Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wafer processing devices, and in particular to an automatic wafer transmission device with a multi-axis linkage manipulator. Background Art
[0002] A wafer is a silicon wafer used in the production of silicon semiconductor integrated circuits. The starting material is silicon, and because of its round shape, it's called a wafer. Silica ore is refined in an electric arc furnace, chlorinated with hydrochloric acid, and distilled to produce high-purity polycrystalline silicon, with a purity of up to 99.9999999999%. Wafer fabrication plants then melt this polycrystalline silicon, add a small silicon seed crystal to the solution, and slowly pull it out to form a cylindrical single-crystal silicon ingot. Because the silicon ingot gradually grows from a small grain of molten silicon, this process is called "crystal growth." The silicon ingot is then ground, polished, and sliced to become the basic raw material for integrated circuit factories—silicon wafers, or "wafers." Simply put, single-crystal silicon wafers are drawn and refined from ordinary silica sand. A series of steps, including dissolution, purification, and distillation, produce single-crystal silicon ingots. These ingots are then polished and sliced to become wafers. The wafer undergoes multiple mask processing, each of which includes photosensitive agent application, exposure, development, etching, infiltration or cooking, etc., to produce IC wafers with multiple layers of circuits and components. It is then handed over to the back-end testing, cutting and packaging factories to make physical integrated circuit products.
[0003] During the wafer production process, wafers are highly susceptible to environmental contamination, ranging from tiny particles tens of nanometers to hundreds of microns in size. These particles can accumulate on the wafer surface, substandard air purity, and chemical reagents used during processing. These particles can block light during photolithography, causing defects in the integrated circuit structure. Contaminants can also adhere to the wafer surface, resulting in incomplete patterns and directly impacting the chip's electrical characteristics. Therefore, SMIF (Standard Mechanical Interface) isolation technology is often used to ensure cleanliness during automated wafer loading and unloading, while maintaining relatively low environmental requirements.
[0004] For example, Chinese invention patent publication number CN101459100B discloses a compact wafer automatic transmission device, which includes a frame, a loading platform, a bellows body and an arm mechanism. The lifting and extension motors of the arm mechanism are not on the same plane. The lower arm is connected to the grasping mechanism through a translation mechanism and a flipping mechanism, and the gear connecting rod transmission mechanism is used to drive the grasping mechanism to rotate around the axis. The grasping motor of the grasping mechanism drives the clamping claw to move back and forth, and the positioning mechanism on the grasping mechanism is provided with an adjustable positioning block.
[0005] For example, Chinese invention patent publication number CN101459101B discloses a flip-type automatic wafer transmission device, which includes a frame, a loading platform, a bellows body and an arm mechanism. The lower arm of the arm mechanism is connected to the grasping mechanism through a flip mechanism. The fixed plate of the grasping mechanism is hinged on the flip base through a flip axis. The grasping motor of the grasping mechanism drives the grasping connecting rod through a turbine worm gear to drive the clamping claw to move back and forth along the grasping slide rail. The positioning mechanism on the grasping mechanism is provided with an adjustable positioning block.
[0006] For example, Chinese invention patent publication number CN101465308B discloses a rotary wafer automatic transmission device, which includes a frame, a loading platform, a bellows body and an arm mechanism. The gripping mechanism of the arm mechanism rotates around the axis using a transmission mechanism composed of large and small pulleys assembled in the lower arm fixed seat. The gripping motor arranged in the gripping mechanism drives the gripping connecting rod through a worm gear to drive the clamping claw to move back and forth along the gripping slide rail. The positioning mechanism on the gripping mechanism is provided with an adjustable positioning block.
[0007] For example, Chinese invention patent publication number CN101465309 discloses a translation and flipping type automatic wafer transmission device, which includes a frame, a loading platform, a bellows body and an arm mechanism. The lower arm of the arm mechanism is connected to the grasping mechanism through an assembled translation mechanism and a flipping mechanism, and the grasping mechanism is driven to rotate around the axis by an assembled gear connecting rod transmission mechanism. The grasping motor of the grasping mechanism drives the clamping claw to move back and forth, and the positioning mechanism on the grasping mechanism is provided with an adjustable positioning block.
[0008] However, in actual use, it was found that the technical solutions in the above-mentioned comparative documents all had defects. For example, the technical solution in comparative document one can only complete the automatic horizontal or vertical transmission of wafers within a limited travel space, and realize the left and right translation and flipping of the wafer box; for example, the technical solution in comparative document three can only realize the arbitrary rotation and 180-degree reverse placement of the wafer box while completing the automatic transmission of the wafer.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the robot's movement range is small, resulting in a single loading device being incompatible with different processing models. For each processing model, different styles of customized loading equipment need to be configured, which leads to a sharp increase in corporate costs.

[0048] Working principle:
[0049] First, place the wafer box on the workbench 54, and the pre-positioning groove on the wafer box matches the workbench 54. After matching, the sensor senses that there is a product on the workbench 54. At this time, the bellows body 51 rises, and the gear shift block 533 on the bellows body 51 closes and is stuck in the reserved groove on the upper cover of the wafer box. When the bellows body 51 rises, the upper cover of the wafer box is also driven to rise, and the wafer box is automatically opened. At the same time, the clean air in the bellows body 51 comes into contact with the wafer. The air is relatively still in the bellows body 51, and it is not easy to convect and cause small external particles to affect the cleanliness of the wafer. At the same time, the FFU (fan filter unit) 52 under the bellows body 51 continues to work to keep the inside of the bellows body 51 clean.
[0050] After the bellows body 51 rises, the manipulator mechanism 4 begins to move. At this point, the wafer has been unpacked and can be taken out by the manipulator mechanism 4. The manipulator mechanism 4 is driven by the manipulator lifting motor 211 through the manipulator transmission belt 212 to drive the manipulator lifting screw 213 to rotate, thereby driving the first manipulator 41 to rise and fall. The steering motor 222 is decelerated through the reduction gearbox 223 and drives the first manipulator to rotate axially, with a rotation range of positive 180 degrees to negative 180 degrees. The first manipulator 41 is equipped with a manipulator transmission motor 451, a manipulator worm 452, and a manipulator worm wheel 453. The manipulator transmission motor 451 drives the manipulator worm 452 and manipulator worm wheel 453 to control the rotation of the second manipulator, with a rotation range of positive 180 degrees to negative 180 degrees. Similarly, subsequent manipulators are driven to rotate by the manipulator transmission motor 451 on the previous manipulator in conjunction with the manipulator worm 452 and manipulator worm wheel 453 to achieve various angles of movement.
[0051] The fourth manipulator 44 is equipped with a clamping mechanism, which drives the clamping worm 462 and the clamping worm wheel 463 to rotate through the clamping motor 461, and then controls the opening and closing of the clamping claw 465 through the clamping link 464 to grab the wafer.
[0052] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included therein. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
