with the water tubes, which are provided for supplying the cooling water. The backflow of cooling water occurs via a direct connection between a water tube which supplies the male element with cooling water and another water tube which conveys the cooling water away from the female element. Two contact sockets of an electrical plug-and-socket connection are also fixed in the female element, whilst two contact pins which mate with the contact sockets are fixed in the male element. The contact sockets and contact pins are connected to electrical lines for the power supply. The lines are in turn guided through the water tubes.

A device for automatically placing fastening bolts on support surfaces. The fastening bolts (,) have a disc plate (,) covered on their bottom side with a dry, hot-melt-type adhesive (,) receivable by heat application. The device consists of an elongated housing (,) having a bolt-catching device and a bolt feeding channel (,), which is connected to a flexible feeding tube (,) on an end projecting out of the housing. The adhesive bolts (,) with disc plate (,) are fed by air pressure into the housing (,) and through the bolt feeding channel (,) to the catching device (,). There is a cylinder (,) with an induction coil (,) at the end of the bolt feeding channel (,). Upwardly from the inductor are means to press the adhesive bolts (,), which are inside the inductor (,), in the assembly position (,) on the supporting surfaces (,).
