Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor die bonding equipment, and particularly to a feeding and discharging line body, a die bonder, and a feeding and discharging method. Background Art

[0002] In industries such as electronic manufacturing, the efficient transfer of substrates is a crucial link in large-scale production processes. Traditional substrate transfer line bodies have many problems when dealing with batch substrate transfer.

[0003] The commonly used transfer line body structures in the past were relatively simple, usually a single continuous transfer channel without reasonable area division. When the feeding unit outputs multiple substrates at one time, such a simple structure is difficult to orderly receive, transfer, and output these batch substrates. Due to the lack of transfer and blocking functions set in different areas, substrates are prone to stacking or chaos during the transfer process, unable to meet the large-scale production requirements, and greatly reducing the transfer efficiency and smoothness of the substrates.

[0004] Moreover, traditional line bodies cannot flexibly control the movement of substrates according to production requirements. During the production process, different production processes may require substrates to stay at specific positions or move at specific rhythms, but traditional line bodies lack corresponding selective blocking devices, making it difficult to precisely control the rhythm and position of substrate transfer, thus restricting the diversification of the production process and unable to meet complex and changeable production requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a feeding and discharging line body, a die bonder, and a feeding and discharging method, which can orderly process batch substrates, precisely control the transfer rhythm and position of substrates, improve the transfer efficiency and smoothness, and adapt to diverse production processes.

[0006] To achieve this purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The feeding and discharging line body is used to convey the substrates supplied by the feeding unit. The feeding unit outputs M substrates each time, where M is an integer greater than one. The feeding and discharging line body includes a first area, (M - 1) second areas, a third area, and a fourth area arranged in sequence along a first direction. The first area is provided with a first conveyor and a first blocking unit. The first conveyor is used to receive the substrates output by the feeding unit, and the first conveyor can drive the substrates to move to the next area. The first blocking unit selectively blocks the substrates from moving to the next area. The second area is provided with a second conveyor and a second blocking unit. The second conveyor can drive the substrates to move to the previous area and the next area. The second blocking unit selectively blocks the substrates from moving to the previous area. The third area is provided with a third conveyor and a third blocking unit. The third conveyor is used to drive the substrates to move to the next area. The third blocking unit selectively blocks the substrates from moving to the next area. The fourth area is provided with a fourth conveyor, and the fourth conveyor is used to drive the substrates to be conveyed out of the feeding and discharging line body.

[0008] As an alternative technical solution of the feeding and discharging line body, the first conveyor in the first area and the second conveyor in the first of the second areas are a first conveyor assembly with an integral structure. The first conveyor assembly can drive the substrates to reciprocate along the first direction. The third conveyor in the third area and the fourth conveyor in the fourth area are a second conveyor assembly with an integral structure. The second conveyor assembly is used to drive the substrates to move away from the first conveyor assembly along the first direction.

[0009] As an alternative technical solution of the feeding and discharging line body, the first blocking unit is arranged on the first conveyor assembly. The first blocking unit includes a first control driving unit and a first area in-position sensor. The first area in-position sensor is used to monitor a first stop position. The output end of the first control driving unit can extend into or disengage from the first conveyor assembly, so that the substrates moving towards the second conveyor assembly can be positioned at the first stop position.

[0010] As an alternative technical solution of the feeding and discharging line body, the second blocking unit is arranged on the first conveyor assembly. The second blocking unit includes a second control driving unit and a second area in-position sensor. The second area in-position sensor is used to monitor a second stop position. The output end of the second control driving unit can extend into or disengage from the first conveyor assembly, so that the substrates moving away from the second conveyor assembly can be positioned at the second stop position.

[0011] As an alternative technical solution for the loading and unloading line body, the third blocking unit is arranged on the second conveying component. The third blocking unit includes a third control driving unit and a third area in-place sensor. The third area in-place sensor is used to monitor the third stop position. The output end of the third control driving unit can extend into or disengage from the second conveying component, so that the substrate moving away from the first conveying component can be positioned at the third stop position.

[0012] As an alternative technical solution for the loading and unloading line body, the first conveying component has a first rolling material fixed side and a first rolling material movable side extending along the first direction. A first driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the first rolling material fixed side, and a second driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the first rolling material movable side. The first driving synchronous belt and the second driving synchronous belt are used to carry and convey the substrate; and / or the second conveying component has a second rolling material fixed side and a second rolling material movable side extending along the first direction. A third driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the second rolling material fixed side, and a fourth driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the second rolling material movable side. The third driving synchronous belt and the fourth driving synchronous belt are used to carry and convey the substrate.

[0013] As an alternative technical solution for the loading and unloading line body, the first rolling material movable side can approach or move away from the first rolling material fixed side along the second direction; and / or the second rolling material movable side can approach or move away from the second rolling material fixed side along the second direction; wherein, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and both are in the horizontal plane.

[0014] As an alternative technical solution for the loading and unloading line body, a blanking position sensor is arranged on the second conveying component. The blanking position sensor is used to monitor the substrate located at the output end of the second conveying component.

[0015] A die bonder, used to assemble chips on a substrate. The die bonder includes M die bonding modules and the above-mentioned loading and unloading line body. Each die bonding module includes a chip transfer mechanism, a substrate carrier platform, a chip loading mechanism, a mother and son ring loading and unloading component, and a handling mechanism. Each handling mechanism corresponds to a second area or a third area. The handling mechanism is used to transport the substrate between the substrate carrier platform and the corresponding second area or third area. The substrate carrier platform can carry and drive the substrate to move. A mother and son ring is detachably installed on the chip loading mechanism. The mother and son ring carries chips. The chip loading mechanism can carry and drive the mother and son ring to move. A mother and son ring cartridge is detachably installed on the mother and son ring loading and unloading component. The mother and son ring loading and unloading component is used to transport the mother and son ring between the mother and son ring cartridge and the chip loading mechanism. The chip transfer mechanism is used to transfer the chip from the mother and son ring to the substrate.

[0016] An in-out feeding method, applied to the above-mentioned in-out feeding line body, includes the following steps:

[0017] S1: Using the feeding unit to supply M substrates to the first area;

[0018] S2: Using the first conveyor, the third conveyor, and all the second conveyors to convey the substrates in a direction away from the feeding unit;

[0019] S3: Controlling the first blocking unit, the third blocking unit, and all the second blocking units to work. Using the first blocking unit to block the movement of the substrates in the first area. When there is no substrate in the first second area, transferring one substrate to the first second area, and then continuing to block the movement of the substrates. When there is no substrate in the first area, controlling the second conveyor in the first second area to move towards the feeding unit and blocking it through the corresponding second blocking unit. When the second conveyor in the previous second area moves towards the feeding unit, controlling the second conveyor in the next second area to move towards the feeding unit and blocking it through the corresponding second blocking unit. When there is a substrate in the third area, controlling the third blocking unit to block the movement of the substrate;

[0020] S4: After all the substrates are processed, controlling the first conveyor, the third conveyor, the fourth conveyor, and all the second conveyors to convey the substrates in a direction away from the feeding unit, and controlling all the first blocking units, the third blocking units, and all the second blocking units to stop blocking the substrates.

[0021] Advantages of the present invention:

[0022] By setting different areas, the in-out feeding line body can orderly receive, convey, and output a batch of substrates, improving the transmission efficiency and smoothness of the substrates and meeting the requirements of large-scale production. The conveyors and blocking units are set in each area, and the movement of the substrates can be selectively blocked according to production needs, facilitating the control of the stay and movement of the substrates in different areas, achieving precise control of the conveying rhythm and position of the substrates, avoiding substrate accumulation or chaos, and thus adapting to diverse production processes.

[0023] The die bonder combines M die bonding modules and a feeding and discharging line body. Each component cooperates with each other, enabling die bonding operations on multiple substrates simultaneously, realizing the automated assembly process of chips from the mother and son rings to the substrates, improving the integration and automation level of production, reducing manual intervention, enhancing the production efficiency and capacity of the die bonder, and meeting the requirements of large-scale production. The handling mechanism therein can achieve rapid handling of substrates between different regions and the substrate-carrying platform, ensuring the continuity of the production process. The above structural improvement reduces the waiting time of each component, and the processing time after an alarm or downtime occurs in a certain die bonding module will not affect the other die bonding modules, which helps to improve the working efficiency of the die bonder.

[0024] This feeding and discharging method controls the feeding, conveying, and blocking units step by step, clarifying steps such as feeding, conveying, blocking, and discharging, enabling the substrates to move orderly on the feeding and discharging line body according to a predetermined process, avoiding chaos and collisions of the substrates during the conveying process, and ensuring the continuity and high efficiency of production. During the processing, by controlling the blocking unit, the conveying and blocking units can be flexibly controlled according to the states of the substrates in each region to complete the conveying and positioning of the substrates, coordinating the processing and transmission of the substrates, reducing the waiting time of the substrates during the conveying process, closely matching the feeding and discharging process with the processing procedures, improving the overall production efficiency, and at the same time reducing production errors caused by improper manual operations.

