distal point and a proximal end . The needle has a first position wherein it is disposed within
the cavity through the opening and into the catheter passageway so that the sharp distal point
of the needle projects axially beyond the distal end of the catheter. A spring directly acts on
the needle to urge the needle to a second position wherein the needle is substantially within the
cavity. The assembly has a releasable latch associated with the handle to retain the needle in
the first position, the latch is movable to a release position wherein the latch no longer retains
the needle in said first position.

Abstract: An eyeglass lens grinding machine, which ensures
that a bevel can be easily formed on the periphery of an
eyeglass lens in such a manner that those portions of the
lens which will protrude from either the front or rear
surface of an eyeglass frame are appropriately adjusted in
areas where the edge thickness is great. A good aesthetic
appeal after the lens has been fitted in the frame. In the
improved eyeglass lens grinding machine, the frame
configurational data on said eyeglass frame and the layout
data to be used in providing a layout of the lens
corresponding to the eyeglass frame are entered. The edge
position of a processed lens is detected on the basis of said
entered data. A first bevel path is determined on the basis
of the result of detection. A second bevel path is obtained
by tilting said first bevel path in such a way that it passes
through a desired position on the lens edge. The bevelling
of the lens is controlled on the basis of said second bevel
path.
