[0029] The following will introduce in detail the specific structure of a wafer picking device after waxing provided by an embodiment of the present utility model and the corresponding technical effects brought thereby with reference to the patent drawings.
[0030] A wafer picking device 1 after waxing provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a base 100, a guide rail assembly 200 and a wafer picking structure 400.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , the base 100 is used to place the silicon carbide wafer with a wax layer, that is to say, the wax layer is located between the base 100 and the silicon carbide wafer.
[0032] It should be noted that the silicon carbide will go through processes such as waxing. During waxing, the wax will be heated to an appropriate temperature to melt it, and the melted wax will be evenly applied on the support carrier. It should be noted that the support carrier can be understood as the base 100 in this embodiment. Then, the silicon carbide wafer is placed on the wax layer to ensure that the silicon carbide wafer is in close contact with the base 100. During the waxing process, a pressure tool can be used to help the silicon carbide wafer better adhere to the wax layer. Until the wax layer cools and solidifies, the silicon carbide wafer can be firmly adhered to the base 100. After the silicon carbide wafer is fixed on the support carrier, the next step of processing can be carried out, such as cutting or etching, etc. After the processing is completed, the wafer needs to be removed from the support carrier.
[0033] In some existing wafer picking processes, it is mostly necessary to heat and soften the wax layer, and only after the softened wax layer cools to a certain temperature can the silicon carbide wafer be manually removed, with low efficiency. It should be noted that the removed silicon carbide wafer needs to be cleaned to remove the residual wax on the silicon carbide wafer.
[0034] In this embodiment, the guide rail 210 includes two conveying guide rails 210. The two conveying guide rails 210 are arranged on both sides of the base 100 along the width direction of the base 100. The conveying guide rails 210 extend along the length direction of the base 100. Both ends of the wafer picking structure 400 are detachably connected to the two conveying guide rails 210. The wafer picking structure 400 can move along the length direction of the base 100 driven by the conveying guide rails 210, so as to drive the silicon carbide wafer to move away from the base 100. That is to say, when the conveying guide rails 210 drive the wafer picking structure 400 to move relative to the base 100 along the length direction of the base 100, the silicon carbide wafer is driven to move away from the base 100.
[0035] It can be understood that during the wafer picking process, since there is no need for an operator to pick up the wafer manually, nor to heat and soften the wax layer and wait for the wax layer to cool to a certain temperature, the silicon carbide wafer can be directly driven to move away from the base 100 under the action of the conveying guide rails 210 and the wafer picking structure 400, thereby improving the wafer picking efficiency of the silicon carbide wafer.
[0036] Specifically, in this embodiment, the wafer picking structure 400 is used to abut against the wax layer. That is to say, when driving the silicon carbide wafer to move away from the base 100, under the action of the conveying guide rails 210, the wafer picking structure 400 contacts the wax layer under the silicon carbide wafer, that is, the wafer picking structure 400 contacts the outer peripheral wall of the wax layer, and under the action of the conveying guide rails 210, drives the wax layer and the silicon carbide wafer above the wax layer to move away from the base 100 together.
[0037] Optionally, the above-mentioned wafer picking structure 400 being used to abut against the wax layer can be understood as that part of the wafer picking structure 400 abuts against the peripheral wall of the wax layer, and the other part abuts against the peripheral wall of the silicon carbide wafer. It can also be understood as only abutting against the peripheral wall of the wax layer.
[0038] It can be understood that the wafer picking structure 400 not only abuts against the silicon carbide wafer to pull the silicon carbide wafer, but abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the wax layer to pull the wax layer and drive the silicon carbide wafer on the wax layer, which can avoid scratching the silicon carbide wafer by the wafer picking structure 400.
[0039] In this embodiment, since the wafer picking structure 400 can be detachably connected to the conveying guide rails 210, it is convenient for the operator to disassemble and assemble.
[0040] Optionally, the conveying guide rail 210 includes a driving member (not shown), the guide rail 210 and a moving member 220, wherein the moving member 220 is disposed on the guide rail 210 and is detachably connected to the film-taking structure 400, and the film-taking member is used to drive the moving member 220 to move on the guide rail 210. In other words, the driving member drives the moving member 220 and then drives the film-taking structure 400 connected to the moving member 220 to move, and when the driving members on the conveying guide rails 210 on both sides move synchronously, the film-taking structure 400 can be driven to move along the extension direction of the guide rail 210, and then the wax layer can be pulled to separate the wax layer from the support platform 100, and then the silicon carbide wafer disposed on the wax layer is driven to separate from the support platform 100.
[0041] It should be noted that the structure of the conveying guide rail 210 can be the conveying guide rail 210 structure in the prior art. The guide rail 210 structure is a conventional and mature structure. It only needs to be able to drive the film picking structure 400 to move in the length direction of the platform 100. The specific structure of the conveying guide rail 210 and its connection relationship will not be described in detail here.
[0042] In detail, the support platform 100 has an inlet end 101 and an outlet end 102 relative to each other, and a receiving pad for receiving the silicon carbide wafer is arranged on the lower side of the outlet end 102, and the receiving pad is made of a flexible material. It can be understood that the wafer taking structure 400 can move from the outlet end 102 to the inlet end 101 under the action of the conveying guide rail 210, and in the process of moving, it can pull the wax layer on the support platform 100 to separate from the support platform 100, and drive the silicon carbide wafer to detach from the support platform 100 from the outlet end 102 of the support platform 100. After detaching from the support platform 100 from the outlet end 102 of the support platform 100, the silicon carbide wafer and the wax layer on the silicon carbide wafer will fall on the receiving pad together. Since the receiving pad is made of a flexible material, it can prevent the silicon carbide wafer from being damaged after falling.
