Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wafer processing, in particular to a wafer cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] A wafer refers to a silicon chip used to make silicon semiconductor circuits. It is formed from silicon crystal rods after grinding, polishing, and slicing to form silicon wafers, also known as wafers. During the wafer production process, tiny particles and various chemical residues are often attached to the surface of the wafer. Therefore, the wafer needs to be cleaned during the production process to remove these tiny particles and chemical residues, which affect the wafer quality and cause wafer defects. At the same time, cleaning the wafer can improve the surface smoothness of the wafer, laying the foundation for other subsequent processes. When cleaning the wafer, a cleaning basket needs to be used to fix the wafer. However, the cleaning baskets commonly used on the market will cover part of the edge of the wafer when fixing the wafer, resulting in incomplete cleaning.
[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent publication number CN221708686U discloses a cleaning fixture for placing wafers flat or vertically, including a quadrangular prism structure and positioning pins with a trapezoidal cross-section. The quadrangular prism structure is made of quartz material and is placed in a position that fits the outer frame of the wafer. A circular arc handle structure is provided on one side and a columnar structure with a limited height is provided on the other side. A circular hole structure is provided at the end of the columnar structure, and the size of the circular hole and the positioning pin form an interference fit.
[0004] In view of the problem in the above technology that the edge of the wafer is covered when the wafer is fixed, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the edge of the wafer, a wafer cleaning device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0027] Hereinafter, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.
[0028] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] Example 1:
[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a wafer cleaning device includes a cleaning box 1 and a cleaning basket 6, wherein both ends of the cleaning basket 6 are fixedly connected to a stabilizing plate 9, one end of the stabilizing plate 9 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 23, one end of the limiting groove 23 is slidably connected to a clamping rod 10 and a clamping rod 2 11, and both ends of the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 are rotatably connected to rollers 17, one end of the cleaning basket 6 is fixedly connected to a clamping motor 12, a power output end of the clamping motor 12 is fixedly connected to a driving plate 14, and one end of the driving plate 14 is movably connected to the roller 17;
[0031] Before cleaning, the wafer can be installed between multiple clamping rods 10 and clamping rods 11. There are two clamping rods 10 and four clamping rods 11, which can be divided into three groups. The two groups take turns to clamp the wafer. When in use, the roller 17 is close to the edge of the driving plate 14. The driving plate 14 has three arc-shaped bosses and three arc-shaped grooves. When the outermost side of the arc-shaped boss of the driving plate 14 is squeezed to the edge of the roller 17, the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 11 at the corresponding position can slide outward and no longer clamp the wafer. The clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 11 moved to the arc-shaped groove can clamp the wafer and fix it during cleaning. Different positions of the wafer can be clamped in turn during cleaning, so as to avoid cleaning dead corners on the wafer that are always covered.
[0032] In this embodiment, one end of the clamping motor 12 is fixedly connected to the support platform 13, one end of the stabilizing plate 9 is fixedly connected to the support platform 2 22, one end of the support platform 13 and the support platform 2 22 is fixedly connected to the limit rod 15, one end of the limit rod 15 is fixedly connected to the spring 16, and one end of the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 is respectively fixedly connected to the spring 16;
[0033] Spring 16 can cooperate with the limiting rod 15 to clamp the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 inward, so that the roller 17 on one side of the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 can roll close to the drive plate 14 to achieve clamping.
[0034] In this embodiment, one end of the clamping rod 10 is fixedly connected to the mounting rod 19, and one end of the mounting rod 19 and the clamping rod 2 11 are respectively slidably connected to the buffer rod 18, and one end of the buffer rod 18 is fixedly connected to a plurality of clamping claws 21, and one end of the clamping claw 21 is fixedly connected to the spring 20;
[0035] The mounting rod 19 is mounted on the clamping rod 10 on both sides by snapping. The wafer can be taken and placed by removing the mounting rod 19 on the two clamping rods 10. When in use, the spring 20 drives the clamping claw 21 to clamp the wafer. When switching between the two groups, the clamping claws 21 on the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 can clamp the wafer at the same time. This can prevent the situation where both groups of clamping rods 10 and clamping rods 11 do not clamp the wafer, causing the wafer to lose its fixation and slip and be damaged.
[0036] In this embodiment, before cleaning, the wafer can be installed between multiple clamping rods 10 and clamping rods 11. The number of clamping rods 10 is two, and the number of clamping rods 11 is four, which can be divided into three groups. The two groups take turns to clamp the wafer. When in use, the roller 17 is close to the edge of the driving plate 14. The driving plate 14 is shaped with three arc-shaped bosses and three arc-shaped grooves. When the outermost side of the arc-shaped bosses of the driving plate 14 is squeezed to the edge of the roller 17, the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 11 at the corresponding position can slide outward and no longer clamp the wafer. The clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 11 moved to the arc-shaped groove can clamp the wafer and fix it during cleaning. During cleaning, different positions of the wafer can be clamped in turn, which can avoid having a cleaning dead corner on the wafer that is always covered.
[0037] The spring 16 can cooperate with the limiting rod 15 to clamp the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 inward, so that the roller 17 on one side of the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 can roll against the drive plate 14 to achieve clamping;
[0038] The mounting rod 19 is mounted on the clamping rod 10 on both sides by snapping. The wafer can be taken and placed by removing the mounting rod 19 on the two clamping rods 10. When in use, the spring 20 drives the clamping claw 21 to clamp the wafer. When switching between the two groups, the clamping claws 21 on the clamping rod 10 and the clamping rod 2 11 can clamp the wafer at the same time. This can prevent the situation where both groups of clamping rods 10 and clamping rods 11 do not clamp the wafer, causing the wafer to lose its fixation and slip and be damaged.

[0040] A wafer cleaning device, this embodiment makes the following improvements on the basis of embodiment 1, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, one end of the cleaning box 1 is fixedly connected to the rotating motor 2, and the inside of the cleaning box 1 is rotatably connected to the docking seat 7, one side of the docking seat 7 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the rotating motor 2, and both ends of the cleaning basket 6 are fixedly connected to the docking plug 8, and one end of the docking plug 8 is fixedly connected to the docking seat 7;
[0041] The cleaning box 1 is a model that can emit ultrasonic waves, which can perform ultrasonic vibrations on the internal liquid to improve the cleaning effect. When in use, the docking seat 7 can be used to fix the docking plug 8, and then the rotating motor 2 can drive the cleaning basket 6 and the internal wafer to rotate when working to improve the cleaning effect.
[0042] In this embodiment, a water nozzle track 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning box 1, and a plurality of double-headed nozzles 5 are slidably connected to one end of the water nozzle track 3.
