Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wafer epitaxy, in particular to a graphite base for preventing wafers from sticking to the edge. Background Art
[0002] During the wafer epitaxy production process, in order to make the surface reach the temperature required for epitaxial deposition, the wafer needs to be placed on a graphite base. In order to facilitate the picking and placing of the wafer, the position of the wafer on the graphite base must be fixed. Therefore, a foundation pit is opened on the graphite base so that the wafer is placed in the foundation pit of the graphite base for easy processing.
[0003] However, when the wafer is placed in the foundation pit, it will slip to varying degrees and finally stick tightly to the edge of the groove. In the case of high temperature, a layer of silicon will also be generated at the position where the wafer edge contacts the foundation pit edge of the base, causing the wafer to adhere to the foundation pit edge, and thus may cause the wafer to break when picking and placing the wafer; therefore, a graphite base for preventing wafers from sticking to the edge is proposed for the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art and reduce the risk of wafer breakage caused by adhesion, the utility model proposes a graphite base for preventing wafers from sticking to the edge.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: a graphite base for preventing wafers from sticking to the edge of the utility model, which includes a base body, an anti-sticking edge mechanism and an extrusion mechanism. A foundation pit is opened on the surface of the base body for placing the wafer;
[0006] The anti-sticking edge mechanism includes a slider. A step groove is opened on the surface of the foundation pit, and the slider is arranged in the step groove for preventing the wafer from sticking to the edge;
[0007] A plurality of sliders are provided, and a positioning mechanism is arranged in each slider for positioning the slider;
[0008] The extrusion mechanism includes a top plate, a dial rod and a clamping block. The clamping block drives the top plate to rotate through the dial rod. The slider is slidably connected in the step groove. The positioning mechanism includes a top block, the end of the top block is arc-shaped, and a plurality of positioning grooves are opened on the surface of the step groove relative to the positioning block;
[0009] By opening a stepped groove at the edge of the foundation pit and changing the steps into several sliders, the possibility of adhesion between the base and the wafer can be reduced. At the same time, through multiple movable small blocks, the effect that the wafer can avoid sticking to the edge in any direction of sliding can be achieved. At the same time, through the cooperation of the top block and the positioning groove, when the slider slides, the positioning groove squeezes the arc angle on the surface of the top block, so that the top block realizes the bouncing effect, which can improve the feel of the staff when sliding the slider, and can play a positioning role at the same time. When the slider is not in use, it can be positioned to avoid the slider sliding randomly and the possibility of sticking to the wafer surface again. After the epitaxy of the wafer is completed, the wafer is lifted by the extrusion mechanism, which is convenient for the staff to take.
[0010] Preferably, the extrusion mechanism further includes a groove, the groove is opened on the surface of the slider, a sliding shaft is slidably connected in the groove through a spring, one end of the sliding shaft penetrates through the groove and is slidably connected, and a clamping block is fixedly connected to the end. An empty groove is opened on the surface of the foundation pit, a cross bar is fixedly connected in the empty groove, a threaded shaft is slidably connected to the surface of the cross bar, the surface of the threaded shaft is rotationally connected to the lever through a thread, a cavity is opened in the base body, and the lever is movably connected in the cavity through a spring. A through groove is opened on the surface of the stepped groove, a limiting shaft is fixedly connected to one side of the top plate, and the side of the limiting shaft away from the top plate penetrates through the cross bar and is slidably connected;
[0011] First, move the slider above the through groove, then press the sliding shaft to move downward, and at the same time, it will squeeze the spring to generate elastic force. When the sliding shaft moves, it will drive the clamping block to move, so that the clamping block penetrates through the through groove and is stuck on the surface of the lever. At this time, slide the slider, so that the slider drives the lever to rotate, and at the same time, it will stretch the spring on one side of the lever to generate elastic force. Because the threaded shaft and the lever are threadedly connected, when the lever rotates, it will drive the top plate to move upward, and push out the wafer in the foundation pit, so as to facilitate the staff to clamp the wafer. Through the limiting shaft, it can be avoided that when the lever rotates, it drives the top plate to rotate synchronously, so that the top plate cannot rise. After the wafer is taken out, release the sliding shaft, the clamping block disengages from the lever, and at this time the spring drives the lever to reset, and the top plate drops, and then the foundation pit is cleaned to facilitate the next wafer epitaxy processing.
[0012] Preferably, a pressing block is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding shaft away from the clamping block, an inwards concave arc is opened on the surface of the pressing block, a clamping block is arranged in each slider, and an inclined angle is opened on the surface of the clamping block. Through the inclined angle, when the clamping block moves downward, it can be more conveniently stuck on one side of the lever, avoiding the situation of empty clamping.
[0013] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping block, the limiting block is in an "L" shape, and a limiting groove is opened on the side wall of the cavity at the position corresponding to the limiting block;
[0014] While pressing the pressing block to drive the clamping block to move, the clamping block will drive the limiting block to move. Then, when the sliding drives the limiting block to move to the position of the limiting groove, release the slider, so that the slider is reset under the drive of the spring, and at the same time drive the limiting block to snap into the limiting groove to position the clamping block. Through the cooperation of the positioning block and the positioning groove, the top plate is ejected and fixed at the same time, which can further assist the staff to take out the wafer more conveniently.
[0015] Preferably, anti-slip grooves are provided on the surface of the pressing block; during work, the anti-slip friction and the concave arc can further improve the friction of the staff's hand, avoid slipping and improve the comfort of the staff's hand at the same time.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0017] 1. By providing a stepped groove at the edge of the foundation pit and changing the steps into several sliders, the present utility model can reduce the possibility of adhesion between the base and the wafer. At the same time, through multiple movable small blocks, the effect that the wafer can avoid sticking to the edge in any direction of sliding can be achieved. Finally, the wafer is lifted by the extrusion mechanism, which is convenient for the staff to take.
