[0004] Existing technologies use placement tanks and heating components to fix and dry semiconductor chips, but certain shortcomings still exist in practical use:

[0005] 1. In the existing technology, the heating components and the chip are in relatively fixed positions during the chip drying process, which makes it impossible to dry the semiconductor chip from multiple angles. This may lead to uneven heating of the semiconductor chip, thereby reducing the drying effect, prolonging the operation time of the drying step, and reducing production efficiency.

[0006] 2. Existing technologies lack a design for further fixing the chip during the chip drying process. Simple placement slots cannot well accommodate and fix semiconductor chips of different thicknesses, and may even cause displacement or detachment during the chip drying process. Utility Model Content

[0007] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a drying device that facilitates semiconductor chip processing.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Example 1:

[0028] Reference Appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 and appendix Figure 3A drying device for semiconductor chip processing includes a base 10, a support 11 fixedly mounted on the base 10, and a housing 12 fixedly mounted on the base 10 within the support 11. The housing 12 forms a drying chamber 32, and a door panel 13 is rotatably mounted on one side of the housing 12. Multiple hinges 14 connect the door panel 13 and the housing 12. The drying chamber 32 formed inside the housing 12 is the drying area for semiconductor chips. Production personnel can open the device by cooperating with the door panel 13 and the hinges 14 to place the semiconductor chips to be dried into the drying chamber 32 for drying. The specific hinges 14 are existing technology, and different sizes can be purchased according to different requirements during equipment manufacturing. This solution will not elaborate further.

[0029] Further, see attached document. Figure 1 Appendix Figure 3 and appendix Figure 4 An air source 15 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bracket 11. A heating chamber 16 is connected to the lower surface of the top plate of the outer shell 12 below the air source 15. Multiple metal heating meshes 17 are fixedly installed inside the heating chamber 16. Multiple first vent holes 18 are provided below the metal heating meshes 17 on the lower surface of the heating chamber 16. A support column 19 is also fixedly installed on the lower surface of the heating chamber 16. An air supply cylinder 20 is provided on the outside of the support column 19. Multiple second vent holes 21 are provided on the air supply cylinder 20. The air source 15 can continuously draw air into the heating chamber 16. The multiple metal heating meshes 17 in the heating chamber 16 can be heated into dry high-temperature air by the air flow. Subsequently, part of the dry high-temperature air is sprayed downward to the surface of the semiconductor chip, and another part of the dry high-temperature air is transported downward through the air supply cylinder 20 and sprayed outward from the multiple second vent holes 21 on the outer circumference of the air supply cylinder 20, spraying towards the semiconductor chip from a side angle.

[0030] Further, see attached document. Figure 1 With appendix Figure 5 The outer casing 12 also has multiple third vent holes 33 on its side. After the high-temperature airflow carries away the moisture from the semiconductor chip, it can be discharged through the third vent holes 33.

[0031] Further, see attached document. Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and appendix Figure 6 A drive motor 23 is fixedly installed inside the base 10. A turntable 24 is rotatably installed on the base 10. The output end of the drive motor 23 is connected to the lower end face of the turntable 24. Multiple second gears 25 are rotatably installed on the turntable 24. A first gear 22 is fixedly installed in the middle of the multiple second gears 25 at the lower end face of the support column 19. Multiple detachable placement plates 26 are provided on the upper end face of each second gear 25 along the vertical direction. Adjacent placement plates 26 are supported by the support column 29. Each placement plate 26 is provided with a fixing component.

[0032] The drive motor 23 can drive the turntable 24 to rotate. During the rotation of the turntable 24, multiple second gears 25 are driven by the turntable 24 to revolve. Since a first gear 22 is fixedly set in the middle of the multiple second gears 25, and the multiple second gears 25 are meshed with the first gear 22, the multiple second gears 25 will also rotate on their own axis in cooperation with the first gear 22 during the revolution, and drive multiple fixed components on the second gears 25 to complete their own rotation while revolving. During drying, multiple semiconductor chips are fixed on each placement tray 26. The above settings enable the placement trays to dry the semiconductor chips from multiple angles by high-temperature airflow through revolution and rotation during the drying process, thereby improving the drying effect and shortening the drying time.

[0033] Specifically, initially, production personnel can open the door panel 13 and take out multiple placement trays 26 from the drying chamber 32. Each placement tray 26 is equipped with a fixing component, which allows production personnel to stably fix semiconductor chips onto the placement tray 26. After fixing, production personnel can continue to put the placed tray 26 back onto the second gear 25. During the entire process of fixing semiconductor chips, production personnel can control the drive motor 23 to rotate the turntable 24 to the adjacent position of the door panel 13, making it convenient for production personnel to take out the placement tray 26.

[0034] During drying, the air source 15 is first turned on to continuously draw air into the heating chamber 16. Multiple metal heating meshes 17 inside the heating chamber 16 are responsible for heating the passing air into dry, high-temperature air. Subsequently, part of the air is sprayed downwards from the first vent 18 below the heating chamber 16 onto the surface of the semiconductor chip, while another part of the air is sprayed from the outer surface onto the semiconductor chip through the air delivery cylinder 20 and the second vent 21 on it.

[0035] Meanwhile, the drive motor 23 in the base 10 drives the turntable 24 to rotate. Multiple second gears 25 are rotatably arranged on the turntable 24. When the turntable 24 rotates, the multiple second gears 25 are revolving. A first gear 22 is fixedly arranged on the lower end face of the support column 19 between the multiple second gears 25. During the revolving process of the multiple second gears 25, each second gear 25 meshes with the first gear 22, so that the multiple second gears 25 can rotate on their own axis while revolving. This allows the multiple placement disks 26 on the second gears 25 and the multiple semiconductor chips to be subjected to high-temperature airflow at different angles. The high-temperature airflow carries away the moisture of the semiconductors and is discharged from the third vent 33.

[0036] After drying, production personnel can first open the door panel 13 to remove the placement tray 26 from the drying chamber 32, and then remove the multiple semiconductor chips from the fixing components. Example 2:

[0037] Reference Appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and appendix Figure 6 The fixing component includes multiple rubber fixing clips 27 arranged in a circumferential array on the placement plate 26. A fixing seat 30 is also fixedly installed at the center of the upper end face of the placement plate 26. A circular pressure plate 31 is rotatably installed inside the fixing seat 30. The fixing seat 30 and the circular pressure plate 31 are engaged with each other by threads.

[0038] As a further embodiment, considering that different semiconductor chips have different thicknesses, the multiple rubber clamps 27 on the placement tray 26 are arranged in pairs. Each pair of rubber clamps 27 can fix one semiconductor chip. The rubber clamps 27 are made of high-temperature resistant material, and the rubber itself has a certain elasticity. During installation, the production personnel only need to pry open the rubber clamps 27 and insert the semiconductor chip into them. Considering that the device will drive multiple semiconductor chips to revolve and rotate during the entire drying process, in order to enhance the stability of semiconductor chip fixing, the production personnel can rotate the circular pressure plate 31 to press the semiconductor chip downward and fix the semiconductor chip tightly on the placement tray 26 by means of threaded engagement.

[0039] Further, see attached document. Figure 4 With appendix Figure 6 Each rubber clamp 27 has a groove with a fixing corrugation 28. The fixing corrugation 28 not only increases the air permeability but also increases the friction on the inside of the rubber clamp 27, so that the rubber clamp 27 can fix the semiconductor chip more stably.
