Title: Single crystal pulling technique - with concentric and subsequently eccentric hf heating coil
IPC: C30B15/30
Filed: 1970-12-08
Granted: 1972-07-21
Abstract: The crystal pulling can be improved by melting the upper zone of a rotating polycrystalline semiconductor bar by a concentric HF inductor coil and by shifting the latter to an eccentric position over the face. This ensures uniform melting. Crystal pulling can begin after a seed crystal has been brought into contact with the molten surface. As the dia. of the extracted single crystal grows, the coil is returned to its concentric position.

Abstract: 1320835 Housing semi-conductor devices NORTH AMERICAN ROCKWELL CORP 28 June 1971 [10 Aug 1970] 30223/71 Heading H1K As shown the plurality of coplanar leads 10, 11 which terminate at a central recess may be joined by a frame 13 and by damming strips 19, 20 used to limit the flow of a plastics material which is applied by injection or transfer moulding to form a single open ended housing depicted as notionally composed of parts 3, 23, and 4. Less desirably, the housing may be produced from separate layers. An electronic circuit or a semi-conductor device may be mounted in the housing by attaching it to a cover member 8 which is sealed to the housing by a ring 6 of an adhesive material such as an epoxy resin (preform). The device is wire bonded or connected by beam leads etc. to the lead terminations which may be coated or plated with gold or aluminium. After the attachment of the other cover member 7 (using ring 5 of adhesive material) the unit may be tested, and then resealed if not hermetic. The cover members may be of insulating material but are preferably of gold-coated copper or nickel-iron. The device may be heat bonded to a gold-plated cover with the help of a mechanical scrubbing action. The device shown may be electrically tested without complete severance from the lead frame by virtue of the presence of support members 15, 16 which are embedded in the housing. These keep the package secure within the frame and suitable for transit even after the separation of the leads 10, 11 from the frame. In a variant (Figure 6, not shown) the support members are omitted.

Title: Yarn winding device for conical packages - has compensating device to automatically adjust yarn tension according to position on bobbin
IPC: B65H54/10
Filed: 1972-10-11
Granted: 1974-05-03
Abstract: Several yarns are fed by constant speed feed devices to a winding station where they are wound onto separate conical bobbins to form conical packages. The yarns pref. pass around associated cams connected pref. to a common rotating shaft and each cam acts continually to adjust the length of the path of the yarn passing around it and so automatically adjust the tension on the yarn as a function of the point along the length of package at which the yarn is being wound. Thus, whether the yarn is being wound onto the small or large dia. end of the package, the yarn tension is maintained constant thereby reducing breakages and providing a better wound package.
