[0023] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present disclosure, the solutions of the present disclosure will be further described below. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0024] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0025] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a fixture for grinding a curved sapphire wafer, which includes: a base, a bearing, and a connecting member; the base includes a first cavity, a second cavity, and a third cavity; the bearing is fixed in the second cavity; the connecting member can be movably placed in the cavity of the inner ring of the bearing.

[0026] Specifically, the fact that the bearing is fixed in the second cavity means that by setting the sizes of the second cavity and the bearing, the bearing is snap-fitted in the second cavity. Through this setting, the bearing can drive the base to rotate; the base further includes a third cavity, and the third cavity is provided with clearance. Through this setting, the wear during the use of the bearing of the fixture can be reduced, and its service life can be increased; the fact that the connecting member can be movably placed in the cavity of the inner ring of the bearing means that the size of the part of the connecting member placed in the cavity of the inner ring of the bearing is slightly smaller than the size of the inner ring of the bearing. This setting facilitates the taking and placing of the connecting member.

[0027] During specific use, the fixture is installed on a grinding device, and there are components on the grinding device that are matched with the connecting member. By controlling the connecting member to drive the bearing and the base to move, during this process, the bearing can drive the base to rotate, thereby fully grinding the curved sapphire wafer.

[0028] In some embodiments, the base 1 further includes two through holes 14, and the through holes 14 are symmetrically distributed on the bottom surface of the first cavity 11.

[0029] Specifically, the through holes 14 are symmetrically distributed on the bottom surface of the first cavity 11. Through the setting of the through holes 14, the installation and disassembly of the bearing 2 can be made more convenient.

[0030] As Figure 2 shown, the base 1 further includes a blind hole 15 and a first inclined surface 16, and the blind hole 15 is provided on the edge of the first cavity 11.

[0031] Specifically, the blind hole 15 being provided on the edge of the first cavity 11 means that the center of the circle of the blind hole 15 is located on the edge of the first cavity 11. Half of the blind hole 15 is inside the first cavity 11, and the other half is outside the first cavity 11. The half of the blind hole 15 outside the first cavity 11 is located above the first inclined surface 16. The combined setting of the first inclined surface 16 and the blind hole 15 causes the first inclined surface 16 to form a notch at the position of the blind hole 15. After grinding is completed, the sapphire wafer can be easily removed through this notch, reducing the difficulty of wafer removal after grinding.

[0032] As Figure 3 shown, the connecting member 3 includes a first cylinder 31, a second cylinder 32, and a third cylinder 33. The first cylinder 31, the second cylinder 32, and the third cylinder 33 are of an integral structure.

[0033] In some embodiments, a pin hole 311 is provided on the top surface of the first cylinder 31.

[0034] In some embodiments, the diameter of the second cylinder 32 is greater than the inner diameter of the bearing 2.

[0035] As Figure 6 shown, when the fixture for grinding a curved sapphire wafer provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is specifically used, the curved sapphire wafer is placed in the first cavity 11, and then the fixture is placed on the grinding plate of the grinding equipment. The probe of the grinding equipment is inserted into the pin hole 311, and the fixture is controlled to move back and forth in one direction. During this process, the bearing 2 drives the base 1 to rotate, so as to evenly grind each part of the curved sapphire wafer.

[0036] It should be noted that in this article, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "including a..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0037] The above are only specific embodiments of the present disclosure, enabling those skilled in the art to understand or implement the present disclosure. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure will not be limited to these embodiments herein, but rather will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
