Air cooled faraday shield and methods for using the same
A chamber is provided. The chamber includes a Faraday shield positioned above a substrate support of the chamber. A dielectric window is disposed over the Faraday shield, and the dielectric window has a center opening. A hub having an internal plenum for passing a flow of fluid received from an input conduit and removing the flow of fluid from an output conduit is further provided. The hub has sidewalls and a center cavity inside of the sidewalls for an optical probe, and the internal plenum is disposed in the sidewalls. The hub has an interface surface that is in physical contact with a back side of the Faraday shield. The physical contact provides for a thermal couple to the Faraday shield at a center region around said center opening, and an outer surface of the sidewalls of the hub are disposed within the center opening of the dielectric window.

Ventilation fan with synchronous butterfly shutter for animal building
A fan assembly for use in a sidewall of an animal house. The fan assembly includes an impeller, a motive force configured to rotate the impeller about a fan assembly axis, and a butterfly shutter. A shutter operation mechanism moves the butterfly doors of the shutter between the closed position and the open position in synchrony with an operating speed of the impeller. The shutter operating mechanism includes pushrods connected to the butterfly doors, and a linkage between the impeller and the second pushrods. The linkage includes at least one weight configured to rotate with the impeller about the fan assembly axis, wherein rotation of the at least one weight causes the linkage to exert a force on the pushrods to push the butterfly doors toward the open position when the impeller is rotating.

Air-conditioning system including a master and slave configuration
Internal control devices (41A to 41D) included respectively in air conditioners (10A to 10D) in an air conditioning system (1) are communicably connected one by one correspondingly to external control devices (42A to 42D). Each of the external control devices (42A to 42D) is configured to execute command generating operation of generating an operation command to a corresponding one of the air conditioners (10A to 10D). The external control devices (42A to 42D) constitute an external control system (50). In the external control system (50), one of the external control devices (42A) functions as a master control device configured to execute the command generating operation whereas remaining ones of the external control devices (42A to 42D) other than the external control device (42A) functioning as the master control device function as sub control devices configured not to execute the command generating operation.
