Abstract: An automatic control system for a zonal ink metering device displaces ink metering elements toward a fountain roller until contact of the individual elements with the fountain roller is detected to establish absolute reference positions. Then the ink metering elements are displaced away from the fountain roller by respective predetermined amounts to obtain a desired ink profile. Once the desired ink profile is obtained, continuous printing is started. During continuous printing, the ink profile is maintained by periodically and sequentially reciprocating one individual ink metering element after another into contact with the fountain roller to reset their respective reference positions. Preferably, contact of the individual ink metering elements with the fountain roller is detected by a pair of electrical contacts in the adjusting devices for the ink metering elements. Preferably, a predetermined biasing force is applied urging the ink metering elements into contact with the fountain roller, and the adjusting mechanism applies force through the electrical contacts to displace the ink metering elements away from the fountain roller. Preferably, the ink metering elements are ink slides and electrical contact and force transmission occurs between a contact plate mounted via a rigid insulator to a substantially fixed support and the end of a threaded spindle engaging a nut fixed to the ink slide. Thus, when closure of the electrical contacts occur, the contact plate becomes grounded.

IPC: H01L21/31
Filed: 1984-06-14
Abstract: A method is provided whereby a thin stop layer (15) of a passive metal is applied uniformly over first layer metallization (12). The thin stop layer serves as a mechanical stop against the formation of hillocks between the upper surface of the first layer metal line and overlying metal lines (13). Hillocks are thus not formed on the upper surface of the first layer metal and do not punch through the overlying dielectric regions (11) to contact second layer metallization. An additional advantage of the uniform application of the thin hillock suppression layer on the first layer metal is that an effective barrier layer is provided against the diffusion of contaminants. Furthermore, this method provides the ability to recover the wafers if an error in processing occurs after deposition and processing of the second layer of metallization.

Abstract: An improved steering knuckle assembly is described which is made by combining a bearing carrier component preferably formed by casting or forging processes to a steering knuckle housing preferably made from stamped sheet metal. This composite structure replaces existing integral cast or forged units. By replacing a portion of a conventional cast or forge steering knuckle with stamped sheet metal components, significant weight savings are achieved. Further, production tooling costs are further reduced due to the comparable cost advantage of metal stamping tools versus casting, forging, and machining tooling. In addition to a cartridge wheel bearing assembly within the steering knuckle assembly, a redundant bearing mounting is provided when this mechanical trapping is coupled with an interference fit between the bearing carrier internal bore and the cartridge wheel bearing assembly. The stamped steering knuckle housing has several suspension fastening bushings, welded or otherwise, attached thereto. The structural integrity of the mounting between the suspension fastening sockets and the stamped steering knuckle housing is enhanced by providing inner reinforcing plates which are also attached to the suspension fastening bushings. Since a major portion of the steering knuckle assembly according to this invention is stamped, it is possible to use many carry over components for various motor vehicle designs simply by changing the configuration and design of the stamped steering knuckle housing.

Abstract: @ An ECG electrode impedance measuring approach is utilized which can determine, simultaneously, the condition of all electrodes in a three or five lead ECG monitoring configuration. A CPU (108) automatically selects an ECG lead configuration in which all electrodes are attached to the patient and are below an impedance threshold. if the CPU (108) cannot select a good ECG lead configuration, then the CPU (108) signals a total lead failure. Electrode impedance is determined by passing a small DC current through each active electrode and the current is returned via the reference electrode. A comparator tests the resultant offset voltage induced between each active electrode and the reference. If the offset voltage exceeds a fixed threshold, then a flag is set and transferred to the CPU (108). The CPU (108) can change the ECG lead configuration by issuing commands to an electrode lead switching network. The CPU software tests each lead configuration in a logical sequence to find one in which all the necessary electrodes are functional and a good quality ECG waveform can be processed and displayed. If a useable lead configuration cannot be found, then an alarm is activated to alert the operator to check all electrodes.

Abstract: A method for testing the hermeticity of a sealed cavity within a microelectronic, semiconductor, or other electronic component package includes pressure bombing the package within a detector-fluid bath, attempting thereby to introduce liquid detector fluid into the cavity through any leaks. A detector fluid is used whose vapor state possesses a distinctive physical characteristic that is detectable with known instrumentation. The package is then removed from the bath to permit a quantity of any detector fluid introduced into the cavity to vaporize and evolve for detection. Heating and vibrating the package may be employed to accelerate detector fluid outgassing, together with vacuum withdrawal of the vapor, and detection may employ measurement of infrared absorption. A system for detecting evolving detector fluid vapor includes both a test cell with which to confine the vapor and instrumentation for measuring infrared absorption of test cell contents. The volume of the test cell is proportioned to the cavity size to inhibit dilution of evolving detector-fluid vapor beyond the detection capabilities of the instrumentation employed.
