  • Patent number: 12224175
    Abstract: A method of forming a silicon layer includes introducing a source gas containing a precursor material and a carrier gas into a reactor, controlling a gas flow of the source gas through a first main flow controller unit in response to a change of a concentration of the precursor material in the source gas, introducing an auxiliary gas into the reactor, and controlling a gas flow of the auxiliary gas through a second main flow controller unit such that a total gas flow of the source gas and the auxiliary gas into the reactor is held constant when the gas flow of the source gas changes.

  • Patent number: 11697953
    Abstract: A door that is adapted to separating two environments with different pressures and to an aircraft with such a door. The door may include a door leaf, a door frame having a door stop and a roller, and an actuating system having a latch element and an inward-moving drive system. The inward-moving drive system may include a puller shaft and a puller that is non-rotatably attached to the puller shaft. The puller may include a guide rail that moves along the roller during a rotation of the puller such that the puller moves the door leaf in direction of the first environment thereby disengaging the latch element from the door stop.

  • Patent number: 8024984
    Abstract: A device for testing decoking tools comprises means 30 for receiving the decoking tool 31 which can be connected to a high-pressure water conduit, as well as means for testing the water jet which exits from a nozzle of the decoking tool 31 following the opening of the high-pressure water conduit. It is possible to test, measure and analyse the high-pressure water jet exiting from the nozzle by means of this testing device in order to optimize the performance of the decoking tool on the basis of the results of this examination. According to the method of the invention the high-pressure water jet generated by means of the nozzles of the decoking tool is exposed to means for testing the high-pressure water jet.

  • Patent number: 8002204
    Abstract: A tool for cutting up coke in containers. The tool includes a housing mounted on a drill stem in the operating condition. The tool also includes at least one cutting nozzle for cutting and a boring nozzle for boring coke by means of a water jet, and a switching apparatus for controlling the feeding of pressurized water flowing through the drill stem and the housing. The switching apparatus includes a linearly moveable switching element, a driving apparatus and a control apparatus, which is rotatable as a function of a change of the water pressure by the driving apparatus to switch a valve to distribute the water and to pass it on. The angular position of the control apparatus controls whether the flow path of the water to the boring nozzle or the flow path to the cutting nozzle is free or obstructed.
