  • Patent number: 12261069
    Abstract: A multiple die container load port may include a housing with an opening, and an elevator to accommodate a plurality of different sized die containers. The multiple die container load port may include a stage supported by the housing and moveable within the opening of the housing by the elevator. The stage may include one or more positioning mechanisms to facilitate positioning of the plurality of different sized die containers on the stage, and may include different portions movable by the elevator to accommodate the plurality of different sized die containers. The multiple die container load port may include a position sensor to identify one of the plurality of different sized die containers positioned on the stage.

  • Patent number: 12237196
    Abstract: A multiple transport carrier docking device may be capable of storing and/or staging a plurality of transport carriers in a chamber of the multiple transport carrier docking device, and may be capable of forming an air-tight seal around a transport carrier in the chamber. Semiconductor wafers in the transport carrier may be accessed by a wafer transport tool while the air-tight seal around the transport carrier prevents and/or reduces the likelihood that contaminants in the semiconductor fabrication facility will reach the semiconductor wafers. The air-tight seal around the transport carrier may reduce defects of the semiconductor wafers that might otherwise be caused by the contaminants, may increase manufacturing yield and quality in the semiconductor fabrication facility, and/or may permit the continued reduction in device and/or feature sizes of integrated circuits and/or semiconductor devices that are to be formed on semiconductor wafers.

  • Patent number: 12217991
    Abstract: A portable robotic semiconductor pod loader may detect, with at least one sensor, receipt of a semiconductor pod on a load port of the portable robotic semiconductor pod loader. The at least one sensor is supported by the load port. The portable robotic semiconductor pod loader may cause a robot, of the portable robotic semiconductor pod loader, to align with the semiconductor pod provided on the load port. The portable robotic semiconductor pod loader may cause the robot to attach to the semiconductor pod, and may cause the robot to provide the semiconductor pod from the load port to a staging area of a semiconductor processing tool.

  • Patent number: 11778372
    Abstract: A voice reception device includes a casing and at least two voice reception units. The casing includes a peripheral side wall, a bottom wall, a containing space formed in an inside of the peripheral side wall and the bottom wall, and a first opening end located at an end of the containing space. The voice reception units are disposed in the containing space. Each of the voice reception units includes a main body, a diaphragm, and a voice guiding channel. The main body has a chamber, and an end of the chamber has a second opening end. The diaphragm is connected to the second opening end of the main body. The voice guiding channel includes an importing end acoustically connected to the chamber and an exporting end opposite to the importing end and acoustically connected to a microphone.
