Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of ultrasonic welding equipment, in particular to a welding head assembly of an ultrasonic aluminum wire pressure welding machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production process of semiconductor devices, an ultrasonic pressure welding machine is generally used to weld a metal wire to a chip. Ultrasonic waves from an ultrasonic generator are transmitted to a cleaver through a transducer to generate high-frequency vibration. When the cleaver contacts a lead wire and a workpiece to be welded, under the action of pressure and vibration, the surfaces of the metals to be welded are rubbed against each other, the oxide film is destroyed, and plastic deformation occurs, so that the two pure metal surfaces are in close contact, reaching the atomic distance bonding, and finally forming a firm mechanical connection.

[0003] The welding head of the existing ultrasonic aluminum wire pressure welding machine generally includes a cleaver, a transducer, and a wire cutting mechanism. The transducer is connected to the cleaver to provide vibration for the cleaver during welding. The pressure of the cleaver during welding is provided by a pressure mechanism. At the end of each welding, the aluminum wire is cut off by the wire cutting mechanism. However, during the cutting process of the aluminum wire, the aluminum wire will be subjected to a pulling force, which can easily cause the position of the welding wire to deviate. When the position of the welding wire deviates, the operation of the equipment needs to be stopped for adjustment, which seriously affects the production yield. SUMMARY

[0004] The main purpose of the present application is to provide a welding head assembly of an ultrasonic aluminum wire pressure welding machine with high production yield.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows: a welding head assembly of an ultrasonic aluminum wire pressure welding machine, comprising a mounting bracket, a cleaver and a transducer arranged on the mounting bracket, the transducer being connected to the cleaver, further comprising a clamping and cutting assembly, a retreat bracket and a retreat driving assembly connected in sequence, the clamping and cutting assembly being used for clamping and cutting the welding wire and clamping the clamped welding wire, the retreat bracket being slidably connected to the mounting bracket, and the retreat driving assembly being used for driving the retreat bracket to slide.

[0006] The welding head assembly of the ultrasonic aluminum wire pressure welding machine provided by the present application has the characteristics of high production yield. The clamping and cutting assembly is arranged to clamp and cut the welding wire and clamp the clamped welding wire, reducing the risk of the clamped welding wire being subjected to a pulling force. The retreat driving assembly is arranged to drive the retreat bracket to slide, so that the clamping and cutting assembly can retreat after clamping the clamped welding wire, reducing the risk of the clamped welding wire adhering to the welded product and improving the production yield.
