Patent EP-0947047-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WILLIAMS NORMAN
IPC: H01L21/205
Filed: 1997-12-19
Abstract: An arrangement and method for matching a load and a power source, such as an r.f. power source for a vacuum plasma processing chamber, includes a match network coupled between the power source and the load. The match network has at least two controllably variable electrical characteristics. A sensor is provided that senses at least two parameters of the load. A drive controller responds to the sensed parameters of the load to independently control varying a first one of the electrical characteristics of the match network as a function of only one of the parameters of the load, and a second one of the electrical characteristics of the match network as a function of another one of the parameters of the load. This is done until the power source and the load are in a matched condition. The separation of the match variables to establish a nearly one-to-one correspondence with the load parameters allows independent adjustment of the match variables to provide fast and unambiguous reaching of the matched condition.

IPC: H01H35/18
Filed: 1998-05-22
Abstract: The arrangement comprises a light lever (6) made from, e.g. polypropylene. The lever is asymmetrically arranged about a pivot (7). When the lever is horizontal, its shorter arm (8) just fails to contact, with its finger (11), an actuator (2) of a trip-switch (5) that controls a primary side circuit-breaker. An open-topped (20) cup (10), terminates a longer arm (9) of the lever and is filled with oil. Initially, at the end of the tank filling process the arm swings up vertically as the oil rises in the tank; its movement being halted by a tank lid stop (12). If the tank leaks (17,13), the finger rises against the actuator to apply a force (Fd) mainly due to the weight of oil in the cup, which, at a preset value, overcomes the actuator resistance and trips the circuit-breaker, optionally, after a time delay.

Abstract: Disclosed is a radioisotope stent that has increased radioactivity at the end regions of the stent
as compared to the stent's central region. To minimize the neointimal hyperplasia that may
exist to a greater extent at the ends of a stent that is implanted into an artery of a human body,
the amount of radioactivity placed at or near the ends of the stent should be increased as
compared to the amount of radioactivity over the remainder of the stent. It is an additional
object of this invention to increase the radiation field at the end of a radioisotope stent by
placing additional metal surfaces at the ends of the stent so as to have additional surfaces onto
which a radioisotope can be placed.

Abstract: A side-action mechanism is provided for forming recesses or apertures in injection molded plastic parts and which includes a slide carrier and a driver actuator therefor which are part of a modular side-action cam unit that can be attached entirely into one mold half, e.g., the core half, so as to avoid having to machine and customize the other mold half or cavity half as with prior side-action devices. In addition, the modular side-action cam unit provides a driving surface that is preferably flat which engages the bottom flat of the cavity half to obviate the alignment problems which can occur in the prior angled cam pin side-action mechanisms. The present modular cam unit is a small unit and does not take as long to install into the mold as the prior side-action cam mechanisms which required installing parts in both the cavity and core halves of the mold. The cam unit herein in its preferred form, utilizes a total of five (5) parts which are all self-contained in a housing to provide a design which can be fit in the mold in a very straightforward and quick manner by the mold builder. The actuator is spring biased so that the opening force of the mold is not used to withdraw the core pin from the mold cavity. Preferably, two-stage spring loading is utilized with a high initial spring load applied to free the coring pin from the plastic in the cavity and a lower secondary load applied for the remainder of the withdrawal travel.

Abstract: The subject matter of the invention is a rail vehicle with a head module made of a composite fiber material. For this, a joining region with height-tolerance compensating means (5) is arranged on the underframe (3) and a joining edge with longitudinal and lateral tolerance compensating means (7 and 8) is arranged on the wagon body module (2). The head module has joining edges that point toward the wagon body module (2) and the underframe (3) and is provided with reinforced sections (18, 19) that are integrated into the fiber composite material. The head module is attached to the underframe (3) and at least at the head module side walls (14) of the wagon body module (2) by means of fastening means (20, 21), which build up a pre-tensioning force, in such a way that shear-resistant connections are created. As a result, it is possible to control size deviations resulting from the production methods in order to avoid undefined internal stresses during the joining, to absorb without damage the differing heat expansions of a head module of fiber composite material and a wagon body module, as well as to produce the head modules of a fiber composite material and the connections of said modules to the wagon body module (2) and the underframe (3) so as to be not only self-supporting but also load-sharing and easy to repair.
