[0018] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a silicon wafer carrier slotting device includes a base plate 1, the base plate 1 is provided with two first screw rods 11 arranged at intervals, the first screw rod 11 is provided with a first slider 12, and a first motor 13 that drives the first slider 12 to move along the first screw rod 11, and the first screw rod 11 is arranged along the Y-axis direction; a Y-direction translation bracket 2, the Y-direction translation bracket 2 includes two vertical plates 21 fixed to the first slider 12, and a horizontal plate 22 connecting the two vertical plates 21, the horizontal plate 22 is provided with a second screw rod 23 along the X-axis direction, the second screw rod 23 is provided with a second slider, and the vertical plate 21 is fixed with a second motor 2 for driving the second slider to move along the second screw rod 23 4; X-direction translation bracket 3, the X-direction translation bracket 3 includes a translation plate 31 fixed to the second slider, the translation plate 31 is provided with a third screw rod 32 along the Z-axis direction, the third screw rod 32 is provided with a third slider 33, and the translation plate 31 is fixed with a third motor 34 for driving the third slider 33 to move along the third screw rod 32; a slotting cutter head 4, the slotting cutter head 4 is fixed to the third slider 33; a processing platform 5, the processing platform 5 is used to clamp the silicon wafer carrier plate and mill it through the slotting cutter head 4 to form a plurality of grooves for embedding the silicon wafer; a punching drill bit 6, the punching drill bit 6 punches the silicon wafer carrier plate along the Y-axis direction.
[0020] Thus, the first motor 13 drives the slotting cutter head 4 to move along the Y axis, the second motor 24 drives the slotting cutter head 4 to move along the X axis, and the third motor 34 drives the slotting cutter head 4 to move along the Z axis.
[0021] During use, the processing platform 5 secures the sheet material used to form the silicon wafer carrier. The slotting tool 4 then forms grooves for the wafers. The punching drill 6 then forms airflow holes on the sides of the wafer carrier. The function of the airflow holes can be found in the disclosure of Chinese Patent CN117867460A.
[0022] Because the dimensions of the sheet material used to form the silicon wafer carrier may vary, the processing platform 5 is equipped with a slot 51 for the silicon wafer carrier. One sidewall of the processing platform 5 is provided with several supporting members 52 for supporting the silicon wafer carrier. These supporting members 52 may be retractable spring pins. In other embodiments, the supporting members 52 may be screws extending through the sidewall of the processing platform 5 to support the silicon wafer carrier. The other sidewall of the processing platform 5 serves as a reference surface 53 for the sheet material during processing, thereby ensuring the consistency of the dimensions of the grooves in the finished silicon wafer carrier.
[0023] The bottom plate 1 is provided with a slide rail 14 along the X-axis direction, and the punch drill 6 is slidably connected along the slide rail 14. The displacement of the punch drill 6 can be controlled by electronic control, or the position of the punch drill 6 relative to the silicon wafer carrier can be adjusted manually.

A fourth motor 17 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 1 for driving the fourth slider 16 to move along the fourth screw 15. The fourth slider 16 is fixedly connected to the punching drill bit 6, and numerical control programming can be used to control the first motor 13 to the fourth motor 17, thereby controlling the working stroke of the slotting cutter head 4 and the punching drill bit 6, thereby ensuring the consistency of the dimensions of the various grooves on the silicon wafer carrier and achieving automated processing.
[0025] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the base plate 1 is fixed with two spaced support blocks 18 along the X-axis, the processing platform 5 is fixed to the support blocks 18, and the first slider 12 is arranged between the processing platform 5 and the base plate 1. Through this structural design, the overall structure of the silicon wafer carrier slotting device of the utility model is compact and the structural layout is reasonable.
[0026] The upper end of the vertical plate 21 is bent toward the side away from the punching drill bit 6, and the horizontal plate 22 is provided at the end of the side away from the punching drill bit 6. Thus, the working area of the slotting cutter head 4 can be increased while maintaining the occupied space in the silicon wafer carrier slotting device of the present invention, making the overall structure of the slotting device compact and the structural layout reasonable.
