The horizontal pipe is connected with a plurality of nozzles 9, which are provided on the opposite side of the two side plates 1 and guide the nozzles 9 to the cleaning tank 13. The setting of the limit rod 22 can effectively prevent the sliding connection between the pressing plate 20 and the rectangular tube 21 from being separated, and can also effectively prevent the pressing plate 20 from moving below the vertical pipe 23.

[0036] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a groove 19 is opened at one end of the bottom shell 14, and the conveyor belt 18 is arranged on the top of the groove 19. A water-absorbing sponge 26 is fixedly connected to the side wall panel of the groove 19, and the top of the water-absorbing sponge 26 abuts against the lower belt surface of the conveyor belt 18.

A scraper 25 is fixedly connected to the end of the groove 19 away from the cleaning tank 13, and the scraper 25 abuts against the belt surface of the conveyor belt 18 and is located below the conveyor belt 18. The coordinated use of the absorbent sponge 26 and the wastewater guide plate 24 not only promotes the drying efficiency of the conveyor belt 18, but also enables the wastewater guide plate 24 to effectively discharge the wastewater dripping from the conveyor belt 18 after the belt surface of the conveyor belt 18 is wiped by the absorbent sponge 26; it also effectively ensures the water absorption efficiency of the absorbent sponge 26, and the wastewater guide plate 24 can also effectively guide the wastewater dripping from the absorbent sponge 26.

[0037] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the clamping assembly includes an electric telescopic rod 10 fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric slider 8, the end of the electric telescopic rod 10 away from the electric slider 8 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped rod 11, the electric telescopic rod 10 is fixedly connected to the middle section of the U-shaped rod 11, both ends of the U-shaped rod 11 are installed with a rotating cylinder 31, the rotating shaft of the rotating cylinder 31 is fixedly connected with a T-shaped gripper 28, and the end of the gripper 28 away from the rotating cylinder 31 is provided with an arc-shaped depression. The opening of the U-shaped rod 11 is away from the electric telescopic rod 10, and a rotating groove for the rotation of the gripper 28 is provided at the center of the end of the U-shaped rod 11, and the rotating cylinder 31 is installed in the rotating groove, and the vertical end of the gripper 28 rotates in the rotating groove, and the vertical end of the gripper 28 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft of the rotating cylinder 31.

[0038] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the tops of the two side wall panels of the flower basket 15 are fixedly connected with U-shaped brackets 16, and the middle section of the U-shaped bracket 16 is movably connected with the gripper 28. The bottom of the flower basket 15 is provided with a plurality of placement grooves 35, and the bottom of the placement grooves 35 is provided with rectangular through holes 32 for drainage. The bottom of the flower basket 15 is provided with legs 17, and the bottom of the cleaning tank 13 is provided with pads 27, which are movably abutted against the legs 17. The setting of the pads 27, on the one hand, can effectively block between the bottom of the cleaning tank 13 and the flower basket 15, and prevent the vibration layer from falling off due to the direct contact between the flower basket 15 and the bottom of the cleaning tank 13. On the other hand, the pads 27 can also effectively trigger the waterproof contact switch at the bottom of the legs 17, and effectively control the waterproof motor 30 to work.

[0039] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a plurality of wafer slots 29 for clamping wafers are arranged on both sides of the placement groove 35, and the wafer slots 29 on two adjacent placement grooves 35 are arranged in a staggered manner. Active rollers 33 and driven rollers 34 are rotatably connected to the top sides of the placement groove 35, and the active roller 33 is fixedly connected to a waterproof motor 30, which is fixedly connected to one side of the flower basket 15. A waterproof contact switch is arranged at the bottom of the leg 17, and the waterproof contact switch is electrically connected to the waterproof motor 30. The arrangement of the active roller 33 and the driven roller 34 can effectively support the bottom of the wafer on the one hand, and can also effectively promote the rotation of the wafer on the other hand, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the wafer.

[0040] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the wafer slots 29 on both sides of the top of the placement groove 35 are provided with guide grooves on the opposite sides, and multiple rollers 36 are rotatably installed in the guide grooves. The setting of the rollers 36 can effectively ensure the vertical angle of the wafer on the one hand, and can also effectively reduce the contact area between the wafer and the wafer slot 29 on the other hand.

[0041] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a placement table 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one end of the bottom shell 14 away from the conveyor belt 18, and the flower basket 15 is placed on the placement table 12. The placement table 12 is provided with a positioning groove for placing the flower basket 15, which can facilitate technicians to place wafers on the one hand, and can also effectively facilitate the positioning of the flower basket 15 on the other hand, so that the gripper 28 can accurately grab the flower basket 15.

