  • Patent number: 5876765
    Abstract: A device for encapsulating a plurality of semiconductor die comprises a form having first and second halves such that as the first half contacts the second half the first and second halves have a plurality of cavities therein. The first and second halves each comprise a conduit therein for receiving a heated liquid. The device further comprises a runner block having a hole therein, a separate runner for each cavity, and a conduit therein for receiving a heated liquid. The runners have a rectangular cross section and a width to height ratio of at least 3:1. The device further comprises a mounting plate for mating with the runner block. The mounting plate comprises a concave recess and a hole in the mounting plate at the recess. The hole in the mounting plate passes through the mounting plate to align with the hole in the runner block such that an encapsulation material can be passed between the mounting plate and the runner block.

  • Patent number: 5428982
    Abstract: The machine tool has a frame (10) and in it, a cam gear with two pairs of cam tracks with complementary curve shapes. The tool actuation takes place by means of two levers (3a, 3b) which are hinged to the side on a clamping plate (8). Each of these levers has two rollers (4a, 6a; 4b, 6b) on one of its arms and these are coupled positively to one cam track pair each.

Each of these levers has two rollers (4a, 6a; 4b, 6b) on one of its arms and these are coupled positively to one cam track pair each. The position of different cam tracks is matched in a certain way with the objective of reducing the frequency of disturbing vibrations.

  • Patent number: 4866976
    Abstract: An apparatus for removing tie bars from between the leads of a semiconductor device during the manufacture of said device comprises a punch guide having a plurality of guide slots and a die block aligned with and spaced from the punch guide so as to provide a space therebetween. The die block is provided with a plurality of die slots which are in axial alignment with the plurality of guide slots in the punch guide. A plurality of punches are axially aligned with the guide slots and the die slots. A transmission mechanism is provided for selectively moving the die block toward the punch guide and the plurality of punches toward the die block such that the punches pierce the space between the die block and punch guide for removing the tie bars from between the leads.
