Patent EP-0718882-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KARNEZOS MARCOS
IPC: H01L23/31
Filed: 1994-12-23
Abstract: A TAB Grid Array (TAG) package (100) is a package for an integrated circuit. A TAG package provides an efficient structure and method to connect a semiconductor die (101) encapsulated in the TAG package to an external printed circuit board (PCB). The TGA package uses a tape automated bonding (TAB) (103) technique to provide a generally flexible dielectric film (109) bearing a pattern of conductive traces (103a) radially emanating from a die aperture to connect to an area array of pads arranged on the tape perimeter. The pads of area array of pads are connected to the TAB traces using conventional TAB inner lead bonding techniques or alternatively, wire bonding methods, with both the semi conductor die and the TAB traces facing down towards the PCB. In one embodiment, the back of a semiconductor die and tha TAB tape are attached to a stiffener (106) via suitable bonding agents. The stiffener provides the mechanical rigidity to the package and efficiently removes the dissipated power. By using an encapsulation material (104), both the semiconductor die and the bonds between the semiconductor die and the TAB tape are protected from the environment. Solder balls (111,112) are attached on the area array of pads of the TGA package facing down. These same solderballs in turn are used to electrically and mechanically connect the package to the external PCB.

Abstract: The device according to the invention employs means for encapsulating the filter element, which act in the manner of a sphincter, means making it possible to generate an air flow through the filter element once the filter element has been encapsulated, and means which make it possible to measure at least one parameter relating to the fluid flux which passes through the filter element. The encapsulation means comprise a succession of encapsulation modules (2 to 5) arranged coaxially end to end and each acting in the manner of a sphincter and independently of the others by virtue of control means which are separate from the control means of the other encapsulation means. The invention applies in particular to measuring the drawing properties of filter plugs used in filter-tipped cigarettes. <IMAGE>

Inventor: FREZZELLA ANTONIO
IPC: B24C3/06
Filed: 1994-09-13
Abstract: The refurbishing of dirty monuments and buildings consists of projecting against the surface a granular material by compressed air. The projected material is a dry powder composed of very soft tiny granules. The powder is projected onto the surface by compressed air injectors supplied by a compressor outside a cabin mounted on a work platform which is open towards the surface. The powder is normally projected almost vertically downwards. The distance and the jet pressure are dependent upon the diverse nature of the surfaces and the adherence of the dirt so that the powder exerts on the surface a rubbing action which optimises cleaning. The injectors are automatically directed towards slots in the front edge of the cabin floor. Convection injectors under the cabin floor direct the mixture of powder and dirty waste to a separator with a filter, adjacent to the cabin. The separator automatically directs the waste to a sealed container on the ground and the powder to a container, adjacent to the separator, from where it is automatically recycled.

Abstract: The seawater to be desalinated is sprayed, in a finely divided manner, by means of nozzles (3) against a bottom side (1b) of a plate-shaped element (1). The element (1) is, for example, an aluminium plate which forms a heat transfer medium and is exposed through covering glass sheets (15) to solar radiation in a manner tracking the sun. The water sprayed onto the surface (1b) is distributed two-dimensionally over the element (1) and is evaporated by the heat stored in this element. The evaporated water passes through an outlet (27) to a condenser (10) in which the water vapour is condensed and is finally available at an outlet (12) as fresh water, for example for irrigating green (planted) areas. The seawater to be desalinated is preferably sprayed at predetermined intervals for only a few seconds against the bottom side of the element (1). To clean the element (1), seawater is sprayed against the bottom side of the element (1), for example every hour for about 1 to 1.5 minutes and, as a result, deposited salt and impurities are washed away. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne un coupleur optique flexible conçu pour coupler des signaux lumineux en provenance d'un guide d'ondes optiques placé sur une plaquette ou un substrat à un guide d'ondes optiques placé sur une autre plaquette ou un autre substrat, ou à un port optique ou un circuit intégré optoelectronique ou photonique. Le coupleur s'auto-aligne grâce à la conception des butées d'alignement prévues à proximité du guide d'ondes optiques ou du port optique. Le coupleur peut consister en un groupement de guides d'ondes optiques placé entre deux groupements de ports optiques. Ledit coupleur peut être utilisé avec tout substrat approprié pour la fabrication de guides d'ondes polymères dont de nombreux matériaux pour plaquettes. Le guide d'ondes optiques du coupleur est placé sur un substrat flexible et transparent. Ledit coupleur est efficace pour les connexions optiques entre des dispositifs situés sur des surfaces non juxtaposées. Des butées d'alignement sont utilisées de manière à aligner les ports du coupleur optique avec d'autres ports. La fabrication desdites butées d'alignement ne se limite pas aux procédés par attaque cristallographique.

Abstract: A method of forming a fusion splice between two optical ribbon cables, (1,2) comprises:
     (i) positioning end portions of the ribbon cables to be spliced in line with one another, and separated from one another by a pre-determined distance;   (ii) firing a preparation arc across the ends of the ribbon cables of sufficient energy to soften the ends of the optical fibres forming the ribbon cables and to cause the end of any fibre or fibres (12,12')(if any) that is/are the most prominent to retract;   (iii) firing a fusion arc across the ends of the ribbon cables after a defined period of time following termination of the preparation arc to fuse the ends of the fibres; and   (iv) simultaneously with, or subsequent to the fusion arc, moving the ribbon cables toward one another into contact, thereby to effect a fusion splice between the ribbon cables.   
     The method according to the invention has the advantage that since the most prominent fibres (12,12') of the ribbon cables are caused to soften more than the least prominent fibres by the preparation arc and thereby caused to retract more under the surface tension of the material (usually silica) forming the fibres, the overall deviation from perpendicularity of the end of the ribbon cables is reduced before the fusion and stuffing operations.
