[0045] Existing wafer bonding clamping equipment usually uses a complex clamping mechanism to fix the upper wafer and the lower wafer. The operation is cumbersome and costly. It is not convenient for the subsequent process transfer of the clamping mechanism, and it is difficult to realize the vacuuming technology of the wafer gap before bonding in the clamping mechanism. During the vacuuming process of the chamber, the upper and lower wafers are in contact in advance, which easily leads to the generation of bubbles in the bonding layer, and the process yield is not high.

After the upper wafer falls to the spacer 21, the lower chuck 21 descends to a safe position, and the second special-shaped push rod 18 is driven by the cylinder assembly to rotate around the connection between it and the fixed seat 12 as the center of a circle. When the second special-shaped push rod 18 rotates, it drives the pressure rod upper seat 28 and the pressure rod 26 to move along the radial direction of the lower chuck 21 toward the center of the lower chuck 21 through the adapter block 30. The pressure wheel 25 fixes the upper and lower wafers, and then the fixing of the fixing part to the lower chuck 21 is released, and the lower chuck 21 can be taken away manually.

[0047] See also Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the supporting positioning member includes two positioning pins 4 and two suction cup seats 5, the two positioning pins 4 and the two suction cup seats 5 are evenly arranged on the chassis seat 3, and two positioning holes corresponding to the two positioning pins 4 are opened on the lower chuck 21.

[0049] The guide wheel frame 8 connected to the moving end of the first lifting cylinder 10 is located at the bottom of the first special-shaped push rod 16. When the moving end of the first lifting cylinder 10 is extended, the guide wheel frame 8 and the guide wheel shaft 7 connected thereto drive the guide wheel 6 to move, and the guide wheel 6 pushes the first special-shaped push rod 16, and the first special-shaped push rod 16 rotates with the connection between it and the fixed seat 12 as the center of the circle;

[0050] The guide wheel frame 8 connected to the moving end of the second lifting cylinder 11 is located at the bottom of the second special-shaped push rod 18. When the moving end of the second lifting cylinder 11 is extended, the guide wheel 6 is driven to move through the guide wheel frame 8 and the guide wheel shaft 7 connected thereto.

[0052] According to the different thickness of the adhesive layer of the upper wafer, in order to avoid the generation of bubbles in the bonding adhesive layer between the upper and lower wafers, the thickness of the spacer 21 can be selected in different specifications of 0.5mm-1mm;

[0053] The end of the clamp assembly's pressure rod 26 uses a guide wheel 6, which helps to avoid slippage of the upper wafer caused by hard contact.

[0056] In one embodiment of the present invention, a contoured boss based on the wafer shape is processed in the center of the lower chuck 21, and its processing accuracy can be within 0.1mm, ensuring the manual wafer placement constraint function. Vacuum air ducts for adsorbing wafers are distributed inside the lower chuck 21 and the upper chuck 1.

[0057] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the pressure rod 26 and the spacer 21 from generating large deflection warping when the upper and lower wafers are respectively attached, a first spring sheet 19 is fixedly mounted on the spacer 20, and a portion of the first spring sheet 19 is located at the upper portion of the spacer 21. A second spring sheet 27 is fixedly mounted on the upper portion of the pressure rod 26 to increase the stiffness of the pressure rod 26 and the spacer 21.

[0058] See also Figures 3 to 5In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid the influence of mechanism instability caused by instantaneous impact force and reduce friction, the first special-shaped push rod 16 and the second special-shaped push rod 18 are both wedge-shaped in design at one end away from the fixed seat 12, and are matched with the guide wheel 6 in the cylinder assembly.
