[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0034] This application discloses a wafer coating apparatus for uniformly applying adhesive. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 3The system includes a worktable 1, on which a placement seat 2 is mounted. A circular groove 21 is formed on the top of the placement seat 2. A suction cup 22 is installed inside the circular groove 21. An air pipe 24 is connected to the bottom of the suction cup 22, passing through the placement seat 2. An air valve 25 is installed on the air pipe 24. When fixing the wafer in the circular groove 21, the air valve 25 is first opened to remove the gas between the suction cup 22 and the wafer through the air pipe 24. Then, the air valve 25 is closed to fix the wafer. A frame 11 is mounted above the worktable 1. A switching assembly 3 is installed between the worktable 1 and the frame 11 to allow relative rotation between the worktable 1 and the frame 11. A spray gun 5 is mounted at one end of the frame 11, and a scraper seat 61 is mounted at the other end. A lifting arm 62 is slidably mounted on the scraper seat 61, and a scraper 6 is mounted at the bottom of the lifting arm 62. When applying adhesive to the wafer, the switching motor 41 rotates the frame 11, first moving the spray gun 5 closer to the placement seat 2. Then, the horizontal movement motor 73 and the vertical movement motor 83 work together to move the wafer directly below the spray gun 5, after which the spray gun 5 sprays adhesive onto the wafer. After the spray gun 5 has finished spraying adhesive onto the wafer, the switching motor 41 is rotated again, moving the scraper seat 61 closer to the placement seat 2. Then, the lifting arm 62 descends, moving the scraper 6 to a suitable height. Finally, the horizontal movement motor 73, the vertical movement motor 83, and the rotary motor 91 work together to move the scraper 6 relative to the wafer, scraping the adhesive onto the wafer surface. This ensures the adhesive is evenly distributed on the wafer surface, improving the quality of semiconductor wafer adhesive application.
[0035] In order to make the wafer move relative to the scraper 6, refer to Figures 1 to 3A transverse groove 7 is formed on the top of the workbench 1. A transverse block 71 slides within the transverse groove 7, and a longitudinal seat 84 is mounted on the transverse block 71. A transverse screw 72 is rotatably mounted within the transverse groove 7 and is threadedly connected to the transverse block 71. A transverse motor 73 is mounted within the transverse groove 7 and is welded to one end of the transverse screw 72. A longitudinal groove 8 is formed on the top of the longitudinal seat 84. A longitudinal block 81 slides within the longitudinal groove 8. A longitudinal screw 82 is rotatably mounted within the longitudinal groove 8 and is threadedly connected to the longitudinal block 81. A longitudinal motor 83 is mounted within the longitudinal groove 8 and is welded to one end of the longitudinal screw 82. A rotation groove 9 is formed on the top of the longitudinal block 81. A rotary motor 91 is mounted within the rotation groove 9, and the output shaft of the rotary motor 91 is welded to the bottom of the placement seat 2. The transverse motor 73 starts, driving the transverse screw 72 to rotate. The rotation of the transverse screw 72 causes the transverse block 71 to move along the transverse groove 7. The movement of the transverse block 71 causes the placement seat 2 to move, thereby achieving the effect of moving the wafer along the length direction of the worktable 1. The longitudinal motor 83 starts, driving the longitudinal screw 82 to rotate. The rotation of the longitudinal screw 82 causes the longitudinal block 81 to move along the longitudinal groove 8. The movement of the longitudinal block 81 causes the placement seat 2 to move, thereby achieving the effect of moving the wafer along the width direction of the worktable 1. The rotary motor 91 starts, driving the placement seat 2 to rotate. The rotation of the placement seat 2 causes the wafer to rotate, thereby causing the wafer to rotate relative to the scraper 6.
[0036] In order to make the frame 11 rotate relative to the worktable 1, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4A switching groove 4 is formed on the top of the worktable 1, and a switching motor 41 is installed in the switching groove 4. A switching screw 43 is installed on the output shaft of the switching motor 41, and the switching screw 43 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the switching groove 4. A switching slide rod 44 is installed in the switching groove 4, and the switching slide rod 44 is parallel to the switching screw 43. A switching block 42 is installed on both the switching slide rod 44 and the switching screw 43, and the switching block 42 is threadedly connected to the switching screw 43. The switching slide rod 44 passes through the switching block 42. The switching assembly 3 includes a switching seat 31, a switching column 32, a switching gear 33, and a switching rack 34. The switching rack 34 is installed on the switching block 42, and the switching gear 33 is rotatably disposed in the switching groove 4, and the switching gear 33 and the switching rack 34 mesh with each other. The top of the switching gear 33 is welded to the bottom of the switching seat 31, the switching seat 31 covers the switching groove 4, and the switching seat 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the worktable 1. The top of the switching seat 31 is welded to the bottom of the switching column 32, and the top of the switching column 32 is welded to the center of the frame 11. The switching motor 41 starts, driving the switching screw 43 to rotate. The rotation of the switching screw 43 causes the switching block 42 to move along the switching slide bar 44, which in turn causes the switching rack 34 to move. The movement of the switching rack 34 causes the switching gear 33 to rotate, which in turn causes the switching seat 31 to rotate. The rotation of the switching seat 31 causes the switching column 32 to rotate, which in turn causes the frame 11 to rotate, thus achieving the effect of relative rotation between the frame 11 and the worktable 1.
[0037] To adjust the height of scraper 6, refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 5 A lifting groove 611 is provided on the scraper seat 61. A lifting block 612 is slidably disposed within the lifting groove 611 and is welded to the lifting arm 62. A lifting screw 613 is rotatably disposed within the lifting groove 611 and is threadedly connected to the lifting block 612. A lifting motor 614 is installed within the lifting groove 611, and the output shaft of the lifting motor 614 is welded to the lifting screw 613. The rotation of the lifting motor 614 drives the lifting screw 613 to rotate, which in turn drives the lifting block 612 to move along the lifting groove 611. The movement of the lifting block 612 drives the lifting arm 62 to move, thereby moving the lifting arm 62 along the height direction of the scraper seat 61.
[0038] The implementation principle of a wafer coating device for uniform adhesive application according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: When coating a wafer, the switching motor 41 is controlled to rotate the frame 11, first moving the spray gun 5 closer to the placement seat 2. Then, the horizontal movement motor 73 and the vertical movement motor 83 work together to move the wafer directly below the spray gun 5, after which the spray gun 5 sprays adhesive onto the wafer. After the spray gun 5 has finished spraying adhesive onto the wafer, the switching motor 41 is controlled again to rotate the frame 11, moving the scraper seat 61 closer to the placement seat 2. Then, the lifting arm 62 descends, driving the scraper 6 to move to a suitable height. Finally, the horizontal movement motor 73, the vertical movement motor 83, and the rotary motor 91 work together to move the scraper 6 relative to the wafer, and the scraper 6 scrapes the adhesive on the wafer surface. This ensures that the adhesive is evenly distributed on the wafer surface, improving the coating quality of semiconductor wafers.
[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
