Detergent pack comprising a combination of a malodour-generating water-soluble cleaning pouch, comprising a liquid composition and an enveloping film material, and a packaging container therefor wherein: a) the liquid composition comprises a first perfume; and b) the packaging container comprises a hot melt adhesive adhered to an internal wall thereof, the hot melt comprising an aldehyde-comprising perfume. There is also provided a method of preventing or reducing malodour in the interior of a p...

Compositions, articles and methods are provided for supplying fabric care benefits to clothing or fabrics in an automated washing machine and by manual washing. The fabric care compositions preferably have less than about 5% detergent surfactants, more preferably less than 3%, even more preferably less than 1% and are most preferably free of detergent surfactants. Similarly, the fabric care compositions preferably have less than about 5% fabric softener actives, more preferably less than 3%, eve...

An electrical conducting strip to form an electrical conducting path between a plurality of terminal posts within a bus bar. The electrical conducting strip is to include a plurality of spaced-apart opening arrangements with each opening arrangement being adapted to connect with a terminal post. Each opening arrangement includes an access opening and an engaging opening. The terminal post is to enter the opening arrangement through the access opening and then move longitudinally until the side w...

An electrical bus strip to receive a terminal post comprises (a) an elongated metallic bus strip; (b) a contact integral with and spaced from said strip, said contact protruding toward a plane defined by said strip, and (c) two pairs of arms having first ends integral with said strip and second ends integral with said contact to support the contact for resiliently yieldable movement normal to said planes in response to insertion of a terminal post into position between the arms of each pair and ...

A bus bar constructed to bend connector posts and make electrical contact with them at three loci of bar points. In vertical section, vertical lines between first and second bus contact points are spaced from third bus contact points adjacent said vertical lines by a distance less than the thickness of the posts, the locus defined by said vertical lines corresponding generally with a locus of post centerlines.

A water-soluble pouch suitable for use in machine dishwashing and which comprises a plurality of compartments in generally superposed or superposable relationship, each containing one or more detergent active or auxiliary components, and wherein the pouch has a volume of from about 5 to about 70 ml and a longitudinal/transverse aspect ratio in the range from about 2:1 to about 1:8, preferably from about 1:1 to about 1:4. The water-soluble pouch allows for optimum delivery of dishwashing detergen...

A bus bar for electrically coupling a plurality of spaced-apart parallel terminal pins arranged in banks is constructed of flat strips of electrically conductive material. Internal longitudinal slits divide a portion of the strip into sections with every other section being deformed to form a first generally S-shaped bend and the remaining sections being deformed to form a second generally S-shaped bend oppositely directed from the first bend to define with a first bend a pair of passages capabl...

A flexible strip bus bar for connecting a plurality of electrical contact posts, such as those found on a wire wrap board is disclosed. The invention comprises an elongated conducting strip of 0.008 berryllium copper, and has a number of biasing straps attached thereto for securing the strip and posts together. Preferably the straps are an integral part of the strips formed by pressing a portion of the face of the strip outwardly with a die. Insulation may be wrapped about any portion of the str...
