  • Patent number: 7701546
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an LCD comprising, preparing a liquid crystal panel which comprises a substrate assembly and a polarizing plate, wherein the polarizing plate is attached to the substrate assembly, disposing a gas injecting part towards the plate surface of the liquid crystal panel, while the gas injecting part is exposed to atmospheric conditions, and applying a pressure to the plate surface of the liquid crystal panel by injecting gas through the gas injecting part. With this configuration, the present invention provides a method to remove bubbles between the polarizing plate and liquid crystal panel without the use of a chamber.

  • Patent number: 7554349
    Abstract: A semiconductor device test handler for maintaining stable temperature in a test environment may include a loading unit that loads a plurality of semiconductor devices mounted on a test tray; a soak chamber configured to receive the test tray from the loading unit and to age the semiconductor devices at an aging temperature; and a test chamber configured to receive and test the aged semiconductor devices. The test chamber may include: a test board; a first chamber; a second chamber; one or more pipelines connected to the first and second chambers that allow a temperature-control medium to flow between the first and second chambers; a de-soak chamber that further ages the tested semiconductor devices so that the tested semiconductor devices substantially return to ambient temperature; and a sorting and unloading unit that sorts the tested semiconductor devices according to results of the test and that unloads the sorted semiconductor devices.

  • Patent number: 7101442
    Abstract: A reaction apparatus including: a main body having a reaction chamber with an upper opening thereof, a lid hinge, and a lid combined to the lid hinge, rotationally opening and closing the upper opening; a lifting member having a first end part separated from a rotation axis of the lid and rotatably combined with the lid, and a second end part rotatably combined to the main body, that moves in opening and closing directions; and a driver activating the lifting member. With this configuration, the present invention provides a reaction apparatus, with a lid that is opened and closed readily, and in which the lid parallelly contacts a sealing member, and thereby creating a vacuum in the reaction chamber with ease.

  • Publication number: 20050087139
    Abstract: An antenna includes branches having substantially identical shapes. The branches are symmetrically disposed about a central point and extend along at least two concentric patterns whose geometric centers coincide with the central point. The branches each include pattern-forming portions that lie entirely within the concentric patterns, and at least one connecting portion extending between and connecting the pattern-forming portions. Input/output terminals for allowing a voltage to be impressed across the branches are provided at ends of each of the branches.
