Patent number: 6711956Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, an apparatus and a method for regulating exhaust pressure in an evacuation system of a semiconductor process chamber are provided. The method comprises steps of generating a first pressure in the semiconductor process chamber with the evacuation system, monitoring the first pressure to generate a first signal, determining a set point for the exhaust pressure responsive to the first signal, and regulating the exhaust pressure by a controller till reaching the set point. The key aspect of the present invention is to maintain the equilibrium of the chamber pressure and the exhaust pressure by implementing an exhaust controller to control the gas flow rate introduced into the evacuation system. In other words, when the chamber pressure is increased, the gas is introduced into the evacuation system at an increased flow rate. On the other hand, when the chamber pressure is decreased, the gas is introduced into the evacuation system at a decreased flow rate.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2001Date of Patent: March 30, 2004Assignee: Macronix International Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yu-An Lin, Long-Wen Lin, Wen-Cheng Lai, Chang-Ping Lin

Patent number: 5238620Abstract: A grip sleeve is manufactured by sleeving a tubular nylon fabric lining on a cylindrical mandrel of appropriate length. The mandrel is then provided on a lower mold half which is formed as an elongated shell that is semi-circular in cross-section. The lower mold half has an inner surface which is formed with a pair of spaced and curved radial projections that support the mandrel. An upper mold half is provided on top of the lower mold half and matches with the lower mold half. The upper and lower mold halves cooperate with the mandrel to define an enclosed annular receiving space. One of the upper and lower mold halves is formed with an inlet to access the receiving space. A molding composition of elastomeric foam is introduced into the receiving space via the inlet so as to fill the receiving space. The molding composition solidifies to form an elastic and perspiration holding layer on the fabric lining, thereby producing the grip sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 1992Date of Patent: August 24, 1993Inventors: Ching-Fa Wu, Long-Wen Jou