[0059] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Among them, the terms "first position" and "second position" are two different positions. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on" the second feature includes the first feature being directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicating that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature being "below", "under" and "beneath" the second feature includes the first feature being directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicating that the first feature has a lower horizontal height than the second feature.

[0061] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "mounted", "connected" and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.

[0062] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0063] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, this embodiment provides a chip transfer mechanism 200 for transporting chips. The chip transfer mechanism 200 includes a column 201 and a transfer assembly; the transfer assembly is movably connected to the column 201. The transfer assembly includes an assembly base 209 and two pick-and-place units provided on the assembly base 209. One pick-and-place unit is located at the crystal picking position 222, and the other pick-and-place unit is located at the crystal placing position 223. The assembly base 209 can drive the two pick-and-place units to move to swap the positions where the two pick-and-place units are located; the pick-and-place unit located at the crystal picking position 222 is used to pick up chips, and the pick-and-place unit located at the crystal placing position 223 is used to release chips.

[0064] The chip transfer mechanism 200 is provided with a component seat 209 and two pick-and-place units. By swapping the positions of the two pick-and-place units through the component seat 209, one pick-and-place unit can place the chip while the other pick-and-place unit can take the chip synchronously, realizing the parallel execution of the "crystal taking-transfer" and "crystal placing-reset" actions of the two pick-and-place units, compressing the serial process of the traditional single-station operation into a parallel cycle, and the symmetrical station switching design avoids the time loss of the traditional single pick-and-place unit in the process of empty return during the crystal taking and crystal placing process, thereby greatly shortening the cycle time of chip handling, significantly enhancing the continuity of the chip handling process, and improving the overall work efficiency. In addition, the symmetrical layout design of the two pick-and-place units ensures the dynamic balance of the mechanism during the switching process, avoids the positioning error caused by inertia in the traditional rotary handling, and is suitable for the continuous transfer scenario of high-density chip arrays. The above-mentioned structural limitations make the various components of the chip transfer mechanism 200 compactly laid out with clear division of labor, and the components used to supply and place chips can be independent of the chip transfer mechanism 200, which helps to reduce the mutual influence between the solid crystal equipment, simplifies the mechanical movement path of the pick-and-place unit, avoids the complex coordinated movement of multiple components, improves the smoothness of the entire chip processing or assembly process, realizes the simplified design of the specific mechanism, makes the chip handling process more orderly, reduces the complexity and floor space of the mechanism, and reduces the equipment cost and maintenance difficulty.

[0065] In this embodiment, the chip is a Mini LED chip as an example, and the chip transfer mechanism 200 is used to assemble the Mini LED chip onto the substrate 900 .

[0066] In this embodiment, the component seat 209 can rotate relative to the column 201 around the axis of the component seat 209 , the axis of the component seat 209 extends along the vertical direction Z, and the two pick-and-place units are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the component seat 209 .

[0067] The two pick-and-place units are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the component seat 209, which simplifies the position switching path of the pick-and-place units, optimizes the action cycle, and can ensure the position accuracy of the pick-and-place units when switching between the crystal retrieval position 222 and the crystal placement position 223, ensuring the accurate pick-up and release of the chip. The component seat 209 can rotate around the vertical axis so that when the pick-and-place unit rotates and swaps positions, the center of gravity of the mechanism is stable, the movement is smoother, the shaking and error are reduced, and the risk of chip damage is reduced, so that the movement of the pick-and-place unit between the crystal retrieval position 222 and the crystal placement position 223 has good repeatability and consistency, which is conducive to improving the stability of chip handling. The symmetrically distributed pick-and-place units form an inertia compensation effect through rotation, reduce the load fluctuation of the drive components, and this symmetrical structure facilitates mechanical design and control, reducing deviations during movement. In addition, the vertical Z layout reduces the space required for lateral movement, is suitable for high-density production lines, and is compatible with compact equipment structures.

[0068] Further, the pick-and-place unit is slidably disposed on the component base 209 along the vertical direction Z.

[0069] The pick-and-place unit is slidably disposed on the component base 209 along the vertical direction Z, which can adjust the height difference between the pick-and-place unit and the substrate 900, flexibly adjust the height of the pick-and-place unit, control the pick-and-place unit to approach the substrate 900 when picking and placing the chip, and move away from the substrate 900 after picking and placing are completed. By coordinating the sliding lifting and rotating actions, the pick-and-place trajectory is optimized, thereby avoiding the situation of position conflict between the chip and the substrate 900.

[0070] In this embodiment, the pick-and-place unit includes a swing arm 202 and a suction nozzle 215 disposed on the swing arm 202, and the suction nozzle 215 can adsorb and release the chip.

[0071] The pick-and-place unit adopts the structure of the swing arm 202 and the suction nozzle 215. The suction nozzle 215 can adsorb and release the chip. This adsorption type pick-and-place method can provide a reliable adsorption force, facilitate the grasping and releasing of the chip, reduce the damage to the chip, ensure the integrity and quality of the chip, and can accurately complete the transfer of the chip by controlling the adsorption and release actions of the suction nozzle 215. The combined structure of the swing arm 202 and the suction nozzle 215 provides a flexible radial movement range, and the swinging path of the swing arm 202 is controllable, which helps to accurately position and facilitates reaching the crystal picking position 222 and the crystal placing position 223.

[0072] In this embodiment, a voice coil driving unit 210 and a guide rail 211 extending along the vertical direction Z are installed on the component base 209. A sliding member is provided on the swing arm 202, and the sliding member is in sliding fit with the guide rail 211. The output end of the voice coil driving unit 210 is connected to the sliding member to drive the swing arm 202 to move along the vertical direction Z. Specifically, the voice coil driving unit 210 is a motor.

[0073] In an implementation manner of this embodiment, the chip transfer mechanism 200 further includes a gas supply assembly, and the gas supply assembly is used to provide positive pressure and negative pressure to the suction nozzle 215.

[0074] The gas supply assembly provides positive pressure and negative pressure to the suction nozzle 215. The negative pressure can realize the adsorption of the chip, and the positive pressure can be used to assist in releasing the chip, which helps to shorten the cycle of a single operation, ensures the smooth progress of the adsorption and release actions of the suction nozzle 215 on the chip, ensures the stability and reliability of the chip transfer process, reduces the chip dropping rate, and improves the work efficiency and accuracy.

[0075] In another implementation manner of this embodiment, the air supply assembly is only used to provide positive pressure to the nozzle 215, and the chip transfer mechanism 200 completes the adsorption action of the chip through other components. In another implementation manner of this embodiment, the air supply assembly is only used to provide negative pressure to the nozzle 215, and the chip transfer mechanism 200 assists in releasing the chip through other components, or there are no components for assisting in releasing the chip.

[0076] In this embodiment, the chip transfer mechanism 200 further includes a swing arm air circuit mounting seat 220, and the relative position of the swing arm air circuit mounting seat 220 and the column 201 is fixed. The swing arm air circuit mounting seat 220 is located below the component seat 209, and the swing arm air circuit mounting seat 220 has a first air circuit, a second air circuit, a third air circuit, and a fourth air circuit. The first air circuit passes through the first positive pressure solenoid valve 218 to the first negative pressure solenoid valve 216 and is connected to the nozzle 215 on a swing arm 202 to provide positive pressure for the nozzle 215. The second air circuit provides negative pressure for the nozzle 215 on the swing arm 202 through the second negative pressure solenoid valve 217. The third air circuit passes through the second positive pressure solenoid valve 219 to the second negative pressure solenoid valve 217 and is connected to the nozzle 215 on another swing arm 202 to provide positive pressure for the nozzle 215. The fourth air circuit provides negative pressure for the nozzle 215 through the second positive pressure solenoid valve 219.

[0077] A tracheal rotary joint 214 is provided on the component seat 209, and all the above air circuits pass through the tracheal rotary joint 214.

[0078] The components for adsorbing the chip and assisting in releasing the chip are conventional settings in the art, and their specific structures and working principles are common knowledge in the art. They can be set with reference to the prior art. This is not the focus of this embodiment and will not be elaborated here.

[0079] Exemplarily, the nozzle 215 can rotate relative to the swing arm 202 around the axis of the nozzle 215, and the axis of the nozzle 215 extends along the vertical direction Z.

[0080] The nozzle 215 can rotate relative to the swing arm 202 around its vertical axis. The rotation adjustment cooperates with the movement of the swing arm 202 to achieve multi-dimensional attitude control. Thus, during the handling process, according to the angle requirements of chip installation on the substrate 900, the orientation of the chip can be accurately adjusted after picking up the chip. Thereby, the influence of the swing angle of the swing arm 202 is avoided, and further, the requirements for different placement angles during chip assembly are met, enabling the chip to be accurately installed on the substrate 900, thereby improving the quality of die bonding.

