  • Fig. 26 Further, it is clear that in the embodiment shown here, the carrier 18 is not an integral part of the holder 1, but is a separate insert part which is inserted into the holder 1.
  • the front wall 19 is formed here on the holder 1. If the carrier 19 is an integral part of the holder 1, the front wall 19 is naturally formed on the holder 18.
  • the illustrated embodiment can in Fig. 26 Incidentally, recognize that the top of the distribution element 6 'in the connection region 14 at the level of the lowest point of the recesses 11 in the loading area 7' extends.
  • the Active substance fluid can enter the recesses 11 on the face side.
  • the accessibility of water under the edge of the front wall 19 is restricted as much as possible.
  • One recognizes in Fig. 26 Moreover, further that between the bottom of the holder 1 and the surface of the distribution element 6 'in the connection region 14 in the free areas results in a considerable vertical distance.
  • Fig. 25 finally shows that, as already explained, the top of the distribution element 6 'in the connection area 14 for the active substance fluid is smooth, but otherwise may have individual increases for technical reasons, technical connection and sealing reasons.
  • Fig. 25 shows as from sealing-technical reasons existing increase that in the connection area 14 on the one longitudinal wheel 13 facing side of the connection point 10, in particular the spacers 16 on this page comprising a slightly upwardly projecting from the top protective edge 20 is formed.
