And then under cover 300 states that are installed on the stacked processome 140, the last ora terminalis of cover 300 is than the high scheduled volume of upper surface of stacked processome 140.In addition, as shown in Figure 9, between the lateral circle surface of cover 300 interior week and upper support disk 210, be formed with the circulation gap 142 of preset width.This diameter that is based on the round plate 221 of lower support disk 220 forms greatly than the diameter of upper support disk 210, and covers 300 straight tube-like that form with the chimeric diameter of the round plate 221 of lower support disk 220.In addition, form in the retainer 200 of same diameter at the round plate 221 of upper support disk 210 and lower support disk 220, preference forms the taper that top broadens and forms circulation gap 142 as covering 300.
In addition, the tap 301 that is formed on cover 300 bottom and can discharges slurry is positioned under the installment state of cover 300 than the upper surface of the round plate 221 of lower support disk 220 more by the position of upside.
As mentioned above, cover 300 is provided with the tap 301 that can discharge slurry, on the other hand, cover 300 as lower support disk 220 sealings of the lower openings portion of lower end by retainer 200, form cover layer stack the Worker's Stadium 140 around (stacked processome 140 is contained in inside) and to the cylindrical vessel shape of the top opening of cover 300.
And, utilize bolted to the rotary table 130 of grinding mechanism 110 by mounting flange 222 with the lower support disk 220 of retainer 200, thereby such as mentioned above, the stacked processome 140 that cover 300 is installed is installed on the rotary table 130.Explanation before this disc wafer 10 is stacked and be supported in the retainer 200 and the structure that is installed on the rotary table 130 is one of function of holding unit.In addition, the installation procedure of cover 300 is not limited to this, also can become and will cover 300 operations that cover on the stacked processome 140 after being installed in stacked processome 140 on the rotary table 130.
Then, come the mobile of the slurry in grinding operation and the grinding operation described with reference to Fig. 9.
Grinding operation is following carrying out: supply with from slurry supply nozzle 123 ejection slurry and to the upper surface of stacked processome 140, make rotary table 130 rotations, simultaneously, while make abrasive brush 150 rotate its axially on (above-below direction) move back and forth with predetermined stroke.
The slurry of upper surface that is fed into stacked processome 140 shown in arrow among Fig. 9 like that, flow into the centre bore 141 of stacked processome 140 from the perforate 233C of the top pressing piece 233 opened to the top of retainer 200, and flow into the periphery of stacked processome 140 and cover between 300 by circulation gap 142.The residue slurry that does not have to flow into wherein spills into the outside from covering 300 upper limb, flows down through outer peripheral face.
The slurry that flows in the centre bore 141 of stacked processome 140 is carried downwards by the bristle material (with reference to the bristle material 154 of Figure 12 described later) and the rotation of this abrasive brush 150 and then the deadweight of slurry etc. that form spiral helicine abrasive brush 150, from perforate 223 outflows of lower support disk 220.In addition, flow into the periphery of stacked processome 140 and the slurry of covering between 300 flows down through the outer surface of stacked processome 140 by circulation gap 142, its part flows out from the tap 301 that covers 300 bottom.
Slurry is flowed, thereby also supply with slurry to centre bore 141 from this outer surface.Thus,, be not only the slurry that flows into from the perforate 211 of upper support disk 210, also supply with slurry from outer circumferential side for abrasive brush 150 formed grinding operation zones (inner peripheral surface of centre bore 141).
Promptly, because the caused pressure that relatively moves of abrasive brush 150 and stacked processome 140 changes, shown in the arrow X among Fig. 9, the slurry that is present in the outer circumferential side of stacked processome 140 is supplied with via the perforation supply hole 163 of slurry importing body 160 and to the grinding operation zone.
Thus, not only from the upper end of stacked processome 140, also supply with fresh slurry midway to the grinding operation zone of (for example per 50) bottom from stacked processome 140.Therefore, the inner peripheral surface (inner peripheral surface of disc wafer 10) to the centre bore 141 of stacked processome 140 can grind on above-below direction more equably.In addition, owing to supply with more slurry,, can shorten the grinding operation time so grinding operation efficient improves to the grinding operation zone.
