Abstract
A tape (10) for storage of electronic flatpacks (18) has pockets (12) each of which has a floor (12A) inwardly deformed to define a protrusion (14) which is square in outline. The protrusion (14) defines a support surface (14A) disposed at a first clearance (X) from the pocket floor (12A) and a ridge (14B) which extends along the outer peripheral boundary of the support surface (14A), the top of the ridge (14B) being disposed at a second clearance (Y) from the pocket floor (12A) and by a third clearance (Z) from the walls (16) of the pocket (12). An electronic flatpack (18) having a body (19) and protruding cranked connector pins (20) is carried by the support surface (14A), the pins (20) being disposed over the ridge (14B) and in the third clearance (Z). When the flatpack (18) is lifted from the pocket (12), clearances (X) and (Z) prevent the pins (20) from being damaged by coming into contact with the walls (16) or floor of the pocket. A cover film (21) is releasably secured along the length of the tape (10) to hold the flatpacks (18) into the support surface (14A) and to permit the tape (10) to be wound on a storage reel (24A).
