Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of micro-nano fabrication technology, specifically a tray for a spin coater used in micro-nano fabrication. Background Technology

[0002] In the micro-nano fabrication process, a spin coater is required when coating the surface of the workpiece. The working principle of the spin coater is to adsorb the workpiece on the tray, drop different adhesives onto the surface of the workpiece, and use centrifugal force to evenly coat the workpiece with the adhesives through high-speed rotation.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent Publication No. CN218691192U, "A Tray for a Spreading Machine for Micro-Nano Processing," this invention relates to the technical field of tray equipment for spreading machines. The tray includes a main body with a rotating shaft rotatably mounted on its inner bottom via bearings. A vacuum suction block is located at the upper end of the rotating shaft, and suction holes are formed on the surface of the vacuum suction block. A vacuum chamber is located at the bottom of the vacuum suction block, and the upper end of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vacuum chamber. An air passage is formed inside the rotating shaft, and the upper end of the air passage is connected to the vacuum chamber. This device fixes the processed parts through multi-point suction by forming multiple sets of suction holes on the vacuum suction block, which are connected to the vacuum chamber. This ensures the fixation of the processed parts while avoiding damage caused by single-point force on the parts. Furthermore, the multiple suction holes distribute the suction force of the vacuum chamber, preventing the problem of excessive suction force at a single point from drawing in glue and causing blockage.

[0004] The device has multiple air holes on the tray to achieve multi-point adsorption, but all the air holes are open, so the number of open air holes cannot be adjusted according to the shape and size of different workpieces, resulting in poor applicability. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide a tray for a spin coater used in micro-nano processing. The multiple fixed air holes on the surface of the tray can be individually set to open or closed states, enabling multi-point adsorption and allowing the number of open fixed air holes to be adjusted according to the shape and size of different workpieces, thereby improving the applicability of the device.

[0010] Preferably, a number of small air holes are provided at the center of the upper surface of the disc.

[0011] Preferably, an arc-shaped vent is provided on the outer side of the small vent.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are:

[0013] Multiple fixed air holes adsorb the workpiece. The fixed air holes are sealed by covering them with a cover plate. By rotating the cover plate, the movable air holes on the cover plate are aligned with the fixed air holes, and the fixed air holes are opened. The multiple fixed air holes on the surface of the disc can be individually set to open or closed, which can not only realize multi-point adsorption, but also adjust the number of open fixed air holes according to the shape and size of different workpieces, thus improving the applicability of the device.

The connecting post 7 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the circular groove 5. A fixing air hole 8 is arranged at the bottom of the circular groove 5 on the side of the connecting post 7. The fixing air hole 8 communicates with the vacuum chamber 3. A movable air hole 9 is arranged on the cover plate 6 corresponding to the fixing air hole 8.

[0022] The rotating shaft 2, driven by the motor inside the spin coater, rotates the disc 1. The vacuum chamber 3 and the vacuum equipment are connected through the air passage 4, creating a vacuum in the vacuum chamber 3. The vacuum chamber 3 and the surface of the disc 1 are connected by fixed air holes 8. Multiple fixed air holes 8 adsorb the workpiece. The fixed air holes 8 are covered by a cover plate 6, which closes the fixed air holes 8. By rotating the cover plate 6, the cover plate 6 rotates in the circular groove 5 through the connecting column 7. The movable air holes 9 on the cover plate 6 are rotated until they are aligned with the fixed air holes 8, thus opening the fixed air holes 8. The multiple fixed air holes 9 on the surface of the disc 1 can be individually set to open or closed, which can achieve multi-point adsorption and adjust the number of open fixed air holes 8 according to the shape and size of different workpieces, thus improving the applicability of the device.

The plurality of movable air holes 9 are of different sizes, and a cover plate is provided between the plurality of movable air holes 9 to completely cover the fixed air holes 8.

[0024] By covering the fixed air hole 8 with the cover plate between the movable air holes 9, the fixed air hole 8 is sealed. By rotating the cover plate 6, the movable air holes 9 of different sizes can be rotated to align with the fixed air hole 8, thereby changing the adsorption force of a single air hole.

[0025] Specifically, in combination Figure 3 As shown, the cover plate 6 is provided with a cross groove 10.

[0026] The cross groove 10 facilitates the rotation of the cover plate 6.
