Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the process of processing the crystal rod into a chip, it is necessary to first use a steel wire to cut along the radial direction of the crystal rod until the steel wire cuts into the groove position of the graphite bar on the outside of the crystal rod. At this time, since the chip is connected to the graphite bar, in order to remove the chip from the graphite bar, the graphite bar needs to be placed flat on the workbench. Then the staff needs to protect the chip with one hand to prevent the chip cut from the graphite bar from falling over, and place the cut chip on the sponge of the chip rack in turn to prevent the chip from falling over and being damaged. Finally, the chip rack is placed in the kerosene cleaning tank to clean the mud on the chip.

[0074] The clamping mechanism 3 includes a power mechanism 31, a first clamping plate 32, a second clamping plate 33, a first protective plate 34, a second protective plate 35, and a telescopic mechanism 4;

[0077] The power mechanism 31 is used to drive the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 to radially clamp the wafer;

[0078] The first protective plate 34 is arranged at the first end of the first clamping plate 32 and is used to fit the wafer at the first end of the graphite bar;

[0079] The second protective plate 35 is movably arranged at the second end of the first clamping plate 32 and is used to fit the wafer at the second end of the graphite bar;

[0080] A transverse groove 322 for the second protective plate 35 to pass through is formed along the transverse direction of the first clamping plate 32;

[0081] The telescopic mechanism 4 is arranged outside the first clamping plate 32, and the telescopic mechanism 4 is used to drive the second protective plate 35 to move in the transverse groove 322.

Then, after the wafer and the graphite are cut at the groove of the graphite bar by the wire saw mechanism 2, when the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are separated, the first protective plate 34 and the second protective plate 35 can prevent the wafer between them from falling down.

[0083] And a transverse groove 322 for the second protective plate 35 to pass through is formed along the transverse direction of the first clamping plate 32; the telescopic mechanism 4 is arranged outside the first clamping plate 32, and the telescopic mechanism 4 is used to drive the second protective plate 35 to move in the transverse groove 322. Then, the position of the second protective plate 35 can be adjusted according to the lengths of multiple wafers on the graphite bar, and when the wafer and the graphite are cut by the wire saw mechanism 2 and the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are separated, the first protective plate 34 and the second protective plate 35 can effectively prevent the wafer between them from falling down.

[0084] It should be noted that when the first protective plate 34 is specifically arranged, the first protective plate 34 can be fixed to the telescopic mechanism 4.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present invention, the clamping mechanism 3 and the wire saw mechanism 2 are both arranged on the workbench 1; the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are installed on the power mechanism 31; furthermore, the power mechanism 31 can drive the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 to clamp the wafer radially; the first protective plate 34 is arranged at the first end of the first clamping plate 32 and is attached to the wafer at the first end of the graphite strip; the second protective plate 35 is movably arranged at the second end of the first clamping plate 32 and is attached to the wafer at the second end of the graphite strip; and a transverse groove 322 for the second protective plate 35 to pass through is opened along the transverse direction of the first clamping plate 32; the telescopic mechanism 4 is arranged outside the first clamping plate 32, and furthermore, the telescopic mechanism 4 drives the second protective plate 35 to move in the transverse groove 322. Through the wafer cutting system disclosed above, the power mechanism 31 drives the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 to be able to clamp the wafer radially. Furthermore, after the wire saw mechanism 2 separates multiple wafers from the graphite strip, the wafers will not fall down. By arranging the first protective plate 34 and the second protective plate 35, and making the first protective plate 34 and the second protective plate 35 contact the wafers at both ends of the graphite strip respectively, furthermore, when the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are separated, the first protective plate 34 and the second protective plate 35 can effectively prevent the wafers from falling down. And when it is necessary to remove the wafers, the staff can take out multiple wafers to the wafer rack at one time. Compared with the existing method of protecting the wafers on the graphite strip by hand during cutting and putting the wafers into the wafer rack one by one, the embodiment of the present invention can effectively save manpower.

