  • Patent number: 10982782
    Abstract: A valve apparatus includes a valve block with a main flow path, a first valve installed on the valve block and connected to the main flow path so that when the first valve turns on, a first fluid is supplied from the main flow path to a process chamber via the first valve, and a second valve installed on the valve block and connected to the main flow path so that when the first valve turns off and the second valve turns on, a second fluid is supplied from the main flow path to a waste gas treatment system via the second valve. The main flow path is disposed parallel to a central axis passing through a center of the valve block and two opposing surfaces of the valve block perpendicularly thereto. The main flow path is disposed to be offset from the central axis toward the first valve.

  • Patent number: 8369043
    Abstract: A hard disk drive includes a base on which at least one disk recording and storing data is provided, a filter provided in an area around a corner of the base with a predetermined air flow space interposed between the corner and the filter to collect contaminant particles in air flowing due to rotation of the disk, and an air exhaust prevention unit provided in an area of the air flow space to prevent the air input to the air flow space through an inlet portion between the filter and a first corner side wall connected to the corner from being exhausted through an outlet portion between the filter and a second corner side wall connected to the corner without passing through the filter. The hard disk drive is manufactured in a simple method without changing the media of the filter and a contaminant particle collection effect is improved.
