Abstract: Lacrimal implants (300) providing secure retention within the lacrimal punctum of an eye are described. The lacrimal implants can comprise a implant body (302) configured for at least partial insertion through the lacrimal punctum and into a lacrimal canaliculus. The implant body can include a deformable retention structure (308) that can be configured to substantially encapsulate an expandable retention element. In some examples, the expandable retention element can include a fluid absorbing material, which can be exposed to fluid such as via a fluid permeable retainer or a fluid permeable aperture (320). As the fluid absorbing material retains fluid (i.e., upon acceptance of fluid into the retention structure), its size increases and its shape can change to urge one or more portions of the retention structure outward, such as against a wall of the lacrimal canaliculus, thereby securely retaining the lacrimal implant within the punctum.

Title: Appliance control system with a zero crossing detecting circuit
Inventor: HARRIS ROBERT C
IPC: H03K17/13
Filed: 2009-10-21
Granted: 2016-08-30
Abstract: A control system includes a zero crossing detecting circuit for detect-ing a zero crossing of an AC signal. The circuit includes a transformer having a pri-mary portion and a secondary portion. The primary portion receives the AC signal.  The secondary portion comprises first and second terminals. The first terminal is bi-ased at a first DC voltage level. An output switch is operatively connected to the sec-ond terminal and has an on state and an off state. The output switch selectively acti-vates an output signal of the zero crossing detecting circuit according to an activation voltage level sensed by the output switch and corresponding to the zero crossing.  While in the off state, the output switch is biased at a second DC voltage level. A  voltage difference between the first and second DC voltage levels substantially equals the activation voltage level. A    con-troller monitors the output signal and con-trols an operation based on the output sig-nal.

Abstract: A method of recovering oil from an oil well and producing steam for injection into an injection well is provided. After recovering an oil-water mixture from the oil well, oi! is separated from the mixture to produce an oil product and produced water. In one process, the produced water is directed to an indirect fired steam generator which is powered by an independent boiler or steam generator. As water moves through the indirect fired steam generator, the same is heated to produce a steam-water mixture. The steam-water mixture is directed to the steam separator which separates the steam-water mixture into steam and water. The separated water is directed from the steam separator back to and through the indirect fired steam generator. This separated water is continued to be recycled through the indirect fired steam generator. Steam separated by the steam separator is directed into the injection well.

Abstract: Techniques for performing power control and handoff are described. In an aspect, power control (PC) is supported with multiple PC modes such as an up-down PC mode and an erasure-based PC mode. One PC mode may be selected for use. Signaling may be sent to indicate the selected PC mode. If the up-down PC mode is selected, then a base station estimates the received signal quality for a terminal and sends PC commands to direct the terminal to adjust its transmit power. If the erasure-based PC mode is selected, then the base station sends erasure indications that indicate whether codewords received from the terminal are erased or non-erased. For both PC modes, the terminal adjusts its transmit power based on the power control feedback (e.g., PC commands and/or erasure indications) to achieve a target level of performance (e.g., a target erasure rate for the codewords). The erasure indications may also be used for handoff.
