Based on the embodiments provided in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present application.

It can be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this application can be combined with other embodiments.

[0050] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example: a component or device including one or more parts is not limited to the one or more parts listed, but optionally includes one or more parts that are not listed but inherent to the exemplified product, or one or more parts that it should have based on the described function.

[0051] The present application provides a motion adjustment mechanism that reduces motion errors and improves motion accuracy. The motion adjustment mechanism can be applied to structures including but not limited to wafer detection systems, circuit board detection systems and other devices that require high motion accuracy. The following embodiments are described by taking the motion adjustment mechanism set in a wafer detection system as an example.

[0052] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the present application provides a motion adjustment mechanism 100.

[0053] The motion adjustment mechanism 100 includes a rotating assembly 10. Optionally, the motion adjustment mechanism 100 includes a first carrier plate 11 and a first cover plate 12. The rotating assembly 10 is disposed on the first carrier plate 11, and the first cover plate 12 is fixedly covered with the first carrier plate 11. The first cover plate 12 is provided with a plurality of window areas. A portion of the rotating assembly 10 can extend through the window area of ​​the first cover plate 12.

[0054] See also Figure 3 The rotating assembly 10 includes a rotating driving member 13 , a rotating screw 14 , a rotating connecting assembly 15 , a rotating nut seat 16 and a rotating seat 17 .

[0055] Optionally, the rotary drive member 13 includes but is not limited to an electric motor, a motor, etc. In this embodiment, the rotary drive member 13 is a stepping motor. Optionally, the rotary drive member 13 is disposed on the first carrying plate 11.

[0056] One end of the rotating screw 14 is connected to the rotating driving member 13, and the other end of the rotating screw 14 is a free end 141. The rotating screw 14 extends along a first direction.

[0057] One end of the rotating screw 14 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the rotating drive member 13. The rotating drive member 13 is used to drive the rotating screw 14 to rotate.

[0058] The other end of the rotating screw 14 is a free end 141 , so the other end of the rotating screw 14 can have a certain degree of freedom of swing in the third direction X. The free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 is spaced apart from other structures.

[0059] The rotary connection assembly 15 is connected between the rotary screw 14 and the rotary seat 17 .

[0060] See also Figure 3 The rotary connection assembly 15 includes a screw connection 151, a connection sleeve 152 and at least one connection bearing 153. The screw connection 151, the connection sleeve 152 and the connection bearing 153 are connected in sequence.

[0061] The screw connector 151 is coaxially arranged with the rotating screw 14. The screw connector 151 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating screw 14. The screw connector 151 is threadedly connected with the rotating screw 14. The extending direction of the connecting sleeve 152 intersects with the extending direction of the rotating screw 14.

[0062] The rotating screw 14 penetrates the connecting sleeve 152 along the first direction Y. The rotating screw 14 penetrates the connecting sleeve 152 along the radial direction of the connecting sleeve 152 .

[0063] The connecting sleeve 152 extends along the second direction Z. The second direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction Y. The connecting bearing 153 is disposed at at least one end of the connecting sleeve 152 along the second direction Z. The connecting bearing 153 is disposed at one end of the connecting sleeve 152 or at both ends.

[0064] The rotating nut seat 16 is arranged along the third direction X. At least one end of the rotating nut seat 16 along the second direction Z is rotatably connected to the connecting bearing 153. When the number of the connecting bearing 153 is one, the rotating nut seat 16 is connected to the connecting sleeve 152 of the rotating connection assembly 15 through the connecting bearing 153.

[0065] In this embodiment, the number of connecting bearings 153 is two, and the rotating nut seat 16 connects the two connecting bearings 153 by rotating at both ends along the second direction Z, so that the rotating nut seat 16 and the connecting sleeve 152 of the rotating connection assembly 15 rotate in a plane, thereby improving the rotation stability and reducing the problem of unstable rotation or jamming.

[0066] Optionally, the first direction Y and the third direction X are two perpendicular directions parallel to the bearing surface of the first bearing plate 11 , and the second direction Z is a direction perpendicular to the bearing surface of the first bearing plate 11 .

[0067] The rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 are spaced apart from each other along the third direction X. The rotating seat 17 is connected to the other end of the rotating nut seat 16 .

[0068] The rotating seat 17 is disposed on the first supporting plate 11 , and the other end of the rotating nut seat 16 is connected to a side surface of the rotating seat 17 .

