US Patent:

61892718, Feb 20, 2001

Filed:

Dec 7, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/207117

Inventors:

Daniel L. Christensen - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

E04B 102

US Classification:

52233

Abstract:

A building system which uses a plurality of interlocking members which can be used to construct an unlimited number of structures which can be assembled, disassembled and used by children and adults. The building system requires no tools, fasteners or adhesives, yet creates rigid and sturdy structures of all sizes, through interlocking ends and edges.

US Classification:

156643

Abstract:

A method is disclosed for the planarization of a semiconductor device structure by a two stage planarization process which comprises: applying a dielectric layer over a first conductive layer, spin coating an organic layer onto the first dielectric layer, etching the device in a plasma etching process to substantially remove the organic planarization layer, then etching the device in a plasma etching process which etches the exposed dielectric layer to substantially remove all of it, removing the remaining organic planarization layer, followed by the application of a second dielectric layer under bias sputter deposition conditions. The bias sputter deposition fills trenches and eliminates peaks in the remaining first dielectric layer as it builds up the second dielectric layer. The process planarizes the dielectric layer without thickness variations dependent upon conductor layer pattern density.

US Classification:

Abstract:

A preferred form of a swing couch (10) is disclosed including a frame (18) suspended by a flaccid member (22) secured to ends (20) of the frame (18) and extending around and being supported by a pulley (24). Frame (18) can be adjusted between vertical to horizontal positions and held by clamping the flaccid member (22) adjacent pulley (24). Upholstery material (12) is draped between and secured to upper and lower horizontal cross beams (14, 16) of the frame (18) by having the free ends of the material (12) clamped to the beams (14, 16) while being wrapped around at least two corners of the beams (14, 16) to allow minimal adherence securement. A seat support (38) is adjustably suspended generally parallel to and slightly below the lower beam (16) by flaccid members (40) extending from ends (20). A back support (26) is pivotally mounted within the frame (18) about its upper edge by an axis which is parallel to and adjacent the upper beam (14). The lower edge of back support (26) is adjustably supported by flaccid members (28) extending from ends (20).
