Abstract: A vision testing method and apparatus are disclosed, the method including generating an image, modulating the wavefront of the image remote from the patient, relaying the modulated wavefront to a plane nearby, on, or within the patient's eye, varying the modulation of the wavefront based upon patient or operator response, and conveying the value of the wavefront modulation to the operator. The apparatus includes devices for generating an image, modulating the wavefront of the image that is physically remote from the patient, optically relaying the modulated wavefront of the image to a plane nearby, on, or within a patient's eye, varying the modulation of the wavefront of the image based upon patient or operator response, and conveying the value of the continuously modulated wavefront to the operator.

Abstract: A vision testing method and apparatus are disclosed, the method including measuring the modulation to a wavefront of light that is imparted by an intra-ocular lens, determining the wavefront modulation necessary to emulate the optical properties of the IOL after it replaces the crystalline lens in a patient's eye, generating a static or dynamic image viewable by a patient, modulating the wavefront of the image remote from the patient to attain the wavefront that necessary to emulate the optical properties of the IOL after it is implanted, and relaying said wavefront to a plane nearby, on, or within the patient's eye.

Abstract: This invention relates to a poly(ethylene terephthalate) photographic multilayer film base having improved properties with regard to cutting, stiffness and curl property. The multilayer film base comprises a multilayer structure, in which a tie layer comprises a PET-based polyester material having a specified amount of monomeric units derived from 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM), such that the support layers of the multilayer film base does not delaminate. This PET-based polyester material can be obtained either by the addition/blending of polyester polymers containing CHDM monomeric units to PET material and/or the incorporation of CHDM monomer units into a PET-polymer backbone at appropriate levels.

Abstract: Extendable modulus for advertising purposes for packaged products dispenser machines, applicable for the promotion and increase of sales in public sales points, and also usable in an autonomous mode, comprised of at least one vertical channel (2) containing the packaged products in promotion (3) in pile arrangement, an expelling system situated internally under the channel (2), an illuminating device (4) and a front cover (5) having an approximately semicylindrical shape in order to magnify the visualization grade of the advertisement, both (4 and 5) in a vertical and front arrangement and in accordance with the front face of the channel (2). The operation of the modulus starts once the activating signal (5) reaches the corresponding relay (R) which in turn through an electronic circuit activates the dispenser system thereby expelling the lower package of the pile towards the collecting tray (6).

Abstract: A smoothing iron has a water reservoir with a water discharge valve and drip valve. The water discharge valve includes a motion-dependent weight for inhibiting the passage of water from the water reservoir to the steam chamber of the iron when the iron is in a position of rest. When the valve is opened by the pressing motion, water is passed around the valve and through a water conduit to the drip valve which allows passage of the water to the steam chamber. To increase the degree of responsiveness of the water discharge valve, the weight is connected to a sealing body by a connecting rod.

Abstract: Packaged products dispenser device, consisting of a compartment situated on the lower part of a vertical loader (1) equipped with a base-plate (2) bearing the pile normally perpendicular with respect to it, and capable of turning downwards around a lower axis (3) such that, together with a retaining element (5) which holds the second product of the pile, the product situated underneath towards one side and in downward direction is expelled.

Abstract: A mechanism for securing panels to supporting vertical posts wherein each panel is a profile having at least one lateral inwardly protruding U-shaped channel and an upper and lower channel formed at an upper and lower side of the panel, respectively, includes reinforcing billets which are inserted in guides formed by the lower channels and the upper channels of the two panels, coupled to each other as the two panels to be connected to the supporting post overly each other. Angular members are provided for fixing the panels to the supporting posts. Each angular member has a T-shaped bend portion inserted in the lateral U-shaped channel of the panel in assembly.

Abstract: This game is played by batting an elongated cylindrical flipper through the air. The flipper to be batted rests on a holder being supported by an adjustable stand. This holder has a cylindrical groove that keeps the flipper in place and an adjustable detainer that causes a flipper's end to protrude out of the holder's end. The flipper is batted by striking it twice, first to flip it up into the air from the holder and secondly, to impart a translational movement. The adverse party will try to catch the flipper with a stopper which resembles a stringless racquet-ball racquet with a net.
