Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to Figures 1-9 and through specific embodiments.

[0025] This invention provides a high-uniformity OPA chip end-face polishing machine. A polishing motor 103 is fixedly mounted on an upper cover plate 101. A mounting base 107 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the polishing motor 103. An adjusting micro-electric cylinder mounting plate 109 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 107. Several equidistantly distributed adjusting micro-electric cylinders 114 are fixedly mounted on the adjusting micro-electric cylinder mounting plate 109. A ball joint 115 is movably mounted at the end of the telescopic rod of each adjusting micro-electric cylinder 114. A polishing disc 116 is arranged below the adjusting micro-electric cylinder mounting plate 109. All the ball joints of the polishing disc 116... Pressure sensors 118 are fixedly installed between 115 to provide feedback on the force applied to the polishing disc 116 by the micro electric cylinder 114. A detection disc 106 is located below the polishing disc 116. A contact conductive rod bracket 110 is fixedly installed on the side of the detection disc 106. A contact conductive rod 112 is slidably installed on the contact conductive rod bracket 110. A tension spring 113 is fixedly installed between one end of the contact conductive rod 112 and the contact conductive rod bracket 110. A capacitance measuring head 111, corresponding to the number and position of the micro electric cylinders 114, is also fixedly installed on the detection disc 106. The tension spring 113 surrounds the contact conductive rod 112, which contacts and engages with the polishing disc 116 and is electrically connected to it. A brush 108 is fixedly installed on the upper cover plate 101, and the brush 108 is electrically slidably engaged with the mounting base 107 to supply power to the micro electric cylinders 114. The detection plate 106 is fixedly mounted on the detection plate bracket 105. The detection plate bracket 105 is rotatably mounted on the output shaft of the detection swing motor 104. The detection swing motor 104 is fixedly mounted on the outer casing 102. The upper cover plate 101 is also fixedly mounted on the outer casing 102.

[0026] A feeding assembly is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the housing 102. The feeding assembly includes a support platform 201, which is fixedly fitted to the bottom end of the housing 102. A clamping platform 206 is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the housing 102. Three feed screws 205 are fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the clamping platform 206. Three feed nut gears 204 that are threadedly engaged with the feed screws 205 are also rotatably mounted on the support platform 201. Three feed motors 202 are fixedly mounted on the surface of the support platform 201. Each of the three feed motors 202 has a feed drive gear 203 fixedly mounted on its output shaft that meshes with the corresponding feed nut gear 204, for controlling the axial movement of the feed screws 205. A compression piston cylinder 212 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the clamping table 206. The interior of the compression piston cylinder 212 communicates with the interior of the clamping table 206. A vent hole 2121 is provided at the bottom end of the compression piston cylinder 212. A compression gear support housing 215 is also fixedly installed at the bottom end of the compression piston cylinder 212. Two meshing compression nut gears 214 and a compression drive gear 216 are rotatably mounted inside the compression gear support housing 215. A compression drive motor 217 for driving the compression drive gear 216 is also fixedly installed on the compression gear support housing 215. A compression drive screw 218 is slidably fitted at the center of the compression gear support housing 215 using a spline configuration. The compression drive screw 218 is threadedly fitted with the compression nut gear 214. A piston 213 is fixedly installed at the top end of the compression drive screw 218. The piston 213 is slidably sealed to the inner wall of the compression piston cylinder 212. Four hydraulic telescopic rods 207 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the clamping platform 206. The interior of the telescopic cylinders of the four hydraulic telescopic rods 207 communicates with the interior of the clamping platform 206. A fixing plate 208 is fixedly installed at the end of each of the four hydraulic telescopic rods 207. A gasket 209 is overlapped at the center of the upper surface of the clamping platform 206. Two iron pillars 210 are embedded in the gasket 209. Six permanent magnets 211 are embedded in the upper surface of the clamping platform 206, which magnetically engage with the iron pillars 210, for positioning the gasket 209.

[0027] The working principle of the high-uniformity OPA chip end-face polishing machine disclosed in this invention is as follows: Polishing sandpaper 117 is pasted on the lower surface of polishing disc 116, ensuring that there are no air bubbles between them. Then, the chip to be polished is placed on the pad 209. Different sized pads 209 are selected according to the size of the chip to achieve better support. The spacing of the iron pillars 210 of different sizes is also different and needs to correspond to the position of the permanent magnet 211. The extrusion drive motor 217 drives the extrusion drive gear 216 to rotate, which in turn drives the extrusion nut gear 214 to rotate. The extrusion nut gear 214 then drives the extrusion drive screw 218 to move along its axis. The extrusion drive screw 218 drives the piston 213 to slide inside the extrusion piston cylinder 212. At this time, the piston 213 moves upward, which increases the internal pressure of the clamping table 206. This, in turn, increases the internal pressure of the hydraulic telescopic rod 207. The telescopic rod 207 then drives the fixing plate 208 to move toward the chip, fixing the chip in place. (During the movement toward the chip, the chip needs to be pressed down by hand until all four fixing plates 208 are in contact with the four sides of the chip. This step ensures that the four sides of the chip are subjected to the same force, preventing stress shift.) A shim 209 of appropriate thickness is selected according to the chip thickness.

[0028] Before polishing, the polishing disc 116 needs to be calibrated for flatness to ensure processing accuracy. The detection swing motor 104 is controlled, and its output shaft drives the detection disc support 105, swinging the detection disc 106 directly below the polishing disc 116. At this time, the capacitance measuring head 111 also moves directly below the polishing disc 116. The capacitance measuring head 111 is intermittently energized, and different capacitance measuring heads 111 and the polishing disc 116 form capacitances. By measuring the capacitance values ​​between different capacitance measuring heads 111 and the polishing disc 116, the distance between the corresponding capacitance measuring head 111 and the polishing disc 116 can be determined. Ensuring that all capacitance measuring heads 111 and the polishing disc 116 have the same distance guarantees the flatness of the polishing disc 116 (the capacitance measuring head 111 serves as a flat reference; the extension and retraction of the micro electric cylinder 114's telescopic rod is adjusted by adjusting the corresponding position). Specifically, this can be determined using C=εA / d (where C represents capacitance, ε represents dielectric constant, A represents the area between the two metal pieces, and d represents the distance between the two metal pieces). By controlling three feed motors 202, the output shafts of the feed motors 202 drive the feed drive gear 203 to rotate. The rotation of the feed drive gear 203 drives the feed nut gear 204, which in turn drives the corresponding feed screw 205 to move axially. Then, the feed screw 205 drives the clamping table 206 to move up and down, allowing the chip on the clamping table 206 to contact the rotating polishing sandpaper 117 (first, the polishing motor 103 is started to make the polishing disc 116 rotate).

[0029] During the polishing process, pressure sensor 118 monitors the pressure at the corresponding position in real time and transmits the pressure signal to the control system. The control system receives the signal from pressure sensor 118 and compares and judges it according to the preset pressure range. If the current pressure exceeds the preset range, the control system sends a command to the adjusting micro-cylinder 114 for adjustment. The adjusting micro-cylinder 114 adjusts the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod according to the command of the control system. By adjusting the movement of the telescopic rod of the adjusting micro-cylinder 114, the contact force between the polishing sandpaper 117 and the chip can be changed, thereby adjusting the polishing pressure and making the entire chip surface polished more uniformly. The ball joint 115 and the polishing disc 116 are connected in the manner shown in Figure 9, with the pressure sensor 118 positioned in the middle.
