Anti-static package for electronic chips

Claim 2

A magazine for a static electricity sensitive device of the type having a plurality of electrical terminals depending from a thin body, said magazine comprising an electrically conductive pad, said pad being comprised of a carbon black impregnated high density polyurethane foam, the magazine pad further having opposed top and bottom surfaces joined with opposing end and side surfaces to form a unitary pad, the thickness of the pad between the pad top and bottom surfaces being sufficient to accomodate the electrical terminals of the device upon being embedded therein, a cover having two free ends wrapped about said pad top, bottom and end surfaces and sized to present end portions in mutually overlapping relation atop said pad top surface; said cover being wrapped about said pad top, bottom and end surfaces wherein the two free ends overlap on said top surface in a reentrant manner to apply clamping pressure to said pad, means fastening said cover to said pad comprising a staple having a bight overlaying one of the cover end portions from which two staple legs extend completely through said pad and the bottom surface of said cover.

Claim 3

A magazine for static electrically sensitive devices of the type having a plurality of electrical terminals depending from thin bodies, said magazine comprising a row of electrically conductive pads jaxtaposed side by side with mutually coplanar top, bottom and end surfaces and with the thickness of each pad being sufficient to accomodate the terminals of the device upon being embedded therein, said agazine comprisig an electrically conductive pad, said pad being comprised of a carbon black impregnated high density polyurethane foam, a cover having two free ends wrapped about said row of pads overlaying said pads top, bottom and end surfaces and sized to present end portions in mutually overlapping relation atop said pads top surfaces and with said cover having score lines adjacent confronting sides of adjacent pads in said row of pads, the free ends of said cover atop the pads top surfaces overlap in a reentrant manner to apply clamping pressure to said pads, means independently fastening each of said pads to said cover between said score lines comprising a row of staples with a bight portion of each staple overlaying one of said cover end portions from which bight two steple leg portions extend completely through one of said pads and the other one of said cover end portions.

Claim 4

A magazine for static electrically sensitive devices of the type having a plurality of electrical terminals depending from thin bodies, said magazine comprising a row of electrically conductive pads jaxtaposed side by side with mutually coplanar top, bottom and end surfaces and with the thickness of each pad being sufficient to accomodate the terminals of the device upon being embedded therein, said agazine comprisig an electrically conductive pad, said pad being comprised of a carbon black impregnated high density polyurethane foam, a cover having two free ends wrapped about said row of pads overlaying said pads top, bottom and end surfaces and sized to present end portions in mutually overlapping relation atop said pads top surfaces and with said cover having score lines adjacent confronting sides of adjacent pads in said row of pads, the free ends of said cover atop the pads top surfaces overlap in a reentrant manner to apply clamping pressure to said pads, means independently fastening each of said pads to said cover between said score lines comprising a row of staples with a bight portion of each staple overlaying one of said cover end portions from which bight two steple leg portions extend completely through one of said pads and the other one of said cover end portions.
