Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of spray devices, and in particular to a spray device for a diamond wire slicer. Background Art

[0002] Silicon wafers are the main raw materials in the semiconductor and photovoltaic fields. Silicon wafers are cut from silicon rods. There are two main ways to cut silicon rods: inner circle cutting and multi-wire cutting.

[0003] The multi-wire cutting method is a cutting method that uses a high-speed moving steel wire to drive the cutting blade attached to the steel wire to rub the silicon rod, thereby cutting the silicon rod into multiple thin slices at the same time. At present, silicon rods are generally cut by diamond wire, which is made by consolidating diamond micropowder particles evenly on a mother wire (high carbon steel wire) with a certain distribution density.

[0004] When the silicon rod is cut by diamond wire, a cooling device for cooling the diamond wire is generally installed on the frame in order to cool the diamond wire. Generally, two cooling devices are provided. Both cooling devices are located above the wire mesh of the diamond wire, and the silicon rod is located between the two cooling devices.

[0005] Existing cooling devices generally include a cooling box and a guide plate. The cooling box is fixedly mounted on the frame, and the cooling box is filled with coolant. The cooling box is connected to a cooling pipeline, and the cooling pipeline is located on the side where the two cooling boxes are close to each other. The guide plate is installed on the side where the two cooling boxes are close to each other, and the side of the guide plate away from the cooling box is tilted downward, and the lowest point of the guide plate is located above the wire mesh of the diamond wire. The coolant inside the cooling box flows to the guide plate through the cooling pipeline, and the guide plate guides the coolant to the wire mesh of the diamond wire, thereby cooling the diamond wire.

[0006] With the development of the diamond wire industry, in order to maximize the output of silicon wafers, diamond wires are becoming thinner and thinner, and the cut silicon wafers are becoming thinner and thinner. After the silicon rod is cut, when the cut silicon rod is lifted up from the diamond wire mesh, the two adjacent silicon wafers tend to get close to each other. During the relative movement of the diamond wire and the silicon rod, there is a defect that the diamond wire is easy to scratch the silicon wafer. Utility Model Content

[0029] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 3 This application is described in further detail.

[0030] The embodiment of the present application discloses a spray device for a diamond wire slicer.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] A spray device for a diamond wire slicer comprises a frame, a cooling device 2, a spray assembly 1, a collection assembly and a controller. The frame is placed on the ground, the cooling device 2 is fixedly mounted on the frame, two cooling devices 2 are provided, a silicon rod is located between the two cooling devices 2, and both cooling devices 2 are located above the wire mesh of the diamond wire.

[0033] The cooling device 2 includes a cooling box 21 and a guide plate 22. The cooling box 21 is fixedly mounted on the frame, and the cooling box 21 is filled with coolant. Each cooling box 21 is connected to a cooling pipeline, and the cooling pipeline is located on the side of the cooling box 21 close to the silicon rod. The guide plate 22 is fixedly mounted on the side of the cooling box 21 close to the silicon rod. The guide plate 22 is located below the cooling pipeline, and the side of the guide plate 22 close to the silicon rod is tilted downward. The spray assembly 1 is installed on the side of the guide plate 22 close to the silicon rod, the collection assembly is installed below the wire mesh of the diamond wire, the controller is installed on the frame, and the controller and the spray assembly 1 are electrically connected.

[0034] After the diamond wire has finished cutting the silicon rod, when the cut silicon rod is lifted up and separated from the wire mesh of the diamond wire, the controller controls the spray assembly 1 to spray water on the silicon rod after cutting, and the spray water is sprayed between two adjacent silicon wafers, and the spray water flows on the silicon wafers. When the spray water flows between two adjacent silicon wafers, the spray water separates the two adjacent silicon wafers that are close to each other, and takes away the impurities attached to the silicon wafers, and merges into the collection assembly, and is collected by the collection assembly. By spraying water, the two adjacent silicon wafers are separated, and the impurities on the silicon wafers are taken away from the silicon wafers, so as to reduce the possibility of the diamond wire scratching the silicon wafer when the silicon rod is separated from the wire mesh of the diamond wire.

[0035] The spray assembly 1 includes a spray portion 11 , a spray water supply portion and a connection portion 12 .

[0036] The spray part 11 is installed on the side of the guide plate 22 close to the silicon rod. The spray part 11 includes a spray pipe 111 and an atomizing nozzle 112. The length direction of the spray pipe 111 is consistent with the length direction of the silicon rod. A plurality of atomizing nozzles 112 are provided, and the plurality of atomizing nozzles 112 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the spray pipe 111, and each atomizing nozzle 112 is connected to the inside of the spray pipe 111.

