Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de suture par cycle et de ficelage de nodule caractérisé par un passage arqué fixe, rainuré ou évidé pratiqué dans un cadre de support configuré de manière adéquate afin de recevoir une aiguille incurvée avec fil, ainsi que des dispositifs d'insertion d'aiguille par friction destinés à permettre l'insertion sélective de l'aiguille et son entraînement dans une direction rotative ou deux directions rotatives de manière à suturer une blessure avec le fil. L'articulation sélective du cadre et le déplacement et l'entraînement de l'aiguille dans le passage par le positionnement des dispositifs d'insertion de l'aiguille par friction par rapport à l'aiguille sont normalement effectués par manipulation d'un appareil mettant en route la poignée d'un pistolet présentant un tube de transmission qui monte le cadre et le passage dans un rapport d'articulation, puis fait tourner et s'articule par rapport à la poignée du pistolet tout en présentant différents éléments opérationnels assemblés avec les dispositifs d'insertion de l'aiguille par friction dans le passage. Selon au moins un mode de réalisation, les éléments de réglage de la direction de l'aiguille se trouvent dans le cadre en coopération avec les dispositifs sélectionnés dans le passage afin de déterminer la direction de la rotation de l'aiguille d'après la manipulation d'un élément opérationnel de mise en contact placé sur l'appareil opérationnel. Font également l'objet de cette invention des dispositifs auxiliaires de manipulation du fil ou d'incrémentation et de ficelage d'un nodule.

Patent CA-2468289-C (CA)
Inventor: COX IAN A
IPC: G02C7/04
Filed: 2002-10-18
Granted: 2009-06-09
Abstract: A method of designing a contact lens or other correction for providing presbyopia correction to a patient relies on wavefront aberration measurement data for providing a best form correction. Preferably the correction is in the form of a multifocal translating style alternating vision contact lens or a simultaneous vision style correcting lens. A method for designing a correction for improving a person's vision is directed to correcting higher order aberrations in such a manner that a residual amount of the higher-order rotationally symmetric aberration is greater than a residual amount of the higher-order rotationally asymmetric aberration after the correction. A design method according to the invention is directed to correcting asymmetric higher order aberrations induced by decentering of a multifocal contact lens that has residual spherical aberration which provides increased depth of field.

Title: Method of rendering text on an output device
Inventor: KLASSEN GERHARD
IPC: H04Q7/32
Filed: 2005-02-24
Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: A method of rendering text on an output device using a pre-developed image of a custom font. An image file defines an image of a custom developed character set. The custom character set may be developed off-line using graphics development tools. Associated character information enables the location of specific characters within the image. When a text character is output to a display or other output device, a custom font module locates the text character within the image and defines a subimage that contains the text character. The subimage is rendered upon the output device, thereby producing an image of the text character.

Abstract: An apparatus for guiding a moving, flexible, tensed casting belt on a continuous metal casting machine along a substantially oval path. The continuous metal casting machine having an entrance-end, an exit-end and a moving-mold casting region extending from the entrance-end to the exit-end. The apparatus includes a non-rotating fluid pillow structure at the entrance end of the machine. The fluid pillow structure supports the mold-width of the casting belt. The apparatus includes two narrow shoulder-pulleys at the entrance end of the casting machine which are adjacent to opposite sides of the entrance-end fluid-pillow structure. Each pulley supports a portion of the belt outside of the moving-mold cashing region. Each pulley guides the belt around the fluid-pillow structure as the belt revolves along its substantially oval path. The apparatus also facilitates the sealing, controlled-venting and recovery of pressurized fluids used to levitate the belt about a fluid-pillow structure.
