[0033] Reference Figure 2 A motion structure in an embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model includes a fixed block 111, a rotating seat 110 and a lifting block 112. The fixed block 111 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 110, and a bearing 113 is provided between the fixed block 111 and the rotating seat 110, which helps to reduce wear and rotation resistance and improve stability when working at high temperatures; the lifting block 112 can move along its axial direction and be slidably connected to the fixed block 111. The lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are matched with each other through a matching structure. The matching structure includes a limit block 114 and a limit groove 115. The limit groove 115 extends along the axial direction of the fixed block 111. The limit block 114 can be embedded in the limit groove 115 along the radial direction of the lifting block 112 to realize the circumferential positioning of the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111. The lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are separately provided to perform lifting and rotating movements respectively, thereby reducing the motion resistance and component wear caused by high temperature.

[0034] Specifically, refer to Figure 2The bearing 113 is matched with the radial outer peripheral wall of the fixed block 111, and the rotating seat 110 is covered on the radial outer periphery of the fixed block 111. Furthermore, bearings 113 are provided at both ends of the fixed block 111, which helps to improve the connection stability between the fixed block 111 and the rotating seat 110. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the bearing 113 uses a deep groove ball bearing, which can simultaneously bear the axial load and radial load between the fixed block 111 and the rotating seat 110. Further, a reference block 116 is provided on the fixed block 111, and the reference block 116 is located between the two bearings 113. The reference block 116 extends radially from the fixed block 111, and the side walls at both ends of the reference block 116 are respectively abutted against the side walls of the two bearings 113, so that the relative positions of the bearing 113 and the fixed block 111 can be conveniently located during installation, thereby achieving rapid installation. Furthermore, a positioning edge 104 is provided at one end of the mounting seat 100, and the positioning edge 104 extends toward the fixed block 111. Along the rotation axis direction of the fixed block 111, the outer side wall of the bearing 113 away from the reference block 116 abuts against the side wall of the positioning edge 104, so that the bearing 113 is positioned in the mounting seat 100, thereby realizing the axial positioning of the fixed block 111 in the mounting seat 100. Further, referring to Figure 4 A slot 117 is provided at both ends of the fixed block 111, and a spring 103 is buckled on the slot 117. The side wall of the spring 103 abuts against the side wall of the bearing 113 away from the reference block 116, so that the axial positioning of the fixed block 111 and the rotating seat 110 is achieved through the spring 103.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 , the matching structure includes a first matching structure, and the first matching structure includes a limit block 114 provided on the fixed block 111 and a limit groove 115 provided on the lifting block 112. It can be understood that the fixed block 111 has an inner cavity, and the fixed block 111 is covered on the radial outer periphery of the lifting block 112, that is, the radial inner wall of the fixed block 111 is matched with the radial outer wall of the lifting block 112. At this time, when the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are connected through the first matching structure, the limit groove 115 is located on the radial outer peripheral wall of the lifting block 112 and is recessed inward along the radial direction of the lifting block 112. The limit block 114 is located on the radial inner wall of the fixed block 111, and the limit block 114 extends toward the lifting block 112 along the radial direction of the fixed block 111 and is embedded in the limit groove 115, so as to realize the circumferential positioning of the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111, and prevent the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 from rotating relative to each other. Furthermore, along the circumference of the fixing block 111 , at least one group of the limiting grooves 115 and the limiting blocks 114 are provided for cooperation. In the embodiment of the present application, two groups are provided, which helps to improve the cooperation stability.

[0036] Reference Figure 3In some embodiments, the matching structure includes a second matching structure, and the second matching structure includes a limiting groove 115 provided on the fixed block 111 and a limiting block 114 provided on the lifting block 112. It can be understood that the fixed block 111 has an inner cavity, and the lifting block 112 can slide in the inner cavity. The fixed block 111 is covered on the radial outer periphery of the lifting block 112. When the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are connected through the second matching structure, the limiting block 114 is located on the radial outer periphery of the lifting block 112 and extends outward, and the limiting groove 115 is located on the radial inner wall of the fixed block 111. When the limiting block 114 is inserted into the limiting groove 115, the circumferential positioning of the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 can also be achieved to prevent the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 from rotating relative to each other.

[0037] In other embodiments, the lifting block 112 may be provided with an inner cavity, and the fixed block 111 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the lifting block 112, that is, the lifting block 112 is covered on the radial outer periphery of the fixed block 111, and the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 may be connected through a first matching structure or a second matching structure. It can be understood that when the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are connected through the first matching structure, the limiting groove 115 is located on the radial inner circumferential wall of the lifting block 112, the limiting block 114 is located on the radial outer wall of the fixed block 111, and the limiting block 114 extends toward the lifting block 112 along the radial direction of the fixed block 111 and is embedded in the limiting groove 115; when the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are connected through the second matching structure, the limiting groove 115 is located on the radial outer wall of the fixed block 111, and the limiting block 114 is located on the radial inner wall of the lifting block 112 and extends toward the fixed block 111 to be inserted into the limiting groove 115.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 A substrate stage in an embodiment of the second aspect of the utility model includes the above-mentioned motion structure, which also includes a mounting seat 100 and a heating component 102. The rotating seat 110 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 100. The mounting seat 100 is provided with a driving rod 101 connected to a lifting block 112. Correspondingly, the two ends of the lifting block 112 are respectively provided with a first connecting end 118 and a second connecting end 119 extending outward along its axial direction. The first connecting end 118 is located at the top of the lifting block 112. The driving rod 101 is connected to the first connecting end 118 and controls the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting block 112. At the same time, the heating component 102 is fixedly connected to the second connecting end 119 of the lifting block 112 away from the mounting seat 100. Since the lifting block 112 and the fixed block 111 are buckled through the limit block 114, the driving rod 101 can drive the lifting block 112 to move up and down while allowing the mounting seat 100 to rotate around the fixed block 111.

[0039] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
