Drawer apparatus
10178910 · 2019-01-15 · ·

A drawer apparatus capable of locking and unlocking a drawer without position control and motor stop control is provided. A lock frame is released from the hook to be brought into an operable state by unidirectional rotation of a DC motor in an engaged state. A drawer is released from an anchor to be advanced out of the retracted position when the lock frame operates. A planetary gear unit is pushed by the lock frame. A small-diameter planetary gear is thereby shifted from the engaged state to a default state. The anchor is engaged with the drawer when the advanced drawer is pushed back to the retracted position. The hook is engaged with a lock when the advanced drawer is pushed back to the retracted position.

Furniture drive

A furniture drive for retracting a movably supported furniture part into a closed position relative to a furniture carcass includes a housing, an entrainment member which can be releasably coupled to the movable furniture part, a spring device for applying a force to the entrainment member, and a guide path arranged or formed on the housing. The entrainment member is displaceably arranged along the guide path, and the guide path includes a first bend for releasably locking the entrainment member. The guide path includes at least one second bend for releasably locking the entrainment member, and at least one movably-supported switch element with a first and with a second switching position is provided. The switch element, in the first switching position, blocks the first bend so that the entrainment member can move into the second bend and the switch element, in the second switching position, unblocks the first bend so that the entrainment member can move into the first bend.

Wafer cassette

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.