[0081] Furthermore, the transfer assembly further includes two self-rotation drive units 212 and two synchronous pulley synchronous belts 213. The self-rotation drive units 212 are fixedly arranged on the component seat 209, and the output end of each self-rotation drive unit 212 is in transmission cooperation with a nozzle 215 through a synchronous pulley synchronous belt 213.

[0082] The rotation drive unit 212 in the transfer component is in driving cooperation with the nozzle 215 through the synchronous pulley and synchronous belt 213, which can accurately control the rotation angle and speed of the nozzle 215, so as to correct the deviation according to the offset rotation during the rotation of the swing arm 202, ensure the accuracy of chip angle adjustment, ensure the accuracy of chip angle adjustment, and further improve the reliability of die bonding. At the same time, the driving mode of the synchronous pulley and synchronous belt 213 can minimize the influence caused by the vertical movement of the pick-and-place unit along the Z direction, ensuring that the rotation drive unit 212 can drive the nozzle 215 to rotate precisely as required while the pick-and-place unit moves up and down. Specifically, the rotation drive unit 212 is a motor.

[0083] In this embodiment, the movement trajectory of the pick-and-place unit between the crystal picking position 222 and the crystal placing position 223 is a semi-circle, and the movement trajectory passes through the capture position. There are two vision capture units provided on the column 201, and each vision capture unit corresponds to a pick-and-place unit for photographing the pick-and-place unit located at the capture position. Specifically, the movement trajectory of the center of the nozzle 215 provided on one pick-and-place unit is the first trajectory 224, and the movement trajectory of the center of the nozzle 215 provided on the other pick-and-place unit is the second trajectory 225.

[0084] The pick-and-place unit moves in a semi-circular arc between the crystal picking position 222 and the crystal placing position 223, and the movement trajectory passes through the capture position. There is a vision capture unit corresponding to the pick-and-place unit provided on the column 201. The vision capture unit can photograph the pick-and-place unit located at the capture position in real time, accurately obtain the position and attitude information of the chip, provide accurate data support for subsequent pick-and-place operations and the rotation operation of the nozzle 215, so as to precisely adjust the movement of the pick-and-place unit, realize the precise positioning of the chip during handling, improve the accuracy of chip handling, and achieve the purpose of deviation correction during the chip transfer process. In addition to monitoring the position and attitude, the vision capture unit can also detect the appearance of the chip and timely discover defects or damages on the chip surface. If a defective chip is detected, it can be promptly fed back to the control system to facilitate timely measures for adjustment or processing, improving the product quality and the yield rate.

[0085] The above structure embeds the vision detection node into the transfer path through trajectory planning, avoiding additional docking time, shortening the chip attitude detection and position correction time, and improving the trajectory detection efficiency. The synchronous matching mechanism of the dual vision capture units and the movement trajectory can capture the chip offset in real time and dynamically correct the release position through the feedback system to ensure that the alignment accuracy when the chip is released meets the packaging requirements.

[0086] Specifically, the visual capture unit is arranged above the transfer component. The two visual capture units are the first visual capture unit 206 and the second visual capture unit 207 respectively. The capture position of the first visual capture unit 206 is arranged on the first track 224. The included angle between the line connecting this capture position and the rotation center and the second direction Y is θ°. The capture position of the second visual capture unit 207 is arranged on the second track 225. The included angle between the line connecting this capture position and the rotation center and the second direction Y is β°.

[0087] In this embodiment, a plurality of die bonding pads are arranged on the substrate 900, and each die bonding pad is adapted to a chip. The pick-and-place unit located at the die placing position 223 can release the chip to the corresponding die bonding pad.

[0088] Furthermore, a first visual monitoring unit 204 and a second visual monitoring unit 205 are further arranged on the column 201. The first visual monitoring unit 204 is used to photograph the chip adsorbed by the pick-and-place unit located at the chip picking position 222, and complete the image recognition and positioning coordinates of the chip. The second visual monitoring unit 205 is used to photograph the die bonding pad corresponding to the chip on the pick-and-place unit located at the die placing position 223, complete the image recognition and positioning coordinates of the die bonding pad, and the detection of the die-bonded chip.

[0089] Both the first visual monitoring unit 204 and the second visual monitoring unit 205 are arranged above the transfer component. Specifically, both the first visual monitoring unit 204 and the second visual monitoring unit 205 are cameras.

[0090] The chip transfer mechanism 200 further includes a rotation driving unit 208. The rotation driving unit 208 is arranged on the column 201, and the output end of the rotation driving unit 208 is fixedly connected to the component seat 209. Specifically, the rotation driving unit 208 is a motor.

The linkage of multiple mechanisms reduces manual intervention, improves the intelligence level of the production line, improves production efficiency, ensures production efficiency and die bonding quality, and meets various needs of die bonding production. At the same time, the transport mechanism cooperates with the feed and discharge line 600 to support the continuous feeding of the substrate 900 and the unloading of the substrate 900 after processing; the parent-child ring loading and unloading assembly 800 cooperates with the chip loading mechanism 500 to support the continuous feeding of the parent-child ring 520 and the recycling of empty parent-child rings 520, thereby improving the utilization rate of the production line.

[0093] Specifically, the chip loading mechanism 500 is used to carry the mother-child ring 520. The chip loading mechanism 500 can locate the position of the chip according to the system algorithm, and drive the mother-child ring 520 to move within the mother-child ring movement area 530 in the horizontal plane.

A second grating reader 411 is fixedly provided on the platform motor mounting plate 405, and the second grating reader 411 is used to feedback the position information of the platform motor mounting plate 405.

[0098] A substrate jig 412 is mounted on the jig mounting base 410. A number of jig adsorption air holes are provided on the substrate jig 412. The bottom ends of the jig adsorption air holes are communicated with a jig vacuum pumping device, and the jig vacuum pumping device is used to adsorb the substrate 900. The jig vacuum pumping device can provide vacuum conduction for the substrate jig 412 to tightly adsorb the substrate 900 on the upper surface of the substrate jig 412.

[0099] In this embodiment, the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other and both are perpendicular to the vertical direction Z.

[0100] As Figures 17 to 20As shown in the figure, the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 is used to carry the mother-daughter rings 520. The mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 includes a cartridge frame 8075. The cartridge frame 8075 has a number of storage spaces evenly distributed along the vertical direction Z. Each storage space is used to store one mother-daughter ring 520. A support unit and a top block 8073 are provided in the storage space. The support unit is used to horizontally carry the mother-daughter ring 520. One end of the support unit is fixedly connected to the cartridge frame 8075, and a stop block 8072 is fixedly provided at the other end. The top block 8073 is elastically connected to the cartridge frame 8075 through a top block elastic member 8074. The top block 8073 can move closer to or away from the stop block 8072 along the moving direction, and the moving direction is parallel to the horizontal plane. The top block elastic member 8074 is used to push the top block 8073 to move towards the stop block 8072. The mother-daughter ring 520 placed in the storage space is clamped between the stop block 8072 and the top block 8073. Specifically, the moving direction is parallel to the first direction X.

[0101] The cartridge frame 8075 of the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 has a number of storage spaces evenly distributed along the vertical direction Z, which can orderly store multiple mother-daughter rings 520 in a limited space, realizing the efficient storage of the mother-daughter rings 520, making full use of the vertical space, improving the space utilization rate, and facilitating the batch management of the mother-daughter rings 520. The support unit is used to horizontally carry the mother-daughter ring 520 to ensure that the mother-daughter ring 520 maintains a stable horizontal state in the storage space, reducing the risk of damage caused by shaking or tilting, and ensuring the storage safety of the mother-daughter ring 520. Through the stop block 8072 and the movable top block 8073, the mother-daughter ring 520 can be firmly clamped between the two, preventing the mother-daughter ring 520 from shifting or shaking in the cartridge and ensuring the stability of storage. The top block 8073 is elastically connected to the cartridge frame 8075 through the top block elastic member 8074 and reciprocates along the moving direction, clamping the mother-daughter ring 520 between the stop block 8072 and the top block 8073 to realize the reliable fixation of the mother-daughter ring 520. When the mother-daughter ring 520 is picked up and placed, the top block elastic member 8074 can play a buffering role to avoid hard damage to the mother-daughter ring 520.

[0102] Specifically, a handle 8078 for easy gripping is provided at the top end of the cartridge frame 8075.

[0103] In this embodiment, one side of the stop block 8072 facing the top block 8073 has a connected pressing surface 80722 and a guiding surface 80721. The pressing surface 80722 is used to fit with the side wall of the mother-daughter ring 520. The guiding surface 80721 is located above the pressing surface 80722, and the guiding surface 80721 and the pressing surface 80722 are arranged at an angle.

