Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of optical detection, specifically relates to an optical detection platform and optical detection device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The display field is another important application field of glass substrates besides the semiconductor field such as chips. The high transparency and optical uniformity of glass substrates ensure good optical performance, the excellent flatness guarantees the display quality, the mechanical strength and chemical resistance enable it to cope with various environments, and the thermal stability and low thermal expansion coefficient ensure the stability of the product in high-load operation. In addition, the self-luminous property of glass substrates also makes it particularly important in new display fields such as Micro LED.

[0003] Although the application of glass substrates in the display field brings many advantages, there are also some obvious disadvantages. The following are the main disadvantages of glass substrates:

[0004] Fragility: Compared with organic substrates, the impact resistance and shock resistance of glass substrates are relatively weak, so they are more prone to damage or breakage during manufacturing, transportation and use. This fragility not only increases the risk in the production process, but also may affect the stability and reliability of the packaged chips.

[0005] High processing difficulty: The processing of glass substrates is relatively complex and difficult. Due to its hardness and brittleness, special cutting, grinding and etching techniques are required, which increases the technical difficulty and cost in the manufacturing process. In addition, for fine patterns and wiring, the processing precision requirement of glass substrates is also higher, further increasing the processing difficulty.

[0006] High cost: Compared with organic substrates, the manufacturing cost of glass substrates is usually higher. This is mainly due to its complex processing process, special material requirements and higher technical requirements. High cost may limit the application of glass substrates in low-cost or large-scale production.

[0007] Thermal expansion coefficient mismatch: There may be a mismatch in the thermal expansion coefficient between the glass substrate and the chip material. In an environment with large temperature changes, this mismatch may cause stress concentration, warping or cracking, etc., thereby affecting the reliability and performance of the chip.

[0008] Poor compatibility with existing processes: Due to the characteristics and processing requirements of glass substrates, it may have compatibility problems with existing chip packaging processes. This may require more R&D resources to develop packaging processes suitable for glass substrates, increasing the technical difficulty and cost.

[0009] In view of the above problems, the packaged glass substrate needs to be detected by AOI, but there is a lack of suitable optical detection platform in the actual production process to meet the requirements of feeding and discharging and optical detection mechanism. Utility model content

[0010] In view of all or part of the deficiencies of the prior art described above, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an optical detection platform and an optical detection device, the amount of sag of the product after being lifted is within a controllable range through reasonable arrangement of the number and position of the ejector pins (top PIN) and simulation of the deformation amount, and interference between feeding and discharging is avoided, so that fragments are not caused.

[0011] To achieve the above utility model purpose, the utility model provides the following technical scheme:

[0012] The utility model provides a kind of optical detection platform, including stage and lifting mechanism, the lifting mechanism includes installation platform and ejector pin assembly, the stage and the ejector pin assembly are installed on the installation platform;The ejector pin assembly includes first ejector pin group and second ejector pin group with at least three ejector pins respectively, the first ejector pin group is used to support the side edge of product, the second ejector pin group is used to support the side edge of product, and a plurality of via holes for the ejector pin are provided on the stage.Through the setting of ejector pin (top PIN) mechanism, product and detection platform can be separated, false vacuum between the two is avoided, and abnormal material taking is caused.The utility model sets the ejector pin group at the side edge of product, and each ejector pin group contains at least three ejector pins, and through the simulation of deformation amount, it can be known that this design can make the amount of sag of product after being lifted within a controllable range.Deformation amount will not only directly affect the flatness of product such as glass substrate which is highly related to display quality, and if the amount of sag is too much and exceeds the controllable range, interference will be caused between material taking and placing mechanism during feeding and discharging, and product will be damaged.

[0013] The middle part of the stage is also provided with an in-place inductor between the first ejector pin group and the second ejector pin group;At least two groups of the first ejector pin group are provided on one side of the in-place inductor along the radial direction, and at least two groups of the second ejector pin group are provided on the other side along the radial direction.The in-place inductor is used to sense whether the product to be detected has been in place, two groups of the first ejector pin group and two groups of the second ejector pin group are provided, the first ejector pin group and the second ejector pin group close to the in-place inductor are used to support relatively small size product, and the first ejector pin group and the second ejector pin group away from the in-place inductor are used to support relatively large size product, and the same optical detection platform can meet the taking and placing and detection of products of different sizes.

Under the condition of meeting the deformation amount and the maximum stress, arranging fewer needles, preferably 5, can prevent background influence on optical detection of transparent products such as glass substrates. Through reasonable arrangement of the needles, the product can be prevented from being adhered to the stage due to false vacuum, causing the material to be pulled into fragments, or even unable to take the material.

[0015] The distance between the adjacent first needle group and the second needle group is 150-200mm, the distance between the adjacent two first needle groups or the adjacent two second needle groups is 100-150mm, the distance between the two needles in the same first needle group or second needle group is 100-150mm, and the diameter of the via is 10-20mm.

[0016] The needle includes a vacuum chuck arranged at the top end and a top rod connected with the vacuum chuck, and the mounting platform includes a gas distribution plate in communication with the top rod for gas flow during vacuumizing.

