The invention provides a digital type universal meter automatic calibration system. A calibration module controls a multifunctional calibration source to input corresponding A/DC voltage, A/DC current and resistance values to a detected digital type universal meter via an image acquisition device according to a gear range of the detected digital type universal meter. The image acquisition device acquires the measured data displayed by the digital type universal meter, then the measured data are inputted to the calibration module to be processed and error calculation and certificate generation are performed on the measured data. The measured data of the digital type universal meter can be automatically read, identified and led in so that artificial eye reading of the measured data of the universal meter is substituted and accuracy and working efficiency of calibration are enhanced.

An artificial eye for use in animated plush toys has a one-piece eyeball and lid that are integrally molded. The eye further includes a shaped member and a retaining post. A crossplate of the shaped member is preferably curved to correspond to the curvature of the eye, and is operative to animate a portion of plush contiguous to the eye. The portion of plush to be animated has an attached elongated flap which includes a forked free end wherein each branch of the forked end includes a hole. The elongated flap is inserted into the doll's body or head cavity, and each branch is tucked under the curved crossplate of the shaped member. The retaining post engages the holes near the ends of each branch, thereby fixedly retaining the flap to the eye. When the eye is rotated the plush portion also moves thereby simulating movement of an eyelid.

Alternatively, the lamina can comprise colored glass or ceramic and is sintered onto the lens. In a second configuration, the eye additionally comprises an insert layer, which can be glass, between the lens and the lamina.

The present invention is directed to novel fish hooks for use in making fishing flies or lures. The inventive hooks are designed such that the fishing fly dressings (e.g. fur, feathers, artificial eyes, artificial wings, tinsel, and other material) used to make the fly or lure may be securely affixed thereto. The design of the inventive hook, as described in more detail below, prevents the fishing fly dressings from loosening, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the fish hook in attracting and ensnaring fish.

A method and system for simulating/emulating vision using intraocular devices or lenses prior to surgery, preferably using multifocal and monofocal intraocular lenses. The invention allows the patient, prior to surgery, to compare the differences in the perception of an image as seen with the intraocular lens and with normal vision, determining which type of lens the patient prefers, and in turn allows the ophthalmologist to measure which provides the better visual performance. The invention comprises a system containing the intraocular lens, called an artificial eye, a lens for transporting the image from the intraocular lens and eliminating the blur introduced by the artificial eye, and at least one telescope or optometer which transports the intermediate image from the intraocular lens onto the patient's pupil. In this manner, the patient is shown how he/she would see after surgery with each type of lens proposed by the ophthalmologist.

An improved apparatus and method for producing improved artificial eyes is disclosed. The artificial eye comprises a substrate, graphical or decorative inks, and a protective barrier material or layer. Generally, the decorative ink is applied to the inner or convex surface of the substrate, preferably by pad printing techniques. The protective barrier layer may then be applied to the decorative ink layer in order to protect the decorative ink from physical wear, separation from the substrate, chemical reaction, and other degradation. The barrier layer may comprise, for example a rubberized coating, automotive undercoating, paraffin, wax, or other coating sufficient to protect the decorative ink.

The invention discloses an iris rotating artificial eye and a manufacturing method thereof. The artificial eye is designed into a hollow thin layer, an interlayer structure is arranged in the artificial eye, and an iris membrane is arranged in the interlayer structure of the artificial eye, wherein a magnetic driving sheet similar to a cornea contact lens sample is placed into a conjunctival sac on the back of the artificial eye to drive the iris membrane to move. The contradiction problem in the prior artificial eye, namely the relation between the size and motion degree of the artificial eye, is solved, so the artificial eye can meet the requirements of eyelid plumpness and the simulated motion of the artificial eye at the same time.
