[0044] Embodiment 1

[0045] See also Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the silicon wafer edge defect detection device provided by the present application includes an edge detection light source 101, a chamfer detection light source 102 and a detection camera 103. Specifically, the edge detection light source 101 and the chamfer detection light source 102 can be point light sources, and the detection camera 103 is a line scan camera.

[0046] In the specific detection process of the silicon wafer 104, when the silicon wafer 104 enters the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103, the edge detection light source 101 can be opposite to the side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104, so that the light emitted by the edge detection light source 101 directly hits the side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104, and the side edge 105 can reflect the light into the lens of the detection camera 103, so that the side edge 105 is imaged in the camera, so as to achieve defect detection of the side edge 105. Similarly, the chamfer detection light source 102 can also be opposite to the chamfered edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104, so that the light emitted by the chamfer detection light source 102 is reflected by the chamfered edge 106 and enters the lens of the detection camera 103, so that the chamfered edge 106 is imaged in the camera, so as to achieve defect detection of the chamfered edge 106. As the silicon wafer 104 moves, the detection range can cover the side edge 105, the chamfered edge 106, and the transition part between the side edge 105 and the chamfered edge 106.

[0047] The silicon wafer edge defect detection device provided in the present application has a more comprehensive detection coverage, which can eliminate the risk of missed detection of chipped edges of the silicon wafer 104; the light path of the detection light source directly hits the silicon wafer 104, and there is no need to adjust the light path through optical elements such as prisms and light path limiting elements. The adjustment is more convenient and effectively reduces the collision risk during the detection process of the silicon wafer 104.

[0048] In an optional scheme of this embodiment, the lens center of the detection camera 103 is located below the side edge 105, and the edge detection light source 101 is located directly above the detection camera 103; or the lens center of the detection camera 103 is located above the side edge 105, and the edge detection light source 101 is located directly below the detection camera 103.

[0049] In this embodiment, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when the silicon wafer 104 is placed horizontally, the side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104 is in a vertical direction. The edge detection light source 101 is located obliquely above the side edge 105, the detection camera 103 is directly opposite to the side edge 105, and the lens center of the detection camera 103 is located at a position slightly below the side edge 105, so that the light emitted by the edge detection light source 101 into the side edge 105 can enter the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103 after being reflected by the side edge 105. When the silicon wafer 104 moves horizontally driven by the conveying mechanism 121, the entire side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104 can enter the lighting range of the edge detection light source 101 and the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103, thereby realizing the defect detection of the side edge 105.

[0050] In an optional scheme of this embodiment, the chamfer detection light source 102 includes a front chamfer detection light source 107 and / or a rear chamfer detection light source 108; the front chamfer detection light source 107 is located on the side of the detection camera 103 close to the silicon wafer 104 in the forward direction, so as to be opposite to the front chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104; the rear chamfer detection light source 108 is located on the side of the detection camera 103 close to the silicon wafer 104 in the backward direction, so as to be opposite to the rear chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104.

[0051] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the silicon wafer 104 is placed horizontally, the chamfered edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 is in a vertical direction. When the silicon wafer 104 is moved horizontally driven by the conveying mechanism 121, since the front chamfer detection light source 107 is located on the side of the detection camera 103 close to the advancing direction of the silicon wafer 104, the front chamfered edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 can enter the irradiation range of the front chamfer detection light source 107, so that the light reflected by the front chamfered edge 106 enters the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103, so that the front chamfered edge 106 is imaged in the camera. Then, the side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104 can enter the irradiation range of the edge detection light source 101, so that the light reflected by the side edge 105 enters the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103, so that the side edge 105 is imaged in the camera. Finally, since the back chamfer detection light source 108 is located on the side of the detection camera 103 close to the silicon wafer 104 in the backward direction, the back chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 can enter the irradiation range of the back chamfer detection light source 108, so that the light reflected by the back chamfer edge 106 enters the lens shooting range of the detection camera 103, so that the back chamfer edge 106 is imaged in the camera. Through the above process, the detection of the side edge 105, the chamfer edge 106 and the transition part between the side edge 105 and the chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 is completed.

[0052] Embodiment 2

In this way, when detecting silicon wafers 104 of different sizes, the position of the edge detection light source 101 and the chamfer detection light source 102 and the light incident angle can be adjusted accordingly according to the actual position of the side edge 105 and the chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104, so as to achieve a better imaging effect, and the adjustment parameters are relatively few and convenient to adjust, which effectively avoids the collision problem existing in the detection of the silicon wafer 104.

[0055] In an optional solution of this embodiment, the bracket 109 includes a first mounting assembly, and the first mounting assembly is used to fix the edge detection light source 101.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the first mounting member 110 includes two arms 113 spaced apart, the arms 113 are provided with adjusting long holes to form the structure of the first guide rail 112, and the two ends of the first adjusting rod 111 are inserted into the adjusting long holes of the two arms 113, and the first adjusting rod 111 can rotate in the adjusting long holes. When adjusting the light emitting position of the edge detection light source 101, the first adjusting rod 111 can be driven to move along the adjusting long hole to adjust the position of the first adjusting rod 111 in the adjusting long hole, so as to be close to or away from the side edge 105 of the silicon wafer 104; when adjusting the light emitting angle of the edge detection light source 101, the angle of the first adjusting rod 111 can be rotated, and the adjustment operation is convenient and quick.

