Abstract: A device for abrasive-blasting of workpieces including a chamber (which is to be evacuated during operation) having a first opening, a nozzle pipe unit with a nozzle pipe which can be inserted through the first opening into the chamber, and a container for the accommodation of blasting material, in which case the container for the accommodation of blasting material is mounted, or can be mounted, to the nozzle pipe unit in such a manner that the blasting material can flow freely out of the container into an inlet of the nozzle pipe unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for testing external influences on biological systems by measuring “ultraweak photon emissions (biophotons) and “delayed luminescence”, based on non-local and different changes of photon emissions on different points of the tissue through exposure to the external influence. The changes can vary to such an extent that the slightest differences in the influences can be can be registered with the highest sensitivity.

Abstract: This device for the treatment of surfaces is specifically conceived as an addition to motor-driven hand tools. It includes a device mounting that can be installed securely in position on a housing component of a motorized driving unit in such a way as to be removable at will. The device also includes a tool mounting, which is designed specifically for an instrument that rubs and polishes surfaces. The device further includes a peripheral component, extending from the center, which is connected to the tool mounting in a manner such that the turning of the peripheral component, around a rotation axis, of this peripheral component sets the tool mounting in motion. The tool mounting is mounted in relation to the device mounting, in a manner such that it can be tilted, and a mechanism is envisioned, which will basically prevent the tool mounting from turning about on the rotation axis of the peripheral component, and which will simultaneously allow for the tilting of the tool reception.

Abstract: An apparatus to process, in particular, curved surfaces using one or more grinding or polishing tools which includes a housing (2) having a drive system (3, 20, 19, 12) powering at least one tool seat (1) particularly for a grinding or polishing tool (W) into rotation about a longitudinal axis (4). For the purpose of multi-sided pivoting displacement of the axis of rotation (4) within a predetermined angular range (&agr;), the tool seat (1) rests pivotably in a holder (5) of the housing (2), the holder (5) including a shell (7) having an outer contour in the shape of a spherical segment and being pivotably received in an inner contour of a seat (8) also in the shape of a spherical segment. The drive system (3, 20, 19, 12) includes a pivoting ball-joint (6) coupling it to the tool seat (1) in order to drive the seat into rotation in every pivoted position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and a method for abrasive blasting, in particular for the sand-blasting of relatively small workpieces, for example in the hobby sector (model building). The device comprises a chamber (2), which is closed in an essentially airtight manner on all sides and has at least one, and preferably a plurality of, closable openings (3), it being possible to evacuate the chamber. A blasting pipe unit (5), which can be introduced into the chamber via one of the openings and which has an inlet (12) for the blasting agent, an inlet (13) for air and an outlet opening (14) for the blasting agent, is connected to a blasting-agent container (8) via a feed line (7). Both the method and the device operate using subatmospheric pressure, so that it is possible, for example, to use a commercially available vacuum cleaner for evacuating the chamber.
