Abstract: A protection device for a substrate container includes a container door and a limiter for pushing against and securing a substrate, a support member and an elastic connecting component for engaging and securing the container body, and an antistatic member having elasticity interference to provide an electrostatic dissipation path as electrostatic protection for the substrate. The protection device for a substrate container improves a protection effect of a substrate stored in the substrate container, and prevents hazards to a substrate caused by vibration, dust, and static electricity.

Abstract: A supporting device and a protective case for a probe card are provided. The protective case includes the supporting device, a case body, an upper cover, and plural switching members. The supporting device has plural quick-release members and plural bevel grooves. The case body has plural arrangement grooves each configured to mate with the corresponding quick-release member to fasten the supporting device to the case body. The probe card is connected with a protecting cover that includes plural fastening members fastened to the probe card. When the protecting cover and the probe card connected therewith are placed on the supporting device, the bevel grooves actuate the fastening members and thereby unfasten the fastening members from the probe card. The switching members are provided on the case body and are each lockable to a corresponding engaging member on the upper cover to lock the upper cover the case body together.

Abstract: A reticle pod includes a body, cover, sliding-rail member, sliding-fastening member and shut-corresponding element. The sliding-rail member has a dent portion and a slot portion and defines a locked direction. The dent portion extends from the slot portion in the locked direction. The sliding-fastening member is slidably disposed at the sliding-rail member. The sliding-fastening member has a fastening portion and resilient arms. The resilient arms are inserted into a slot of the slot portion. The fastening portion has a fastening groove corresponding in height to the slot portion. An oblique-guide surface is disposed above the fastening groove. When the cover switches from an open state to a closed state, the shut-corresponding element pushes the sliding-fastening member across the oblique-guide surface and thus compresses the sliding-fastening member, allowing the shut-corresponding element to enter the fastening groove.

Abstract: A docking station for a mobile electronic device is provided. It utilizes a transmission unit and a release unit to control the positioning of a connection unit. The transmission unit includes a horizontal displacement member abutted against a floating cover for horizontal displacement upon a downward movement of the floating cover, and a pivot member mounted at the connection unit and connected to the horizontal displacement member, so that the connection unit can connect the mobile electronic device upon a downward movement of the floating cover. The release unit includes a swing arm connected with the pivot member and a button abutted against the swing arm. When the button is pressed, the swing arm is pushed to drive the connection unit to disengage from the mobile electronic device via the pivot member. Thus, the mobile electronic device can be removed.

Abstract: A supporting structure and a docking station using the same are provided. The supporting structure includes an elastic member, a sliding member, a lifting element and a damper. The sliding member having an inclined plane is connected to the elastic member. When the elastic member receives a force, the elastic member forces the sliding member to move along an axis line with the inclined plane facing to the lifting element. The lifting element is arranged over a travel path of the inclined plane and has an abutting portion. When the lifting element receives another force so that the abutting portion abuts against the inclined plane, the sliding member stops moving and the height position of the lifting element is fixed. The damper is mated with the sliding member to slow down the velocity of the sliding member.

Abstract: A positioning device includes two guiding members fixed spacedly in a housing. Each guiding member has a hook-shaped guiding slot having an elongate first slot portion, and a curved second slot portion defined by front and rear stop walls. A pivot member is connected pivotally to a detachable module. Two positioning rods of the pivot member are respectively guided by the first slot portions of the guiding slots in the guiding members to move rearwardly as a result of rearward movement of the detachable module until the positioning rods abut respectively against the rear stop walls. The pivot member is then pivoted to move the positioning rods to abut respectively against the front stop walls, thereby resulting in further rearward movement of the detachable module by a predetermined distance in response to continuous pivoting of the pivot member.
