  • Publication number: 20250075998
    Abstract: The super nail punch is the only product of its kind that works with not one, but two cylinders, each carefully crafted to serve a specific purpose, and to ensure the nails are installed and secured correctly. This device is uniquely designed to be safe, simple, and highly functional. It includes interchangeable heads that fit the smallest to the largest nails to be employed in the pneumatic accessory, and guarantees the nails are adequately laid and sunk into any working surface. Moreover, the super nail punch is made with durable materials, a triangulated failsafe LED light, and a safety trigger to ensure long term sustainability, when used in private or commercial settings.

  • Patent number: 10395969
    Abstract: Embodiments herein include a halo having varied conductance. In some embodiments, a halo surrounding a semiconductor workpiece may include a first side opposite a second side, and a first end opposite a second end, wherein the first side is operable to receive an ion beam from an ion source. The halo may further include a plurality of apertures extending between the first side and the second side, wherein the plurality of apertures permit passage of a portion of the ion beam to pass therethrough, and wherein the halo has a varied conductance between the first and second ends. In some embodiments, at least a group of apertures of the plurality of apertures vary in at least one of: pitch, and diameter. In some embodiments, a thickness of the halo between the first side and the second side varies along a height extending between the first end and the second end.
