  • System and apparatus for efficient deposition of transparent conductive oxide
    Patent number: 9460925
    Abstract: A substrate processing system that includes a substrate processing chamber having one or more sidewalls that at least partially define a substrate processing region and extend away from a bottom wall of the substrate processing chamber at an obtuse angle; a source material holder configured to hold a source material within the substrate processing region; a plasma gun operatively coupled to introduce a plasma beam into the substrate processing region; one or more magnets operatively arranged to generate a magnetic field that guides the plasma beam to the source material holder; and a substrate carrier configured to hold one or more substrates within the substrate processing region.

  • Circuit for dispensing windshield washer fluid for a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 8925834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a circuit for dispensing windshield washer fluid for a motor vehicle. According to the invention, the dispensing circuit is characterized in that it includes a float (11) housed inside a chamber (12) of a stationary body (13) so as to occupy a top position enabling the flow of the windshield washer fluid toward the nozzles, and a bottom position in which the chamber (12) is inoperative, an in which the float blocks the flow of the windshield washer fluid to the tank (2). The invention can be used in the automotive field.
