[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0026] 1. By controlling several groups of limit rods to drive several groups of limit rings to fix the silicon crystal rod, the laser ranging module set in the circular array at the bottom of the supporting disk detects the horizontal state of the silicon crystal rod in real time and makes real-time adjustments, controls several groups of limit rings to descend synchronously to drive the silicon crystal rod to move vertically downward, and cooperates with the laser processing mechanism to perform ring-type laser cutting on the bottom of the silicon crystal rod.

[0027] 2. The two sets of support plates are driven to move toward the opposite side by controlling the clamp, so that the two sets of protective shells are pressed against each other under the elastic action of the two sets of gas springs to wrap the laser cutter. At the same time, the two sets of protective shells will bring in nitrogen at the same time. The two sets of second sealing rings can prevent nitrogen leakage, so that when the production equipment is idle, the laser cutter can be protected by the two sets of protective shells to avoid external damage, and stored in inert gas, which can prevent equipment aging, improve the protection performance of the production equipment and increase the service life.

[0028] 3.

After the air is discharged through the air outlet block, the air inlet block and the air outlet block are connected through the corresponding fan equipment, so that the nitrogen in the slicing area is in a swirling flow state of nitrogen. The swirling flow nitrogen will quickly take away the heat generated by the laser processing mechanism during operation, and it is convenient to recycle the nitrogen after the slicing is completed, which extends the continuous working time of the production equipment while reducing the economic cost.

[0029] 4. During the progressive slicing process, the wafer will fall on the top of the lifting plate of the storage mechanism, and then the swing arm will be controlled to drive the gasket placer to move to the top of the storage mechanism, and a flexible gasket will be placed on the top of the wafer. Then the output end of the second electric push rod will drop, and the lifting plate will drive the wafer and the flexible gasket down into the storage tube. The operation will be repeated several times so that several groups of wafers are stacked and stored in the storage tube. Finally, the storage tube will be taken out and the wafer will be processed for the next step. While realizing progressive slicing, it avoids the collision of wafers and improves the use effect of production equipment.

[0046] When wafer slicing is being performed, the cooperation between the rotating seat 2 and the mechanical arm 3 drives the position limiting feeding mechanism 4 to clamp the silicon crystal rod and transfer it to the laser processing mechanism 5, and then controls several groups of electric slides 10 to drive the protective cover 9 to rise and contact the bottom of the position limiting feeding mechanism 4, so that the slicing area is in a sealed state, and then nitrogen is filled into the protective cover 9 through the air intake block 14, and then the air is discharged through the air outlet block 15, and the air intake block 14 is connected with the air outlet block 15 through the corresponding fan equipment.

[0047] The nitrogen in the slicing area is in a swirling flow state of nitrogen, and then the laser processing mechanism 5 is controlled to start laser cutting from the bottom of the silicon crystal rod. At the same time, the limit feeding mechanism 4 is controlled to drive the silicon crystal rod to descend, and progressive slicing is performed.

[0048] For example, Figure 4 , Figure 5and Figure 6 As shown, the limiting feeding mechanism 4 includes a supporting disc 401; a plurality of first slide grooves 402 are arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the supporting disc 401; a group of limiting rods 403 are arranged in each group of the first slide grooves 402; a group of limiting rings 404 are movably sleeved on the outer wall of each group of the limiting rods 403; a plurality of limiting grooves are arranged in a circular array on the outer wall of each group of the limiting rings 404, and the materials are rubber; a plurality of laser ranging modules 405 are arranged in a circular array at the center of the bottom of the supporting disc 401; a first sealing ring 406 is arranged at the bottom of the supporting disc 401; the bottom of the first sealing ring 406 movably contacts the top of the protective cover 9;

[0049] Specifically, a first adjustment cavity 407 is provided in the support disc 401; a support column 408 is provided at the center of the bottom inner wall of the first adjustment cavity 407; a plurality of groups of first motors 409 are distributed in a circular array on the inner wall of the first adjustment cavity 407; a group of first screw rods 410 are transmission-connected to the output end of each group of the first motors 409; one end of each group of the first screw rods 410 away from the corresponding group of the first motors 409 is rotationally connected to the outer wall of the support column 408; a plurality of groups of first sliders 411 are slidably connected to the bottom inner wall of the first adjustment cavity 407; each group of the first sliders 411 is threadedly connected to the corresponding group of the first screw rods 410;

