[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] In this application, terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer" indicate positions or locations based on those shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are intended to better describe this application and its embodiments and are not intended to limit the devices, elements, or components indicated to specific positions, or to their construction or operation in a specific position.

[0032] Furthermore, some of the above terms may be used to express other meanings besides indicating a position or location. For example, the term "on" may also be used to indicate a dependency or connection in certain circumstances. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] Furthermore, the terms "installed," "disposed," "equipped with," and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, removable connections, or integral structures; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediary, or internal communication between two devices, elements, or components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0034] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are primarily used to distinguish between different devices, elements, or components (which may or may not be of the same type and configuration), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance or quantity of the devices, elements, or components indicated. Unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0035] In the related art, semiconductor products are produced and manufactured using carrier tapes and transported via tracks. When semiconductor products of different specifications are transported, carrier tapes of different specifications are required. Therefore, the distance between the two tracks of the transport carrier tape needs to be adjusted to suit the width of the carrier tape. Manual adjustment is usually adopted during the adjustment process. Specifically, during the track adjustment process, technicians are usually required to manually adjust the distance between the tracks according to the width of the carrier tape. During this adjustment process, technicians need to observe the fit between the carrier tape and the track with their naked eyes, which makes the adjustment difficult, and the manual visual method has low adjustment accuracy. Moreover, since manual adjustment is required, technicians need to observe and adjust while adjusting during the adjustment process, which requires high observation skills and operating skills, resulting in high difficulty in adjustment. In addition, during the production process, carrier tapes of different specifications need to be replaced for transportation, and the replacement is frequent. Each adjustment of the distance between the two tracks takes a lot of time, which seriously affects the efficiency of semiconductor product production.

[0036] Based on this, the present application discloses a transport device for transporting carrier tapes, by installing a width calibration device between two tracks. When the technicians remove the two tracks from the mounting base, they engage the two tracks on the width calibration device, because the width calibration device is pre-set with a width that matches the carrier tape. Therefore, when the two tracks are engaged on the width calibration device, the track spacing between the two tracks is configured to be the width of the carrier tape pre-set by the width calibration device. In this way, the errors caused by technicians adjusting by manual visual inspection are avoided, and the accuracy of track spacing adjustment is improved. Moreover, adjusting the track spacing by the width calibration device is simple to operate, has low technical requirements, and is simple and quick to adjust, which is conducive to frequent and rapid adjustments during production, thereby helping to improve the efficiency of semiconductor product production.

[0037] Specifically, see Figure 1 The present application discloses a transport device 100 for transporting carrier tapes, comprising a mounting base (not shown), two rails 1 and a width calibration device 2, wherein the two rails 1 and the width calibration device 2 are mounted on the mounting base. When the two rails 1 are mounted on the mounting base, a rail spacing 1a is formed between the two rails. The rail spacing 1a is configured to transport the carrier tape along the length direction of the rails 1, and the rails 1 are detachable from the mounting base so that the rail spacing 1a is adjustable. The width calibration device 2 is at least partially located within the rail spacing 1a. Specifically, the width of the portion of the width calibration device 2 located within the rail spacing 1a is preset to the width of the carrier tape. Therefore, the width calibration device 2 can be used to calibrate the width of the rail spacing 1a so that the width of the rail spacing 1a matches the width of the carrier tape.

[0038] It can be understood that the above-mentioned track spacing 1a is formed by the spacing between the two tracks 1 along the width direction of the track 1 when the two tracks 1 are installed on the mounting base. Therefore, if you want to adjust the track spacing 1a between the two tracks 1, you need to adjust the installation position of at least one of the tracks on the mounting base.

[0039] In the actual process of adjusting the track spacing 1a of the two tracks 1, since the tracks 1 are detachably mounted relative to the mounting base, the two tracks 1 can usually be removed from the mounting base, which facilitates the adjustment of the track spacing 1a. When the two tracks 1 are removed from the mounting base, the width of the track spacing 1a can be adjusted arbitrarily, but this adjustment is only a rough adjustment, which cannot make the two tracks 1 more accurately match the carrier tape, and thus the carrier tape cannot be smoothly transported within the track spacing 1a. Based on this, in the present application, the two tracks 1 are engaged with the portion of the width calibration device 2 located in the track spacing 1a, and the track spacing 1a is limited by the width calibration device 2, so that the width of the track spacing 1a is calibrated more accurately, so that the track spacing 1a can accurately match the width of the carrier tape.