[0069] The rotary drive member 13 drives the rotary screw 14 to rotate (forward and reverse), and the rotary connection assembly 15 moves along the axial direction (back and forth) of the rotary screw 14 under the rotation of the rotary screw 14 to drive the rotary nut seat 16 and the rotary seat 17 to rotate (clockwise or counterclockwise).

[0070] In a general connection structure between a screw and a turntable, since the screw moves linearly along the first direction Y, the connection structure moves along the first direction Y driven by the screw. Since the turntable rotates, the connection structure rotates with the turntable, and the distance between the connection position between the connection structure and the turntable and the screw changes. Therefore, the connection structure needs to have a degree of freedom along the third direction X to absorb this distance change and avoid interfering with the movement of the turntable. For example, the connection structure needs to be provided with bar holes in the third direction X, and these structural designs may increase motion errors. For example, the size error of the parts in the third direction X of the connection structure, the assembly error of the parts, the size error of the parts in the first direction Y of the connection structure, and the assembly error of the parts are superimposed, resulting in poor angle control accuracy of the turntable, which in turn leads to detection errors or wafer damage in wafer testing.

[0071] In the motion adjustment mechanism 100 provided by the present application, since the other end of the rotating screw 14 is a free end 141, the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 can be deflected in the third direction X. When the rotating nut seat 16 rotates along with the rotating seat 17, the distance between the end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 along the third direction X gradually changes. For example, the distance between the end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 along the third direction X gradually increases. At this time, the rotating screw 14 is subjected to the pulling force of the rotating nut seat 16, and the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 gradually deviates toward the side where the rotating seat 17 is located under the pulling force, thereby compensating for the gradual change in the distance between the end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 along the third direction X, so that the distance between the end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the end of the rotating screw 14 connected to the rotating seat 17 remains unchanged.

[0072] For another example, the distance between one end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 along the third direction X gradually decreases. At this time, the rotating screw 14 is subjected to the thrust of the rotating nut seat 16, and the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 gradually shifts toward the side away from the rotating seat 17 under the thrust, thereby compensating for the problem of the gradually decreasing distance between one end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and the rotating screw 14 along the third direction X, so that the distance between one end of the rotating nut seat 16 connected to the rotating seat 17 and one end connected to the rotating screw 14 remains unchanged.

[0073] In the present application, the movement trajectory of the position where the rotating nut seat 16 is connected to the rotating screw 14 is roughly arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped circle is close to or is the rotation center of the rotating seat 17.

[0074] Compared with the connection structure of two moving free ends, the motion adjustment mechanism 100 provided in the present application only requires a rotating connection component 15 with one degree of motion freedom (the free end 141 in the first direction Y) to rotate with the rotating nut seat 16 to achieve the connection between the rotating screw 14 and the rotating seat 17, thereby reducing the number of rotating connection components 15, and further reducing the assembly errors between the various structural parts in the rotating connection component 15, reducing motion errors, and improving motion accuracy.

[0075] Optionally, the motor seat of the rotary drive member 13 is fixed to the side after the first carrier plate 11 and the first cover plate 12 are covered. The motor seat of the rotary drive member 13 can be bent in an L shape to lock the first carrier plate 11 and the first cover plate 12 in the third direction X and the first direction Y.

[0076] After the first cover plate 12 is closed, the rotating screw 14 , the rotating connection assembly 15 , and the rotating nut seat 16 can be arranged in the covering space between the first supporting plate 11 and the first cover plate 12 , and the table surface of the rotating seat 17 extends out from the window of the first cover plate 12 .

[0077] Optional, see Figure 3 The rotating connection assembly 15 also includes a nut assembly 154.

[0078] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The nut assembly 154 includes a first nut 1541, a second nut 1542, and an elastic member 1543 connected between the first nut 1541 and the second nut 1542. The elastic member 1543 is in a compressed state and abuts between the first nut 1541 and the second nut 1542 along the axial direction of the rotating screw 14.

[0079] The elastic member 1543 abuts between the first nut 1541 and the second nut 1542 along the first direction Y, so that the first nut 1541 and the second nut 1542 have abutment force in the first direction Y, reducing the assembly gap between the first nut 1541 and the second nut 1542, making the first nut 1541 and the rotating screw 14 fit tightly, making the second nut 1542 and the rotating screw 14 fit tightly, reducing the transmission delay and lag caused by the gap between the rotating screw 14 and the nut assembly 154, and further improving the motion control accuracy.

