Patent CA-2617036-A1 (CA)
Title: Irrigation/aspiration tip
Inventor: HONG KAREN
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 2008-01-07
Abstract: An irrigation/aspiration tip (100) for use with a handpiece (140) in ophthalmic phacoemulsification surgery is provided, having a relatively rigid cannula (112) attached to a hub (116) and an open end (118) opposite the hub. Coaxially and removably received over the cannula is a soft elastomeric or rubber sleeve (114). The sleeve forms a gap (130) between the sleeve and the cannula, the gap allowing irrigation flow. The distal end of the sleeve is closed by reduced diameter cap (115) portion. The reduced diameter of the cap seals the distal end (119) of the cannula except for an aspiration port (120). The relatively soft cap reduces the likelihood that the posterior capsule will tear during cortical clean-up and capsule polishing during ophthalmic surgery. Removing the sleeve allows the cannula to be resterilized an unlimited number of times, thereby allowing unlimited reuse of the cannula.
Patent CA-2619350-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZEUS CHRISTIAN JOSEF STEPHAN
IPC: E05C1/06
Filed: 2008-02-01
Abstract: An intuitively operable door locking arrangement and a method include, a lock-point arming input element that is connected directly to a handle-operated control element of the locking arrangement, rather than being connected directly to a lock-point of the door locking arrangement. The locking arrangement and method may be used in hinged single or multiple-panel installations, having single, and/or multiple lock-points, may allow keyless locking from outside, and may include a latching arrangement. In active door locking apparatuses, the lock-point is movable only through operation of the handle-operated control element. The lock point arming element is selectively moveable between an armed and a disarmed position thereof, and is configured and connected to the handle-operated control element in such a manner that the handle-operated control element may be used to move the lock-point to the locked position thereof only when the lock-point arming input element is in the armed position thereof.