[0104] The pressing surface 80722 of the stopper 8072 is in contact with the side wall of the mother-daughter ring 520, which can more accurately limit the movement of the mother-daughter ring 520 in the horizontal direction, improve the positioning accuracy of the mother-daughter ring 520 in the storage space, ensure the position accuracy of the mother-daughter ring 520 in the storage space, and is beneficial to the accuracy of subsequent clamping and use operations. The guiding surface 80721 is located above the pressing surface 80722 and is arranged at an angle with the pressing surface 80722, providing a guiding function for the operation of placing the mother-daughter ring 520 into the storage space, making it easier for the mother-daughter ring 520 to accurately reach the corresponding position in the storage space, reducing the operation difficulty, and improving the convenience and efficiency of placing the mother-daughter ring 520.

[0105] Further, along the vertical direction Z from top to bottom, the guiding surface 80721 is inclined away from the top block 8073.

[0106] The guiding surface 80721 is inclined away from the top block 8073 along the vertical direction Z from top to bottom. When the mother-daughter ring 520 is placed into the storage space from top to bottom, the guiding surface 80721 can guide the mother-daughter ring 520 to slide smoothly to the pressing surface 80722, so that the mother-daughter ring 520 can slide into the storage space more smoothly when being placed, thereby further optimizing the process of placing the mother-daughter ring 520 into the storage space, reducing the jamming and obstruction during the placing process, and improving the smoothness and efficiency of the operation of taking and placing the mother-daughter ring 520.

[0107] In this embodiment, the supporting unit includes at least two supporting bars 8071 arranged at intervals in the second direction Y. The supporting bars 8071 extend along the first direction X, and a stopper 8072 is fixedly connected to each supporting bar 8071. Specifically, there are two supporting bars 8071.

[0108] The design of the supporting unit composed of the supporting bars 8071 arranged at intervals can support the mother-daughter ring 520 from multiple positions, ensure the supporting stability of the mother-daughter ring 520 in the horizontal direction, and prevent the mother-daughter ring 520 from tilting or shaking due to single-point support.

[0109] Exemplarily, a guiding rod 8077 is fixedly connected to the end of the top block 8073 away from the stopper 8072. The guiding rod 8077 is movably connected to the cartridge frame 8075. The guiding rod 8077 passes through the top block elastic member 8074 and is coaxial with the top block elastic member 8074.

[0110] One end of the top block 8073 away from the stop block 8072 is fixedly connected with a guide rod 8077. The guide rod 8077 is movably connected to the cartridge frame 8075 and passes through the top block elastic member 8074 and is coaxial with it, providing precise guidance for the movement of the top block 8073, ensuring the movement accuracy of the top block 8073 in the horizontal direction, ensuring that the reciprocating movement of the top block 8073 in the moving direction is more stable and accurate, avoiding the deviation of the top block 8073 during the movement process, and ensuring the action accuracy of clamping and releasing the mother-daughter ring 520.

[0111] Further, a linear bearing 8076 is fixedly connected to the cartridge frame 8075. The number of linear bearings 8076 is the same as that of the guide rods 8077, and each linear bearing 8076 is in sliding fit with a guide rod 8077.

[0112] A linear bearing 8076 is fixedly connected to the cartridge frame 8075. The linear bearing 8076 is in sliding fit with the guide rod 8077, which can effectively reduce the friction force when the guide rod 8077 moves, make the movement of the top block 8073 smoother and more flexible, and at the same time reduce the wear of the components, improving the operation efficiency and service life of the entire mechanism.

[0113] As Figures 13 to 16 shown, the mother-daughter ring loading and unloading assembly 800 is used to transport the mother-daughter rings 520 in different storage spaces of the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 to the chip loading mechanism 500, and can also carry out the mother-daughter rings 520 in the chip loading mechanism 500 and place them in different storage spaces in the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807. The mother-daughter ring loading and unloading assembly 800 includes a gripper handling module, a cartridge lifting module and the above-mentioned mother-daughter ring cartridge 807. The cartridge lifting module is used to drive the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 along one end in the vertical direction Z, and the gripper handling module can extend into the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 to pick up and place the mother-daughter rings 520.

[0114] The mother-daughter ring loading and unloading assembly 800 includes a gripper handling module, a cartridge lifting module and a mother-daughter ring cartridge 807. The cartridge lifting module can drive the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 to move along the vertical direction Z, and the gripper handling module can extend into the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 to pick up and place the mother-daughter rings 520, realizing the automatic operation of loading and unloading the mother-daughter rings 520, improving the flexibility and production efficiency of loading and unloading, and being able to adapt to different production requirements.

[0115] Further, the gripper handling module includes a gripper handling track 802, a handling lifting drive unit 803, a handling clamping drive unit 804 and two mother-daughter ring grippers 805. The handling lifting drive unit 803 can move relative to the gripper handling track 802 in the horizontal plane. The handling lifting drive unit 803 is used to drive the handling clamping drive unit 804 to move along the vertical direction Z. The handling clamping drive unit 804 can drive the two mother-daughter ring grippers 805 to approach or move away from each other to clamp or release the mother-daughter rings 520.

[0116] The handling lifting drive unit 803 of the jaw handling module can move relative to the jaw handling track 802 in a horizontal plane, and can also drive the handling gripping drive unit 804 to move along the vertical direction Z. The handling gripping drive unit 804 can drive two mother-daughter ring jaws 805 to approach or move away from each other. Through the coordinated work of each drive unit on the jaw handling module, multi-dimensional flexible operation of gripping and handling the mother-daughter ring 520 is achieved, meeting the picking and placing requirements of the mother-daughter ring 520 at different positions and heights, and improving the accuracy and stability of the operation.

[0117] Exemplarily, the cartridge lifting module includes a cartridge lifting track 806, a cartridge clamping drive unit 809, and at least a pair of pressing blocks 810. The cartridge clamping drive unit 809 can move relative to the cartridge lifting track 806 along the vertical direction Z. The pressing blocks 810 are connected to the output end of the cartridge clamping drive unit 809. The cartridge clamping drive unit 809 is used to drive each pair of pressing blocks 810 to approach or move away from each other to clamp or release the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807.

[0118] The cartridge clamping drive unit 809 of the cartridge lifting module can drive each pair of pressing blocks 810 to approach or move away from each other to clamp or release the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807, ensuring the stability of the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 during the lifting process, preventing the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 from shaking or falling, and ensuring the safety and stability of the loading and unloading process.

[0119] Specifically, the cartridge lifting module further includes a first position sensor 808 and a second position sensor 811. The first position sensor 808 is provided on the cartridge clamping drive unit 809 for monitoring whether the mother-daughter ring 520 is stored in each storage space. The second position sensor 811 is provided on the cartridge lifting track 806 for monitoring whether the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 is currently installed on the cartridge lifting module, so as to ensure the monitoring ability of the cartridge lifting module for the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 during the automated movement process.

[0120] When removing the mother-daughter ring 520 from the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807, the following processes are included: using the cartridge lifting module to lift and adjust the target storage space to the corresponding picking position, using the first position sensor 808 to detect that the current storage space has the mother-daughter ring 520, then moving the mother-daughter ring jaws 805 into place, driving the mother-daughter ring jaws 805 to clamp the mother-daughter ring 520 by the handling gripping drive unit 804, and then controlling the mother-daughter ring jaws 805 to move a predetermined distance towards the top block 8073 until the top block 8073 is pushed to the compressed position to avoid position conflicts between the mother-daughter ring 520 and the guiding surface 80721. Subsequently, control the mother-daughter ring cartridge 807 to descend so that the mother-daughter ring 520 is located at the opening of the target storage space and is spaced from the stop block 8072. Finally, the jaw handling module takes out the mother-daughter ring 520.

[0121] When placing the empty mother-daughter ring 520 into the mother-daughter ring magazine 807, the following processes are included: using the magazine lifting module to lift and adjust the target storage space to the corresponding feeding position, using the first position sensor 808 to detect that the current storage space does not have the mother-daughter ring 520, the gripper handling module driving the mother-daughter ring gripper 805 holding the mother-daughter ring 520, passing through the opening of the target storage space and entering the mother-daughter ring magazine 807, and pushing the top block 8073 to the compressed position to avoid position conflicts between the mother-daughter ring 520 and the guiding surface 80721. Subsequently, control the mother-daughter ring magazine 807 to rise so that the mother-daughter ring 520 contacts the support bar 8071, and the handling and gripping drive unit 804 drives the mother-daughter ring gripper 805 to release the mother-daughter ring 520; the top block elastic member 8074 drives the top block 8073 to move towards the stop block 8072, pushing the mother-daughter ring 520 to contact the pressing surface 80722.

The axis of the mounting ring 519 extends along the vertical direction Z. The mounting ring 519 is used to carry and drive the rotation of the ring body. The crystal ring positioning unit selectively positions the ring body on the mounting ring 519; the adsorption cap 525 is movably connected to the mechanism base 501, and the adsorption cap 525 can move relative to the mechanism base 501 in the horizontal plane. The adsorption cap 525 passes through the crystal ring positioning unit and the mounting ring 519. The top end of the adsorption cap 525 is provided with an adsorption surface and a top pin 527. The adsorption surface selectively adsorbs the lower surface of the blue film, and the top pin 527 is used to lift the lower surface of the blue film to make part of the blue film deform upward.