[0080] One end of the second nut 1542 away from the first nut 1541 is threadedly connected to one end of the screw connector 151 .

[0081] The other end of the screw connector 151 passes through the connecting sleeve 152 and is connected to the connecting sleeve 152 .

[0082] The screw connector 151 includes a plurality of parts with different radial dimensions. The radial dimension of the other end of the screw connector 151 is small, and can be inserted into the connecting sleeve 152 and fixedly connected with the connecting sleeve 152 .

[0083] Optional, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting sleeve 152 includes a first end sleeve 1521, an intermediate sleeve 1522 and a second end sleeve 1523 arranged in sequence along the second direction Z. The radial dimension of the intermediate sleeve 1522 is larger than the radial dimension of the first end sleeve 1521 and also larger than the radial dimension of the second end sleeve 1523. The intermediate sleeve 1522 has a radial through hole. The other end of the screw connector 151 is sleeved on the rotating screw 14 and is also inserted into the radial through hole of the intermediate sleeve 1522.

[0084] Optionally, the number of the connecting bearings 153 is two. The two connecting bearings 153 are respectively arranged at two ends of the connecting sleeve 152 along the second direction Z. Further, the two connecting bearings 153 are respectively sleeved on the outer circumference of the first end tube 1521 and the second end tube 1523 .

[0085] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4The end of the rotating nut seat 16 close to the rotating connection assembly 15 includes a first connecting arm 161 and a second connecting arm 162. The first connecting arm 161 and the second connecting arm 162 are spaced apart along the second direction Z. The first connecting arm 161 is rotatably connected to the connecting sleeve 152 via a connecting bearing 153. Specifically, a connecting bearing 153 is disposed in a through hole of the first connecting arm 161. The first end tube 1521 is fixed by screws, and a connecting bearing 153 is fixed.

[0086] The second connecting arm 162 is rotatably connected to the connecting sleeve 152 via another connecting bearing 153. Specifically, another connecting bearing 153 is disposed in a through hole of the second connecting arm 162. The second end tube 1523 is fixed by screws, and the other connecting bearing 153 is fixed.

[0087] Optionally, when the rotating seat 17 rotates to a first angle, the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 is located at a first position.

[0088] When the rotating seat 17 rotates to a second angle, the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 is located at a second position. The first position and the second position are spaced apart in the third direction X.

[0089] In other words, when the rotating seat 17 rotates to different angles, the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14 will be offset along the third direction X to absorb the distance difference along the third direction X caused by the rotation of the rotating seat 17, and there is no need to additionally set up a distance absorption structure along the third direction X in the rotating connection assembly 15 to reduce problems such as structural preparation tolerance and assembly tolerance caused by the increase in the number of structures.

[0090] Optional, see Figure 5 The motion adjustment mechanism 100 further includes a rotation sensing element 18 , a first sensor 191 and a second sensor 192 .

[0091] The rotating sensing member 18 is connected to the rotating seat 17. Optionally, the rotating sensing member 18 may be a sensing sheet. The present application does not specifically limit the position of the rotating sensing member 18. The rotating sensing member 18 rotates with the rotating seat 17. The rotating sensing member 18 rotates from a first rotation position to a second rotation position with the rotating seat 17.

[0092] The first sensor 191 and the second sensor 192 are arranged outside the rotating seat 17 and do not rotate with the rotating seat 17. The first sensor 191 and the second sensor 192 are arranged at intervals along an arc parallel to the rotation arc of the rotating seat 17. Optionally, the first sensor 191 and the second sensor 192 are arranged on the first cover plate 12. One end of the rotation sensing member 18 extends out of the area where the rotating seat 17 is located.

[0093] The first sensor 191 feeds back a detection signal when the rotation sensing member 18 is located at the first rotation position. The second sensor 192 feeds back a detection signal when the rotation sensing member 18 is located at the second rotation position.

[0094] Optionally, the first sensor 191 and the second sensor 192 are both micro photoelectric sensors. For example, the first sensor 191 includes a transmitter and a receiver arranged in sequence along the second direction Z. A detection area is between the transmitter and the receiver. When the detection area is not blocked, the signal emitted by the transmitter is received by the receiver. When the detection area is blocked, the receiver cannot receive the signal emitted by the transmitter.

