Thus, there are provided a detaching method and a detacher apparatus which enable efficiently detaching an article, such as an extremely thin wafer, having been fixed through a heat shrinkable pressure sensitive adhesive double coated sheet without cracking of the article.

A shift control apparatus for an automatic transmission provides a normal-temperature shift pattern and a high-temperature shift pattern. The high-temperature shift pattern is selected when a temperature of hydraulic oil for the transmission satisfies a predetermined condition. Once the high-temperature shift pattern has been selected, the apparatus inhibits the switching to the high-temperature shift pattern for a predetermined duration, thereby to avoid an excessively frequent hunting between the shift patterns.

An apparatus is disclosed which prevents occurrence of an engine stalling in a power train of an automotive vehicle, including an engine and a lock-up type automatic transmission. The apparatus is operative during a braking operation of the vehicle and includes an engine controller to perform an idling speed control for the engine, and a transmission controller to perform a lock-up releasing control for releasing the torque converter from the lock-up mode. When the lock-up releasing control is being performed, the engine controller continuously performs the idling speed control and thereby prevents occurrence of engine stalling.

An observation apparatus is equipped with a light-emitting portion for shining light onto an observation object, an image detector for receiving light reflected from or passing through the observation object, a light emission period establisher for establishing a light emission period for the light-emitting portion, and a light emission controller which activates the light-emitting portion to emit light synchronous with a vertical synchronizing signal of the image detector, and which terminates the emission of light from the light-emitting portion after the established light emission period has elapsed.

An observation apparatus for observing an observation object is constructed from a light source portion for emitting illumination light, a converging lens for focusing illumination light from the light source portion onto the observation object and a light-receiving portion for receiving light reflected from the observation object, wherein the light source portion includes a first arrangement of at least one light-emitting body provided on the optical axis of the converging lens, a second arrangement of at least one light-emitting body provided near the optical axis so as to shine light onto the observation object at an incidence angle which allows the light source image to completely cover the light-receiving portion (bright field illumination), a third arrangement of at least one light-emitting body provided near the optical axis so as to shine light onto the observation object at an incidence angle which allows the light source image to cover a portion of the light-receiving portion, and a fourth arrangement of at least one light-emitting body provided near the optical axis so as to shine light onto the observation object at an incidence angle which prevents the light source image from covering any of the light-receiving portion (dark field illumination), in which the light-emitting bodies are adapted for selective activation.

A lighting apparatus 1 has a convex lens 11 arranged so that its optical axis is at an angle &thgr; with respect to the normal of an observation portion 3a (e.g., a semiconductor substrate or the like), with a camera 5 arranged in the path of the reflected light rays. When a light-emitting portion 13 is arranged along the optical axis of the lens 11, a bright field illumination takes place. If a knob 29 is turned, the light-emitting portion 13 moves along a ball screw 25, thereby changing the illumination from a bright field illumination to a dark field illumination. When a knob 37 is turned, the light exiting the lens 11 will diverge if the light-emitting portion 13 is moved close to the lens 11, converge if the light-emitting portion 13 is moved far away from the lens 11, and be parallel if the light-emitting portion 13 is positioned at the focal point of the lens 11. By changing the position of the light-emitting portion 13 in this way, it is possible to change the illuminating angle and the illuminating angle distribution, and by adjusting the position of the light-emitting portion 13 in accordance with the optical characteristics of the object 3, it is possible to obtain a high contrast image. It is also possible for these adjustments to be carried out automatically by using an actuator, microcomputer or the like.

An alignment apparatus 10 comprises a table 11 which is provided rotatably in a plane, and equipped with a loading plane 12A capable of sucking a wafer W, a shift mechanism 30 that moves the table 11 in the X- and Y-axis directions, and a sensor 50 that detects the position of the peripheral edge of the wafer W. The loading plane 12A is provided so as to come to a position inside the periphery of the wafer W. On the other hand, outside the table 11, a receiving member 15, which is positioned on the generally same plane as the loading plane 12A, is provided, and the receiving member 15 is provided with a plane configuration larger than the wafer W.
摘要:
While a voltage value of the battery detected by a battery voltage-detecting part is less than a predetermined threshold voltage value for determining a low voltage state, a rotation sensor malfunction-detecting part stops calculating a vehicle speed and uses the vehicle speed calculated at a time immediately before a time when a voltage value of a battery becomes less than the threshold voltage value for determining the low voltage state, for detecting malfunction in a rotation sensor. Thereby, even if noises due to a voltage fluctuation in the battery mix with the rotation signal from the rotation sensor, since the rotation sensor malfunction-detecting part does not calculate the vehicle speed during a period of time when the voltage value of the battery detected by a battery voltage-detecting part is less than the threshold voltage value for determining the low voltage state, the vehicle speed is not miscalculated based on the rotation signal including noises, and the malfunction in the rotation sensor can be precisely detected.
摘要:
A shift control apparatus for an automatic transmission provides a normal-temperature shift pattern and a high-temperature shift pattern. The high-temperature shift pattern is selected when a transmission fluid temperature satisfies a predetermined condition. The switching of the shift pattern is inhibited if the vehicle speed is lower than a predetermined speed, even when the temperature related to the transmission or engine has been judged to be higher than a predetermined temperature.
