Compensating mold plunger for integrated circuit manufacture

Номер: US20130168898A1
Принадлежит: STMICROELECTRONICS ASIA PACIFIC PTE LTD

A device and method for manufacturing integrated circuit packaging using a mold plunger with position compensation in a manufacturing setting. In an embodiment, a compensating mold plunger, which may be used during the manufacture of an integrated circuit package, engages a die set on a carrier and within a bushing. This may be done to inject a mold compound on top of the die/carrier. If the bushing that is housing the die/carrier tandem is misaligned with the plunger in any lateral direction, the amount of pressure may be compromised. A compensating mold plunger includes a flexible portion that allows for the head of the plunger to properly engage the die/carrier despite any possible misalignments. Further, different die/carrier combinations may also be used with a compensating mold plunger because the pressure and force applied may be uniform inside a bushing despite the contents of the bushing.

The method of manufacturing a pillar candle consists in cooling down the mould before the raw material is poured into it. Then the heated raw material is poured into the mould and pressed. 1. The method of manufacturing pillar candles by pouring a flammable raw material in the form of a fluid into a mould , characterized with the fact that before the raw material is introduced , the mould is cooled down to the temperature ranging from 0-25° C. and the raw material heated up to the temperature from 30 to 70° C. in the form of a thick liquid is poured into the mould and after that the raw material undergoes the pressing process.2. The method recited in characterized with the fact that the mould is cooled down to the temperature from 6 to 25° C.3. The method recited in characterized with the fact that the temperature of the raw material being poured into the mould is from 30 to 55° C.4. The method recited in characterized with the fact that the temperature of the raw material being poured into the cooled-down mould is from 30 to 55° C.5. The method recited in characterized with the fact that the mould is cooled down to the temperature from 6 to 25° C. The subject-matter of the invention is a method of making a pillar candle.The pillar candles manufactured so far, i.e. candles which do not require additional cover to be used and which were made with the use of a traditional method required several operations which used to be time and energy consuming. In this method in order to achieve a good product it was necessary to heat the mould up to the temperature of approx. 60° C. and the paraffin of approx. 80° C. had to be poured into it. Then the mould was cooled down with water of 12° C., which made the paraffin consolidate. Excessive contractures of the mould charge used to be a frequent effect accompanying this method, which made it necessary to supplement the collapses inside the candle. In view of the fact that this method was time-consuming, the process could only be ...

A flow control device ( 10 ) operates on digital instruction from a controller, especially in association with a tire curing press. A valve body ( 42 ) has a flow conduit, along which a seat ( 52 ) is formed. A valve stem ( 48 ) has a valve seal ( 50 ) positioned in the flow conduit and an end that extends out of the valve body at a valve bonnet ( 54 ). The seal moves toward and away from the valve seat. A smart motor ( 20 ) in bi-directional communication ( 300 ) with the controller ( 500 ) sets the position of the seal by rotating an output shaft ( 22 ) to a predetermined position. An actuator ( 7 ) arranged between the stepper motor and the valve body translates rotation of the outlet shaft into axial movement of the valve stem. A spring ( 76 ) in the actuator moves the valve stem to a predetermined default position in the event of loss of power.
