Further, at least one door device 23 is disposed on the outer surface 21 of the door body 2 to open or close the front opening wafer cassette. In the above-mentioned front-opening wafer cassette, since the semiconductor wafer is horizontally placed inside the casing ig, 'the wafer opening life of the front opening wafer cassette must be limited to C〇=_' to avoid the wafer The vibration generates an eccentricity or moves toward the opening of the casing W. Referring to Fig. 2, a schematic diagram of a crystal cross section is known. The wafer limiting member 1 is disposed in the opening of the limiting wafer, and is singly held on each of the wafers by using a plurality of left=the inner surface 22 of the two rows of elastic arms 11 The circular limiter (10) prevents the wafer from being ectopic or moving toward the body during the transmission process. The direction of the opening moves. However, the inner surface 22 of the above & door body 20 is provided with two rows of perforated cymbals, and is fixed on the wafer by the 11GP and the circular ring in the form of a material. It is complicated and it is easy to dig a plurality of perforations, causing the gas to become the door 2 cleaning (4). In addition, each t = = point of the above case is on the wafer, which appears to be a crystal _2:::=; At the location, these will cause friction between the wafer and generate particulate dust and contaminate the wafer. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The pre-county technology wafer cassette has a complicated wafer structure and is easy to make particles and dust. One of the main defects of the present invention is the wafer of the wafer. The system: inner = 吟 〜 ~ A sides of the 'each of the wafer limiter has a plurality of contact ends, can also Li position due to vibration ectopic or moving in the direction of the center of the opening, eve 1 is open Moving in the direction of the sides, the wafer and the wafer limiter can be avoided to generate particulate dust and contaminate the wafer. Therefore, another main object of the present invention is to provide a wafer day yen with a wafer limiter. The wafer restriction member is placed on both sides of the inner surface of the door near the center, and the 'mother wafer restriction member has a plurality of contact ends, and the plurality of contact ends are sequentially brought into contact with the wafer to thereby provide stability. The push is to avoid friction between the wafer and the wafer restriction member to generate particulate dust and contaminate the wafer. Another main object of the present invention is to provide a wafer with a wafer restriction member. Wafer restrictions are placed on the inside of the door Close to the center, the wafer restraint is integrally formed with the inner surface of the door, and the cost required for fabrication is low except for the simple structure. For the above purposes, the present invention discloses a wafer restraint. The wafer 201004849 box includes a box body and a door body. The inside of the box body is provided with a plurality of slots for accommodating a plurality of wafers, and an opening is provided on one side of the box body for inputting the wafer. And output, and the inner surface of the door body is disposed near the center with two rows of spacers arranged and aligned, wherein each of the wafer limiting members has a base, and one end of the base is fixed to the door The other end of the body is connected to a crank arm, wherein the crank arm has a first contact end and a second contact end, so that the wafer limiting member can sequentially utilize the first contact end and the second contact end To limit the movement of the wafer in the center of the opening direction and the direction of the opening from both sides. [Embodiment] In order to make the technical content, the purpose of the invention and the effect achieved by the invention more complete and clear Dew, as explained in detail below, please refer to the figure shown in the figure below. First, please refer to Figure 3, which is a schematic diagram of the first type of wafer cassette of the present invention. A front open type wafer cassette mainly includes a box body 10 and a door body 20, and a plurality of slots 11 are disposed inside the box body 10 for accommodating a plurality of wafers, and one side of the box body 10 There is an opening 12 for providing wafer input and output, and the door body 20 has an outer surface 21 and an inner surface 22, and the outer surface 21 of the door body 20 is provided with at least one latch device (not shown) In order to open or close the front open wafer cassette, two rows of wafer limiter modules 400 are disposed in the middle of the inner surface 22 of the door body 20, and each row of wafer limiter modules 400 is plural A plurality of spaced-apart wafer limit members 40 are formed, and each of the wafer limit members 40 is aligned with each of the wafer limit members 40 on the adjacent wafer limiter module 400. As shown in FIG. 4A, each of the plurality of wafer restriction members 40 has a base portion 41, and one end of the base portion 41 is fixed to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20, and the other One end is connected to a curved arm 42 , wherein the curved arm 42 has a first contact end 43 and a second contact end 44 . And each of the wafer restriction members 40 201004849 is an integrally formed elastic structure (for example, a thermoplastic elastic structure). When the door body 20 and the casing 10 are not bonded or just joined, the first contact of the wafer restriction member 40 The wires (43-44) of the end 43 and the second contact end 44 are parallel to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20. At this time, the wafer is first in contact with the first contact end 43. When the wafer contacts the first contact end 43, the base 41 is deformed and the lever drives the curved arm 42 so that the other contact end on the curved arm 42 is The second contact end 44 sequentially contacts the wafer. