[0003]然而，这样堆栈载盘与上盖的方式，虽然能防止载板脱离载盘，但却容易在载盘与上盖没有精准对位的情况下，而让载板有被载盘或上盖压伤的风险
[0015]根据上述实施例揭露之载盘，由于止挡件可活动地设置于盘体并邻近于承载凹槽，因此止挡件能选择性地重迭于承载凹槽(即对承载凹槽中的载板进行止挡)或与承载凹槽错位(即释放对承载凹槽中的载板之止挡)。如此一来，便无需将多个载盘彼此堆栈或是在载盘上额外堆栈上盖，而能在排除载板被刮伤的风险之情况下，防止载板脱离载盘。

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a carrier tray, and more particularly to a carrier tray for supporting at least one carrier plate. Background Technology
[0002] Generally, to facilitate the transport of multiple pallets at once, these pallets are placed in a vehicle. Traditional vehicles used for transporting pallets consist of multiple layers of pallets and a top cover. These pallets are stacked on top of each other, with the top cover stacked on the topmost pallet.
[0003] However, while this method of stacking the tray and the cover can prevent the tray from detaching from the tray, it can also easily lead to the tray being damaged by the tray or the cover if the tray and the cover are not precisely aligned. Utility Model Content
[0004] The present invention provides a carrier tray that uses a movable stop to limit the carrier plate, thereby preventing the carrier plate from detaching from the carrier tray without the risk of the carrier plate being scratched.
[0005] An embodiment of this utility model discloses a carrier tray for supporting at least one carrier plate and includes a tray body and at least one stop member. The tray body has an outer surface and at least one bearing groove. The at least one bearing groove is recessed from the outer surface along a recess direction and is used to receive at least one carrier plate. At least one stop member is movably disposed on the tray body and adjacent to the at least one bearing groove. The at least one stop member includes a stop position and a clearance position. When the at least one stop member is in the stop position, the at least one stop member overlaps at least a portion of the at least one bearing groove along the recess direction. When the at least one stop member is in the clearance position, the at least one stop member is offset from the at least one bearing groove along the recess direction.
[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, at least one stop member is slidably disposed on the disc body along a sliding direction. The sliding direction is perpendicular to the recessed direction.
[0007] In one embodiment of this utility model, at least one stop member includes a sliding member and two reset protrusions. The two reset protrusions protrude from opposite sides of the sliding member and are made of flexible material. The sliding member is slidably disposed on the disc body along the sliding direction. When the at least one stop member is in the yielding position, the two reset protrusions are deformed by being pushed by two pushing protrusions on the disc body.
[0008] In one embodiment of the present invention, the carrier disk further includes at least one release protrusion. The sliding member of at least one stop has a recess. At least one release protrusion is disposed on the disk body and adjacent to at least one bearing groove. The at least one stop and the at least one release protrusion are linearly symmetrical.
[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the number of at least one stop member is two. The number of at least one release protrusion is two. The two stop members are point-symmetrical, and the two release protrusions are point-symmetrical.
[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, the sliding member of at least one stop member further has a push-receiving inclined surface. The push-receiving inclined surface is located in the insertion hole.
[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, the carrier tray further includes a plurality of limiting protrusions. The limiting protrusions protrude from a plurality of side surfaces of at least one bearing groove and are used to limit at least one carrier plate along the recess direction.
[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the number of at least one bearing groove is multiple. The disc body includes an outer frame and multiple connecting ribs. The outer surface is defined by the outer frame and the connecting ribs. The opposite ends of the connecting ribs are respectively connected to the outer frame, so that the outer frame and the connecting ribs together define the bearing groove.
[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, the carrier tray further includes at least one positioning post. The outer frame has at least one positioning hole. The at least one positioning hole is located on the outer surface. The at least one positioning post is disposed on the outer surface. The at least one positioning post and the at least one positioning hole are linearly symmetrical.
[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the outer frame further has a notch. The notch is located at a corner of the outer frame.
[0015] According to the carrier tray disclosed in the above embodiments, since the stop member is movably disposed on the tray body and adjacent to the bearing groove, the stop member can selectively overlap with the bearing groove (i.e., stop the carrier plate in the bearing groove) or be misaligned with the bearing groove (i.e., release the stop on the carrier plate in the bearing groove). In this way, it is not necessary to stack multiple carrier trays on top of each other or to stack additional covers on the carrier tray, and the carrier plate can be prevented from detaching from the carrier tray without the risk of the carrier plate being scratched.

[0022] The following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model outlines its features and advantages. This content is sufficient to enable anyone skilled in the art to understand the technical content of the embodiments of this utility model and to implement them accordingly. Furthermore, based on the disclosure, patent claims, and drawings in this specification, anyone skilled in the art can easily understand the related objectives and advantages of this utility model. The following embodiments further illustrate the viewpoints of this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model in any way.