[0124] The chip loading mechanism 500 is detachably installed with a mother-daughter ring 520, which facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the mother-daughter ring 520, provides a stable placement platform for the chips, and improves the usage efficiency of the chip loading mechanism 500. The blue film of the mother-daughter ring 520 can carry the chips, and the elastic blue film can adapt to different operations to avoid chip damage. The crystal ring positioning unit can move within the horizontal plane, and the mounting ring 519 can rotate around the vertical axis. The cooperation of the two can accurately adjust the position and angle of the mother-daughter ring 520, facilitating the precise positioning and adjustment of the ring body, improving the accuracy of chip loading, and contributing to the subsequent picking and placing operations of the chips. The adsorption cap 525 can move within the horizontal plane, and the adsorption surface at its top can adsorb the lower surface of the blue film. The ejector pin 527 can jack up the blue film to cause partial deformation, which helps to separate the chips from the blue film, facilitates chip picking, and is convenient for subsequent transfer.

[0125] In this embodiment, the ejector pin 527 is provided at the center of the adsorption surface, and the ejector pin 527 extends in a direction perpendicular to the adsorption surface.

[0126] The ejector pin 527 is provided at the center of the adsorption surface and extends perpendicular to the adsorption surface, which can more accurately jack up the target position on the blue film, make the blue film deform smoothly and uniformly upward, ensure that the chips can be stably separated from the blue film, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of chip separation and the success rate of chip picking.

[0127] Exemplarily, the chip loading mechanism 500 further includes a film vacuuming device 526. A plurality of film adsorption air holes 528 are evenly distributed on the adsorption surface. The film adsorption air holes 528 are communicated with the film vacuuming device 526, and the film vacuuming device 526 is used to adsorb the blue film.

[0128] The film vacuuming device 526 adsorbs the blue film through the film adsorption air holes 528, which can provide a stable adsorption force, ensure the tight fit of the blue film and the adsorption surface, prevent the blue film from shaking or shifting during the chip separation process, and improve the reliability of loading.

[0129] In this embodiment, the chip loading mechanism 500 further includes a first driving unit shaft 521, a second driving unit shaft 522, and a third driving unit shaft 523. The output end of the first driving unit shaft 521 is fixedly connected to the second driving unit shaft 522, and the first driving unit shaft 521 is used to drive the second driving unit shaft 522 to reciprocate along the first direction X; the output end of the second driving unit shaft 522 is fixedly connected to the third driving unit shaft 523, and the second driving unit shaft 522 is used to drive the third driving unit shaft 523 to reciprocate along the second direction Y; the output end of the third driving unit shaft 523 is fixedly connected to the ejector pin 527, and the third driving unit shaft 523 is used to drive the ejector pin 527 to reciprocate along the vertical direction Z. Specifically, the adsorption cap 525 is fixedly provided on the third driving unit shaft 523 so that the relative positions of the third driving unit shaft 523 and the adsorption cap 525 are fixed.

[0130] Through the cooperation of the first drive unit shaft 521, the second drive unit shaft 522, and the third drive unit shaft 523, the adsorption cap 525 can be driven to move in the first direction X and the second direction Y that are perpendicular to each other, and the ejector pin 527 can be driven to move in the vertical direction Z. Thus, the flexible movement of the adsorption cap 525 in the horizontal plane is realized, and the ejector pin 527 can eject the chip according to requirements, thereby ensuring the accurate grasping and positioning of the chip, accurately reaching the target position for chip adsorption operation, and helping to improve the flexibility and accuracy of loading.

[0131] Specifically, a fifth grating read head 524 is fixedly installed on the mechanism base 501, and the fifth grating read head 524 is used to feedback the position information of the adsorption cap 525.

[0132] Exemplarily, the crystal ring positioning unit further includes a mechanism motor mounting plate 505 and a crystal ring mounting plate 512. The mechanism motor mounting plate 505 is movably connected to the mechanism base 501, and the mechanism motor mounting plate 505 can reciprocally move relative to the mechanism base 501 along the first direction X; the crystal ring mounting plate 512 is movably connected to the mechanism motor mounting plate 505, and the crystal ring mounting plate 512 can reciprocally move relative to the mechanism motor mounting plate 505 along the second direction Y. The mounting ring 519 is rotatably connected to the crystal ring mounting plate 512.

[0133] The mechanism motor mounting plate 505 and the crystal ring mounting plate 512 of the crystal ring positioning unit reciprocally move along the first direction X and the second direction Y that are perpendicular to each other respectively, which can accurately adjust the positions of the mounting ring 519 and the mother-daughter ring 520 in the horizontal plane, thereby realizing the precise positioning of the mother-daughter ring 520 and improving the positioning accuracy of chip loading.

[0134] Further, at the top of the mechanism base 501, there are a first mechanism linear motor stator 503 and two first mechanism guide rails 502. The first mechanism guide rails 502 extend along the first direction X, and the first mechanism linear motor stator 503 is arranged between the two first mechanism guide rails 502. At the bottom of the mechanism motor mounting plate 505, there are a first mechanism linear motor mover 504 and several mechanism sliders. The mechanism sliders are slidably matched with the first mechanism guide rails 502, and the first mechanism linear motor mover 504 is rotationally matched with the first mechanism linear motor stator 503 to drive the mechanism motor mounting plate 505 to move along the first direction X; at the top of the mechanism motor mounting plate 505, there are a second mechanism linear motor stator 508 and two second mechanism guide rails 507. The second mechanism guide rails 507 extend along the second direction Y, and the second mechanism linear motor stator 508 is arranged between the two second mechanism guide rails 507. At the bottom of the crystal ring mounting plate 512, there are a second mechanism linear motor mover 509 and several mounting plate sliders. The mounting plate sliders are slidably matched with the second mechanism guide rails 507, and the second mechanism linear motor mover 509 is rotationally matched with the second mechanism linear motor stator 508 to drive the crystal ring mounting plate 512 to move along the second direction Y.

[0135] The cooperation between the stator 503 of the first mechanism linear motor and the mover 504 of the first mechanism linear motor drives the motor mounting plate 505 of the mechanism to move smoothly along the first direction X, ensuring the stability of the crystal ring positioning. At the same time, the first mechanism guide rail 502 is in sliding fit with the mechanism slider, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the movement of the motor mounting plate 505 of the mechanism, enabling the motor mounting plate 505 of the mechanism to move efficiently along the first direction X.

[0136] The cooperation between the stator 508 of the second mechanism linear motor and the mover 509 of the second mechanism linear motor drives the crystal ring mounting plate 512 to move smoothly along the second direction Y, ensuring the stability of the crystal ring positioning. At the same time, the sliding fit between the second mechanism guide rail 507 and the mounting plate slider ensures the stability and accuracy of the movement of the crystal ring mounting plate 512, enabling the crystal ring mounting plate 512 to move efficiently along the second direction Y, further improving the positioning accuracy of the mother and son rings 520.

[0137] Specifically, the bottom end of the crystal ring mounting plate 512 is fixedly connected with an upper mounting plate 510, and the mounting plate slider is arranged on the upper mounting plate 510; a third grating reader head 506 is fixedly arranged on the mechanism base 501, and the third grating reader head 506 is used to feedback the position information of the motor mounting plate 505 of the mechanism; a fourth grating reader head 511 is fixedly arranged on the motor mounting plate 505 of the mechanism, and the fourth grating reader head 511 is used to feedback the position information of the crystal ring mounting plate 512.

[0138] In this embodiment, the chip loading mechanism 500 further includes a mother and son ring positioning strip 517 and a clip 516. The mother and son ring positioning strip 517 is fixedly arranged on the crystal ring positioning unit and is in contact with the outer side wall of the ring body of the mother and son rings 520 placed on the mounting ring 519; the clip 516 is movably connected to the crystal ring positioning unit, and the clip 516 can approach or move away from the mother and son ring positioning strip 517 to press against the outer side wall of the ring body of the mother and son rings 520, so that the mother and son rings 520 are clamped between the clip 516 and the mother and son ring positioning strip 517.

[0139] The cooperation between the mother and son ring positioning strip 517 and the clip 516 can firmly clamp the mother and son rings 520 on the crystal ring positioning unit, preventing the mother and son rings 520 from shifting during rotation or movement, ensuring the accuracy and stability of chip loading.

[0140] In this embodiment, the crystal ring mounting plate 512 is provided with a reciprocating driving unit 515. The output end of the reciprocating driving unit 515 is connected with a clip 516 to drive the clip 516 to move. Specifically, the reciprocating driving unit 515 is a cylinder.

