[0032] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the following is a further detailed description of a corrosion tank structure that is easy to clean in the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an etching tank structure that is easy to clean, including a tank body 100 for etching quartz wafers. An etching frame 200 for placing the wafers for etching is provided inside the tank body 100. The etching frame 200 is suspended inside a swing unit 500 provided inside the tank body 100, and the swing units 500 are respectively arranged on both sides of the etching frame 200.
[0034] The swing unit 500 includes a movable frame 510 for driving the corrosion frame 200 to swing and a sliding rod 520 arranged on the inner side of the movable frame 510 for supporting the movable frame 510. The upper end of the sliding rod 520 is limited by a sliding sleeve installed in the inner cavity at the bottom of the trough body 100, and is assisted in movement by internal ball bearings.

[0035] The wafer to be corroded is poured into the corrosion frame 200 for soaking. During soaking, the rotating disk 550 can be driven to rotate by the driving motor, and the eccentric pile 540 installed at the upper end drives the swing frame 530 to move back and forth, thereby driving the movable frames 510 fixed on both sides to move back and forth, thereby driving the corrosion frame 200 mounted on the inner side to swing left and right to prevent the wafer from floating on the surface, so that it is spread out and in contact with the corrosion liquid, thereby facilitating the corrosion operation.
[0036] The upper end of the movable frame 510 is provided with a hanging rod 560 for hanging and installing the corrosion frame 200. Both sides of the hanging rod 560 are telescopically installed in the installation openings set on both sides of the inner cavity of the trough body 100 for limiting the position. The upper end of the corrosion frame 200 is surrounded by a fixed fence 210 for positioning the corrosion frame 200. Both sides of the fixed fence 210 are fixedly provided with hooks 220 for installing and positioning the corrosion frame 200. The hooks 220 match the hanging rod 560 in size. The matching use of the hooks 220 and the hanging rod 560 facilitates the installation and positioning of the corrosion frame 200. After the corrosion is completed, the corrosion frame 200 is removed for transportation, which is convenient for operation.
[0037] The interior of the trough body 100 is provided with a barrier cover 400 for isolating the upper objects and preventing them from falling and being damaged. The barrier cover 400 is snap-fitted and installed at the bottom of the trough body 100. The barrier cover 400 is placed at the lower end of the corrosion frame 200 to prevent the upper end wafers from falling to the lower end and damaging the wafers caused by the equipment at the lower end. The barrier cover protects the wafers and protects the lower end parts at the same time.
[0038] A distribution pipe 140 for replenishing the internal corrosive liquid is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 100, and a first liquid replenishing pipe 110, a second liquid replenishing pipe 120, and a third liquid replenishing pipe 130 for replenishing the corrosive liquid are arranged on one side of the tank body 100. The first liquid replenishing pipe 110, the second liquid replenishing pipe 120, and the third liquid replenishing pipe 130 can be respectively fed with corrosive liquid, cleaning liquid and clean water to replenish the tank body 100. The first liquid replenishing pipe 110, the second liquid replenishing pipe 120, and the third liquid replenishing pipe 130 are respectively connected to the connecting port 141 provided on one side of the upper end of the distribution pipe 140, and are respectively arranged through the baffle cover 400. The first liquid replenishing pipe 110, the second liquid replenishing pipe 120, and the third liquid replenishing pipe 130 are respectively connected to the connecting port 141 provided on one side of the upper end of the distribution pipe 140, and are respectively arranged through the baffle cover 400. 0. The second liquid replenishing tube 120 and the third liquid replenishing tube 130 are respectively connected to the solenoid valve for control. When filling the interior of the tank body 100 with liquid, the corrosion liquid, the cleaning liquid and the clean water can be respectively introduced into the first liquid replenishing tube 110, the second liquid replenishing tube 120 and the third liquid replenishing tube 130 as needed. The liquid can be replaced in time according to specific use, and they are respectively connected to the distribution pipe 140, so that the liquids flushed into the first liquid replenishing tube 110, the second liquid replenishing tube 120 and the third liquid replenishing tube 130 can be evenly and smoothly filled. After corrosion, the tank body 100 can be cleaned with cleaning liquid and clean water, and the tank body 100 can be used to clean the wafers.
[0039] The lower end of the distribution pipe 140 is provided with distribution holes 143 for facilitating the leakage of liquid, thereby facilitating uniform distribution of the liquid inside.
[0040] A drain port 170 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 100 for facilitating the discharge and replacement of the liquid in the tank body 100. The drain ports 170 are all connected to the drain pipe 160 at the lower end, and are all equipped with solenoid valves for blocking. When the internal liquid needs to be discharged and replaced, the solenoid valve is opened, and the liquid inside the tank body 100 is discharged from the drain port 170, making it convenient to replace the liquid.
[0041] Stirring blades 150 for stirring the internal liquid are staggered at the bottom of the inner cavity of the trough body 100. The lower ends of the stirring blades 150 are driven to rotate by a driving motor. When draining the liquid, the driving motor drives the stirring blades 150 to rotate, so that it stirs the liquid, facilitates the stirring and discharge of the bottom sediment, and facilitates drainage.
[0042] A cleaning auxiliary unit 300 for cleaning the internal wafers and the tank body 100 is provided on one side of the tank body 100. The cleaning auxiliary unit 300 includes a tube body connected to the inner cavity of the tank body 100 and a filter pot 310 arranged in the middle of the tube body. The interior can be filled with filter material for use. A pump body 320 for pumping water for flushing is provided on one side of the filter pot 310. An elastic nozzle 330 is installed on one side of the pump body 320. The end of the elastic nozzle 330 is fixed with a brush part 340 for auxiliary cleaning and brushing by screws. When cleaning the wafers and the tank body 100, water is pumped by the pump body 320 for spraying, which is convenient for hand-held flushing of the wafers inside the corrosion frame 200 and the edge of the tank body 100. The brush part 340 assists in brushing to ensure cleaning.
[0043] One end of the cleaning auxiliary unit 300 is connected to the distribution pipe 140 and is connected through the connecting pipe 142, so that the pipe can draw liquid from the inside of the tank 100 for auxiliary cleaning, avoiding blockage of a single liquid intake port affecting the liquid drawing and flushing operation.
[0044] The working principle of an etching tank structure that is easy to clean is as follows: the wafers to be etched are poured into the etching frame 200 for soaking. During soaking, the rotating disk 550 can be driven by a driving motor to rotate, and the eccentric pile 540 installed at the upper end drives the swing frame 530 to move back and forth, thereby driving the movable frames 510 fixed on both sides to move back and forth, and then driving the etching frame 200 mounted on the inner side to swing left and right to prevent the wafers from floating on the surface, so that they are spread out and in contact with the etching liquid, thereby facilitating the etching operation.
[0045] It is understood that the present invention is described by way of certain embodiments, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions may be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are intended to be protected by the present invention.
