[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4As shown in the embodiment of the present invention, a wafer cleaning machine liquid supply device includes a machine frame 1; a plurality of liquid supply tanks 11 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the machine frame 1, and the plurality of liquid supply tanks 11 are respectively used to extract liquids of different concentrations; a lifting plate 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the plurality of liquid supply tanks 11; a piston rod 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of one side of the lifting plate 12, and a piston is installed at the bottom end of the piston rod 13; a bottom plate 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the liquid supply tank 11; a liquid storage tank 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 14, and the piston is slidably connected to the inner wall of the liquid storage tank 15. The bottom of the liquid storage tank 15 is fixedly connected to a one-way pressure valve and two solenoid valves; a first conduit 16 is fixedly connected to one of the solenoid valves; a cleaning assembly is provided at the end of the first conduit 16 away from the solenoid valve, and the cleaning assembly cleans the wafer by squeezing out the liquid in the first conduit 16; a transmission assembly is provided inside the multiple liquid supply tanks 11, which is used to drive the lifting plate 12 to slide up and down; when supplying liquid for wafer cleaning, the equipment frame 1 serves as the main structure of the wafer liquid supply equipment, and the multiple liquid supply tanks 11 are fixed to the outer wall of the equipment frame 1 as... The protective shell of the liquid supply component houses multiple liquid medicines of different concentrations in various liquid medicine containers. A one-way pressure valve is connected to the liquid medicine containers via a pipeline. The base plate 14 fixes the storage tank 15 to the bottom inner wall of the supply tank 11. The storage tank 15 is used to temporarily store the supplied liquid medicine. A sensor can be installed inside the storage tank 15 to monitor the concentration of the supplied liquid medicine. As the transmission component drives the lifting plate 12 to slide up against the inner wall of the supply tank 11, the lifting plate 12 can simultaneously drive the piston rod 13 to pull the piston. The piston slides up the inner wall of the storage tank 15, and the liquid medicine is drawn out through the pipeline connected to the one-way pressure valve. The liquid medicine in the container is transferred to the storage tank 15. At this time, the one-way pressure valve is open and multiple solenoid valves are closed. As the transmission component reverses and drives the lifting plate 12 to slide down, the piston squeezes the liquid medicine inside the storage tank 15. At this time, the solenoid valve connected to the first conduit 16 opens, allowing the liquid medicine to enter the first conduit 16 through the solenoid valve. Finally, the liquid medicine is squeezed out to clean the wafer. Depending on the type of wafer being cleaned, different concentrations of liquid medicine are extracted from different liquid medicine containers using a wafer liquid supply device. This allows for rapid and targeted liquid supply, thereby ensuring the processing efficiency of the wafer.
[0024] The transmission assembly includes a top plate 2, a guide rod 21, a stepper motor 22, and a lead screw 23. The top plate 2 is fixed to the inner top wall of the liquid supply tank 11. The guide rod 21 is fixed to the bottom middle of the top plate 2, and the bottom end of the guide rod 21 is fixed to the top top of the bottom plate 14, with the guide rod 21 penetrating the middle of the lifting plate 12. The stepper motor 22 is fixed to the bottom of the top plate 2, and the stepper motor 22 is located on the side of the guide rod 21 away from the liquid storage tank 15. The lead screw 23 is fixed to the output end of the stepper motor 22, and the lead screw 23 is connected to the lifting plate 12 through a screw and nut pair. When extracting the medicine, the top plate 2 is fixed to the inner top wall of the liquid supply tank 11 to support the stepper motor. 22. The output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate in the forward direction. The lead screw 23 then synchronously drives the lifting plate 12 connected to the lead screw nut pair to rise. The lifting plate 12 slides on the outer wall of the guide rod 21. The lifting plate 12 pulls the piston rod 13 and the piston to draw the liquid into the storage tank 15 through the pipeline connected to the one-way pressure valve. When the liquid is squeezed and conveyed, the output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate in the reverse direction. The lifting plate 12 slides down the outer wall of the guide rod 21. The lifting plate 12 drives the piston rod 13 and the piston to squeeze the liquid in the storage tank 15. The liquid is discharged from the first conduit 16 to clean the wafer, which plays the role of extracting and discharging the liquid.
