US 2014/0368999 A1 · Temperature Control Module For A Socket

Abstract

A temperature control module for a socket is provided with of an upper docking plate and a lower docking plate. The upper docking plate has a recess for accommodating a socket and two temperature-controlling fluid passages. One end of the passages communicates with the recess, and the other end thereof is connected to a temperature-controlling fluid source. The lower docking plate is disposed under the upper docking plate and covers the recess. A fluid chamber is formed of the recess of the docking plate, the lower docking plate and the socket. The temperature-controlling fluid source outputs a temperature-controlling fluid to the fluid chamber via the temperature-controlling fluid passages for maintaining the socket at a specific temperature.
