Cor, the abstract has no bearings whatsoever on the specification and surely on the claims. It is rare that an abstract limits the claims, in some cases the specification might, but I have had countless going with the PTO, where they wanted to hold me (and often did) to the letter of a prior art claim, even if the inventor in his wildest dream did not anticipate the claims I was trying to get. That is one reason that wording claims is so critical, and lawyers will tell you that they on purpose word the claims extremely broadly in the first "go", and then, if necessary, they narrow these down during the examination process.
