Abstract

See full text

The dental handpiece consists of a housing with a handle and a turbine that can be operated with compressed gas or compressed air. The rotational movement of the turbine driven by compressed gas is transmitted to the dental tool via a rotor shaft and a chuck. The rotor shaft is rotatably supported by at least one axial groove ball bearing. The radial rigidity required for operating a dental handpiece is achieved by axially preloading the ball bearings. Projections on the housing and the shaft disc of the at least one axial groove ball bearing allow the axial groove ball bearing to be used as radial groove ball bearings. The proposed design of the dental handpiece exhibits little power loss or frictional loss in comparison to dental handpieces with radial groove ball bearings, and slip and drilling friction components can be virtually completely prevented in particular.
