Patent EP-1578663-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BERTOLOTTI FABIO P
IPC: B64C1/00
Filed: 2003-04-17
Abstract: The outer skin (100) of an aerodynamic body (40) has perforations (200) arranged in particular patterns in respective spanwise extending groups or bundles (250). Each perforation is preferably a micro-slot with a length of 100 to 3000 µm and a width of 50 to 250 µm. Air is sucked through the micro-slots from the boundary layer flowing over the outer skin, to achieve boundary layer control. In each bundle, the pattern, size, orientation, and other parameters of the micro-slots are designed to achieve mutual destructive interference of flow disturbances arising due to the suction, to minimize the excitation of flow instabilities in the boundary layer. Particularly, the spatial spectrum of the perforation pattern of a given bundle is essentially absent of significant energy at predetermined wavelengths of predetermined flow instabilities that otherwise appear in the boundary layer air flow. The aerodynamic body further includes supporting ribs (300) extending parallel to the perforation bundles (250) and a perforated inner plate (400) providing a throttling control of the suction flow through groups of the bundles.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une plaque-tampon de roue sans élément de fixation, utilisée comme butée dans un parking. La plaque-tampon comprend une base dotée d'une surface inférieure, un sommet présentant une surface supérieure et un côté s'étendant autour d'un périmètre de la plaque-tampon et entre les surfaces inférieure et supérieure. La surface inférieure repose sur une surface du sol et la plaque-tampon est en contact avec la surface du sol et reste fixée sur celle-ci dans une position d'utilisation. La surface inférieure est disposée dans un premier plan et présente une certaine longueur. La surface supérieure est disposée dans un second plan généralement parallèle au premier.

Abstract: An exposure system and exposure method able to
obtain a transfer pattern matching to a high precision an
offset of an underlying pattern of an exposed member and
improving an overlay accuracy of the underlying pattern
and transfer pattern. The system and method swing an
electron beam back and forth for periodically repeated
forward direction correction and reverse direction
correction for distortion of an underlying pattern, where
"forward direction correction" means making a position
over the offset of the underlying pattern an electron
beam target position and "reverse direction correction"
means making a position not reaching the offset of the
underlying pattern the electron beam target position.
Electron beam sub-deflection correction is performed to
control an incidence angle of the electron beam to a mask
so as to be irradiated at these positions. The desired
transfer pattern is obtained by overlaying exposure by
the forward direction correction and exposure by the
reverse direction correction.

Abstract: A coverslip pick-up and transfer head (10) comprises a pair of spaced suction
cups (26) which are angled downwardly and outwardly. A spring loaded plunger (13) in an
extended condition extends below the suction cups such that when a coverslip (16) is
held by the suction cups it is flexed in a concave shape. A solenoid (15), when energised,
retracts the plunger against the spring force. In use a coverslip magazine containing
a stack of coverslips is raised under the head causing the plunger to retract until the
suction cups contact the coverslips. Vacuum is applied to the suction cups and the
magazine lowered whereby the coverslip is held by the suction cups and flexed into a
concave shape. The solenoid is energised momentarily causing the plunger to
retract and extend thereby delivering a gentle flexural pulse to the coverslip causing
any further coverslip adhered to the underside of the top coverslip to be released and
returned to the magazine. A coverslip laydown head includes a pivotal lever which is
spring biased to provide a progressive force along the coverlip as it is layed on a
slide at an ever decreasing angle to thereby cause mountant on the slide to spread
evenly over the slide with a uniform wavefront.

Abstract: A thick metal layer is formed on a semiconductor integrated circuit in multiple different deposition chambers. A first portion of the metal layer is formed in a first deposition chamber, the first thickness being approximately half the target thickness. The substrate is then removed from the first chamber and transported to a second chamber. The deposition of the same metal layer continues in a second chamber, having the same grain structure and orientation. The second portion of the metal layer is grown to achieve the final thickness. By using two different deposition chambers to form the single metal layer, layers in excess of 25,000 angstroms in thickness can be obtained. <IMAGE>

La valve d'inhalation unidirectionnelle fonctionne de façon à permettre au médicament de s'écouler dans l'espace intérieur du logement de la chambre. Un conduit d'inhalation communique avec l'extrémité de sortie de la chambre et sert à transmettre le médicament au patient. Un conduit d'évacuation est raccordé au conduit d'inhalation et une valve d'évacuation unidirectionnelle est placée dans le conduit d'évacuation. La valve d'évacuation unidirectionnelle sert à empêcher tout retour de gaz du conduit d'évacuation dans le conduit d'inhalation. Un procédé pour administrer un médicament à un patient consiste à transmettre de l'oxygène provenant d'une source de gaz à travers une chambre réservoir et un conduit d'inhalation jusqu'au patient, pendant une séquence d'inhalation, et à introduire le médicament dans la chambre réservoir. Ce procédé consiste en outre à empêcher toute transmission substantielle d'un gaz d'échappement dans la chambre réservoir pendant une séquence d'expiration, et à transmettre une partie substantielle du gaz d'évacuation dans le conduit d'évacuation pendant l'expiration. Ce procédé consiste également à empêcher toute transmission substantielle du gaz d'évacuation du conduit d'évacuation dans le conduit d'inhalation pendant les séquences d'inhalation ultérieures.
