Abstract:
An electromagnetic revolutionary piston pump is disclosed. The electromagnetic revolutionary piston pump includes an inner tube, an outer tube, two annular separation plates, a plurality of pistons, and an electromagnetic coil. The inner tube has a plurality of first and second through holes, and it accommodates the abovementioned pistons to revolve inside. The outer tube has an intake opening and an exhaust opening, and it wraps the inner tube inside. In addition, the annular separation plates are disposed inside the outer tube for dividing the inner space of the outer tube into a first airproof space and a second airproof space. The first airproof space connects the intake opening and communicates the inner space of the first tube via the first through holes; the second airproof space connects the exhaust opening and communicates the inner space of the first tube via the second through holes. Moreover, the electromagnetic coil is mounted on the wall outside of the inner tube in the first airproof space for exerting magnetic force onto the pistons.
Abstract:

The present invention further relates to a stabilizer for lyophilized live vaccine and its use in improving thermostability of lyophilized live vaccine during lyophilization processing and storage period after lyophilization.
Abstract:
A resin with low polydispersity index and a process for preparing the same. The process includes polymerizing at least one monomer with an initiator and a chain transfer reagent, wherein the monomer is an acrylate monomer having at least one ethylenically unsaturated bonds or norbornene derivatives. Furthermore, a photoresist composition containing the resin composition according to the present invention can increase pattern resolution in lithography process.
Abstract:
An adjusting device comprising a foot member, a supporting member, and a moving member. The supporting member is fixed to the foot member, and the moving member includes at least a moving body, an elastic device and a button. The moving body includes two passageways, one of which is sized to receive the supporting member so that the moving body can move vertically and is coupled to the supporting member, and the other of which is sized to receive the elastic device so that the elasticity of the elastic device embeds in the passageway horizontally to clip to the supporting member so that the moving body is fixed to the supporting member. The button is movable horizontally or vertically and is buckled to the moving body, through which the user can impose a force horizontally or vertically to deform the elastic device, so that the elastic device can disengage from the supporting member for the adjustment.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for directing a process gas through a processing apparatus, such as a vapor deposition chamber. The apparatus comprises a pumping plate for a processing chamber having an annular body member wherein said body member has a first portion and a second defining a circumferential edge and a central opening. The first portion comprises a sidewall of the circumferential edge having a plurality of circumferentially spaced through holes and the second portion has comprises a lateral portion that protrudes from the circumferential edge, such that, in a processing chamber, the first portion defines a first gas flow region comprising the central opening and a second gas flow region comprising the lateral portion of the second portion.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an improved probe housing mechanism that will allow for the quick release of a probe tip from a testing tool. The invention includes a probe housing, a double cantilevered beam for holding a probe tip, and a releasable spring mechanism for holding the beam into place. The spring mechanism can be released by squeezing the spring together or by releasing a non-removable locking screw, thereby allowing the beam to be slidably removed from the probe housing for easy replacement.
Abstract:
A bed-of-nails type or needle-card type test probe has clusters of parallel buckling beams arranged in a spaced arrangement. The buckling beams are arranged and electrically connected within a cluster so that a contaminant, which may be on the device being tested, does not reduce the accuracy of the test measurements. In particular, the spacing of the buckling beams is such that multiple buckling beams are capable of contacting a single feature on an electronics package to be tested. The buckling beams deflect independently of each other in response to compressive force, and the buckling beams within a cluster are electrically connected in parallel to each other to define redundant, independent conductive paths through the buckling beams. In this way, if a contaminant prevents one of the buckling beams of the cluster from making electrical contact with the feature to be tested, the other one or more of the buckling beams of the cluster will make the required electrical connection.

Abstract:
A method of preparing biodegradable, water-resistant, moldable paper board or molded paper utensil which includes the steps of: (a) preparing a pulp aqueous slurry at a consistency of about 4%; (b) adding surfactant selected from the group consisting of rosin soap, sodium oleate, sodium stearate, and sodium palmitate to the pulp aqueous slurry; (c) adding between 25-75% weight of a biodegradable and water-resistant agent selected from the group consisting of calcium stearate, cellulose stearate, calcium palmitate and cellulose palmitate to the pulp aqueous slurry to form a slurry mixture; (d) refining the slurry mixture at a consistency of about 4% to a desired drainage; (e) diluting the refined slurry mixture and adding thereto an aggregating agent as alum to form a furnish; (f) forming the furnish to obtain a dry moldable soft paper board; (g) preheating the moldable paper board obtained in step (f) at a temperature from 110.degree. to 170.degree. C.; and (h) hot-pressing the preheated moldable paper board obtained in step (g) in a mold at a temperature from 115.degree. to 170.degree. C. for 2 to 40 seconds to obtain a molded paper utensil.
