Abstract:
A device for testing the adhesion of conductive leads joined to a package, comprising,first and second holding members for holding both the package and a portion of at least one lead therebetween in respective stationary positions, the holding members being capable of being separated from each other for removal and insertion of the package and leads, and of being closed with respect to each other for firmly holding the package and leads held therebetween, each of the first and second holding members having a first discrete region for holding the electrical package therebetween, a second discrete region for holding one lead therebetween and a third discrete region for holding another lead therebetween, said one lead and said another lead being leads which positionally oppose each other across the package, said leads having end regions, said second and third discrete regions of the first and second holding means being situated such that they hold the leads therebetween at the end regions, the first and second holding means being closable with respect to each other by mechanical means linking the first and second holding means with each other, and the first and second holding members each having an elongated cross piece and first, second and third arms extending from the cross piece wherein the ends of such arms comprise the first, second and third discrete regions of the first and second holding means for holding the package and leads.
