Patent EP-1310649-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YAMAOKA SHIRO
IPC: F02D41/06
Filed: 2000-08-17
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a
compression ignition internal combustion engine capable of
making compatible an increase in compression self-ignition
operating area with an optimum output torque control in the
operating area and also smoothly switching between a self-ignition
combustion and a spark ignition combustion. The
compression ignition internal combustion engine operates by
switching between the spark ignition combustion using an
ignition device and the compression ignition combustion
which self-ignites a mixture by piston compression.
Variable valve mechanisms (15a, 15b) vary at least one of
the valve timings and valve lifts of an intake valve and an
exhaust valve. Intake air regulating means (7; 30; 32; 40,
42) vary the amount of air intake into a combustion chamber
on the upstream side of a combustion chamber inlet of the
compression ignition internal combustion engine. Control
means (1) controls the variable valve mechanisms (15a, 15b)
and the intake air regulating means (7; 30; 32; 40, 42)
during the compression ignition combustion so as to perform
the compression ignition combustion.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un système de nettoyage sur site, en deux temps ou de façon combinée, d'équipement de fabrication de semi-conducteurs (10). L'invention fait intervenir pour chaque temps deux produits chimiques fluorés distincts qui ciblent sélectivement l'élimination de différents types de dépôts s'accumulant sur les surfaces de l'équipement tels que les dépôts solides pulvérulents et les dépôts en couches compactes, ainsi qu'une combinaison des deux, s'accumulant sur les surfaces de la chambre (12) et des composants des équipements associés. Ces deux types de dépôts s'éliminent sélectivement au moyen de l'invention. Un tel ciblage sélectif des temps combinés de nettoyage aboutit à une technique de nettoyage améliorée. Selon une autre réalisation, le procédé et le système de l'invention permettent un nettoyage de la chambre (12) et de l'équipement associé en utilisant des temps séparés avec différents produis chimiques, puis en exécutant ces temps dans une variété de séquences voulues.
