Patent EP-2919975-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SAHLER RUTH
IPC: B29D11/00
Filed: 2013-10-09
Abstract: A system/method allowing hydrophilicity alteration of a polymeric material (PM) is disclosed. The PM hydrophilicity alteration changes the PM characteristics by decreasing the PM refractive index, increasing the PM electrical conductivity, and increasing the PM weight. The system/method incorporates a laser radiation source that generates tightly focused laser pulses within a three- dimensional portion of the PM to affect these changes in PM properties. The system/method may be applied to the formation of customized intraocular lenses comprising material (PLM) wherein the lens created using the system/method is surgically positioned within the eye of the patient. The implanted lens refractive index may then be optionally altered in situ with laser pulses to change the optical properties of the implanted lens and thus achieve optimal corrected patient vision. This system/method permits numerous in situ modifications of an implanted lens as the patient's vision changes with age.

Abstract: The invention provides a medical elongated body which can improve the operability by suppressing anisotropy of torque transmission performance in accordance with the rotational direction as much as possible while maintaining flexibility. Provided is a medical elongated body having a proximal shaft (60) which extends in an axial center direction (X) and includes at least a part of which a spiral slit (61) is formed. The proximal shaft (60) includes a site in which the spiral inclination angles (α), which are angles in an extending direction of a spiral of the slit (61) with respect to a cross-section orthogonal to the axial center direction (X), are different from each other, and a stepped portion (102) in which the angle of the slit (61) changes locally with respect to the spiral inclination angle (α) is formed on one opposed surface (100) constituting the slit (61), and an abutting portion (112) on which the stepped portion (102) abuts when the proximal shaft (60) is twisted in a direction in which the spiral of the slit (61) is released is formed on the other opposed surface (110). A length (L3) of stepped portions (102) in the axial center direction (X) in a site in which the spiral inclination angle (α) is relatively large is formed to be longer than that in a site in which the spiral inclination angle (α) is relatively small.

The third port of the beam splitter is connected to the first 90 degree Faraday mirror, and the fourth port of the beam splitter is connected to the second 90 degree Faraday mirror. The beam splitter is configured to combine the two optical pulses respectively reflected by the first and second 90 degree Faraday mirrors into one light beam outputted from the output port. The delay line is connected between the fourth port of the beam splitter and the second 90 degree Faraday mirror. The phase modulator is connected between the third port of the beam splitter and the first 90 degree Faraday mirror, between the fourth port of the beam splitter and the second 90 degree Faraday mirror, or between the beam splitter and the output port of the polarization-controlled encoder.

Abstract: Provided is a lithium ion battery including a battery can (10), a battery core (20) received in the battery can, electrolyte filled in the battery can, and a battery cover (30) assembled to the battery can. The battery can or the battery cover is provided with a pressure relief valve (50), and the pressure relief valve is coupled with a mesh cover (60) defining a number of through holes (608) therein. According to the present invention, when thermal runaway occurs to the lithium ion battery, the pressure relief valve (50) breaks timely. Only gases and electrolyte vapor can pass through the mesh cover (60). Solid particles cannot pass through the mesh cover. Therefore, ignition of the flammable gases, the electrolyte vapor and the high temperature solid particles in the surrounding air afar from the pressure relief valve is avoided and the safety performance of the lithium ion battery can be improved remarkably.
