Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to chip processing, and in particular to a coating and cleaning module of laser processing equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the semiconductor industry, the integration of chips continues to increase, and the wafer manufacturing process is becoming more and more stringent. In the semiconductor cutting process, in order to ensure the cutting quality and subsequent product performance. The role of the coating and cleaning platform is becoming more and more important. Usually before cutting, the product will be sprayed with deionized water or other solutions to clean the surface of the product to remove dust particles, metal impurities and other pollution. Then a layer of protective liquid will be evenly coated on the surface of the wafer to prevent the debris generated during the cutting process from scratching the surface. At the same time, it also increases the strength of the wafer, reduces the risk of cracking, and further improves the quality and yield of the chip. The spin coating method is usually used to control the speed and time of rotation to achieve the required coating thickness.

[0003] After massive searches, it was found that the existing Chinese patent announcement number is CN217432156U, which discloses a coating and cleaning all-in-one machine, which includes a stainless steel shell, a chassis and a bottom plate from top to bottom. A spindle rotation mechanism is arranged in the middle position of the chassis along the Z-axis direction. The spindle rotation mechanism includes a spindle rotation motor, a stage transfer substrate and a high-speed adsorption rotating stage from bottom to top. The spindle rotation mechanism is respectively provided with a first swing arm and a second swing arm in the stainless steel shell on both sides of the Y-axis direction. Integrating coating and cleaning into one device reduces handling, and the speed of coating and cleaning can be adjusted to meet uniformity; the present invention can send the processed products to the outside of the device to wait for handling through the stage lifting cylinder, so that one device can take into account different functions and different products.

[0004] In summary, the problems existing in the prior art are:

[0005] 1. Since the entire rotating stage needs to be vacuum-adsorbed, a self-made hollow rotating air shaft is also used between the rotating stage and the motor. Although the hollow air shaft seals the rotating shaft with an oil seal to prevent vacuum leakage, the oil seal life is still not long enough in long-term high-speed rotation, and the stability is average. As a consumable, the oil seal is more troublesome to replace, and many parts need to be removed. Subsequent attempts to use standard magnetic fluid to replace the central axis have improved stability, but the magnetic fluid has requirements for the gas pressure passing through, and needs to be used with a pressure reducing valve, and the overall volume is large and the weight is heavy.

[0006] 2. In the existing coating cleaning process, two cylinders are used to drive the spring curtain to seal the cavity. Since the humidity in the cavity is very high, the life of the cylinder is short in a humid environment.

[0007] In view of the above-mentioned defects, the designers have actively carried out research and innovation in order to create a coating and cleaning module for laser processing equipment to make it more valuable for industrial use. Summary of the invention

[0036] like Figure 1 to Figure 4As shown, a coating and cleaning module of laser processing equipment includes a bottom plate, a chassis 12 and a stainless steel shell 5 from bottom to top. The chassis 12 is installed on the bottom plate through a plurality of support columns 6. An adsorption rotating platform 2 is installed in the middle of the stainless steel shell 5, and a plurality of claws 16 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction on the top of the adsorption rotating platform 2. A ventilation and drainage pipe 13 is installed on one side of the stainless steel shell 5. A waterproof shield 17 is installed on the chassis 12 outside the adsorption rotating platform 2. A hollow motor 18 is installed at the bottom of the chassis 12 below the adsorption rotating platform 2, and a high-speed slip ring 20 is installed on the inner side of the hollow motor 18. The driving end at the top of the hollow motor 18 is connected to the adsorption rotating platform 2 above through the high-speed slip ring 20. A vent pipe 19 is installed at the bottom of the high-speed slip ring 20. The high-speed slip ring 20 supports a maximum rotation speed of 10,000 rpm and can achieve a stable high-speed rotation of 3,000 rpm, greatly improving the coating effect and stability. In certain occasions, it can meet the high-speed rotation of 5,000 rpm, improving the ability to develop new processes.