[0040] In addition, during the calibration process, technicians do not need to adjust the track spacing 1a by visual inspection. The adjustment process is convenient and quick, and the adjustment error is reduced. While achieving precise adjustment of the track spacing 1a of track 1, it is also convenient to switch between different track spacings 1a of two tracks 1 to match the width of the carrier, which is beneficial to improving the efficiency of rotating carrier products of different specifications on the production line.

[0041] Furthermore, since the width calibration device 2 is still partially located within the track spacing 1a when the two rails 1 are installed on the mounting base, if the two rails 1 are loose, the fit between the width calibration device 2 and the rails 1 can be observed, allowing technicians to readjust the rails 1.

[0042] Optionally, the mounting base may be, but is not limited to, a mounting plate or a mounting table, etc., and this application does not make any specific limitations here.

[0043] Optionally, the width calibration device 2 may be a device such as a movable caliper device or a width calibration block. In one example, when the width calibration device 2 is a movable caliper device, the caliper has codes corresponding to different carrier tape widths. By extending different code portions from the caliper and then snapping the extended portions into the track spacing 1a, the track spacing 1a can be limited to different widths by the extended portion of the movable caliper, thereby matching carrier tapes of different specifications. In another example, when the width calibration device 2 is a device including a width calibration block, by placing different width calibration blocks within the track spacing 1a, the width between the two rails 1 is limited, so that the track spacing 1a matches the width of the carrier tape.

[0044] In order to facilitate understanding of the specific solutions of the present application, the width calibration device will be described below as an example in which the width calibration device includes a width calibration block.

[0045] It is understandable that the detachable installation method of the above-mentioned rail and the mounting base may include but is not limited to pin installation or screw installation, and this application does not make specific limitations here.

[0046] It can be understood that since the track spacing 1a is configured to transport the carrier tape along the length direction of the track 1, when the carrier tape is transported, the carrier tape is placed inside the track spacing, that is, the width of the track spacing 1a is roughly adapted to the width of the carrier tape to clamp the carrier tape and prevent it from falling out of the track spacing 1a. At the same time, the track spacing 1a can also be used to ensure that the carrier tape can always be transported along the transportation direction, preventing the carrier tape from being deformed or displaced during transportation.

[0047] In some embodiments, the transport equipment 100 disclosed in the present application further includes a mounting member 3, wherein the rail 1 is mounted above the mounting member 3 along its thickness direction, and the width calibration device 2 is mounted on the mounting member 3 along the length direction of the rail 1. Finally, the rail 1 and the width calibration device 2 can be integrally mounted on the mounting base through the mounting member 3. The present application first integrally mounts the width calibration device 2 and the rail 1 through the mounting member 3, and then uniformly mounts them on the mounting base. In this way, when the rail 1 and the width calibration device are mounted on the mounting member, the mounting position and assembly relationship between the rail 1 and the width calibration device 2 can be adjusted first, thereby avoiding the situation in which the subsequent transport equipment is incorrectly installed when assembled with other devices as a whole, resulting in repeated disassembly and assembly between the devices, affecting production efficiency. In addition, since the mounting member 3 can install the rail 1 and the mounting base at a distance, the mounting member 3 can raise the rail 1, thereby avoiding the situation in which the carrier tape contacts the mounting base during transportation, which may cause damage to the semiconductor products transported on the carrier tape.

[0048] Optionally, the mounting member 3 may be a mounting block with a certain thickness or a hollow mounting frame, as long as the track 1 can be raised. This application does not specifically limit the structure of the mounting member.

