Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of grinding equipment, and more specifically, to a grinding device. Background Art

[0002] In the processing of semiconductor materials, wafers, as the basic materials of commonly used semiconductor devices and integrated circuits, often need to be polished, and the quality of polishing technology will directly affect the quality of silicon wafers and the performance of semiconductor devices. The polishing device used for chemical mechanical polishing of the wafer parts to be polished generally includes a polishing platform, a polishing head and a polishing pad arranged on the polishing platform. In the manufacturing process of the parts to be polished, chemical mechanical polishing is to fix and adsorb the back of the parts to be polished by the polishing head, supply chemical polishing liquid to the polishing surface covered with the polishing pad, press the front of the parts to be polished on the polishing pad, apply pressure to the parts to be polished by the polishing head, and make the polishing platform and the polishing head move relative to each other, so as to mechanically polish the surface of the parts to be polished after chemical corrosion.

[0003] The document with the prior art publication number CN111168561B provides a grinding head for a wafer grinding device, including a first rotating shaft, a grinding disc and an adsorption-type combined pad, wherein the first rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the upper end of the grinding disc; the adsorption-type combined pad includes a back pad, a fixing ring and a buffer ring, the back pad is fixed to the lower surface of the grinding disc, the fixing ring and the buffer ring are fixed to the lower surface of the back pad, and the fixing ring is sleeved on the outside of the buffer ring, and the buffer ring and the back pad are not surrounded by the fixing ring and the lower surface of the buffer ring to form a wafer accommodating space. The grinding head of this invention sets a buffer ring between the fixing ring and the wafer to be ground, which can effectively prevent the edge stress concentration phenomenon caused by the fixing ring during the grinding process and improve the wafer grinding effect.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned prior art solutions can achieve relevant beneficial effects through the structure of the prior art, there are still the following defects: the prior art overall top pressure grinding has some problems, especially when the size of the part to be ground is large or the material properties are uneven, it may cause the surface flatness of the part to be ground after grinding to be insufficient or the thickness uniformity is poor. The prior art is not suitable for grinding parts to be ground with cut edges or notches; there is no targeted solution for the cut edge part, which leads to some adverse effects of the cut edge; when the part to be ground has a cut edge notch, and the part to be ground is subjected to overall adsorption and top pressure grinding, the following problems may occur: 1. When the pressure is insufficient: the edge cannot be sealed, the grinding liquid enters between the back of the wafer and the silicone airbag membrane, corrodes and contaminates the back of the wafer and the silicone airbag membrane; the removal rate is low and the efficiency is low; 2. When the pressure is too high: the silicone airbag membrane will be squeezed to contact the grinding pad, the silicone airbag membrane will be worn, and the loss of the silicone airbag membrane will increase; increase production costs. 3. Uneven grinding: Due to the cut edge notch of the part to be ground, the grinding head may cause uneven grinding pressure distribution due to the presence of the notch when contacting the part to be ground. This may lead to inconsistent thickness of the surface of the part to be ground after grinding, which in turn affects the flatness of the part to be ground and the quality of subsequent processes. 4. Chipping and fragmentation: The part to be ground is a brittle material. If it is subjected to uneven pressure or impact during the grinding process, especially at the notch, it is easy to chip or break. This will not only reduce the yield rate of the part to be ground, but also increase production costs.

[0005] In view of this, we propose a grinding device. Summary of the invention

[0037] 3. Beneficial effects

[0038] One or more technical solutions provided in the technical solution of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: 1. The present invention presses the middle part of the part to be ground through the protective seat; and presses the edge of the part to be ground through the edge pressing block. This prevents the airbag film from exceeding the thickness of the wafer and contacting the grinding liquid and the grinding platform due to the failure to seal the edge or excessive pressure when grinding the part to be ground with a cut edge. A larger pressure can be applied without causing the airbag film to exceed the thickness of the wafer and contact the grinding liquid and the grinding platform due to the failure to seal the edge or excessive pressure. This can improve the removal rate and production efficiency.

[0039] 2. The edge of the part to be ground is pressed by the edge pressing block, which avoids the problem of insufficient grinding of the edge of the part to be ground when grinding the part with cut edges, thereby improving the grinding quality and yield rate.

[0040] 3. It has strong adaptability and can grind parts with cut edges. The device can adsorb, fix and grind parts with cut edges, which expands its scope of application and flexibility.

[0041] 4. The combination of the protective seat and the edge pressure block can ensure that the grinding pressure can be more evenly distributed on the surface of the part to be ground during the grinding process, especially for the part to be ground with a cutting edge notch. The edge pressure block's top pressure on the edge of the part to be ground can compensate for the uneven grinding pressure caused by the notch, reduce the inconsistency of the thickness of the surface of the part to be ground after grinding, and thus improve the flatness of the part to be ground and the quality of subsequent processes.

