  • Patent number: 11942372
    Abstract: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing an integrated chip. The method includes forming a transistor structure over a substrate. The transistor structure comprises a pair of source/drain regions and a gate electrode between the source/drain regions. A lower inter-level dielectric (ILD) layer is formed over the pair of source/drain regions and around the gate electrode. A gate capping layer is formed over the gate electrode. A selective etch and deposition process is performed to form a dielectric protection layer on the gate capping layer while forming a contact opening within the lower ILD layer. A lower source/drain contact is formed within the contact opening.

  • Patent number: 10470964
    Abstract: A body-weight support system is disclosed, including an improved lift system and method. The system enables not only the support of patients undergoing rehab therapies, but including exercise modes that are both customizable and dynamic in nature, as well as a track system, wherein the system is capable of providing alternative functionality at differing locations. Other features disclosed include a system by which a movable support unit tracks or follows a patient, adjustable and variable supportive forces for users based upon, for example, a percentage of sensed body weight, and a user-interface that may be employed in a mobile, wired or wireless manner and will allow the use of multiple lift systems on a single, looped track system.

  • Publication number: 20160031582
    Abstract: A labeling machine including a substrate, an assembling element, a carrying shaft, a driving module, a labeling module, a peeling unit and a furling shaft is provided. The assembling element is disposed at one side of the substrate allowing it to be installed onto a robot. The carrying shaft is disposed on the substrate, and a label base with multiple labels is assembled on the carrying shaft. The driving module and the labeling module are disposed on the substrate. The peeling unit, the carrying shaft and the furling shaft are all disposed at the same side of the substrate. The furling shaft controlled by the driving module is used to furl the label base. When the label base wraps around the peeling unit and the driving module drives the furling shaft to rotate, the labeling module near by the pressing unit would capture the label protruded from the label base.

  • Patent number: 7028856
    Abstract: This crane control apparatus and method with swing control and variable impedance is intended for use with overhead cranes where a line suspended from a moveable hoist suspends a load. It is responsive to operator force applied to the load and uses a control strategy based on estimating the force applied by the operator to the load and, subject to a variable desired load impedance, reacting in response to this estimate. The human pushing force on the load is not measured directly, but is estimated from measurement of the angle of deflection of the line suspending the load and measurement of hoist position.
