Abstract
Abstract Small-size electronic parts having leads are packaged with a carrier tape composed of a tape base having tape feed holes and a tape body of formed plastic attached to the tape base. The carrier tape is unreeled from a supply reel, and the leads of the electronic parts are caused to pierce the tape body. The carrier tape with the electronic parts retained on the tape body is wound around a takeup reel.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for packaging small-sized electronic parts having leads with a carrier tape, said tape including a tape base having tape feed holes and a electrically conductive body of carbon and foamed plastic attached to the tape base, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a surface on the body remote from and substantially co-planar with the tape; (b) causing the leads of the electronic parts to pierce and deform the tape body and the tape body to grip the leads to hold the electronic parts in place on said surface; (c) winding the carrier tape with the electronic parts retained on the tape body around a reel; (d) slitting said tape body transversely at spaced longitudinal intervals prior to winding on the reel; and (e) coating said carrier tape with silicone prior to winding on the reel, thereby rendering said carrier tape nonstretchable and non-contractable.
