Abstract: A die suction assistance device is provided to a wafer. The wafer is diced into multiple dies, and a tape is taped on a bottom side of the wafer. The die suction assistance device includes a platform and multiple support structures mounted in the platform. Multiple air ducts are formed among adjacent support structures. When the wafer is air-tightly mounted on the platform, the wafer is supported by the support structures. When an external vacuum device vacuums air out of the platform, a vacuum environment with negative pressure is created in the air ducts. This allows the tape to partially separate from a backside of each of the dies towards the air ducts, and allows the dies to be picked up respectively by a suction nozzle with less chance of being damaged, securing integrities of dies.

Abstract: In a combustion-type power tool, when a safety unit is pressed against a workpiece to cause a valve sleeve to close a combustion chamber, a power region of a lever is actuated to permit a weight region of the lever to displace a holding member holding a fuel canister from a normal position to a pressed position. When the holding member is in the pressed position, a valve stem of the fuel canister is forced into pressing engagement with an intake port of a fuel canister actuation unit to permit delivery of a measured dose of fuel to the combustion chamber through the intake port.

Abstract: A nailing gun includes a swing arm having a first end pivoted to a frame, and a second end movable between a first position proximate to a flywheel to drive a hammer rod to hit a nail, and a second position distal from the flywheel. A spring plate has a spring end portion resiliently supporting the second end of the swing arm. The stop member limits the spring end portion and the second end of the swing arm from moving relative to the frame. When a safety member is subjected to an external pressure, the stop member permits the second end of the swing arm to move together with the spring end portion to the first position. The spring end portion can stably retain the second end of the swing arm at the second position in case of no external pressure.