[0086] Specifically, the wire saw mechanism 2 includes: a first moving mechanism 21, a first connecting plate 22, a first column 23, a second column 24, a first motor 25, a first roller 26, a second roller 27, and a diamond wire 28;

[0087] The first moving mechanism 21 is movably arranged outside the second clamping plate 33;

[0088] The first column 23 is rotatably arranged on the first moving mechanism 21;

[0089] The first motor 25 is in transmission connection with the first column 23;

[0090] The first roller 26 is arranged on the first column 23;

[0091] The first end of the first connecting plate 22 is connected to the first moving mechanism 21;

[0092] The second column 24 is vertically arranged at the second end of the first connecting plate 22;

[0093] The second roller 27 is rotatably arranged on the second column 24;

[0094] The second roller 27 and the first roller 26 are arranged at the same height above the workbench 1;

[0095] The ends of the diamond wire 28 are connected to form a ring, and the diamond wire 28 is wound around the first roller 26 and the second roller 27 .

[0096] It should be noted that the first moving mechanism 21 is movably arranged on the outside of the second clamping plate 33, and the first column 23 is rotatably arranged on the first moving mechanism 21, and the first motor 25 is transmission-connected to the first column 23; the first roller 26 is arranged on the first column 23; the first end of the first connecting plate 22 is connected to the first moving mechanism 21; the second column 24 is vertically arranged at the second end of the first connecting plate 22; the second roller 27 is rotatably arranged on the second column 24; the second roller 27 and the first roller 26 are arranged at the same height above the workbench 1; the ends of the diamond wire 28 are connected to form a ring, and the diamond wire 28 is wound around the first column 23. A roller 26 and a second roller 27, and then under the action of the first motor 25, can drive the first column 23 to rotate, and then drive the first roller 26 installed on the first column 23 to rotate. However, since the diamond wire 28 is a ring structure with the ends connected, and the diamond wire 28 is wound around the first roller 26 and the second roller 27, and the second roller 27 is rotatably arranged on the second column 24, therefore, when the first roller 26 rotates, it can drive the diamond wire 28 to rotate, and then when the first moving mechanism 21 drives the diamond wire 28 to move toward the graphite strip, the diamond wire 28 can cut at the groove of the graphite strip to separate the graphite strip from the wafer.

[0097] It should also be noted that arranging the second roller 27 and the first roller 26 at the same height above the workbench 1 can enable the wire saw to cut the graphite strip groove horizontally and ensure that the diamond wire 28 can be always wound around the first roller 26 and the second roller 27 during the rotation process.

[0098] Furthermore, the first moving mechanism 21 includes: a second motor 211, a first screw 212, a first slider 213 and a first guide rail 214;

[0099] The first guide rail 214 is disposed on the workbench 1 , and the first guide rail 214 is parallel to the second clamping plate 33 ;

[0100] The second motor 211 is disposed at one end of the first guide rail 214;

[0101] The first screw 212 is transmission-connected to the second motor 211;

[0102] The first sliding block 213 is slidably disposed on the first guide rail 214 , and the first sliding block 213 defines a first screw hole that cooperates with the first screw rod 212 .

Thus, under the action of the second motor 211, the first screw rod 212 can be driven to rotate, and the first slider 213 matching with the first screw rod 212 can be moved along the first guide rail 214.

[0104] Specifically, the first moving mechanism 21 is arranged on the upper end surface of the workbench 1;

[0105] The first connecting plate 22 includes: a cross plate 221 and a vertical plate 222;

[0106] A first moving groove 12 for the second column 24 to pass through and a second moving groove 13 for the vertical plate 222 to pass through are formed along the transverse direction of the workbench 1;

[0107] The first moving groove 12 is located outside the first clamping plate 32, and the second moving groove 13 is located outside the second clamping plate 33;

[0108] The upper end of the vertical plate 222 is fixed to the slider;

[0109] The lower end of the vertical plate 222 is connected to the first end of the cross plate 221;

[0110] The second column 24 is vertically fixed to the second end of the cross plate 221.

[0111] It should be noted that the cross plate 221 can be arranged below the workbench 1 or above the workbench 1. When the cross plate 221 is arranged above the workbench 1, the first moving groove 12 for the second column 24 to pass through and the second moving groove 13 for the vertical plate 222 to pass through do not need to be formed on the workbench 1. In the embodiment of the present invention, it is preferably to arrange the cross plate 221 below the workbench 1, and form the first moving groove 12 for the second column 24 to pass through and the second moving groove 13 for the vertical plate 222 to pass through on the workbench 1.

[0112] Furthermore, the wafer dicing system further includes: a cleaning pool 5 for cleaning the wafer and a second moving mechanism 6 for moving the clamping mechanism 3 into the cleaning pool 5;

[0113] Both the cleaning pool 5 and the second moving mechanism 6 are arranged on the workbench 1.

