Title: Method of and apparatus for producing filaments or the like of glass and products thereof
IPC: C03B37/05
Filed: 1937-10-01
Abstract: 484,779. Making glass threads. SCHLESISCHE SPIEGELGLAS - MANUFACTUR C. TIELSCH GES. Oct. 1, 1937, No. 26601. Convention date, Oct. 1, 1936. [Class 56] A method. of making threads or filaments of glass, or of similar substances capable of being spun in a molten condition, consists in extracting individual drops or particles from a molten mass by rapidly-moving elements which penetrate the mass, the elements then throwing off the drops so that they travel through the air and draw behind them long filaments of the glass. The extracting-device preferably consists of a drum 4 provided with spikes or projections 5 which dip into a shallow stream of glass 1 which is withdrawn from a furnace 2 by means of rollers 3. The drum is rotated at a high speed, and the spikes enter the glass and dig out drops 6 which are thrown off by centrifugal force and draw behind them threads 6a that are guided and collected by a guide plate 7. The drops 6 fall into a channel 11 and are separated periodically from the threads by a cutting-roll 9 and a knife 10. The threads are received on a table 8 which may be in the form of a moving endless band that conveys the mat of threads to a winding drum 15. Before being received on the drum 15, the mat of threads may be enclosed in linen, jute, paper, or wire netting, a web of which may be unwound from a reel 12. The drum 4 may be situated below or in front of the stream of glass 1, or the drum may be replaced by an endless chain or belt to which the spikes 5 are fitted. The table 8 may be reciprocated laterally, or swung in its own plane, so that the threads are received on it at various angles and become entangled or felted. Several of the drums 4 may be employed to produce a single mat.

Title: Improvements in or relating to methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices
IPC: C30B31/12
Filed: 1962-07-11
Abstract: 1,003,983. Semi-conductor devices. PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd. July 11, 1962 [July 14, 1961], No. 26663/62. Drawings to Specification. Heading H1K. A method of manufacturing a semi-conductor device comprises directing a stream of gas at part of the surface of a semi-conductor body and altering the temperature of the stream in a predetermined manner so as to vary the concentration of impurities in said part of the surface. The method can be used in the manufacture of diodes, transistors, photo-diodes or solar cells. The gas may be inert, reducing or oxidizing, e.g. argon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen or water vapour and may be directed at selected portions of the surface by the use of different sizes of jet or by movement of the jet. Impurities may be introduced into the surface by either including them in the gas stream or by initially depositing them on the surface. In the manufacture of a photodiode consisting of N-type CdS, one of the metals Cu, Ag or Ni is deposited on the surface and a stream of argon at 600 C. is directed at the surface for 15 seconds in order to cause the metal to diffuse into the surface and thereby form a shallow, high concentration p-type region. The temperature of the gas stream is then reduced to that of liquid air and is passed for a further 15 seconds. The body is mounted on a heat sink maintained at or about room temperature so that only that part of the surface which is directly in the gas stream is affected. In another embodiment Su or Ge is deposited on a p-type GaSe body and a on-type region is formed when argon at a temperature of 650 C. is directed onto the surface for 50 seconds.

A limit switch having a detachable actuating head 4 which journals a shaft 6 actuated by a roller-ended lever 5 can be preset such that a switch unit 2 is actuated when lever 5 is moved to either side of a neutral position or when it is moved to one side only. The shaft 6 has flats 15 for positive drive of a coaxial cylinder 7 which has slots 8, 9 and 10 cut perpendicular to its axis so as to provide camming segments 8a, 9a, and 10a at the base of each slot. A spring urges a member into slot 10 to coact with segment 10a and urge the cylinder 7 and lever 5 to a central neutral position. L-shaped intermediate members 11a and 11b protrude into slots 8 and 9 to coact with segments 8a and 9a, respectively, and depress a push rod 3 to operate the switch unit 2 when the lever 5 is pivoted. The intermediate members 11a and 11b are guided in selected grooves (14, Fig. 5, not shown) inside the head 4 adjacent both sides of the cylinder 7. If both members 11a and 11b are inserted in grooves on the same side of the cylinder axis the lever 5 operates the switch when moved one way from its stable neutral position but has no effect when moved the other way, while if the members 11a and 11b are inserted on opposite sides of the axis (as in Fig. 5, not shown), the switch is operated by pivoting of the lever 5 in either direction.
