  • Electrode arrangement for a dielectrically limited gas discharge
    Patent number: 9330890
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flexible flat electrode arrangement for a dielectrically limited gas discharge, comprising a central region (3), an edge region, and a flat electrode (14) which conducts a high-voltage potential and which is embedded in a flat dielectric that forms an upper face (10) and a contact face (6). The invention allows the active surface of the electrode arrangement to be matched to the size of a surface to be treated in that the flat dielectric is in the form of a flat strip (1) wound into a spiral at least in the edge region, and the electrode (14) is formed by at least one electric conductor which runs in the longitudinal direction of the wound strip (1) and which leads into an end surface (13) of the strip (1).

  • Method for treating human or animal hair and apparatus for carrying out the method
    Patent number: 9038645
    Abstract: In order to treat human or animal hair fixedly arranged on a sopport, hair is divided into strands. The divided strands are subjected to a dielectric plasma treatment by drawing an apparatus connected to a high voltage source (8) through the strands. The apparatus can be in the form of tongs or have a comb-like structure.