[0049] Considering that other structures or devices may need to be installed above the track 1, in some embodiments, the width calibration device 2 is positioned below the track 1 along the thickness direction of the track 1. It is understood that placing the width calibration device 2 below the track 1 allows for the avoidance of other structures or devices located above the track 1, such as test equipment or sensors used to detect chips on the carrier tape. Furthermore, during transportation, the carrier tape is typically transported within the track spacing 1a. Positioning the width calibration device 2 below the track 1 also effectively avoids interference with the transport of the carrier tape.

[0050] Since the track 1 is typically of a certain length, calibrating the track spacing 1a with only one width calibration device 2 may not ensure a consistent width across the entire track spacing 1a. Therefore, the transport equipment 100 of the present application optionally includes multiple width calibration devices 2 spaced apart along the length of the track 1. This allows each width calibration device 2 to uniformly adjust the track spacing 1a, preventing uneven track spacing 1a from affecting carrier transport.

[0051] Please also see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the width calibration device 2 includes a calibration body 21 and a fixing structure 22. The fixing structure 22 is mounted on a mounting base, and the calibration body 21 is mounted on the fixing structure 22. A calibration portion 211 is provided at one end of the calibration body 21. The calibration portion 211 can be a width calibration block. At least a portion of the calibration portion 211 is positioned within the track spacing 1a. The calibration portion 211 can be used to calibrate the track spacing 1a to the width of the carrier tape. In a practical configuration, the calibration body 21 is mounted on the mounting base via the fixing structure 22, ensuring a secure fit relative to the track 1. This allows the calibration portion 211 to be positioned within the track spacing 1a, facilitating the desired track spacing 1a. Furthermore, when the track 1 is removed from the mounting base to adjust the track spacing 1a, even if the track 1 cannot retain the calibration portion 211, the fixing structure 22 ensures that the calibration portion 211 is at least partially positioned within the track spacing 1a. This facilitates direct determination of the track spacing 1a via the calibration portion 211 when the track 1 is subsequently reinstalled on the mounting base.

[0052] Considering that the track spacing 1a needs to be adjusted to accommodate carrier tapes of different specifications, in some embodiments, a plurality of calibration sections 211 may be provided, and the widths of the various calibration sections 211 are different. Specifically, the width of each calibration section 211 can be pre-set to be consistent with the width of carrier tapes of various specifications, and the different calibration sections 211 are inserted into the track spacing 1a, thereby fine-tuning the track spacing 1a to the width of carrier tapes of different specifications. Compared to the method of adjusting the track spacing 1a by replacing the width calibration block individually each time, the track spacing 1a can be adjusted to different widths by arbitrarily using multiple calibration sections 211 arranged together. The adjustment method is more convenient and quick, and there is no need to repeatedly pick up and place, resulting in higher adjustment efficiency.

[0053] Please combine Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the width of the multiple calibration parts 211 gradually increases along the thickness direction of the track 1. For example, the calibration part 211 can be set at the top of the calibration body 21, and along the height direction of the calibration body 21, each calibration part 211 is arranged one by one along the thickness direction of the track 1 according to the width and connected to the calibration body 21. The calibration parts 211 are connected to each other in a stepped shape. When it is necessary to replace a different calibration part 211 to calibrate the track spacing 1a, it is necessary to move the calibration body 21 along the thickness direction of the track 1 so that the required calibration part 211 is set within the track spacing 1a to calibrate the track spacing 1a. By arranging the multiple calibration parts 211 from small to large, it is convenient for technicians to adjust the width as needed, so as to select the calibration part 211 that calibrates the track spacing 1a, which is conducive to improving the convenience of operation.

[0054] For example, Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 It is shown in the figure that there are three calibration parts 211, and the widths of the three calibration parts 211 decrease successively along the height direction of the calibration body 21. That is to say, along the height direction of the calibration body 21, the width of the calibration part 211 directly connected to the calibration body 21 is the largest, while the width of the calibration part 211 at the top is the smallest, and the width of the calibration part 211 in the middle is the second largest. In this way, when technicians use the calibration parts 211 to calibrate the track spacing 1a, they can quickly locate the calibration part 211 with a width that matches the actual track width for calibration. Of course, it can be understood that in other examples, the number of the calibration parts 211 can also be two, four or more. In addition, the width setting of the calibration part 211 can also increase successively along the height direction of the calibration body 21, and can be set according to actual conditions. This embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0055] Among them, Figure 1 In the figure, X is the length direction of the track 1, and Y is the thickness direction of the track 1. The above directions are only examples for facilitating understanding of the solution and do not limit the scope of this embodiment.

