[0032] In order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section, the inventors have innovatively designed the following technical solutions, and the specific implementation scheme of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a blister tray 1 provided in this embodiment. The blister tray 1 includes a tray body 10, and the tray body 10 includes a tray frame 11 extending along a first direction A1 and a second direction A2, wherein the length of the tray frame 11 along the first direction A1 is greater than the length of the tray frame 11 along the second direction A2, and the first direction A1 and the second direction A2 are perpendicular to each other.
[0034] In this embodiment, the tray body 10 is composed of a tray frame 11, which extends along two mutually perpendicular directions (first direction A1 and second direction A2) to form the basic structure of the blister tray 1.
[0035] Currently in the semiconductor industry, before the heat sink is laser-marked, it is carried by blister trays of varying sizes (1). The heat sink is then transferred from blister tray 1 to a JEDEC tray, which then carries it into the laser marking machine. This solution eliminates this transfer step, allowing the heat sink to directly enter the laser marking machine from the blister tray 1. Therefore, the specifications of blister tray 1 should conform to the specifications of the JEDEC tray to ensure the standardized carrying of the heat sink. The dimensions of blister tray 1 can be 322.1 mm. ± 0.5mm*135.4mm ± 0.5mm; in this case, the length of the pallet frame 11 along the first direction A1 is 322.1mm. ± The pallet frame 11 along the second direction A2 has a thickness of 0.5mm and a length of 135.4mm. ± 0.5mm.
[0036] It is worth noting that the dimensions of blister tray 1 are not specifically limited here and should be designed according to the actual situation. The JEDEC tray is a plastic tray used for semiconductor packaging testing, mainly for loading substrates, packaging heat sinks (Lids), etc.
[0037] The pallet body 10 also includes a receiving slot 12 disposed within the area defined by the pallet frame 11, the receiving slot 12 being used to receive products to be transferred.
[0038] In this embodiment, the design of the receiving slot 12 ensures the stability and safety of the product (e.g., the heat sink) during transportation.
[0039] The blister tray 1 also includes a pick-and-place section 20, which is disposed on the tray frame 11 extending along the second direction A2 and also extends along the second direction A2.
[0040] In this embodiment, there can be two pick-and-place units 20, which are arranged on opposite sides of the tray frame 11 along the second direction A2, making it convenient for operators to pick up and place the blister trays 1. In addition, since the distances from the pick-and-place units 20 to the two tray frames 11 arranged along the first direction A1 are different, especially when multiple blister trays 1 are stacked on top of each other, the arrangement of the pick-and-place units 20 can prevent the blister trays 1 from being stacked incorrectly.
[0041] It is worth noting that the length of the pick-up and drop-off portion 20 provided on the pallet frame 11 along the second direction A2 should be less than the length of the pallet frame 11 along the second direction A2.
[0042] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 On the third direction A3, the pallet frame 11 includes a first frame portion 110, a second frame portion 111 and a third frame portion 112 stacked in sequence, wherein the third direction A3 is perpendicular to the plane defined by the first direction A1 and the second direction A2.
[0043] The first frame portion 110 extends relative to the second frame portion 111, and the second frame portion 111 extends relative to the third frame portion 112.
[0044] In this embodiment, a layered three-dimensional frame structure provides basic support for the blister tray 1. The first frame portion 110 is located at the bottom of the blister tray 1, providing basic support for the blister tray 1. The first frame portion 110 extends relative to the second frame portion 111, and the second frame portion 111 extends relative to the third frame portion 112, forming a stepped structure. This design not only increases the overall stability of the blister tray 1 but also optimizes space utilization.
[0045] The pick-and-place section 20 is connected to the first frame section 110 and the second frame section 111.
[0046] In this embodiment, when multiple blister trays 1 are stacked together, the design of the pick-and-place section 20 makes it convenient for operators to pick up and place the trays, greatly improving work efficiency and convenience.
[0047] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 The third frame portion 112 is provided with a first reinforcing rib 1120, which extends along the first direction A1. There are multiple first reinforcing ribs 1120, which are evenly distributed on the third frame portion 112.
[0048] In this embodiment, the provision of a first reinforcing rib 1120 in the third frame portion 112 can significantly improve the overall structural strength of the blister tray 1, disperse forces, and reduce the possibility of deformation. At the same time, the evenly distributed first reinforcing ribs 1120 in the third frame portion 112 enable the blister tray 1 to be subjected to forces more evenly, avoiding damage caused by excessive local pressure, and improving the durability of the blister tray 1.
[0049] It is worth noting that the material of the first reinforcing rib 1120 can be the same as that of the blister tray 1. The material of the first reinforcing rib 1120 is not specifically limited here and should be selected according to the actual situation.
[0050] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 In the pallet frame 11 extending along the first direction A1, the second frame portion 111 and the third frame portion 112 are also provided with recesses (not shown in the figure) recessed toward the receiving groove 12 in the second direction A2, and the recesses and the corresponding first frame portion 110 form a fork slot 113.
