[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] See also Figure 1-4 A material frame inspection device includes a support frame 1, the inner surface of the support frame 1 is slidably connected to a shift platform 2 through a lifting mechanism, the top of the shift platform 2 is rotatably connected to a semi-toothed rotary platform 10, the top of the semi-toothed rotary platform 10 is fixedly connected to a table plate 11, the inner surface of the table plate 11 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 12, the outer surface of the rotating shaft 12 is fixedly sleeved with an inspection table 13, a redirecting mechanism for changing the angle of the inspection table 13 is provided on the semi-toothed rotary platform 10, and a guide plate 14 is provided on the top of the inspection table 13.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, in the process of inspecting the wafers in the cutting frame, the frame must first be placed on the inspection table 13, and the guide plate 14 can take out and put in the wafers in the frame. During the inspection process, the height of the inspection table 13 can be adjusted through the lifting mechanism, and the inspection angle of the inspection table 13 can be adjusted through the redirection mechanism.

[0022] Specifically, the lifting mechanism includes a rack 3 fixedly connected to the bottom of the shift platform 2, the inner surface of the support frame 1 is rotatably connected to the rotary shaft 4, the outer surface of the rotary shaft 4 is fixedly sleeved with a gear 5, and the outer surface of the gear 5 is meshed with the outer surface of the rack 3.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the rotating shaft 4 can drive the gear 5 to rotate synchronously during the rotation process. During this process, the gear 5 will drive the rack 3 meshing with it to move up and down.

[0024] Specifically, a rotary disk 6 is provided at one end of the rotary shaft 4 away from the support frame 1 , and a plurality of through holes 7 are provided on the outer surface of the rotary disk 6 . A positioning rod 8 is movably provided on the inner side of the rotary disk 6 , and a positioning hole 9 is provided on the outer surface of the support frame 1 .

[0025] Through the above technical solution, the positioning rod 8 can pass through the through hole 7 and enter the positioning hole 9, thereby limiting the rotating disk 6.

[0026] Specifically, the redirection mechanism includes a first rotary rod 15 rotatably connected to the top of the shifting platform 2 , and a driving wheel 16 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the first rotary rod 15 , and the outer surface of the driving wheel 16 is meshed with the teeth of the semi-toothed rotary platform 10 .

[0027] Through the above technical solution, the teeth of the driving wheel 16 and the half-toothed rotary table 10 are in the same horizontal plane, so the driving wheel 16 can drive the half-toothed rotary table 10 meshing therewith to rotate during the rotation process.

[0028] Specifically, a worm 17 is rotatably connected to the top of the half-tooth rotary table 10 , and a second rotary rod 18 is provided on the top of the worm 17 .

[0029] Through the above technical solution, rotating the second rotating rod 18 can drive the worm 17 to rotate, and during this process, the worm wheel 19 meshing with it will rotate accordingly.

[0030] Specifically, a worm gear 19 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 12 , and an outer surface of the worm gear 19 is meshed with an outer surface of the worm 17 .

[0031] Through the above technical solution, the worm gear 19 will drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate synchronously during the rotation process, so that the entire inspection table 13 can be flipped and the angle can be adjusted.

[0032] Working principle: During the inspection of the wafers in the cutting frame, the device can adjust the height and angle of the inspection platform 13 respectively. When adjusting the height of the inspection platform 13, the rotary disk 6 can be rotated to drive the rotary shaft 4 to rotate. During this process, the gear 5 rotates synchronously, and the rack 3 meshing with it will move in the vertical direction under the drive of the gear 5, thereby driving the shift platform 2 to move longitudinally synchronously until the inspection platform 13 above the shift platform 2 is moved to a suitable height. At this time, the positioning rod 8 can be passed through the corresponding through-hole 7 on the rotary disk 6 and finally inserted into the positioning hole 9. The rotary disk 6 is braked by the positioning rod 8 to prevent the shift platform 2 from deviating. When the inspection platform 13 is adjusted, the positioning rod 8 can be used to adjust the height of the inspection platform 13. When the angle is adjusted, the first rotary rod 15 can be rotated to drive the driving wheel 16 to rotate. The driving wheel 16 will drive the half-tooth rotary table 10 meshing with it to rotate, that is, the inspection table 13 will rotate in the horizontal direction to adjust the inspection angle in the horizontal direction. When the second rotary rod 18 is rotated to drive the worm 17 to rotate, the worm wheel 19 meshing with the worm 17 will rotate accordingly and drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the inspection table 13 will flip over at a corresponding angle as the rotating shaft 12 rotates, thereby changing the inspection angle of the inspection table 13 in the vertical direction. At this point, the entire inspection table 13 can be adjusted in the horizontal and vertical directions respectively.

[0033] In summary, the wafer inspection device in this application significantly improves inspection efficiency and accuracy by enhancing adjustment capabilities and operational convenience, thereby improving the overall production process and product quality control.
