Patent AU-6107696-A (AU)
Title: Radial intrastromal corneal insert and a method of insertion
Inventor: SCHANZLIN DAVID J
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 1996-06-07
Abstract: The subject invention relates to an intrastromal corneal insert designed to be meridionally situated in an interlamellar pocket or channel made within the cornea of a mammalian eye. The insert has a shape which, when inserted into the cornea, has a significant meridional dimension and may be used to adjust corneal curvature and thereby correct or improve vision abnormalities such as hyperopia. The inserts may also have a cirumferential component to their configuration to allow concurrent correction of other vision abnormalities. The radial insert may be made of a physiologically compatible material, e.g., one or more synthetic or natural, soft, firm, or gelatinous polymers. In addition, the insert or segment may be used to deliver therapeutic or diagnostic agents to the corneal interior or to the interior of the eye. One or more of the radial inserts of this invention typically are inserted into the cornea so that each subtends a portion of the meridian of the cornea outside of the cornea's central area, e.g., the area through which vision is achieved, but within the cornea's frontal diameter. Typically, the insert is used in arrays of two or more to correct specific visual abnormalities, but may be used in isolation when such is called for. The invention also includes both a minimally invasive procedure for inserting one or more of the devices into the cornea using procedures beginning within the cornea as well as procedures beginning in the sclera.

Title: Combination reinforcement for floor on piles
Inventor: THOOFT HENDRIK
IPC: E04B5/00
Filed: 1998-02-04
Abstract: A fixed construction (10) comprises rigid piles (12) and a monolithic concrete floor slab resting (14) on the piles.

Title: Phase-locked loop coefficient generator for a filter arrangement having a non-rational ratio between input and output sampling frequencies
Inventor: STIKVOORT EDUARD FERDINAND
IPC: H03H17/06
Filed: 1986-12-15
Abstract: In a sample rate converter having a non-rational conversion factor the input samples coincide with low-rate clock pulses and the output samples coincide with high-rate clock pulses, or inversely. It comprises a filter coeffi­cient generator 3 which, based on the distance (deviation) between a low-rate clock pulse and the immediately preceding or immediately subsequent high-rate clock pulse, con­tinuously supplies a series of filter coefficients. To de­termine the deviation a phase-locked loop (30) is provided, with a phase detector (301) receiving the low-rate clock pulses as well as synthetic low-rate clock pulses and supplying a discrete-time phase difference signal u(.) which is applied to a processor circuit (302). This circuit supplies the desired deviation d(.) and a reference number N which is applied to a counter circuit (304). This circuit also re­ceives the high-rate clock pulses and each time after re­ceiving the number of clock pulses corresponding to the reference number it supplies a synthetic low-rate clock pulse. In the processor circuit 302 a filtering operation (3021) is first performed on the discrete-time phase dif­ference signal u(.) so that control signal samples H(.) are obtained. An auxiliary sample s(.) is subtracted from such a control signal sample and the difference is divided by a weighting factor incr. of the number P thus obtained those bits whose significance is less than 2° represent the deviation d(.), while the other bits represent the reference number N. By subsequently multiplying the deviation d(.) by the weighting factor incr, a new auxiliary sample s(. + 1) is obtained.

Title: An apparatus for filling packaging containers
Inventor: GUSTAFSSON PER
IPC: B67C3/28
Filed: 1994-09-05
Abstract: Apparatuses for filling packaging containers often include some form of metering device which makes it possible to fill each packaging container with a predetermined quantity of contents.
