The invention relates to a device for diverting mechanical oscillations, which may be made to oscillate longitudinally along a first axis at an oscillation introduction point and transfer such an osculation into an oscillation along a second axis at an oscillation decoupling point, wherein the first axis and the second axis form an angle to each other. The device is essentially characterised in having a longitudinally curved oscillation element with an introduction point at the one end thereof and a decoupling point at the other end thereof, wherein the device is designed such that the oscillation element oscillates transversally at the introduction point and the decoupling point when the oscillation introduction point is subjected to an oscillation.