[0115] Specifically, the second moving mechanism 6 includes: a third motor 61, a second screw 62, a second slider 63, a lifting mechanism 64, a connecting arm 65, and a second guide rail 66;

Since the lifting mechanism 64 is arranged on the second slider 63, and the lifting mechanism 64 can drive the connecting arm 65 to move up and down, and the power mechanism 31 is also arranged on the connecting arm 65, when the second slider 63 moves, it can drive the power mechanism 31 to move along the second guide rail 66 until the entire clamping mechanism 3 is located above the cleaning tank 5. The lifting mechanism 64 can be used to drive the clamping mechanism 3 to move downward into the cleaning tank 5 for cleaning. When the chip is cleaned, the lifting mechanism 64 can be used to drive the clamping mechanism 3 to move upward to the top of the platform, and then the third motor 61 can be used to drive the second screw 62 to reverse, so that the second slider 63 drives the clamping mechanism 3 to move to the chip cutting position through the connecting arm 65.

[0135] It should be noted that since kerosene is usually used for wafer cleaning and kerosene has a pungent smell, therefore, by providing an openable and closable top cover above the cleaning and disposing the spray head on the top cover, when cleaning the wafer, the top cover can be closed, and then kerosene is sprayed on the wafer through the spray head to avoid a large amount of kerosene smell overflowing and affecting the environment.

[0136] Specifically, the telescopic mechanism 4 is a rodless cylinder, and the second guard plate 35 is fixed to the piston of the rodless cylinder.

[0137] It should be noted that the telescopic mechanism 4 can be a rodless cylinder or an ordinary cylinder, and those skilled in the art can select according to requirements. However, in the embodiments of the present invention, it is preferred that the telescopic mechanism 4 is a rodless cylinder.

[0138] Furthermore, a plurality of first spiny ridges 321 are provided on the inner side of the first clamping plate 32, and / or a plurality of second spiny ridges 331 are provided on the inner side of the second clamping plate 33.

[0139] It should be noted that by providing a plurality of first spiny ridges 321 on the inner side of the first clamping plate 32 and a plurality of second spiny ridges 331 on the inner side of the second clamping plate 33, it is possible to avoid direct contact between the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 and the wafer, and the wafer can be firmly clamped, reducing the possibility of wafer damage and improving the yield of the wafer.

[0140] Preferably, the first spiny ridge 321 and / or the second spiny ridge 331 are made of polyurethane material.

[0141] It should be noted that polyurethane, whose full name is polyisocyanate, is a polymer compound with good wear resistance and certain resilience and mechanical properties. Therefore, making the first spiny ridge 321 of polyurethane material can effectively prevent the wafer from being damaged by hard contact with the first clamping plate, and making the second spiny ridge 331 of polyurethane material can effectively prevent the wafer from being damaged by hard contact with the second clamping plate.

[0142] It should also be noted that the first spiny ridge 321 can be made of polyurethane material or other wear-resistant materials, and those skilled in the art can replace it according to requirements.

[0143] The second spinous process strip 331 can be made of polyurethane material or other wear-resistant materials, and those skilled in the art can replace it according to requirements.

[0144] Furthermore, the first guard plate 34 and the second guard plate 35 are arranged in parallel.

[0145] It should be noted that by arranging the first guard plate 34 and the second guard plate 35 in parallel, after the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are separated, the wafer can lean against the first guard plate 34 or the second guard plate 35, thus avoiding the wafer from toppling.

[0146] Specifically, both the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 are of C-shaped structure;

[0147] The opening of the first clamping plate 32 faces the opening of the second clamping plate 33.

[0148] It should be noted that by setting the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 into a C-shaped structure and making the opening of the first clamping plate 32 face the opening of the second clamping plate 33, when the power mechanism 31 drives the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 to clamp the wafer radially, the contact area between the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33 and the wafer can be increased when they contact the wafer on the inner sides of the first clamping plate 32 and the second clamping plate 33, so that the wafer is not easily damaged when being clamped.

[0149] Preferably, the first guard plate 34 and / or the second guard plate 35 is made of polyurethane.

[0150] It should be noted that the first guard plate 34 can be made of polyurethane or other materials, and those skilled in the art can choose according to requirements.

[0151] The second guard plate 35 can be made of polyurethane or other materials, and those skilled in the art can choose according to requirements.
