| 20120059404 | IRIS RETRACTION BALLOON FOR PHACOEMULSIFICATION - Provided is an inflatable ring device useful for expanding the iris prior to ophthalmic surgery. The ring shape is either continuous or discontinuous and includes a groove around the outer periphery of the ring. When inflated, the groove engages the inner periphery of the iris and continued inflation thereby expands the iris to a desired size allowing increased access to the eye. The invention also provides a method of expanding the iris prior to performing ophthalmic surgery comprising placing an inflatable ring shaped device in the anterior chamber of the eye. Inflating the inflatable ring shaped device until a groove around the outer periphery of the ring shaped device engages the iris and continued inflation of the ring shaped device continues to expand the iris to a desired size. | 03-08-2012 |

| 20100162561 | SLIDING PACKAGE RETENTION DEVICE FOR LGA SOCKETS - A land grid array (LGA) socket uses a series of inclined engagement features to transfer a lateral load into a normal load to retain the LGA package in the socket. The number and position of the engagement features along the side of the socket permits a more uniform transfer of load to the solder ball array as compared to current mechanisms. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20110211938 | Compliant End Of Arm Tooling For A Robot | 09-01-2011 |
| 20110223000 | Robotic Picking Of Parts From A Bin - A robot is used to pick parts from a bin. The robot has a compliant apparatus and one or more tools are connected to the apparatus to perform the picking. The compliant apparatus has mechanisms for monitoring and/or controlling its compliance. The compliant apparatus can have various embodiments. Force sensing can be used during removal of grasped parts from the bin to determine the force exerted on the picking tool(s). The signal indicative of the exerted force can be used by the robot controller to determine the weight of the parts that may be held by the picking tool(s). The robot has one or more devices which can be the picking tool to stir the parts in the bin. | 09-15-2011 |
