  • Patent number: 9818632
    Abstract: A tray for semiconductor devices includes a base with a positioning unit. The positioning unit includes a plurality of tiered projections which jointly define and surround an enclosed space for receiving a semiconductor device. Each tiered projection is a two-tier structure including an inclined surface portion and an upright surface portion connected to the inclined surface portion, and a semiconductor device can be received, and limited in position, between the upright surface portions. When the tray bounces due external vibrations such that the semiconductor device received in the enclosed space is moved away from the upright surface portions to the inclined surface portions, the inclined surface portions of the tiered projections can guide and adjust the semiconductor device, returning the semiconductor device to between the upright surface portions, in order for the tray to carry the semiconductor device stably.

  • Patent number: 9511891
    Abstract: An elastic positioning structure for a semiconductor carrier is provided with a plurality of stop blocks formed on and extending along the walls of the semiconductor carrier, the fixed end and the elastic free end of the respective stop blocks are located at the same level, so that the fixed end can still serve as a restricting structure to restrict the semiconductor, even when the free end of the stop blocks lose elasticity. The positioning structure has a narrow top and wide bottom, and the recess of the semiconductor carrier is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, so that the semiconductor can be easily taken out and put into the recess, and can be well restricted in recess without disengaging therefrom.

  • Patent number: 9105674
    Abstract: A stepped elastic positioning structure for a semiconductor carrier includes a plurality of transversely and longitudinally arranged walls and a plurality of recesses defined by the walls. On the walls of the semiconductor carrier is formed a plurality of L-shaped stop blocks, each of the stop blocks has an elastically deformable free end which is capable of elastically restricting the semiconductor in the recess, and improving the easiness for putting in or taking out the semiconductor. The end of each of the stop blocks is a stepped structure, plus the elastic deformability of the stop blocks, which makes the recess capable of holding different sized semiconductors.

  • Patent number: 8345417
    Abstract: An extension positioning structure for a portable memory device comprises a main body in a shell. A first end of the main body is disposed a drive element, and a spring is mounted outside a second end of the main body. A positioning element is pivotally disposed between the shell and the drive element. The positioning element includes a pivot shaft and an engaging portion. The engaging portion is helically formed with multiple cutting surfaces, and the positioning block is formed with a positioning block and a limiting block. By pushing the drive element, the cutting surface of the engaging portion of the positioning element cooperates with the positioning block and the limiting block to make the connecting terminal extend out of and retract into the shell, facilitating the operation and storage of the memory device while reducing both the production cost and increasing the yield rate.
