[0038] Specifically, when it is needed to dry the surface of the wafer 01, the first supporting rod 32 rotates, driving the drying lamp 31 perpendicular to the first supporting rod 32 to rotate around the axis of the first supporting rod 32 until the drying lamp 31 moves to the first working position, and then the drying lamp 31 dries the glue liquid on the surface of the wafer 01.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present scheme, the drying lamp 31 extends in the horizontal direction, and when the drying lamp 31 is in the first working position, the drying lamp 31 is arranged opposite to the wafer 01 on the rotating table 12.
[0040] Further, the device further comprises a first driving member, the first driving member is arranged on the second base and is drivingly connected with the first supporting rod 32, so as to rotate the first supporting rod 32.

By arranging the third base and the gluing part 22, the position of the gluing nozzle 21 can be accurately controlled and flexibly adjusted to smoothly glue the surface of the wafer 01.
[0042] Specifically, when it is needed to glue the surface of the wafer 01, the gluing part 22 drives the gluing nozzle 21 to move from the second avoiding position to the second working position, at this time, the gluing nozzle 21 is arranged oppositely to the rotary table 12, the rotary table 12 drives the wafer 01 to start rotating, and the gluing nozzle 21 sprays the glue liquid to the surface of the wafer 01. After gluing, the gluing nozzle 21 is located outside the rotary table 12.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present scheme, when the gluing nozzle 21 is in the second working position, the gluing nozzle 21 is coaxially arranged with the wafer 01. In this way, the uniformity of spin coating can be improved.
[0044] Further, the gluing part 22 comprises a second supporting rod 221 and the gluing nozzle 21, the second supporting rod 221 comprises a first rod segment 2211 and a second rod segment 2212 connected to each other, the first rod segment 2211 is perpendicular to the second rod segment 2212, the extension direction of the first rod segment 2211 is parallel to the axis direction of the rotary table 12, the first rod segment 2211 is located outside the rotary table 12, and the end of the first rod segment 2211 away from the second rod segment 2212 is rotatably arranged on the third base, and the gluing nozzle 21 is arranged at the end of the second rod segment 2212 away from the first rod segment 2211. By arranging the second supporting rod 221 and arranging the first rod segment 2211 and the second rod segment 2212 on the second supporting rod 221, the adjustment of the spatial position of the gluing nozzle 21 is more accurate and reliable.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present scheme, when it is needed to change the spatial position of the gluing nozzle 21, the first rod segment 2211 is first rotated, which drives the second rod segment 2212 to rotate around the axis of the first rod segment 2211, and thus drives the gluing nozzle 21 arranged at the end of the second rod segment 2212 away from the first rod segment 2211 to rotate around the axis of the first rod segment 2211, so as to adjust the spatial position of the gluing nozzle 21.
[0046] Further, the device further comprises a second driving member, the second driving member is arranged on the third base, and the second driving member is in driving connection with the first rod segment 2211 to drive the first rod segment 2211 to rotate.
[0047] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 Further, the wafer surface treatment device further comprises an aligning mechanism 60, the aligning mechanism 60 comprises an aligning part 61, and the aligning part 61 is used to adjust the coaxiality of the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12.

[0048] Further, the aligning mechanism 60 comprises a support frame 50 and the aligning part 61, the aligning part 61 is arranged outside the rotating table 12, the aligning part 61 is movably arranged on the support frame 50, the distance between the aligning part 61 and the rotating table 12 is adjustable, and the side of the aligning part 61 facing the rotating table 12 has an abutting surface 601, which is used to abut the peripheral surface of the wafer 01. In the embodiment of the present scheme, two aligning parts 61 are arranged, and the two aligning parts 61 are oppositely arranged on the two sides of the rotating table 12, and the shape of the abutting surface 601 is matched with the peripheral surface of the wafer 01.
[0049] The wafer surface treatment device further comprises a third driving member, the third driving member is arranged on the support frame 50, and the third driving member is in driving connection with the two aligning parts 61 respectively to adjust the distance between the two aligning parts 61. In this way, the positions of the two aligning parts 61 can be accurately and synchronously adjusted to realize accurate adjustment of the coaxiality of the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12.
[0050] Specifically, after the grabbing mechanism 40 places the wafer 01 on the rotating table 12, the third driving member drives the two aligning parts 61 to gradually and synchronously approach the rotating table 12. As the two aligning parts 61 gradually approach the rotating table 12, the abutting surfaces 601 of the two aligning parts 61 contact the peripheral surface of the wafer 01. The two aligning parts 61 are slightly moved to adjust the position of the wafer 01, so that the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12 have high coaxiality, the aligning operation is completed, and then the third driving member drives the two aligning parts 61 to synchronously move away from the rotating table 12, so as to perform the next step of coating the surface of the wafer 01.
[0051] In the scheme, the support frame 50 provides stable support for the alignment part 61, so that the movement process of the alignment part 61 is more accurate and stable. The two alignment parts 61 work together to adjust the coaxiality of the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12, ensure the good coaxiality of the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12, and improve the stability of the rotating table 12 driving the wafer 01 to rotate, which is conducive to the uniformity of the wafer 01 surface gluing, and also improves the safety of the wafer 01 rotation, reduces the instability of the wafer 01 rotation caused by the misalignment of the wafer 01 and the rotating table 12, and improves the reliability of the wafer surface treatment device.
[0052] Further, the first base 11 has a mounting port and a negative pressure cavity in communication with each other, the mounting port is in communication with the top of the negative pressure cavity, the rotating table 12 has a communication hole, a negative pressure channel and a suction port in turn, the bottom end of the rotating table 12 is rotatably arranged in the negative pressure cavity, the rotating table 12 is sealingly matched with the mounting port, the communication hole is in communication with the negative pressure cavity, the top surface of the rotating table 12 forms a bearing surface, and the suction port is arranged on the bearing surface.

For example, if the device in the drawing is inverted, the device described as "above" or "on" other devices or structures will be positioned "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the example term "above" can include both "above" and "below" orientations. The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative description used herein is interpreted accordingly.
[0066] In addition, it needs to be explained that the use of "first", "second" and the like to limit parts is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding parts, and the above words have no special meaning unless otherwise stated, therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of protection of the present application.
[0067] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
