Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of etching equipment. Specifically, this utility model relates to a water mist removal device for the cover plate of an etching device. Background Technology

[0002] In the etching process, water mist condenses on the cover plate of the inlet (before entering the etching tank), the NT unit after exiting the etching tank, and the rinsing section. This water drips onto the cover plate of the etching equipment. When the substrate passes through, the water droplets fall onto the substrate, easily causing etching mura and affecting product quality. Simultaneously, if the water droplets remain on the cover plate for an extended period without cleaning, bacteria can easily grow, further impacting product quality. Existing technologies use manual scrapers to remove only a small portion of the water mist for observing the etching chamber.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, patent application number 2021216133352 discloses a water mist cleaning device for the cleaning section of an RTP production line. This device includes a pipe with a water removal box and a shut-off valve installed sequentially from top to bottom. The water removal box comprises a box body, a box cover, and a sponge block installed inside the box body. The box body has an opening at the front, and the box cover is installed on the opening. The pipe connects to the top and bottom of the box body. A conical support mesh is also installed inside the box body at the pipe location at the bottom of the box body. The bottom of the sponge block has a groove that mates with the support mesh, and the periphery of the sponge block contacts the inner wall of the box body. However, this device fails to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0004] Therefore, in order to improve or solve at least one of the above problems, a water mist removal device for etching equipment cover plate is provided, which is conducive to removing water mist from the cover plate, preventing water mist from condensing into water droplets on the cover plate, reducing the probability of defects in the substrate during the etching process, and improving the quality of etched products.

The purge pipe 10 is square in shape to match the cover plate 1, thereby improving the purge effect on the surface of the cover plate 1, improving the removal effect of water mist on the cover plate 1, and improving reliability.

[0020] The dry air supply unit 20 includes an air compressor 21, a cooler 22, a compressed air purification component 23, an air tank 24, and a compressed air supply pipe 25. The air compressor 21 is connected to one end of the compressed air supply pipe 25. The air compressor 21 can compress atmospheric air to the required working pressure. In this embodiment, the pressure range is 0.6MPa~1.0MPa. The cooler 22 is installed on the compressed air supply pipe 25. The cooler 22 is used to cool the compressed air. The temperature of the compressed air needs to be cooled to near the ambient temperature, usually ≤40℃, to facilitate subsequent removal of water from the compressed air. In preparation, the cooler 22 is also connected to a condensate pre-separator to collect liquid water during the compressed air cooling process. The compressed air purification component 23 is installed on the compressed air supply pipe 25, located on the side of the cooler 22 away from the air compressor 21.
