Abstract: A therapy device (1) for treating a body part particularly a big toe of a patient, comprises: a base body (2) with a surface (21L, 21R) for receiving a portion of the body of the patient adjacent to the body part; a moving segment (3) having a support surface (321) for receiving the body part; and a drive unit (5) for pivoting the moving segment (3) back and forth relative to the base body (2). The drive unit (5) is fixed to the moving segment (3) and pivotable back and forth relative to the base body (2) together with the moving segment (3).

Abstract: A device (100) for firing a projectile at a target body, in particular a fluid projectile or solid projectile, comprises a hand-held unit (100) for firing the projectile, the hand-held unit (100) comprises a propulsion drive (114) for accelerating the projectile and a distance measuring device (112) for measuring a distance between the hand-held unit (100) and the target body. The device (100) also comprises an energy store (120) for operating the propulsion drive (114), the propulsion drive (114) comprising a control unit (115), whereby the propulsion (114) is controllable in dependence on the distance measured.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for shooting a projectile at a target body, in particular a fluid projectile or solid projectile, which apparatus comprises a hand-held device for shooting the projectile, wherein the hand-held device comprises a drive for accelerating the projectile and a distance-measuring device for measuring a distance between the hand-held device and the target body. The apparatus also comprises a stored energy source for operating the drive, wherein the drive comprises a control unit, by means of which the drive can be controlled in accordance with the measured distance.

Abstract: A storage unit includes a nozzle unit, a storage space holding an active substance, an openable closure element sealing the storage space, a store output that includes the nozzle unit and a nozzle entry space having a circumferential inner wall arranged between a nozzle inlet and the closure element and a propellant charge and a firing charge for firing the propellant charge in order to force the active substance out of the storage space through the store output into a free environment, where the closure element is configured to remain attached to the storage unit and not interfere with the discharge of the active substance.

Abstract: The apparatus (1e, 1f) according to the invention has a storage tank (5) which is or can be filled with an active substance (3), a pyrotechnic charge (6; 39) in a first end region (9) of the storage tank (5), a cartridge-case base (13) which can be driven by propellant gases of the fired charge (6; 39) in order to drive the active substance (3) out, and has a unit (7) for atomizing the active substance (3) being driven out, and at least one sensor (35a; 35b) which interacts with the charge (6; 39) in order to initiate the latter. The atomizer unit (7) is formed as an atomizer pipe (7) having a plurality of outlet nozzles (15) in the pipe casing in order to fill a spatial region (14) with a mist of the material of the active substance (3). One (18) of the ends of the atomizer pipe (7) is arranged in a second tank end region (19), facing away from the first and extending from the latter. The apparatus is distinguished by a compact and economical configuration with good automatic filling of a space with mist.
