Title: Fabrication of pressure vessels
Inventor: WERNER JOHN A
IPC: B21D22/18
Filed: 1992-04-07
Abstract: An improved apparatus for the formation and production of cylindrical pressure vessels or tanks through metal spinning operations wherein the end caps of the vessels are simultaneously formed from a hollow, thin-walled cylindrical work tube (24) rotatably supported within the apparatus. The arrangement is further designed to provide control of the distribution of the wall thickness as well as the profile of the end cap portion (106) of the vessel so that the knuckle area (148) may be of controlled thickness to increase durability and performance of the tank or vessel.

Abstract: A semiconductor device has test-only contacts to reduce the size of the device and eliminate unnecessary external contacts. In one form of the invention, a semiconductor device (30) is provided with solder balls (26) which are electrically coupled to those portions of a semiconductor die (20) that are necessary for device operation. The device also includes test pads (32) formed on a package substrate (12) which are electrically coupled to those portions of the die which are necessary only for a manufacturer's testing purposes. In another form, a semiconductor device (10) includes external test-only solder balls along the periphery of the package substrate, for example solder balls between boundaries A and B. After testing is complete, the package substrate is excised along boundary A, thereby eliminating solder balls which are not needed by the device user. A combination of the two techniques may also be used.

Abstract: Multicolor photographic elements are disclosed containing at least three dye image forming layer units. An enhancement of the speed-granularity relationship of a dye image is obtained when the corresponding dye image forming layer unit contains at least three superimposed emulsion layers. The two emulsion layers farther from the support contain silver bromoiodide emulsions, with the emulsion layer nearest the support containing a silver bromide or bromoiodide emulsion of up to 60 percent the iodide as a proportion of silver of the next overlying of the emulsion layers. The three emulsion layers each differ in speed from the next adjacent of the emulsion layers, with the fastest of the emulsion layers being located nearest the source of exposing radiation and being at least one half stop faster than the next adjacent layer and the slowest of the emulsion layers being located farthest from the source of exposing radiation and being at least one stop slower than the next adjacent layer. The three emulsions layers are each tabular grain emulsion layers with tabularities of greater than 25. At least the two emulsion layers nearest the source of exposing radiation tabular grains that contain a speed enhancing locally increased iodide content.

IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 1993-07-09
Abstract: A system and method for printer banding by which stored printer data files are processed a single time to create a set of bandable primitives corresponding to the entire page to be printed. If an object is larger than a preselected band size, the bandable primitives associated with that object are cut into banded sets of primitives corresponding to the preselected band size. The banded sets of primitives are sequentially converted to a bit-map data file for each of the bands. The bit-map data files are stored within a buffer until printed. The printer prints the entire page in the proper drawing order and allows a faster return to application than previously possible. A scrolling buffer may be used to increase efficiency of data processing by the printer.

Abstract: A process for the treatment of waste containing metal chlorides comprises heating the waste in the presence of oxygen and water at a temperature of at least 350°C. The hydrogen chloride generated is passed through a gas scrubber in which any entrained solids are removed by contact of the gas with liquid aqueous hydrochloric acid. The process is particularly suitable for wastes generated during the chlorination of titaniferous ores. The process enables the chlorides to be converted to oxides which can be disposed of with minimal environmental impact or used as a source of trace elements and also provides a convenient means of generating relatively pure hydrogen chloride or hydrochloric acid.

Abstract: The invention is to an apparatus and method for testing and burn-in of bare semiconductor chips. A molded chip carrier (10) of a high temperature plastic is utilized as a temporary holder for the chip. The carrier also has three alignment holes (15, 16, 119) that correspond to the alignment pins (24, 25, 27) in a test socket (20). The contact pads on the chip are aligned to contacts in the test socket (20) utilizing the alignment holes and pins. Before starting the testing and burn-in process, the carrier (10) with a chip is loaded into the socket (20), with the contact pads on the chip facing the tips of the contact elements in the socket. The carrier (10) is inserted into the socket (20) using the alignment pins (24, 25, 27) and holes (15, 16, 19) as guides. Clamping force is applied by the lid to ensure that the contacts of the socket maintain adequate contact force with the device contact pads during burn-in and testing. After burn-in and testing, the carrier (10) with the chip attached to it is removed from the socket (20).
