Abstract: An acceleration sensor element comprises a weight; a
support having a hollow part, which is disposed around the
weight as a center; and a flexible plate having
piezoelectric elements in which a piezoelectric body is
sandwiched by at least one set of electrodes, which is
disposed horizontally across the support to suspend the
weight at the hollow part of the support, wherein the
acceleration applied from the exterior is converted to the
deflection of the flexible plate based on the movement of
the weight arising corresponding to the acceleration, and
the direction and the rate of the acceleration are three-dimensionally
detected by electric charges generated in the
piezoelectric body corresponding to the deflection of the
flexible plate. The piezoelectric elements are disposed
only at flexible parts of the flexible plate. An
acceleration-sensor-element manufacturing method comprises a
first step of laminating and compression bonding a fault-shaped
green sheet of the weight, the support, and the
flexible plate to form a laminated layer, a second step of
integrally sintering the laminated layer to form a sintered
body, and a third step of forming the piezoelectric elements
by a thick-film method and sintering them.

Abstract: Ethylbenzene is produced from benzene and ethylene in an alkylation reactor wherein the feedstocks also contain propylbenzenes and/or components that produce propylbenzene. Polyethylbenzenes are also produced in the process. The ethylbenzene product and unreacted benzene are separated and then the propylbenzenes are separated from the polyethylbenzenes by distillation. The propylbenzenes are destroyed in a vapor-phase reactor and the polyethylbenzenes are transalkylated with benzene in a liquid or partial liquid phase at a lower temperature.

IPC: B81C1/00
Filed: 1999-11-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing calibration structures in semiconductor substrates in the manufacture of components, specifically micro-mechanical systems with integrated semiconductor electronic systems. In the method a first layer (3) is structured on a first substrate (4, 5, 6) to produce first areas (2) which are required for the function of the components. Moreover, second areas (1) are produced in the first layer (3), which represent the calibration structures. The second areas (1) present a refractive index different from the refractive index of adjoining areas. Subsequently, the first substrate (4, 5, 6) is joined with a second substrate (12) such that the first layer (3) will be enclosed between the two substrates. Then either the first or the second substrate is thinned down to a residual thickness. The substrate layer with this residual thickness constitutes, for instance, the membrane in a pressure sensor. The inventive method does not entail a weakening of the mechanical properties of supporting layers. The method may be integrated into the manufacturing process without additional process steps or complex and expensive etching techniques.

Abstract: An apparatus for feeding and providing water to animals, such as cows or goats, comprises a framework having a central axis. A plurality of reservoirs are connected to a framework in its upper aspects and feeding troughs are disposed below the reservoirs. At least one metering device for metering feed or drink or both to the feeding troughs is provided between the reservoirs and feeding troughs. Each feeding trough has a sensor for identifying an animal feeding at the feeding trough. The metering device which delivers feed or water or both to the feeding trough is controlled by a computer memory to deliver selected fodder from the reservoirs to each feeding trough in accordance for the nutritional needs of the animal which is at said trough. The control of the fodder relates both to the speed that the animal is eating and to data stored in the memory as to the nutrition needs of that animal. Vertical partitions are disposed between feeding troughs and separate same sufficiently so that the animals do not disturb each other. A magnetic separation member, which may be an electromagnet, is provided to remove any metal which may be mixed with the fodder delivered to the feeding troughs. The components of the apparatus can be connected to the framework without tools.
