A clamping ring is connected to one end of the telescopic rod.

[0005] As a further description of the above technical solution: The external damping assembly includes a connecting bottom shell, with a side damping damper connected to one side of the connecting bottom shell, and a side damping spring sleeved on the outer side of the side damping damper. At the same time, a bottom damping damper is connected to the lower bottom side of the connecting bottom shell, and a bottom damping spring sleeved on the outer side of the bottom damping damper.

[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution: One end of the inner shock-absorbing spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the placement box, and the other end of the inner shock-absorbing spring is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing clamp.

[0016] Reference Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a wafer transport box with shock absorption function, including an inner shock absorption fixing component 1 and an outer shock absorption component 2. The inner shock absorption fixing component 1 includes a placement box 11, and an inner shock absorption damper 12 is connected to the inner side of the placement box 11. An inner shock absorption spring 13 is sleeved on the outer side of the inner shock absorption damper 12, and a fixing clip 14 is connected to one end of the inner shock absorption damper 12. A placement plate 15 is provided on one side of the fixing clip 14, and a placement groove 16 is provided on the placement plate 15.

At the same time, a bottom shock absorption damper 24 is connected to the lower bottom side of the connecting bottom shell 21, and a bottom shock absorption spring 25 is sleeved on the outer side of the bottom shock absorption damper 24.

[0017] Specifically, one end of the inner damping spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the placement box 11, and the other end of the inner damping spring 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing clamp 14. The fixing clamp 14 is U-shaped and slides inside the placement box 11. One end of the fixing spring 18 is fixedly disposed inside the placement plate 15, and the other end of the fixing spring 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping ring 19. The clamping ring 19 has two sets and is symmetrically fitted on both sides of the wafer. One end of the side damping spring 23 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the connecting bottom shell 21. The other end of 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the placement box 11, and multiple sets of side damping dampers 22 and side damping springs 23 are evenly distributed on the inner side of the connecting bottom shell 21 and the outer side of the placement box 11. The two ends of the bottom damping springs 25 are fixedly connected to the lower bottom side of the connecting bottom shell 21 and the lower side of the placement box 11, respectively. Multiple sets of bottom damping dampers 24 and bottom damping springs 25 are evenly distributed on the bottom side of the placement box 11 and the lower bottom side of the connecting bottom shell 21. The upper side of the placement box 11 is hinged with a box cover 3, and the box cover 3 is locked to the placement box 11 by bolts 4.

[0018] In use, the inner damping element is connected to the inside of the placement box, and an inner damping spring is sleeved on its outside. This structural design allows the inner damping element to absorb some of the vibration energy through its elastic deformation when the wafer is subjected to external vibration, while the inner damping spring further buffers the vibration, reducing the impact on the wafer. One end of the inner damping spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the placement box, and the other end is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing clamp. The fixing clamp is U-shaped and can slide inside the placement box. This design allows the fixing clamp to move within a certain range, thus better adapting to changes in wafer size. At the same time, the spring's extension and contraction further buffers the vibration. When the wafer is placed in the placement groove, the clamping ring clamps the wafer tightly through the elastic force of the fixing spring, ensuring that the wafer will not loosen during transportation. The design of the telescopic rod and the fixing spring allows the clamping ring to be finely adjusted according to the wafer diameter, further improving the stability and reliability of the clamping. When the transport box is subjected to external lateral impact, the side damping element and the side damping spring can effectively absorb and buffer lateral vibration, reducing the impact on the placement box and the wafer. This multi-unit, evenly distributed design ensures effective cushioning of lateral impacts from all directions. When the transport box is impacted from the bottom, the bottom shock-absorbing dampers and springs effectively absorb and cushion the bottom vibrations, reducing the impact on the placement box and wafers. This design ensures effective cushioning of vibrations from any direction during transportation, thereby maximizing wafer protection. A lid is hinged to the top of the placement box and secured with bolts. This design not only facilitates wafer placement and removal but also ensures the lid's stability during transportation, preventing it from loosening or opening due to vibration, further protecting the wafers.
