[0039] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] As introduced in the background technology, in order to solve the deficiencies in the existing technology, this application proposes a substrate etching device, a backlight-free liquid crystal screen based on the substrate, and an etching method.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 and Figure 10 , a substrate etching device, a backlight-free liquid crystal display based on the substrate, and an etching method, comprising an etching machine 1, a plurality of silicon wafers 2 arranged in the etching machine 1, and a carrier device 3 for holding the plurality of silicon wafers 2, a reaction tank 4 and a cleaning tank 5 are provided in the etching machine 1, and a driving device 6, a gripping device 7, and a cleaning device 8 are provided in the etching machine 1;

[0043] A transmission assembly 9 is provided between the driving device 6 and the cleaning device 8 to enable the grabbing device 7 and the cleaning device 8 to move in opposite directions;

[0044] The carrier device 3 includes a plurality of carriers 31 and a receiving member 32 . The plurality of carriers 31 are disposed in the receiving member 32 , and the silicon wafers 2 are disposed in the carriers 31 .

[0045] The grabbing device 7 includes a movable plate 71, a driving member 72 sleeved on the movable plate 71, and a plurality of connecting members 73 provided at the bottom of the movable plate 71. The connecting members 73 match the carrier 31. When the driving member 72 moves downward on the movable plate 71, it drives the plurality of connecting members 73 to move toward each other.

[0046] The cleaning device 8 includes multiple cleaning parts 81 and a loading part 82 for loading the cleaning parts 81. A movable part 83 is provided between the loading part 82 and the cleaning part 81 so that the cleaning part 81 can be driven to rotate when the loading part 82 moves. The multiple cleaning parts 81 and the multiple supporting parts 31 are staggered with each other.

[0047] Specifically, the silicon wafer 2 is placed on the carrier 31, and through the mutual matching arrangement between the carrier 31 and the connecting member 73, the carrier 31 is placed at the bottom of the connecting member 73. Through the cooperation between the driving member 72 and the connecting member 73, the driving member 72 moves downward, driving the multiple connecting members 73 to move toward each other, thereby separating the multiple carriers 31 in the receiving member 32. The setting of the driving member 72 drives the carrier device 3 to continue to move downward, and the silicon wafer 2 in the carrier 31 enters the reaction tank 4.

[0048] After the etching of the silicon wafer 2 is completed, the carrying device 3 is driven to move upward and out of the reaction tank 4 by the setting of the driving member 72, and then the driving device 6 drives the grasping device 7 and the carrying device 3 at the bottom thereof to move toward the cleaning tank 5. The setting of the transmission assembly 9 makes the cleaning device 8 move toward the reaction tank 4. The cleaning member 81 and the carrying member 31 are staggered with each other, so that during the movement of the carrying member 31 toward the cleaning tank 5, the silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31 will be located between the two cleaning members 81, and the residual chemical reaction liquid on the silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31 will be cleaned by the cleaning member 81. When the grasping device 7 and the carrying device 3 at the bottom thereof move to the top of the cleaning tank 5, the carrying device 3 is separated from the cleaning device 8, and the carrying member 31 and the silicon wafer 2 are driven by the driving member 72 to enter the cleaning tank 5 for cleaning;

[0049] By setting the transmission component 9, when the carrying device 3 moves toward the cleaning tank 5, the cleaning device 8 moves toward the carrying device 3, so that the wafer silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31 are located between the two cleaning members 81, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning the residual liquid on the wafer silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31, and solving the problem that the residual chemical etching liquid on the surface of the wafer silicon wafer 2 and its carrying container drops into the etching machine 1 during the movement from the reaction tank 4 to the cleaning tank 5, causing pollution to the etching machine 1.

[0050] Example 2:

[0051] The difference from the above embodiment 1 is that, see Figure 4-Figure 7 For the above-mentioned grabbing device 7, a top plate 10 is fixedly connected to the etching machine 1, and a guide rail groove 11 is opened on the top plate 10. A guide rail block 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 71. The guide rail block 12 is slidably arranged in the guide rail groove 11. A first piston rod 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the guide rail block 12. A first cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the top plate 10. The output end of the first cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the first piston rod 13;

[0052] The connecting member 73 includes a plurality of movable blocks 731. A rectangular frame 732 is provided at the bottom of the movable plate 71. Sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the rectangular frame 732. The plurality of movable blocks 731 are disposed within the rectangular frame 732 and are slidably connected to the rectangular frame 732 via the sliding grooves. A connecting belt 733 is fixedly connected between the plurality of movable blocks 731. A hook 734 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 731.

