Abstract: A haptic (30, 50, 59, 69, 89) is provided for use in an accommodating intraocular lens. The haptic has multiple filaments, each connected to the edge of the optic (28,48,58,68,88,98,108) at one end. Each filament has a shape that conforms to an equatorial region of the capsular bag (18). The haptic couples the forces exerted by the capsular bag of the eye (10) during accommodation radially to the edge of the optic, produce a diametric expansion or compression of the optic. This diametric motion distorts the optic, producing a change in any or all of the anterior radius, the posterior radius, and the thickness. These changes affect the power of the lens and/or location of the image. The haptic may optionally have a thin membrane (66) joining the filaments at the optic end, and may optionally have a connecting ring (62) that joins the filaments at the end opposite that of the optic.

Abstract: A top-fill hummingbird feeder has a generally upstanding reservoir bottle or liquid container with a large opening at its top end that is closed and sealed by a removable top or cap. The bottom of the bottle or container has a lower bottom opening which can be screw-threaded into a central collar of a feeding basin that has a plurality of feeding ports. A tubular insert is received within the central collar and is configured to be vertically movable between a first position in which fluid is allowed to flow from the liquid container to the basin, and a second position in which fluid flow from the container to the basin is prevented. Movement of the insert between the two positions is effected by pushing the liquid container toward the basin (the closed position) and by pulling the liquid container away from the basin (the open position) Each movement of the insert has an associated "snap" or gives positive physical feedback which the user can feel that assures the user that the desired fluid flow or fluid sealed position has been achieved.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un mécanisme actif à couple élevé pour une articulation orthétique et/ou prothétique utilisant un frein primaire pouvant être réalisé par un amortisseur magnétorhéologique (MR) de rotation intégrant un mécanisme additionnel de frein à friction entraîné par la force de freinage produite par l'amortisseur magnétorhéologique. L'association de l'amortisseur magnétorhéologique au mécanisme de frein à friction permet une augmentation de la densité du couple tout en conservant le niveau de commande de mouvement offert par l'amortisseur magnétorhéologique seul. L'augmentation de la densité du couple obtenue par ce mécanisme actif à couple élevé permet de ramener à un minimum les dimensions du système d'actionnement, c'est-à-dire son diamètre et/ou sa largeur, tout en disposant d'un maximum de couple de freinage. Sous cet angle, le mécanisme de frein à friction est avantageusement disposé autour de l'amortisseur magnétorhéologique, de façon que la dimension de l'ensemble reste la plus petite possible.

Filed: 2009-02-13
Granted: 2017-04-11
Abstract: A method for mapping a physical hybrid automatic repeat request indicator channel (PHICH) is described. The method for mapping a PHICH includes determining an index of a resource element group transmitting a repetitive pattern of the PHICH, according to a ratio of the number of available resource element groups in a symbol in which the PHICH is transmitted and the number of available resource element groups in a first or second OFDM symbol, and mapping the PHICH to the symbol according to the determined index. In transmitting the PHICH, since efficient mapping is performed considering available resource elements varying with OFDM symbols, repetition of the PHICH does not generate interference between neighbor cell IDs and performance is improved.
