Wartenberg wheel : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wartenberg wheel
A Wartenberg wheel, also called a Wartenberg pinwheel or Wartenberg neurowheel, is a medical device for neurological use. It was originally designed by Robert Wartenberg to test nerve reactions (sensitivity) as it rolled systematically across the skin.〔Lehrner J., e.a.: ''Klinische Neuropsychologie: Grundlagen - Diagnostik - Rehabilitation'', Springer, 2005, S. 135, ISBN 3-211-21336-8, (here online )〕 A Wartenberg wheel is generally made of stainless steel with a handle of approximately seven inches in length. The wheel, which has evenly spaced radiating sharp pins, rotates as it is rolled across the flesh. A disposable plastic version is available. Because of hygienic concerns, these devices are rarely used any more.〔Kornhuber E., e.a.: ''Die neurologische Untersuchung'', Birkhäuser, 2005, p. 16, ISBN 3-7985-1444-5, (here online )〕 The Wartenberg wheel is also used as a BDSM or sensation sex toy, sometimes while connected to a violet wand electrical device.〔Matthias T. J. Grimme: ''Das SM-Handbuch.'' Charon-Verlag 2002, ISBN 3-931406-01-6〕 Another version is used in clothing pattern making to transfer markings from fabric to paper, called a pounce wheel. They are similar in shape but have wooden handles. == See also ==