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning assembly includes a first flow guide box 3, an injection pipe 31, a support base 32, a cleaning tank 33, and a cleaning rack 34. The first flow guide box 3 is fixedly connected to the end of a plurality of first conduits 16 away from the supply tank 11. The injection pipe 31 is fixedly connected to the top center of the first flow guide box 3. The support base 32 is fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the equipment frame 1. The cleaning tank 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the support base 32, and the end of the injection pipe 31 away from the first flow guide box 3 is connected to the center of the cleaning tank 33. The cleaning rack 34 is slidably connected to the cleaning... The inner wall of the box 33 is provided, and the cleaning rack 34 is located below the liquid injection pipe 31. When the wafer is being cleaned, the liquid temporarily stored in the storage tank 15 is pumped into the first guide box 3 through the first conduit 16. Then the liquid reaches the inside of the liquid injection pipe 31 and is sent to the middle top of the cleaning box 33. The cleaning rack 34 is used to support the wafer for auxiliary cleaning. The liquid is sprayed from the top of the inside of the cleaning box 33 to rinse the wafer on the cleaning rack 34. After rinsing the wafer, the liquid falls through the holes provided on the cleaning rack 34 into the support base 32 for temporary storage, which plays a role in cleaning the wafer.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a mixing cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base plate 14 away from the storage tank 15; a suction pipe 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mixing cylinder 4; a second conduit 42 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mixing cylinder 4, and the second conduit 42 is connected to a one-way pressure valve; multiple storage tanks 43 are fixedly connected to the upper end face of the equipment frame 1, and the suction pipe 41 is located inside the storage tank 43; when extracting the drug solution, multiple drug solutions of different concentrations are stored in multiple storage tanks 43 respectively. According to the different types of wafers, the piston rod 13 above the storage tank 43 containing different concentrations of drug solution drives the piston to extract the drug solution. The drug solution is extracted from the inside of the storage tank 43 by the suction pipe 41 and circulated in the mixing cylinder 4. The drug solution is extracted by the second conduit 42 and sent to the inside of the storage tank 15 through the one-way pressure valve, which plays the role of extracting the drug solution.
[0027] A connecting rod 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lead screw 23; multiple stirring blades 51 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mixing cylinder 4 inside the connecting rod 5; a filter screen plate 52 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 4, the connecting rod 5 passes through the middle of the filter screen plate 52, and the filter screen plate 52 is located below the stirring blades 51; a scraper blade 53 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting rod 5, and the scraper blade 53 is in contact with the bottom surface of the filter screen plate 52; when the liquid medicine is drawn into the interior of the mixing cylinder 4, the output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate. The screw 23 drives multiple stirring blades 51 on the connecting rod 5 to rotate synchronously. The multiple stirring blades 51 agitate the extracted liquid medicine, improving the uniform mixing effect of the liquid medicine. The filter screen plate 52 is fixed below the stirring blades 51 and can filter out large pieces of material after the liquid medicine has settled. The scraper blade 53 rotates to break up the large pieces of material, further improving the uniform mixing effect of the liquid medicine. At the same time, the scraper blade 53 can scrape against the bottom of the filter screen plate 52, reducing the possibility of blockage caused by the material attached to the bottom of the filter screen plate 52.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a connector 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the extraction pipe 41; short pipes 61 are fixedly connected to both sides of the connector 6; a long pipe 62 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connector 6, and a connecting rod 5 passes through the long pipe 62; an agitator 63 is fixedly connected to the outside of the bottom end of the connecting rod 5, and the agitator 63 is located at the bottom of the storage tank 43; when extracting the medicine liquid inside the storage tank 43, because the medicine liquid is prone to sedimentation and stratification after long-term storage, the connector 6 is used to fix the extraction pipe 41. The bottom end of 1 serves as a connector, with two short pipes 61 installed on both sides of the connector 6 to draw out the upper layer of medicine inside the storage tank 43. The long pipe 62 is fixed to the bottom end of the connector 6 and extends to the bottom end of the storage tank 43 to draw out the lower layer of medicine inside the storage tank 43. The stirring blade 63 rotates with the connecting rod 5 to stir the lower layer of medicine inside the storage tank 43, so that the lower layer of precipitated medicine is stirred. The upper and lower layers of medicine are drawn into the mixing cylinder 4 for mixing to ensure the concentration of the extracted medicine.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a No. 3 conduit 7 is fixedly connected to one of the solenoid valves; a No. 2 flow guide box 71 is fixedly connected to one end of the two No. 3 conduits 7 away from the liquid supply tank 11; a thick pipe 72 is fixedly connected to the middle of the No. 2 flow guide box 71, and the end of the thick pipe 72 away from the No. 2 flow guide box 71 is installed on the No. 1 flow guide box 3 through a valve; when extracting the drug solution, it is necessary to take the concentration between the two drug solutions, and at the same time, the two liquid storage tanks 15 extract the drug solution inside the two liquid storage tanks 43, and then squeeze the drug solution temporarily stored in the two liquid storage tanks 15 to discharge it from the two No. 3 conduits 7. The two No. 3 conduits 7 discharge the two different drug solutions into the No. 2 flow guide box 71 to accumulate, and then transport it to the No. 1 flow guide box 3 by the thick pipe 72. Finally, the wafer is sprayed and rinsed at the top of the cleaning tank 33 by the injection pipe 31, which plays the role of mixing drug solutions of different concentrations.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a liquid storage tank 8 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the equipment frame 1; a water pump 81 is fixedly connected to the liquid storage tank 8; a first water pipe 82 is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump 81, and the end of the first water pipe 82 away from the water pump 81 is fixedly connected to one side of the first flow guide box 3; a second water pipe 83 is fixedly connected to the end of the first flow guide box 3 away from the first water pipe 82; after the liquid is extracted to rinse the wafer, some liquid remains inside the first flow guide box 3. The liquid storage tank 8 stores clean water, and the water pump 81 extracts the clean water from the liquid storage tank 8 and sends the clean water to the inside of the first flow guide box 3 through the first water pipe 82 for rinsing, thereby cleaning the inside of the first flow guide box 3.
