Title: Ultraviolet cycling oven for polymerization of contact lenses
Inventor: MARTIN WALLACE ANTHONY
IPC: F27D11/08
Filed: 1995-06-09
Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for molding contact lenses by curing polymerizable compositions in suitably dimensioned molds using ultraviolet or other polymerization-inducing radiation and heat. The molds are moved along a source of radiation such that the intensity of the radiation to which the composition is exposed rises and falls several times, thereby achieving superior results by balancing the initiation and the propagation of the polymerization.
Patent EP-0666059-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61B17/16
Filed: 1995-02-03
Abstract: A drill bit (10) is provided that is constructed and arranged 
to form a bore (22) in a bone (24) by cutting and moving bone 
fragments (26) to a wall (30) of the bore. The drill bit (10) 
includes an elongated shaft having a distal portion (12) and a 
proximal portion (14). The proximal portion (14) has a 
constant diameter. A cutting tip (16) is defined at the free 
end of the distal portion (12). A segment (18) of the distal 
portion (12) has transverse cross-sectional area less than 
that of the proximal portion (14). The distal portion segment 
(18) also includes a surface (21) to facilitate movement of 
the bone fragments (26) towards the proximal portion (14) of 
the shaft. When the drill bit (10) enters the bone (24) so as 
to form the bore (22) and is moved an amount such that the 
distal portion (12) is disposed completely within the bore 
(22), a space (28) is defined between the wall (30) of the 
bore and a periphery of the segment (18) of the distal portion 
(12) which receives the bone fragments (26). Further insertion 
of the drill bit (10) into the bone (21)causes the bone 
fragments (26) to move along the surface (21 of the distal 
portion segment (18) to the outer cylindrical surface of the 
proximal portion (14) which compacts the bone fragments (26) 
against the wall (30) of the bore.

IPC: G05D7/06
Filed: 1996-04-18
Abstract: A fluid dispensing control for controlling the dispensing of a
fluid by a metering valve through a nozzle onto a workpiece. An initial value
of a flow characteristic of the fluid is determined that is correlated to the
relationship between the flow rate of the fluid and nozzle pressure. Desired
nozzle pressure values are periodically determined by evaluating a model of
flow rate of the fluid through nozzle in response to the initial value of the
flow characteristic and a desired flow rate value. Thereafter, the control
provides command signals to the metering valve as a function of the desired
nozzle pressures. A new value of the flow characteristic is determined as
a function of the measured volume of fluid dispensed during the dispensing
cycle to the measured nozzle pressure. During a subsequent dispensing
cycle, the control determines the desired nozzle pressures by evaluating the
model of flow rate of the fluid through the nozzle as a function of the new
value of the flow characteristic. The process of reevaluating the flow
characteristic over successive dispensing cycles as a function of measured
volumes of fluid dispensed and measured nozzle pressures, and using those
updated values to reevaluate the model of flow rate of fluid through the
nozzle, is repeated.

signed in the PSD. The signed number is transmitted to the host where the
signature is verified. In an alternate embodiment, the PSD encrypts the
number and transmits it to the host system. The host system decrypts the
encrypted number and ensures it corresponds with the number originally
generated and transmitted to the PSD. Methods for verifying in a PSD that
the expected host is coupled to the PSD mirrors the two embodiments for
verifying the expected PSD. The generated message may include data
indicating status of the PSD based, for example a checksum of PSD
