Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of anodic oxidation auxiliary cathode fixtures, and particularly relates to a special fixture for semiconductor chemical anodic oxidation auxiliary cathodes. Background Technology
[0002] During the anodizing process, due to the current characteristics and the external cathode lead plate, there is less charge movement and weak current inside the cavity, which prevents effective anodizing. Therefore, it is necessary to add a cathode to achieve auxiliary oxidation and increase the internal current intensity.
[0003] When the product is anodized, the cathode plate is placed on both sides of the chemical solution tank. The current inside the cavity is small and cannot achieve the quality of normal oxidation. If conventional oxidation is still used, the inside of the cavity cannot fully contact the cathode plates on both sides of the tank. As a result, the film formation and dissolution rate during electrolysis is not proportional to that outside the cavity, resulting in uneven film layer and inconsistent film thickness, especially for products with complex inner cavity surfaces. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a special fixture for auxiliary cathodes in semiconductor chemical anodizing, thus solving the aforementioned problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a special fixture for auxiliary cathode in semiconductor chemical anodizing, comprising:
[0006] The first cathode auxiliary fixture is suspended in the middle of the product to be plated in the electroplating bath;
[0007] The second cathode auxiliary fixture is suspended inside the product to be plated and connected to the first auxiliary cathode fixture. It is used to cooperate with the first cathode auxiliary fixture and the anode connected to the product to be plated to perform electroplating treatment on the inside of the product to be plated.
[0008] The product to be plated includes a first cylinder, a second cylinder, and a through groove. The second cylinder is fixedly connected to and communicates with the first cylinder. The through groove is located at the bottom of the first cylinder.
[0009] Based on the above technical solutions, this utility model also provides the following optional technical solutions:
[0010] A further technical solution: the through groove is a fan-shaped groove, the outer arc of the through groove fits the inner wall of the first cylinder, and the inner arc of the through groove fits the outer wall of the second cylinder.
[0011] Further technical solution: The second cylinder is in the shape of a triangular plate, and the three protrusions are connected by a circular arc wall.
[0012] Further technical solution: The first cathode auxiliary fixture includes a first cathode plate and a first through hole. Four first cathode plates are arranged to form a rectangular cylinder and are suspended in the middle of the second cylinder. Several first through holes are provided on the first cathode plate to facilitate the flow of electroplating liquid.
[0013] Further technical solution: The second cathode auxiliary fixture includes a second cathode plate, a third cathode plate, and a pin. The two second cathode plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rectangular cylinder, and the third cathode plate is arranged on the front of the rectangular cylinder. The second cathode plate and the third cathode plate are detachably connected to the rectangular cylinder through the pin. The third cathode plate and the two second cathode plates are correspondingly inserted into the fan-shaped cavity formed by the first cylinder and the second cylinder. The second cathode plate and the third cathode plate are electrically connected to the cathode.

[0016] A further technical solution: The second cathode plate and the third cathode plate are located at the same height and are arranged in a triangular shape.
[0017] A further technical solution: The pin, through a first through hole on the first cathode plate and second through holes on the second and third cathode plates, respectively, defines the second and third cathode plates on the corresponding first cathode plates.
[0018] This invention provides a special fixture for auxiliary cathodes in semiconductor chemical anodizing, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0019] 1. This invention enables the uniform electroplating of the complex internal surface of the product to be plated by placing the product in an electroplating tank containing an electroplating solution. At this time, skilled personnel use an external insulating hanger to suspend a first cathode auxiliary fixture connected to a second cathode auxiliary fixture inside the product. This causes a rectangular cylinder formed by four first cathode plates to be suspended in the middle of a second cylinder, and a third cathode plate and two second cathode plates to be suspended correspondingly within the three fan-shaped cavities formed by the first and second cylinders. The first cylinder is then connected to the anode, and the first, second, and third cathode plates are connected to the cathode. This achieves the technical effect of uniformly electroplating the internal surface of the product, which has a complex structure. Specifically, by adding cathodes inside the cavities of the product, the internal current is increased, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of anodizing. Attached Figure Description