[0042] 5. Reduce the risk of chipping and breaking: The additional pressure on the edge of the part to be ground by the edge pressure block can effectively reduce the risk of chipping or breaking caused by uneven pressure or impact during the grinding process. This design is especially suitable for parts to be ground with cutting edges, which can significantly improve the yield of the parts to be ground and reduce production costs.

[0043] 6. Stress concentration can be dispersed: The pressure of the edge pressure block on the edge of the part to be ground not only helps to evenly distribute the grinding pressure, but also disperses the stress concentration at the notch to a certain extent. This can reduce the risk of cracks or fractures caused by stress concentration in the subsequent processing or use of the part to be ground, and also help to maintain the electrical properties of the part to be ground stable and improve the performance and reliability of the chip.

[0044] 7. The present invention uses a highly elastic, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant material to fix the part to be ground by using the airbag rubber diaphragm, which ensures stability and uniformity during the grinding process. The softness of the airbag rubber diaphragm helps to reduce stress concentration and damage during the grinding process, and protects the integrity and performance of the part to be ground.

[0050] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0051] Reference Figure 1, the embodiment of the present application provides a grinding device, including: a bracket 1, a retaining ring 2, an upper flange 3, an upper cover ring 5, a main body 6, a protective seat 7, an airbag rubber diaphragm 8, an edge pressure block 9 and a positioning sealing seat 12; A retaining ring 2 is detachably fixedly provided below the bracket 1; An upper cover ring 5 is detachably fixedly provided on the upper side of the bracket 1; The main body 6 is slidably arranged inside the upper cover ring 5; the upper flange 3 is detachably fixedly arranged above the main body 6; the upper flange 3 is detachably fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the external device; the upper flange 3 and the drive shaft of the external device are detachably fixedly connected through a standard interface (such as a flange, a chuck, etc.) to achieve power transmission, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of power transmission.

[0052] A positioning sealing seat 12 is detachably fixedly provided on the main body 6; A protective seat 7 is slidably provided on the main body 6; the protective seat 7 is slidably matched with the retaining ring 2; The lower end of the protective seat 7 is detachably fixed with an airbag rubber diaphragm 8; the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 can adsorb and fix the part to be ground 4. The airbag rubber diaphragm 8 is arranged between the protective seat 7, the retaining ring 2 and the bracket 1; the protective seat 7 is slidably arranged on the main body 6, and the protective seat 7 cooperates with the retaining ring 2 to ensure smooth operation during the grinding process. The airbag rubber diaphragm 8 is made of highly elastic, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, and fixes the part to be ground 4 through negative pressure adsorption to ensure stability and uniformity during the grinding process. At the same time, the softness of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 helps to reduce stress concentration and damage during the grinding process. The airbag rubber diaphragm 8 adsorbs and fixes the part to be ground 4, and achieves stable adsorption through negative pressure to ensure grinding uniformity.

[0053] The upper cover ring 5 protects the internal components, and the upper cover ring 5, the retaining ring 2, the main body 6, the protective seat 7 and the bracket 1 together form a closed space.

[0054] The inner side of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 is detachably fixed with an edge pressing block 9. The edge of the grinding component 4 is pressed by the edge pressing block 9.

[0055] A sealing ring seat 14 is detachably fixed on the protection seat 7. The sealing ring seat 14 is slidably matched with the bracket 1; The part to be ground 4 can be a circular part to be ground with cut edges or notches.

A larger pressure can be applied, and there will be no problem of the airbag membrane exceeding the thickness of the wafer and contacting the grinding liquid and the grinding platform due to the failure to seal the edge or excessive pressure, which can improve the removal rate and production efficiency.

[0057] Furthermore, an outer stop ring 10 is detachably fixedly provided on the outer side of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8. The outer stop ring 10 can limit the displacement of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 during the grinding process, ensuring that the part to be ground 4 always remains in the correct grinding position. At the same time, the outer stop ring 10 can also provide additional support for the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 to prevent it from being deformed or damaged under high pressure. The outer stop ring 10 should be made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure its stability and reliability in long-term use.

[0058] Furthermore, a positioning sealing seat 12 is arranged between the bracket 1 and the main body 6, and a rolling diaphragm 11 is arranged on the outer side of the positioning sealing seat 12; the inner side of the rolling diaphragm 11 is arranged between the main body 6 and the positioning sealing seat 12; the outer side of the rolling diaphragm 11 is arranged between the upper cover ring 5 and the bracket 1, and the rolling diaphragm 11 plays a good sealing role.

