    摘要: A device for use in the semiconductor industry includes a robotic arm whose end effector includes electromagnetic means to hold a substrate carrier. A pushing member can move independently of a flat, spatula-like portion of the device and is configured to exert force against the substrate carrier while the spatula-like portion is retracted from the substrate carrier, after the substrate carrier has been brought to its intended position. In this manner, the position of the substrate carrier is maintained at its intended position as the spatula-like portion is retracted.

    摘要: An end effector has a tower with non-stacked spatulas. Tolerance stacking is avoided by making grooves in the tower relative to a common reference surface, and mounting the spatulas in such grooves. The grooves are provided in separate planar walls of the tower. The walls intersect to enhance the structural properties of the tower. The tower has a dual-purpose clamp formed integrally with one wall for use in assembling the tower and the spatulas, and for mounting the completed end effector in a load lock. The spatula may carry a wafer during various operations, e.g., semiconductor processing, material deposition and etching systems, or in flat panel display processing systems. The carrying of the wafers is notwithstanding vibration of equipment for performing the manufacturing operations, which vibration is primarily in a range of frequencies. Each spatula is formed with a planar platform having an aperture formed therein such that the platform carrying the wafer has a resonant frequency dimensioned so that the resonant frequency while carrying the wafer is outside of the range of frequencies of the equipment vibration. Holes are provided around the aperture, and the spatula is provided with a pad for assembly with each of the holes. Each of the pads has a wafer support surface and a plurality of legs depending from the support surface. The legs are flexed to permit reception of the pad in one of the holes. Methods are disclosed for making the tower, the spatulas, and the end effector with these features.

    摘要: A device for use in the semiconductor industry includes a robotic arm whose end effector includes at least two prongs designed to hold a substrate carrier. A pushing member located between the prongs can move independently of the prongs and is configured to exert force against the substrate carrier while the prongs are retracted from the substrate carrier, after the substrate carrier has been brought to its intended position. In this manner, the position of the substrate carrier is maintained at its intended position as the prongs are retracted. Each of the prongs may include a claw or gripping member for grasping the substrate carrier.

    摘要: A telephone headset including a boom microphone, a earphone, and an ear support constructed and arranged to be adjustable and comfortable for a wearer. The headset is configured with an adjustable ear support to fit a variety of ear sizes without affecting the balance of the ear support on the ear of the wearer. The ear support includes a rotational hinge which is biased into a given position by a compression washer. The earphone is removably and adjustably attached to a mounting ring which in turn is movably attached to the ear support by a spring biased ball and socket joint. The combination of flexible joints and removability of the earphone provides the degrees of freedom and stiction necessary to permit the earphone to be worn comfortably on either ear of the wearer. A strain relief for the electrical connections is attached to the earphone which directs the electrical connections toward the plane of the head, thereby eliminating a torque which otherwise would tend to dislodge the ear support from the ear. The earphone includes a series of openings in its rear surface to maximize its acoustics. The boom microphone includes a spring biased ball and socket joint to movably fix the orientation of the microphone with respect to the wearer to a good comfort level. The boom microphone ball and socket joint is configured with a tab and stop to prohibit 360 degree rotation of the boom to prevent strain on the electrical connections to the microphone.