[0141] Further, there are two clips 516, which are symmetrically arranged with respect to the movement locus of the output end of the reciprocating drive unit 515; the clips 516 are hinged to the crystal ring mounting plate 512, and the clips 516 can swing relative to the crystal ring mounting plate 512 between an avoidance position and a pressing position. The clip 516 in the avoidance position is spaced from the mother-daughter ring 520 placed on the mounting ring 519, and the clip 516 in the pressing position presses against the mother-daughter ring 520 placed on the mounting ring 519. The clip 516 is also elastically connected to the crystal ring mounting plate 512 through an elastic member, and the elastic member is used to drive the clip 516 to move to the avoidance position, and the reciprocating drive unit 515 can push the clip 516 to move to the pressing position.

[0142] Exemplarily, a rotation drive unit 513 is provided on the crystal ring positioning unit. The mounting ring 519 is rotationally matched with the crystal ring positioning unit through a bearing 518. The bearing 518 provides positioning and guidance for the rotation of the mother-daughter ring 520. The rotation drive unit 513 is in transmission cooperation with the mounting ring 519 through a mounting ring synchronous belt 514.

[0143] The rotation drive unit 513 is in transmission cooperation with the mounting ring 519 through the mounting ring synchronous belt 514, so that the mounting ring 519 can rotate precisely around the axis smoothly, realizing the angle adjustment of the mother-daughter ring 520, meeting the requirements of different chip loading, and providing a reliable guarantee for the circumferential positioning of the chip.

[0144] As Figures 21 to 23 shown, the handling mechanism includes a device column 701 and a substrate gripper 71. The substrate gripper 71 can move relative to the device column 701 in a plane perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0145] This handling mechanism enables the substrate gripper 71 to move relative to the device column 701 in a plane perpendicular to the first direction X, realizing the handling of the substrate 900 in a two-dimensional plane, expanding the working space and flexibility of the substrate 900 handling, and meeting the requirements of picking and placing the substrate 900 at different positions. By integrating the substrate gripper 71 with the device column 701, the overall integration degree of the handling mechanism is improved, and the floor area is reduced.

[0146] In this embodiment, the handling mechanism further includes a translation linear module 703 and a lifting linear module 704. The translation linear module 703 is arranged on the device column 701. The output end of the translation linear module 703 is connected to the lifting linear module 704 for driving the lifting linear module 704 to move along the second direction Y. The output end of the lifting linear module 704 is connected to the substrate gripper 71 for driving the substrate gripper 71 to move along the vertical direction Z.

[0147] The settings of the translation linear module 703 and the lifting linear module 704 enable the substrate gripper 71 to move in the second direction Y and the vertical direction Z. Combining with the driving of the substrate 900 by the substrate gripper 71 in the first direction X, the handling of the substrate 900 in the three-dimensional space is realized, improving the flexibility and applicability of the handling and meeting the handling requirements of the substrate 900 at different positions. Through the precise control of the above linear modules, the precise handling and positioning of the substrate 900 in each direction can be achieved.

[0148] Exemplarily, the handling mechanism further includes a display 702 provided on the device column 701. The display 702 is used to display the moving speed, position information, and clamping state of the gripper unit in real time.

[0149] The display 702 can display the moving speed, position information, and clamping state of the gripper unit in real time. The operator can timely understand the working condition of the gripper, which is convenient for adjustment and troubleshooting, improving the safety and reliability of the handling mechanism. Through the real-time monitoring of the state of the gripper unit, potential faults and abnormal conditions can be discovered in time, and early warning and handling can be carried out, improving the reliability and stability of the handling mechanism.

[0150] As Figure 11 、 Figure 21 and Figure 22 shown, the substrate gripper 71 is used to pick up and place the substrate 900. The substrate gripper 71 includes a gripper bottom plate 705 and two gripper units provided on the gripper bottom plate 705. The gripper units can slide relative to the gripper bottom plate 705 in the first direction X. One gripper unit can press against the substrate 900 with a first driving force, and the other gripper unit can press against the substrate 900 with a second driving force. The first driving force and the second driving force are in opposite directions, and the absolute value of the first driving force is less than the absolute value of the second driving force; after the two gripper units clamp the substrate 900, the gripper units and the substrate 900 form an integral body, and the substrate 900 is driven to slide relative to the gripper bottom plate 705 with the combined driving force of the two gripper units until it reaches the limit position on the gripper bottom plate 705.

[0151] The two gripper units on the substrate gripper 71 can slide relative to the gripper bottom plate 705 in the first direction X, and the applied forces are different in magnitude and opposite in direction. This differential design can flexibly adjust the distance between the two gripper units according to the size and position of the substrate 900 to achieve stable positioning of different specifications of the substrate 900 and improve the efficiency of the pick-and-place operation. After the gripper units clamp the substrate 900 to form an integral body and slide to the limit position with the combined driving force, the clamping and positioning of the substrate 900 can be completed quickly and accurately, ensuring that the substrate 900 is stably fixed in the substrate gripper 71, reducing the shaking and displacement during handling, and improving the overall working efficiency.

[0152] In this embodiment, the jaw unit includes a jaw seat 710 and two jaw bodies 711. The jaw seat 710 is slidably engaged with the jaw bottom plate 705. The jaw body 711 can slide relative to the jaw seat 710 along the second direction Y. The jaw body 711 is used to grip the substrate 900.

[0153] The jaw body 711 can slide relative to the jaw seat 710 along the second direction Y, and the first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y, which increases the adjustment dimension of the jaw in the horizontal plane, can better adapt to the position and attitude of the substrate 900, improves the gripping accuracy, and helps to grip the substrate 900 more precisely. Since the jaw body 711 has the ability to adjust in two mutually perpendicular directions, the substrate jaw 71 can better adapt to substrates 900 of different shapes and sizes.

[0154] Further, a gripping through groove is provided at the edge of the jaw body 711. The substrate 900 can be partially inserted and matched in the gripping through groove, and an elastic anti-slip layer is provided on the groove wall of the gripping through groove.

[0155] The design of the gripping through groove at the edge of the jaw body 711 enables the substrate 900 to be partially inserted and matched, increasing the stability of gripping. The setting of the elastic anti-slip layer can prevent the jaw from damaging the surface of the substrate 900. The elastic anti-slip layer on the groove wall can increase the friction with the substrate 900, prevent the substrate 900 from sliding or falling off during the gripping process, protect the integrity of the substrate 900, and improve the reliability of gripping.

[0156] Exemplarily, a jaw rolling guide rail 706 extending along the first direction X is provided on the jaw bottom plate 705. The jaw unit is movably engaged with the jaw rolling guide rail 706. A jaw in-place sensor 709 is provided on the jaw bottom plate 705. The jaw in-place sensor 709 is used to monitor the clamping state of the jaw unit.

[0157] The jaw rolling guide rail 706 provides a stable path for the sliding of the jaw unit, enables the jaw unit to move smoothly, improves the flexibility and response speed of the operation, and reduces the energy loss. The jaw in-place sensor 709 can monitor the presence or absence of the substrate 900 on the substrate jaw 71 in real time to determine whether the substrate 900 always remains on the jaw unit during the transportation of the substrate jaw 71. It can also detect whether there is a substrate 900 clamped between the two jaw units before the jaw unit grips the substrate 900 to ensure that the jaw unit operates as expected and avoid damaging the equipment due to misoperation. The setting of the jaw in-place sensor 709 facilitates the realization of automatic control and helps to improve the safety and reliability of the substrate jaw 71.

[0158] In an implementation manner of this embodiment, a first jaw driving unit 707 is provided on the jaw base plate 705, and the output end of the first jaw driving unit 707 is connected to a jaw unit; and a second jaw driving unit 708 is provided on the jaw base plate 705, and the output end of the second jaw driving unit 708 is connected to another jaw unit. Specifically, both the first jaw driving unit 707 and the second jaw driving unit 708 are cylinders. Due to the difference in their powers, there is a difference in the absolute values between the first driving force and the second driving force.

[0159] The first jaw driving unit 707 and the second jaw driving unit 708 respectively drive the two jaw units, and independently control the driving force and position of each jaw unit through different driving methods, which is convenient for adjusting the force application and position of the jaw unit according to actual needs, and then can realize a more flexible and precise gripping operation to adapt to different working scenarios.

[0160] In other implementation manners of this embodiment, it is only limited that a first jaw driving unit 707 is provided on the jaw base plate 705, and the output end of the first jaw driving unit 707 is connected to a jaw unit, or it is only limited that a second jaw driving unit 708 is provided on the jaw base plate 705, and the output end of the second jaw driving unit 708 is connected to another jaw unit.

[0161] In this embodiment, the ratio of the absolute value of the first driving force to the absolute value of the second driving force is 1:N, where N is greater than 1; the direction of the combined driving force of the two jaw units is the same as the direction of the second driving force, and the value of the combined driving force is the difference between the absolute value of the second driving force and the absolute value of the first driving force.

