Abstract: Dental handpiece with an instrument section (1) for accepting a dental tool and with a second, hose section (2) which is capable of being detachably coupled to the instrument section and to which a media delivery line for the delivery of certain supply media for operation of the dental tool is capable of being linked, said dental tool being operated by a drive motor (3). The drive motor comprises a stator (9) and a rotor (5). The rotor (5) of the drive motor (3) is arranged in the instrument section (1) separate from the stator (9), the stator (9) of the drive motor (3) being arranged in the hose section (2). By virtue of the partial integration, in accordance with the invention, of the drive motor, the weight of the dental handpiece is diminished and the ease of handling of the dental handpiece is improved. In addition, higher working speeds of the dental tool can be achieved.

Abstract: Motorised handpiece, more particularly for used by dentists or dental technicians, the rotary movement of a motor being transmitted to a tool which can be clamped with the aid of a clamping mechanism. To this end, the rotary movement of the motor is transmitted via an integrally formed shaft to the clamped tool, both the motor and the clamping mechanism being mounted on this integrally formed shaft. As a result of the use of an integrally formed shaft, it is possible to dispense with superfluous ball bearings for mounting the shaft and no mechanical driver system is required in order to couple two separate shafts together, for example.

Abstract: A control arrangement for dental furnaces, especially microprocessor-controlled preheating furnaces or ovens with controlled heating and with limited rate in the rise of the heating temperature.The control arrangement for dental furnaces implements the temperature control or rise on one or more, preferably three program tiers or levels, with one or more temperature steps or phases being either unrestrictedly or controllably programmed, or implemented on one or more temperature steps in a controlled programming.