[0031] The top of the support base 32 is provided with a collection groove; a filter screen is fixed to the inner wall of the collection groove; when the wafer is cleaned, the wafer is placed on the cleaning rack 34 for cleaning with the cleaning solution, and the cleaning solution falls through the cleaning rack 34 into the collection groove of the support base 32. The filter screen filters out excessive impurities in the solution, thus collecting the solution.
[0032] A control valve 9 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support base 32, and the control valve 9 is connected to the collection tank. A recovery pipe 91 is fixedly connected to the end of the control valve 9 away from the support base 32. A one-way valve 92 is installed between the recovery pipe 91 and a storage tank 43. After the wafer is cleaned with the chemical solution, part of the chemical solution is temporarily stored in the collection tank of the support base 32. The control valve 9 is opened to connect with the recovery pipe 91, and the chemical solution in the collection tank is sent to the one-way valve 92 through the recovery pipe 91. The chemical solution enters a storage tank 43 for storage through the one-way valve 92. This storage tank 43 is used to collect and mix the recovered chemical solution. The recovered chemical solution can be extracted for cleaning low-quality wafers, thus playing the role of recycling the chemical solution.
[0033] Working process: During wafer cleaning and liquid supply, the equipment frame 1 serves as the main structure of the wafer liquid supply equipment. Multiple liquid supply tanks 11 are fixed to the outer wall of the equipment frame 1 as protective shells for the liquid supply components. Various solutions of different concentrations are placed in multiple solution containers. A one-way pressure valve is connected to the solution containers through a pipeline. The base plate 14 fixes the storage tank 15 to the bottom inner wall of the liquid supply tank 11. The storage tank 15 is used to temporarily store the supplied solution. A sensor can be installed inside the storage tank 15 to monitor the concentration of the supplied solution. As the transmission component drives the lifting plate 12 to slide up the inner wall of the liquid supply tank 11, the lifting plate 12 can simultaneously drive the piston rod 13 to pull the piston. The piston slides up the inner wall of the storage tank 15, and the solution is drawn from the storage tank through the pipeline connected to the one-way pressure valve. The cleaning solution in the device flows into the storage tank 15. At this time, the one-way pressure valve is open, and multiple solenoid valves are closed. As the transmission component reverses and drives the lifting plate 12 to slide down, the piston squeezes the cleaning solution inside the storage tank 15. At this time, the solenoid valve connected to the first conduit 16 opens, allowing the cleaning solution to enter the first conduit 16 through the solenoid valve. Finally, the cleaning solution is squeezed out to clean the wafer. Depending on the type of wafer being cleaned, different concentrations of cleaning solution are extracted from different cleaning solution containers using a wafer liquid supply device. This allows for rapid and targeted liquid supply, thereby ensuring the processing efficiency of the wafer. During the extraction of the cleaning solution, the top plate 2 is fixed to the inner wall of the top of the liquid supply tank 11, supporting the stepper motor 22. The output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate in the forward direction. The 23rd stepper motor synchronously drives the lifting plate 12 connected to the lead screw nut pair to rise. The lifting plate 12 slides on the outer wall of the guide rod 21. The lifting plate 12 pulls the piston rod 13 and the piston to draw the liquid into the storage tank 15 through the pipeline connected to the one-way pressure valve. When the liquid is squeezed and conveyed, the output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate in the opposite direction. The lifting plate 12 slides down the outer wall of the guide rod 21. The lifting plate 12 drives the piston rod 13 and the piston to squeeze the liquid in the storage tank 15. The liquid is discharged from the first conduit 16 to clean the wafer, which plays the role of liquid extraction and discharge. When the liquid is supplied to clean the wafer, the liquid temporarily stored in the storage tank 15 is pumped into the first guide box 3 through the first conduit 16. Then the liquid reaches the injection pipe 31. The wafer is sent to the top of the middle of the cleaning