Packaging structure and package process

A package structure and a package process are proposed in using pillar bumps to connect an upper second chip and through silicon vias of a lower first chip, wherein a gap between the first chip and the second chip can be controlled by adjusting a height of the pillar bumps. In other words, the pillar bumps compensate the height difference between the first chip and a molding compound surrounding the first chip so as to ensure the bondibility between the pillar bumps and the corresponding through silicon vias and improve the process yield. Furthermore, the pillar bumps maintain the gap between the second chip and the molding compound for allowing an underfill being properly filled into the space between the first chip and the second chip.

Wildlife Deterrent for High Voltage Supporting Members

A wildlife deterrent for a utility support structure member between two conductors includes a bracket for attachment to the supporting member, a center support piece with a variable height arm connector, and two adjustable arms pivotally attached to the arm connector. No tools are required for the adjustments or attachments. Since the effective lengths of the support and arms are adjustable, either by elongation or using different length parts, the same angle of the arms can be achieved no matter what the separation between the conductors, and the gap between the arms and the conductor can be optimal for both deterrence and flashover prevention. The different pieces forming the deterrent can be selected by the lineman to quickly build an optimal deterrent in the field.

Method for producing synthetic leather having air permeability

Disclosed is a synthetic leather produced by directly coating a water-soluble synthetic resin solution on the surface of a fabric to form a film thereon such that fine gaps formed on the fabric are partially left open to have a certain degree of air permeability. In particular, a brushing process is used for brushing the surface of a fabric using a brushing machine to raise a nap. Next, a hydrolysis-resistant and flame-retardant resin solution is coated on the back of the fabric, which is opposite to the surface on which the nap is raised, to reinforce the back of the fabric. A film forming process then applies a water-soluble polyurethane resin solution to the nap raised on the surface of the fabric to form a film on the surface of the fabric thereby producing a synthetic leather product that has air permeability properties that are superior to genuine leather.

Seat structure

A seat structure capable of dealing with both a normal posture and a resting posture and providing sufficient relaxation in the resting posture while ensuring excellent comfortableness of an occupant.According to the present invention, a back frame 20 itself is fixed to a frame support 10 but a cushion frame 30 shifts from a first position A to a second position B according to an occupant's movement and an inclination angle of a pelvis support 31 increases accordingly. The occupant's pelvis portion and a portion lower than the pelvis portion is moved forward but a part of his or her back above his or her breast is not varied. With this structure, the same effect of the resting posture, that is, the posture in which the back frame is reclined in a conventional seat structure, can be obtained. Since the back is not tilted backward, a leg room (footrest) space in a rear seat is not limited.

Process for connecting two aircraft fuselage segments by means of friction twist welding

A process for connecting two aircraft fuselage segments and a reinforcing profile arranged in the joint region of the two aircraft fuselage segments by friction twist welding using a rotating tool, wherein a cover plate is brought onto the aircraft fuselage segments to be connected above the joint regions and after the friction twist welding the remainder of the cover plate is milled off. This makes it possible to overcome significantly greater gap tolerances in the edges to be connected so that the dimension tolerance requirements for the aircraft fuselage segments can be reduced. Furthermore, a smooth surface can be achieved in the welding region.
