A quartz heater tube consists of a tube body whose two ends being respectively sealed with a plug, and each plug is provided with a built-in electrode. The inner cavity of the tube body is filled with an inertia gas after being evacuated, and the inner surface thereof is coated with a layer of electrical film which being electrically in connection with the two electrodes. By this construction, when the quartz heater tube is in operation, the electrical film is able to avoid oxidation owing to pr...

A small longitudinal quartz crystal resonator has an intermediate oscillating frequency from 500 KHz to 4.2 MHz, a reduced energy loss of vibration, a small equivalent series resistance and zero temperature coefficient. The resonator has a longitudinal vibrational portion of rod-like shape connected at its central portion to a pair of supporting portions through each bridge portion. Each supporting portion is shaped to avoid suppression of oscillation of the vibrational portion. The vibrational ...

In order to achieve reproducible vibration excitation of a quartz crystal even under the technical conditions which prevail when it is used for monitoring electroplating baths, a mounting for the quartz crystal 7 is proposed. The mounting for the quartz crystal 7 has two holding elements 3, 6, 14 detachably connected to one another as a form-fit, and at least two contact elements 5, 9 on the holding elements 3, 6, 14 brought into electrical contact with the contacting surfaces 32 of the quartz c...

A longitudinal quartz crystal resonator which creates an extremely small amount of vibrational leakage. Quartz is a highly stable material physically and chemically. A so-called quartz crystal resonator formed of quartz therefore has a low series resistance and a high Q-value. Such excellent characteristics are, however, obtained on the condition that the quartz crystal resonator is designed so as to produce a less leakage of vibration. Energy of a vibrational portion is trapped within itself by...

A mounting (1) for quartz-oscillator discs (2) is described, which mounting exhibits a base plate, two current feed-through pins (4a, b), which are fastened in an insulated manner in the base plate, and a central contact pin (15). Within the base plate (20) there is provided a receiving groove (25) for the quartz-oscillator disc (2), which is fastened to the mounting only at the two fastening points (31 and 32). The receiving sections (7a, 7b) of the lugs (6a, 6b) respectively exhibit a slot (8a...

A module for a watch which indicates time based on clock signals generated by a quartz oscillator. The module includes two batteries disposed across a wheel-train. A circuit block has an arm extending to a motor coil through a space between the wheel-train bridge, supporting the wheel-train and one of the batteries. Driving signals are supplied to the coil from the circuit pattern on the arm of the circuit block.

A longitudinal quartz crystal resonator has at least two vibrating arms arranged in parallel to each other to undergo a longitudinal vibration. The vibrating arms are connected together at both ends thereof by connecting sections. A pair of bridge sections extend from central parts of respective ones of the outermost vibrating arms and are connected to flexional sections. The bridge sections are supported through surrounding frame sections by a bottom mount section. The flexional sections are co...

A process for growing single crystals from an amorphous substance that can undergo phase transformation to the crystalline state in an appropriate solvent. The process is carried out in an autoclave having a lower dissolution zone and an upper crystallization zone between which a temperature differential (.DELTA.T) is maintained at all times. The apparatus loaded with the substance, solvent, and seed crystals is heated slowly maintaining a very low .DELTA.T between the warmer lower zone and cool...

A quartz tube carousel device for vertically storing quartz tubes used in semiconductor fabrication. The carousel stores the quartz tubes in an upright position to conserve floor space and, further, provides for 360 degree rotation for ease of access. Laminar air flow is provided through openings in the device for purging the tubes. Optional features allow for different size, shape and number of tubes to be stored, as well as forced gas purging of the quartz tubes.
