Abstract:
A spacer block that provides for a method of rebuilding an electrically operated automatic transmission controller assembly is disclosed. The block allows for offsetting and stabilizing or securing a printed circuit (PC) board to a manifold block, in which several solenoid assemblies reside within the span of the spacer block. The spacer block includes a first means for connecting to the manifold block and a second means for connecting to the PC board. The rebuilt solenoid module preferably includes at least one new solenoid.
Abstract:
An apparatus for determining intraocular pressure includes a transducer assembly containing an applanation tonometer for the determination of a cornea applanation pressure and an ultrasonic pachymeter to determine the thickness of the cornea at the site of applanation. The assembly has a tip end which includes an applanation surface and an ultrasonic coupler surface, and an end cap membrane holder is adapted to fit over the tip end of the transducer assembly and hold a thin film membrane stretched over the applanation and ultrasonic coupler surfaces. The transducer assembly also has a detector for detecting the presence or absence of the end cap membrane holder, the detector may generate a signal to disable movement of the transducer assembly if the end cap is not detected.
Abstract:
An improved apparatus and method of intraocular pressure determination is disclosed in which applanation tonometery is done simultaneously with pachymetry. The method allows for increased accuracy of intraocular pressure determination based upon adjustments of applanation tonometry for corneal thickness. The device allows an untrained operator to quickly and easily determine the accurate intraocular pressure.
