Patent ID: 8132660

Claim:
A system for handling a semiconductor module, the system comprising: a rotor configured to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise; a rotation driving device configured to rotate the rotor; at least one insertion portion configured to insert a semiconductor module into a socket, the at least one insertion portion connected to the rotor at a first position; and at least one extraction portion configured to extract the semiconductor module from the socket, the at least one extraction portion connected to the rotor at a second position, wherein the rotor is further configured to move the at least one insertion portion and the at least one extraction portion near the socket, wherein the insertion portion includes: an insertion portion body connected to the rotor; a movable plate connected to the insertion portion body, the movable plate configured to move up and down; a pusher on the movable plate, the pusher configured to contact an upper surface of the semiconductor module and configured to press the semiconductor module towards the socket; a gripper configured to grip both lateral surfaces of the semiconductor module, the gripper being further configured to move along a slider, the slider being on the movable plate and the slider being configured to direct the gripper towards a lateral surface of the semiconductor module; a gripper driving device in the movable plate and configured to drive the gripper; and a movable plate driving device in the insertion portion body configured to move the movable plate up and down.
