Patent EP-1072529-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MCKELLAR JOHN
IPC: B65D51/16
Filed: 2000-07-03
Abstract: A disposable clam shell container (1), made from sheet thermoplastics material, has a
base (2) and cover (3), either of which has a side wall or walls, a part of the side wall(s) of
the base (cover) being displaced with respect to a corresponding part of the cover (or
base) to form a vent (10) (when the container is closed) to enable the escape of moist air
from a cooked product. The side wall(s) can be displaced (out of its major plane)
either inwardly or outwardly, but is preferably pressed inwardly of the container, both
to reinforce the wall and to displace a leading edge of the wall, with respect to a
corresponding part of the cover (or base). The size of the vent is determined with
regard to the cooked product to be contained. A method of manufacturing the clam
shell containers includes the step of pressing the material so as to form depressions
which form the base and cover, and to form at least one recess in a side wall of either
the base or the cover, the depth to which the recess is pressed and its lateral extent
being selected so as to adjust the size of the vent.

Abstract: A method for assigning a color symbol to an image pixel comprises selecting
a luminance value from a discrete set of quantized luminance values; selecting a
chrominance value from an ordered discrete set of quantized chrominance values;
and composing a color symbol from an index of the selected luminance value and an
index of an ordinal position of the selected chrominance value. In particular
embodiments of the invention, each discrete chrominance value is selected from a
Fibonacci lattice on a constant-luminance plane in a perceptually uniform color
space such as  Lab  or  Luv.

IPC: H01L21/68

Abstract: A wafer is transported on a blade of a robot and along a path through a port and into a
module of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The port has a transverse axis that
intersects the path. Dynamic alignment determines the position of the center of the wafer
with respect to the center of the blade as the wafer is transported, and uses two through-beam
sensors positioned along the transverse axis according to latency characteristics of the
sensors. The positioning of the sensors assures that the moving wafer will break or make a
beam of a first of the sensors and that the first sensor will generate a first transition signal
before the moving wafer will break or make a beam of a second of the sensors and before the
second sensor generates a second transition signal. The dynamic alignment may be
performed with respect to wafers having different sizes. One of the sensors is positioned for
operations with respect to both sizes of wafers, whereas the second of the sensors operates
and is positioned along the transverse axis for only one size wafer, and a third of the sensors
operates and is positioned along the transverse axis for only the other size wafer. Three
sensors may be provided for the port at each facet of each module of the semiconductor
equipment. Logic circuitry processes the transition signals from appropriate ones of the
sensors to identify the particular one of the ports through which the wafer is being
transported. The detected position information (e.g., having possible misalignment) is then
used by the robot when the wafer is subsequently positioned into a given chamber. The
subsequent positioning therefore compensates for any misalignment and ensures accurately
placed wafers.

Abstract: Based on PIDs registered in a necessary-PID table, a
second Transport Stream (TS)-packet extracting section extracts necessary
packets from a second TS. Based on packets registered in
the table, a detecting section detects unnecessary-packet
areas in a first TS. A TS-packet overwriting section
overwrites the extracted necessary packets to unnecessary-packet
areas in the first TS, performs multiplexing thereof,
and thereby generates a CTS, which is common to the TSs.
Thereby, while a broadcast program in the first TS is
viewed, image-recording of a broadcast program in the
second TS can be performed. Since the configuration can be
made using a separating section, a decoder, a digital
interface, and the like for handling single-system TSs,
reduction in the cost and size can be implemented.

Abstract: A valve insert comprises a bushing assembly, a piston
assembly and a spring. Its design prevents non-longitudinal
movement of the piston assembly as it is moved within the
longitudinal bore of the bushing assembly. This virtually
eliminates the bell clapper effect commonly suffered by many of
the valve inserts currently used in the industry. The design of
the valve insert also avoids the pressure imbalances inherent to
the prior art valve inserts. The valve insert is designed to fit
snugly and sealingly within a suitable borehole, such as the fill
and cut-out boreholes of an ECP manifold assembly.

Abstract: Liquid is discharged at a high frequency in a
consecutive manner with a liquid discharge head having
a movable member 11. A bubble 40 formed for discharge
a first discharged droplet 66a grows large into a
discharge port 4 side by the movable 11 substantially
closing a common liquid chamber 6 side in a bubble
forming procedure, and disappears fast at the common
liquid chamber 6 side by the movable member 11
releasing the common liquid chamber 6 side of a flow
path 3 in a bubble disappearance procedure, and reaches
a state to remain at the discharge port 4 side of a
heat-generating body 10. Under this state, since the
bubble 40 disappears at the common liquid chamber 6
side, a constant liquid is refilled to reach the
discharge port 4 side, and the bubble 40 does not yet
completely disappear, a meniscus is disposed
comparatively closer to a liquid discharge face. Under
the circumstances, if discharge of a second discharged
droplet 66b is arranged to start from this state, the
liquid can be discharged well at a short interval in a
consecutive manner.

Abstract: The inventive defragmentation mechanism operates on an optical disc, such as a CD-RW
or DVD re-writeable disc. The inventive mechanism determines the amount of
fragmentation 12 that the optical disc has incurred through its use. If the amount of
fragmentation exceeds a predetermined limit, then the disc is automatically defragmented 14.
The limit represents a balance between performance of the optical disc and DOW
requirements. In a preferred embodiment, during defragmentation, data from the optical disc
is collected 22 and stored on another storage medium, e.g. a hard disk. By using a storage
medium separate from the optical disc for temporary storage, additional writes to the optical
disc are avoided. The data is then reorganized 23 and written back to the optical disc 24.