[0050] Specifically, each group of the first sliders 411 is transmission connected with a corresponding group of limiting rods 403; a second motor 413 is provided on the top inner wall of each group of the limiting rods 403; a second screw rod 414 is transmission connected to the output end of each group of the second motor 413; one end of each group of the second screw rod 414 away from the corresponding group of the second motor 413 is rotationally connected to the bottom inner wall of the limiting rod 403; a group of second sliding grooves 412 are opened on the inner wall of each group of the limiting rods 403; a group of second sliders 415 are slidably connected in each group of the second sliding grooves 412; each group of the second sliders 415 is threadedly connected with a corresponding group of the second screw rods 414; each group of the second sliders 415 is transmission connected with a corresponding group of limiting rings 404.

[0051] By controlling a plurality of groups of first motors 409 to drive the first screw rod 410 to rotate, under the threaded connection relationship between the first screw rod 410 and the first slider 411, the plurality of groups of first sliders 411 drive the plurality of groups of limit rods 403 to move toward the direction of the central axis of the supporting disk 401, so that the two side edges of the corresponding limit grooves on the outer walls of the plurality of groups of limit rings 404 abut against the outer wall of the silicon crystal rod to fix the silicon crystal rod, and the laser ranging module 405 arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the supporting disk 401 can detect the horizontal state of the silicon crystal rod in real time, and can keep the silicon crystal rod in a horizontal state during the slicing process by controlling the lifting and lowering of the corresponding limit ring 404, and at the same time control the synchronous descent of the plurality of groups of limit rings 404, so that the silicon crystal rod can be sliced ​​progressively in the vertical direction, avoiding the need for mobile cutting by the laser cutting mechanism, thereby improving the working quality of the production equipment and the working efficiency of the production equipment.

[0052] For example, Figure 7 As shown, the laser processing mechanism 5 includes an annular electric guide rail 501; a plurality of groups of universal balls 7 are hinged at the bottom of the annular electric guide rail 501; a laser cutting assembly 502 and an optical attenuator 503 are symmetrically connected to the inner wall of the annular electric guide rail 501; a swing arm 504 is connected to the inner wall of the annular electric guide rail 501; and a gasket placer 505 is connected to the output end of the swing arm 504.

[0053] For example, Figure 8 As shown, the laser cutting assembly 502 includes a clamp 5021; a horizontal sensor 5022 is provided on the top of the clamp 5021; a laser cutter 5023 is provided at the center of a side wall of the clamp 5021 away from the annular electric guide rail 501; two groups of support plates 5024 are symmetrically connected to the output end of the clamp 5021; two groups of gas springs 5025 are symmetrically provided on the opposite side walls of the two groups of support plates 5024; two groups of protective shells 5026 are symmetrically connected to the opposite ends of the two groups of gas springs 5025; a group of second sealing rings 5027 is provided on the inner wall of each group of protective shells 5026.

[0054] For example, Fig. 9 As shown, the material storage mechanism 11 includes a material storage tube 1101; a lifting plate 1102 is slidably connected to the material storage tube 1101 in a vertical direction; a movable through groove 1103 is opened at the center of the bottom inner wall of the material storage tube 1101; the output end of the second electric push rod 13 movably passes through the movable through groove 1103 and abuts against the bottom of the lifting plate 1102.

[0055] When the wafer is slicing, the silicon crystal rod reaches the top of the storage mechanism 11, and the horizontal sensor 5022 can detect the horizontal state of the laser cutter 5023 in real time, and adjust the horizontal state of the laser cutter 5023 by controlling the extension and retraction of several groups of first electric push rods 6. When the laser cutter 5023 and the silicon crystal rod reach the horizontal state at the same time, the flatness of the wafer can be guaranteed during cutting.

