Thanks for your help! I tried your suggestion like this: 

 	def get_vocab(self):
 		pc = getToolByName(self, 'portal_catalog')
 		query = {}
 		query['path'] = {'query' : '/'.join(self.getPhysicalPath()) 
+ '/vocabulary', 'depth' : 1}
 		query['object_provides'] = ICategorizerVocabTerm.__identifier__
 		brains = pc.searchResults(**query)

 		dl = DisplayList()
 		for term in brains:
 				dl.add(term['id'], term['Title'])

 		return dl


but get no results with this method either... When I omit the "depth" 
paramether, I get results though. So there should be another way?!

Thanks, 
Johannes
