БАК

Номер: RU0000186096U1

Полезная модель относится к таре, имеющей в поперечном сечении прямоугольный контур, корпус которой выполнен путем соединения двух жестких составных частей и отличается конструкцией стенок, содержащих усиливающие и упрочняющие элементы. Технический результат заключается в создании эффекта силовой рамы, удерживающей грани бака от деформаций под действием веса находящейся в баке жидкости. Бак выполнен в виде полого параллелепипеда с основанием 1, двумя одинаковыми боковыми гранями 2, 3 и 4, 5 и двумя одинаковыми меньшими боковыми гранями 6 и 7. При этом бак содержит лонжеронную раму, которая включает два выполненных из металла трехслойных лонжерона 8 и 9, каждый из которых содержит жестко соединенные между собой плоские параллельно расположенные слои (10, 11, 12 и 13, 14, 15 соответственно), и поперечины 16. Боковые грани параллелепипеда бака образованы двумя одинаковыми швеллерными коробами 17 и 18, каждый из которых имеет швеллерный в поперечном сечении профиль. Свободные ребра полок швеллеров (т.е. свободные ребра полуграней 2, 3, 4, 5) выполнены с поперечными отгибами 10, 12, 13, 15, ориентированными наружу и образующими крайние плоские элементы лонжерона 8 (т.е. его крайние плоские элементы 10 и 12) и лонжерона 9 (т.е. его крайние плоские элементы 13 и 15). Крайние плоские элементы 10, 12 и средний плоский элемент 11 жестко соединены между собой с образованием трехслойного лонжерона 8. Крайние плоские элементы 13, 15 и средний плоский элемент 14 жестко соединены между собой с образованием трехслойного лонжерона 9. Средние плоские элементы 11 и 14 лонжеронов рамы жестко соединены с поперечинами 16, образуя тем самым лонжеронную раму с трехслойными лонжеронами 8, 9 и поперечинами 16. Указанные лонжероны выполняют троякую функцию: они соединяют швеллерные коробы 17 и 18 для образования параллелепипеда бака; они являются усиленными (благодаря трехслойной структуре) аксиальными ребрами жесткости бака, повышая тем самым пространственную жесткость бака; они являются ...

АКВАРЕЗЕРВУАР

Номер: RU0000201574U1

Полезная модель относится к таре, имеющей в поперечном сечении криволинейный контур, корпус которой выполнен путем соединения двух и более жестких составных частей, изготовленных из металла, и отличается конструкцией стенок и соединениями между стенками, содержащими усиливающие элементы. Техническая проблема заключается в необходимости расширения функциональных возможностей акварезервуара за счет обеспечения возможности установки на этом акварезервуаре технических средств подготовки питьевой воды для наполнения этого акварезервуара этой водой, получаемой ее соответствующей обработкой из водопроводной воды. Технический результат заключается в том, что благодаря эффекту силовой рамы, создаваемому лонжеронами и поперечинами рамы, удерживающими большие грани емкости от деформаций под действием давления находящейся в емкости питьевой воды, обеспечивается возможность интеграции в эту емкость технических средств подготовки питьевой воды, с тем чтобы не устанавливать для этой цели отдельные модули водоподготовки, а осуществлять эту водоподготовку непосредственно на акварезервуаре при помощи технических средств, закрепленных на большей грани емкости акварезервуара с ее (емкости) наружной стороны. Акварезервуар представляет собой емкость 1, выполненную в виде полого параллелепипеда с двумя одинаковыми большими боковыми гранями 2, 3 и 4, 5, двумя одинаковыми меньшими боковыми гранями 6 и 7. Емкость 1 содержит лонжеронную раму, включающую два вертикально ориентированных лонжерона 8 и 9 и как минимум одну горизонтальную поперечину 16, соединенную с лонжеронами. Боковые грани параллелепипеда емкости 1 образованы первым 17 и вторым 18 швеллерными коробами. Свободные ребра полок швеллеров этих швеллерных коробов выполнены с поперечными отгибами 10, 13, 12, 15, ориентированными наружу и жестко соединенными между собой с образованием указанных лонжеронов на больших боковых гранях этого параллелепипеда. Акварезервуар также содержит третий швеллерный короб 19, стенка 20 которого ...

БАК ДЛЯ ЖИДКОСТИ

Полезная модель относится к таре, имеющей в поперечном сечении криволинейный, а именно прямоугольный, контур, корпус которой выполнен путем соединения жестких составных частей, отличающейся конструкцией стенок, содержащих усиливающие и упрочняющие элементы. Бак для жидкости, выполненный в виде вертикально ориентированного прямоугольного параллелепипеда, в котором две противоположные по оси X в прямоугольной системе X-Y координат плана бака боковые грани его параллелепипеда механически связаны между собой с возможностью предотвращения выпуклых деформаций этих граней в направлении оси X, причем две другие противоположные по оси Y грани этого параллелепипеда бака механически связаны между собой с возможностью предотвращения выпуклых деформаций этих других граней в направлении оси Y, при этом Х-поперечина и Y-поперечина жестко соединены между собой с образованием единой крестовой Х-Y-поперечины, механически связывающей между собой все четыре боковые грани параллелепипеда бака для предотвращения их выпуклых деформаций. Технический результат заключается в предотвращении возможных выпуклых деформаций всех четырех граней параллелепипеда бака без увеличения толщины их стенок благодаря дополнительному предотвращению возможных выпуклых деформаций противоположных по оси Y граней параллелепипеда в прямоугольной системе X-Y координат плана бака. 2 з.п. ф-лы, 1 ил.

A substrate is first rotated at a first rotation speed, and a resist solution is applied. Rotation of the substrate is decelerated to a second rotation speed lower than the first rotation speed so that the substrate is rotated at the low speed to smooth the resist solution on the substrate. Rotation of the substrate is then accelerated to a third rotation speed higher than the second rotation speed, and a solvent for the coating solution and/or a dry gas are/is supplied to the resist solution on the substrate. The solvent gas is supplied to a portion of the resist solution on the substrate thicker than a set thickness, and the dry gas is supplied to a portion of the coating solution on the substrate thinner than the set thickness. This thins the thicker portion of the resist solution and thickens the thinner portion to uniform the resist solution.

Номер: US20140022521A1
Принадлежит: Screen Semiconductor Solutions Co Ltd

An underlayer is formed to cover the upper surface of a substrate and a guide pattern is formed on the underlayer. A DSA film constituted by two types of polymers is formed in a region on the underlayer where the guide pattern is not formed. Thermal processing is performed while a solvent is supplied to the DSA film on the substrate. Thus, a microphase separation of the DSA film occurs. As a result, patterns made of the one polymer and patterns made of another polymer are formed. Exposure processing and development processing are performed in this order on the DSA film after the microphase separation such that the patterns made of another polymer are removed.
