Abstract: A semiconductor manufacturing equipment may include a process chamber for treating a substrate; a front-end module including a first transfer robot, wherein the first transfer robot may be configured to transport the substrate received in a container; a transfer chamber between the front-end module and the process chamber, wherein the transfer chamber may be configured to load or unload the substrate into or out of the process chamber; and a cassette capable of receiving a replaceable component capable of being used in the process chamber. The front-end module may include a seat plate configured to move in a sliding manner so as to retract or extend into or from the front-end module. The cassette may be configured to be loaded into the front-end module while the cassette is seated on the seat plate.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a cylindrical secondary battery in which a positive electrode terminal is adhered and fixed to a cylindrical can by an insulating sheet, and thus sealing between the cylindrical can and the positive electrode terminal can be facilitated due to an increased contact area.

Abstract: A cylindrical secondary battery includes: an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate and a second electrode plate; a cylindrical case having a disk-shaped top portion and a side portion extending from the top portion, the cylindrical case accommodating the electrode assembly; a cathode terminal extending through the top portion and insulated therefrom; a first current collector plate electrically connected to the first electrode plate and the cathode terminal; a second current collector plate electrically connected to the second electrode plate and the side portion of the cylindrical case; a cap plate coupled to the side portion and insulated therefrom; and an insulation tape between the top portion of the cylindrical case and the first current collector plate and covering the first current collector plate.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method for inducing a prediction motion vector and an apparatus using the same. An image decoding method can include: a step of determining the information related to a plurality of spatial candidate prediction motion vectors from peripheral predicted blocks of a predicted target block; and a step of determining the information related to temporal candidate prediction motion vectors on the basis of the information related to the plurality of spatial candidate prediction motion vectors. Accordingly, the present invention can reduce complexity and can enhance coding efficiency when inducing the optimum prediction motion vector.

Abstract: A molding method for a cover window includes: locally heating a peripheral portion of a glass substrate around a central portion of the glass substrate to a temperature of about 610° C. to about 670° C., forming a cover window by pressing the glass substrate, and annealing and cooling the cover window. Accordingly, a cover window in which each of edges has an outwardly convex curved surface through a glass substrate may be formed. In addition, the surface roughness of a cover window formed through a glass substrate may be improved.

Abstract: A conveying apparatus using an attraction means. The apparatus includes: a conveyor belt conveying a material; a driving unit driving the conveyor belt; a plurality of attraction means provided in the conveyor belt and configured to allow the material into close contact with an outer circumferential surface of the conveyor belt; and a control means configured to control operation of the attraction means and including a pneumatic part, a horizontally movable member moving horizontally by the pneumatic part, a vertically movable member coupled to the attraction means, and a cam part converting a horizontal movement of the horizontally movable member into a vertical movement of the vertically movable member.

Abstract: A washing machine having a centrifugal fan which may increase a discharge flow rate. The washing machine includes a centrifugal fan adapted to cool a motor, wherein the centrifugal fan comprises a circular plate connected to a shaft of the motor, and a plurality of blades radially arranged around a center of the circular plate, each of the blade includes an inlet portion extending to form an inlet for external air passing therethrough, and a guide bent and inclined from the inlet portion, and an outlet portion bent from the guide to form an outlet for the external air.

Abstract: An electronic power-measurement device with intelligent agent includes a power measurement unit, an intelligent agent and a communication unit. The device can commonly assess data necessary for works, as an intelligent agent is mounted on the electronic power-measurement device, although the manufacturers of the devices and hardware structure based on types of the devices are different from each other. Also, the device can select only data suitable to a high level service and can selectively assess thereto, in order to minimize extraction of unnecessary data when assessing data necessary for works, as the entire data structure is previously designed in tree form, such that each step of the tree can be used as address assess to corresponding data.

Abstract: A camera having a automatic focus system for focusing a lens on an object to be photographed which comprises a device for measuring a plurality of distances between the object and the camera. The camera determines an auto focus distance based on a selected one of the predetermined conditions each representing a relationship between each of a plurality of measured distances under a respective circumstance. The camera controls the movement of the lens at least partially based on the auto focus distance.
