    摘要: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for irradiating tumor tissue (3) of a patient (10) by means of an ion beam (2). For that purpose, the apparatus has a deflecting device (1) for the ion beam (2) for slice-wise and area-wise scanning of the tumor tissue (3) and an ion beam energy control device for slice-wise and depth-wise scanning of the ion beam (2). An electromechanically driven ion-braking device (11, 12) is provided as a depth-wise scanning adaptation apparatus (5) for adapting the range of the ion beam (2) and has faster depth-wise adaptation than the energy control device of an accelerator. The movement of a patient is monitored by means of a movement detection device (7) for detecting a temporal and positional change in the location of the tumor tissue (3) in a treatment space (8). A control device controls the deflecting device (1) and the depth-wise adaptation apparatus (5) for adjusting the ion beam direction and ion beam range, respectively, when scanning the tumor tissue (3) in the course of temporal and positional change in the location of the tumor tissue (3) in the treatment space (8).

    摘要: In the case of an apparatus for tilting an object about at least one axis, in particular an optical element, such as a lens (9), the object in the case of an optical element is supported by an inner ring (7) and connected via at least three bearing points to a mount or an outer ring (8). Tilting of the object (9) is adjustable by means of adjusting elements. A plurality of links (1-6) are provided as adjusting elements, some of which, as supporting links (1-4), bear the inner ring (7) with respect to the outer ring (8) in such a way that the inner ring (7) can rotate only about two mutually perpendicular tilting axes (x, y axis). Two further links, as adjusting links (5, 6), support torsional moments about the mutually perpendicular tilting axes. The tilting angles are adjustable by adjusting the adjusting links (5, 6).
