[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a mask support device suitable for high-precision photolithography, comprising a base 1 and a support seat 2.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-3 As shown, a support base 2 is provided above the base 1. A limiting structure 3 is evenly provided at the top of the support base 2. The limiting structure 3 includes a sliding groove 301 evenly provided at the top of the support base 2. A clamping block 302 is provided inside the sliding groove 301. A clamping electric push rod 303 is installed on one side of each clamping block 302. Limiting blocks 304 are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the clamping block 302. A rubber pad 305 is provided on one side of the top of each clamping block 302. The sliding grooves 301 are evenly distributed at the top of the support base 2. The limiting blocks 304 are symmetrically distributed at the bottom of the clamping blocks 302. The limiting blocks 304 are all provided inside the sliding grooves 301. The clamping blocks 302 and the sliding grooves 301 are slidably connected through the limiting blocks 304. The side of the clamping electric push rod 303 away from the clamping block 302 is fixedly connected to one side inside the sliding groove 301.

[0027] The use of photomasks is essential in the production process of photolithography machines. To prevent positional displacement during use, a limiting structure 3 is installed. During use, the photomask is placed on top of the support base 2, and multiple sets of clamping electric push rods 303 are activated, which push the clamping blocks 302 to slide inside the slide groove 301. The clamping blocks 302 are placed inside the slide groove 301 by limiting blocks 304 on both sides, which makes it less likely to tilt during sliding. Thus, multiple sets of clamping blocks 302 clamp and limit the photomask. Rubber pads 305 are provided on one side of each clamping block 302 to provide a buffering effect during clamping, thereby preventing damage to the photomask and greatly increasing the practicality of the device.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, an adjustment structure 4 is evenly installed on the top of the base 1.

A movable groove 406 is opened on the top of the movable seat 405. A movable electric push rod 407 is installed on one side of the top of the movable groove 406. The lifting electric push rods 401 are symmetrically distributed on the top of the base 1. The lead screw 404 is threadedly connected to the movable seat 405. The bottom of the support seat 2 is set inside the movable groove 406. The support seat 2 and the movable seat 405 are slidably connected through the movable groove 406. One side of each movable electric push rod 407 is connected to one side of the support seat 2.

[0029] In order to meet the actual needs of the use of the device, the position of the mask plate needs to be adjusted.
