  • Publication number: 20150072404
    Abstract: The invention is related to an examining test paper which comprises an upper substrate, a lower substrate, an upper insulation sheet, a lower insulation sheet and a separator. Each of the upper and lower substrates comprises surface, a notch, a connection area, a reaction area, and an electrode layer. The notch is recessed on a proximal end. The connection area is adjacent to the notch. The reaction area and the electrode layer are defined on the surface. The upper and lower insulation sheets are respectively connected to the upper and lower substrates, and each comprises an upper surface, a lower surface, and a permeation portion. The separator is connected to the upper and lower insulation sheets and comprises two permeation portions corresponding to the permeation portions of the upper and lower insulation sheets, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20150020848
    Abstract: A lower electrode plate receives radiofrequency power. A first upper plate is positioned parallel to and spaced apart from the lower electrode plate. A grounded second upper plate is positioned next to the first upper plate. A dielectric support provides support of a workpiece within a region between the lower electrode plate and the first upper plate. A purge gas is supplied at a central location of the first upper plate. A process gas is supplied to a periphery of the first upper plate. The dielectric support positions the workpiece proximate and parallel to the first upper plate, such that the purge gas flows over a top surface of the workpiece so as to prevent the process gas from flowing over the top surface of the workpiece, and so as to cause the process gas to flow around a peripheral edge of the workpiece and below the workpiece.

  • Publication number: 20140361509
    Abstract: A bicycle frame assembly is formed of a head tube, a seat tube, a linking member, and a support holder. The linking member includes a first part, two second parts, and two positioning parts. The first part is connected with the seat tube. The two positioning parts are spaced from each other and extend in an interval toward the head tube from the first part to jointly form a limiting portion therebetween. The two second parts are connected with the head tube and located between the head tube and the two positioning parts. The support holder is movably mounted to the limiting portion relative to the linking member for accommodating a portable part or accessory. Therefore, the present invention facilitates that the rider can take or put the portable part or accessory from or into the support holder with his or her natural riding posture.

  • Publication number: 20130333851
    Abstract: A frame assembly capable of self-stretching fabric evenly has an outer frame, a demountable inner frame mounted in the outer frame and a positioning mechanism with retaining flaps and engaging sections disposed between the inner frame and the outer frame. A patterned fabric covers a front of the inner frame and is wrapped on an outer annular surface of the inner frame. The inner frame is then pushed into the outer frame, so the fabric is held between the outer frame and the inner frame, and is stretched and evenly smoothed by the positioning mechanism of the frame assembly. When the inner frame is pushed out of outer frame, the fabric can be changed and replaced with another fabric with a different pattern. Therefore, replacing the fabrics on the frame assembly is easy and the fabrics are not damaged.

  • Patent number: 8562750
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing a bevel edge is provided. A substrate is placed in a bevel processing chamber and a passivation layer is formed on the substrate only around a bevel region of the substrate using a passivation plasma confined in a peripheral region of the bevel processing chamber. The substrate may undergo a subsequent semiconductor process, during which the bevel edge region of the substrate is protected by the passivation layer. Alternatively, the passivation layer may be patterned using a patterning plasma formed in an outer peripheral region of the processing chamber, the patterning plasma being confined by increasing plasma confinement. The passivation layer on outer edge portion of the bevel region is removed, while the passivation layer on an inner portion of the bevel region is maintained. The bevel edge of the substrate may be cleaned using the patterned passivation layer as a protective mask.
