Patent EP-1561236-A2 (EP)
Inventor: POLI BERNARD
IPC: B65G1/04
Filed: 2003-09-05
Abstract: A system for conveying and storing wafer containers in connection with wafer processing tools arranged in a row of a wafer fabrication facility and having substantially vertical faces in a common plane with wafer loading/unloading openings associated therewith includes a wafer container storage area, a wafer container temporary support, and a wafer container transfer mechanism. A row conveyor conveys wafer containers to the row. The wafer container transfer mechanism is located rearwardly of the vertical faces of the tools and the wafer container storage area, which has a plurality of stacked shelves, is located reawardly of the faces and above the tools in a subframe. The wafer container temporary support protrudes from the front of the faces. A wafer container transfer mechanism drive moves the wafer container transfer mechanism in X, Y, and Z directions in order to access the container storage area, the wafer container temporary support, and the openings of the tools. The wafer container transfer mechanism employs a wafer container grasping mechanism, a device for movement in the Y direction, and an elevator system for lowering and raising grasped containers from the openings of the tools in the row.

Abstract: Techniques for managing multiple hierarchies of data from a single native hierarchy include registering a set of routines for each foreign hierarchy. The set of routines performs a set of operations on data in the hierarchy associated with a node. A user request is received, which indicates a particular operation on particular data that does not correspond to a node of the native hierarchy. Based on the user request, a first operation on a first set of one or more nodes of a first hierarchy that is not the native hierarchy is determined. A particular routine that corresponds to the first operation is selected from a first set of routines registered for the first hierarchy, and is invoked. These techniques allow a user to employ a consistent interface with the native hierarchy to reach data in any of the hierarchies.

Abstract: A wideband impedance attenuator includes a phase-locked loop filter, a voltage-controlled oscillator connected to the phase-­locked loop filter during transmit, and an impedance circuit connected to the phase-locked loop filter and the voltage controlled oscillator. The impedance circuit is a scaled version of the phase-locked loop filter. Moreover, the wideband impedance attenuator attenuates a Gaussian frequency shift key modulation signal by a factor of 1/(N+1) using the impedance circuit, which has an impedance of N*Z(s), and the phase-locked loop filter, which has an impedance of Z(s). An output frequency is generated using a voltage-controlled oscillator wherein the output frequency corresponds to the attenuated Gaussian frequency shift key modulation signal. In addition, a comparator compares a voltage of an output from the programmable gain amplifier with a voltage necessary to produce a predetermined frequency shift in a voltage-­controlled oscillator to produce a gain signal. A gain controller, in response to the gain signal produced by the comparator, controls a gain of the programmable gain amplifier.

Abstract: An optical transmission network is disclosed that classifies digital broadcast
channel data according to virtual channel connection (VCC) before transmission. In the
optical transmission network, an optical signal receiver converts an optical signal from
an optical line terminal (OLT) into an ATM cell that is classified according to the VCC.
A VCC-based ATM cell classifier detects header information and a payload part from
the classified ATM cell of each VCC. PID analyzers receive a payload part of an ATM
cell corresponding to one VCC from the VCC-based ATM cell classifier, extract PID of
each broadcast channel from digital broadcast channel data included in the payload part,
and output specific broadcast channel data in the broadcast channel data included in the
payload part. A switch receives broadcast channel data output from the PID analyzers
and switches the received broadcast channel data to a broadcast channel desired by each
subscriber. The controller updates broadcast channel information by receiving header
information of the classified ATM cell of each VCC from the VCC-based ATM cell
classifier, receives the broadcast channel desired by the subscriber, and controls the PID
analyzers to output the desired broadcast channel according to VCC information with
the desired broadcast channel included therein so that the output broadcast channel is
matched to the subscriber.

Abstract: A wind turbine with a rotor of horizontal spin consists of the base (tower and
perpendicular axis), the rotor and the inner frame. 
     (Fig. 6) 
     The inner frame (c) rotates independently ±360° and its position is continuously
determined by the direction of the wind (Fig. 4-5). On its outer side it has a
guideway (d) (Fig. 6, 9A). 
     The rotor, which rotates independently 360°, is made up of the rotor frame (b) and
the blades (a). The blades, apart from their rotation with the rotor frame, rotate
around their own axis 0°→ 90°→ 0° (Fig. 6a, b). This is succeeded via the
extensions (e), which spread to the guideway (d) of the inner frame. 
     For a moment we assume that the inner frame (c) is still, oriented by the direction of
the wind) and the blades (a) are horizontal, perpendicular or in the intermediate
position (Fig. 9B). The impact of the wind on the perpendicular blades pushes them
and makes them turn, rotating the rotor. During this rotation, the blades that follow
rotate via their extensions (e), which move on the guideway (d) in the perpendicular
position to accept the impact - thrust of the wind, while the previous ones return to
the horizontal position e.t.c.
