An articulated rod adjustable in flexion-extension (10) comprises a pair of arms (20), a pair of outer and inner cover plates (31, 32), and two rotation pins (24) engaged in through holes (23) of the pair of arms (20) and in through holes (33, 34) of the pair of cover plates (31, 32), to form a polycentric joint (11) articulating the pair of arms (20) in mutual rotation, wherein the rotation comprises a flexion rotation direction and an extension rotation direction, as well as two adjusting pins (27) integral with the arms (20), wherein the articulated rod (10) comprises a pair of discs (40), provided on at least a perimeter portion with a plurality of interlocking teeth (42) and a position indicating cursor (43), and comprises a locking element (50) adapted to engage with the plurality of interlocking teeth (42) of the pair of discs (40) and with at least the outer cover plate (31), and preferably also with the inner cover plate (32), wherein the discs (40) are axially hinged with the rotation pins (24) and are arranged partially overlapping on parallel rotation planes, wherein each disc (40) bears a slot (44) shaped as an arc of a circle, which limits the movement of the adjusting pin (27) integral with each arm (20).

Clothespin (10) made in a single mold of plastic material, consisting of two tightening elements (11) and an elastic means (20), wherein each tightening element (11) comprises a front portion forming a jaw (12) and a rear portion forming a lever arm (13), wherein the elastic means (20) comprises a first fork arch (21) comprising a concave portion (211) and two ends (212), and two flex portions (22), each extending one of the two ends (212) towards the two jaws (12), wherein the elastic means (20) comprises two second fork arches (23), and wherein each front portion forming the jaw (12) comprises a first recess (14), which comprises a concave portion (141) with a concavity facing a respective concave portion (141) of the respective first recess (14) of the other front portion forming the jaw (12).

A system (20) for hearing assistance to a user, said system comprising:- a microphone array (23, 24) providing audio signal,- at least one hearing device (28),- an eye-tracking device (21) configured to provide user's gaze direction and stabilization data,- a vergence device configured to provide user's vergence data,- a processing unit (26) comprising:an attention estimation module (260) configured to generate attention data of the user representative of a point of attention of the user based on the user's gaze direction and stabilization data and vergence data,an audio beamforming module (262) configured to generate a beamformed audio signal intended to enhance sounds for the user through said at least one hearing device (28) based on the audio signals of the microphone array (23, 24) and the attention data of the user representative of a point of attention of the user.

Method for filling a plurality of containers with a bulk material, the containers being movable along an advancement path in the following order: from an inlet area, to a second filling position, to a second resting position, to a first resting position, to a first filling position, and to an outlet area, the method comprising the following steps:a. having a plurality of containers in the inlet area, a container in the second filling position, and a container in the first filling position;b. filling or continuing to fill the container positioned in the second filling position up to a predefined level, and simultaneously starting to fill the container positioned in the first filling position;c. continuing to fill the container positioned in the first filling position, and simultaneously advancing the container from the second filling position to the first resting position, advancing a container from the inlet area to the second resting position, and advancing a container from the inlet area to the second filling position;d. continuing to fill the container in the first filling position up to a predefined level, and simultaneously starting to fill the container in the second filling position;e. continuing to fill the container in the second filling position, and simultaneously advancing the container in the first filling position and the container in the first resting position towards the outlet area, and advancing the container from the second resting position to the first filling position;f. continuing to fill the container in the second filling position up to a predefined level, and simultaneously starting to fill the container in the first filling position;g. repeating steps c to f.
