Inventor: GOODMAN MATTHEW B
IPC: C23C16/458
Filed: 1998-11-02
Abstract: Improvements in the design of a low mass wafer holder are disclosed. The
improvements include the use of peripherally located, integral lips to space a wafer or other
substrate above the base plate of the wafer holder. A uniform gap is thus provided between
the wafer and the base plate, such as will temper rapid heat exchanges, allow gas to flow
between the wafer and wafer holder during wafer pick-up, and keep the wafer holder
thermally coupled with the wafer. At the same time, thermal disturbance from lip contact with
the wafer is reduced. Gas flow during pick-up can be provided through radial channels in a
wafer holder upper surface, or through backside gas passages. A thicker ring is provided at
the wafer holder perimeter, and is provided in some embodiments as an independent piece to
accommodate stresses accompanying thermal gradients. A self-centering mechanism is
provided to keep the wafer holder centered relative to a spider which is subject to differential
thermal expansion.

Abstract: An accumulation type fuel injection system (1) of a
diesel engine (2) calculates a dimensionless interval (I 0 ) by
dividing an injection interval (I) between a pilot injection
and a main injection by a cycle (T) of pressure pulsation in
an injection correcting operation for correcting the main
injection. The fuel injection system (1) calculates
correcting values corresponding to the dimensionless interval
(I 0 ) from correction maps and calculates final main injection
quantity (Q M ') and timing (t M ') by adding the correcting
values (C Q , C t ) to main injection quantity (Q M ) and timing (t M )
calculated based on operating conditions of the engine (2).

Abstract: In order to provide a collision detecting device which can enable the accurate and
early determination of a collision with a vehicle or the like and to provide a passive
safety system using this collision detecting device, a low-rigid portion (52) and a
crash box (53) are arranged ahead of a high-rigid portion (50) in a front portion of a
frame (30). The front end of a rod (44) is fixed to a bumper (54). The rod (44) is
inserted into a magnetic detector (64) disposed on the high-rigid portion (50). In the
rod (44), a number of magnets are aligned in the longitudinal direction of the rod (44)
such that their N poles and S poles are alternatively arranged. As a vehicle collides,
the crash box (53) is first deformed so that the rod (44) moves backward, whereby a
collision can be detected before large acceleration is generated.

Abstract: An improved self contained automatic bladder control device (1) includes
a valve assembly mount (2) for releasibly receiving a valve assembly (20). The
preferably cylindrical mount (2) has a textured outer surface (16) designed to
interact with urethral tissue. Thus the mount (2) can be placed nonsurgically into
a urethra and in time it will be held against movement by the tissue interaction
with the textured outer surface (16), yet the mount will still be removable without
surgery. Two embodiments of valve assemblies are disclosed, each of which
provides a sphincter-like operation of the bladder control apparatus. A first
embodiment is designed to use Bernoulli's law to hold open the valve apparatus
after a short period of muscle contraction. The second embodiment is designed
to use the fact that the force generated by hydrostatic pressure is directly related
to the area on which it impinges, to accomplish the desired valve holding period.

Abstract: An optical scanning device 65 is adapted to bring a deflector mirror
plane 651 into independent pivotal motions about a first axis and a second
axis perpendicular to each other. A mirror driver section including a first
axis driver and a second axis driver is so controlled as to bring the
deflector mirror plane 651 into pivotal motion about the first axis thereby
deflecting a light beam L for scanning along a main scan direction. On
the other hand, the deflector mirror plane 651 is pivotally moved about the
second axis thereby to adjust the scanned beam L for its position on a
photosensitive member 2 with respect to a subscan direction. Thus, even
if the scanned beam is deviated from a reference scan position with respect
to the subscan direction due to component tolerances or assembly errors,
such a deviation can be corrected.
