Title: Haptic for accommodating intraocular lens
Inventor: CALI DOUGLAS S
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 2007-12-07
Granted: 2013-10-17
Abstract: An intraocular lens is disclosed, with an optic that changes shape in response to a deforming force exerted by the zonules of the eye. A haptic (120) supports the optic around its equator and couples the optic to the capsular bag of the eye. The region of contact between the optic and the haptic extends into the edge of the optic (130), similar to the interface between a bicycle tire and the rim that holds it in place. The haptic may be stiffer than the optic. The haptic may have the same refractive index as the optic. The haptic may include a saddle-shaped portion in contact with the adjustable optic, with a convex profile along an optical axis; and a concave profile in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis.

Title: Storage tank for a cryogenic fluid with a partitioned cryogen space
Inventor: HARPER GREGORY CHARLES
IPC: F17C6/00
Filed: 2008-02-28
Granted: 2014-03-20
Abstract: A cryogenic storage tank comprises a partition that divides a cryogen space into a main storage space and an auxiliary space. A valve disposed inside the cryogen space is associated with a first fluid passage through the partition. The valve comprises a valve member that is actuatable by fluid forces within the cryogen space. A second fluid passage through the partition comprises a restricted flow area that is dimensioned to have a cross-sectional flow area that is smaller than that of a fill conduit such that there is a detectable increase in back-pressure when the main storage space is filled with liquefied gas. A preferred method comprises establishing a vapor-filled ullage space when the main storage space is being vented and re-filled with cryogenic fluid, by draining liquefied gas from the auxiliary space through the first fluid passage under the influence of a vapor pressure differential permitted by the partition. If the vapor pressure differential reverses during re-filling, the valve can close to preserve the vapor-filled ullage volume. Re-filling is stopped when an increase in back pressure is detected during re-filling.

Title: Cornice cement applicator
Inventor: LUVARA AARON
IPC: E04F21/02
Filed: 2008-07-18
Granted: 2014-05-08
Abstract: A cornice cement applicator has a reservoir for holding cornice cement and at least one dispensing nozzle for depositing a bead of cornice cement in a desired location along the cornice. As the applicator is passed along the cornice, a piston or other actuator causes ejection of cornice cement from the reservoir out the dispensing nozzle(s). Appropriate nozzle design provides for deposition of a bead of cornice having sufficient cement but without surplus, neatly and at a substantially faster rate than can be achieved by manual trowelling. Such an applicator with two dispensing nozzles spaced apart by about the width of the cornice can simultaneously deposit a bead of cement along both rear edges of the cornice in a single pass, saving time. The reservoir can be rapidly and simply charged by submerging the nozzles in cement and withdrawing the piston to cause intake of cement.

Title: Pressure differential metering device
Inventor: WEINGARTEN ZVI
IPC: G01L7/00
Filed: 2009-03-23
Granted: 2013-09-26
Abstract: The pressure differential metering device of the present invention is generally deployed as a flow restrictor placed in the valve inlet so it will create a desired differential pressure to signal a pilot valve, for example, that drives the main valve to limit the flow rate through the valve. The pressure differential metering device of the present invention is deployed across the valve inlet port, with its central axis perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow. The flow restriction element of the present invention may be configured in a variety of sizes to create a desired restrictive cross section to the flow, thereby creating the required differential pressure signals for the valve instrumentation and control. The flow restriction element is configured with upstream and downstream apertures that are the openings to passageways to the corresponding upstream and downstream end-ports. The end-ports provide connection arrangements for the control system of the main valve instrumentation.
