Among them, high-density polyethylene is very suitable for use as the material of the elastic tube 58 due to its higher strength and toughness.
[0053] According to an optional implementation of the present invention, the spacings between adjacent permanent magnets 28 are equal.
[0054] Implementation process: Place the wafer body for manufacturing the image sensor on the top wall of the processing table 2, the lower wafer 23 and the top wall of the processing table 2 are against each other, turn on the motor 4, the output shaft of the motor 4 drives the bevel gear 16 and the spur gear 17 to rotate, the spur gear 17 drives the rack 8 and the pressure plate 9 to move downward, so that the pressure plate 9 presses and fixes the upper wafer 22, and the motor 4 stops running. The motor 4 can be set as a brake motor to keep the pressure plate 9 pressing and fixing the upper wafer 22.
[0055] The cylinder 34 is turned on to extend the piston rod 35, and the piston rod 35 drives the mounting seat 31, the transmission gear plate 30, the protruding block 33, the knife body 36, and the permanent magnet 40 to move leftward. The transmission gear plate 30 and the spur gear 29 are meshed to drive the spur gear 29 to rotate, and the spur gear 29 drives the connecting gear plate 20 to move rightward, so that the wiping belt 18 is separated from the bonding interface 24 and moves to the right of the bonding interface 24. The wedge block 1 41 pushes the wedge seat 42 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 3 43 and move down along the guide plate 44. The wiping belt 18 moves down to below the bottom wall of the lower wafer 23, so that the knife body 36 can be inserted into the bonding interface 24, and then the knife body 3 6 is inserted into the bonding interface 24 to generate a bonding crack at the bonding interface 24. When the protruding block 33 moves to the left, it will push the wedge block 2 62 to overcome the elastic member 5 63 and move upward, so that the blocking piece 60 moves upward to release the blockage of the liquid channel 2 54. The horizontal section of the liquid transfer block 56 enters the liquid guide groove 38 and abuts against the inner wall of the liquid guide groove 38. The solution in the liquid cavity 53 passes through the liquid channel 2 54, the elastic tube 58, the liquid channel 3 57, the liquid channel 1 39, and the liquid outlet channel 37 to enter the bonding crack. When the protruding block 33 moves to the left, it will push the liquid transfer block 56 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 4 59 and move to the left, so that the solution has enough time to flow out into the bonding crack.
[0056] Then the piston rod 35 is retracted, and after the protruding block 33 is separated from the wedge block 2 62, the plug 60 re-blocks the liquid channel 2 54 to prevent the solution from flowing out and causing waste, the wedge block 1 41 is separated from the wedge seat 42, and the wedge seat 42 moves up and resets under the elastic force of the elastic member 3 43, and the wiping belt 18 moves up to the right of the bonding interface 24, and the transmission gear plate 30 drives the spur gear 2 29 to reverse, so that the connecting gear plate 20 moves to the left, and the wiping belt 18 and the bonding interface 24 are against each other, so as to absorb the excess solution. When the permanent magnet 3 32 moves past the permanent magnet 2 28, one of the permanent magnets 3 32 will press the permanent magnet 2 28 on one of the permanent magnets 28. The other permanent magnet three 32 will attract the permanent magnet two 28 on the other permanent magnet two 28. When the permanent magnet three 32 moves between the two permanent magnets two 28, the connecting tooth plate 20 will be reset under the elastic force of the elastic member two 26. Repeating the above principle will cause the two slots 21 to move back and forth, and the wiping belt 18 will also move back and forth, so that the wiping belt 18 will wipe the bonding interface 24 back and forth to absorb excess solution and improve the absorption quality. The permanent magnet three 32 moves to the right of the rightmost permanent magnet two 28 and then stops moving. The two slots 21 stop moving and reset, and the spur gear two 29 resets to below the insert 16.
[0057] The data of bonding cracks on the wafer body are measured and recorded using existing measuring equipment, so as to calculate the bonding force of the wafer body using existing technology.
[0058] Finally, the electromagnet 13 and the motor 4 are started to generate magnetic repulsion to the permanent magnet 15. The permanent magnet 15 and the insert 16 overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 14 and move downward. The insert 16 and the top wall of the roller 17 are against each other. The piston rod 35 is reversed, and the pressure plate 9 moves upward to release the pressing and fixing of the wafer body. The rotating rod 11 drives the insert 16 to rotate. After the insert 16 rotates to align with the slot 21, the insert 16 is inserted into the slot 21 under the elastic force of the elastic member 14, thereby driving one of the rollers 17 to rotate. One of the rollers 17 receives the wiping tape 18, and the other roller 17 releases the wiping tape 18, so that the wetted part of the wiping tape 18 leaves the bonding interface 24, and the clean part of the wiping tape 18 is against the bonding interface 24, so that the subsequent wiping tape 18 absorbs the excess solution on the other wafer body, moves the wafer body away from the processing table 2, and uses the same principle to test the bonding force of other wafer bodies.
[0059] The depth of insertion of the blade body 36 into the bonding interface 24 can be controlled by controlling the extension degree of the piston rod 35. The user can turn the handle 52 to rotate the threaded rod 51 in the threaded channel 48, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the liquid tank 49 to facilitate adjusting the depth to which the blade body 36 is inserted into the bonding interface 24 at which the liquid tank 49 starts to supply liquid.
[0060] The present invention can automatically press and fix the wafer body and release the press and fixation, can automatically insert the knife body 36 into the bonding interface 24, so as to generate a bonding crack on the bonding interface 24, and automatically inject a proper amount of solution into the bonding crack, and then automatically use the wiping tape 18 to absorb the excess solution, so that the existing measuring equipment can accurately measure the data of the bonding crack on the wafer body, calculate the wafer bonding force, and improve the test efficiency. It can also automatically replace the clean part of the wiping tape 18 with the bonding interface 24.
[0061] The components, modules, mechanisms and devices not described in detail in the present invention are all universal standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art, and their structures and principles can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, rather than to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