[0059] The rolling diaphragm 11 is made of a material with high elasticity, wear resistance and corrosion resistance to ensure its sealing and stability for long-term use.

[0060] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lower end of the retaining ring 2 is evenly provided with a plurality of drainage grooves 21; the drainage grooves 21 are used to discharge the grinding liquid during the grinding process of the part to be ground, and are also used to observe the wear degree of the retaining ring 2. The design of the drainage grooves 21 allows the grinding liquid to be smoothly discharged from the bottom of the retaining ring 2, avoiding the degradation of the grinding effect or equipment failure caused by the accumulation of grinding liquid.

[0061] In this technical solution, the drain groove 21 is used to drain the grinding liquid during the grinding process of the part to be ground, and is also used to observe the wear degree of the retaining ring 2. When the depth of the drain groove 21 is worn to the set minimum value, it means that the retaining ring 2 has been excessively worn and needs to be replaced with a new retaining ring 2.

[0072] The pressure plate 73 is provided with a connecting groove 751, which connects the air groove A74, the air groove B75 and the air groove C76; The shaft 71 is provided with a shaft air passage 79; In this technical solution, the air grooves A74 and C76 are used to adsorb and fix the part to be ground 4 through negative pressure; the air grooves A74 and C76 realize a function similar to a suction cup to adsorb and fix the part to be ground 4; the design of multiple air grooves can make the air pressure more uniform when it is transferred to the part to be ground. Due to the large number of air grooves, the air pressure can be distributed over a wider area, thereby avoiding the situation where the part to be ground is subjected to excessive local force. Uniform air pressure transmission helps to ensure the stability and accuracy of the part to be ground during the grinding process and improve the grinding quality. Multiple air grooves can form more air pressure support points, which work together to fix the part to be ground more firmly on the pressure plate 73. Stable fixation helps prevent the part to be ground from shifting or deforming during the grinding process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the grinding.

[0073] Furthermore, a pressure ring 13 is detachably fixedly provided on the edge pressure block 9; preferably, the edge pressure block 9 and the pressure ring 13 are fixedly connected by a plurality of bolts. The pressure ring 13 and the edge pressure block 9 are both annular structures.

[0074] The airbag rubber diaphragm 8 can be supported and fixed by the edge pressing block 9 and the pressure ring 13, so that the part to be ground can be evenly stressed. When grinding parts with cut edges or notches, the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 can be supported and fixed by the edge pressing block 9 and the pressure ring 13, so that the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 above the cut edge or notch can remain in a horizontal state, avoiding the grinding liquid from entering between the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 and the part to be ground, and ensuring a good grinding effect. If there is no edge pressing block 9 and the pressure ring 13 to support the airbag rubber diaphragm 8, when grinding parts with cut edges or notches, the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 above the cut edge or notch will sag under the action of gravity, and the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 will be worn and damaged by the grinding head, reducing the service life.

[0075] In this technical solution, the edge pressure block 9 and the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 are fixed by a pressure ring 13 .

[0076] Furthermore, a gas path A31, a gas path B32 and a gas path C33 are provided on the upper flange 3; The air path A31 is in communication with the shaft air channel 79, the air groove A74 and the air groove C76; Through the cooperation of the rolling diaphragm 11 and the sealing ring C17, an air pressure chamber A is formed between the main body 6, the upper cover ring 5, the protective seat 7 and the bracket 1; The side cavity 81 of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8, the bracket 1, the protection seat 7 and the sealing ring seat 14 form an air pressure cavity B; The air path B32 is connected to the air pressure chamber A. The cooperation between the air pressure path 32 and the air pressure chamber A can make the upper cover ring 5, the protection seat 7 and the bracket 1 move downward under the action of air squeezing.

[0077] The air path C33 is connected to the air pressure chamber B. The air pressure chamber B and the air pressure path 32 cooperate to enable the edge pressure block 9 and the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 to press the edge of the part to be ground 4 .

[0078] The shaft air channel 79, the air groove A74, the air groove C76 and the main cavity 82 form a vacuum adsorption cavity; the part to be ground 4 is adsorbed and fixed through the vacuum adsorption cavity and the airbag rubber diaphragm 8.

[0080] The sealing ring seat 14 is provided with a ring groove B, and the ring groove B is provided with a sealing ring D18. When the sealing ring seat 14 contacts the bracket 1, the sealing ring D18 can play a sealing role.

[0081] A sealing ring E19 is provided between the inner sealing ring 85 and the bracket 1 .

