Abstract: An insertion device for inserting a deformable intraocular lens into the eye. The insertion device has a an enclosing member that is attached to the body of the insertion device and that has two hinge portions at a lens receiving section. Further, a retainer member is fitted onto the enclosing member and a holder fitted onto the body. The deformable intraocular lens is placed in the lens receiving section after the enclosing member is opened. When the holder is retracted, the intraocular lens is deformed by a tapered inner wall portion formed at a the tip end of the holder, so that the exterior size of the lens is reduced. Subsequently, a push rod supported by the body is advanced in order to insert the lens into the eye.

Abstract: A deformable intraocular lens which does not deviate within the eye and is free from strains or deformation even when the tails of the supports are deformed by external force such as compression.The lens according to the invention has a deformable optical part which is made of an elastic material, and a plurality of supports which are made of a material different from that of the optical part and which are bonded to the optical part, each of the supports having, in a serial integration, a flexible tail, a rigid base which cuts off the transmission of stress generated by the deformation of the tail to the optical part, and an anchor which binds the support to the optical part, wherein the transitional part of the tail and the base is disposed outside the optical part. With this structure, even when the tails of the supports are deformed by external force, the tails themselves absorb the deformation stress and the rigid bases cut off transmission of the stress to the optical part.

Abstract: A deformable intraocular lens which can be inserted in the eye through a smaller incision by being deformed to have a smaller shape. The lens according to the invention has a deformable optical part which is made of an elastic material, the optical part having a lens portion and a peripheral portion surrounding the lens portion. The peripheral portion is thinner than the center of the lens portion. A plurality of supports are made of a flexible material different from the material of the optical part. Each support has an anchor embedded in the optical part for bonding the support to the optical part. A plurality of reinforcing sections having a thickness larger than the peripheral portion of the optical part are provided at a plurality of positions on the peripheral portion of the optical part or in the proximity thereof. The anchors of the supports are embedded in the reinforcing section.

Abstract: An inserting device for inserting an intraocular lens into the eye. An interference preventing portion is formed in a lens holding section which is provided with an opening/closing mechanism and is a part of a holder member attached to a body. An intraocular lens is held by the lens holding section such that its optical part made of an elastic material is deformed into a smaller shape. The tip portion of a support which is made of a different material from that of the optical part and which extends backward the optical part is received by the interference preventions portion. When a pusher rod of a pusher mechanism attached to the body is advanced, only the optical part is pushed by the pusher rod without causing interference between the pusher rod and the tip portion of the support, thereby inserting the intraocular lens into the eye.

Abstract: In a ski boot heel binding comprising a heel supporting body slidably mounted on a base plate, a transverse shaft is rotatably supported by the supporting body and has fixed thereto a ski brake and a lever to rotate together with the shaft. The lever is operatively connected with a stationary part of the base plate in such a manner that when the supporting body slides back or forth along the base plate, the lever rotates about the stationary part of the base plate.

Abstract: A ski boot heel binding having a pivotable heel engaging jaw member is provided with first and second cam members both swingably mounted to a supporting frame body on a base plate. The second cam member has a transverse rod slidably engaged with a recess formed in the rear part of the jaw member and acts upon the first cam member to swing back the latter against a spring force when the second cam member is rotated by the upward movement of the transverse rod engaging with the recess in the jaw member.

Abstract: Each one of a pair of pivot members is provided at the forward end portion thereof with a boot toe holding member and pivotably connected at the rear end portion thereof to a base plate by a first pin. Each one of a pair of links is pivotably connected at the forward end portion thereof to a pivot member by a second pin, wherein the first pin for the pivot member is located outwardly and rearwardly of the second pin. Each link is urged forwardly by a spring acting on the outer rear end thereof.
