A fixed flange B3 is installed on the filter barrel flange 3 above the filter barrel 1, and the fixed flange 3B is used to connect and fix the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 and the liquid level sensor 11; the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 and the liquid level sensor 11 pass through and are fixed on the fixed flange B3 and the filter barrel flange 3; the outer end of the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 is connected to the ultrasonic output end 14 of the ultrasonic generator 13 via the ultrasonic vibration rod input line 12; one end of the liquid level sensor 11 extends into the filter barrel 1 to detect the liquid level height in the filter barrel 1; the upper end of the liquid level sensor 11 is connected and communicated with the two connecting ends of the liquid level protection function module (liquid level protection function module connecting end 17 and liquid level protection function module connecting end 2 18) via the liquid level sensor connecting line 15; the liquid level protection function module 16 has two signal output ends for insufficient liquid alarm, namely, liquid level protection function module alarm output end 19 and liquid level protection function module alarm output end 20.

[0023] The liquid level protection function module in this embodiment is used to improve the reliability of the ultrasonic vibrator, increase its service life and reduce costs in case of extreme situations where the ultrasonic crystal of the ultrasonic vibrator is damaged due to overheating due to lack of water in the filter barrel.

[0024] The cleaning function and working process of the cleaning device for the metal filter screen of the circulating water of the silicon wafer cutting machine in this embodiment are described as follows:

[0025] Start the silicon wafer cutting machine and circulating water pump, and the filtered circulating water begins to flow. Figure 1 As shown in the circulating filtered water flow direction 9, the circulating water enters the metal filter screen 2 inside the filter barrel 1 through the circulating water inlet 4, and the circulating water then flows out through the circulating water outlet 5;

[0026] When the ultrasonic vibrating rod cleans the metal filter barrel, the silicon wafer cutting machine sends a start command to the ultrasonic generator 13; the liquid level sensor 11 detects the circulating water level of the filter barrel 1;

[0027] When the liquid level sensor 11 detects that the liquid level is normal (the liquid level is within the normal range of the liquid level detection line 7), the liquid level protection function module 16 starts the ultrasonic generator 13, and the ultrasonic output end 14 of the ultrasonic generator 13 provides ultrasonic output to the ultrasonic vibration rod 6, and the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 performs ultrasonic cleaning on the metal filter 2;

[0028] When the liquid level sensor 11 does not detect the liquid level (the liquid level is below the liquid level detection line 7), the liquid level protection function module 16 sends a stop working instruction to the ultrasonic generator 13, the ultrasonic generator 13 stops working, the ultrasonic output end 14 stops outputting signals, and the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 stops cleaning the metal filter screen;

[0029] When the liquid level sensor 11 continuously detects the liquid level, the liquid level protection function module 16 continues to work, the ultrasonic output end 14 of the ultrasonic generator 13 continuously provides ultrasonic output to the ultrasonic vibration rod 6, and the ultrasonic vibration rod 6 continuously ultrasonically cleans the metal filter 2 until the silicon wafer cutting machine completes cutting.

[0030] The backwashing function and working process of the cleaning device for the metal filter screen of the circulating water of the silicon wafer cutting machine of this embodiment are described as follows:

[0031] After a cutting is completed, the circulating water pump Figure 1 The direction of the circulating water flow in the filter is changed to the backwash water flow 10, and the inner wall of the filter barrel 1 and the metal filter screen 2 are backwashed by the backwash water. At the same time, the liquid level sensor equipped with the ultrasonic vibrator continuously detects the liquid level. When the liquid level reaches the liquid level detection line 7, the liquid level protection function module 16 continuously starts the ultrasonic generator 13 to work, and the ultrasonic output end 14 of the ultrasonic generator 13 continuously provides ultrasonic output to the ultrasonic vibrator 6. The ultrasonic vibrator 6 continuously performs ultrasonic cleaning on the metal filter screen 2 and rinses away the silicon powder remaining on the inner wall of the filter barrel 1 and hanging on the filter screen 2, so as to prepare for the next cutting.