[0082] Reference Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 A wafer adsorption in place detection mechanism 78 is detachably fixed on the protection seat 7; the lower end of the wafer adsorption in place detection mechanism 78 is connected to the air groove B75.

[0083] The wafer adsorption detection mechanism 78 includes a fixing plate 781, an overflow nozzle 782 and a positioning bolt 785; The fixing plate 781 is detachably fixed on the protection seat 7 by means of positioning bolts 785; An overflow nozzle 782 is slidably provided on the fixed plate 781; A spring 783 is provided on the overflow nozzle 782 ; a rubber ring 784 is provided below the spring 783 on the overflow nozzle 782 .

[0084] The bracket 1 is provided with an air path D101 and an air path E102; the air path D101 and the air path E102 are connected; one end of the air path D101 corresponds to the overflow nozzle 782; the lower end of the air path E102 is connected to the side cavity 81; the upper end of the air path E102 is detachably fixed with a sealing plug.

[0085] In this technical solution, when the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 fixes the part to be ground 4 by negative pressure adsorption, the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 contacts the lower end of the overflow nozzle 782 and gradually pushes the overflow nozzle 782 upward, so that the side cavity 81 is connected with the air groove A74, the air groove C76 and the main cavity 82, and the air pressure is uniform; the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 evenly presses various parts of the part to be ground 4 to improve the grinding effect. Maintain the gas pressure inside the device within an appropriate range. During the grinding process, the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 fixes the part to be ground 4 by negative pressure adsorption. The rubber ring 784 is used to enhance the sealing effect and prevent gas leakage, thereby improving the working efficiency and performance of the air valve 78.

[0086] The working principle of a grinding device of the present invention is as follows: first, the part to be ground 4 is placed under the airbag rubber diaphragm 8, and the protective seat 7 is moved downward by the air pressure of the external device, so that the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 contacts the part to be ground 4, and then the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 is adsorbed and fixed by the external device and the vacuum air path 31 (the pressure plate 73 presses the middle part of the part to be ground 4, and the edge part of the part to be ground 4 is pressed by the side pressure block 9); the pressure in the side cavity 81 and the main cavity 82 is different; when the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 fixes the part to be ground 4 by negative pressure adsorption, the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 contacts the lower end of the overflow nozzle 782, and gradually pushes the overflow nozzle 782 upward, and the overflow nozzle 782 is pushed upward, so that the side cavity 81 is connected with the air groove A74, the air groove C76 and the main cavity 82, and the air pressure is uniform; the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 is uniformly pressed on various parts of the part to be ground 4, so as to improve the grinding effect. The entire device and the part to be ground 4 are driven by the external device to rotate for grinding. After grinding, the part to be ground 4 is separated from the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 through the compressed air circuit 32. Since the connecting groove 751 connects the air groove A74, the air groove B75 and the air groove C76, the part to be ground 4 can be separated from the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 quickly and evenly to avoid damage to the part to be ground 4 due to uneven force during separation. It is convenient to remove the part to be ground 4 and then replace it with a new part to be ground for grinding. The combined design of the protective seat 7 and the edge pressure block 9 can ensure that during the grinding process of the part to be ground, especially for the part to be ground with a trimming notch, the grinding pressure can be more evenly distributed on the surface of the part to be ground. The top pressure of the edge pressure block 9 on the edge of the part to be ground can compensate for the uneven grinding pressure caused by the notch, reduce the inconsistent thickness of the surface of the part to be ground after grinding, and thus improve the flatness of the part to be ground and the quality of subsequent processes.

[0087] The present invention uses the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 made of highly elastic, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, and fixes the part to be ground 4 by negative pressure adsorption, thereby ensuring stability and uniformity during the grinding process. The softness of the airbag rubber diaphragm 8 helps to reduce stress concentration and damage during the grinding process, and protects the integrity and performance of the part to be ground. The edge of the part to be ground 4 is pressed by the edge pressure block 9, thereby avoiding the problem that when grinding the part to be ground with a cut edge, the airbag membrane exceeds the thickness of the wafer and contacts the grinding liquid and the grinding platform due to the failure to seal the edge or excessive pressure; the grinding quality and yield rate are improved. The device has strong adaptability and can grind the part to be ground with a cut edge. The device can adsorb, fix and grind the part to be ground with a cut edge, can apply greater pressure, and will not cause the airbag membrane to exceed the thickness of the wafer or contact the grinding liquid and the grinding platform due to the failure to seal the edge or excessive pressure. The removal rate can be improved and the production efficiency can be improved. Its scope of application and flexibility are expanded.
