摘要:
A magnetic levitation conveyor apparatus has levitation electromagnets, linear motors, and displacement sensors which are disposed outside of a tunnel, and a carriage of simple structure which is movable in the tunnel. The carriage is of canned structure for preventing gases from being generated. The carriage of canned structure allows the tunnel to have a reduced cross-sectional area and to be filled with a highly purified atmosphere such as of a high vacuum. The tunnel has substantially orthogonal branches at a branched point. In the branched point, the carriage can move, while being lifted out of contact with the tunnel partition, with a directional change from a main conveyor passage into a branched conveyor passage. The magnetic levitation conveyor apparatus is highly practical as it can control the carriage to be lifted and moved as described above.

A positioning system stops a transport car traveling along a transport path at a predetermined stop position. The system includes a pair of members coupled together by a magnetic attraction force. One of the members is disposed at the stop position, while the other of the members is disposed on the transport car, and at least one of the members is attached to the stop position or the transport car through a damper. Alternatively, the system may include two pairs of members coupled together by a magnetic attraction force, in which one of each pair of the members is disposed at the stop position, while the other of each pair of the members is disposed on the transport car, and one member of one of the pairs of members is attached to a guide mechanism which restricts a direction of movement of the one member attached to the guide mechanism caused by the action of magnetic attraction force between the members. Thereby, vibration of the transport car upon stoppage at the stop position is transmitted to the damper or guide mechanism and damped by damping action of the damper or frictional loss in the guide mechanism.

Several vacuum process steps are applied to substrates such as a wafer using a vacuum container for storing and transporting the substrates under vacuum. The vacuum container comprises a container body having a main opening for inserting a substrate and taking out the substrate, a lid engageable with the container body for closing and sealing the main opening of the container body, and a gate provided on one of the container body and the lid for performing at least one of evacuating an interior of the vacuum container and raising the pressure of the interior of the vacuum container to ambient.

A substrate transporting system is presented which can prevent contamination within a sealed box, and which does not bring in contaminants from the outside environment when installing substrates in a processing apparatus connected to a clean tunnel. The substrate transporting apparatus according to the present invention includes a box for installing one or more substrates in a clean sealed atmosphere, and a box transporting apparatus for transporting the box by loading it on a carrier and through a clean sealed space of a tunnel shape, and further includes a box transfer apparatus arranged in the tunnel-shaped sealed space for transferring the box from the exterior of the sealed space to the carrier, and a substrate transfer apparatus for transferring substrates installed within the box to a substrate processing apparatus connected to the sealed space. It has a cleaning apparatus arranged within the tunnel-shaped sealed space for cleaning the outer surface of the box.
摘要:
A process in which participants in different situations define in plural epistemological spaces can be easily accommodated. An epistemological space synthesizing part synthesizes different epistemological spaces to generate a new epistemological space, thereby juxtaposing therein business processes defined in each of the epistemological spaces. An accommodated activity extraction part extracts a combinable activity from the activities of the combined business process. A common resource extraction part extracts a combinable resource (common resource) used or produced by the extracted activity. A pre- and post-activity extraction part extracts pre- and post-activities to be accommodated. A combined business process generation part generates a business process which automatically synthesizes combinable parts from the juxtaposed business processes. An accommodating activity extraction selection part uses information acquired by the accommodation information extraction part to present an accommodating method. A user selects a suitable accommodating activity.

A document retrieval apparatus for retrieving documents from a document database in which documents are registered, and displaying the retrieved documents, the document retrieval apparatus includes: a keyword input unit for accepting input of a retrieval keyword for retrieving the documents; a document retrieval unit for retrieving the documents from the document database on the basis of the retrieval keyword; a keyword weight calculation unit for calculating those weights of the retrieval keyword which feature contents of the retrieved documents, as keyword weights; and a display process unit for displaying the retrieved documents in a state where the retrieval keyword contained in the retrieved documents is presented in display aspects conforming to the keyword weights.
摘要:
A usage status notification management apparatus includes a user management unit, a document registration management unit, a recommendation processing unit, a recommendation history management unit and a usage status processing unit. The recommendation processing unit provides to a user terminal at least a part of document information of documents registered in the document registration management unit as a recommendation document, based on a predetermined condition. The recommendation history management unit keeps and manages a recommendation processing history about the document information of the recommendation documents. The usage status processing unit generates the usage status based on document information of a document, which has been prepared using each recommendation document, based on a recommendation relation between the recommendation documents recorded in the recommendation processing history and identity of at least partial contents between documents having the recommendation relation.
