Patent NZ-336113-A (NZ)
Title: Use of a texaphyrin in ocular diagnosis and therapy
Inventor: BLUMENKRANZ M
IPC: A61K41/00
Filed: 1997-12-11
Abstract: Photosensitive texaphyrins may be used for photodynamic therapy of conditions of the eye characterized by abnormal vasculature, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, myopia or pterygium.   The photosensitive texaphyrin may be a free-base texaphyrin or preferably metallated with a diamagnetic cation, such as lutetium. Detectable texaphyrins may be used as contrast agents for carrying out ocular angiography.  When the detectable texaphyrin is fluorescent, the vasculature state of the eye may be observed by fluorescence.  Alternatively, the texaphyrin may be complexed with a paramagnetic cation and observed by magnetic resonance imaging. Due to the dual wavelength absorption of texaphyrins at 400-500 nm and at 700-800 nm, texaphyrins are more effective and versatile for use in humans as compared to porphyrins.

Title: Air break switch actuator comprising operating means manually operable and/or driven by a linear drive unit
Inventor: HILLEGERS DICK
IPC: H01H3/50
Filed: 1999-08-06
Abstract: A high voltage air break electrical switch actuator (4) is mounted on a pole (3) and connects to an operating lever (2) of the air brake switch (124). The air break switch actuator of the present invention allows the movement of the air brake switch between a first and a second condition (being conditions to allow power to be conducted and to be broken at the switch). A biasing means such as a spring is compressed until the mechanism reaches a point where then the energy of the biasing means is utilized in rapidly moving the air brake switch to the other condition. A spring plate (24) is located to rotate about the same axis of rotation as the motor and switch plates. Its rotation is of a snap through or toggle-like manner. Both the spring plate (24) and the motor plate (84) and switch plate (16) rotate about a pivot axis common with the axis of the central shaft (123).
