  • Patent number: 7582993
    Abstract: A motor having a reverse-rotation preventing unit, comprises: a casing; a stator fixedly-coupled to an inside of the casing; a primary rotor rotatably inserted into the stator; a motor shaft coupled to the primary rotor; a secondary rotor having a permanent magnet and rotatably inserted into an air gap between the stator and the primary rotor; a locking unit installed at an inner wall of the casing; a ratchet unit rotatably coupled to the secondary rotor, and locked or unlocked to/from the locking unit when the secondary rotor is forward-rotated or reverse-rotated, for rotating the secondary rotor in a forward direction; and a position setting unit for moving the ratchet unit to a locking position or a unlocking position by a difference between a centrifugal force generated when the secondary rotor is rotated and its restoration force. In the present invention, the motor is only forward-rotated without being reverse-rotated and thus a reliability thereof is enhanced.

  • Publication number: 20060147628
    Abstract: In a method of controlling an effusion cell in a deposition system, including a crucible, a guiding pathway and an injection nozzle, a guiding pathway and an injection nozzle are heated. The crucible is heated after heating the guiding pathway and the injection nozzle. In addition, in cooling the effusion cell including a crucible, a guiding pathway and an injection nozzle, the crucible is cooled. The guiding pathway and the injection nozzle are cooled after cooling the crucible. This method has an advantage of enhancing uniformity of the organic layer formed on the substrate by preventing the clogging of the injection nozzle by deposition material vaporized in the crucible or splashing.