[0018] 2. The present utility model positions while ejecting the top plate through the cooperation of the limiting block and the limiting groove, which can further assist the staff to take out the wafer more conveniently. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, a graphite base for preventing wafer edge sticking includes a base body 1, an anti-edge-sticking mechanism and an extrusion mechanism. A foundation pit 7 is formed on the surface of the base body 1 for placing wafers;
[0030] The anti-edge-sticking mechanism includes a slider 5. A step groove 2 is formed on the surface of the foundation pit 7, and the slider 5 is arranged in the step groove 2 to prevent the wafer from sticking to the edge;
[0031] A plurality of sliders 5 are provided, and a positioning mechanism is arranged in each slider 5 for positioning the slider 5;
[0032] The extrusion mechanism includes a top plate 3, a lever 14 and a clamping block 13. The clamping block 13 drives the top plate 3 to rotate through the lever 14. The slider 5 is slidably connected in the step groove 2. The positioning mechanism includes a top block 19. The end of the top block 19 is arc-shaped, and a plurality of positioning grooves are formed on the surface of the step groove 2 at the position relative to the positioning block;
[0033] During operation, by opening a stepped groove 2 at the edge of the foundation pit 7 and changing the steps into several sliders 5, the possibility of adhesion between the base and the wafer can be reduced. At the same time, through multiple movable small blocks, the effect that the wafer can slide in any direction and avoid sticking to the edge can be achieved. At the same time, through the cooperation of the top block 19 and the positioning groove, when the slider 5 slides, the positioning groove squeezes the arc angle on the surface of the top block 19, enabling the top block 19 to achieve a bouncing effect, which can improve the feel of the operator when sliding the slider 5 and can also play a positioning role. When the slider 5 is not in use, it is positioned to prevent the slider 5 from sliding randomly and the possibility of sticking to the wafer surface again. After the epitaxy of the wafer is completed, the wafer is lifted by the extrusion mechanism, facilitating the operator to pick it up.
[0034] The extrusion mechanism further includes a groove 12, which is opened on the surface of the slider 5. A sliding shaft 11 is slidably connected in the groove 12 through a spring. One end of the sliding shaft 11 penetrates through the groove 12 and is slidably connected, and a clamping block 13 is fixedly connected to the end. An empty groove 16 is opened on the surface of the foundation pit 7, and a cross bar 15 is fixedly connected in the empty groove 16. A threaded shaft 17 is slidably connected to the surface of the cross bar 15. The surface of the threaded shaft 17 is rotationally connected to the lever 14 through a thread. A cavity 8 is opened in the base body 1, and the lever 14 is movably connected in the cavity 8 through a spring. A through groove 4 is opened on the surface of the stepped groove 2. A limiting shaft 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the top plate 3. The side of the limiting shaft 18 away from the top plate 3 penetrates through the cross bar 15 and is slidably connected;
[0035] During operation, first move the slider 5 above the through groove 4, then press the sliding shaft 11 to move downward, and at the same time, it will squeeze the spring to generate elastic force. When the sliding shaft 11 moves, it will drive the clamping block 13 to move, so that the clamping block 13 penetrates through the through groove 4 and is stuck on the surface of the lever 14. At this time, slide the slider 5, so that the slider 5 drives the lever 14 to rotate, and at the same time, it will stretch the spring on one side of the lever 14 to generate elastic force. Because the threaded shaft 17 and the lever 14 are threadedly connected, when the lever 14 rotates, it will drive the top plate 3 to move upward, ejecting the wafer in the foundation pit 7, thereby facilitating the operator to clamp the wafer. Through the limiting shaft 18, it can be avoided that when the lever 14 rotates, it drives the top plate 3 to rotate synchronously, making the top plate 3 unable to rise. After the wafer is taken out, release the sliding shaft 11, and the clamping block 13 disengages from the lever 14. At this time, the spring drives the lever 14 to reset, and the top plate 3 drops, and then the foundation pit 7 is cleaned to facilitate the next wafer epitaxy processing.
[0036] One end of the sliding shaft 11 away from the clamping block 13 is fixedly connected with a pressing block 6, and the surface of the pressing block 6 is provided with an in - concave arc. Each slider 5 is provided with a clamping block 13, and the surface of the clamping block 13 is provided with an oblique angle; During operation, through the oblique angle, when the clamping block 13 moves downward, it can be more conveniently stuck on one side of the lever 14, avoiding the situation of missing the catch.
[0037] A limiting block 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping block 13. The limiting block 10 is in an "L" shape, and a limiting groove 9 is formed in the side wall of the cavity 8 at a position corresponding to the limiting block 10.
[0038] During operation, when pressing the pressing block 6 to drive the clamping block 13 to move, the clamping block 13 will drive the limiting block 10 to move. Then, when the limiting block 10 is driven to move to the position of the limiting groove 9 by sliding, release the slider 5, so that the slider 5 is reset under the drive of the spring, and at the same time drive the limiting block 10 to be stuck into the limiting groove 9 to position the clamping block 13. By matching the positioning block with the positioning groove, the top plate 3 is ejected and fixed at the same time, so as to assist the staff to take out the wafer more conveniently.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, compared with Embodiment 1, as another implementation manner of the present invention, anti-slip grooves 20 are formed on the surface of the pressing block 6; during operation, the anti-slip friction and the concave arc can further improve the friction of the staff's hand, avoid slipping and improve the comfort of the staff's hand at the same time.
