Title: A pneumatic valve for controlling the braking of a trailer, in particular a servo-distributor with adjustable predominance
IPC: B60T15/24
Filed: 1988-11-29
Abstract: The valve comprises a body (51) in which are mounted  
a movable member (60) in which is formed a 
normally-closed valve (90b, 92) which controls the 
pressure supplied to the braking members of the trailer,  
a movable piston (100) arranged to be moved by a 
brake-operating pressure towards the member (60) and to 
cause the opening of the valve (90b, 92),  
a reaction piston (71) facing the member (60) and 
exposed to the pressure supplied to the brake members 
as a result of the opening of the valve (90b, 92); the 
reaction piston (71) being arranged to return the 
actuating piston (100), against the action of resilient 
biassing means (77), to a position in which it enables 
the valve (90b, 92) to close again when the pressure 
supplied to the brake members reaches a predetermined 
value dependent on the value of the said 
brake-operating pressure, and  
a manually-operable member (52, 53) or adjusting the 
predominance which is arranged to modify the position 
of the movable member (60) in the body (51).  
     The movable member (60) and the reaction piston (71) 
are formed so as to be in contact with each other in 
the absence of a brake-operating pressure so that the 
member (52, 53) for adjusting the predominance can move 
the movable member (60) together with the reaction 
piston (71) while at the same time varying the loading 
of the resilient biassing means (77).

Filed: 1989-02-06
Abstract: A three point suspension system and clamping mechanism for 
holding the face of a chase (28) perpendicular to the optical 
axis (36) of a multiple imaging camera/projector (10). The 
chase (28) is equipped with pins (64-72) which project from 
it and are located to bear against three pegs (76) which project 
from the chase carrier (26) of the machine (10) to provide 
three point contact between the chase (28) and chase carrier 
(26). The tips (64a) of the pins (64-72) are adjusted to define 
a plane that is parallel to the plane of the glass panel (42) 
on the chase which receives the flat copy to be photorepro­
duced. The ends (76) of the pegs (74) lie in a common plane 
which is perpendicular to the optical axis (36) so that the 
glass panel (42) of the chase (28) is also maintained normal 
to the optical axis (36). The clamping mechanism is operated 
by pneumatic cylinders (82) and allows the chase (28) to be 
quickly replaced or rotated to a different orientation.

Title: Method of producing boron-containing and/or phosphorous-containing silicate glass layers for highly integrated circuits
IPC: H01L21/316
Filed: 1989-04-13
Abstract: In a process for producing boron-containing and/or phosphorous- containing silicate glass layers, such as borosilicate glass, phosphorosilicate glass, borophosphorosilicate glass or boroarsenosilicate glass, the starting materials for the decomposition and deposition from the gas phase are organic silicon-oxygen-boron compounds or silicon-oxygen-phosphorus compounds which already contain all the elements in the predetermined ratio. The decomposition of the organic starting compounds can be carried out thermally or by excitation in an electromagnetic alternating field. The process is used in producing insulating layers between conductor tracks, passivation layers and auxiliary layers in doping, and in particular in producing trench-type capacitor storage cells (DRAMs) for the substrate doping in the cell field. The process makes it possible to produce stable silicate glass layers with a specified doping even at high integration density and can be carried out at low deposition temperatures. The starting materials used are nontoxic and can readily be handled. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0380926-A3 (EP)
Title: Asynchronous microprocessor random access memory arbitration controller
IPC: G06F15/177
Filed: 1990-01-09
Abstract: A system of arbitration for access to a common 
memory by two asynchronous microprocessors without 
excluding either microprocessor for more than a 
predetermined, limited period of time. Two asynchronous 
microprocessors are connected to a common memory through 
an arbitration controller with a connection to transmit a 
"not ready" signal to one microprocessor requesting 
access when the other is in the process of accessing the 
common memory. A flip flop is connected to generate a 
predetermined signal output when a microprocessor 
requires access to the common memory, and this 
predetermined signal initiates a shift register to 
provide the internal timing of the asynchronous 
microprocessor requiring such access to bring it into 
synchronism with the clock controlling the internal cycle 
of the common memory. When there is contention for 
access to the common memory, a flip flop connects one 
microprocessor to the common memory, where such 
connection is maintained only for a predetermined, 
limited period of time, when access is returned to the 
first microprocessor. Access to the common memory by 
any microprocessor is always for only this one, 
predetermined, limited period of time.

a theoretical intensity by using the conversion coef­
ficient, and (d) calculating a plating amount and 
composition as parameters in the theoretical relation, 
which minimize a difference between the theoretical 
intensity obtained by the theoretical relation and the 
converted theoretical intensity, as a plating amount and 
composition of the plate to be measured.
