Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of mask plate processing equipment, and in particular relates to a mask plate cleaning device system. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the modern electronics industry, the processing technology of mobile phone back panel textures, flat panel displays, and integrated circuit board micro-nano structures has become increasingly critical. At present, the mainstream method for mass production of display panels is vacuum evaporation, and vacuum evaporation must use mask evaporation technology. In the dry process, masks are used to attach red, green, and blue light color molecules or metal materials to small areas. The evaporation material will be deposited on the mask plate. When producing on the production line, the mask plate needs to be cleaned after several evaporation to prevent the mask plate from changing in accuracy due to material attachment.

[0003] When using solvent to remove the film layer deposited on the mask plate, the film layer undergoes an ionization or decomposition process, and is subsequently rinsed with deionized water to replace the surface solution and residual particles. It is usually supplemented by ultrasonic and pump circulation functions to enhance the rinsing ability.

[0004] CN 116550692A discloses a mask plate cleaning system and method, the system comprising: a first machine platform for carrying a mask plate; an image acquisition device for acquiring a surface image of the mask plate to be cleaned and determining foreign matter adhesion information on the surface to be cleaned; and an ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface to be cleaned using ultrasonic waves according to the foreign matter adhesion information.

[0005] However, the above method consumes a large amount of water in the sink during the cleaning process, and the service life is about 40 pieces. In addition, the industry-recognized brand of ultrasonic waves is expensive and is limited by the international situation, and the trade of ultrasonic components is unstable.

[0006] In summary, how to provide a highly efficient cleaning method that is superior to ultrasonic components is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model aims to provide a cleaning device system for a mask plate. The cleaning device system uses microbubbles to clean the mask plate, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect and reducing energy consumption, risk and cost.

[0008] To achieve this purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] The utility model provides a cleaning device system for a mask plate, the cleaning device system comprising a filtering device, a nano bubble supply device and a cleaning chamber which are sequentially connected;

[0010] A nano bubble spraying device is arranged in the cleaning chamber.

[0011] The cleaning device system of the utility model uses foam as a cleaning agent to clean the mask plate. The principle of cleaning the mask plate provided by the device system of the utility model is as follows: (1) Microbubble water is a pure water solution obtained by a nanobubble supply device. The pure water solution is composed of water molecules and a small amount of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions generated by ionization. The surface of 30 micrometers to 200 nanometers of bubbles usually carries hydroxide and is negatively charged. Because the surface of the nanobubble is negatively charged, it will attract positively charged particles and colloids away from the surface of the object; (2) According to the Young-Laplace equation, a tiny bubble with a diameter of 10μm will receive a pressure of 0.3 atmospheres. When high-density bubbles are generated, they burst in water and remove foreign matter from the surface of the mask plate. At the same time, at the moment of bursting, due to the drastic change of the disappearance of the gas-liquid interface, a large number of hydroxyl free radicals are stimulated to form alkaline substances to dissolve the attachments. (3) For the same volume, microbubbles have a larger contact interface, and the area is the cube of the number of bubbles. The particle size of microbubbles is extremely small, with an average particle size of 130 to 150 nanometers. Microbubble cleaning can directly penetrate into the pore structure, remove particulate matter and colloids, and accelerate the reaction rate.

[0012] Therefore, the device system of the utility model can efficiently remove particles, colloids and alkaline substances on the surface of the mask plate.
