  • Patent number: 10850466
    Abstract: A dynamic balance device for a press machine includes a plurality of cam portions which transmit a vertical motion of a slide to a balance weight to move the balance weight in a reverse direction of the vertical motion of the slide. The cam portions are each movable in a direction substantially orthogonal to a moving direction of the slide, and each include a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface. The first inclined surface has an inclination angle corresponding to an inclination angle of an inclined surface formed on a member which is provided integrally with the slide and vertically moves with the slide. The second inclined surface has an inclination angle corresponding to an inclination angle of an inclined surface formed on the balance weight.

  • Publication number: 20040135211
    Abstract: According to a semiconductor device of the present invention, a field oxide film is formed so as to cover the main surface of an SOI layer and to reach the main surface of a buried oxide film. As a result, a pMOS active region of the SOI and an nMOS active region of the SOI can be electrically isolated completely. Therefore, latchup can be prevented completely. As a result, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device using an SOI substrate which can implement high integration by eliminating reduction of the breakdown voltage between source and drain, which was a problem of a conventional SOI field effect transistor, as well as by efficiently disposing a body contact region, which hampers high integration, and a method of manufacturing the same.

  • Patent number: 6649976
    Abstract: A semiconductor device in which parasitic resistance of source/drain regions can be reduced than the parasitic resistance of the drain region, and manufacturing method thereof, can be obtained. In the semiconductor device, inactivating ions are implanted only to the source region of the semiconductor layer, so as to damage the crystal near the surface of the semiconductor layer, whereby siliciding reaction is promoted. Therefore, in the source region, a titanium silicide film which is thicker can be formed.

  • Patent number: 6358783
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a MOS-type field effect transistor (SOI-MOSFET) formed on a thin silicon layer on an insulator layer. The SOI-MOSFET has a gate overlap-type LDD structure in which additional source/drain regions having an impurity concentration of 3×1017 to 3×1018/cm3 overlapping with a gate electrode are provided in the silicon layer. According to this structure, when the SOI-MOSFET is on operation, only the additional source/drain regions are depleted, so that it is possible to obtain satisfactory transistor characteristics. Additional source/drain regions in this structure are formed by combination of vertical ion implantation using the gate electrode as a mask and thermal diffusion or oblique ion implantation using the gate electrode as a mask.
