  • Patent number: 5079430
    Abstract: An ultraviolet radiation projector of this invention includes a focusing optical member arranged between an exposure surface of an ultraviolet sensitive material and a panel surface of a CRT for emitting an ultraviolet beam to expose the exposure surface which is kept separated from the focusing optical member, thereby preventing contact between the exposure surface and the focusing optical member. An optical image forming apparatus of this invention can form a high-precision two-dimensional image for an electronic circuit pattern by exposing the exposure surface with a pattern corresponding to a desired electronic circuit pattern using the ultraviolet radiation projector as a light source. In addition, sheet-like resins cured by the exposure with the ultraviolet beam using the ultraviolet radiation projector as a light source are sequentially stacked to form a desired high-precision three-dimensional image.

  • Patent number: 4175832
    Abstract: A mirror is held against a pointed supporting member by a magnetic field of attraction between a first magnetic assembly attached to the mirror and a second magnetic assembly spaced from the first assembly and directly or indirectly attached to the supporting member. The mirror can pivot in two directions in response to magnetic control fields produced by coils around the first magnetic assembly but is prevented by interlocking magnetic fields from rotating on an axis in a third direction. The interlocking fields may be produced by assymmetrically located magnetic members attached to the first and second magnetic assemblies or by dividing both the first and second magnetic assemblies into similar oppositely polarized sectors.
