Patent number: 9532859Abstract: An electronic register device for recording movements of the lower jaw of a person relative to the upper jaw of the person, the device having a bite fork for recording a position of the upper jaw relative to reference points on the head of the person, wherein the bite fork is designed to receive a plastic compound for recording an impression of the dentition of the upper jaw. The register device further includes a lower-jaw attachment for recording movements of the lower jaw relative to the upper jaw. In addition, the register device has a reference body, wherein the register device is designed so that the reference body can be connected in a fixed position to the bite fork. The bite fork and the reference body connected thereto in a fixed position are designed in such a way that both the impression and also the reference body can be recorded by a scanning procedure. In this way, it is possible to establish a relationship between the scanned impression and the movement data recorded by the register device.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: KALTENBACH & VOIGT GMBHInventor: Hans-Walter Lang

Publication number: 20100143859Abstract: A dental face-bow comprising a base part, two side arms that extend from the base part and two positioning elements, for example ear pieces for positioning the face-bow on the head of the patient. The positioning elements are situated on the side arms and can be displaced in relation to the side arms. The face-bow is also provided with a displacement device which is used to simultaneously displace the two positioning elements in relation to the side arms. To drive the positioning elements, a dial, which is situated on the base part, can be used for example to turn a flexible shaft that is rotatably mounted inside the two side arms. the two ends of the shaft are equipped with gears that co-operate with gear rods on the positioning elements. This arrangement permits the face-bow to be placed on a patient extremely gently, as there is in particular no relative displacement of the side arms.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2008Publication date: June 10, 2010Applicant: KALTENBACH & VOIGT GMBHInventors: Hans Walter Lang, Alfred Straka
