[0021] In the description of the utility model, need explanation is, the orientation or position relation that the term "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "internal", "external" etc. indicate is based on the orientation or position relation shown in the drawing, and the above description is simplified for the convenience of describing the utility model, and is not indicate or imply that the device or element indicated must have the specific orientation, with specific orientation configuration and operation, therefore can not be understood as the limitation of the utility model.
[0022] In the specification, when one element is located on another element, "fixed" to another element, "connected" to another element, "joined" to another element, etc., the element can be directly located on another element, fixed to another element, connected to another element, joined to another element or contact another element, or there can be intermediate elements.
[0023] It will be understood that, although the terms "first", "second", etc. can be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. Thus, a first element could be termed a second element without departing from the teachings of the present application.
[0024] Exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described herein below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood, however, that the application can be presented in many different forms and should not be limited to the embodiments described below. It is also to be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein can be combined in various ways, thereby providing more additional embodiments. In all the drawings, the same reference numerals designate the same or functionally similar elements.
[0025] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 An automatic clamping wafer magazine is shown, which comprises a plurality of clamping jaws 20 arranged on a feeding table 10, the clamping jaws 20 being connected to a synchronous plate 40 at the bottom of the feeding table 10 through the feeding table 10, and the synchronous plate 40 is driven to rotate to drive the plurality of clamping jaws 20 to move synchronously, thereby achieving clamping and fixing of wafer membranes of different sizes.
[0026] A first guide groove 11 corresponding to the clamping jaws 20 and pointing to the rotating axis of the synchronous plate 40 is formed on the upper surface of the feeding table 10, and the lower end of the clamping jaw 20 is embedded in the first guide groove 11 so that the clamping jaw 20 can only extend along the length direction of the first guide groove 11. Since the transverse width of the first guide groove 11 is similar to that of the clamping jaw 20, the clamping jaw 20 will not be twisted during movement. A third guide groove 12 is also formed in the first guide groove 11, and the third guide groove 12 passes through the feeding table 10 to make the upper and lower sides of the feeding table 10 communicate with each other. A second guide groove 41 is formed on the synchronous plate 40, and a pin shaft 30 passes through the second guide groove 41 and the third guide groove 12 in sequence and is inserted into the bottom of the clamping jaw 20, thereby forming a connecting rod structure with the synchronous plate 40 and the clamping jaw 20. A first mounting hole 13 is also formed on the feeding table 10, and the synchronous plate 40 is arranged to rotate around the first mounting hole 13 as the axis. The plurality of first guide grooves 11 and the third guide grooves 12 arranged in the first guide grooves 11 are straight guide grooves and are arranged around the first mounting hole 13, so that the clamping jaws 20 are synchronously close to / distant from the axis along the first direction 3 with the guide groove structure, and the axis is the center of the wafer membrane, thereby achieving clamping of the wafer membrane by synchronously changing the position of the clamping jaw 20 in the first guide groove 11. The pin shaft 30 has a first part 31 and a second part 32 with different outer diameters, so that it can only pass through the second guide groove 41 in a specified order, preventing misassembly.
[0027] Reference Figure 5When the magazine works, the synchronization plate 40 rotates along the second direction 4 under the drive of the electric mechanism, the second guide groove 41 is an arc-shaped groove, the extension direction of the second guide groove 41 is the product of the vector direction of the first direction 3 and the second direction 4. Thus, the rotary motion of the synchronization plate 40 is converted into linear motion through the arc-shaped groove and the pin shaft structure, while controlling the synchronous movement of the plurality of clamping jaws 20.
[0028] With reference to Figure 6 In an embodiment, a second mounting hole 42 connected with the driving mechanism is further provided on the synchronization plate 40, and the second mounting hole 42 is coaxial with the first mounting hole 13. A locking block 43 is further fixed in the second mounting hole 42, and the driving shaft of the driving mechanism is inserted into the second mounting hole 42 and fixed in the locking block 43 in interference, so as to assist the positioning of the driving shaft during installation.