[0162] Clarifying the ratio of the absolute values of the first driving force and the second driving force and the calculation method of the combined driving force enables the jaw unit to move at a reasonable speed when gripping the substrate 900, avoiding damage to the substrate 900 caused by too fast a speed or affecting the work efficiency due to too slow a speed, so as to quickly complete the gripping and moving operations of the substrate 900. Precise driving force control helps to quickly adjust the jaw spacing, thereby improving the accuracy of gripping and positioning the substrate 900 and ensuring the smoothness of the overall movement and the work quality.

[0163] Continue to refer to Figure 4 , there are two die bonding modules. The handling mechanism in one die bonding module is used to pick up or release the substrate 900 at the first stop position, realizing the handling of the substrate 900 between the feeding and discharging line body 600 and the substrate carrier platform 400 in this die bonding module; the handling mechanism in the other die bonding module is used to pick up or release the substrate 900 at the second stop position, realizing the handling of the substrate 900 between the feeding and discharging line body 600 and the substrate carrier platform 400 in this die bonding module; the feeding and discharging line body 600 can drive the substrate 900 to pass through the first stop position and the second stop position in sequence.

[0164] Two die bonding modules are provided, and the loading and unloading line body 600 can drive the substrate 900 to pass through the first stop position and the second stop position of the two die bonding modules successively, so that die bonding operations can be performed on different substrates 900 at the same time, which helps the loading and unloading line body 600 to segmentally control and optimize the transfer efficiency of the substrate 900, and avoid process congestion. The above improvement realizes the parallel operation of the two modules through the multi-station parallel mode, reduces the waiting time between processes, improves the output per unit time, and improves the production efficiency of the die bonder.

[0165] As Figures 1 to 23 As shown in the figure, the die bonder further includes a platen 100 and a base 300. The platen 100 is mounted on the base 300, and all the other components are mounted on the platen 100. Specifically, the platform base 401 is fixed on the platen 100, the mechanism base 501 is fixed on the platen 100, the cassette lifting track 806 is fixed on the platen 100, and the gripper transfer track 802 is fixed on the platen 100 through the support column 801.

[0166] On the platen 100, the two die bonding modules are symmetrically arranged with respect to the second direction Y. In the second direction Y, the transfer mechanism and the substrate carrier platform 400 within the same die bonding module are located on one side of the chip transfer mechanism 200, and the loading and unloading line body 600 is also located on this side; the chip loading mechanism 500 and the mother-daughter ring loading and unloading assembly 800 within the same die bonding module are located on the other side of the chip transfer mechanism 200.

[0167] In this embodiment, the two transfer mechanisms are jointly arranged on the same device column 701, the device column 701 is fixed on the platen 100, and the device column 701 and the two transfer mechanisms form a transfer device 700.

[0168] As Figures 8 to 10As shown, the loading and unloading line body 600 is used to convey the substrate 900 supplied by the feeding unit 680. The feeding unit 680 outputs M substrates 900 each time, where M is an integer greater than one. The loading and unloading line body 600 includes a first area 691, (M - 1) second areas 692, a third area 693, and a fourth area 694 arranged in sequence along the first direction X. The first area 691 is provided with a first conveyor 695 and a first blocking unit 64. The first conveyor 695 is used to receive the substrate 900 output by the feeding unit 680, and the first conveyor 695 can drive the substrate 900 to move to the next area. The first blocking unit 64 selectively blocks the substrate 900 from moving to the next area. The second area 692 is provided with a second conveyor 696 and a second blocking unit 65. The second conveyor 696 can drive the substrate 900 to move to the previous area and the next area. The second blocking unit 65 selectively blocks the substrate 900 from moving to the previous area. The third area 693 is provided with a third conveyor 697 and a third blocking unit 66. The third conveyor 697 is used to drive the substrate 900 to move to the next area. The third blocking unit 66 selectively blocks the substrate 900 from moving to the next area. The fourth area 694 is provided with a fourth conveyor 698, and the fourth conveyor 698 is used to drive the substrate 900 to be conveyed out of the loading and unloading line body 600.

[0169] By setting the loading and unloading line body 600 in sub - areas, it can orderly receive, convey, and output a batch of substrates 900, improving the transmission efficiency and smoothness of the substrates 900 and meeting the requirements of large - scale production. Each area is provided with a conveyor and a blocking unit, which can selectively block the movement of the substrate 900 according to production requirements, facilitating the control of the stay and movement of the substrate 900 in different areas, achieving precise control of the conveying rhythm and position of the substrate 900, avoiding the accumulation or chaos of the substrate 900, and thus adapting to diverse production processes.

[0170] In this embodiment, the first conveyor 695 in the first area 691 and the second conveyor 696 in the first second area 692 are an integrated first conveyor assembly. The first conveyor assembly can drive the substrate 900 to reciprocate along the first direction X. The third conveyor 697 in the third area 693 and the fourth conveyor 698 in the fourth area 694 are an integrated second conveyor assembly. The second conveyor assembly is used to drive the substrate 900 to move away from the first conveyor assembly along the first direction X.

[0171] The first transmission component and the second transmission component adopt an integrated structure, which reduces the number of components and connection points, simplifies the structure of the feed-in and feed-out line 600, reduces the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty, reduces the complexity of the feed-in and feed-out line 600, and enables the substrate 900 to be synchronously and stably transmitted in the component, which is convenient for the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the feed-in and feed-out line 600, and helps to improve the transmission efficiency. The integrated transmission component can provide more stable transmission power, ensure that the substrate 900 moves smoothly during the transmission process, and reduce transmission failures caused by structural connection problems. The first transmission component can drive the substrate 900 to reciprocate along the first direction X, so that the substrate 900 can move flexibly between the first area 691 and the second area 692; the second transmission component drives the substrate 900 away from the first transmission component to achieve orderly output of the substrate 900.

[0172] Furthermore, a first blocking unit 64 is disposed on the first conveying component, and the first blocking unit 64 includes a first control drive unit 641 and a first area in-position sensor 642. The first area in-position sensor 642 is used to monitor the first stop position. The output end of the first control drive unit 641 can extend into or out of the first conveying component, so that the substrate 900 moving toward the second conveying component can be positioned at the first stop position.

[0173] The first blocking unit 64 monitors the first stop position through the first area in-position sensor 642, and the first control drive unit 641 can accurately stop the substrate 900 at the position, thereby realizing the accurate positioning of the substrate 900 in the first area 691, providing an accurate position basis for subsequent processing or handling operations, and improving production accuracy. With the cooperation of the sensor and the drive unit, the automatic control of the positioning of the substrate 900 can be realized, thereby improving the degree of automation and production efficiency of production.

[0174] Specifically, the first blocking unit 64 further includes a first mounting block 643 , which is fixedly connected to the first conveying assembly, and the first control driving unit 641 and the first area arrival sensor 642 are mounted on the first mounting block 643 .

[0175] In this embodiment, the second blocking unit 65 is arranged on the first conveying component, and the second blocking unit 65 includes a second control driving unit and a second area in-position sensor, and the second area in-position sensor is used to monitor the second stop position. The output end of the second control driving unit can extend into or out of the first conveying component, so that the substrate 900 moving away from the second conveying component can be positioned at the second stop position.

[0176] The second blocking unit 65 can monitor the second stop position and position the substrate 900 moving away from the second conveying component at the second stop position, thereby satisfying the positioning control ability during the reverse conveyance of the substrate 900, improving the positioning control of the substrate 900 within the first conveying component, facilitating better connection with operations in the front and rear regions, ensuring the accurate position of the substrate 900 within the second region 692, meeting the requirements of different production processes, making the conveyance control of the loading and unloading line body 600 more flexible and comprehensive, and enhancing the coherence of the overall production process.

[0177] Specifically, the second blocking unit 65 further includes a second mounting block. The second mounting block is fixedly connected to the first conveying component, and the second control driving unit and the second region in-place sensor are mounted on the second mounting block.

[0178] Exemplarily, a third blocking unit 66 is provided on the second conveying component. The third blocking unit 66 includes a third control driving unit and a third region in-place sensor. The third region in-place sensor is used to monitor the third stop position, and the output end of the third control driving unit can extend into or disengage from the second conveying component, enabling the substrate 900 moving away from the first conveying component to be positioned at the third stop position.

[0179] The third blocking unit 66 can monitor the third stop position and position the substrate 900 moving away from the first conveying component at the third stop position, ensuring the accurate position of the substrate 900 in the third region 693, providing guarantee for the smooth discharging of the substrate 900, and providing accurate position information for subsequent handling or processing operations. The above improvements refine the control of the conveyance process of the substrate 900 by the loading and unloading line body 600 and improve the refinement degree of the production process.

[0180] Specifically, the third blocking unit 66 further includes a third mounting block. The third mounting block is fixedly connected to the second conveying component, and the third control driving unit and the third region in-place sensor are mounted on the third mounting block.

