[0028] When performing wafer inspection, the tester needs to be placed above the probe station and docked with the probe station. As the size of wafer chips becomes smaller and smaller and the functional circuits become more and more complex, the size and weight of the tester continue to increase. How to effectively flip the heavier tester over the probe station has become a technical problem that needs to be solved.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides a flipping device 100 to solve the technical problem of how to effectively flip a heavy test machine to the top of a probe station.

[0030] The flipping device 100 is used to flip the test machine 200 onto the probe station 300, and the flipping device 100 includes a frame mechanism 10, a rotating mechanism 20 and a connecting mechanism 30. The frame mechanism 10 includes a first support frame 11, a second support frame 12 and a connecting frame 13 respectively connecting the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12, wherein the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 are arranged at intervals along the length direction L, and the first support frame 11 is a cubic frame. The rotating mechanism 20 is arranged along the length direction L, and one end of the rotating mechanism 20 is arranged on the first support frame 11, and the other end is arranged on the second support frame 12. The connecting mechanism 30 includes a first connecting component 31 and a second connecting component 32 arranged at intervals, wherein the first connecting component 31 respectively connects the rotating mechanism 20 and the test machine 200, and the second connecting component 32 respectively connects the rotating mechanism 20 and the test machine 200.

[0031] Among them, the rotating mechanism 20 can rotate relative to the frame mechanism 10 and drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the frame mechanism 10. When the testing machine 200 is arranged on the probe station 300, the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 of the connecting mechanism 30 extend along the height direction H.

[0032] The frame mechanism 10 includes the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12, and the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 are respectively used to support the two ends of the rotating mechanism 20. The first support frame 11 is a cubic frame, which can improve the overall structural stability of the first support frame 11. One end of the rotating mechanism 20 is arranged on the first support frame 11, which can prevent the rotating mechanism 20 on the first support frame 11 from shaking or other unstable phenomena when the rotating mechanism 20 drives the connecting mechanism 30 and the test machine 200 to flip, so as to improve the stability of the flipping device 100 flipping the test machine 200. The other end of the rotating mechanism 20 is arranged on the second support frame 12, which can prevent the rotating mechanism 20 on the second support frame 12 from shaking or other unstable phenomena when the rotating mechanism 20 drives the connecting mechanism 30 and the test machine 200 to flip, so as to improve the stability of the flipping device 100 flipping the test machine 200. Furthermore, the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 are fixedly connected via the connecting frame 13 , so that the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 form an integrated structure via the connecting frame 13 , thereby improving the stability of the frame mechanism 10 .

[0033] Both ends of the rotating mechanism 20 are respectively arranged on the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 , and the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 have high stability, which facilitates the rotating mechanism 20 to flip the heavier test machine 200 and flip it onto the probe station 300 .

[0034] The connecting mechanism 30 includes the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 which are spaced apart from each other. The first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 are used to connect the rotating mechanism 20 and the testing machine 200 respectively. The first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the rotating mechanism 20 and the testing machine 200 to improve the connection stability between the rotating mechanism 20 and the testing machine 200.

[0035] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 30 includes a first position and a second position. When the connecting mechanism 30 is in the first position, the test machine 200 and the probe station 300 are arranged along the width direction W.

When the connecting mechanism 30 is in the second position, the test machine 200 is arranged on the probe station 300, and the test machine 200 and the probe station 300 are arranged along the height direction H. At this time, the test machine 200 can be docked with the probe station 300, and the flip device 100 is in a testing state.

[0036] When the test machine 200 is arranged on the probe station 300, in other words, when the connecting mechanism 30 is in the second position, the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 of the connecting mechanism 30 extend along the height direction H, and the test machine 200 is fixed to one end of the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 away from the rotating mechanism 20. The first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 of the connecting mechanism 30 extend along the height direction H, which can reduce the distance between the test machine 200 and the rotating mechanism 20 along the width direction W, thereby reducing the torque applied by the test machine 200 to the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32, and can avoid problems such as the connection mechanism 30 breaking due to a large torque, which is beneficial to the test machine 200 with an increased load-bearing weight of the connection mechanism 30.

[0037] In the flipping device 100 provided in the present application, the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 are respectively used to support the two ends of the rotating mechanism 20, and the first support frame 11 is a cubic frame, which can improve the overall structural stability of the first support frame 11, and the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 of the frame mechanism 10 are fixedly connected by the connecting frame 13, so that the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 form an integrated structure through the connecting frame 13, which can improve the stability of the frame mechanism 10, and the two ends of the rotating mechanism 20 are respectively arranged on the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12, and the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 have high stability, which is convenient for the rotating mechanism 20 to flip the heavier test machine 200 and flip it onto the probe station 300. When the test machine 200 is arranged on the probe station 300, the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32 of the connecting mechanism 30 extend along the height direction H, which can reduce the distance between the test machine 200 and the rotating mechanism 20 along the width direction W, thereby reducing the torque applied by the test machine 200 to the first connecting component 31 and the second connecting component 32, and can avoid problems such as the connection mechanism 30 breaking due to a large torque, which is beneficial to the test machine 200 with an increased load-bearing weight of the connection mechanism 30.

In other embodiments, the user can also adjust the height of the first limit block 151 and the second limit block 152, or adjust the size of the first limit pin 235, and then adjust the rotation angle of the rotating shaft assembly 23. This application does not limit this.

