Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor equipment, and particularly relates to an outer shape structure of a SPINDLE main shaft in semiconductor equipment. Background Art
[0002] In view of the challenges of numerous supporting components and limited installation space in the lower cavity of current semiconductor coating equipment, it is urgent to optimize the design of each accessory to ensure that they are both small and compact and easy to disassemble and repair. Among them, the SPINDLE main shaft in semiconductor equipment, as the core component for realizing the lifting and rotating functions, is of self-evident importance. However, the existing outer shape of the SPINDLE main shaft is square, which significantly increases the space occupation. At the same time, the wiring position also occupies additional space after wiring, further exacerbating the tight situation of the installation space. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an outer shape structure of a SPINDLE main shaft, which not only significantly reduces the space occupied by its outer shape, greatly improves the convenience during maintenance, but also effectively reduces the additional space required for wiring.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the present application proposes an outer shape structure of a SPINDLE main shaft, including:
[0005] A bellows end cover disc, sleeved on the SPINDLE main shaft;
[0006] A bellows assembly, located below the bellows end cover disc and fixed on the main body frame;
[0007] A copper pipe, with cooling water flowing through it, located below the bellows assembly and coiled around the main body frame;
[0008] An upper protective cover, located below the copper pipe and fixed on the main body frame;
[0009] A lower movable protective cover, located below the upper protective cover;
[0010] A lower fixed protective cover, fixed on the main body frame and hinged to the lower movable protective cover, and the two form a cylindrical structure after docking;
[0011] A SPINDLE main body base, located below the lower movable protective cover and the lower fixed protective cover, for supporting.
[0012] In one embodiment, a groove is provided on one side of the lower fixed protective cover, and the wiring head is led out from the groove to realize electrical connection.
[0013] In one embodiment, the main body frame is cylindrical.
[0014] In one embodiment, the lower movable shield is hinged to the lower fixed shield.
[0015] In one embodiment, a conductive rubber foot pad is provided under the SPINDLE body base.
[0016] In one embodiment, the upper protective cover is of an arc structure and fits the main body frame.
[0017] In one embodiment, both the lower movable shield and the lower fixed shield are of semi-circular structures and fit the main body frame.
[0018] In one embodiment, the water pipe protective cover is fixed to the main body frame and is arranged on the opposite side of the upper protective cover.
[0019] In one embodiment, the water pipe protective cover is of a flat structure and is used to protect the copper pipe joint.
[0020] In one embodiment, the connecting surface of the lower fixed shield is designed as a plane.
[0021] The above technical solution adopted by the present utility model, compared with the prior art, has the advantages that: a cylindrical main body frame is adopted, which greatly reduces the space occupation. Specifically, its upper protective cover is designed as an arc structure and closely fits the main body frame, further optimizing the space utilization. While the lower part innovatively combines a fixed shield and a movable shield, both of which are semi-circular and are connected by a hinge, effectively reducing the space occupation and facilitating the disassembly and maintenance of internal components. Especially, the wiring head is led out from the groove on one side of the lower fixed shield and connected to the electrical appliance, further compressing the space required for wiring and improving the overall aesthetics. In addition, the connecting surface of the fixing screw is designed as a plane, which not only saves space but also facilitates stable installation.
[0022] In terms of detail treatment, the water pipe protective cover is designed in a flat shape, which not only saves space but also effectively protects the copper pipe joint. A conductive rubber foot pad is fixed at the bottom of the SPINDLE body base, which not only enhances the stability of the device but also has an anti-collision buffering function, improving the safety and durability of use.
