Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a transfer mechanism for chip testing, belonging to the field of chip testing. Background Technology
[0002] In the highly precise and competitive semiconductor manufacturing industry, chip testing plays a crucial role, serving as the cornerstone for ensuring that the final product meets established quality and performance standards. However, the chip transfer process, from the busy production line to the sophisticated testing equipment, often becomes the weakest link in the entire process. Currently, the industry's commonly used transfer methods still rely primarily on manual handling or the use of simple mechanized devices. These methods are not only inefficient and unable to meet the high-paced, high-efficiency demands of modern semiconductor production, but also have significant shortcomings in terms of chip transfer stability and security.
[0003] Specifically, manual hand-held transfer relies on the operator's individual skills and attention, making it difficult to guarantee ideal stability and consistency in every transfer. While simple mechanized devices can alleviate the burden of manpower to some extent, they often lack the necessary intelligent and automated control, failing to accurately handle the various complex situations during chip transfer. This instability can not only lead to physical damage to chips during transfer but also cause safety accidents due to improper operation, resulting in unnecessary losses for companies and employees. More importantly, chips, as high-precision, high-value electronic products integrating countless tiny circuits and components, are extremely sensitive to dust, impurities, and other contaminants on their surface and internal structure. During transfer, even tiny particles can cause fatal damage to chips, leading to testing errors, performance degradation, or even complete failure. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a transfer mechanism for chip testing, including an electric slide rail 1 and a support base 2 fixedly connected to the top of the mover of the electric slide rail 1. The top of the support base 2 is provided with a storage component for protecting the transferred chip.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the storage assembly includes a storage box 3 disposed on the top of the support base 2, a chip placement pad 4 fixedly connected to the inside of the storage box 3, two electric push rods 5, and a clamping pad block 6 fixedly connected to the end of the movable rod of the electric push rod 5.
[0027] The inside of the support base 2 is equipped with a dust-collecting component for keeping the inside of the storage box 3 clean.
[0028] It should be noted that the dust collection assembly includes a suction fan 7 fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the support base 2, a connecting pipe 8 fixedly connected to the suction end of the suction fan 7, a collection box 9 fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 8, a dust collection pipe 10 fixedly connected to the collection port of the collection box 9, and a sleeve 11 sleeved on the outside of the dust collection pipe 10. Through the setting of the dust collection assembly, dust and impurities inside the storage box 3 can be effectively removed, ensuring that the transferred chips are in a clean environment and avoiding test errors or chip damage caused by dust and other factors.
[0029] The chip placement pad 4 has a fixing port on its inner side that is compatible with the sleeve 11. The sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing port. The upper surface of the support base 2 has a through-hole that is compatible with the sleeve 11. The bottom of the storage box 3 has a connection port that is compatible with the sleeve 11. The bottom end of the sleeve 11 passes through the connection port and the through-hole in sequence and extends to the inner side of the support base 2. This design allows the suction pipe 10 to be stably connected to the sleeve 11, ensuring the continuity and stability of the suction effect. At the same time, it also facilitates the installation and maintenance of the suction components.
[0030] The support base 2 has a maintenance door hinged to its front, and a ventilation opening is provided on the front of the maintenance door. A baffle 12 is fixedly connected to the inside of the collection box 9. The maintenance door facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the dust collection components. The design of the ventilation opening ensures that the fan 7 receives sufficient airflow during operation, thereby improving dust collection efficiency. The baffle 12 prevents debris from entering the fan 7.
[0031] The storage box 3 has four corners at the bottom that are fixedly connected to the plug 13. The four corners of the upper surface of the support base 2 are respectively provided with sockets that are compatible with the plug 13. This design allows the storage box 3 to be stably fixed on the support base 2, preventing it from shaking or falling off during transportation and ensuring the safe transportation of the chip.
[0032] Two electric push rods 5 are respectively arranged on the inner left and inner right walls of the storage box 3. The chip placement pad 4 is arranged on the inner bottom wall of the storage box 3 and located between the left and right clamping pads 6. The top of the storage box 3 is hinged with a sealing box cover 301. The left and right clamping pads 6 are all equipped with pressure sensors. The arrangement of the electric push rods 5 and the clamping pads 6 can achieve stable clamping of the chip and prevent damage caused by shaking during transportation. At the same time, the pressure sensors built into the clamping pads 6 can monitor the clamping force in real time to ensure the safety of the chip.
[0033] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0034] To ensure the cleanliness of the storage box 3, a negative pressure is first generated by the suction fan 7 to draw dust and impurities inside the storage box 3 into the collection box 9 through the sleeve 11 and the suction pipe 10. After the suction is completed, the chip is placed on the chip placement pad 4 of the storage box 3. At this time, the electric push rod 5 is activated. When the electric push rod 5 is activated, its movable rod will push the clamping pad 6 closer to the chip placement pad 4 until a stable clamping is formed on the chip. The clamping pads 6 on both the left and right sides are equipped with pressure sensors. These sensors can monitor the clamping force in real time to ensure that the chip will not be damaged due to excessive clamping or fall off due to excessive clamping during the transfer process. Finally, the sealing box cover 301 is closed to seal and protect the chip during the transfer process, and the electric slide rail 1 is activated to start the transfer process.
[0035] All electrical components mentioned in the text are electrically connected to the main controller and power supply. The main controller can be a conventional and known device such as a computer, and the existing publicly available power connection technology will not be elaborated in the text.
