Pallet, Process And Apparatus For Producing Crystal Resonators
US Patent:
4371078, Feb 1, 1983
Filed:
Aug 14, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/177983
Inventors:
Roger W. Hunt - Greensboro NC

Assignee:
CTS Corporation - Elkhart IN
International Classification:
B65D 7302
US Classification:
206329
Abstract:
A pallet (10) for receiving a plurality of electrical components used in fabricating crystal resonators (28, 40, 42, 46), has a number of spaced bosses (12) adapted to receive terminals (30, 32) of the components. The terminals (30, 32) extend through a longitudinal groove (20) so that the components can be readily tested at various phases of assembly. The pallet (10) includes a number of spaced teeth (22) whereby the pallet (10), together with the components, can be advanced through a plurality of testing-and-fabricating stations. The pallet (10) is guided in its longitudinal intermittent movement by means of a keyway (26) constructed integrally in a face of the pallet opposite the side having the teeth (22). The pallet (10), together with the components mounted thereon, can be transferred from one fabricating station to the other through a rack (56) which is adapted to receive a number of pallets (10). In this manner the pallets (10) and components are moved through a curing oven, a frequency adjusting station (120), a vacuum bake-off chamber (62), and finally an encapsulating station (150).