[0056] To further enhance the ease of operation of the width calibration device 2, in some embodiments, the calibration body 21 is slidably connected to the track spacing 1a along the thickness of the track 1, such that the calibration portion 211 of the corresponding width is at least partially located within the track spacing 1a. It will be appreciated that adjusting the track spacing 1a requires removing the track 1 from its mounting base, thereby leaving space within the track spacing 1a for the calibration body 21 to move. When a different calibration portion 211 needs to be placed within the track spacing 1a, the desired calibration portion 211 can be slid into place within the track spacing 1a. Since the widths of the calibration portions 211 gradually vary, the sliding direction of the calibration body 21 aligns with the direction of the width variation between the calibration portions 211. Therefore, switching between different calibration portions 211 can be accomplished simply by sliding the calibration body 21 along the thickness of the track 1. This is simple, quick, and easy to operate, effectively improving the efficiency of adjusting the track spacing 1a.

[0057] Please combine Figure 4 As shown, in order to allow the calibration body 21 to slide better within the track spacing 1a, in some embodiments, the width calibration device 2 also includes an adjustment handle 23, and the adjustment handle 23 is connected to the end of the calibration body 21 away from the calibration portion 211, specifically connected to the calibration body 21 along the thickness direction of the track 1. The adjustment handle 23 is used to adjust the sliding of the calibration body 21 relative to the track spacing 1a. In an actual setting, when the two tracks 1 are removed from the mounting base, the technician can hold the adjustment handle 23 and push the adjustment handle 23 to allow each calibration portion 211 to slide within the track spacing 1a. In this way, the technician can adjust the track spacing 1a more easily.

[0058] Alternatively, the fixing structure 22 may be a clamping plate 22a, a bolt, or other structure. For example, a bolt can be drilled into the calibration body 21, screwed into the calibration body 21, and tightened into a threaded hole on the mounting base, thereby securing the calibration body 21 to the mounting base. To minimize the sliding effect of the calibration body 21, the following description will further illustrate the specific technical solution of this application using the clamping plate 22a as an example of the fixing structure 22.

[0059] Please also see Figures 2 to 4Specifically, the fixed structure 22 includes two clamping plates 22a and a limiting assembly 22b. The two clamping plates 22a are spaced apart along the length direction of the track 1 so that a sliding space for the calibration body 21 to slide is formed between the two clamping plates 22a. The calibration body 21 is at least partially slidable in the sliding space along the length direction of the track 1. The limiting assembly 22b is connected to one of the clamping plates 22a and is located in the sliding space. The limiting assembly 22b is configured to limit the sliding position of the calibration body 21 in the sliding space. When considering the installation of the calibration body 21 by the fixed structure 22, the present application also considers the sliding of the calibration body 21 within the fixed structure 22, so that the calibration body 21 can slide relative to the track spacing 1a.

[0060] First, the two clamps are arranged at intervals to form a sliding space between the two clamps 22a. The formed sliding space has a certain guiding effect on the calibration body 21, so that the calibration body 21 can slide along the thickness direction of the track 1, avoiding the calibration body 21 from sliding out of the track spacing 1a during the sliding process.

[0061] Secondly, the calibration body 21 slides in the sliding space to determine the specific calibration part 211 to adjust the track spacing 1a. When the track spacing 1a is determined, the track 1 needs to be reinstalled on the installation base. In order to avoid the calibration body 21 from slipping out of the sliding space during the installation of the track 1, the present application fixes the calibration body 21 in the sliding space through the limit component 22b, thereby preventing the calibration body 21 from slipping. At the same time, the limit component 22b can also limit the position of the calibration part 211 within the track spacing 1a, so as to facilitate the selection of one of the multiple calibration parts 211 to calibrate the track spacing 1a.

