Publication number: 20010034138Abstract: When etching is performed with respect to a silicon-containing material by using a dry etching apparatus having a dual power source, the application of bias power is initiated before oxidization proceeds at a surface of the silicon-containing material. Specifically, the application of the bias power is initiated before the application of source power is initiated. Alternatively, the source power and the bias power are applied such that the effective value of the source power reaches a second predetermined value after the effective value of the bias power reaches a first predetermined value.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2001Publication date: October 25, 2001Inventors: Takeshi Yamashita, Takao Yamaguchi, Hideo Niko

Patent number: 6116725Abstract: An ink cartridge has an ink holding chamber, an ink holding member that is placed inside the ink holding chamber and that holds ink, an ink supply outlet that connects the ink holding chamber and the outside; and a protruding member that is placed on the wall of the ink holding chamber in which the ink supply outlet is formed and that protrudes into the ink holding chamber. In the ink cartridge, the protruding member that protrudes into the cartridge presses onto the ink holding member from the area around the ink supply outlet. Consequently, the ink holding member becomes compressed by means of the protruding member, so that the ink held in the ink holding member flows out easily from the ink holding member. Further, in the ink cartridge, it is preferred that the protruding member be located such that it surrounds the supply outlet and that an ink pathway where the protruding member does not exist be created in at least part of the area around the ink supply outlet.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 1998Date of Patent: September 12, 2000Assignee: Minolta Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hitoshi Kato, Takeshi Yamashita

Patent number: 6066590Abstract: The present invention is directed to a harmful gas removing agent used for removing harmful gas such as CO, NO.sub.x, and O.sub.3 from exhaust gases ventilated from automobile tunnels and underground parking, thereby preventing air pollution. The harmful gas removing agent, solving the problems of the conventional adsorbents and catalysts, is capable of efficiently removing NO.sub.x with no need of pre-treatment of adding O.sub.3 to the exhaust gas being treated, as well as being capable of satisfactorily removing CO and O.sub.3 from exhaust gases even at high humidity, and its removing activity lasts for a long time. Furthermore, the harmful gas removing agent can be regenerated by being exposed to hot air at relatively low temperature, thereby being repeatedly used, and is hard to be poisoned by SO.sub.x contained in the exhaust gas.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 1998Date of Patent: May 23, 2000Assignee: Sued-Chemie Nissan Catalysts Inc.Inventors: Yuji Horii, Toshinori Inoue, Takeshi Yamashita, Hidetaka Shibano, Yoshiyuki Tomiyama, Kimihiko Yoshizaki

Patent number: 4504706Abstract: A rotary pulse switch is disclosed in which contact pairs each consisting of a movable contact and a fixed contact are disposed along a radial face of the rotor so as to be closer to the center than the outer circumferential edge of the rotor. In this way, the width of a case into which the contact pairs fit can be made only slightly larger than the diameter of the rotor. A contact operating member for pushing a movable contact extends from the side of an operating member disposed in the proximity of the outer circumferential surface of the rotor between the two contact pairs and at substantially the same height as a projection of the operating member. Thus, the height of the case can also be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 1983Date of Patent: March 12, 1985Assignee: Alps Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yuji Watanabe, Takeshi Yamashita
