TRANSDUCER TOOL HOLDER

摘要

A transducer horn for holding a tool, such as a capillary, for a wire bonder has a pair of resilient arms which flex to clamp about a tool placed in a passage between the arms. The arms have free distal ends between which a wedge is inserted to open the passage to allow the tool to be inserted into, or removed from, the tool holder. The arms may be covered by protective walls, in which case an end wall is provided with an aperture to allow the wedge to access a slot between the arms.
