  • Publication number: 20230190525
    Abstract: An ultrasonic phacoemulsification handpiece with a sensor and a surge control system and a method. The central aspiration lumen of the ultrasonic phacoemulsification handpiece consists of two components of plug-in loose fit: a fixed lumen and an extension lumen; a small pressure sensor is mounted on the extension lumen, but still able to keep the easy-to-use size and maintain the ultrasonic performance of the handpiece. The extension lumen minimizes the effect of ultrasonic vibration on the sensor while maintaining sufficient stiffness for installing and removing the phacoemulsification tip. The design of the handpiece transducer reduces the effect of this sensor installation on the ultrasonic performance. For ultrasonic phacoemulsification cataract removal surgery, the short distance from the pressure sensor to the surgical site provides a technical solution for reliably controlling the risk of the post occlusion surge.

  • Patent number: 10818443
    Abstract: A switching mechanism for a dual power supply transfer switch. The switching mechanism has a switching assembly, which includes a driving plate, a driving rod, an actuator and an auxiliary mechanism. The driving plate includes an arc-shaped driving groove. The driving rod extends into the driving groove. The auxiliary mechanism includes a spring. The driving plate is able to rotate under an external force. The driving groove bypasses the driving rod when an end of the driving groove does not contact the driving rod, and the driving groove pushes the driving rod to rotate over a first angle and urges the spring to deform when the end of the driving groove contacts the driving rod. The spring recovers and drives the driving rod to rotate over a second angle after the spring having passed a dead point, thus causing the actuator turning on or off a first power supply. The switching mechanism also includes another switching assembly for switching a second power supply.
