[0041] Please Figure 2 And Figure 3 As shown, the present embodiment provides an insulating clamp 400, which includes a clamp body 10 made of insulating material.
[0042] The clamp body 10 is provided with two mounting through holes 11, and the mounting through holes 11 are used to accommodate tongs.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The use of an insulating clamp is shown. One of the mounting through holes is for the first tong rod 210 to pass through, and the other mounting through hole is for the third tong rod 310 to pass through.
[0044] In combination Figure 3 As shown, the adjacent mounting through holes 11 have a set distance L1, which refers to the minimum distance between the hole walls of the two mounting through holes 11.
[0045] The set distance is based on the distance between the two first tong rods 210 and the third tong rod 310 and the adjustment of the insulating requirement adaptability. In addition, the second tong rod 220 and the fourth tong rod 320 cooperate with another insulating clamp.
[0046] In the present embodiment, the clamp body 10 corresponds to two groups of tongs, so the clamp body 10 is provided with two mounting through holes 11. In other alternative embodiments, the number of mounting through holes 11 can be adaptively adjusted based on the actual number of tongs.
[0047] In this embodiment, two sets of pliers are equipped with two insulating clamps, wherein the first pliers rod 210 and the third pliers rod 310 correspond to one insulating clamp, and the second pliers rod 220 and the fourth pliers rod 320 correspond to another insulating clamp. In other alternative embodiments, two sets of pliers can be provided with an insulating clamp, for example, an insulating clamp is installed on the first pliers rod 210 and the third pliers rod 310, or an insulating clamp is installed on the second pliers rod 220 and the fourth pliers rod 320, and the installation position can be adaptively adjusted based on the actual short-circuit protection requirements. In other alternative embodiments, four mounting holes can also be opened on an insulating clamp to allow four pliers rods to pass through respectively.
[0048] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, at least a portion of each clamp rod is arranged in parallel, and the opening directions of the two mounting holes 11 are parallel. The arrangement of the mounting holes 11 is adapted to the mounting structure of each clamp rod. In other alternative embodiments, the opening directions of the mounting holes 11 can be adjusted to suit the actual clamp rod structure. For example, the opening directions of the mounting holes 11 can be arranged at a certain angle.
[0049] In this embodiment, the clamp body 10 is made of ceramic, which meets the insulation and high temperature resistance requirements of the clamp. In other alternative embodiments, the clamp body 10 can also be made of silicon dioxide or other high temperature resistant insulating materials. The material of the clamp body 10 can be selected based on the adaptability of actual use requirements.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the cross-section of each clamp rod is rectangular, and the mounting through-hole 11 is adaptively configured as a rectangular hole, and the clamp rod is conformably positioned in the mounting through-hole 11. In other alternative embodiments, the specific shape of the mounting through-hole 11 can be adaptively adjusted based on the actual cross-sectional shape of the clamp rod. For example, the mounting through-hole 11 can be configured as a square hole, a circular hole, or the like.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 3As shown, the clamp body 10 comprises a first clamp piece 101 and a second clamp piece 102, both of which are approximately cuboid structures. The first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 are detachably spliced to form the clamp body 10. The first clamp piece 101 is provided with two first recesses 103 on its splicing surface, and the second clamp piece 102 is provided with two second recesses 104 on its splicing surface. After the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 are spliced, one first recess 103 and one second recess 104 form one mounting through hole 11, and the other first recess 103 and the other second recess 104 form another mounting through hole 11.
[0052] Figure 1 Each of the clamp lever rods has a partial bending structure, so it is difficult for the clamp lever rod to pass through its end into the mounting through hole 11. Therefore, in this embodiment, the clamp body 10 is provided with the above-mentioned two-half splicing structure, which facilitates the assembly of the clamp body 10 and each clamp lever rod.
[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a first connecting hole 105 is formed on the first clamp piece 101, and a second connecting hole 106 is formed on the second clamp piece 102. After the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 are spliced, the two connecting holes are oppositely arranged. The first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 are connected into one body through a bolt 20 penetrating through the above-mentioned connecting holes and cooperating with a nut, so as to realize the detachable splicing of the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102. Preferably, the bolt 20 is made of insulating material.
[0054] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamp body 10 is in a strip shape, and each mounting through hole 11 is arranged along the length direction of the clamp body 10, and the opening direction of the mounting through hole 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the clamp body 10. Through this structural arrangement, it is beneficial to distribute more mounting through holes 11 on a smaller cross-sectional shape, which is beneficial to reduce the size of the clamp body 10 on one hand, so as to improve the interference phenomenon with other components, and on the other hand, it is also convenient for the spatial layout of the clamp body 10 in the electronic shower device, and facilitates the installation of the clamp body 10.
[0055] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamp body 10 is in a strip shape, and each mounting through hole 11 is arranged along the length direction of the clamp body 10, and the opening direction of the mounting through hole 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the clamp body 10. Through this structural arrangement, it is beneficial to distribute more mounting through holes 11 on a smaller cross-sectional shape, which is beneficial to reduce the size of the clamp body 10 on one hand, so as to improve the interference phenomenon with other components, and on the other hand, it is also convenient for the spatial layout of the clamp body 10 in the electronic shower device, and facilitates the installation of the clamp body 10.