[0042] When the present invention is in use, the wafer is placed in the wafer slot 29, and then the flower basket 15 after placement is placed on the placement table 12, and then the flower basket 15 is effectively clamped by the clamping assembly, and then the electric telescopic rod 10 is extended to make the rotating cylinder 31 drive the gripper 28 to effectively grab the U-shaped bracket 16, and after the gripper 28 grabs the U-shaped bracket 16, the electric telescopic rod 10 contracts, so that the flower basket 15 is effectively lifted, and after the flower basket 15 is lifted, it will be driven to the top of the cleaning tank 13 by the electric slider 8, and then the electric telescopic rod 10 is extended to place the flower basket 15 on the pad 27 in the cleaning tank 13, and then the rotating cylinder 31 rotates to separate the gripper 28 from the U-shaped bracket 16, and the electric telescopic rod 10 is then contracted, and after the electric telescopic rod 10 is contracted, the electric slider 8 will return to the initial position. By setting the clamping assembly and the electric slide block 8 , the flower basket 15 will pass through the multiple cleaning tanks 13 in sequence, and after the flower basket 15 leaves the cleaning tank 13 , the clamping assembly and the electric slide block 8 place the flower basket 15 on the conveyor belt 18 .

[0043] During the operation of the electric slider 8, the pressure fan 5 will pressurize the spray water tank 2 through the L-shaped tube 6, so that the pressure plate 20 moves downward, so that the pressure plate 20 squeezes the pre-placed spray water in the spray water tank 2, and then the spray water enters the horizontal tube through the vertical tube 23, and then sprays on the top of the cleaning tank 13 through the horizontal tube and the nozzle 9. In the process of the flower basket 15 moving from one cleaning tank 13 to another cleaning tank 13, the surface of the wafer can be effectively cleaned, and the cleaning effect of the cleaning tank 13 on the wafer is effectively promoted by the spraying of the spray water. The waste liquid after the spray water is sprayed can also be discharged through the sewage outlet at the bottom of the cleaning tank 13. When the flower basket 15 contacts the pad 27, after the waterproof contact switch at the bottom of the leg 17 contacts the pad 27, the pressure applied by the flower basket 15 to the pad 27 through the leg 17 will act in reverse on the leg 17, thereby squeezing the waterproof contact switch at the bottom of the leg 17. After the waterproof contact switch is squeezed, the waterproof motor 30 will work, thereby enabling the waterproof motor 30 to drive the active roller 33 to rotate effectively, thereby enabling the active roller 33 to drive the wafer to rotate on the flower basket 15, thereby promoting the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning tank 13 for the wafer and preventing the occurrence of cleaning blind spots on the wafer.

[0044] When the pressurized fan 5 pressurizes the spray water tank 2 through the pressure plate 20, the air duct 4 located above the pressure plate 20 will discharge the excess gas from the spray water tank 2, and the gas will be blown above the conveyor belt 18 through the air duct 4, so that the flower basket 15 transported to the conveyor belt 18 can be effectively dried. When the legs 17 at the bottom of the flower basket 15 are in contact with the conveyor belt 18, the waterproof motor 30 will also be turned on, so that the active roller 33 can be effectively rotated, and then the wafer can be effectively rotated on the flower basket 15, thereby increasing the contact area between the wafer and the air duct 4 and accelerating the drying efficiency of the wafer.

[0045] After the flower basket 15 is taken out from the cleaning tank 13, it will carry a small amount of cleaning liquid. The cleaning liquid will fall on the conveyor belt 18 as the flower basket 15 is placed on the conveyor belt 18. As the conveyor belt 18 rotates, the scraper 25 abuts against the conveyor belt 18 so that the scraper 25 scrapes off most of the cleaning liquid on the conveyor belt 18, effectively ensuring the drying of the conveyor belt 18. The absorbent sponge 26 located below the conveyor belt 18 will also effectively absorb the cleaning liquid remaining on the conveyor belt 18. In this process, after the absorbent sponge 26 absorbs a large amount of water on the conveyor belt 18, the waste water in the absorbent sponge 26 will drip onto the waste water guide plate 24, and then the waste water dripping from the absorbent sponge 26 will be guided to the outside of the bottom shell 14 through the waste water guide plate 24, preventing the waste water from accumulating under the conveyor belt 18, thereby resulting in the waste water being unable to be effectively and timely cleaned up, causing the wafer to be contaminated by the waste water, thereby greatly improving the safety of the wafer after cleaning.

[0046] The wastewater guide plate 24 effectively guides the wastewater absorbed by the absorbent sponge 26 from the conveyor belt 18. At the same time, the wastewater guide plate 24 is placed under the conveyor belt 18, so that after the absorbent sponge 26 effectively wipes the conveyor belt 18, the conveyor belt 18 can be effectively kept dry, preventing the drying efficiency of the wafer from being reduced due to the moisture of the conveyor belt 18, promoting the drying of the wafer while effectively ensuring the quality of the wafer, and greatly improving the cleaning efficiency of the wafer.

[0047] In the process of the active roller 33 driving the wafer to rotate, the two sides of the edge of the wafer will rotate in the wafer slot 29, and the wafer will rotate relative to the roller 36, which greatly improves the rotation efficiency of the wafer, thereby effectively ensuring the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning tank 13 for the wafer and the air duct 4 for the wafer drying efficiency, greatly improving the cleaning quality of the wafer. Secondly, through the setting of the rectangular through hole 32, on the one hand, it can effectively reduce the possibility of the flower basket 15 carrying a large amount of cleaning liquid when it is taken out of the cleaning tank 13, so that the cleaning liquid can return to the cleaning tank 13 through the rectangular through hole 32. On the other hand, it can also ensure the ventilation efficiency of the side of the wafer when the flower basket 15 is placed on the conveyor belt 18, further ensuring the drying efficiency of the wafer.

Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification.
