ABSTRACT:
Latches are pivotally provided on opposite sides of an IC device stored in the pocked of an IC carrier. Connecting arms of the latches are engaged in engagement holes formed in actuator members which are biased upwardly by springs. The top surface of the IC carrier, except the IC pocket, is covered by an actuating plate. The positioning pins of an IC set/removal mechanism are inserted into holes of the IC carrier so as to cause the mounting plate to which the pins are secured to press the actuating plate down against the top face of the IC carrier causing the actuator members to pivot the latches, whereby the hold-down lugs of the latches are retracted from the top of the IC. The IC is now ready to be picked up by a suction pad.
