[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0029] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0030] The conventional heating disc and suction disc are of split structure, and the heating disc is made of aluminum, the overall structure is complex, and the irregular shape of the heating disc is easily deformed during heating.
[0031] Therefore, asFigures 1-5 As shown in the figure, a slide heating mechanism for a probe station comprises a base plate 1, and at least one clamping plate 11 is arranged around the base plate 1. In the embodiment, a circular hole is arranged on the clamping plate 11 for fixing connection. The clamping plate 11 can facilitate the taking and fixing of the base plate 1. Meanwhile, the base plate 1 is made of steel, which can enhance the stability of the structure.
[0032] Further, a suction disc 2 and a heating disc 3 are sequentially arranged above the base plate 1 from top to bottom. The heating disc 3 is made of ceramic material, which has good rigidity and is not easy to deform after being heated.
[0033] Further, a plurality of annular grooves 31 are arranged on the lower surface of the heating disc 3, which corresponds to the upper surface of the base plate 1. The number of the annular grooves 31 is at least 2, such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc. In an embodiment, the number of the annular grooves 31 is 8. Specifically, the annular grooves 31 are uniformly distributed in a ring shape on the lower surface of the heating disc 3, and the plurality of annular grooves 31 are located at the same center. Meanwhile, a plurality of connecting grooves 32 are arranged on the lower surface of the heating disc 3. The direction of the connecting grooves 32 is opposite to that of the annular grooves 31, and each connecting groove 32 is used to connect two adjacent annular grooves 31.
[0034] Further, a resistance wire (not shown) is arranged on the lower surface of the heating disc 3, and the resistance wire is coiled in the annular grooves 31 and the connecting grooves 32. At least one wire groove 36 is arranged at the edge of the lower surface of the heating disc 3, which is used to lead out the resistance wire. Specifically, the resistance wire coiled in the annular grooves 31 and the connecting grooves 32 does not need to be insulated by rubber, and the connecting grooves 32 can arrange the resistance wire neatly during the coiling process. Since the direction of the connecting grooves 32 is opposite to that of the annular grooves 31, the resistance wire is not easy to slide off after winding through the connecting grooves 32, which can prevent the distribution position from deviating and make the heating disc 3 heat evenly. The wire groove 36 can lead out both ends of the resistance wire to connect with external equipment. Of course, according to the actual situation, grooves for coiling the resistance wire can be arranged, including but not limited to the annular grooves 31 and the connecting grooves 32 in the embodiment.
[0035] Further, the heating disc 3 is provided with a plurality of first staggered threaded holes 33 and second staggered threaded holes 34. Specifically, the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34 are arranged away from the annular groove 31, and the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34 in the same radius are arranged alternately. Among them, at least one first staggered threaded hole 33 is arranged between the second staggered threaded holes 34 in the same radius. In the specific embodiment, the structures of the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34 are consistent, but in other embodiments, only the first staggered threaded holes 33 or the second staggered threaded holes 34 can be arranged in the same radius, as long as the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34 are arranged staggered.
[0036] In the specific embodiment, there are A-Z holes, among which A / C / E / G / I / K / M / O / S / V / Y are second staggered threaded holes 34, and B / D / F / H / J / L / N / P / Q / R / T / U / W / X / Z are first staggered threaded holes 33. Of course, the number of holes is not limited to the above.
[0037] Further, the heating disc 3 is locked to the lower surface of the suction disc 2 by metal screws passing through the first staggered threaded holes 33. In the specific embodiment, the screws are not limited to metal materials, but can also be resin screws. Since the electrical performance needs to be met, resin screws are also an option. However, due to the expansion of various parts during heating, the resin screws may fail due to insufficient strength, so the structure preferably uses metal screws for locking.
[0038] Further, a plurality of pads 35 are arranged between the heating disc 3 and the bottom plate 1, and the pads 35 are made of ceramic material. In the specific embodiment, the pads 35 are cylindrical, but are not limited to cylindrical and can be any other shape. The pads 35 correspond one-to-one to the second staggered threaded holes 34, and the heating disc 3 is locked to the upper surface of the bottom plate 1 by metal screws passing through the pads 35 and the second staggered threaded holes 34. By arranging the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34, the heating disc 3 is fixedly connected to the suction disc 2 and the bottom plate 1, thereby eliminating the multi-layer structure and simplifying the structure. At the same time, due to the staggered arrangement of the first staggered threaded holes 33 and the second staggered threaded holes 34, the current can be blocked downward by staggering, thereby preventing the resistance wire from being damaged by excessive current and improving the leakage performance by using the insulation performance of ceramic. The pads 35 are arranged between the heating disc 3 and the bottom plate 1, so that they do not directly contact each other in a large area. Since air itself is a good heat insulation material, the heat transferred from the heating disc 3 to the bottom plate 1 can be further reduced.
[0039] The working principle of the utility model discloses: resistance wire is heated by electricity, because the heating disc 3 is ceramic material, rigidity is good, the sucking disc 2 is more difficult to produce thermal deformation, and ceramic pad 35 is arranged between the heating disc 3 and the bottom plate 1, the heat of the heating disc 3 is reduced to the bottom plate 1, and because the connecting form of the ceramic heating disc 3, the first staggered threaded hole 33 and the second staggered threaded hole 34 are staggered, wherein, the heating disc 3 is locked to the lower surface of the sucking disc 2 through the first staggered threaded hole 33, and the heating disc 3 is locked to the upper surface of the bottom plate 1 through the second staggered threaded hole 34, so that all the screws are locked through the staggered mode, and the ceramic insulation performance is used for insulation, the current is blocked to be transmitted downward, and the resistance wire is prevented from being damaged by the current caused by excessive voltage.