[0037] A lifting cylinder 10 is installed on one side of the bottom of the chassis 12. The lifting cylinder 10 drives the adsorption rotating platform 2 above to move in the vertical direction after passing through the chassis 12. A plurality of sliding guide rods 8 distributed along the vertical direction are installed at the bottom of the chassis 12 through a sliding guide rod sleeve. The top of the sliding guide rod 8 is installed at the bottom of the adsorption rotating platform 2, and a limited position fixing ring 8 is installed at the bottom of the sliding guide rod 8.

[0038] A bottom cover 22 on one side of the bottom of the hollow motor 18 is connected to the chassis 12 via a drag chain 15 , and an origin sensor 21 is installed on the bottom cover 22 .

[0039] A cleaning swing arm 1 and a gluing swing arm 3 are respectively arranged on the chassis 12 on both sides of the adsorption rotating platform 2, and a swing arm motor drive module is installed on the chassis 12 below the cleaning swing arm 1 and the gluing swing arm 3. The swing arm motor drive module includes a swing arm motor 9 and a swing arm coupling 11. The swing arm motor 9 is installed at the bottom of the chassis 12 through a swing arm bracket, and the driving end at the top of the swing arm motor 9 is connected to the cleaning swing arm 1 or the gluing swing arm 3 above through the swing arm coupling 11.

[0040] An acrylic telescopic door 4 is installed on the outer side of the top of the stainless steel shell 5, and a telescopic cylinder 14 is installed outside the stainless steel shell 5 on the front and rear sides below the acrylic telescopic door 4. The telescopic cylinder 14 drives the upper acrylic telescopic door 4 to move in the left and right directions.

[0041] Linear bearing guide rods distributed along the left and right directions are installed on the stainless steel shells 5 on the front and rear sides of the acrylic telescopic door 4. The acrylic telescopic door 4 moves in the left and right directions under the action of the linear bearing guide rods.

[0042] The positional relationship and connection relationship between the components of the present invention are as follows:

[0043] The cleaning swing arm 1, the gluing swing arm 3 and the lifting cylinder 10 are installed on the chassis 12, the chassis 12 is fixed on three support columns 6, the high-speed adsorption rotating platform 2 is connected to the lifting cylinder 10 and three sliding guide rods 7, and the sliding guide rods are installed with a limited fixed ring 8, and the stainless steel shell 5 is fixed to the chassis 13, and then the acrylic telescopic door 4 and the ventilation and drainage pipe 13 are connected to the stainless steel shell 5. The top of the hollow motor 18 is connected to the adsorption rotating platform 2 and the rotating part of the high-speed slip ring 20 through a flange. The bottom of the high-speed slip ring 20 is connected to the ventilation pipe 19.

[0044] Working principle and working process of the present invention:

[0045] First, under the action of the lifting cylinder 10 and the sliding guide rod 7, the adsorption rotating platform 2 is lifted to receive the product. At this time, the vacuum negative pressure is transmitted to the high-speed slip ring 20 through the ventilation pipe 19 and finally transmitted to the adsorption rotating platform 2. When there is a product, the adsorption rotating platform 2 forms a sealed cavity. After reaching the specified negative pressure value, the lifting cylinder 10 controls the entire adsorption rotating platform 2 to descend. After it descends to the right position, the acrylic telescopic door 4 is closed by the cylinder control. During the coating process, the hollow motor 18 rotates at a high speed, thereby driving the adsorption rotating platform 2 to rotate together, and the top of the high-speed slip ring 20 also rotates together. Then the coating swing arm motor 9 rotates to drive the glue coating swing arm 3, and the spraying of the protective liquid is completed under the corresponding process parameters. After the coating is completed, the next step of processing can be entered. After the processing is completed, the equipment is entered for cleaning under the corresponding parameters. During the cleaning process, the external exhaust air discharges the water mist through the ventilation and drainage pipe 13 to avoid water mist splashing and causing damage to other equipment.

[0046] The present invention has better overall integration, is more compact and lightweight, and can be hidden in the central axis in combination with the hollow motor and the high-speed slip ring. Compared with the original rotating part, the height of the rotating part of the existing solution is significantly reduced, greatly improving stability. By optimizing the coated acrylic telescopic door and placing the telescopic cylinder outside the outer cover, the possibility of the cylinder being damp is greatly reduced while reducing costs.
