DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model clearer and more apparent, the utility model will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model, that is, the described examples are only a part of the examples of the utility model, but not all the examples. The components of the utility model embodiments described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0029] Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the drawings below is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but only represents selected embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 It is shown that the embodiment provides a spliced structure slide device, which comprises a bottom frame 1 and a tray 2 placed on the bottom frame 1, the tray 2 is provided with one or more than one, and a plurality of grooves 21 are processed on the upper surface of the tray 2, and the bottom of the groove 21 is provided with a support column 24 and an air release hole 25.

[0031] Further, the air release hole 25 is arranged around the support column 24, and the air release is performed when the slide is taken.

[0032] Specifically, the bottom frame 1 is made of metal material, such as heat-resistant stainless steel or titanium alloy and other high-temperature-resistant metal materials, which is firm, durable, low in cost and prolongs the service life of the slide device. The tray 2 is made of graphite material, which has the characteristics of wear resistance, high temperature resistance, high strength, not easy to deform, stable chemical properties and the like.

[0033] The embodiment adopts the split assembling structure of the bottom frame 1 and the tray 2, the groove 21 is used for horizontally containing the substrate 3, the assembling gap between the bottom frame 1 and the tray 2 is small, about 0.1-0.2mm, avoiding the tray 2 shaking in the bottom frame 1 when driving and taking the substrate. The tray 2 adopts the solid graphite tray structure, which reduces the cost and the deformation, ensures the uniformity of the film, and prevents the phenomenon of around plating. The groove 21 is provided with a supporting column 24 and a gas releasing hole 25 at the bottom, the supporting column 24 provides the supporting action for the substrate 3 contained in the groove 21, avoiding the taking failure caused by the substrate 3 sinking and deforming when taking the substrate. After the substrate 3 is horizontally placed on the groove 21, a closed space is formed between the substrate 3 and the groove 21, which will affect the taking of the substrate 3 due to the vacuum adsorption force in the moment of taking the substrate. At this time, the gas releasing hole 25 can release the gas into the groove 21, avoiding the vacuum between the substrate 3 and the groove 21, so as to smoothly take the substrate.

[0034] It should be noted that the tray 2 can adopt a whole graphite, but the graphite plate material of large size is expensive, in order to save the cost, two or more trays 2 can be placed on the bottom frame 1.

[0035] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the upper surface of the tray 2 is also processed with a plurality of uniform heating grooves 23. Since two or more trays 2 are placed on the bottom frame 1, the tray 2 located between the two trays 2 is only processed with the uniform heating grooves 23 on the two sides, and the tray 2 located at the two ends is processed with the uniform heating grooves 23 on the three sides, so that the uniform heating grooves 23 are arranged around the collection of all the grooves 21, reducing the edge effect and being beneficial to improving the uniformity of the heating of the substrate 3.

[0036] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the groove 21 is provided with a second step 22, and the substrate 3 is horizontally placed on the second step 22.

[0037] Specifically, the tray 2 is a solid graphite tray with a thickness of about 5mm, the upper surface of the tray 2 is milled with a groove 21 with a depth of about 3.5mm, and the inner circumferential wall of the groove 21 is further left with a second step 22 with a height of about 0.5mm higher than the bottom of the groove 21, which is used for placing the substrate 3. The tray 2 is milled with uniform heating grooves 23 with the same depth as the groove 21, reducing the edge effect and being beneficial to improving the uniformity of the heating of the silicon wafer. The bottom center of the groove 21 is left with a supporting column 24 with a height of about 0.5mm, which provides the supporting action for the substrate 3, avoiding the taking failure caused by the substrate 3 sinking and deforming when taking the substrate.

[0038] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2As shown, the bottom frame 1 is a quadrilateral frame with a first step 18 at the inner periphery, and the tray 2 is horizontally placed on the first step 18. The quadrilateral frame forms a retaining edge, and the assembly gap between the retaining edge and the tray 2 is small, which prevents the tray 2 from shaking in the bottom frame 1 during transmission and picking and placing. The bottom frame 1 includes two oppositely arranged long side frame rib plates 11 and two oppositely arranged end side frame rib plates 14. The two end side frame rib plates 14 are each provided with an end bottom plate 15 extending towards the other end side frame rib plate 14. One or more than one middle rib plate 12 is arranged inside the bottom frame 1, and the two ends of the middle rib plate 12 are arranged on the two end bottom plates 15.

[0039] Further, the two ends of the middle rib plate 12 are provided with overlapping grooves with the same thickness as the end bottom plate 15. The side of the middle rib plate 12 with the grooves is flush with the bottom surface of the end bottom plate 15, and the two sides of the side opposite to the overlapping grooves are provided with circular arc chamfers, which reduces the shielding of the heat radiation of the heating plate, improves the heating speed and heating uniformity of the tray 2, and eliminates the existence of the corner line on the side of the middle rib plate 12 in contact with the tray 2, thereby reducing the damage to the tray 2.

[0040] Specifically, the two ends of the middle rib plate 12 are provided with internal thread holes, and the end side frame rib plate 14 is provided with assembly holes corresponding to the internal thread holes. The metal screw is screwed into the internal thread hole through the assembly hole, so as to connect the two ends of the middle rib plate 12 to the end side frame rib plate 14. The two ends of the long side frame rib plate 11 are also connected to the end side frame rib plate 14 by metal screws, and the end bottom plate 15 is also connected to the long side frame rib plate 11 and the end side frame rib plate 14 by metal screws. The material of the metal screw is preferably the same as that of the bottom frame 1.

[0041] Further, the bottom surface of the end bottom plate 15 is surface treated to increase the surface roughness, thereby avoiding transmission slip. The surface treatment can be shot blasting and / or etching, for example, 300 mesh or so of glass sand is sprayed on the bottom surface of the end bottom plate 15.

[0042] In some embodiments, one or more than one connecting shaft 13 is arranged between the long side frame rib plate 11 and the adjacent middle rib plate 12 and / or between the two adjacent middle rib plates 12. The two ends of the connecting shaft 13 are provided with thread holes, and the long side frame rib plate and the middle rib plate are provided with connecting holes 16 corresponding to the thread holes. The assembly screw 17 is screwed into the thread hole through the connecting hole 16. The material of the assembly screw 17 is preferably the same as that of the bottom frame 1.

[0043] Further, the connecting shaft 13 is in a cylindrical shape, and the surface of the connecting shaft 13 is lower than the side of the middle rib plate 12 provided with the circular arc chamfer. When the tray 2 is installed on the first step 18, the side of the middle rib plate 12 provided with the circular arc chamfer supports the tray 2, and the tray 2 does not contact the connecting shaft 13, which reduces the shielding of the heat radiation of the heating plate and improves the heating speed and heating uniformity of the tray 2.

[0044] Further, the center lines of the connecting shafts 13 and the adjacent two connecting shafts 13 are located on different straight lines in the same horizontal plane.

[0045] In the description of the utility model, it needs to explain, unless another explicit stipulation and limit, the term " install " " link " " connection " and so on should do the broad sense understanding, for example, can be fixed connection, also can be detachable connection, or integrally connected, can be mechanical connection, also can be electrical connection, can be directly connected, also can indirectly connect through the intermediate medium, can be the communication inside two elements. For the ordinary skilled person in the art, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0046] The above content is merely an example and description of the structure of the utility model, and the skilled person in the art can make various modifications or supplements or adopt similar ways to replace the described specific embodiments, as long as it does not deviate from the structure of the utility model or exceed the scope defined by the present claims, which shall belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
