    Abstract: A looped circuit for generating a variable bias voltage. The looped circuit includes a variable current source having a current output that is dependent upon the variable bias voltage. The looped circuit also includes a capacitor that is periodically coupled to the current source for a predetermined period of time, wherein the current source charges the capacitor during each predetermined period of time. At least one subcircuit is provided for varying the variable bias voltage, wherein the variable bias voltage automatically causes the current source to charge the capacitor to a predetermined reference voltage during each predetermined period of time. Accordingly, the generated bias voltage will vary with temperature and other external variables. However, the ratio of the current produced by the current source divided by the capacitance of the capacitor is equal to the ratio of the predetermined reference voltage divided by the referenced predetermined period of time. This ratio remains constant regardless of variations in process and temperature.

    Abstract: An improved electrostatic filter particularly for use in high performance clean rooms for the semiconductor industry is achieved by forming a layer of wires in a "plane" having corrugations along an axis perpendicular to the axes of the wires. The "plane" is designed to mate with the corrugations of a mechanical filter placed immediately upstream in the air flow path. Alternate wires of the layer are maintained electrically at opposite polarities to strengthen the fields and the corrugations permit closer movement of particles to the wires without unacceptable constriction of the air flow. A multilayered filter produces attractive field configurations, like those achieved by corrugated single plane filters herein, in the absence of a corrugated geometry.

    Abstract: A gas flow restriction device for restricting the flow rate of heated gas in a conduit. The flow restriction device is essentially a two piece assembly that includes a valve housing and a valve gate structure that sits within the housing. The valve housing has a first end, a second end and an open central passage extending from the first end to the second end. The open central passage includes a internally tapered section proximate its first end and an internally threaded section proximate its second end. The valve gate structure has a first end a second end, a externally tapered section proximate its first end and an externally threaded section proximate its second end. The valve gate structure passes into the open central passage of the valve housing so that the externally tapered section of the valve gate structure is disposed a predetermined distance within the internally tapered section of the valve housing. At this location, the externally threaded section of the valve gate structure engages the internally threaded section of the valve housing. By rotating the valve gate structure, the threaded interconnection is effected and the valve gate structure moves in relation to the valve housing.