[0062] Optionally, the limiting assembly 22b includes a connecting portion 222 and a limiting portion 223. One of the two clamping plates 22a defines a slide slot 221. The connecting portion 222 has a first end 222a and a second end 222b. The first end 222a is connected to the limiting portion 223, while the second end 222b passes through the slide slot 221 and connects to the connection hole 212 on the calibration body 21. The calibration body 21 has a sliding state and a limiting state. In the limiting state, the second end 222b is securely connected to the connection hole 212, and the limiting portion 223 and the calibration body 21 abut against the outer periphery of the slide slot 221. That is, because the connection portion 222 is securely connected to the connection hole 212, the distance between the limiting portion 223 and the calibration body 21 is reduced, thereby locking the limiting portion 223 and the calibration body 21 to the clamping plate 22a, and preventing the limiting portion 223 and the calibration body 21 from moving relative to the clamping plate 22a. In the sliding state, the second end 222b is at least partially connected to the connection hole 212 or completely separated from the connection hole 212, thereby increasing the distance between the limiting portion 223 and the calibration body 21, and allowing the two to move relative to the clamping plate 22a.

[0063] It can be understood that the above-mentioned sliding state means that the calibration body 21 slides in the sliding space, and the above-mentioned limiting state means that the calibration body 21 is tightly connected to the limiting component 22b, so that the calibration body 21 abuts against the clamping plate 22a, so that the calibration body 21 cannot slide relative to the clamping plate 22a.

[0064] The connection between the second end 222b and the connection hole 212 in the sliding state will be described below in different situations:

[0065] In one example, when the second end 222b is at least partially connected to the connecting hole 212, the limit assembly 22b and the calibration body 21 remain connected, and the connecting portion 222 can be located in the slide groove 221. When the calibration body 21 slides, the connecting portion 222 can slide along the slide groove 221 following the calibration body 21. After confirming the position after sliding, it is only necessary to re-fasten the second end 222b of the connecting portion 222 to the connecting hole 212. The operation is simple and quick.

[0066] In another example, the second end 222b is completely disengaged from the connection hole 212, that is, the limiting assembly 22b is completely separated from the clamping plate 22a and the calibration body 21, thereby releasing the restriction on the calibration body 21 and allowing the calibration body 21 to slide within the sliding space. When re-limiting the sliding position of the calibration body 21, the second end 222b of the connecting portion 222 needs to be re-entered through the sliding groove 221 and fastened to the connection hole 212.

[0067] Optionally, the connecting portion 222 and the connecting hole 212 may be a bolt and a threaded hole, a pin and a socket, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0068] In some embodiments, considering that the limiting function of the limiting component 22b may fail, in order to avoid the calibration body 21 from falling from the fixed structure 22 due to the failure of the limiting function of the limiting component 22b, the fixed structure 22 also includes a baffle 22c, which is arranged below the calibration body 21 to support the calibration body 21, thereby preventing the calibration body 21 from falling from the fixed structure 22 during the sliding process or when the limiting function of the limiting component 22b fails.

[0069] The following describes in detail the process of adjusting the track spacing width using the width calibration device 2 of the present application:

[0070] First, remove the two rails 1 from the mounting member 3, and then adjust the track spacing 1a between the two rails 1 to the approximate width of the carrier tape. At the same time, remove the connection portion 222 of the limit assembly 22b from the connection hole 212 on the calibration body 21, so that the calibration body 21 slides within the sliding space between the two clamps 22a. After completing the above operations, the technician pushes the adjustment handle 23, pushing the calibration body 21 so that one of the multiple calibration portions 211 slides into the track spacing 1a. When the calibration portion 211 is within the track spacing 1a, the two rails 1 are snapped into the calibration portion 211 so that the width of the track spacing 1a matches the width of the calibration portion 211, thereby achieving the calibration of the track spacing 1a. Finally, reinstall the two rails 1 back onto the mounting member 3, and then re-tighten the connection portion 222 of the limit assembly 22b to the connection hole 212 of the calibration body, so that the calibration body 21 is fixed and prevented from sliding. In this way, the calibration of the track spacing 1a is completed.