[0037] The spray water supply unit includes a water tank, a water pipe and a water pump. The water tank is placed near the frame, and the water tank is filled with spray water. One end of the water pipe is connected to the water tank, and the other end of the water pipe is connected to the spray pipe 111. In order to facilitate the placement of the spray pipe 111, the water pipe is a hose. The water pump is fixedly installed on the water pipe, and the water pump and the water pipe are connected.

[0038] When it is necessary to spray water on the cut silicon rods, the water pump passes the spray water in the water tank into the spray pipe 111 through the water pipe, and sprays the spray water between two adjacent silicon wafers through the atomizing nozzle 112 installed on the spray pipe 111.

[0039] Two connecting parts 12 are provided, and the two connecting parts 12 are respectively located at two ends of the guide plate 22 close to the silicon rod.

[0040] The connecting part 12 includes a positioning block 121, a fixing plate 122, a connecting rod 123 and a connecting nut 124. The positioning block 121 is fixedly mounted on the guide plate 22. One end of the connecting rod 123 is fixedly mounted on a side of the positioning block 121 away from the guide plate 22, and the connecting nut 124 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 123.

[0041] The connecting rod 123 penetrates the fixing plate 122 . When the fixing plate 122 is installed on the positioning block 121 , the fixing plate 122 is pressed onto the positioning block 121 by the connecting nut 124 after the connecting rod 123 penetrates the fixing plate 122 .

[0042] The fixing plate 122 is fixedly connected to the pipe wall of the spray pipe 111. In the embodiment of the present application, the fixing plate 122 is welded to the pipe wall of the spray pipe 111. In order to improve the position accuracy of the welding fixing plate 122 and the pipe wall of the spray pipe 111, a circular arc surface is provided on one side of the fixing plate 122 close to the pipe wall of the spray pipe 111. The pipe wall of the spray pipe 111 and the circular arc surface of the fixing plate 122 fit together, and the spray pipe 111 is positioned by the circular arc surface on the fixing plate 122.

[0043] After the spray pipe 11 is fixedly mounted on the positioning block 121 through the fixing plate 122 , a certain gap is left between the spray pipe 11 and the guide plate 22 to facilitate the flow of the coolant on the guide plate 22 .

[0044] The collecting assembly is arranged in a groove shape, and the opening of the collecting assembly faces upward. The collecting assembly is located below the wire mesh of the diamond wire. The spray water is collected by the collecting assembly, thereby improving the cleanliness of the working environment and facilitating the recycling of the spray water.

[0045] The implementation principle of a spray device for a diamond wire slicer in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: after rotating the spray pipe 111 and adjusting the working angle of the atomizing nozzle 11, the spray pipe 111 is fixedly mounted on the positioning block 121 through the fixing plate 122. After the silicon rod is cut, when the silicon rod is lifted upward away from the wire mesh of the diamond wire, the controller passes the spray water inside the water tank into the spray pipe 111 through the water pipe through the water pump, and sprays it out from the atomizing nozzle 112 on the spray pipe 111. The water mist sprayed by the atomizing nozzle 112 reduces the impact force on the silicon wafer, and further reduces the possibility of the silicon wafer falling due to excessive force. The atomized spray water converges between two adjacent silicon wafers, separates the two silicon wafers close to each other through the tension of the water, separates the impurities attached to the silicon wafer from the silicon wafer, and collects the spray water through the collecting component, so as to facilitate the recycling of the spray water. The spraying water separates the two silicon wafers that are close to each other, thereby increasing the distance between the diamond wire and the two adjacent silicon wafers. Therefore, when the silicon rod is lifted, the possibility of the diamond wire scratching the silicon wafer is reduced.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the fixing plate 122 includes a mounting plate and a clamping plate. Two mounting plates are provided, and the two mounting plates are parallel to each other. The clamping plate is provided in an arc shape, and the two ends of the clamping plate correspond to the two mounting plates one by one, and the mounting plate and the clamping plate are integrally formed.

[0048] When installing the spray pipe 111 , the spray pipe 111 is placed on a clamping plate, and the spray pipe 111 is initially clamped and positioned by the clamping plate.

[0049] In order to adjust the working angle of the spray pipe 111, the clamping plate is provided with a plurality of limit grooves 1221, and the clamping plate is provided with scale marks corresponding to the limit grooves 1221. The outer wall of the spray pipe 111 is fixedly mounted with limit teeth 1111, and the limit teeth 1111 and the limit grooves 1221 are plugged and matched.

[0050] The implementation principle of Example 2 is as follows: when installing the spray pipe 111, the spray pipe 111 is placed on the clamping plate, and the staff places the limiting teeth 1111 in the corresponding limiting grooves 1221 with reference to the scale marks, so as to adjust the working angle of the atomizing nozzle 112 on the spray pipe 111. Then, the mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the positioning block 121 to complete the installation of the spray pipe 111.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
