[0013] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0014] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, a heating carrier structure suitable for semiconductor wet cleaning equipment in this embodiment includes an inner tank body 2, and a cross baffle 6 is arranged in the inner cavity of the inner tank body 2. The cross baffle 6 divides the inner tank body 2 into four independent tanks. The four independent tanks are isolated from each other and numbered in sequence as 1# independent tank, 2# independent tank, 3# independent tank, and 4# independent tank, so that there is no gap between the independent tanks, which is convenient for process personnel to distribute chemical reagents in the four independent tanks. The bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner tank body 2 and the two opposite inner side surfaces of the inner tank body are respectively provided with heating film units. The heating film units heat the liquid medicine dripping down when the chip is circulated to prevent the liquid medicine remaining in the gap from carbonizing. Each independent tank is installed with three-sided heating film units, and the maximum heating area is much larger than the original open bottom heating area. The heating film units directly heat the surface of the inner tank body to achieve rapid temperature rise and fall of the inner tank body and maintain a constant temperature. The inner side walls of the inner tank body are respectively provided with cooling pipes 3, and the cooling pipes 3 cool the inner tank body 2.

[0015] The bottom of the inner tank body 2 is provided with four chemical reagent ports 7, which are connected to the corresponding independent tanks. The chemical reagent ports 7 are opened to facilitate the discharge of the chemical reagents in the independent tanks.

[0016] The above-mentioned heating film unit includes a heating film 5, which is installed on the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner tank body 2 and the inner side surface of the inner tank body. The outer side surface and the bottom of the inner tank body 2 are respectively attached with a thermocouple 4 and a temperature limiter through temperature-resistant silicone. The thermocouple 4 is electrically connected to the temperature control meter, and the temperature control meter is electrically connected to the power cord of the heating film. The thermocouple detects the temperature of the inner tank body and feeds back to the temperature control meter. The temperature control meter controls whether the heating film heats the inner tank body. The temperature limiter is electrically connected in series with the temperature control meter and the power cord of the heating film. When the thermocouple is damaged and the temperature in the inner tank body exceeds the set temperature, the temperature limiter controls the power cord of the heating film 5 to automatically cut off the power, thereby enhancing the safety of the heating operation.

[0017] The inner tank body 2 is covered with a protective shell 1, and a gap is left between the inner wall of the protective shell 1 and the outer wall of the inner tank body 2. The protective shell 1 protects the thermocouple 4, the temperature limiter and the load circuit from environmental corrosion. At the same time, if used in an organic environment, the protective shell improves safety.

[0018] The present application heats the inner tank body by means of a heating film, which can effectively reduce heat transfer losses and reduce maintenance time. A protective outer shell is provided outside the inner tank body, which improves equipment safety, reduces enterprise costs, and saves energy and reduces consumption.

[0019] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention also includes other implementation modes. Any technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent replacement should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
