Title: Thickness measuring apparatus, thickness measuring method, and wet etching apparatus and wet etching method utilizing them
Inventor: TAKAHASHI TERUO
IPC: H01L21/66
Filed: 2001-01-19
Abstract: At each measurement time, reflected light from a
semiconductor wafer W or the like by measurement light
from a measurement light source 11 is coupled to
reference light from a reference light generating
section 14, and interference light is detected by a
photodetector 15. A raw thickness value calculating
section 16b selects two light intensity peaks
corresponding to the upper and lower surfaces of the
wafer W from a light intensity distribution between an
interference light intensity and a reference optical
path length and calculates a raw thickness value. A
statistical thickness value calculating section 16c
executes statistical processing including data sorting,
determination whether the raw thickness value falls
within an allowable numerical value range, and
determination of a thickness change line, thereby
obtaining a statistical thickness value. With this
arrangement, a thickness measuring apparatus and
thickness measuring method capable of measuring the
thickness of a semiconductor wafer during execution of
wet etching independently of the presence of an
etchant, and a wet etching apparatus and wet etching
method using the thickness measuring apparatus and
method are implemented.

Abstract: A top sealing plate used for a battery includes a filter,
a cap, and a valve body. The filter has a valve hole and
upper opening; the cap has a convex portion and a flange
portion disposed around the convex portion; the opening end
of the upper opening of the filter has a bend portion; and
the outer periphery end of the flange portion of the cap and
the bend portion are caulked and joined to each other. The
caulked portion includes both states of contact, that is, a
strong contact portion and a weak contact portion, between
the surface of the outer periphery end of the flange portion
and the bend portion. By this configuration, the electric
contact resistance between the cap and the filter will be
greatly reduced. In addition, the contact resistance is
stabilized at a low level. Further, the internal resistance
of the battery is lowered, thereby improving the battery
performance.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un volant comprenant une demi-sphère et une jupe évasée, cette dernière comprenant une partie interne et une partie externe en matière synthétique. La partie externe comporte une pluralité de tiges (4, 5) et de nervures (1, 8, 16, 17) reliant les tiges, ainsi que des ailerons (6, 13, 14, 15) en saillie par rapport aux bords des nervures (1, 16, 17) selon un angle large (9, 19, 28) par rapport à la face externe des nervures (1, 16, 17) et au flux d'air (20) passant le long de la ligne normale de vol du volant. Cette configuration augmente la résistance de la jupe externe et améliore le déplacement du volant. Les ailerons sont en saillie au moins par rapport au bord arrière (10, 22, 23) des nervures et peuvent l'être également par rapport au bord avant (24). L'invention permet d'obtenir une pluralité de cannelures (2-3, 11-12) formées dans la jupe externe, les ailerons (6, 13, 14) étant en saillie par rapport aux bords arrière (10, 22, 23) des nervures sur la face droite (3, 12, 18) des cannelures. Les ailerons peuvent également être en saillie par rapport aux bords avant des nervures sur la face gauche (11) des cannelures. La combinaison de l'angle de la cannelure et de l'angle de l'aileron procure au volant une vitesse de rotation élevée. Les ailerons sont logés dans l'espace entre les cannelures et le périmètre intérieur du tube dans lequel les volants sont rangés.

Abstract: The invention relates to an axial piston engine (1), comprising a housing (2) in whose inner compartment (4) a cylinder drum (17) and a swash plate (26) located axially adjacent thereto are situated. Several piston bores (21) which extend approximately parallel to the central axis of the cylinder drum (17) are located in the same, pistons (23) being displaceably guided in said piston bores. The ends of said pistons facing towards the swash plate (26) are supported on said swash plate (26). A driving shaft (7) is rotatably mounted in the housing (2) and is connected to an engine part in a rotationally fixed manner by a multitooth coupling (19) comprising teeth (43a, 44a) and tooth spaces (43b, 44b) which alternate regularly in a peripheral direction and which engage with each other. At least one feedthrough channel (45) which extends essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the drive shaft (7) and from one side of the multitooth coupling (19) to the other is located in the area of said multitooth coupling (19). The aim of the invention is to obtain a flow feedthrough and/or a mechanical feedthrough from one side of the multitooth coupling to the other while ensuring that the multitooth coupling is stable and simple to produce. To this end the feedthrough channel (45) is located between at least one tooth crown surface (43d) and a tooth space bottom (44d) located opposite.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for making water-absorbed
rice in which the water-absorbed rice with water fully
absorbed without complete α-conversion attains water
absorption quickly and uniformly. 
     The problem has been solved by charging dipped rice in
an aqueous solution, conducting jumping heating in which rice
grains are jumped one by one in a hot aqueous solution and
circulated therein, charging the rice into a container or a
closed container along with an aqueous solution for water
absorption, putting a lid on the container or sealing the closed
container and cooling the same. 
     It has been possible to provide, when the water-absorbed
rice obtained by the invention is heated later with a microwave
oven or the like, uniform cooked rice having a flavor of
fresh-boiled rice without a hard portion.

Title: Sealing system for media-carrying parts
Inventor: JOST HARRY
IPC: F16J15/02

Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing system for media-carrying parts, especially for use in asepsis, comprising a sealing ring (14), preferably a toroidal sealing ring, which is placed on a sealing seat for the purpose of sealing the parts. Said sealing seat is constituted by a sealing channel (22) that substantially surrounds the sealing ring. The sealing channel (22) is composed of sealing surfaces (21a, 21b) of both parts (12, 13) and defines between said parts and between said sealing surfaces a sealing groove (30) into which the sealing ring (14) is deformed when the parts are axially braced against each other until they come into contact. A separating joint (41) adjoins the sealing channel on a side facing away from the sealing groove (30). The sealing channel (22) has at least one expansion chamber (35, 57a, 57b) that deviates from the undeformed cross-section of the sealing ring. Said expansion chamber (35, 57a, 57b) is arranged substantially opposite the sealing groove (30). The sealing ring (14) is deformed into the expansion chamber (35, 57a, 57b) by outer influences, especially by the bracing force for joining the parts.
