  • Patent number: 10083856
    Abstract: Semiconductor structures including isolation regions and methods of forming the same are provided. A first layer is formed over a substrate, where the first layer comprises a semiconductor material. First and second trenches are etched, with each of the first and second trenches extending through the first layer and into the substrate. A wet etchant is introduced into the trenches, and the wet etchant etches a first opening below the first trench and a second opening below the second trench. Each of the first and second openings extends laterally below the first layer. The first and second openings are separated by a portion of the substrate adjoining the first and second openings. An oxidation process is performed to oxidize the portion of the substrate adjoining the first and second openings. An insulating material is deposited that fills the openings and the trenches.

  • Publication number: 20170291291
    Abstract: A pneumatic tool with changeable exhaust direction includes a tool main body and a direction change assembly. The tool main body includes a housing portion having a first exhaust channel. The direction change assembly includes an air guidance member and an adjustment member. The air guidance member is mounted onto the housing portion, and a second exhaust channel is formed with the air guidance member. The adjustment member is installed with a sealing ring. The adjustment member generates an axial movement relative to the air guidance member and along a first axis to move away from the air guidance member in order to open the second exhaust channel or to allow the sealing member to abut against the air guidance member in order to close the second exhaust channel. Accordingly, the exhaust direction is adjustable during the use of the pneumatic tool in order to facilitate different processing operations.

  • Publication number: 20170237286
    Abstract: A power supply system which connects a DC consumer to an AC supply includes an AC-DC converter and a UPS. The AC-DC converter has an input to which alternating current from the AC supply is applied and an output at which DC current is developed. The UPS has an input to which direct current from the AC-DC converter is applied and an output at which DC current is developed. The DC current developed at the output of the AC-DC converter and DC current developed at the output of the UPS are applied to the DC consumer selectively in parallel with each other or exclusively to each other.

  • Patent number: 9449184
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method for controlling access to content in a social networking website, wherein a connection is established between a first user and a second user on the social networking website. Content on the profile pages of the first user is categorized into a first content category and a second content category. The first content category includes content created before the connection between the first user and the second user was established. The second content category includes content created after the connection between the first user and the second user was established. Content in the first content category is also categorized into a first subcategory and at least one second subcategory. Access by the second user is restricted to the first content category. Specifically, the second user is prevented from viewing content in the first subcategory and permitted to view content in the second subcategory.
