Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor packaging, and more specifically to a carrier platform and a bonding machine. Background Art

[0002] In the semiconductor wire bonding process, two methods are usually used for bonding. One is to install the conveying mechanism on the carrier platform, and convey the lead frame carrying the chip through the conveying mechanism. During the conveying process of the lead frame, the lead frame and the chip are wire bonded by the bonding mechanism. The other is to fix the lead frame carrying the chip on the carrier platform, and then use the bonding mechanism to bond the lead frame and the chip. Among them, whether it is the lead frame conveying process or the bonding process of the bonding mechanism, the movement of the conveying mechanism or the bonding mechanism will inevitably bring about the overall vibration of the carrier platform. When the vibration reaches a certain amount, it will affect the bonding accuracy and cause the equipment error to become larger. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the bearing platform in the embodiment of the present application includes a bearing seat 1 and a fixed seat 2, wherein: the fixed seat 2 includes a bottom plate 21, a first side plate 22 and a second side plate 23, wherein the first side plate 22 and the second side plate 23 are relatively arranged at both ends of the bottom plate 21 along the length direction of the bottom plate 21 (such as the X-axis direction in the figure). The bearing seat 1 is located between the first side plate 22 and the second side plate 23, the first side wall 11 of the bearing seat 1 is connected to the first side plate 22 through at least one first elastic connection component 4, and the second side wall 12 of the bearing seat 1 is connected to the second side plate 23 through at least one second elastic connection component 5, and the first elastic connection component 4 and the second elastic connection component 5 are both configured to generate elastic deformation in the length direction of the bottom plate after being compressed. The lower end of the damper 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 21 of the fixed seat 2, and the upper end of the damper 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bearing seat 1.

[0037] The supporting platform in the embodiment of the present application is used to support the supporting seat 1 of the lead frame, and the two sides are connected to the first side plate 22 and the second side plate 23 of the fixing seat 2 through the first elastic connection component 4 and the second elastic connection component 5 respectively, and a damper 3 is connected between the bottom of the supporting seat 1 and the fixing seat 2.

[0038] When the lead frame is being transported or bonded, the movement of the transport mechanism or the bonding device will cause the support base 1 to vibrate along the length direction of the base plate 21. The first elastic connection component 4 and the second elastic connection component 5 will generate elastic deformation under the pressure of the support base 1, and the damper 3 will absorb the vibration, thereby reducing the overall vibration of the support platform and ultimately improving the bonding accuracy.

[0039] It is a mature technology in this field to absorb and reduce the vibration of mechanical components by dampers. The damper 3 in the embodiment of the present application can adopt various types of existing dampers, such as friction dampers, magnetic dampers, air dampers, liquid dampers, etc.

[0040] In order to further improve the vibration absorption effect of the damper 3, optionally, the damper 3 further includes a moving part and an energy absorbing part, wherein the moving part is installed at the upper end of the damper 3, and when the bearing seat 1 vibrates, it moves synchronously with the bearing seat 1. The energy absorbing part is installed at the lower end of the damper, and the energy absorbing part is used to absorb the kinetic energy of the moving part when the moving part moves.

[0041] In order to improve the stability and force uniformity of the bearing seat 1, the vibration of the bearing seat 1 is further reduced. Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the first side wall 11 of the bearing seat 1 is connected to the first side plate 22 via two first elastic connection components 4 spaced apart along the width direction (such as the Y-axis direction in the figure) of the bottom plate 21. Similarly, the second side wall 12 of the bearing seat 1 is connected to the second side plate 23 via two second elastic connection components 5 spaced apart along the width direction of the bottom plate.

[0042] Optionally, the first elastic connection component 4 and the second elastic connection component 5 have the same structure. Taking the first elastic connection component 4 as an example, Figure 6 to Figure 7 As shown, it includes a spring sheet 41 arranged in the vertical direction, wherein the lower end of the spring sheet 41 is fixedly connected to the bearing seat 1 via a first connecting block 42, and the upper end of the spring sheet 41 is fixedly connected to the first side plate 22 via a second connecting block 43. When the bearing seat 2 vibrates along the length direction of the bottom plate 21, the spring sheet 41 generates deformation in the length direction of the bottom plate 21.

[0043] To facilitate the installation of the first connection block 42, optionally, a fixing groove for fixing the first connection block 42 is provided at the bottom edge of the bearing seat 1. To reduce the deflection and deformation of the spring sheet 41, optionally, the first elastic connection component 4 also includes clamping plates 44 provided on both sides of the spring sheet.

[0044] In some bonding scenarios, it is necessary to fix the frame fixing mechanism loaded with the lead frame on the carrier 1, and then control the bonding device to bond the chip on the lead frame.

[0045] In order to ensure that the frame fixing mechanism can be firmly and stably fixed on the bearing seat, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, optionally, a receiving space 13 for supporting the frame fixing mechanism is formed on the bearing seat 1 of the adopted bearing platform, and a plurality of (four in the figure) support columns 14 located on both sides of the receiving space 13 are arranged on the top of the bearing seat 1. The frame fixing mechanism is received in the receiving space 13 and fixedly supported on the support columns 14 on both sides of the receiving space 13.

[0046] The present application also provides a bonding machine in an embodiment, which includes a frame fixing mechanism, a bonding device and a carrier platform in any of the above embodiments, wherein: the carrier seat 1 of the carrier platform is used to carry the frame fixing mechanism, the frame fixing mechanism is used to load a lead frame, and a chip is placed on the lead frame. The bonding device bonds the chip on the lead frame.

[0047] Since the frame fixing mechanism is installed and fixed on the bearing seat 1 of the bearing platform, the vibration generated by the bearing seat during the bonding process is absorbed, thereby reducing the overall vibration of the bearing seat 1 and improving the bonding accuracy.

[0048] In other bonding scenarios, the conveying mechanism needs to be fixedly mounted on the carrier 1, wherein the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism is parallel to the length direction of the base plate 21. The lead frame is carried on the conveying surface of the conveying mechanism, and the conveying mechanism moves the lead frame to the bonding station, and the bonding device arranged at the bonding station bonds the chip on the lead frame.

[0049] In order to ensure that the conveying mechanism can be firmly and stably fixed on the bearing seat, optionally, mounting seats are provided at the top ends of the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 of the bearing seat 1. The conveying mechanism is fixed on the top of the bearing seat 1 via the mounting seats.

[0050] The embodiment of the present application also provides another bonding machine, which includes a conveying mechanism, a bonding device and a carrying platform in any of the above embodiments, wherein: the conveying mechanism is fixedly mounted on a carrying seat 1 of the carrying platform, the length direction of the bottom plate of the fixed seat 2 is parallel to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism, and the conveying surface of the conveying mechanism is used to carry a lead frame, on which a chip is placed. At least a bonding station is provided on the conveying path of the conveying mechanism. The bonding device is provided at the bonding station, and the bonding device is used to bond the chip on the lead frame located at the bonding station.

[0051] The conveying mechanism conveys the lead frame to the bonding station for bonding. Since the conveying mechanism is fixedly mounted on the support base 1 of the support platform, the vibration of the support base along the conveying direction generated during the conveying and bonding process of the lead frame is absorbed, thereby reducing the overall vibration of the support base 1 and improving the bonding accuracy.

[0052] As described in the above embodiments, in order to ensure that the conveying mechanism can be firmly and stably fixed on the bearing seat, preferably, the top ends of the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 of the adopted bearing platform are provided with mounting seats. The conveying mechanism is fixedly mounted on the top of the bearing platform via the mounting seats.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the description in the embodiments is merely exemplary, and all changes made without departing from the true spirit and scope of the present application should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
