Patent FR-2763745-A1 (FR)
Inventor: LEFORT OLIVIER
IPC: G01P15/08
Filed: 1997-05-23
Abstract: The invention concerns the production of machined silicon micro-sensors, in particular accelerometers for assistance to navigation in aircraft, and pressure sensors. In order to improve the production of certain active parts of the sensor, and particularly of a beam (32) forming a resonator, whereof the width and thickness characteristics should be well controlled, the method consists in: producing, by micro-machining the silicon on a first plate (30), a beam with thickness equal to the required final thickness, said beam being coated on its top surface with a mask defining the required final width; assembling the plate (30) with another (10); oxidising the two surfaces of the beam to coat them with a thin protective layer; removing, by vertical directional etching, said thin protective layer on the top surface without removing the mask already there; working on the silicon in the zone exposed by the previous operation, using vertical directional etching on the top surface, until all the part of the beam not protected by the mask is eliminated thereby producing the beam with the required width.

Title: Dispositif et procede pour le positionnement d'une lentille afin d'etaler un faisceau optique d'un systeme d'imagerie
Inventor: MENARD ALAN W
IPC: B41J2/44
Filed: 1997-07-02
Abstract: Un mécanisme d'étalement de faisceau optique comprend une série de lentilles (27, 28, 29) fixées de façon mobile à un chariot (30) d'un système d'imagerie pour faire varier l'étalement d'un faisceau optique et ajuster sa focalisation. Un moyen de balayage est lui aussi fixé au chariot pour réfléchir le faisceau optique venant d'un support disposé à l'intérieur d'une chambre d'exposition ou allant vers un tel support. Le chariot est monté à coulissement sur une poutre (38) pour balayer le support (18). Le chariot inclut une série de coussins d'air (120, 122) en vue d'un déplacement sans friction de la lentille le long du chariot. Le mécanisme d'étalement de faisceau comprend en outre un organe (136) en forme de bras qui vient en prise en séquence avec chaque lentille et maintient la lentille dans une relation fixe par rapport à la poutre. Afin de déplacer chaque lentille vers sa position appropriée sur le chariot, l'organe en forme de bras vient en prise avec la lentille. Le coussin d'air correspondant est actionné pour permettre un déplacement de la lentille tandis que le chariot reçoit un ordre de se déplacer d'une distance prédéterminée pour l'étalement et la focalisation nécessaires du faisceau optique. L'actionnement du coussin d'air est ensuite interrompu pour accoupler magnétiquement la lentille au chariot à sa position appropriée. L'organe en forme de bras se dégage de la lentille.

Title: Ergonomically designed control panel for crop sprayer
Inventor: BALLU PATRICK
IPC: A01M7/00
Filed: 1997-10-23
Abstract: The panel has a multi-position selector switch for selectively changing the operating positions of the spray ramp, these operations including height regulation and the folding or unfolding of the boom on either side of the ramp. The lower half (12) of the panel (11) has a 7-position selector switch (14) at one end and the execution switch (22), biased to the central, neutral position at the other. The deployment phases are characterized in 6 pictograms (15-20), each with an associated tell-tale lamp (LI5, LI6, etc.). A 7th pictogram (21) is paired with the 6th; these cover the locking and unlocking of the folding boom array. Two hands are needed for a simultaneous switch operation - deployment being permissible only when stationary, the operator is not driving. The upper panel (13) covers 3 functions available while spraying, generally to avoid obstacles - steering, boom swinging and raising booms independently. The 3 functional zones (13a,13b,13c) contain appropriate pictograms (24,25;28,29;32,33) and actuating switches (23,27 and 30,31). The centrally articulated conduits and supporting booms fold back, doubled up, against a central chassis, for road travel.
