A semiconductor boat or carrier fabricated of stress relieved quartz bar having a rectangular cross section. The carrier has parallel elongate side bars and a parallel elongate lower bar, all of which are joined at the ends thereof by transverse lengths of quartz bar also having rectangular cross section. Spaced slots are formed in the inwardly facing edges of the elongate side and bottom bars so that groups of three slots, one in each bar, lie in parallel planes for receiving semiconductor wafers in three point contact in the carrier. End bars attached to and extending between the side bars and central bars extending between each of the side bars and the bottom bar are provided for obtaining rigidity in the carrier. These end and central bars are also rectangular in cross section. The method includes stress relieving a quartz billet, cutting the quartz billet into elongate quartz bars having rectangular cross section, welding the elongate bars in spaced parallel relation to form an open ended cradle and plunge cutting spaced slots simultaneously in both side bars and the bottom bar.

The terrain objects within the data base for an aircraft flight simulation system are formed by polygon faces and include certain objects formed by repetitive patterns of equally spaced identical polygon faces. More specifically, objects such as runway markings, which are a series of elongated narrow rectangles equally spaced along the length of the runway. The image data is arranged in a particular format including instruction words for identifying the type of data in the data words following each instruction word, and for controlling the flow of data through the image processor. The image data formatted and processed includes: Initialization vectors (Vo), defining the position of landmark points (i. e. , the first vertex of the initial polygon of each series of faces). Delta data (shape data), defining the position of other points, (i. e.

An apparatus for applying latex areas to the seal flaps of paper envelopes and drying the latex is adapted to be placed either "in-line" or "off-line" with respect to a die-cut high speed envelope manufacturing machine. The apparatus includes a rotatable electrically insulated drum which acts as the ground for a radio frequency dryer (dielectric dryer) whose positive electrodes are adjustably spaced from the drum surface. The envelopes, during application of the latex and its drying, are held between flexible belts having projecting guides and are conveyed, still between the belts, by the rotating drum beneath the electrodes, with the latex exposed to the radio frequency drying.

The visual system within an aircraft flight simulation system receives flight data from a flight simulation computer, and terrain data from a gaming area data base. A computer within the visual system organizes this image data in a buffer memory according to a particular format, and forwards the image data to an image processor. The following types of data are formatted and processed: Position vectors, defining the changing position of the aircraft with respect to the origin of the terrain coordinate system. Rotational data, defining the changing attitude of the aircraft with respect to the terrain coordinate system. Initialization vectors, defining the position of the landmark points within the terrain coordinate system. The landmark points are translated into the aircraft coordinate system to form translated vectors. Delta data, defining the position of other points, lines, and faces with respect to the landmark points.

Gum applying apparatus including a pair of gum applying dies mounted on a common shaft for applying gum along and adjacent to the side edges of an envelope blank during the manufacture of the blank into an envelope. Each of the dies includes a central circular plate and a pair of circular sectors spaced from each other about the circumference of the circular plate. The sectors are in contact with a gummer roll which transfers gum from a container to the sectors. The gum is applied by the sectors to spaced envelope blanks on a conveyor belt beneath the sectors. The space between the sectors is adjacent the conveyor when the space between the blanks on the conveyor traverses the gum applying station thereby precluding gum from being applied to the belt running through the station; but enabling the gum to be applied continually to the envelope blanks. Means are also disclosed to control the amount of gum transferred to the gum applying die sectors.

An envelope is provided with a first and second button having a depending portion inserted through an opening in a flap and an adjacent body portion, respectively, which is then flattened by the application of ultrasonic energy to vibrate each button and its depending portion against an anvil, rendering each button captive on the envelope. A string is inserted through a slot or hole in the depending portion of one of the buttons and fused to the button as the depending portion is flattened. The string is used to releasably connect the buttons and thus, the envelope flap to the adjacent body portion.
