Patent ID: 11931246

Abstract:
An intraocular lens implantation injector has a base body and elongated actuation element projecting into a base body rear section, movably guided along an actuation axis. Actuation element movement is generated selectively by axial push actuation or screw actuation about the axis. The actuation element features an external thread at least on one section. A switch element arranged to the base body is rotatable about or displaceable along the axis. The switch element features a spring arm, having an inner surface thread engagement structure facing the external thread. The base body inner surface forms an operative contact with a spring arm outer surface. The inner and/or outer surface is angularly inclined to the axis, or the inner surface features an inner radius varying circumferentially at least in sections about the axis. Switch element rotation/displacement generates spring arm elastic deformation towards/away from the axis, for selective thread engagement structure engagement.
