Patent number: 12042344Abstract: A medical or dental treatment device comprises a tool retainer, a measuring coil and an evaluation device. The tool retainer can be connected to a plurality of different tools. The measuring coil can be supplied with a periodic electrical energy. The evaluation device can be connected to the measuring coil for detecting whether a tool is connected to the treatment device or which of a plurality of tools is connected to the treatment device. On the basis of an electromagnetic (e.g., inductive) coupling between the tool accommodated in the tool retainer and the measuring coil supplied with the periodic energy, a periodic measurement signal specific to each tool can be generated and assigned by the evaluation device to the tool. The evaluation device determines the phase shift of the electrical voltage and of the electric current of the periodic measurement signal.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2020Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: W&H Dentalwerk Bürmoos GmbHInventors: Andreas Brandstaetter, Christian Pruckner, Theresa Auer, Johann Eibl