[0055] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamp body 10 is in a strip shape, and each mounting through hole 11 is arranged along the length direction of the clamp body 10, and the opening direction of the mounting through hole 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the clamp body 10. Through this structural arrangement, it is beneficial to distribute more mounting through holes 11 on a smaller cross-sectional shape, which is beneficial to reduce the size of the clamp body 10 on one hand, so as to improve the interference phenomenon with other components, and on the other hand, it is also convenient for the spatial layout of the clamp body 10 in the electronic shower device, and facilitates the installation of the clamp body 10.
[0056] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, the distance L1 between adjacent mounting holes 11 along the length direction of the clamp body 10 is 10mm-15mm. This distance is suitable for the existing clamp rod structure and also ensures good insulation effect.
[0057] Further, the size L of the clamp body 10 along its length direction is 40mm-50mm. The overall length of the clamp body 10 is limited, which is beneficial to adapt to smaller installation space, increase the application range of the insulation clamp, and prevent interference with adjacent parts. At the same time, L1 is 10mm-15mm, so that the two mounting holes 11 have a reasonable layout on the clamp body 10. Preferably, the two mounting holes 11 are symmetrically arranged along the length direction of the clamp body 10, so that the wall thickness of both ends of the clamp body 10 along its length direction is equal, ensuring good mechanical properties of the clamp body 10.
[0058] Further, the size W of the clamp body 10 along its width direction is 20mm-30mm, and the width direction of the clamp body 10 is perpendicular to the length direction of the clamp body 10 and perpendicular to the opening direction of the mounting hole 11. The overall width of the clamp body 10 is limited, which is beneficial to further adapt to smaller installation space, increase the application range of the insulation clamp, and prevent interference with adjacent parts. This size setting also meets the structural strength requirement when arranging a group of mounting holes 11 in the width direction of the clamp body 10.
[0059] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, another embodiment of the connection between the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102. The first clamp piece 101 is provided with a clamping hole, and the opening of the clamping hole gradually decreases from inside to outside. The second clamp piece 102 is connected with a clamping protrusion 30, and the shape of the clamping protrusion 30 is matched with the clamping hole. The clamping protrusion 30 is elastically deformed and matched in the clamping hole. The clamping protrusion 30 is made of elastic material, such as rubber structure or spring structure. When the clamping protrusion 30 is subjected to external force, it shrinks into the clamping hole, and then the clamping protrusion 30 returns to its original size and is matched in the clamping hole, so as to realize the detachable connection between the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102. In addition, the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 can also be connected by screw connection, such as replacing the bolt with a screw, and preferably using a countersunk screw, so that the entire screw does not protrude from the outer surface of the first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102. The first clamp piece 101 and the second clamp piece 102 can also be connected by other known detachable connection methods, which are not described here,
[0060] The embodiment also provides an electronic shower device, which comprises two sets of tongs and two insulating clamps, and the two sets of tongs are respectively a first tong 200 and a second tong 300.
[0061] One of the insulating clamps is matched with the first tong rod 210 and the third tong rod 310, and one mounting through hole of the insulating clamp is used for passing through the first tong rod 210, and the other mounting through hole is used for passing through the third tong rod 310. In addition, the other insulating clamp is matched with the second tong rod 220 and the fourth tong rod 320, and one mounting through hole of the insulating clamp is used for passing through the second tong rod 220, and the other mounting through hole is used for passing through the fourth tong rod 320.
[0062] In other alternative embodiments, the number of installed insulating clamps can be adjusted adaptively based on the number of sets of tongs.
[0063] The electronic shower device is also called an electron gun, and the insulating clamps are installed in the chamber of the electron gun. The electronic shower device generates electrons by high-voltage pulse ionization, and makes the electrons move along a preset track by a magnetic field. The electronic shower device adopts an existing structure, and the difference lies in the arrangement of the insulating clamps, which will not be described here.
[0064] In the embodiment, an ion implantation equipment is also provided, and the ion implantation equipment is installed with the electronic shower device.
[0065] The ion implantation equipment comprises an ion source, an ion extraction and mass analyzer, an acceleration tube, a scanning system, a process chamber, and a high-vacuum system. The process chamber is provided with a placement site for placing a wafer, and the wafer to be doped is placed on the placement site. The high-vacuum system is used for forming a negative pressure environment in the process chamber. The ion source generates an ion beam, and the ion beam is separated from impurity ions by the ion extraction and mass analyzer, and then is accelerated by the acceleration tube to enter the process chamber to bombard the surface of the wafer, so as to realize ion implantation. The parts of the ion implantation equipment can be consistent with the existing equipment.
[0066] The electronic shower device is used for neutralizing a positively charged ion beam, and preventing the phenomenon of over-neutralization caused by the attraction of electrons to the wafer surface, so as to improve the phenomenon of uneven charge distribution on the wafer surface.
