Abstract: An apparatus for holding work pieces during electroless plating has certain improved features designed for use at relatively high temperatures (e.g., at least about 50 degrees C.). Cup and cone components of a “clamshell” apparatus that engage a work piece are made from dimensionally stable materials with relatively low coefficients of thermal expansion. Further, O-rings are removed from positions that come in contact with the work piece. This avoids the difficulty caused by O-rings sticking to work piece surfaces during high temperature processing. In place of the O-ring, a cantilever member is provided on the portion of the cone that contacts the work piece. Still further, the apparatus makes use of a heat transfer system for controlling the temperature of the work piece backside during plating.

Abstract: A system and method for producing and displaying chronological data according to user specified parameters. The system incorporates language, multi media, and animation into a time display device. The system can include typical features of a conventional time display device, such as an alarm function and a display face. The system also includes a translation engine for combining the parameters and a plurality of supplemental display data, including language, multi media, and animation data, to provide a translation template. The template helps to control the presentation of chronological data in a synchronized fashion by reformatting the chronological data into a translated display format, thereby providing to the user a personalized time display. The display includes selected images and/or language to represent the passage of numerical chronological data. The parameters and the supplemental display data are alterable by the user to customize the presentation of the translated format on the display, so as to present a unique and personalized time display sequence on the display device.