[0051] In this embodiment, the second frame portion 111 and the third frame portion 112 are recessed towards the receiving groove 12 in the second direction A2, forming a recessed portion with a certain depth. At the same time, the recessed portion and the first frame portion 110 form a fork slot 113. The design of the fork slot 113 can be used in conjunction with the fork handle at the end of the equipment, which facilitates the movement of the blister tray 1. Furthermore, the design of the fork slot 113 does not require increasing the external dimensions of the blister tray 1, thus improving space utilization.
[0052] The number of fork slots 113 is even, and the fork slots 113 are symmetrically arranged on the two pallet frames 11 extending along the first direction A1.
[0053] In this embodiment, the symmetrically arranged fork slots 113 ensure that the blister tray 1 remains balanced during movement by the fork handle at the equipment end, avoiding instability caused by center offset. When there are four fork slots 113, their distribution is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0054] It is worth noting that the number of fork slots 113 is not specifically limited here and should be designed according to the actual situation.
[0055] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 . Figure 2 for Figure 1 A magnified view of the area within the dashed box. Figure 3 for Figure 2A schematic diagram of multiple blister trays 1 stacked. When multiple blister trays 1 are stacked, the design of the fork slots 113 not only provides a convenient forklift point for the forklift at the equipment end, allowing the forklift to easily insert into the fork slots 113 during the movement or handling of the blister trays 1, thereby achieving fast and stable forklifting of the blister trays 1, but also ensures stable isolation between the blister trays 1, avoiding mutual adhesion or sliding, and improving overall operating efficiency and safety.
[0056] Further, please see Figure 1 The number of receiving slots 12 is multiple, and the multiple receiving slots 12 are arranged at equal intervals in the first direction A1 within the area defined by the tray frame 11. The receiving slots 12 include a bottom 120 and side walls 121 surrounding the bottom 120.
[0057] In this embodiment, the equally spaced receiving slots 12 maximize the use of the space in the blister tray 1, ensuring that each slot 12 can accommodate a product, thus improving the storage and transportation efficiency of the blister tray 1. Furthermore, the equally spaced receiving slots 12 ensure that when multiple blister trays 1 are stacked, the weight is evenly distributed among the receiving slots 12 on each blister tray 1, maintaining the stability of the blister tray 1. When there are four receiving slots 12, their distribution is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0058] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 The bottom 120 of the receiving groove 12 is provided with a second reinforcing rib 1201.
[0059] In this embodiment, the second reinforcing rib 1201 provided at the bottom 120 of the receiving groove 12 enhances the structural strength and stability of the receiving groove 12, protects the product placed in the receiving groove 12, and reduces possible damage during transportation.
[0060] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 The side wall 121 of the receiving groove 12 is provided with a pickup groove 1210 recessed in the second direction A2.
[0061] In this embodiment, a pickup groove 1210 is provided on the side wall 121 of the receiving groove 12 to provide convenient picking and placing operations, making it easier for operators to take out or put products from the blister tray 1.
[0062] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 The pallet body 10 also includes a support groove 13 disposed within the area defined by the pallet frame 11, the support groove 13 being located between two adjacent receiving grooves 12.
[0063] In this embodiment, the support groove 13 between two adjacent receiving grooves 12 not only ensures the support strength when the blister trays 1 are stacked, but also prevents the upper and lower blister trays 1 from adhering together when stacked. It is worth noting that the shape of the support groove 13 can be a frustum shape.
[0064] Furthermore, please see again Figure 1 In the second direction A2, the edge of the third frame portion 112 away from the receiving groove 12 has a chamfer 1121.
[0065] In this embodiment, the chamfer 1121 can be a rounded chamfer. The design of the chamfer 1121 serves a guiding function, preventing operators from making mistakes when stacking the blister trays 1 and helping the blister trays 1 to be better aligned. Secondly, the chamfer 1121 serves as a marker for the blister trays 1, making it easier for the equipment to identify the blister trays 1 during movement and transportation.
[0066] Furthermore, the tray body 10 and the pick-and-place section 20 are made of materials including plastic.
[0067] In this embodiment, the materials used to make the tray body 10 and the pick-and-place section 20 can be polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), polypropylene (PP), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc. The materials used to make the tray body 10 and the pick-and-place section 20 are not specifically limited here and should be selected according to the actual situation.
[0068] In summary, this application provides a blister tray. The blister tray includes a tray body, which includes a tray frame extending along a first direction and a second direction. The length of the tray frame along the first direction is greater than the length of the tray frame along the second direction, and the first and second directions are perpendicular to each other. The tray body also includes a receiving groove disposed within a defined area of the tray frame, for receiving products to be transferred. The blister tray also includes a pick-and-place section disposed on the tray frame extending along the second direction, and the pick-and-place section also extends along the second direction. Thus, the above structure allows operators to conveniently use the pick-and-place section to pick up and place the blister tray carrying products to be transferred (e.g., heat sink covers), simplifying the operation process and improving work efficiency.
[0069] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
