Title: Multi-action device for inserting an intraocular lens into an eye
Inventor: LEE NGEE JENN
IPC: A61F9/00
Filed: 2006-04-12
Granted: 2012-01-19
Abstract: A device for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye includes a tubular body member with an inner surface and a plunger with an gripping device that is receivable within the body member. The gripping device includes a locking member and is configured such that when urged longitudinally in a distal direction, the gripping device is movable in the distal direction within the body member. However, when urged longitudinally in a proximal direction, the gripping device is prevented from moving in the proximal direction by the locking member engaging with the inner surface of the body member. As such, inadvertent movement of the plunger in the proximal direction caused by pulling back on the plunger is substantially prevented. If proximal movement of the plunger is desired, then the plunger may include handle that is operatively coupled to the gripping device such rotation of the handle causes the handle to move longitudinally in the body member. Accordingly, the plunger may be advanced or moved distally by longitudinally pushing the handle and/or by rotating the handle.

Title: Circuit arrangement for an antenna tuning system using a non-volatile memory and a voltage bootstrapping circuit in passive RFID systems
Inventor: SIRINAMARATANA PAIROTE
IPC: H03J7/02
Filed: 2007-08-31
Granted: 2012-02-23
Abstract: P :WPDOCS\KMI\Speafications\Drovers Ay C ne\20197617 speo doc-8/31/2007 The circuit arrangement using a voltage-bootstrapping circuit to improve the performance of an antenna tuning system is composed of a resonant circuit (1), a frequency-tuning network (2), a rectifier (3), a voltage regulator (4), latch and level 5 converter (5), digital controller and memory (6) and a voltage-bootstrapping control system consisting of a voltage-bootstrapping circuit (32) and a bootstrapping switch (33). At an extremely low (Vfwr) level extracted from the resonant circuit (1), the voltage bootstrapping circuit (32) turns the voltage-bootstrapping switch (33) on feed-forwarding the (Vfwr) to supply internal circuits directly instead of obtaining through a voltage 10 regulator (4) avoiding the voltage headroom requirement. With this circuit arrangement, the tuning system can operate at a much lower voltage than the system without it. It also can utilize high-Q factor inductor, resulting in a longer read distance of a RFID transponder containing this system. During the voltage bootstrapping, the digital controller and memory are arranged (6) so that the correct tuning data can be passed to the data latch 15 and level converter (5). Outputs of the circuit (5) control the frequency-tuning network (2). When the (Vfwr) is reasonably high enough and without headroom degradation, the regulator (4) can generate the internal supply voltage and supersedes the feed-forward action whereby the voltage-bootstrapping circuit turns the switch (33) off and the latch will keep the tuning data constant during RFID operations. ........

Granted: 2013-01-24
Abstract: Electronic time delay apparatuses and methods of use are disclosed. An explosive or propellant system, which may be configured as a well perforating system includes an electronic time delay assembly comprising an input subassembly, an electronic time delay circuit, and an output subassembly. The input subassembly is activated by an external stimulus, wherein an element is displaced to activate an electronic time delay circuit. The electronic time delay circuit comprises a time delay device coupled with a voltage firing circuit. The electronic time delay circuit counts a time delay, and, upon completion, raises a voltage until a threshold firing voltage is exceeded. Upon exceeding the threshold firing voltage, a voltage trigger switch will break down to transfer energy to an electric initiator to initiate an explosive booster within the output subassembly. The explosive booster provides the detonation output to initiate the next element explosive or propellant element, such as an array of shaped charges in the well perforating system.