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4B, the door body 20 is in close contact with the casing 10, and the connection (43-44) of the first contact end 43 and the second contact end 44 of the wafer restriction member 40 is followed by the door body 20. The inner surface 22 forms an angle. It is clear that each of the wafer restriction members 40 is in contact with the wafer by two contact ends, and in addition to restricting the wafer from moving in the center of the opening direction, it is also possible to provide a movement in which the crystal is moved toward the opening. The base portion 41 and the curved arm 42 of the above-mentioned wafer limiting member 40 can also be made of two different materials or elastic structures (for example, a thermoplastic elastic structure), such as plastics of different hardness, so that the base portion 41 can generate a large deformation and bend. The arm 42 is less susceptible to deformation, whereby the lower half of the wafer restraint 40 provides good deformation and the upper half provides a stable lever crank. The base portion 41 of the wafer restriction member 40 or the wafer restriction member 40 is arranged as an elastic structure (for example, a thermoplastic elastic structure), except that the deformation can be achieved such that the first contact end 43 and the second contact end 44 are sequentially aligned with the wafer. In addition to the contact, the elastic structure also has the function of shock absorption, which can prevent the wafer from being ectopic due to sudden vibration or moving toward the opening of the casing 10. Moreover, the base portion 41 has at least one bent portion. Therefore, when the wafer contacts the first contact end 43, the angle of the bent portion of the base portion 41 changes to drive the crank arm 42, so that the second contact end 44 can be sequentially Contact the wafer. The first contact end 43 and the second contact end 44 may also have a recess to trap the wafer into the recess to prevent the wafer from moving up and down. The plurality of wafer restriction members 40 may be formed on a base, and the base is fixed to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20. Of course, the plurality of wafer restraints 40 can also be formed directly from the inner surface 22 of the door body 20, thereby reducing the cost of production. Next, referring to Fig. 5, there is shown a schematic view of a second type of wafer cassette of the present invention. The open wafer cassette is the same as the first type of wafer cassette, and comprises a box body 10 and a door body 20, except that the wafer limiter module 500 is fixed on both sides of the inner surface 22 of the door body 20. The wafer limiter 50 has three contact ends. As shown in FIG. 6A, each of the wafer restricting members 50 has a base portion 51. One end of the base portion 51 is fixed to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20, and the other end thereof is connected to a first curved arm 52. The first curved arm 52 has two free ends, wherein the free end closer to the center forms a first contact end 54, and the other free end that is further away from the center is further connected to a second curved arm 53. The second curved arm 53 has a second contact end 55 and a third contact end 56. This embodiment is similar to the material, structure and operation principle of the previous embodiment. When the door body 20 and the casing 10 are not bonded or just joined, the first contact end 54 and the second contact end 55 of the wafer limiting member 50 are similar. The line (54-55-56) of the third contact end 56 is parallel to the inner side 22 of the door body 20. At this time, the wafer first contacts the first contact end 54. When the wafer contacts the first contact end 54, the base 51 is deformed and the lever drives the first crank arm 52 and the second crank arm 53 to make the second The second contact end 55 and the third contact end 56 on the curved arm 53 sequentially contact the wafer. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6B, the door body 20 is in close contact with the casing 10 and the first contact end 54, the second contact end 55 and the third contact end 56 of the wafer restriction member 50 are connected (54- 55-56) forms an angle with the inner surface 22 of the door body 20. Obviously, since each of the wafer limiting members 50 provides three contact ends on the wafer, the wafer can be more stably restrained from moving in the center of the opening direction or moving in the direction of the opening. Of course, in this embodiment, a hinge 57 can be disposed between the two free ends of the first crank arm 52 and adjacent to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20, and the hinge 57 is fixed to the inner surface 22 of the door body 20. Therefore, when the base portion 51 is deformed, the first crank arm 52 and the second crank arm 53 can be driven by the lever relatively stably, so that the first contact end 54 and the second contact end 55 201004849 are the two touch ends of the companion; 53 can also be of different materials or such as: thermoplastic elastic structure) 'like plastics of different hardness, can make the deformation of the base bomb ^ not tolerate (four) change m touch... the third contact end 56 can also have a depression, = trap In the middle, avoid the wafer moving up and down.
