Patent EP-1468776-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KHANDROS IGOR Y
IPC: G01R1/067
Filed: 1997-05-15
Abstract: Spring contact elements are fabricated by depositing at least one layer of metallic material into openings defined in masking layers deposited on a surface of a substrate which may be an electronic component such as an active semiconductor device. Each spring contact element has a base end, a contact end, and a central body portion. The contact end is offset in the z-axis (at a different height) and in at least one of the x and y directions from the base end. In this manner, a plurality of spring contact elements are fabricated in a prescribed spatial relationship with one another on the substrate. The spring contact elements make temporary (i.e., pressure) or permanent (e.g., joined by soldering or brazing or with a conductive adhesive) connections with terminals of another electronic component to effect electrical connections therebetween. In an exemplary application, the spring contact elements are disposed on semiconductor devices resident on a semiconductor wafer so that temporary connections can be made with the semiconductor devices to burn-in and/or test the semiconductor devices.

Abstract: A PAR lamp (10) may be formed with a highly domed lens (20). The
domed lens (20) enables increased beam spread to as much as 90 degrees
from the lamp axis. This fills in the shadow gaps between adjacent
lamps. The domed lens may also extend beyond the forward edge of a
recessed fixture (82) and thereby washing the adjacent walls with light
instead of leaving shadowed regions intermediate adjacent fixtures.

Abstract: A broadcast/communication convergence system and a method for transmitting and receiving Ethernet data using the same is disclosed. The system is equipped with an optical network unit performing a time division multiplexing operation on the Ethernet data switched by a network switch and a plurality of broadcast data units, transmitting a resultant signal of the operation to a corresponding subscriber set-top box, and providing data from the subscriber set-top box to the network switch,. In one aspect of the invention, the optical network unit produces a length of an Ethernet data frame provided from the network switch. An encapsulation operation is carried out by generating data length information and inserting the generated length information into an Ethernet data frame. Encapsulated Ethernet data is transmitted to the subscriber set-top box. The subscriber set-top box carries out a time division demultiplexing operation for a signal transmitted from the optical network unit, and separates the signal into the Ethernet data and broadcast data. When a framing bit is detected from the frame of the Ethernet data based on a result of the separation, the length information is detected from the Ethernet data frame. The Ethernet data frame is counted on the basis of the detected length information and recognizing the Ethernet data. A preamble bit and a start-of-field delimiter (SFD) are inserted into the recognized Ethernet data and the original Ethernet data is recovered.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for processing mail pieces to automatically associate a manually entered postage to a class of service and to a system which implements the method. The method includes receiving a postage amount that is to be applied to the mail pieces and searching stored rate tables for one or more classes of service having a postage rate that matches the entered postage amount. The matching classes of service are displayed and the user selects one of the classes of service. The entered postage amount is applied to the mail pieces and transaction information for each is stored. A corresponding weight for each of the matching classes of service may also be displayed to the user. Mail pieces may be processed individually or in a batch using the discussed method and system.

Abstract: A tool for assistance in removing tires from wheel rims. The tool has a body with a lateral opening (6) for engaging the flange of a wheel rim. A roller (281) is mounted on one end of the tool body to exert a downward pressure on the tire sidewall, and a handle (102) protrudes on an end opposite the cavity and fulcrum from the roller. The roller displaces the tire bead from its seat against the rim when removing or installing the bead of a tire that is already at least partly on the rim, or supports the second bead of a tire whose first bead is axially outside of the rim relative to the wheel rotation axis. Displacing the bead from its seat opens a radial clearance between the bead and the rim, so that the tire can be displaced eccentrically to relieve tension on the bead due to prying on a diametrically opposite side of the tire. The roller has a rotation axis (240) tangential to the rim, and thus is positioned to facilitate eccentric displacement of the tire on the rim by radial displacement in the area of the roller.

Abstract: Disclosed is a clamping apparatus for a disk drive. The clamping apparatus includes a clamp selectively attached to a turntable to fix a disk, and formed with a hook wing protruding in a centrifugal direction along an outer circumferential edge thereof, a hook section provided with a clamp through-hole through which the clamp is penetrated and which has a diameter smaller than that of the hook wing, and hooking and supporting the hook wing of the clamp, and an unclamping protrusion provided one side between the hook section and the hook wing, and first contacted with the hook section or the hook wing when the disk is unloaded to apply unclamping force. The unclamping protrusion is located at a position most distant from a lifting center of a pickup base having the turntable on which the disk is seated. Thereby, clamping force by which the clamp clamps the disk increases relatively, while the unclamping force for separating the clamp from the turntable decreases relatively, so that operational reliability of the disk drive is improved.
