Abstract: A closure assembly includes a tank opening flange that surrounds a tank opening of a supply tank and a tank lid that covers the tank opening. The tank lid is operable between open and closed positions. A compression seal is attached to an underside of the tank lid and is disposed between the tank opening flange and the tank lid when the tank lid is in the closed position. A pair of guides are attached to opposite sides of the tank opening flange wherein each of the pair of guides defines a track opening to receive a plurality of sliding mechanisms attached to the tank lid. The track opening guides the sliding mechanisms and the tank lid around the tank opening flange such that the compression seal does not engage the tank opening flange when the tank lid is operated between the closed and open positions.
Abstract: Exemplary embodiments for redistribution layers of integrated circuit components are disclosed. The redistribution layers of integrated circuit components of the present disclosure include one or more arrays of conductive contacts that are configured and arranged to allow a bonding wave to displace air between the redistribution layers during bonding. This configuration and arrangement of the one or more arrays minimize discontinuities, such as pockets of air to provide an example, between the redistribution layers during the bonding.
Abstract: A first vehicle communication terminal establishes a unicast link with a second vehicle communication terminal. The first terminal monitors communication quality of the unicast link. The first terminal determines, according to the communication quality of the unicast link, whether the unicast link fails. In accordance with a determination that the unicast link fails and does not recover in a preset time, the first terminal releases the unicast link.

Abstract: One or more information maps are obtained by an agricultural work machine. The one or more information maps map one or more agricultural characteristic values at different geographic locations of a field. An in-situ sensor on the agricultural work machine senses an agricultural characteristic as the agricultural work machine moves through the field. A predictive map generator generates a predictive map that predicts a predictive agricultural characteristic at different locations in the field based on a relationship between the values in the one or more information maps and the agricultural characteristic sensed by the in-situ sensor. The predictive map can be output and used in automated machine control.

Abstract: A connector assembly may include an inner housing and an outer housing surrounding the inner housing. The inner housing may include a fluid flow path extending between a proximal port and a distal port. An exterior surface of the inner housing may include a first electrically conductive exterior surface and a second electrically conductive exterior surface. An interior surface of the outer housing may include a first electrically conductive interior surface and a second electrically conductive interior surface. The outer housing may be configured to move radially and rotationally relative to the inner housing. A processer may determine, based on whether the electrically conductive exterior surfaces contact the exterior electrically conductive interior surfaces, radial data associated with a radial position of the outer housing relative to the inner housing and rotational data associated with a rotational position of the outer housing relative to the inner housing.
Abstract: An integrated optical device includes a substrate, a waveguide structure and a grating structure. The substrate has a waveguide region and a grating region adjacent to each other. The waveguide structure is disposed on the substrate in the waveguide region. The grating structure is disposed on the substrate in the grating region. In some embodiments, the grating structure includes grating bars and grating intervals arranged alternately, and widths of the grating bars of the grating structure are varied.
Abstract: The present invention relates to improvements in known gold containing catalysts. In particular, the present invention relates to improving the stability and/or inhibition of deactivation of gold containing catalysts via the addition of an inorganic oxide, hydroxide, oxo-salt or oxo-acid. There is also disclosed a method for preparing said catalyst most suitably via an impregnation method. Such catalysts are useful in the production of vinyl chloride monomer.
Abstract: A suspension for a vehicle is configured such that, even in a situation of departing from a range (spring freedom height) in which a coil spring may be tensioned as a rebound state is added in a full rebound state, a lower end of the coil spring is coupled to a spring pad coupled to a leaf spring and continuously supported, so that the separation of the coil spring connecting a suspension arm to a body member may be prevented. The suspension includes the leaf spring provided at the suspension arm connecting a body frame to a knuckle; a spring pad coupled to the leaf spring; and the coil spring supported, at opposite ends of the coil spring, by the body member and the spring pad, the body member being located above the suspension arm.

The fixing-side cover part includes a curved contact surface to contact the film.
Abstract: A method includes forming a dummy gate stack, forming a dielectric layer, with the dummy gate stack located in the dielectric layer, removing the dummy gate stack to form a opening in the dielectric layer, forming a metal layer extending into the opening, and etching back the metal layer. The remaining portions of the metal layer in the opening have edges lower than a top surface of the dielectric layer. A conductive layer is selectively deposited in the opening. The conductive layer is over the metal layer, and the metal layer and the conductive layer in combination form a replacement gate.