[0095] Optional, see Figure 5 When the rotating seat 17 rotates to the first position, the rotating sensing element 18 is located at the first rotation position. When the first sensor 191 detects that the signal is blocked, it means that a part of the rotating sensing element 18 is located in the detection area of ​​the first sensor 191, and it is judged that the rotating sensing element 18 is located at the first rotation position and the rotating seat 17 rotates to the first position.

[0096] See also Figure 6 When the rotating seat 17 rotates to the second position, the rotating sensing element 18 is located at the second rotation position. When the second sensor 192 detects that the signal is blocked, it means that a part of the rotating sensing element 18 is located in the detection area of ​​the second sensor 192, and it is judged that the rotating sensing element 18 is located at the second rotation position, and the rotating seat 17 rotates to the second position.

[0097] In this embodiment, by providing the first sensor 191 , the second sensor 192 , and the rotation sensing element 18 , the rotation angle of the rotating base 17 can be detected to determine whether the rotating base 17 has rotated to the maximum rotation angle position.

[0098] Optionally, the positions of the first sensor 191 and the second sensor 192 are both adjustable, for example, they are fixed in different mounting holes to adjust the rotation angle of the rotating seat 17 .

[0099] Optionally, the first position is the starting position of the rotating seat 17, at which time the connecting sleeve 152 is located at the third position. The second position is the end position of the rotating seat 17, at which time the connecting sleeve 152 is located at the fourth position.

[0100] Optional, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the rotating seat 17 is located at the middle position between the first position and the second position, the rotating sensing member 18 is located at the middle position between the first rotation position and the second rotation position. At this time, the connecting sleeve 152 is located at the middle position between the third position and the fourth position, and the extending direction of the connecting sleeve 152 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the rotating screw 14. In this embodiment, when the rotating seat 17 moves to the first position or the second position, the rotating screw 14 will deflect to different sides respectively, but the amplitude of the inner side deflection is small, which reduces the deflection amount of the rotating screw 14.

[0101] Optionally, when the rotating seat 17 is located at the first position, the rotating sensing component 18 is located at the first rotation position. At this time, the connecting sleeve 152 is located at the third position, and the extension direction of the connecting sleeve 152 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the rotating screw 14. When the rotating seat 17 is located at the second position, the rotating sensing component 18 is located at the second rotation position. At this time, the connecting sleeve 152 is located at the fourth position, and the fourth position is close to the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14. In this embodiment, when the rotating seat 17 moves to the first position or the second position, the rotating screw 14 all swings to the same side. Since the swing position is close to the free end 141 of the rotating screw 14, it is relatively easy for the rotating screw 14 to swing.

The wafer to be inspected is carried on the lifting platform 21, and before the probe assembly 310 inspects the wafer to be inspected, the motion adjustment mechanism 100 adjusts the rotation angle of the lifting platform 21, so that the wafer to be inspected carried on the lifting platform 21 moves to the test position, so that the probe assembly 310 can inspect the wafer to be inspected.

[0174] Optionally, the wafer to be inspected may also be a circuit board or the like.

[0175] In the terminology of the present application, the wafer to be inspected is moved to a test position, that is, the area of ​​the wafer to be inspected that needs to be inspected is set corresponding to the tip of the probe assembly 310, so that the tip of the probe assembly 310 is in physical contact with the wafer to be inspected and electrically connected to test the performance of the wafer to be inspected.

[0176] The wafer detection system provided by the present application has a free end 141 at the other end of the rotating screw 14 in the motion adjustment mechanism 100. The free end 141 of the rotatable screw 14 can be deflected in the third direction X. Only a rotating connection component 15 with one degree of freedom of motion and a rotating nut seat 16 are required to realize the connection between the rotating screw 14 and the rotating seat 17. Compared with the connection structure with two free ends of motion, the number of connection structures is reduced, thereby reducing the errors between the various structural parts in the connection structure, reducing motion errors, and improving motion accuracy. The motion adjustment accuracy of the sample stage (rotating seat 17) is high, which reduces the damage to the wafer caused by the tip of the probe, and also improves the accuracy and efficiency of wafer detection.

[0177] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and cannot be understood as limitations on the present application. Ordinary technicians in the field can change, modify, replace and modify the above embodiments within the scope of the present application, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the scope of protection of the present application.
