Stacked Panel Processing Apparatus And Methods

US Patent:
2003000, Jan 2, 2003
Filed:
Feb 25, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/082581
Inventors:
Robert Spain - Newton MA, US
Steven Glassman - Marlboro MA, US
Assignee:
TechQuip International, Inc. - Acton MA
International Classification:
C25D001/00
US Classification:
204/194000
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for processing a panel stack having one or more panels are provided. The panel stack is provided with at least one through hole. Fluid or gas may be passed through the through hole. By inhibiting the contact of the fluid or gas from the flat surfaces of the panels, processing of the through holes can be accomplished with reduced resources and more quickly. Panel stacks can include one to at least hundreds of panels. Various applications include electroless copper deposition, electroplating of copper for a printed circuit board, chemical etchback or desmear, honing of the through hole wall using a slurry of pumice as a replacement for chemical etchback or desmear, chemical microetching of a through hole wall, and through hole blasting with pressurized water or air to clean away any debris.

Apparatus For Electroplating An Article

US Patent:
2007021, Sep 20, 2007
Filed:
May 18, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/804566
Inventors:
Steven Glassman - Marlborough MA, US
International Classification:
C25D 17/00, C25D 5/00
US Classification:
204194000, 205102000
Abstract:
An apparatus for electroplating an article, such as a printed circuit board, includes a tank filled with electrolytic solution, a clamp for retaining the article fixed in place within the solution and a movable roller assembly disposed within the solution. The roller assembly includes a pair of vertically disposed, parallel rollers that are rotatably coupled to a rigid frame, with one roller preferably being spring biased towards the other roller. In use, the application of electrical current causes metal ions present in the solution to plate out on the article. To promote greater plating within through-holes or other similar surface depressions in the article, the roller assembly is linearly displaced by a motor-driven linkage so that the pair of rollers squeegee opposing surfaces of the article.

High Efficiency Plating Apparatus And Method

US Patent:
7204918, Apr 17, 2007
Filed:
Mar 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/385999
Inventors:
Steven P. Glassman - Marlboro MA, US
Assignee:
Modular Components National, Inc. - Forest Hill MD
International Classification:
C25D 17/22, C25D 17/08, C25D 17/16, C25B 9/02, C25D 17/04
US Classification:
204242, 204224 M, 204253, 204257, 204267, 204269, 2042751, 204279, 204287, 205125, 205157, 205640, 205123
Abstract:
An improved apparatus for treating plate-like workpieces with a designated chemical solution, including printed circuit boards, includes: (1) a tray for holding the chemical solution, with the tray having an open top which is configured to receive a horizontally-oriented workpiece, with the tray having a top edge with a portion of the edge forming a dam over which the solution may flow and an opening in its lower portion where the solution can enter the tray, (2) a reservoir tank situated below the tray, (3) a feed line connecting the reservoir tank and tray opening, (4) a drain that returns the solution that overflows the tray top edge to the reservoir tank, and (5) a pump that circulates the solution from the tank to the tray and over the horizontally situated workpiece.

High Efficiency Horizontal Battery

US Patent:
2005018, Aug 18, 2005
Filed:
Feb 18, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/781450
Inventors:
Steven Glassman - Marlboro MA, US
International Classification:
H01M002/18, H01M002/16, H01M002/38, H01M010/48
US Classification:
429136000, 429254000, 429139000, 429081000, 429090000
Abstract:
A flooded cell type lead-acid battery includes a separator-filter material that is enveloped around a porous electrode, housed in a frame and placed in a cell compartment horizontally from it's opposite electrode. Flow is moved up through a porous electrode assembly using a miniature corrosion resistant pump. The separator filter material allows electrolyte to pass uniformly between electrodes and return from top overflow in a closed loop continuous flow. The resulting economically efficient battery assembly exhibits increased efficiency and cycle life by reducing the layer of hydrogen gas and sulfates coating the electrode reaction, and short-circuiting between vertical cell group.