[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3 . Figure 1 This is a perspective view of a carrier disk and carrier plate according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The top view of the carrier disk. Figure 3 for Figure 1 A magnified view of a portion of the exploded 3D diagram of the carrier disk.
[0024] In this embodiment, for example, the carrier 10 is used to carry at least one carrier board 20 and includes a tray body 100, at least one positioning post 200, a plurality of limiting bumps 300, at least one stop 400, and at least one release bump 500. In actual use, multiple carriers 10 can be placed in an open wafer pod (FOUP) for transport.
[0025] In this embodiment, the disk body 100 includes, for example, an outer frame 110 and a plurality of connecting ribs 120. The opposite ends of the connecting ribs 120 are respectively connected to the outer frame 110, such that the outer frame 110 and the connecting ribs 120 together define an outer surface 101 and a plurality of supporting grooves 102. The supporting grooves 102 are recessed from the outer surface 101 along a recessing direction R and are used to accommodate the carrier plate 20. Furthermore, a bottom surface 1020 of the supporting groove 102 may have an opening 1021 to prevent the disk body 100 from contacting specific areas of the carrier plate 20 and to reduce the overall weight of the disk body 100. Additionally, these connecting ribs 120 may be perpendicular to each other and staggered. The outer frame 110 has, for example, at least one positioning hole 111. The positioning hole 111 is located on the outer surface 101.
[0026] At least one positioning post 200 is disposed in the portion of the outer surface 101 formed by the outer frame 110. In this embodiment, the at least one positioning post 200 and the at least one positioning hole 111 are, for example, linearly symmetrical. Specifically, the at least one positioning post 200 and the at least one positioning hole 111 are, for example, linearly symmetrical with respect to a center line L1 or a center line L2 of the disk body 100, that is, the at least one positioning post 200 and the at least one positioning hole 111 are separated from the center line L1 by the same distance D1 or from the center line L2 by the same distance D2. Further, in this embodiment, the plurality of positioning posts 200 are, for example, point-symmetrical with respect to a geometric center C1 of the disk body 100, and the plurality of positioning holes 111 are, for example, point-symmetrical with respect to the geometric center C1. It is understood that the center lines L1 and L2 pass through the geometric center C1.
[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the outer frame 110 may have a notch 112, for example. The notch 112 is located at a corner of the outer frame 110. Through the design of the notch 112, it is possible to identify with the naked eye or an image capture device whether the carrier plate 20 is placed at the correct angle in the carrier tray 10.
[0028] Please see Figures 3 to 5 . Figure 4 for Figure 1 A partial enlarged view of the top view of the carrier disk. Figure 5 For along Figure 4 The cross-sectional view of the carrier disk is shown in section line 5-5.
[0029] The limiting protrusions 300 protrude from multiple side surfaces 1022 of the bearing groove 102, and are used to limit the carrier plate 20 along the recess direction R (which can be understood as along the recess direction R or in a direction opposite to the recess direction R). Specifically, as follows Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting protrusions 300 protruding from different side surfaces 1022 abut against different sides of the carrier plate 20, and together clamp the carrier plate 20 to limit its position along the recessed direction R. For example, each side surface 1022 of a bearing groove 102 may have two limiting protrusions 300 protruding to allow the limiting protrusions 300 to clamp the carrier plate 20 more firmly. In addition, each limiting protrusion 300 may have a guide ramp 310 to facilitate the carrier plate 20 being guided into the bearing groove 102 by the guide ramp 310.
[0030] At least one stop 400 is movably disposed on the disc body 100 and adjacent to the bearing groove 102. Specifically, in this embodiment, the at least one stop 400 includes, for example, a slider 410 and two reset protrusions 420. The two reset protrusions 420 protrude from opposite sides of the slider 410 and are made of a flexible material. The two reset protrusions 420 abut against two push protrusions 108 of the disc body 100. The slider 410 is slidably disposed on the disc body 100 along a sliding direction S perpendicular to the recess direction R. For example, two hooks 411 of the slider 410 are slidably disposed in two grooves 105 of the disc body 100. Furthermore, the slider 410 has, for example, an insertion hole 412 and a push-receiving slope 413. The push-receiving slope 413 is located in the insertion hole 412.
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, when at least one stop member 400 is in the stop position, the at least one stop member 400 overlaps at least a portion of the bearing groove 102 along the concave direction R, thereby preventing the bearing groove 102 from disengaging from the bearing groove 102 in a direction opposite to the concave direction R. Furthermore, as... Figure 5 As shown, the carrier plate 20 has a first surface 21 and a second surface 22 that are opposite to each other. The first surface 21 faces away from the bottom surface 1020 of the groove, that is, the first surface 21 of the carrier plate 20 is exposed.
