Patent EP-1139396-A3 (EP)
Inventor: AMADOR GONZALO
IPC: H01L21/60
Filed: 2001-03-09
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for uniform electroless plating
of layers onto exposed metallizations in integrated circuits
such as bond pads. The apparatus provides means for holding a
plurality of wafers (101), and rotating each wafer at constant speed
and synchronously within the plurality. Immersed in a plating
solution flowing in substantially laminar motion and at constant
speed, the method creates periodic superposition of directions
and speeds of the motion of the wafers and the motion of the
plating solution. The invention creates periodically changing
wafer portions where the directions and speeds are additive and
where the directions and speeds are opposed and subtractive.
Consequently, highly uniform layers are electrolessly plated
onto the exposed metallizations of bond pads. If the plated
layers are bondable metals, the process transforms otherwise
unbondable pad metallization into bondable pads.

Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus includes a variable
power amplifier (19) and a power amplifier (20). A variable
power amplifier control unit (24) controls the gain of the
variable power amplifier (19) for controlling transmission
power of the own apparatus. At this time, a condition change
detecting unit (28) detects changes in conditions of the own
station and a counter station. Based upon the detected
condition changes, a transmission power control bit controlling
unit (26) and a transmission power control period controlling
unit (27) change a control period of a transmission power
control bit and a transmission power control range. This
transmission power control bit is inserted into a transmission
signal, then, the transmission signal is transmitted to the
counter station. The condition changes are detected based upon
reception power, transmission power, the transmission power
control bit, a change amount of control conditions, and a change
speed of the control conditions.

Abstract: Direct smelting plant for producing molten metal from a metalliferous
feed material induces a smelting vessel (11) to hold a molten metal and
slag bath beneath a hot gas space. Solids injection lances (27) extend
downwardly and inwardly through side walls of the vessel and hot
oxidising gas is directed downwardly into the gas space by a central
vertical gas injection lance (26). The plant layout is divided into four
functional zones spaced circumferentially around vessel (11) and
radiating outwardly from the vessel. Zone 1 contains an overhead hot gas
delivery duct (31) supplying gas to lance (26) and an offgas duct (32);
Zone 2 contains a forehearth (19) and forehearth tapping launder (34);
zone 3 contains slag notches (45) and slag launders (46); and Zone 4
contains a primary slag drain taphole and launder (48). This layout minimises the
potential for interference between the transport of the hot gases, the
metalliferous feed material, and the molten metal and slag.

Abstract: The state of one or more server-side control objects is managed using a
transportable state structure that is communicated between a web server and a client.
The transportable state structure may include state information, hierarchical
information, and an integrity code. The state information is related to properties of
the server-side control objects. The hierarchical information is used by the server to
locate an appropriate server-side control object in the hierarchy into which
associated state information is to be loaded. The integrity code allows the server to
determine whether the transportable state structure was corrupted during the roundtrip
between the server and the client. Prior to a response to the client, the state
information of one or more server-side control objects is recorded into the
transportable state structure for transmission to the client in the response. The
transportable state structure is then returned to the server and loaded into the server-side
control objects to restore the hierarchy to its previous state.

Abstract: When carrying out a liquid-phase reaction by using a heterogeneous catalyst, the
separation of the heterogeneous catalyst and the reaction liquid is carried out certainly and
effectively. A reaction method involves carrying out a reaction in liquid phase by using a
heterogeneous catalyst particle 30 in a reactor 10, and comprises the steps of: (a) allowing a
reaction liquid 40 supplied into the reactor 10 from such as a supplying inlet 12 to react in the
presence of the heterogeneous catalyst particle 30, and (b) passing the resultant reaction liquid 40
containing the heterogeneous catalyst particle 30 through a line screen 20 having an opening
width where the heterogeneous catalyst particle 30 is not allowed to pass substantially, and then
extracting the reaction liquid 40 separated from the heterogeneous catalyst particle 30 from the
reactor 10 by way of such as an extracting outlet 14.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method and the respective
device for pulling cones (2) or containers or similar
supports containing an edible product, in particular
ice-cream cones, out of their supporting trays (1). 
     According to the invention at least one blast of air
under pressure is played against the upper edge of the supporting
tray (1), just near the air-casing between supporting tray and cone
until it causes the lifting of the latter, after which
the locking of pincers (6) around the cone is controlled,
which cone leans against the arms of said pincers (6) and
can be removed. 
     Ideally, between the arms of the pincers a sensor (7) is
positioned, which sensor (7) is able to detect the presence
of the cone (2) and allow the operation of the pincers (6) in
due time.

Abstract: An apparatus (1) for treatment with radiation for personal care, comprising a
housing (2) provided with a UV source (3) and a wall (4) made of UV-transparent material
which covers the housing (2) and which has a central area (7) and side areas (8) adjoining the
central area (7). The wall (4) has a lower transmission to radiation with a wavelength < 320
nm near the central area (7) than near the side areas (8). Thus the effective radiation energy
of radiation with a wavelength < 320 nm reaching the side portions of the irradiation plane
(9) approximates a value of 0,14 W/m 2  (European standard EN 60335-2-27), while the
effective radiation energy of radiation with a wavelength < 320 nm reaching the central
portion of the irradiation plane (9) also approximates this value. This results in a practically
uniform distribution of effective radiation energy of radiation with a wavelength < 320 nm
over the radiation surface (9) as a whole. A tanning result which is as uniform as possible is
thus achieved in a time period which is as short as possible.

wireless modem selects the best access point as a function of
communication link quality and relative load levels to maintain
adequate service quality. and to react to changes in load levels.
After an initial selection, the wireless modem may continually
monitor quality/load conditions to determine whether to select a
new access point.

Abstract: The object is to provide a leg protection device for vehicle
occupants which has an airbag of which thickness when
inflated is small so that the airbag can be rapidly inflated
even with a gas generator having small generating capacity
and which can sufficiently receive and stop occupant's legs.
As a vehicle equipped with a leg protection device (1) comes
into a frontal collision, a gas generator (5) is actuated to
spout out gas through gas ports (5b) so as to initiate the
inflation of an airbag (4). Gas from the gas generator (5)
first flows into a first chamber (21) so that the first chamber
(21) starts to inflate. Subsequently, the gas in the first
chamber 21 flows through the inlets (22a) to inflate the second
chambers (22). According to the initiation of inflation of
the airbag (4), an interior panel (2) is pressed by the airbag
(4) so as to be torn along tear lines (6), forming flaps (25).
The airbag (4) is deployed into a vehicle cabin to extend along
the front surface of the interior panel (2).

width of each tooth formed on the first gear, and the
outer diameter of the toothed disk can be larger than the
outer diameter of the first gear. The first gear and the
toothed disk mesh with a second gear such that as the
second gear rotates, the toothed disk and the first gear
also rotate. However, the toothed disk and the first gear
rotate at different speeds because the difference in the
number of teeth formed thereon. Because the teeth formed
on the toothed disk have a larger circumferential
thickness and a larger outer diameter than the teeth
formed on the first gear, a tight meshing engagement with
the second gear is provided. This tight meshing
engagement, in combination with the frictional engagement
of the toothed disk with the first gear, takes up backlash
