Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a process for depositing diamond-like carbon (DLC) films by cathodic arc evaporation (CAE), wherein the high energy of CAE metal ions causes the cracking reaction of the hydrocarbon gases fed into the vacuum reaction chamber and then results in the deposition of DLC films having high hardness and lubrication. Due to the metallic constituents doped in the DLC films, the films also have good toughness. Moreover, prior to the feeding of hydrocarbon gases for the DLC deposition, the same metal arc source may deposits one or more interlayers of metal, metal nitride, or metal carbide on the substrate so as to further enhance the adhesion of the DLC films to be deposited.

Abstract: A high-speed multi-task system which configures with an industrial personal computer and a numerical controller. The industrial personal computer handles the human-machine interface, visual function and main process control, while the numerical controller controls the movements of hardware and input/output. Conventional serial communication port RS-232 is employed for data transmission between the two sub-systems. The high-speed multi-task system of the present invention is built to work in a real-time extension environment to optimize the control and efficiency of a wire bonding system.

Abstract: A transparent plastic solder strip being provided with a plurality of solder holes for each accommodating an amount of solder paste therein. These solder holes have a very small diameter and are uniformly and densely distributed throughout the solder strip in a specific pattern, such that a proper density of the solder hole on the solder strip is obtained to always allow sufficient number of solder holes to be covered in an applied area for sufficient amount of solder paste to be melted by laser beams and transferred from the solder strip to islands on a BGA carrier for bonding the carrier to a semiconductor device. It is no longer necessary to register the solder holes with the islands on the carrier to complete the solder transfer.

Abstract: A zero insertion force CPU connector is constructed to include a connector body, a plurality of terminals installed in respective terminal slots in the connector body, and a sliding cover covered on the connector body and adapted to support a CPU and carry the CPU into contact with the terminals in the connector body, wherein the terminals each have a head formed of a supporting strip, a springy pressure strip, and a space defined between the supporting strip and the springy pressure strip and adapted to receive the pins of the CPU carried on the sliding cover; the sliding cover has a plurality of bottom rods adapted to force the springy pressure strip of each terminal toward the corresponding supporting strip, enabling the pins of the CPU to be respectively positively maintained in contact between the supporting strip and springy pressure strip of each terminal.

Abstract: A four-in-one golf putter mainly comprises a body, two wing parts, and an insertion piece, which are made of different materials in different specific gravities, for organizing various combinations with different positions of center of gravity in order to meet requirements of different golfers.

Abstract: A camera and binocular preamplifier combination and method for photographing distant objects with a relatively inexpensive camera are disclosed. The combination includes a relatively inexpensive camera such as a disposable camera and a relatively small pair of binoculars. One optical system in the binoculars is positioned against the lens of a camera and in general alignment with the camera lens and a photograph taken.

Abstract: A fluid type heating apparatus with safety sealing has a metallic heat exchanging main body, a heating unit embedded within the metallic heat exchanging main body, a plurality of fluid conduits extended along the lengthwise direction of the metallic heat exchanging main body, a groove at the center of the metallic heat exchanging main body and housing the heating unit enclosed by an insulating layer, a front cover at front side of the metallic heat exchanging main body and a rear cover at rear side of the metallic heat exchanging main body. The front and rear cover has a plurality of guiding slots coupled to the conduit to control circulation of the fluid.

Abstract: An immunity testing device formed of a thin sheet of material folded to three portions, and the two end portions; named “front cover”0 and “back cover”; fold back to different sides of the center part; named base seat; to provide protection on both sides of the base seat. Two absorbent sheets bridged with a test paper are fixed on the side of base seat that's facing the front cover. A hole is present at the position of the first absorbent sheet on base seat for specimen application. The front cover is disposed with observation cover plates at the position corresponding to the test paper and/or water-absorbing sheets for observation of test result as well as for preventing pollution before, and after use. The test paper is pre-embedded with antibodies/antigens to capture the corresponding antigens/antibodies in the test specimen as in Immunity method. The used testing device can be burned down to ensure environmental protection.

Abstract: A fasten-on air bag device comprises an air bag housing which is attachable to the seat restraints and can be fastened-on by occupant; a crash sensing system for sensing and evaluating the crash data; an inflator installed inside the air bag housing, a plug-in signal-transmission receptacle and a detachable plug affixed to the air bag housing. By coupling with the plug-in signal transmission receptacle, the fasten-on air bag device can be utilized not only on the front seats but also the rear seats, and can be applied on all kinds of vehicles such as cars, buses, trains and airplanes. The direction of explosion is guided by the guiding core to assure the deployment of the air bag go outward and forward away from the occupant's body instead of aiming toward the occupant's body. In addition, the protective shield lining and the spread plastic lobes further protect the occupant's body. Therefore, the explosive expansion of the air bag would less likely cause harm to the occupant.

Abstract: The invention, a kind of improved three-way valve structure is to install a ball valve inside the main structure of a three-way valve. The top of the ball valve equips a clip base and the lateral sides of its opening equip guiding tracks. The bottom of a turning bar equips a clip base. After assembling a washer on a tuning bar, it is placed inside the valve majority. The ball valve is installed inside a valve majority by using a guiding bar. The clip groove on a ball valve fits the clip base on a turning bar for positioning. After moving guiding bar backward and placing a washer, finally a positioning ring is fitted for completion of assembly and effect of convenient assembly is achieved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cushioning mechanism for an exercise apparatus disposed between a turning shaft under the main body of the exercise apparatus and a supporting element. The clamping cushioning mechanism includes two clamping bodies corresponding in form each of which contains a clamping element between which a receiving part is formed for fastening a cushioning soft pad. Thereafter, a rolling shaft is disposed at the relatively external side of each of the two clamping bodies so that, when a frame is loaded and pressed down, the stress will be transmitted from the turning shaft to two clamping bodies while the clamping bodies sink because pivoting holes at the relative center are loaded, however, the rolling shaft at two side thereof create an upward reactive force by means of their contact with the supporting element so that the clamping elements of the clamping bodies are enable to be clamped inwardly in order to achieve an expected cushioning effect.
