[0043] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams that illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner only, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention, and directions and references (e.g., up, down, left, right, etc.) may only be used to help describe the features in the drawings. Therefore, the following specific embodiments are not to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the subject matter claimed is limited only by the attached claims and their equivalents.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a wafer coating device comprises:
[0045] The pressure applying assembly 1 has a plurality of components, each comprising a slidably arranged piston 101 and a corresponding pressure rod 102;
[0046] The upper die base 2 for mounting the pressure assembly 1 has a plurality of piston holes 201 for mounting the pistons 101 and an air cavity 202 connected with the plurality of piston holes 201 to drive the pistons 101 in the piston holes 201 to move downward when ventilated. The plurality of pistons 101 correspond to the plurality of piston holes 201 one by one and each piston 101 is slidably mounted in its corresponding piston hole 201. Gas enters the plurality of piston holes 201 through the air cavity 202 to push the pistons 101 in the piston holes 201 to move downward, and the pistons 101 push the corresponding pressure rods 102 to move downward. Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown;
[0047] And the pressure head assembly 3, including a pressing plate 301 for pressing down the wafer, a heating plate 302 fixed above the pressing plate 301 and used for heating the wafer, a force transmission plate 303 for receiving the pressure applied by the pressure-applying assembly 1, and a buffer plate 304 located between the force transmission plate 303 and the heating plate 302 and used for buffering the pressure on the force transmission plate 303. The four are coaxially fixed by screws, and the force transmission plate 303, the buffer plate 304 and the heating plate 302 are fixed by a central screw inserted in the center thereof, which avoids the offset between the various components to the greatest extent and saves installation time. The heating plate 302 and the pressing plate 301 are fixed by side screws located at the edge, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown.
[0048] A heating element is installed in the heating plate 302, and the heat generated by the heating element is transferred to the wafer through the heating plate 302 and the pressing plate 301 to meet the heating requirements of the wafer; a plurality of pressure rods 102 are densely distributed above the force transmission plate 303 to transfer the pressure applied by the piston 101 to the force transmission plate 303;
[0049] The cross-sectional area of the buffer plate 304 is smaller than the cross-sectional areas of the force transmission plate 303 and the heating plate 302, that is, the buffer plate 304 is located at the inner periphery of the force transmission plate 303, forming an I-shaped structure. The buffer plate 304 has a certain elasticity and has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and heat insulation. It is preferably made of PTFE material, which has a larger thermal expansion coefficient to alleviate the thermal stress received from the heating plate 302. The elastic properties it possesses can evenly transfer the pressure from the pressure rod 102 to the heating plate 302, and then to the crimping plate 301, playing an intermediate transition role, such as Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, when the buffer plate 304 is not provided, the pressure will be concentrated in the peripheral area, the pressure in the peripheral area is greater than the pressure in the central area, and the pressure is very uneven. After the buffer plate 304 is provided, the pressure in the peripheral area and the pressure in the central area remain balanced.
[0050] The bottom surface of the force transmission plate 303 includes a force transmission plane 3031 located in the middle to fit with the buffer plate 304 and an avoidance slope 3032 located outside the force transmission plane 3031 to avoid the heating plate 302, and the avoidance slope 3032 gradually inclines upward from the force transmission plane 3031 to the avoidance slope 3032, that is, the thickness of the force transmission plate 303 gradually increases from the end to the center. The pressure transmitted from the force transmission plate 303 to the buffer plate 304 needs to be maintained within a constant range. If it is too large, it will cause damage to the workpiece, and if it is too small, the workpiece will not be completely imprinted. If a thinner regular disc-shaped force transmission plate 303 is used, the stress applied to the buffer plate 304 is small, which cannot meet the imprinting requirements of the workpiece, and it is easy to cause the force transmission plate 303 to bend too much due to different materials, making the end of the force transmission plate 303 closer to the heating plate 302. Using a thicker force transmission plate 303 will increase the cost. This solution uses the avoidance slope 3032 to achieve a gradual increase in the thickness of the force transmission plate 303 from the end to the center, thereby avoiding the deformation of the force transmission plate 303 itself to the greatest extent and meeting the imprinting requirements of the workpiece.
[0051] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the upper die base 2 includes a top plate 203, a middle plate 204 and a base 205 which are fixed in sequence from top to bottom.

[0052] like Figure 4As shown, the top surface of the middle plate 204 is recessed to form a recessed area 2041, and a pressure plate 206 is embedded in the recessed area 2041. The piston seal 207 sleeved on the outside of the piston 101 is pressed between the pressure plate 206 and the middle plate 204. The pressure plate 206 can press multiple piston seals 207 at the same time, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0055] In some examples, such as Fig.13 As shown, the cross-section of the first pressing block 208 is a special-shaped arc surface formed by connecting multiple convex arc surfaces end to end, which is approximately in the shape of petals. The number of convex arc surfaces corresponds to the number of sub-bolts 212. The cross-sections of the first upper recessed portion 2031 and the first lower recessed portion 2042 both match the cross-sectional shape of the first pressing block 208, which is also approximately a petal structure. The first pressing block 208 is embedded in the first upper recessed portion 2031 and the first lower recessed portion 2042. The first pressing block 208 can be circumferentially fixed by the special-shaped arc surface to prevent it from rotating.

A second lower sealing member 215 is embedded between each second pressing block 213 and the middle plate 204, and the top plate 203, the second pressing block 213 and the middle plate 204 are fixed by second bolts 216, and the top plate 203 and the middle plate 204 are limited and clamped from the outer part to avoid air leakage after the top plate 203 swells, resulting in failure of the crimping, and the second bolts 216 are screwed in from bottom to top, and the base 205 is provided with a second avoidance hole for avoiding the nut of the second bolt 216.

The first piston 101a drives the first pressure rod 102a to move downward, and the second piston 101b drives the second pressure rod 102b to move downward, thereby forming two different pressures to meet different crimping requirements. Of course, a third pressure component can also be provided to form a third pressure.
[0059] In some examples, such as Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown, a third seal 217 and a fourth seal 218 arranged around the third seal 217 are pressed between the middle plate 204 and the top plate 203. The third seal 217 and the fourth seal 218 can be but are not limited to O-rings.

[0061] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the cross-sectional area of the force transmission plane 3031 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the buffer plate 304 so that the force transmission plate 303 and the buffer plate 304 are completely fitted together, and a step surface 3033 is formed between the force transmission plane 3031 and the avoidance slope 3032 .

[0066] Working principle:
[0067] The compressed air enters the piston hole 201 through the air cavity 202 to push the piston 101 in the piston hole 201 downward, and the piston 101 pushes the corresponding pressure rod 102 downward. The pressure rod 102 abuts against the force transmission plate 303 to transmit the pressure applied by the piston 101 to the force transmission plate 303. The force transmission plate 303 transmits the pressure from the pressure rod 102 evenly to the heating plate 302 through the buffer plate 304 with a certain elasticity, and then transmits it to the pressing plate 301, so that the pressing plate 301 applies uniform pressure to the wafer, and the avoidance slope 3032 of the force transmission plate 303 realizes that the thickness of the force transmission plate 303 gradually increases from the end to the center, which not only avoids the deformation of the force transmission plate 303 itself, but also meets the imprinting requirements of the workpiece.
