Abstract
PCT No. PCT/DE78/00027 Sec. 371 Date June 15, 1979 Sec. 102(e) Date June 11, 1979 PCT Filed Oct. 16, 1978 In dental treatment apparatuses with a plurality of instruments which are connected to a supply component across spirally coiled supply lines attached to the apparatus at an upper level, and with a mounting for the instruments disposed at a lower level, it is required that the instruments be able to be removed from and inserted into the mounting comfortably and without mutual disturbance. It is proposed that the supply component is at an upper level, that each supply line has its individual point of attachment to the apparatus in its connection to the supply component and is spirally coiled in its entire length from the supply component at an upper level to the instrument mounted on a lower level, that the coil formed by each supply line from the connection to the supply component to the instrument runs freely suspended in an approximately straight line at a slight angle to the vertical, and that the instruments are suspended, pointing downward, in slots in the instrument mounting by means of molded parts on the end of the supply lines by the instruments or on the instruments themselves.
