Patent AU-704305-B2 (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for lenticular liquefaction and aspiration
Inventor: ANDREW MARK
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 1995-12-18
Granted: 1999-04-22
Abstract: A technique is described for liquefying, or gelifying, a hardened, cataractous lens nucleus and aspirating the same. Heat or heated solution is delivered to the lens nucleus in vivo so that the heat or heated solution is placed in contact with the hardened nucleus in order to heat and liquefy the same. The lens nucleus is irrigated simultaneously with a cooled solution to thereby limit to a very small area where the heat or heated solution is present in the eye. This allows the surgeon precise control over which intraocular anterior segment structures are exposed to the heat or heated solution. The liquefied lens nuclear material is then aspirated from the eye. The above allows the removal of a lens nucleus through a 1 to 2 mm corneal or limbal incision which is smaller than the smallest incision allowable with previously known small incision cataract techniques. The above benefits the patient as it allows small incision cataract removal to be done in a way that is non-traumatic to intraocular structures. The above benefits the surgeon, and the patient, in that it is a relatively straightforward and easy surgical maneuver for the surgeon to perform. This is in stark contrast to current phacoemulsification, which is potentially very traumatic to intraocular structures, and which is a relatively difficult surgical maneuver to perform.

Title: Low reverse torque closure assembly
Inventor: KOO JAMES Y C
IPC: B65D50/04
Filed: 1993-12-07
Granted: 1995-06-22
Abstract: A two-piece child-resistant closure utilises a particular ratchet configuration of ratchet teeth (24, 26) and ramps (32) which due to the relative placement of the elements thereof provides negligible reverse torque during undepressed counter-clockwise rotation of the outer closure member. Negligible reverse torque is defined as the torque caused by frictional contact of outer (12) and inner (14) caps when the undepressed closure is turned in the removal direction being insufficient to cause undesired or accidental removal of the closure from the container. <IMAGE>

Title: Steel plate with organic coating having improved corrosion resistance in as-worked state
Inventor: OGISHI HIDEO
IPC: B32B15/08
Filed: 1990-03-28
Granted: 1991-03-28
Abstract: The improved corrosion-resistant steel plate with an organic coating comprises a steel plate having a zinc or zinc alloy plate layer which is overlaid with a chromate film which in turn is coated with an organic resin paint film. The organic resin coat comprises an epoxy resin which is prepared by reacting with an isocyanate compound and has a dialkanolamine incorporated into its bisphenol A skeleton, and silica. The dialkanolamine combines with a urethane-modified epoxy resin to provide satisfactory curability at low temperatures; at the same time, it combines with the silica to provide a satisfactory film reinforcing effect. The organic coat formed of this composition can be effectively cured at low temperatures and yet it will neither dissolve nor soften upon swelling under the action of the alkali that is generated during cationic electrodeposition at the interface between the electrodeposited film and the organic coat. Thus, the organic coat has good paint adhesion, high corrosion resistance, as well as good workability and as-worked corrosion resistance and makes the steel plate suitable for use as an automotive part after painting.