[0018] The carrier is an adsorption carrier, and the adsorption carrier comprises a first adsorption area; the first adsorption area comprises a plurality of first adsorption holes which are linearly arranged on both sides of each of the first needle group and the second needle group. The uniform arrangement of the small holes for adsorption enables the product, such as a transparent glass substrate, to be uniformly adsorbed, thereby solving the problem of Z-direction jumping caused by uneven adsorption of the original adsorption disc / adsorption groove mode.

[0019] The carrier further comprises a second adsorption area, and the first adsorption area and the second adsorption area are connected with a switching valve; the second adsorption area comprises a plurality of second adsorption holes which are linearly arranged on the outer side of the first adsorption area along the circumferential direction of the carrier, and the second adsorption holes are arranged in at least two rows along the radial direction of the carrier.

Under the conditions of meeting the deformation amount and the maximum stress, fewer needles 300 can prevent the background influence on the optical detection of the transparent product (the product in this embodiment is a transparent glass substrate).

[0034] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The stage 1 is further provided with a product in-service inductor 11 in the middle part, between the first needle group 31 and the second needle group 32; two groups of the first needle group 31 are arranged on one side of the in-service inductor 11 in the radial direction, and two groups of the second needle group 32 are arranged on the other side of the in-service inductor 11 in the radial direction.

The distance between the adjacent first needle group 31 and the second needle group 32 is 150-200 mm, the distance between the adjacent two first needle groups 31 is 100-150 mm, the distance between the adjacent two second needle groups 32 is 100-150 mm, the distance between the two needles 300 in the same first needle group 31 is 100-150 mm, the distance between the two needles 300 in the same second needle group 32 is 100-150 mm, and the diameter of the through hole 10 is 10-20 mm.

[0035] With reference to Figure 5 and Figure 6The mounting platform 2 further comprises a first driving assembly 21 and a second driving assembly 22, each of which comprises a mounting plate 201, two guide rails 202 and a sliding table module 203, the guide rails 202 are mounted on the mounting plate 201, and the sliding table module 203 is mounted on the guide rails 202, the first needle group 31 is mounted on the sliding table module 203 of the first driving assembly 21, and the second needle group 32 is mounted on the sliding table module 203 of the second driving assembly 22. The needles 300 on the two first needle groups 31 are driven to rise and fall simultaneously by the first driving assembly 21, and the needles 300 on the two second needle groups 32 are driven to rise and fall simultaneously by the second driving assembly 22. Specifically, the sliding table module 203 is a Z-axis sliding table module, which comprises a connecting plate 204 and a driving motor 205, the driving motor 205 is mounted on the connecting plate 204, the connecting plate 204 is connected with the guide rails 202, and the gas distribution plate 303 is mounted on the connecting plate 204. The two guide rails 202 can make the lifting process more stable and more conducive to the adsorption and bearing of the product by the needle assembly 3.

[0036] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The surface of the carrier 1 is subjected to black hard oxidation treatment; one side of the carrier 1 is provided with an L-shaped positioning piece 101 and a one-letter positioning piece 102. By selecting a suitable surface treatment, the influence of the platform background on optical image taking can be effectively eliminated, and the durability of the platform is also considered; different surface treatment methods will affect the detection and the service life of the carrier 1. The L-shaped positioning piece and the one-letter positioning piece are used for positioning the product when manually feeding. The carrier 1 is an adsorption carrier, which comprises a first adsorption area 12 for adsorbing products; the first adsorption area 12 comprises a plurality of first adsorption holes, which are linearly arranged on both sides of each first needle group 31 and second needle group 32. The carrier 1 further comprises a second adsorption area 13, and the first adsorption area 12 and the second adsorption area 13 are connected with a switching valve 14; the second adsorption area 13 comprises a plurality of second adsorption holes, which are linearly arranged on the outer side of the first adsorption area 12 along the circumference of the carrier 1, and the second adsorption holes are arranged in two rows along the radial direction of the carrier 1. There is an adsorption partition design, and the adsorption area can be automatically or manually switched by opening and closing the switching valve 14 for different specifications of products. When the size of the product is relatively small, only the first adsorption area 12 needs to be opened, and when the size of the product is relatively large, the first adsorption area 12 and the second adsorption area 13 need to be opened at the same time, so as to realize stable adsorption of the glass substrate during detection.

[0037] The product is a transparent glass substrate, and the upper detection camera takes a picture downward, because the carrier 1 as the background will affect the detection, the number of adsorption holes and the top pin 300 needs to be controlled, too many will have a significant impact on the image taking. If the adsorption hole or the top pin 300 is arranged too little or randomly, it will cause uneven adsorption and cause the product surface to present a wavy shape. The design of the embodiment is to arrange about 20 adsorption holes in the vicinity of each via 10 in an orderly manner, which meets the requirements of adsorption force through calculation. Through the reasonable layout of the adsorption hole and the top pin 300, the scheme provided by the utility model can strictly control the deformation amount and the maximum stress of the glass substrate without affecting the detection, so as to meet the requirements of detection and product yield.
