Abstract: The anchorage for dental prosthetics includes a male member which is attachable to a tooth and comprises, in a preferred embodiment, a ball head, and a female member which is attachable to a dental prosthesis. The female member comprises an internal thread and a lamellar insert having a threaded portion for receiving and retaining the ball head, the retention force of the lamellar insert being continuously adjustable by rotation thereof. A female member of this kind with a screwed lamellar insert allows a fine adjustment of the retention of the male member in accordance with the actual conditions.

Abstract: A hair clipper, particularly for incorporation in a battery powered electric dry shaver, comprising first and second mutually slidingly reciprocable and inherently slightly resilient toothed cutters resiliently urged to assume a similar curvature to one another along the direction of reciprocation to tend to render uniform the pressure distribution therebetween.