[0056] After the preparation work is completed, the laser cutter 5023 emits laser rays to penetrate through the silicon crystal rod, and the extension of the laser is blocked by the optical attenuator 503, and then the annular electric guide rail 501 is controlled to rotate 180° to complete the cutting of the wafer, and the wafer falls on the top of the lifting plate 1102 of the storage mechanism 11, and then the swing arm 504 is controlled to drive the gasket placer 505 to move to the top of the storage mechanism 11, and a flexible gasket is placed on the top of the wafer. Then the output end of the second electric push rod 13 descends, and the lifting plate 1102 drives the wafer and the flexible gasket to descend into the storage tube 1101. The operation is repeated several times, so that several groups of wafers are stacked and stored in the storage tube 1101. Finally, the storage tube 1101 is taken out, and the next step of processing is carried out on the wafer. While realizing progressive slicing, it avoids the collision of wafers with each other, thereby improving the use effect of the production equipment.

[0057] When the production equipment completes the slicing work, the clamp 5021 is first controlled to drive the two groups of support plates 5024 to move toward the opposite side, so that the two groups of protective shells 5026 are pressed together under the elastic action of the two groups of gas springs 5025 to wrap the laser cutter 5023. At the same time, the two groups of protective shells 5026 will bring in nitrogen at the same time, and the two groups of second sealing rings 5027 can prevent nitrogen leakage, so that when the production equipment is idle, the laser cutter 5023 can be protected by the two groups of protective shells 5026 to avoid damage from external forces, and stored in inert gas to avoid equipment aging, thereby improving the protection performance of the production equipment and increasing its service life.

[0058] By controlling several groups of limit rods 403 to drive several groups of limit rings 404 to fix the silicon crystal rod, the laser ranging module 405 set in the circular array at the bottom of the supporting disk 401 detects the horizontal state of the silicon crystal rod in real time and makes real-time adjustments, controls several groups of limit rings 404 to descend synchronously to drive the silicon crystal rod to move vertically downward, and cooperates with the laser processing mechanism 5 to perform ring-type laser cutting on the bottom of the silicon crystal rod. After repeated several times, the progressive slicing of the silicon crystal rod is completed, which not only improves the efficiency of the existing round wafer slicing work, but also realizes the real-time correction of the silicon crystal rod, avoids the impact on the finished product yield when the offset occurs, and improves the working quality of the production equipment.

[0059] By controlling the clamp 5021 to drive the two groups of support plates 5024 to move toward the opposite side, the two groups of protective shells 5026 are pressed together under the elastic action of the two groups of gas springs 5025 to wrap the laser cutter 5023. At the same time, the two groups of protective shells 5026 will bring in nitrogen at the same time. The two groups of second sealing rings 5027 can prevent nitrogen leakage, so that when the production equipment is idle, the laser cutter 5023 can be protected by the two groups of protective shells 5026 to avoid external damage, and stored in inert gas to prevent equipment aging, thereby improving the protection performance of the production equipment and increasing the service life.

[0060] By controlling the protective cover 9 to rise and contact the bottom of the limiting feeding mechanism 4, the slicing area is in a sealed state, and then nitrogen is filled into the protective cover 9 through the air inlet block 14. After the air is discharged through the air outlet block 15, the air inlet block 14 and the air outlet block 15 are connected through the corresponding fan equipment, so that the nitrogen in the slicing area is in a swirling flow state of nitrogen. The swirling flow nitrogen will quickly take away the heat generated by the laser processing mechanism 5 when it is working, and it is convenient to recycle the nitrogen after the slicing is completed, thereby extending the continuous working time of the production equipment and reducing the economic cost.

[0061] During the progressive slicing process, the wafer will fall on the top of the lifting plate 1102 of the storage mechanism 11, and then the swing arm 504 will be controlled to drive the gasket placer 505 to move to the top of the storage mechanism 11, and a flexible gasket will be placed on the top of the wafer. Then the output end of the second electric push rod 13 will descend, and the lifting plate 1102 will drive the wafer and the flexible gasket to descend into the storage tube 1101. The operation is repeated several times, so that several groups of wafers are stacked and stored in the storage tube 1101. Finally, the storage tube 1101 is taken out and the wafer is processed for the next step. While realizing progressive slicing, it avoids the collision of wafers with each other, thereby improving the use effect of the production equipment.
