Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrostatic chuck processing technology, and in particular to a dustproof protective cover for electrostatic chuck processing. Background Technology

[0002] An electrostatic chuck is a precision device that uses electrostatic adsorption to fix workpieces. Its core structure includes an electrode plate, an insulating layer, and an adsorption platform. In the field of precision manufacturing, electrostatic chucks are widely used in the processing of high-precision semiconductor and LCD panel products due to their stable adsorption performance. Since even tiny dust particles in the processing environment can cause serious quality problems such as scratches on the workpiece surface and short circuits, it is crucial to protect the processing area of ​​the electrostatic chuck from dust. As a result, dustproof electrostatic chuck processing protective covers have emerged.

[0003] However, traditional electrostatic chuck processing protective covers involve cumbersome disassembly steps that lead to excessive time consumption when replacing or repairing the protective cover. Furthermore, ordinary protective covers deteriorate internal air quality due to prolonged use, affecting protective efficiency. Moreover, the compatibility between the protective cover and the electrostatic chuck is poor; different sizes and shapes of electrostatic chuck require customized protective covers, resulting in low versatility. While current market products connect side protective plates to the base frame via sliding rails, allowing for free sliding and adjustment based on the width or diameter of the electrostatic chuck, covering sizes from small to large, the disassembly process is still too cumbersome, delaying maintenance and reducing protection time. Additionally, excessive accumulation of impurities in the internal air after prolonged use further reduces protective efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a dustproof electrostatic chuck processing protective cover, which aims to improve the problem that the disassembly steps of the protective cover in the prior art are too cumbersome and that too much impurity accumulates in the internal air after long-term operation.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The fixing component includes a screw rod, the outer wall of which is threaded to the bottom of the inner wall of the base, and a support column is fixedly connected to the top of each of the screw rods.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] Each of the support columns has a rubber ball fixedly connected to its top, and the bottom of the base is threadedly connected to a screw rod.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. In this utility model, when the cover needs to be repaired and inspected, simply pull it out from the base to separate the rubber sleeve and the rubber ball. At the same time, the ball and the round hole on the outer wall of the connecting frame separate. Then the rubber ball returns to its original position with the help of the spring force, and can be removed. When putting it back, use the pushing force to insert it into the sliding groove opened in the base to squeeze the ball. Then the rubber sleeve and the rubber ball are fastened together. At this time, the ball is tightly attached to the round hole, fixing the cover, thus achieving a quicker disassembly.

[0022] 2. In this utility model, when ventilation is required, the motor inside the protective shell is started, and the motor drives the impeller to rotate, so that the air inside the shell is drawn out along the ventilation port, and then discharged after being filtered by the filter plate on the protective frame. Meanwhile, the outside air is first filtered by the filter plate and then drawn into the interior of the shell, thus completing the exchange of air inside the shell. Attached Figure Description

[0036] Specifically, the fixing component includes multiple screws 11, whose outer walls are tightly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the base 5 by threads, and the top is connected to a support column 12.

The bottom of the base 5 is threaded with multiple screws 14 and nuts 15 to adjust the height. The top of the cover 1 has an inner groove 16.

[0037] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 The inner wall of the inner groove 16 is fitted with an anti-electric plate 17 by means of sliding connection. The top left and right sides of the anti-electric plate 17 are firmly fixed with fixing blocks 20 to ensure its stability and functionality. The top left and right sides of the cover 1 are fitted with rotating shafts 18 by means of rotatable connection. The outer walls of the two rotating shafts 18 are firmly fixed with fixing plates 19 to enhance their structural support. The top of the two fixing plates 19 are provided with slots 21 for snapping, so as to connect and fix with the fixing blocks 20. The bottom of the outer walls of the cover 1 and the connecting frame 3 are provided with dustproof grooves 22.

[0038] Specifically, the inner wall of the inner groove 16 is connected to the anti-electric plate 17, and the top left and right sides are fixedly connected to the fixing blocks 20 for stability. The top left and right sides of the cover 1 are connected to the rotating shaft 18. The outer wall is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 19 to enhance support. The top of the fixing plate 19 has a slot 21 to connect with the fixing block 20. The bottom of the outer wall of the cover 1 and the connecting frame 3 has a dustproof groove 22.

[0039] Working principle: First, after fixing the base 5 to the external equipment, the cover 1 is inserted into the groove 6 opened in the base 5. Then, the connecting frame 3 connected to the bottom of the cover 1 uses the pushing force to squeeze the ball 8 in the groove 6, causing the spring 9 in the rubber column 7 to be squeezed and deformed. Then, when the rubber sleeve 10 at the bottom of the connecting frame 3 is pushed downward, it squeezes the rubber ball 13 on the groove 6. Due to the special material of the rubber ball 13, it deforms when squeezed and is then stuck by the rubber sleeve 10, forming a fixation. Then, because there is a spring 9 at the bottom of the groove 6, after the connecting frame 3 reaches the bottom, the rubber ball 13 is tightly attached to the round hole 4 on the outer wall of the connecting frame 3 with the elasticity of the spring 9, forming a fixation. When it is necessary to repair and inspect the cover 1, simply pull the cover 1 out of the base 5 and use the pulling force to make it separate naturally. When there is no force to squeeze, the rubber ball 13 is reset by the spring 9, making replacement faster and avoiding traditional disassembly steps, thus improving efficiency.

[0040] First, during long-term protection, the air in the dustproof groove 22 inside the cover 1 will contain too many impurities. At this time, the motor 203 inside the protective shell 201 is started. The rotation of the motor 203 drives the impeller 204 to rotate, thereby generating wind. This causes the air inside the cover 1 to be drawn out through the vent 207. In fact, the air gathers in the protective frame 205 and then floats out along the filter plate 206 on the protective frame 205. When passing through the filter plate 206, the impurities in the air are filtered out due to the filtering properties of the filter plate 206. When the outside air enters the protective frame 205, it is also filtered by the filter plate 206, so that the air entering the cover 1 is clean and avoids the air quality inside the cover 1 being too low, which would affect the dustproof work.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
