Patent CA-2745042-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PERKINS JAMES T
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 2009-12-04
Abstract: A pneumatically driven vitrectomy probe system includes a movable member disposed within a cylinder to define an enclosed pressure chamber, which has an inlet and an outlet. A pressure transducer senses the pressure level within the enclosed pressure chamber, and a valve communicates pressurized air to the inlet of the enclosed pressure chamber based on the pressure level. A displacement device coupled to the movable member extends and retracts the movable member within the enclosed pressure chamber, to respectively increase and decrease the pressure level of pressurized air communicated via the chamber outlet. The pressurized air is communicated to enclosed volume within a pneumatically activated vitrectomy probe, which includes a hollow inner cutting member disposed within the hollow outer member. Upon extension of the displacement member, the resulting increase in pressure level of the pressurized air in the enclosed volume acts against the biasing spring to move the hollow inner cutting member, to cut vitreous material extending within the hollow outer member.

Abstract: A cutting tool includes a coolant convey-ing member, to provide coolant fluid to a cutting area dur-ing a cutting operation. The coolant conveying member includes a member body having a fluid passage formed therein, and a nozzle to convey and to jet out the coolant fluid therethrough. The nozzle is shiftable relative to the member body, between a first, extended position and a second, retracted position. In the extended position, for example, assumed during the cutting operation, the nozzle extends out and forwardly from the member body, stabi-lized by the continuous flow of coolant fluid therethrough, forcing the nozzle forwardly. In the retracted position, for example, assumed when the when the coolant fluid does not flow through the coolant conveying member, or flows at a low rate, the nozzle may be at least partially accom-modated in the fluid passage, to allow, for example, index-ing or replacing of the cutting insert.