[0032] At least one release protrusion 500 is disposed on the disc body 100 and adjacent to the bearing groove 102. The at least one release protrusion 500 may be disposed, for example, on one of the limiting protrusions 300. The at least one stop 400 and the at least one release protrusion 500 are, for example, line-symmetrical. Specifically, the at least one stop 400 and the at least one release protrusion 500 are, for example, line-symmetrical with respect to a center line L3 or a center line L4 of the bearing groove 102, that is, the at least one stop 400 and the at least one release protrusion 500 are separated from the center line L3 by the same distance D3 or from the center line L4 by the same distance D4. Further, in this embodiment, each bearing groove 102 is, for example, adjacent to two stop 400s and two release protrusions 500. The two stop 400s are, for example, point-symmetrical with respect to a geometric center C2 of the bearing groove 102, and the two release protrusions 500 are, for example, also point-symmetrical with respect to the geometric center C2. It is understandable that centerlines L3 and L4 will pass through the geometric center C2.
[0033] The following will be referred to Figures 6 to 9 This explains how to use the carrier tray 10, or more specifically, how to flip the carrier plate 20 using the carrier tray 10. Figures 6 to 9 This illustrates how to use the carrier disk.
[0034] First, such as Figure 6As shown, a carrier tray 10 carrying a carrier plate 20 and another carrier tray 11 without a carrier plate 20 are provided, wherein carrier trays 10 and 11 have identical structures. Carrier tray 11 can be placed in the production equipment and taken out for use when flipping is required.
[0035] Next, as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, when the carrier 11 approaches the carrier 10 along the moving direction M, due to the symmetrical design of the positioning holes 111 and positioning posts 200, the positioning holes 111 and positioning posts 200 of the carrier 10 will be positioned relative to each other with the positioning holes 111 and positioning posts 200 of the carrier 11, respectively. The point symmetry design of the positioning holes 111 and positioning posts 200 allows the carrier 11 to be positioned relative to the carrier 10 at different placement angles more flexibly.
[0036] In addition, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the carrier 11 approaches the carrier 10 along the moving direction M, the release protrusion 500 of the carrier 11 inserts into the insertion hole 412 of the sliding member 410 of the stop member 400 of the carrier 10, pushing against the pushed inclined surface 413 of the sliding member 410. In this way, the stop member 400 moves from the stop position to the yielding position along the sliding direction S. When the stop member 400 is in the yielding position, the stop member 400 is misaligned with the bearing groove 102 along the concave direction R. It should be noted that the release protrusion 500 of the carrier 10 also inserts into the insertion hole 412 of the sliding member 410 of the stop member 400 of the carrier 11.
[0037] Furthermore, when the stop 400 is in the yielding position, the two reset convex plates 420 will be deformed by the pushing of the two pushing convex portions 108 respectively.
[0038] Next, please refer to Figures 7 to 9 Because the stop 400 is misaligned with the bearing groove 102 along the concave direction R, after the carriers 10 and 11 are flipped along the flipping direction F, the carrier plate 20 will fall onto the carrier 11 due to gravity. After the carrier plate 20 falls onto the carrier 11, the second surface 22 will be exposed, thus completing the flipping of the carrier plate 20. It can be understood that after the carriers 10 and 11 are separated from each other, the deformed reset protrusion 420 in the carrier 10 or carrier 11 will return to its original shape, thus assisting in resetting the stop 400 from the yielding position to the limiting position. Therefore, the stop 400 on the carrier 11 will reset to the limiting position and limit the carrier plate 20.
[0039] By utilizing the symmetrical stop 400 and release protrusion 500, the carrier plate 20 can be flipped using identical carrier trays 10 and 11, allowing for visual inspection of both the first surface 21 and the second surface 22 of the carrier plate 20. This reduces the cost of inspecting the carrier plate 20 (requiring only a single mold to manufacture identical carrier trays 10 and 11) and improves the convenience of inspecting the carrier plate 20. Furthermore, by designing the stop 400 and release protrusion 500 with point symmetry, the carrier tray 11 can be more flexibly placed at different angles to flip the carrier plate 20 together with the carrier tray 10.
[0040] According to the carrier tray disclosed in the above embodiments, since the stop member is movably disposed on the tray body and adjacent to the bearing groove, the stop member can selectively overlap with the bearing groove (i.e., stop the carrier plate in the bearing groove) or be misaligned with the bearing groove (i.e., release the stop on the carrier plate in the bearing groove). In this way, it is not necessary to stack multiple carrier trays on top of each other or to stack additional covers on the carrier tray, and the carrier plate can be prevented from detaching from the carrier tray without the risk of the carrier plate being scratched.
