The lifting platform 625 is provided with a limiting piece 626, which is beneficial for positioning the film-coated quartz glass and controlling the bonding force to avoid damage to the quartz glass and the wafer. The film-coated quartz glass is manually transported from the carrier component 3 to the lifting platform 625, and the uncoated side of the quartz glass is bonded to the upper cavity component 7. When bonding is performed, the bonding lifting component 622 will drive the lifting platform 625 to move upward, which is beneficial for a tighter bonding between the quartz glass and the wafer and a better bonding effect.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 10The upper bonding cavity assembly 7 is located above the lower bonding cavity assembly 6. The upper bonding cavity assembly 7 includes an upper bonding cavity base frame 71, a bonding pressing cylinder 72, and an upper cavity assembly 73. The upper bonding cavity base frame 71 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The bonding pressing cylinder 72 is mounted on the upper bonding cavity base frame 71. The output end of the bonding pressing cylinder 72 is connected to the upper cavity assembly 73 and is used to drive the upper cavity assembly 73 downward to form a sealed space between the upper cavity and the lower cavity. The upper cavity assembly 73 includes an upper cavity connecting plate 731. The upper cavity housing 734, bonding suction plate 735, and bonding vacuum assembly are included. The upper cavity assembly 73 is connected to the output end of the bonding pressure cylinder 72 via the upper cavity connecting plate 731. The upper cavity housing 734 is connected to the cavity connecting plate. The bonding suction plate 735 is located inside the upper cavity housing 734 and is used to adsorb wafers. The bonding vacuum assembly is used to perform vacuum treatment inside the upper cavity housing 734. The diameter of the lower cavity housing 621 is smaller than that of the upper cavity housing 734. The lifting platform 625 is correspondingly set with the bonding suction plate 735.
[0057] In specific implementation: the bonding upper cavity assembly 7 includes a bonding upper cavity base frame 71, a bonding lower pressure cylinder 72, and an upper cavity assembly 73. The upper cavity assembly 73 includes an upper cavity connecting plate 731, an upper cavity lifting guide rail 732, an upper cavity connecting block 733, an upper cavity outer shell 734, a bonding suction plate 735, a bonding vacuum assembly, and a vacuum control switch 736. The bonding upper cavity base frame 71 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The frame 1 is equipped with a control box 11, which is used to control the bonding switch and the bonding lower pressure cylinder. Cylinder 72 is mounted on the bonding upper cavity base frame 71 and fixedly connected to it. The output end of the bonding pressing cylinder 72 is connected to the upper cavity assembly 73 and is used to drive the upper cavity assembly 73 to press down. The upper cavity connecting plate 731 is fixedly connected to the output end of the bonding pressing cylinder 72. An upper cavity lifting guide rail 732 is provided on the inner side of the upper cavity base frame 71. The upper cavity connecting plate 731 is connected to the upper cavity lifting guide rail 732 through the upper cavity connecting block 733 and forms a slidable connection with the upper cavity base frame 71. The cavity housing 734 is connected to the cavity connecting plate. The bonding suction plate 735 is located inside the upper cavity housing 734 and is used to adsorb the wafer. The diameter of the lower cavity housing 621 is smaller than that of the upper cavity housing 734. The lifting platform 625 is correspondingly set with the bonding suction plate 735, which is beneficial to the alignment of the quartz glass and the wafer, making the bonding more accurate. The bonding pressing cylinder 72 drives the upper cavity assembly 73 to press down, and the bonding lifting assembly 622 drives the lifting platform 625 to rise. The upper cavity assembly 73 and the lower cavity form a closed cavity space for bonding. The vacuum assembly evacuates the sealed space of the cavity, effectively preventing air bubbles from forming during bonding. The vacuum control switch 736 is located on one side of the bonding upper cavity base 71 and is used to control whether to evacuate the sealed space of the cavity. In a specific embodiment, the bonding suction plate 735 is provided with a limiting ring, which allows the wafer to be manually adsorbed onto the bonding suction plate 735, and the limiting ring ensures accurate placement. Turning on the vacuum control switch 736 and the control box 11 enables vacuum bonding, effectively improving the bonding effect.
