[0042] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 According to the first embodiment of the carrying device of the present application, the carrying device comprises a driving module 100, a cleaning module 300 and a sensor 400. The driving module 100 comprises a driving assembly 110 and a mounting frame 120, the mounting frame 120 is used to pick up or put down the hanging basket 200, and the driving assembly 110 is used to drive the mounting frame 120 to move. The sensor 400 is installed on the mounting frame 120, and the sensor 400 is used to detect whether the mounting frame 120 picks up the hanging basket 200. The cleaning module 300 comprises a spray head 310, and the spray head 310 is used to spray cleaning liquid to the sensor 400.

[0043] According to the carrying device of the present application, at least the following beneficial effects are obtained: by spraying cleaning liquid to the sensor 400 through the spray head 310, it is beneficial to timely and automatically complete the cleaning of the sensor 400, without relying on manual cleaning, and the cleaning effect of the sensor 400 is better.

[0044] Specifically, the driving assembly 110 can be a multi-axis mechanical arm or a motion platform, such as a three-axis, four-axis or five-axis mechanical arm, or a three-axis, four-axis or five-axis motion platform.

[0045] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of the present application, the cleaning module 300 further comprises a conduit 320 for introducing the cleaning liquid into the spray head 310.

[0046] By arranging the conduit 320, the cleaning liquid can be conveniently introduced into the spray head 310, the flow path of the cleaning liquid can be arranged as needed, and the use of the spray head 310 is more convenient.

[0047] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the sensor 400 is provided with two or more, the number of spray heads 310 is the same as the number of sensors 400, and the spray head 310 is used to spray cleaning liquid to the sensor 400 one by one.

[0048] By arranging multiple sensors 400, the installation rack 120 can obtain multiple feedback results whether the hanging basket 200 is picked up, so that the judgment of whether the installation rack 120 picks up the hanging basket 200 is more accurate. By arranging the spray head 310, the sensor 400 is sprayed with cleaning liquid one by one, which can effectively clean each spray head 310, and the cleaning effect is better.

[0049] In the improved scheme of the above embodiments, the sensor 400 is provided with two, four, six or eight.

[0050] When the number of sensors 400 is two, four, six or eight, the number of sensors 400 is at a medium level, which can balance the cost and the accuracy of detection, and the handling device has the characteristics of relatively accurate detection and relatively low cost.

[0051] In another embodiment, the number of sensors 400 can also be three, five, seven or other numbers.

[0052] With reference to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present application, the installation rack 120 comprises a cross beam 121 and a mounting member 122. The driving assembly 110 is used to drive the cross beam 121 to move. The mounting member 122 is mounted on the cross beam 121, and the mounting member 122 is provided with two or more, the mounting members 122 are arranged at intervals, and the adjacent two mounting members 122 are arranged as a working group. At least one working group is used to mount or lower the hanging basket 200.

[0053] By mounting the hanging basket 200 by at least one working group, the hanging basket 200 can be neatly mounted on the installation rack 120, thereby effectively utilizing the space and reducing the volume of the installation rack 120 with the hanging basket 200.

[0054] Specifically, with reference to Figure 3The mounting member 122 comprises a mounting plate 123 and a hook 124 fixed to the mounting plate 123. Among the mounting members 122 arranged in the left-right direction, the two outermost mounting members 122 are provided with only one hook 124, and the remaining mounting members 122 are provided with hooks 124 on both sides. The hanging basket 200 comprises two end plates 210, and each end plate 210 is provided with a insertion hole 211. After the hooks 124 of the mounting members 122 located on both sides of the hanging basket 200 are inserted into the insertion holes 211, the hanging basket 200 can be hung on the mounting members 122.

[0055] It should be noted that the insertion hole 211 can be a semi-closed hole, so that after the driving assembly 110 drives the cross beam 121 to move, the hook 124 is inserted into the insertion hole 211.

[0056] Referring to Figure 1 In the improved scheme of the above embodiment, the mounting member 122 is provided with two, four, six or eight.

[0057] When the number of mounting members 122 is two, four, six or eight, the number of hanging baskets 200 and the strength of the mounting rack 120 can be considered, so that the efficiency and safety performance are balanced, and the performance of the carrying device is better.

[0059] By arranging the mounting members 122 in a rectangular array, the hanging baskets 200 can be arranged in a rectangular array on the mounting rack 120, the space utilization of the mounting rack 120 is more compact and effective, and the mounting rack 120 can mount more hanging baskets 200.

[0060] Referring to Figure 1 In the improved scheme of the above embodiment, the number of sensors 400 is the same as the number of mounting members 122, and the sensors 400 are installed one by one on the mounting members 122. The sensor 400 is used to detect whether the corresponding mounting member 122 is mounted with the hanging basket 200.

[0061] By detecting whether the mounting member 122 is mounted with the hanging basket 200 through the sensor 400 one by one, it can be detected whether both ends of the hanging basket 200 are normally lifted, so that the sensor 400 can prompt whether the working condition is normal, and the safety performance of the carrying device is better.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, the sensor 400 comprises one of a proximity sensor, a photoelectric sensor, a travel switch and an ultrasonic sensor.

[0063] The acquisition cost of the proximity sensor, the photoelectric sensor, the travel switch and the ultrasonic sensor is low, thereby being beneficial to reducing the equipment cost of the conveying device.

[0064] With reference to Figure 4 According to the second aspect embodiment of the present application, the processing equipment comprises the conveying device and a container 500, and the container 500 is provided with a containing groove 510 for containing liquid.

[0065] According to the processing equipment of the present application, at least the following beneficial effects are achieved: through the use of the conveying device, the cleaning of the sensor 400 can be timely and effectively completed, thereby being beneficial to maintaining the normal production of the processing equipment.

[0066] Specifically, the processing equipment can be a cleaning device or a texturing device, wherein the cleaning device can be used for cleaning impurities on the surface of a silicon wafer to prevent the impurities from interfering with the texturing process of the silicon wafer.

[0067] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present application.
