The upper wall is provided with a recess indented from the outside toward the inside of the container main body, and a protrusion projecting outward on the inside of the recess. The top flange is provided with an insertion part which can be inserted into the recess from the outside of the upper wall. The insertion part is provided with a through-hole capable of penetrating from the side further from the upper wall to the side nearer the upper wall. With the recess in the upper wall opening upward and the insertion part of the top flange inserted into the recess, a molten resin poured into the through-hole of the insertion part from above fills the recess from the bottom surface thereof up to the outer peripheral surface of the protrusion and the inner peripheral surface of the through-hole.

There is provided a device and method for controlling a tightness of at least one transport enclosure for conveyance and atmospheric storage of semiconductor substrates, the transport enclosure including at least two ventilation ports, the device including at least one interface configured to be coupled to the transport enclosure, the interface including at least two connecting heads, at least one connecting head of the heads being formed by a measurement head configured to engage in a ventilation port of the ventilation ports of the transport enclosure, the measurement head including a projecting end piece, opening through at least one aperture, and a peripheral sealing element surrounding the end piece, all of the ventilation ports of the transport enclosure being coupled to the connecting head of the interface. There is also provided a method for controlling the tightness of the transport enclosure.

A component carrier includes a core with a dielectric body, a component embedded at least partially in the core, a first dielectric layer being arranged at a bottom side of the core and of the component, and a second dielectric layer being arranged at a top side of the core and of the component. A gap around the component in the core is filled adjacent to the bottom side with material of the first dielectric layer and is filled adjacent to the top side with material of the second dielectric layer.

A wafer cassette includes a case, a plurality of wafer trays, and a plurality of transmission mechanisms. The wafer trays are disposed in the case. Each of the wafer trays includes a central opening, a first groove, and a second groove. The diameter of the second groove is greater than that of the first groove. A bottom surface of the second groove is higher than that of the first groove. The first and second grooves surround the central opening. Each of the transmission mechanisms is connected to the corresponding wafer tray to move the wafer tray between a pick-up position and a received position. Since the wafer tray has grooves with different diameters, the wafer tray is capable of receiving wafers with different sizes.

A transport device is capable of reliably determining a presence or absence of a lid provided on a container and/or determining detachment of the lid, with a simple configuration. The transport device transports a container that includes a lid on a side surface. The transport device includes a lid fall preventive member disposed so as to face an upper end of the lid of the container located in a transport position, and a lid detector that is disposed in the lid fall preventive member and detects the presence or absence of the upper end of the lid.

The present invention provides a packaging carton for fragile, apparatus for making cartoon bottom, and method for making the carton bottom. The packaging carton includes a bottom and peripheral wall which jointly define a receiving space far storing fragile glass substrate with the bottom. The bottom has a skeleton configuration and is made from plastic blowing technology. By the forgoing, the present invention can effectively reduce the packaging cost, and which in turn reducing the cost of the product.

The present invention provides a reticle pod comprising a lower cover and a support mechanism. The lower cover includes a carrying surface and a plurality of securing seats distributed on the carrying surface. The support mechanism includes a supporting portion extending upward for supporting a reticle or a reticle carrier, and a securing portion opposite the supporting portion, wherein the securing portion is detachably connected with a corresponding securing seat, so that the support mechanism can be selectively installed on the lower cover.

A handle for a wafer carrier that includes an insertable member configured to be inserted into an aperture of the wafer carrier, and a locking mechanism moveable relative to the insertable member. A tab of the insertable member retains the insertable member in the aperture when in an engaged state. When in a locked state, the locking mechanism maintains the tab in the engaged state and a flexible member of the locking mechanism is positioned to maintain the locking mechanism in the locked state. A wafer carrier includes the detachable handle and the locking mechanism.

An apparatus for storing and transporting semiconductor elements includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes a first front side wall, a first rear side wall, a top wall, and at least one pin holder integrally extending from the first rear side wall. The second portion includes a second front side wall, a second rear side wall, a bottom wall, and at least one pivotal pin structure integrally coupled with and extending from the second rear side wall. The at least one pivotal pin structure comprises a shaft, and a head connected with the shaft. The at least one pin holder defines a cavity sized and shaped to accept the head of the at least one pivotal pin structure. The first portion and the second portion are pivotally movable between an open configuration and a closed container configuration.

A housing accommodates: a valve body capable of moving between a closing position and an opening position in an outer opening portion, the closing position closing the outer opening portion and the opening position opening the outer opening portion; a biased member having a tubular shape and connected to the valve body, the biased member supported by the housing so as to be movable in the housing and guiding the movement of the valve body so as to move integrally with the valve body; and a biasing member biasing the biased member so that the valve body moves to the closing position.
