Patent EP-1061678-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TAKEUCHI HAJIME
IPC: G11B15/68
Filed: 1993-10-27
Abstract: A recording and reproducing system has two controllers.
One of the controllers compares broadcast schedule
list data with the data bases of a plurality of
recorder/reproducers to detect which recorder/reproducers
have not recorded which material, controls a cart machine to
reproduce the video and audio signals of the detected material,
and controls the detected recorder/reproducers to
record the reproduced video and audio signals. The other
controller places the recorder/reproducers in a playback mode
based on broadcast control data, and controls them to reproduce
and transmit the video and audio signals of materials at
corresponding broadcasting times. The recording and reproducing
system can automatically carry out a preparatory process
to reproduce the same material in a plurality of transmission
channels, can easily change the order in which materials
are scheduled to be transmitted immediately before they
are broadcast, and is relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
The recording and reproducing system operates highly efficiently
because any missing materials can be recorded while a
program material or a live broadcast is being transmitted.
Patent EP-1030343-A2 (EP)
Inventor: LOOMIS PAUL ASHBY
IPC: H01J37/09
Filed: 2000-02-16
Abstract: A system and method are provided for operating a variable aperture (30) for adjusting
the amount of ion beam current passing therethrough in an ion implantation system (10). The
system and method comprise means or steps for (i) measuring ion beam current at an
implanter location using a current detector (35); (ii) comparing the measured ion beam
current with a desired ion beam current; (iii) outputting a control signal (126, 128) based on
the comparison of the measured ion beam current with the desired ion beam current; and
(iv) adjusting a gap (50), through which through ion beam passes and which is defined by
opposing first and second aperture plates (44A, 44B), in response to the control signal to
control the amount of ion beam current passing therethrough. The current detector (35)
provides ion beam current feedback, and a position sensor (116, 118) may be utilized to
provide aperture plate (44A, 44B) position feedback. The system and method provide a
quick, direct, and precise mechanism for effecting significant changes in ion beam current
without requiring re-tuning of the source. The gap (50) of the aperture (44) is adjustable in
increments of about 5 microns (µm).

Abstract: In a level shift circuit that applies an on signal 25 and an off
signal 26 each consisting of pulses, to high-voltage MOSFETs 1, 2,
respectively, having their source connected to a common potential COM to
induce a voltage drop in load resistors 3, 4 in order to set or reset a RS
latch 15 to turn on or off an IGBT 17 on an upper arm of a PWM inverter
bridge circuit having a varying emitter potential, a circuit free from a
long time delay prevents an increase dV/dt in potential of an AC output
terminal OUT that results in charging of a capacity between a source and a
drain of each of the high-voltage MOSFETs 1, 2, whereby the charge current
induces a voltage drop in the resistors 3, 4 to cause the RS latch to
malfunction. 
     NOT circuits 8, 11 and a NOR circuit 13 transmit a regular on
signal, while NOT circuits 9, 12 and a NOR circuit 14 transmit a regular
off signal. A threshold for the NOT circuits 8, 9 is lower than that for
the NOT circuits 7, 10, so that when a voltage drop simultaneously occurs
in the resistors 3, 4, output pulses from the NOT circuits 7, 10 mask
output pulses from the NOT circuits 8, 9.

Abstract: A fixture for selectively masking a turbine blade  60 
includes a locator  10  with a separable receptacle  40  having
portals  50.  Guide bars  18  extend from the locator for
guiding a pair of shield carriers  20  between deployed and
retracted positions. Each shield carrier has a shield  26 
projecting therefrom. In use, a turbine blade  60 , whose
root  70  includes a fir tree attachment  72  and a damper
pocket  74 , is mounted on the fixture so that the receptacle
embraces the blade root. The shield carriers are translated
along the guide bars until the shields penetrate through the
portals and into the receptacle thus segregating the
attachment  72  from the damper pocket  74.  Masking powder  84 
is then compressed into the receptacle to envelop the
attachment while leaving the damper pocket unmasked. In one
variant of the invention, the shields are independent,
consumable shields  26a  dimensioned and shaped to
substantially conform to the size and shape of the damper
pocket  74.  The shields  26a  are made of a thermally
decomposable material and are wedged into the damper pockets
 74  prior to blade masking. During the coating cycle, the
shields  26a  decompose at a temperature lower than the
temperature at which coating vapors are produced to expose
the damper pocket to the vapors.

associated with operation of the said closing means (Z), following a law whereby the
said vacuum varies in an inversely proportional manner with respect to the variations

Abstract: An oscillator has a PMOS and a NMOS transistor connected in
series across a power supply. The output at the node
between them is fed back through the gate of the NMOS
transistor via a crystal feedback circuit. The voltage
applied to the gate of the PMOS transistor is set by a
biasing circuit to achieve a bias for the NMOS transistor of
halfway between the threshold voltage of the NMOS transistor
and the positive power supply. To do this, that voltage
level is derived from a voltage divider connected across the
power supply, comprising two equal resistors and a NMOS
transistor, having its gate connected to its drain, and is
applied to the gate of a third NMOS transistor which is
connected in series with another PMOS transistor across the
power supply. The bias for both PMOS transistors is
provided by an operational amplifier which compares the gate
voltage of the third NMOS transistor to its source voltage.
An advantage of the circuit is that it operates at low power
supply voltages.