A first driving synchronous belt 623 is rotatably connected to the first rolling material fixed side 628, and a second driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the first rolling material movable side 638. The first driving synchronous belt 623 and the second driving synchronous belt are used to carry and convey the substrate 900; and the second conveying component has a second rolling material fixed side 629 and a second rolling material movable side 639 extending along the first direction X. A third driving synchronous belt 624 is rotatably connected to the second rolling material fixed side 629, and a fourth driving synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the second rolling material movable side 639. The third driving synchronous belt 624 and the fourth driving synchronous belt are used to carry and convey the substrate 900.

[0182] The first conveying component and the second conveying component carry and convey the substrate 900 through a transmission synchronous belt. The rotational connection mode of the synchronous belt can provide stable conveying power, and has the advantages of smooth transmission, low noise, etc., and can reliably realize the conveying function of the substrate 900. The setting of the above-mentioned multiple transmission synchronous belts can adapt to substrates 900 of different sizes and specifications, and improve the versatility and adaptability of the in-out feeding line body 600.

[0183] In other implementation manners of this embodiment, it is only limited that the first conveying component has a first rolling material fixed side 628 and a first rolling material movable side 638 extending along the first direction X. A first transmission synchronous belt 623 is rotatably connected to the first rolling material fixed side 628, and a second transmission synchronous belt is rotatably connected to the first rolling material movable side 638.

[0187] In this embodiment, a blanking position sensor 670 is provided on the second conveying component, and the blanking position sensor 670 is used to monitor the substrate 900 located at the output end of the second conveying component.

[0188] The blanking position sensor 670 can monitor the substrate 900 located at the output end of the second conveying component in real time, facilitating timely grasping of the discharging situation of the substrate 900, realizing effective monitoring and automatic control of the discharging process, providing accurate information for subsequent blanking operations, and facilitating the realization of an automatic blanking process. By timely feedback of the position information of the substrate 900, the time arrangement of the blanking operation can be optimized, the blanking waiting time can be reduced, and the overall production efficiency can be improved.

[0189] Exemplarily, a barcode scanner 607 is provided on the first conveying component, and the barcode scanner 607 is used to scan the workpiece information of the substrate 900 located at the first stop position.

[0190] Setting the barcode scanner 607 on the first conveying component can automatically scan the workpiece information of the substrate 900 located at the first stop position, realizing fast and accurate automatic acquisition of the information of the substrate 900, reducing manual intervention, and improving the information management level in the production process. Fast and accurate acquisition of the workpiece information is realized, the production efficiency and accuracy are improved, and it is convenient for subsequent production management and quality traceability.

[0191] By obtaining the workpiece information of the substrate 900, the relevant information of the substrate 900 can be associated with each link in the production process, facilitating product quality traceability and production process monitoring, contributing to the realization of automated production management. By obtaining the workpiece information of the substrate 900, the production progress, product quality, etc. can be monitored and managed in real time, improving the efficiency and accuracy of production management. According to the workpiece information obtained by scanning, the production links and relevant parameters of the problematic substrate 900 can be quickly located, facilitating quality analysis and improvement, improving product quality, and contributing to the timely discovery and solution of problems occurring in the production process.

[0192] Exemplarily, the first transfer assembly and the second transfer assembly are fixedly connected to the platen 100.

[0193] As Figures 8 to 11 shown, each handling mechanism corresponds to a second area 692 or a third area 693, and the handling mechanism is used to transfer the substrate 900 between the substrate-carrying platform 400 and the corresponding second area 692 or third area 693.

[0194] The die bonder combines M die bonding modules and the in-out feeding line body 600. Each component cooperates with each other, and can perform die bonding operations on multiple substrates 900 simultaneously, realizing the automated assembly process of the chips from the mother-daughter ring 520 to the substrate 900, improving the integration and automation degree of production, reducing manual intervention, improving the production efficiency and production capacity of the die bonder, and meeting the requirements of large-scale production. The handling mechanism therein can realize the rapid transfer of the substrate 900 between different areas and the substrate-carrying platform 400, ensuring the coherence of the production process. The above structural improvement reduces the waiting time of each component, and the processing time after an alarm or downtime of a certain die bonding module will not affect the other die bonding modules, contributing to the improvement of the working efficiency of the die bonder.

[0195] This embodiment also provides an in-out feeding method, which is applied to the above-mentioned in-out feeding line body 600, and includes the following steps:

[0196] Step 1: Use the feeding unit 680 to supply M substrates 900 to the first area 691.

[0197] Step 2: Use the first transfer member 695, the third transfer member 697 and all the second transfer members 696 to convey the substrate 900 in a direction away from the feeding unit 680.

[0198] Step 3: Control the first blocking unit 64, the third blocking unit 66, and all the second blocking units 65 to work. Use the first blocking unit 64 to block the movement of the substrate 900 in the first area 691. When there is no substrate 900 in the first second area 692, transfer a substrate 900 to the first second area 692, and then continue to block the movement of the substrate 900. When there is no substrate 900 in the first area 691, control the second transfer member 696 in the first second area 692 to move towards the feeding unit 680 and block it through the corresponding second blocking unit 65. When the second transfer member 696 in the previous second area 692 moves towards the feeding unit 680, control the second transfer member 696 in the next second area 692 to move towards the feeding unit 680 and block it through the corresponding second blocking unit 65. When there is a substrate 900 in the third area 693, control the third blocking unit 66 to block the movement of the substrate 900.

[0199] Step 4: After all the substrates 900 are processed, control the first transfer member 695, the third transfer member 697, the fourth transfer member 698, and all the second transfer members 696 to convey the substrates 900 in a direction away from the feeding unit 680, and control all the first blocking units 64, the third blocking units 66, and all the second blocking units 65 to stop blocking the substrates 900.

[0200] This loading and unloading method controls the feeding, conveying, and blocking units step by step, clarifies the steps such as feeding, conveying, blocking, and discharging, enables the substrate 900 to move orderly on the loading and unloading line body 600 according to a predetermined process, avoids chaos and collision of the substrate 900 during the conveying process, and ensures the continuity and high efficiency of production. During the processing, by controlling the blocking unit, the conveying and blocking units can be flexibly controlled according to the state of the substrate 900 in each area to complete the conveying and positioning of the substrate 900, coordinate the processing and transmission of the substrate 900, reduce the waiting time of the substrate 900 during the conveying process, closely match the loading and unloading process with the processing procedures, improve the overall production efficiency, and at the same time reduce production errors caused by improper manual operation.

[0201] Continue to refer to Figures 1 to 23 , this embodiment also provides a die bonding method, which is applied to the above die bonder and includes the following steps:

[0202] Step 1: Use the handling mechanism to transport the substrate 900 from the loading and unloading line body 600 to the substrate carrier platform 400, and use the mother-daughter ring loading and unloading component 800 to transport the mother-daughter ring 520 from the mother-daughter ring magazine 807 to the chip loading mechanism 500.

[0203] Step 2: Adjust the position of the substrate 900 using the substrate carrier platform 400, and adjust the position of the mother-daughter ring 520 using the chip loading mechanism 500.

[0204] Step 3: Control the pick-and-place unit located at the crystal picking position 222 to pick up the chip from the mother-daughter ring 520, and control the pick-and-place unit located at the crystal placing position 223 to release the chip onto the substrate 900.

[0205] Step 4: Use the component seat 209 to swap the positions of the two pick-and-place units.

[0206] Step 5: Determine whether the substrate 900 is assembled. If so, proceed to Step 6. If not, return to Step 2.

[0207] Step 6: Use the handling mechanism to transfer the substrate 900 from the substrate carrier platform 400 to the in-out feeding line 600, and use the in-out feeding line 600 to convey the substrate 900 out of the die bonder; use the mother-daughter ring loading and unloading component 800 to transfer the mother-daughter ring 520 from the chip loading mechanism 500 to the mother-daughter ring cassette 807.

[0208] This die bonding method forms a set of standardized and orderly die bonding processes through clear steps, from the feeding, position adjustment of the substrate 900 and the mother-daughter ring 520, pick-and-place of the chip, position swapping of the pick-and-place units, to determining whether the assembly is completed and the final loading and unloading. It is easy to achieve automated control, ensuring that the chip can be accurately assembled onto the substrate 900, guaranteeing the efficient and accurate progress of the die bonding process. Dynamically adjusting the positions of the mother-daughter ring 520 and the substrate 900 enables timely adjustment of the crystal picking position 222 and the crystal placing position 223, avoiding the situation of the chip transfer mechanism 200 stopping and waiting, and enabling uninterrupted continuous operation, which helps to improve the working efficiency of the die bonder. The automatic recycling of the empty trays is synchronized with the automatic recycling of the substrate 900 and the production rhythm, improving the overall efficiency of the production line. Through multiple position adjustments and determination of the completion of assembly, it is ensured that the chip is assembled on the substrate 900, avoiding missing or misplacing, and improving the product qualification rate and assembly efficiency.
