Abstract: A system for cleaning a wafer has a vacuum source, a chuck table configured to support a wafer assembly and to be in communication with both the vacuum source and the wafer assembly, such that in use a suction force is applied to the wafer assembly via the chuck table. The system also includes a sensor component configured to detect the presence of the wafer assembly on the chuck table.

Abstract: A chuck table for supporting a wafer assembly during a cleaning process comprising an axis of rotation, a first surface including an opening configured to be in communication with a vacuum source, and a second surface opposing the first surface. The second surface includes a suction opening displaced radially from both the opening in the first surface and the axis, the suction opening being in communication with the opening in the first surface such that in use a suction force can be applied via the suction opening.

Abstract: An issue is detected in the operation of a mobile machine. A user interaction system is triggered, and identifies an issue-specific process based on the detected issue. Information is surfaced for an operator to perform actions to address the issue. The actions are grouped based on whether they can be performed inside or outside an operator compartment.

The plurality of articulated bars are connected to one another in a chain-like manner. The joining mechanism is configured to connect the anchor bar to the plurality of articulated bars.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an electrogram summary. In various examples, a subset of cardiac episodes are selected and displayed based on a set of summary rules. The subset of cardiac episodes includes at least one episode from each of a plurality of episode categories with at least one cardiac episode. In some examples, the order in which the cardiac episodes selected are displayed is based on the set of summary rules. The electrogram summary may include images or information regarding each of the selected cardiac episodes.

Abstract: A collapsible securing system for securing medical oxygen cylinders for passenger seats including: (i) a base configured such as to be positioned on the passenger seat; (ii) an intermediate securing structure for oxygen cylinders connected to the base by three legs; (iii) a gripping structure, connected to the intermediate securing structure by at least one pivot in common with the intermediate securing structure, and (iv) a fitting system comprising the seatbelt and two straps secured from one end the gripping structure and from the other end thereof to the fitting of the seatbelt to the passenger seat.

Abstract: Fixed bed bioreactor with natural convection and forced draught to obtain bioactive substances by solid-state fermentation (SEF) using fungi macromycetes. This bioreactor may be from turn drum with pendulum motion and natural and forced convection to a tray bioreactor with natural convection. They are used in the production of bioactive substances as crude extracts of lignocellulosic enzymes and fungal polysaccharides obtained by using mixtures of lignocellulosic materials as substrates and macromycetes fungi as inoculum, controlling pH, humidity and particle size, inoculation rate and environmental conditions during fermentation such as temperature, relative humidity and carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration.

Abstract: Control of a vehicle to perform a task employs first control input provided by a human operator and second control input provided by an automated controller. A relationship between the first control input and the second control input is determined. Either the first control input or the second control input is used to control the vehicle to perform the task based on the determined relationship. An indicator may be used to indicate to the operator when the control input provided by the human operator is being used to control the vehicle.

Abstract: A feedback system is configured for providing a feedback sound representative of a first vehicle sound of a first vehicle and a second vehicle sound of a second vehicle. The feedback system comprises a first vehicle data bus of the first vehicle and a second vehicle data bus of the second vehicle. A first wireless communication device communicates with the first vehicle data bus and is configured to communicate first vehicle sound. A second wireless communication device communicates with the second vehicle data bus and is configured to communicate second vehicle sound. An electronic data processing system comprises a third wireless communication device configured to receive the first and second vehicle sound. A sound integration module is configured to form or determine the feedback sound from the first and second vehicle sound. A sound generator module is configured to communicate the feedback sound to a user.

Abstract: Gang clips (500) having a flat area (510), a ridge (510a), and tie bars (530b) extending from the flat area, the end portions of the ties bars aligned in a common x-direction; a plurality of gang clips having respective end portions of tie bars merged in x-direction to form an elongated chain (701) of clips; and a plurality of chains arrayed parallel to each other, free of tie bars between adjacent chains, the plurality having the chain ends tied at both ends (730a) to rails (740) normal to the chains to form a matrix (700) of clips having the rails as a stable frame.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing “T” shaped stringers for an aircraft whereby the “T” shaped stringers have a stringer web and a stringer foot, the method comprising: a first step of hot-forming a carbon fiber laminate in order to achieve semi-stringers with an “L” shaped cross-section, a second step of placing together two hot-formed “L” shaped semi-stringers in order to form a “T” shaped stringer, a third step of co-bonding the resulting “T” shaped stringer on a cured skin with an adhesive line between them, and a fourth step of curing the obtained “T” shaped stringer inside a vacuum bag using invar alloy angles as curing tools. The invar alloy angles are cut at a radius area eliminating a part of the invar alloy angles covering the stringer foot in order to define an invar alloy piece having no foot.
