Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semiconductor technology, specifically to a silicon wafer variable pitch tooth device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology, the requirements for the production quality of silicon wafers are becoming more and more stringent. In the production process of silicon wafers, a set of top teeth composed of multiple top teeth is used to push the silicon wafer out of the groove of the quartz boat or the groove of the basket, so that it can be transported to the next production unit for processing. When it is necessary to push the silicon wafer out, the edge of the top teeth is prone to bumping and damaging the silicon wafer.
[0003] Chinese patent CN214848570U discloses a silicon wafer ejector device. This prior art sets the end teeth in the shape of plates and provides a clearance part on the side of the end teeth away from the top teeth. When performing a partial ejection operation on silicon wafers in a quartz boat or basket, the end teeth are less likely to accidentally hit the silicon wafers that need to be retained next to the end teeth, thus ensuring higher product quality and higher work efficiency.
[0004] The aforementioned equipment consists of a single top tooth mechanism. Flower baskets typically have 100 or 120 slots, while quartz boats, although also having 100 or 120 slots, have different slot spacing. The slot spacing of the quartz boat is half that of the flower basket. Therefore, in the existing technology, the silicon wafers can only be lifted by half a flower basket when being placed and removed from the flower basket and quartz boat, resulting in low space utilization and making it difficult to increase production capacity. Optimization and improvement are needed. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0025] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this application provides a silicon wafer variable pitch toothed device, including: a connecting frame 1, a support plate 2 installed on one side of the top end of the connecting frame 1, and a cylinder 3 installed on the other side of the top end of the connecting frame 1.
[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the movable plate 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the cylinder 3. The movable plate 4 and the support plate 2 have the same top structure. The movable plate 4 is the moving end, and the support plate 2 is the fixed end. They can be used separately or together.
[0027] The variable spacing limit component is located at the top of the cylinder 3, and the variable spacing limit component includes a movable plate 4, a protective pad 7 is provided on the inner side of the movable plate 4, and a toothed column 6 is provided at the top of the movable plate 4. A limit post 9 is provided on the inner side of the protective pad 7. The variable spacing limit component is used for position adjustment of two adjacent sets of toothed columns 6.
[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 2As shown, a fixed connecting plate 8 is connected to the inner side of the support plate 2, and limit posts 9 are connected to both the upper and lower ends of the inner side of the fixed connecting plate 8. A guide cylinder 10 is provided in the middle of the inner side of the fixed connecting plate 8, and an elastic buffer rod 11 is connected to the inner side of the guide cylinder 10. The fixed connecting plate 8 and the guide cylinder 10 are fixedly connected, and the guide cylinder 10 and the elastic buffer rod 11 are elastically connected, so that when the cylinder 3 drives the movable plate 4 to move, the middle contact part is buffered and protected by the limit posts 9 and the elastic buffer rod 11.
[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the top of the support plate 2 is connected to the connecting fixing plate 5, and both sides of the connecting fixing plate 5 are provided with snap-fit grooves 13. The front end of the connecting fixing plate 5 is equipped with a positioning connecting plate 12, and the inner side of the snap-fit groove 13 is provided with a docking baffle 14. The two adjacent connecting fixing plates 5 are close to each other, and the docking baffles 14 at the edges fit together and are positioned in the middle of the two toothed columns 6. At this time, the toothed columns 6 at the top of the support plate 2 and the movable plate 4 are combined, and two sets of top teeth can be pulled to increase production capacity.
[0030] The adjustment and installation assembly is located at the top of the support plate 2, and includes a sliding adjustment groove 15. A U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 is provided on the inner side of the sliding adjustment groove 15. The adjustment and installation assembly is used for the adjustable installation of the toothed column 6.
[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the sliding adjustment groove 15 is located at the inner top of the support plate 2. The U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 is internally connected to the positioning screw 17. The sliding adjustment groove 15 and the U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 are slidably connected, and the U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 and the positioning screw 17 are threadedly connected. The U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 slides inside the sliding adjustment groove 15, which facilitates the adjustment of the installation position of the connecting fixing plate 5 and the support plate 2. Then, it is fixed by the positioning screw 17, which improves the adjustment and installation efficiency of the connecting fixing plate 5.
[0032] In this embodiment: a fixed support plate 2 is set, and a sliding and adjustable movable plate 4 is set. The contact part of the toothed column 6 at the top can be used to fit together, which multiplies the original support position and improves the utilization rate of the ejection processing space. During the positioning and installation process between the fixed plate 5 and the support plate 2, the sliding and adjustable U-shaped snap-fit sliding frame 16 is set to slide and adjust on the inner side of the support plate 2. The installation position of the fixed plate 5 can be adjusted within a certain range according to actual needs.
[0033] Specifically, this solution involves using a toothed mechanism to eject silicon wafers from the slots of a quartz boat or a basket. During this process, a cylinder 3 can push a movable plate 4 towards a support plate 2. Upon approach, a protective pad 7 first contacts an elastic buffer rod 11 for cushioning and compression, and then contacts a limiting post 9 for positioning and support. This ensures that the contact between the support plate 2 and the movable plate 4 has a buffering and protective effect. After contact, the connecting fixing plate 5 at the top also connects to the toothed post 6, and the mating baffles 14 on both sides combine to fill the space occupied by a single toothed post 6. This design increases the ejection space range of the toothed mechanism, improving space utilization and transfer efficiency.
