Patent number: 7797855Abstract: A heating apparatus 2 comprises a housing 20; a flat heating chamber 4 which is provided in the housing 2 and adapted to heat a wafer W used as a substrate, with one side of the heating chamber 4 opening for carrying in and carrying out the wafer; and a heating plates 44, 45 provided in the heating chamber 4 such that the wafer W can be heated from both above and below. A cooling plate 3 is provided in the housing 20 located in the vicinity of the opening of the heating chamber 4, for cooling the wafer W after being heated by the heating plates 44, 45. Additionally, a carrying means is provided in the housing 20 for carrying the wafer W between an upper position of the cooling plate 3 and the interior of the heating chamber 4 such that a heat treatment for the wafer W can be performed with the wafer W being held in the heating chamber 4.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2006Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: Tokyo Electron LimitedInventors: Tetsuo Fukuoka, Masami Akimoto, Takahiro Kitano, Yoshio Kimura, Shinichi Hayashi, Hikaru Ito

Patent number: 5654031Abstract: A web coating apparatus includes a supply roll of web and a wind-up spindle for receiving a discrete length of the web. Fluid is discharged from a coating die in a direction toward the wind-up spindle to coat the web as the web is wound about the wind-up spindle. A variable speed pump directs fluid through the coating die at flow rate that is proportional to the speed of advancement of the web. The apparatus is particularly useful for coating discrete lengths of orthopedic splinting and casting tape that is packaged for single patient use.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 1995Date of Patent: August 5, 1997Assignee: Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Michael D. Delmore, Gary W. Maier, Paul G. Kowski, Rodney W. Hauschulz

Patent number: 4891488Abstract: A process module wherein radiant heating is combined with the capability for generating a plasma in proximity to the wafer face. It is useful to clamp the slice to a susceptor which is of the same material as the wafer, or at least has essentially the same thermal coefficient of expansion. The susceptor is directly heated by a radiant heater, but the rate of temperature change is slow enough that no large thermal gradients between the susceptor and the wafer develop.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 1987Date of Patent: January 2, 1990Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Cecil J. Davis, Rhett B. Jucha

Patent number: 4825807Abstract: An apparatus for applying a powder of anti-sticking agent on a coil of oriented electrical steel strip formed on a coiler comprises a movable assembly moving closer to and away from the coiler, a stationary hood attached to the movable assembly and having slit-like suction ports provided along the walls thereof, one end of the suction ports opening toward the coiler, a duct-collecting duct connected to the slit-like suction ports of the stationary hood, movable hoods provided on the stationary hood to vertically open at the top and bottom of the open end of the stationary hood, and a group of electrostatic powder spray guns directed toward the coiler in the stationary hood in which they are disposed. The movable assembly recedes and the movable hoods open as the diameter of the coil increases so that a given space is always maintained between the surface of the coiled strip and the movable hoods.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 1988Date of Patent: May 2, 1989Assignee: Nippon Steel CorporationInventors: Motoharu Nakamura, Takaaki Ohsawa, Hirokazu Haga, Akira Tanabe
