Patent number: 11749551Abstract: A chuck includes a chuck surface, a plurality of vacuum ports being distributed over the chuck surface. Each of the vacuum ports is open to a conduit that is connectable to a suction source that is operable to apply suction to that vacuum port. A flow restrictor is located within each conduit and is characterized by a flow resistance. The flow resistance of the flow restrictor in at least one conduit is less than the flow resistance of the flow restrictor in at least one other conduit.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2021Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Core Flow Ltd.Inventors: Boaz Nishri, Ami Herman, Nir Gurarye, Yaacov Legerbaum, Igor Birger, Alon Segal, Mart Genender, Ronen Lautman

Patent number: 11457363Abstract: A system and method for binding or assigning network access credentials to computer chip modules may include transmitting to a remote server a set of initialization data items each including an identification and a derivation of a secret value; and receiving from the remote server credential files, each including encrypted network access credentials and an initialization data item. For each computer chip module, a credential file may be installed on the computer chip module, an identification and a secret value may be installed on the computer chip module, and binding software may be executed. The execution of the binding software may accept as input the identification and a derivation of the secret value and may cause extraction of the network access credentials if the identification and the secret value when input to a formula result in a match.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2019Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: Telit Communications S.p.A.Inventors: Mihai Voicu, Ian Levine, Omer Harel, Alon Segal

Publication number: 20220177249Abstract: A web tension device includes a pressure source and a stationary housing. A translatable unit is translatable into and out of a cavity of the housing and includes an inlet that is connectable to the pressure source. A distal end of the translatable unit includes a tensioning surface with openings to enable outflow of pressurized fluid to apply a pushing force to a web in a roll-to-roll process. Proximal openings enable outflow of the fluid into a gap between the housing and the translatable unit. When tension of the web is reduced, an outward force that is exerted by pressure in the gap pushes the translatable unit outward, pushing the web outward until an inward force that is exerted by the web balances the outward force. When tension of the web increases, the inward force pushes the translatable unit inward until the inward force is balanced by the outward force.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2020Publication date: June 9, 2022Applicant: Core Flow Ltd.Inventors: Alon SEGAL, Yaacov LEGERBAUM, Eric JOELI, Ronen LAUTMAN

Publication number: 20220181191Abstract: A wafer positioning device includes at least one fixed stop that is positioned at a periphery of a clamped position on a surface of a chuck and an extendible finger. A finger extension mechanism extends the finger outward toward a center of the chuck surface, and retracts the finger away from the center of the chuck surface. The finger is configured, when a wafer is placed on the chuck surface and the finger extension mechanism is operated to extend the finger outward, to push the wafer laterally toward the fixed stop until an edge of the wafer contacts the fixed stop when a distal end of the finger is at the periphery of the clamped position.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2020Publication date: June 9, 2022Applicant: Core Flow Ltd.Inventors: Alon SEGAL, Daniel YAHIDES, Yaacov LEGERBAUM

Publication number: 20190055097Abstract: A vacuum wheel for transporting a substrate includes a fixed conduit that is connectable to a suction source. A vacuum surface on a circumference of the vacuum wheel includes vacuum openings that are distributed around the circumference, such that rotation of the wheel causes the vacuum openings to successively fluidically connect to the fixed conduit. When suction is applied to the fixed conduit, suction is applied to one or more of the vacuum openings that are currently fluidically connected to the fixed conduit. At least one contact surface on the circumference of the vacuum wheel is adjacent to, and extends outward beyond, the vacuum surface. When suction is applied to the vacuum openings, the substrate is drawn toward the vacuum surface so as to contact the contact surface without contacting the vacuum surface, creating a friction force that enables transport of the substrate when the wheel rotates.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2017Publication date: February 21, 2019Applicant: Core Flow Ltd.Inventors: Alon SEGAL, Yaacov Legerbaum

Patent number: 7869800Abstract: A portable cellular phone system is provided, wherein matched sets of algorithmically generated communication units are generated, each defining an increment of authorized communication. One set is stored on a system server, i.e. a service provider, and the pre-paid set is available for use within a portable cellular phone. The portable cellular phone, which is normally non-activated, automatically contacts the system server upon selective activation by the user, to initiate a call (outgoing or incoming). A voice recognition system allows the user to place calls and/or receive calls. During a call, the portable cellular phone and the system server allow authorized access to communication, while the communication units are decremented at the system server and at the portable cellular phone.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2010Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Telespree CommunicationsInventors: Eran Netanel, Alon Segal

Patent number: 6879409Abstract: A multiple raster image processor (“RIP”) system is described that enables faster system performance over multiple processors, and includes a zero RIP feature consisting of a language interpreter sub-RIP that interprets a print instruction file but does not process the graphics rendering steps or the post-language processing operators. A skip RIP interprets selected pages in a way that skips all or most of the processing for that page. Pages to be skipped are scheduled for a different processor, thereby saving processing time and enabling the provision of a multiple processor RIP.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2003Date of Patent: April 12, 2005Assignee: Electronics for Imaging, Inc.Inventors: Margaret Motamed, Alon Segal, Chew Yan Kong, Ravindranath Gunturu, Ghilad Dziesietnik
