Title: System to hold a group of lenses, in a katadioptric lens at a light projector for microlithography, has structured uncoupling units for suspension in the carrier with the required stiffness
Inventor: RAU JOHANNES
IPC: G02B13/14
Filed: 2003-04-11
Abstract: The system to hold a group of lenses (12) within a lens assembly has at least one uncoupling unit (14',16) to suspend the lens group in a carrier structure (13), with stiffness on a line parallel to the force of gravity. The unit is structured so that, in at least one working range, a rotary or translatory movement is blocked in at least one spatial direction to give a set static mounting. Suspension at the carrier in another direction is by a combination of uncoupling units (19) with a tangential stiffness, and a membrane (17).

Title: Managementeinrichtung für die Aufprallenergie eines Fußgängers
Inventor: SCHUSTER PETER JOHN
IPC: B60R19/18
Filed: 2003-11-11
Abstract: Eine Fußgänger-Sicherheitseinrichtung zur Anbringung an einem Kraftfahrzeug zeigt eine mechanische Antwort verhältnismäßig geringen Widerstandes, wenn sie von einem Objekt mit annähernd der Breite eines menschlichen Beines getroffen wird, und eine Antwort verhältnismäßig hohen Widerstandes, wenn sie von einem Objekt getroffen wird, das breiter als ein menschliches Bein ist. Die Managementeinrichtung für Aufprallenergie umfasst eine Rückwand (12), welche an dem Fahrzeug befestigbar ist, und eine Vielzahl von Wippelementen (14), die für eine Drehbewegung relativ zur Rückwand mit der Rückwand (12) verbunden sind. Jedes Element hat ein erstes und ein zweites Kontaktende (20a, 22a), die nach vorne von dem Träger (13) beabstandet sind. Wenn ein schmales Objekt wie ein Fußgängerbein die Einrichtung trifft, wird nur ein Ende eines jeden Wippelementes (14) zur Rückwand (12) gedrängt, und das Element dreht sich in Bezug auf die Rückwand (12), um Energie zu absorbieren und einen verhältnismäßig geringen Widerstand zu bieten. Wenn ein breiteres Objekt die Einrichtung trifft, werden beide Kontaktenden des Wippelementes (14) beteiligt, so dass das Element sich zur Rückwand (12) biegt. Die durch die Biegung verursachte Dehnung bietet einen höheren Widerstand gegenüber dem Eindringen des Objektes.

Title: Monolithic driver or liquid crystal display device for pixel signal input
Inventor: MATSUSHIMA YASUHIRO
IPC: H01L29/786
Filed: 1995-06-06
Abstract: The driver includes several thin film transistors and signal lines (127,128). The transistors have upper gates and are formed on an insulated substrate. The signal lines supply a gate electrode of each thin film transistor. Each signal line has a main section (107,108) and a coupling section (117,118).  The main section is formed by pattering of a first conductive layer of the same material as the gate electrode, with an interruption section (107a,108a) as part of the main section. The coupling section bridges the interruption section and is formed by patterns of a second conductive layer. Pref. the interruption section lies near to the active layer of the thin film transistor. The thin layer transistor may form a shift register. The transistors may also act as analog switches with the signal lines intersecting video lines.