[0053] The driving member 72 includes a sleeve 721, which is sleeved outside the movable plate 71 and fixedly connected to the rectangular frame 732 at the bottom. Slide grooves 722 are provided on both sides of the movable plate 71. Sliders 723 are fixedly connected to the tops of both sides of the sleeve 721. The slides 723 are slidably arranged in the slide grooves 722. Rectangular grooves 724 are provided on both sides of the sleeve 721. A hinge block 725 is slidably connected in the rectangular groove 724. The tops of the movable blocks 731 on both sides of the rectangular frame 732 are hinged to hinge plates 726. The hinge plate 726 is movably hinged to the hinge block 725 at one end away from the moving block 731. The top and bottom of the hinge plate 726 are fixedly connected to springs 727. The spring 727 is disposed in the rectangular groove 724. The top of the hinge block 725 is fixedly connected to a second piston rod 728.

The top end of the second piston rod 728 passes through the guide rail block 12 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the second cylinder 720.

[0054] Specifically, after the carrying device 3 is placed at the bottom of the grasping device 7, the second cylinder 720 drives the second piston rod 728 to stretch, thereby driving the hinge blocks 725 on both sides of the sleeve 721 to move downward. Through the setting of the spring 727 at the bottom of the hinge block 725, the second piston rod 728 drives the hinge block 725 to move downward, and drives the sleeve 721 to move downward. When the slider 723 in the sleeve 721 moves downward to the bottom of the slide groove 722, the sleeve 721 no longer moves, and the carrying device 3 is located in the reaction tank 4. The second cylinder 720 continues to drive the second piston rod 728 to stretch, and through the hinge block 725 and the rectangular The sliding connection between the grooves 724 causes the hinge block 725 to move downward. The hinged connection between the two ends of the hinge plate 726 and the hinged block 725 and the movable block 731 respectively drives the movable blocks 731 on both sides of the rectangular frame 732 to perform outward and backward movement. The connection belt 733 is fixedly connected between the multiple movable blocks 731. When the movable blocks 731 on both sides of the rectangular frame 732 move to the sides, the two outermost movable blocks 731 drive the other movable blocks 731 to expand toward the periphery, thereby increasing the distance between the multiple movable blocks 731 and increasing the contact area between the silicon wafer 2 and the etching solution.

[0055] When the carrying device 3 is cleaned, the second cylinder 720 drives the second piston to retract, thereby driving the hinge blocks 725 on both sides of the sleeve 721 to move upward. Through the setting of the spring 727 at the top of the hinge block 725, the second piston rod 728 drives the hinge block 725 to move upward, driving the sleeve 721 to move upward. When the slider 723 in the sleeve 721 moves upward to the top of the slide groove 722, the sleeve 721 stops moving. At this time, the carrying device 3 is located outside the cleaning tank 5. The second cylinder 720 continues to drive the second piston to retract, and through the sliding connection between the hinge block 725 and the rectangular groove 724, the hinge block 725 moves upward. Through the movable hinge connection between the two ends of the hinge plate 726 and the hinge block 725 and the moving block 731, the moving blocks 731 on both sides of the rectangular frame 732 are driven to move inward and toward each other, so that multiple moving blocks 731 are fit together, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly between the carrying device 3 and the grasping device 7.

The hook 734 is sleeved on the fixing block 314 through the hole groove 315.

[0058] The storage member 32 includes a square frame 321, with square grooves on both sides of the square frame 321. The tops of both sides of the rectangular frame 311 are fixedly connected with square blocks 322, and the square blocks 322 are slidably arranged in the square grooves.

[0059] Specifically, the rectangular frame 311 and the mounting groove 312 are provided to facilitate installation and disassembly of the silicon wafer 2. The partition 313 is provided to prevent the silicon wafer 2 from falling.

[0068] The silicon wafer 2 is placed on the carrier 31, and through the mutual matching arrangement between the carrier 31 and the connecting member 73, the carrier 31 is placed at the bottom of the connecting member 73. Through the cooperation between the driving member 72 and the connecting member 73, the driving member 72 moves downward, driving the multiple connecting members 73 to move toward each other, thereby separating the multiple carriers 31 in the receiving member 32. The setting of the driving member 72 drives the carrier device 3 to continue to move downward, and the silicon wafer 2 in the carrier 31 enters the reaction tank 4;

[0069] After the etching of the silicon wafer 2 is completed, the driving member 72 is used to drive the carrying device 3 to move upward and separate from the reaction tank 4. Then the driving device 6 drives the grasping device 7 and the carrying device 3 at the bottom thereof to move toward the cleaning tank 5. The transmission component 9 is used to make the cleaning device 8 move toward the reaction tank 4. The cleaning member 81 and the carrying member 31 are staggered with each other, so that during the movement of the carrying member 31 toward the cleaning tank 5, the silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31 will be located between the two cleaning members 81, and the residual chemical reaction liquid on the silicon wafer 2 and the carrying member 31 will be cleaned by the cleaning member 81. When the grasping device 7 and the carrying device 3 at the bottom thereof move to the top of the cleaning tank 5, the carrying device 3 is separated from the cleaning device 8, and the driving member 72 drives the carrying member 31 and the silicon wafer 2 into the cleaning tank 5 for cleaning.