tank 33. The cleaning rack 34 is used to support the wafer for auxiliary cleaning. The cleaning solution is sprayed from the top of the cleaning tank 33 to rinse the wafer on the cleaning rack 34. After rinsing the wafer, the cleaning solution falls through the holes on the cleaning rack 34 into the support base 32 for temporary storage, which plays a role in cleaning the wafer. When the cleaning solution is extracted, multiple solutions of different concentrations are stored in multiple storage tanks 43. According to the different types of wafers, the piston rod 13 above the storage tank 43 containing different concentrations of cleaning solution drives the piston to extract the cleaning solution. The cleaning solution is extracted from the storage tank 43 by the extraction pipe 41 to the mixing cylinder 4 for circulation. The cleaning solution is extracted by the second conduit 42 and sent to the inside of the storage tank 15 through the one-way pressure valve, which plays a role in extracting the cleaning solution.When the liquid medicine is drawn into the mixing cylinder 4, the output end of the stepper motor 22 drives the lead screw 23 to rotate. The lead screw 23 can drive multiple stirring blades 51 on the connecting rod 5 to rotate synchronously. The multiple stirring blades 51 agitate the drawn liquid medicine, improving the uniform mixing effect of the liquid medicine. The filter screen plate 52 is fixed below the stirring blades 51 and can filter out large pieces of material after the liquid medicine has settled. The scraper blade 53 rotates to break up the large pieces of material, further improving the uniform mixing effect of the liquid medicine. At the same time, the scraper blade 53 can scrape against the bottom of the filter screen plate 52, reducing the possibility of blockage caused by the material attached to the bottom of the filter screen plate 52. When extracting the medicine from the storage tank 43, the medicine is prone to sedimentation and stratification due to long-term storage. The connector 6 is fixed to the bottom of the extraction pipe 41 as a joint. Two short pipes 61 are installed on both sides of the connector 6 to extract the upper layer of medicine from the storage tank 43. The long pipe 62 is fixed to the bottom of the connector 6 and extends to the bottom of the storage tank 43 to extract the lower layer of medicine from the storage tank 43. The stirring blade 63 rotates with the connecting rod 5 to stir the lower layer of medicine in the storage tank 43, so that the sedimented medicine in the lower layer is stirred. The upper and lower layers of medicine are extracted into the mixing cylinder 4 for mixing to ensure the concentration of the extracted medicine. When extracting the drug solution, the concentration between the two drug solutions needs to be measured. At the same time, the two storage tanks 15 extract the drug solution from the two storage tanks 43. Then, the drug solution temporarily stored in the two storage tanks 15 is squeezed out from the two No. 3 conduits 7. The two No. 3 conduits 7 discharge the two different drug solutions into the No. 2 diversion box 71 for collection. The solution is then transported to the No. 1 diversion box 3 by the thick pipe 72. Finally, the solution is sprayed and rinsed on the top of the cleaning tank 33 by the injection pipe 31, which serves to mix and use drug solutions of different concentrations. After the solution is extracted to rinse the wafer, some solution remains inside the No. 1 flow box 3. Clean water is stored inside the liquid storage tank 8, and the water pump 81 extracts the clean water from the liquid storage tank 8 and sends it to the No. 1 flow box 3 through the No. 1 water pipe 82 to rinse the inside of the No. 1 flow box 3, thereby cleaning the inside of the No. 1 flow box 3. When cleaning wafers, the wafers are placed on the cleaning rack 34 and cleaned with the cleaning solution. The cleaned solution flows through the cleaning rack 34 and falls into the collection tank of the support base 32. The filter screen filters out excessive substances in the solution, thus collecting the solution. After cleaning the wafers with the solution, some of the solution is temporarily stored in the collection tank of the support base 32. The control valve 9 is opened to connect with the recovery pipe 91. The solution in the collection tank is sent to the one-way valve 92 through the recovery pipe 91. The solution then enters a storage tank 43 for storage. This storage tank 43 is used to collect and mix the recovered solution. The recovered solution can be extracted for cleaning low-quality wafers, thus achieving the purpose of recycling the solution.