[0058] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 In one embodiment, the flipping device 100 further includes a sensor component 40 and a controller component. The sensor component 40 is disposed on the second mounting plate 15. The controller component is electrically connected to the sensor component 40. An induction member 234 is disposed at one end of the shaft 232 away from the rotating motor 21. The induction member 234 is used to rotate with the shaft 232. The induction member 234 and the sensor component 40 cooperate to output a position signal of the shaft 232 to the controller component. The controller component can be used to control the working condition of the rotating motor 21 according to the position signal of the shaft 232.

[0059] Specifically, the sensor assembly 40 includes a sensor base 41, a first sensor 42, a second sensor 43, and a third sensor 44. The sensor base 41 includes a first base, a second base and a third base. The second base and the third base are arranged at both ends of the first base and extend along the height direction H. The first sensor 42 is arranged on the first base, the second sensor 43 is arranged on the second base, and the third sensor 44 is arranged on the third base.

[0060] In one embodiment, when the sensing element 234 is arranged corresponding to the first sensor 42 , the flipping device 100 is in an initial state, and the testing machine 200 and the probe station 300 are arranged along the width direction W.

[0061] When the induction element 234 is arranged corresponding to the third sensor 44 , the flipping device 100 is in a testing state, the testing machine 200 is arranged on the probe station 300 , and the testing machine 200 and the probe station 300 are arranged along the height direction H.

[0062] It should be noted that when the sensing element 234 is set corresponding to the first sensor 42, the first sensor 42 outputs a first sensing signal to the controller component. The controller component outputs a status signal that the flip device 100 is in an initial state to the interactive interface based on the first sensing signal, so as to prompt the user that the flip device 100 is in an initial state at this time, and the test machine 200 can be maintained and operated. After the controller component controls the rotating motor 21 to drive the rotating shaft component 23 to rotate, when the sensing element 234 follows the shaft 232 to rotate to the second sensor 43, the second sensor 43 outputs a second sensing signal to the control component. The controller component can be used to control the rotating motor 21 to decelerate according to the second sensing signal, so as to reduce the rotation speed of the rotating mechanism 20, thereby reducing the moving speed of the connecting mechanism 30 and the test machine 200, so as to prevent the test machine 200 from damaging the probe station 300 or causing other safety accidents due to the high moving speed. When the sensing element 234 follows the shaft 232 to rotate to the third sensor 44, the third sensor 44 outputs a third sensing signal to the control component. The controller component can be used to control the rotating motor 21 to stop working according to the third sensing signal, so that the rotating shaft component 23 stops rotating, and further stops the testing machine 200 from moving, so as to prevent the testing machine 200 from damaging the probe station 300 or causing other safety accidents due to the high moving speed.

[0063] In another embodiment, when the flipping device 100 is in an initial state or a test state, the sensing element 234 is higher than the first sensor 42 and the third sensor 44, and the flipping path of the flipping device 100 includes an acceleration interval and a deceleration interval. The path of the sensing element 234 passing through the first sensor 42 corresponds to one of the acceleration interval and the deceleration interval, and the path of the sensing element 234 passing through the third sensor 44 corresponds to the other of the acceleration interval and the deceleration interval.

[0064] The path of the induction member 234 passing through the first sensor 42 corresponds to one of the acceleration section and the deceleration section. In other words, when the induction member 234 passes through the first sensor 42, the flipping path of the folding device is in the acceleration section or the deceleration section, that is, the rotating motor 21, the rotating shaft assembly 23 and the testing machine 200 are in an acceleration state or a deceleration state. The path of the induction member 234 passing through the third sensor 44 corresponds to the other of the acceleration section and the deceleration section. In other words, when the induction member 234 passes through the third sensor 44, the flipping path of the folding device is in the acceleration section or the deceleration section, that is, the rotating motor 21, the rotating shaft assembly 23 and the testing machine 200 are in an acceleration state or a deceleration state.

[0065] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the width of the sensing element 234 is relatively large. When the sensing element 234 corresponds to the first sensor 42, the time when the first sensor 42 detects the sensing element 234 is the time of one of the acceleration state or the deceleration state. When the sensing element 234 corresponds to the third sensor 44, the time when the first sensor 42 detects the sensing element 234 is the time of the other of the acceleration state or the deceleration state.

[0066] Specifically, the flipping device 100 flips from the initial state to the test state. When the flipping device 100 is in the initial state, the induction member 234 corresponds to the first sensor 42, and the first sensor 42 outputs a first sensor signal to the controller component. The controller component controls the rotation motor 21 to accelerate according to the first sensor signal, so that the shaft assembly 23 and the test machine 200 are in an accelerated rotation state; when the induction member 234 passes through the first sensor 42, and the induction member 234 is located between the first sensor 42 and the second sensor 43 When the sensing element 234 moves to the position corresponding to the third sensor 44, the third sensor 44 outputs a third sensing signal to the controller component, and the controller component controls the rotating motor 21 to decelerate according to the third sensing signal, so that the rotating shaft assembly 23 and the test machine 200 are in a decelerated rotation state, thereby preventing the test machine 200 from damaging the probe station 300 or causing other safety accidents due to the high moving speed.

[0067] Optionally, in other embodiments, when the sensing element 234 passes through the second sensor 43, the second sensor 43 outputs the second sensor 43 signal to the controller component, and the controller component controls the rotating motor 21 to rotate at a uniform speed according to the second sensor 43 signal, so that the rotating shaft assembly 23 and the testing machine 200 are in a uniform rotation state. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.