[0057] Furthermore, the bracket 109 also includes a second mounting assembly, and the second mounting assembly is used to fix the chamfer detection light source 102.

[0058] like Figure 1As shown, the second mounting member 114 includes a mounting rod, and the length direction of the mounting rod is the conveying direction of the silicon wafer 104. The mounting rod is provided with an adjustment slot at one end in the forward direction (corresponding to the installation of the front chamfer detection light source 107) and at one end in the backward direction (corresponding to the installation of the rear chamfer detection light source 108) close to the silicon wafer 104 to form a second guide rail 116 structure, and the length direction of the adjustment slot is the conveying direction ( Figure 1 The second adjusting rod 115 is installed in the adjusting slot of the mounting rod, and the second adjusting rod 115 can rotate in the adjusting slot. At the same time, the second adjusting rod 115 is also provided with an adjusting slot (length direction is Figure 1 in the Y direction) to form the structure of the third guide rail 117.

[0059] Specifically, when adjusting the light emitting position of the chamfer detection light source 102, it can be adjusted in two directions: the second adjustment rod 115 can be driven to move along the adjustment slot of the mounting rod to adjust the position of the second adjustment rod 115 in the adjustment slot, so as to get closer to or farther away from the chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 in the X direction; and the position of the chamfer detection light source 102 in the adjustment slot of the second adjustment rod 115 can be adjusted, so as to get closer to or farther away from the chamfer edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 in the Y direction, and the position of the chamfer detection light source 102 can be adjusted according to the size of the silicon wafer 104 and the specific angle of the chamfer.

[0062] Embodiment 3

[0063] Embodiment 3 of the present application provides a silicon wafer sorting machine, including the silicon wafer edge defect detection device of any of the above embodiments, and thus has all the beneficial technical effects of the silicon wafer edge defect detection device of any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0064] See also Figure 5 As shown, in an optional scheme of this embodiment, the silicon wafer sorting machine also includes a conveying mechanism 121; the conveying mechanism 121 is specifically a conveyor belt for transporting the silicon wafer 104, and silicon wafer edge defect detection devices are provided on both sides of the conveying mechanism 121 to detect the side edges 105 and chamfered edges 106 on both sides of the silicon wafer 104.

[0065] In this embodiment, both sides of the conveying mechanism 121 are provided with silicon wafer edge defect detection devices to respectively capture images of the side edges 105 and chamfered edges 106 on the left and right sides of the silicon wafer 104. Each silicon wafer edge defect detection device is provided with three point light sources to form three light paths (shown by dotted lines in the figure), and the three light paths are staggered. When the silicon wafer 104 moves forward under the transportation of the conveying mechanism 121, the front chamfered edge 106, the side edge 105 and the rear chamfered edge 106 of the silicon wafer 104 can successively enter the irradiation range of each light source, so that each detection surface of the silicon wafer 104 can be imaged in the line scan camera.

[0066] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in an optional solution of this embodiment, the silicon wafer sorting machine also includes a distance adjustment mechanism 122, which can adjust the position of the silicon wafer edge defect detection device to keep the silicon wafer 104 centered, thereby automatically adjusting the distance when changing silicon wafers 104 of different sizes, which is more accurate and convenient than manual adjustment.

[0067] Specifically, the distance adjustment mechanism 122 includes a mounting seat 123, a driving assembly and a guide rail assembly 127. The driving assembly and the guide rail assembly 127 are mounted on the mounting seat 123, and the guide direction of the guide rail assembly 127 is perpendicular to the transportation direction of the silicon wafer 104. The mounting seat 123 includes a support block 124, a mounting plate 125 and a connecting plate 126. The support block 124 is used to support the guide rail assembly 127, the mounting plate 125 is used to fix the driving assembly, and the mounting plate 125 is connected to the guide rail assembly 127 through the connecting plate 126.

[0068] The guide rail assembly 127 includes a slide rail 128 and two sliders 129 slidably mounted on the slide rail 128. The driving assembly is connected to the two sliders 129 to drive the two sliders 129 to move closer or farther away. The two silicon wafer edge defect detection devices are respectively mounted on the two sliders 129. The guide rail assembly 127 can guide the movement of the silicon wafer edge defect detection device so that the silicon wafer edge defect detection device can reciprocate in a direction perpendicular to the transport direction of the silicon wafer 104, so that the position adjustment of the silicon wafer edge defect detection device is more accurate.

[0069] Furthermore, the guide rail assembly 127 includes a driving device, a transmission belt and a connecting piece 134. The driving device is specifically a motor 130 and is installed on the mounting seat 123. The output shaft of the motor 130 is connected to the driving wheel 131 of the transmission belt, and the driven wheel 132 of the transmission belt can be installed on the mounting seat 123 through a bearing. The driving wheel 131 and the driven wheel 132 of the transmission belt divide the belt 133 into two connecting parts with opposite movement directions. The two connecting parts are both installed with a connecting piece 134, and the two connecting pieces 134 are respectively connected to two sliders 129. When the motor 130 drives the transmission belt to run, the transmission belt can drive the two sliders 129 to move toward or away from each other to change the relative position of the two silicon wafer edge defect detection devices and the silicon wafer 104, so that the relative position of the two can be adjusted according to the size of the silicon wafer 104, thereby ensuring that the silicon wafer 104 is always centered.
