Abstract: A compact digital camera utilizing an array of lenslets, each viewing
a different segment of the available field of view and incorporating local signal
processing circuitry located adjacent sub arrays of photosensors is connected to a
display with connecting holes etched through a supporting substrate in order to

Abstract: A method and apparatus for minimizing excess
aluminum deposition that can build up inside a
substrate processing chamber (15) during an aluminum
CVD substrate processing operation. The method of the
present invention periodically introduces nitrogen
into the processing chamber (15) after aluminum CVD
processing of at least a single wafer in order to
minimize unwanted aluminum accumulation in various
parts of the chamber. According to one embodiment,
the present invention provides a method of minimizing
excess metal deposition inside a substrate processing
chamber after a substrate processing operation. The
method includes the steps of introducing a nitrogen-containing
passivating gas into a chamber through edge
and/or bottom purge lines (24,38) after the substrate
processing operation, and maintaining at least a
portion of the chamber at a second temperature during
the introducing step thereby reducing excess metal
build up within the chamber. In preferred
embodiments, the method is performed after removal of
the substrate from the processing chamber. In other
preferred embodiments, the second temperature ranges
from about 200-300 º C.

Abstract: An auxiliary contact device protects a power factor correction contactor
from the high current peaks produced on connection of a capacitor battery. It
has means of coupling and fastening (24) to the contactor and means of
engagement (23) with the gear of the contactor (33). When the contactor is
activated, the contacts (30, 14) of the device are closed. Then the contacts of
the contactor are closed and the contacts (14, 30) are subsequently
disconnected. The device has a frame (3) equipped with locking/unlocking
means (4) and, independently, a slide (12) bearing moving contacts (14). It has
means (8, 25, 26) for regulating the time it takes for disconnection of the
contacts (14,30), and means (15, 8, 25, 26) that increase the pressure of the
moving contacts (14) on the fixed contacts (30), the longer the travel of the
contactor. All of this makes possible the application of the device to the whole
line of contactors for which it has been designed by means of a selector (25).

Abstract: The present invention provides a solid film
lubricant useful for aerospace and other heavy machinery
applications comprising a mixture of boric acid and
molybdenum disulfide in a polymeric binder comprising a
silicone polymer and an epoxy resin is provided. Boric
acid and compounds related to boric acid can be
effectively used as inorganic lubricant components in
solid film lubricants (SFLs) in place of graphite
thereby avoiding galvanic corrosion induced by graphite.
The boric acid containing SFL provides superior
lubrication at the high stress levels common for booster
rockets and other aerospace applications, but without
inducing galvanic corrosion, or exposing workers and the
environment to toxic materials such as lead compounds.
In addition, it affords substantial savings in labor,
due to the need for only one coat, and savings in energy
due to the substantially lower cure temperature of about
250°C (450°F) compared to 550°C (1000°F) for a currently
used two coat ceramic system. There is also a
significant savings in time, hazardous waste disposal
costs and human protection costs by using the boric acid
containing SFL.

Abstract: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung für das
Laden von Datenträgern in ein Wiedergabe- und/oder Aufzeichnungsgerät,
insbesondere für scheibenförmige optische Datenträger. 
     Beim Laden von Datenträgern kommt es häufig vor, daß die zu ladenden
Datenträger nicht exakt auf den Lademechanismus, beispielsweise eine motorisch
bewegte Schublade oder Auflagefläche, des Wiedergabe- und/oder
Aufzeichnungsgeräts aufgelegt werden. Dadurch kann es beim Ladevorgang zu
Problemen kommen, die bis zur Zerstörung des Datenträgers führen können. 
     Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung werden diese Probleme durch eine
Geschwindigkeitsveränderung der Bewegung des Lademechanismus während
des Ladevorgangs vermieden. Ein nicht exakt positionierter Datenträger wird
dadurch in eine auf dem Lademechanismus vorgesehene Position gebracht. Dies
wird durch die Masseträgheit des zu ladenden Datenträgers erreicht, der durch die
Geschwindigkeitsveränderung des Lademechanismus eine Relativbewegung zum
Lademechanismus ausführt, da er nicht fest mit diesem verbunden ist.

Abstract: An optical position sensor for a vacuum tuning capacitor employs optic fibers (31, 32)
that are positioned adjacent a nut (20) associated with the guide shaft (16). A threaded lead
screw (21) is rotated to lift the nut and move the capacitor from a fully-withdrawn home
position to a tuning position. A first fiber (31) has its terminus aligned with the terminus of a
second fiber (32) to define a gap. A flag or shutter (37) on the nut is positioned in the gap to
block the light path between the fibers when the nut is in the home position, but is out of the
gap to allow passage of light otherwise. This produces normally-on signaling, giving the
position sensor a fail-safe capability. The sensor can be incorporated into a cap or cover (22)
of the tuning capacitor.

oil returning channel (84, 84') is arranged to provide
communication between a valve gear room (34) and an oil sump

middle of the oil returning channel so as to provide
communication to an opening (24B) in an immediate lower
portion of a skirt (24A) of a piston (24) being at the top
dead center. By this means, when a crank room (16) is
negatively pressurized, the oil sucked from the valve gear
room is taken through the oil inhaling channel being in

highest negative pressure is generated, and fed into the
cylinder. An opening portion (84D) of the oil returning
channel is provided with a check valve (100) for opening when
the engine is upright and closing when the engine inverted or