[0043] Optionally, the support platform 100 has a mounting surface 110, and the mounting surface 110 is used to prevent the silicon carbide wafer. The mounting surface 110 is tilted downward. It can be understood that since the mounting surface 110 is tilted downward, it can facilitate the downward movement of the silicon carbide crystal and the wax layer under the silicon carbide crystal to detach from the support platform 100 and complete the silicon carbide crystal wafer removal.
[0044] It should be noted that the installation surface 110 being tilted downward can be understood as the base 100 being tilted as a whole so that the installation surface 110 is also tilted downward.
[0045] Optionally, the film taking device 1 also includes a support member, which is connected to the support platform 100 and is used to support the support platform 100. The support platform 100 is detachably connected to the support member. When the support platform 100 is set on the support member, the support platform 100 is tilted downward, that is, the mounting surface 110 is also tilted downward.
[0046] Optionally, the included angle between the installation surface 110 and the horizontal plane is 15 to 30°. When the included angle between the installation surface 110 and the horizontal plane is between 15 and 30°, it is convenient for the wax layer and the silicon carbide wafer separated from the surface of the bearing platform 100 to move along the length direction of the bearing platform 100, and then be discharged from the outlet end 102.
[0047] Optionally, in some embodiments, a heating element (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the bearing platform 100 away from the silicon carbide wafer. It can be understood that in order to facilitate the wafer taking structure 400 to separate the wax layer from the bearing platform 100, the wax layer can be preheated through the heating element to at least partially melt the bonding surface between the wax layer and the bearing platform 100, so as to facilitate the curved surface structure to separate the wax layer from the bearing platform 100.
[0048] Optionally, two side plates 300 are provided on the bearing platform 100 along its own width direction, and two conveying guide rails 210 are respectively arranged on the two side plates 300. The side plates 300 can limit the movement of the wax layer in the width direction.
[0049] Optionally, in some embodiments, the conveying guide rail 210 is detachably connected to the side plate 300 for easy disassembly and assembly of the conveying guide rail 210. Of course, in some other embodiments, the conveying guide rail 210 can also be directly detachably arranged on both sides in the width direction of the bearing platform 100.
[0050] Optionally, in some embodiments, the wafer taking structure 400 is made of a flexible material, for example, a rope made of hemp, cotton, linen, polypropylene, nylon, polyester, or polyethylene.
[0051] Of course, in some other embodiments, the wafer taking structure 400 can also be made of other materials, not limited to flexible materials.
[0052] Optionally, in some embodiments, a first limiting member (not shown in the figure) is provided at the outlet end 102, and the first limiting member is used to limit the movement of the wafer taking structure 400 in the direction from the inlet end 101 to the outlet end 102. A second limiting member is provided at the inlet end 101, and the second limiting member (not shown in the figure) is used to limit the movement of the wafer taking structure 400 in the direction from the outlet end 102 to the inlet end 101.
[0053] First limiting members can be provided at the outlet ends 102 of the two side plates 300, and the first limiting members are used to limit the movement of the moving member 220 structure in the direction from the inlet end 101 to the outlet end 102. Second limiting members are provided at the inlet ends 101 of the two side plates 300, and the second limiting members are used to limit the movement of the moving member 220 in the direction from the outlet end 102 to the inlet end 101.
[0054] Optionally, the bearing platform 100 is further provided with a first position sensor (not shown in the figure) and a second position sensor (not shown in the figure) located between the inlet section and the outlet end 102. The first position sensor is close to the inlet section, and the second position sensor is close to the outlet end 102. Specifically, the first position sensor is arranged at the side plate 300 close to the inlet end 101, and the second position sensor is arranged at the side plate 300 close to the outlet end 102. Wherein, the first position sensor and the second position sensor are communicatively connected to the driving member. When the first position sensor detects that the moving member 220 has passed, the driving member stops to prevent the moving member 220 from continuing to move. When the second position sensor detects that the moving member 220 has passed, the driving member stops to prevent the moving member 220 from continuing to move.
[0055] In summary, a wafer picking device 1 after waxing provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a bearing platform 100, a guide rail assembly 200, and a wafer picking structure 400. The guide rail 210 includes two conveying guide rails 210. The two conveying guide rails 210 are arranged on both sides of the bearing platform 100 along the width direction of the bearing platform 100. The conveying guide rail 210 extends along the length direction of the bearing platform 100. The two ends of the wafer picking structure 400 are detachably connected to the two conveying guide rails 210 respectively. The wafer picking structure 400 can move along the length direction of the bearing platform 100 driven by the conveying guide rail 210 to drive the silicon carbide wafer to move away from the bearing platform 100. That is to say, in the process of driving the wafer picking structure 400 to move relative to the bearing platform 100 along the length direction of the bearing platform 100 by the conveying guide rail 210, the silicon carbide wafer is driven to move away from the bearing platform 100. The silicon carbide wafer can be directly driven to move away from the bearing platform 100 under the action of the conveying guide rail 210 and the wafer picking structure 400, thereby improving the wafer picking efficiency of the silicon carbide wafer.