Here, if having slurry in the outside that connects supply hole 163, then the slurry of supplying with to the grinding operation zone via the perforation supply hole 163 of this slurry importing body 160 is enough.Therefore, in the present embodiment, as long as slurry flows to the position that has two slurry importing bodies 160 through the outer peripheral face of stacked processome 140.That is it is whole and stacked processome 140 is immersed wherein fully, not need slurry to be full of this cover 300.
The diameter and the quantity of near the tap 301 that makes slurry flow into the interval in the periphery of stacked processome 140 and the circulation gap 142 of cover between 300 and form the lower edge of cover 300 are set at, and supply with slurry well by this effect.

Shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 A, Figure 13 B, part is reeling as the mode doubling of the arbor (core gold) 155 of the core of limit flexion (with an end side of the bundle of bristle material 154 and the mode bending of the other end side closure) in the central for the bristle material 154 that brush row 152 make predetermined length, and the sweep of this arbor 155 of will reeling is used as the brush matrix material from the outside base metal part 156 is riveted (caulking).That is, base metal part 156 is involved in arbor 155 and bristle material 154 and is integrated.Arbor 155 is formed by wire rods such as unoxidizable alloy steel.Thus, the bristle material 154 of brush row 152 is fixed on the arbor 155 integratedly, and forms the row shape with respect to axle core 151 as shown in Figure 12.Thus, hair end 154L, 154R are radial extension from arbor 155.
Base metal part 156 forms the roughly cross sectional shape of U font by SECC (plated steel sheet) etc.And, between its two front-end edges 156A and arbor 155, sandwich bristle material 154 (with front-end edge 156A with bristle material 154 by being pressed on the arbor 155) respectively, thereby bristle material 154 is fixed on the arbor 155.As shown in figure 12, this base metal part 156 mutual butt shape coiling in the shape of a spiral in the axial direction around axle core 151 is on one side brushed the interval of row 152 thus and is brushed gap 153 and forms constant.That is, the width of base metal part 156 is set at following size: the ratio interval that needed minimal width is big and row 152 are brushed in qualification in the function that bristle material 154 is fixed on the arbor 155.
Bristle material 154 forms diameter 0.1mm by for example nylon etc.Around arbor 155, front ( hair end 154L, 154R) erects with free state from the front-end edge 156A of base metal part 156 this bristle material 154 in the part that is covered by base metal part 156.
Here, utilize the clinching method of base metal part 156, make the hair of the both sides of bristle material 154 hold the attitude of 154L, 154R to change.Specifically, the attitude that erects angle etc. of hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 and the two open angle θs of front-end edge 156A on the Zhou Fangxiang of arbor 155 of base metal part 156 change accordingly.
In the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, shown in Figure 13 A, Figure 13 B, the open angle θ of base metal part 156 is set at, and hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 both sides become in mutual butt of front end and close attitude.Thus, hair end 154L, the 154R of the many bristle materials 154 of both sides are in all direction sets of arbor 155.That is, an end side of the bundle of bristle material 154 ( hair end 154L or 154R) and the other end side ( hair end 154R or 154L) closure, and become the state of concentrating to the central part of arbor 155.
The abrasive brush 150 of this structure is compared with the abrasive brush 250 of the comparative example shown in Figure 14 A, Figure 14 B, even use identical bristle material 154 also can improve brush hardness.
Can consider that this is because even one one rigidity of bristle material 154 is identical, because hair end 154L, the 154R of many bristle materials 154 concentrate, thereby be subjected at a bristle material 154 that many bristle materials 154 also are out of shape under the situation of deformation force.
For the abrasive brush 250 of comparative example, the open angle θ of its base metal part 156 is bigger than the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, and hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 separate on Zhou Fangxiang.Like this, in the abrasive brush 250 that hair end 154L, 154R separate on Zhou Fangxiang, 154 independences of bristle material and separately distortion, so hardness is brushed in the simple addition of their distortion rigidity exactly.In other words, the brush hardness of the abrasive brush 250 of this structure is minimum state (hereinafter referred to as ground state) in the abrasive brush of the identical bristle material 154 that uses identical radical.In the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, because hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 both sides are concentrated, so brush hardness ratio ground state height.
In addition, even brush hardness is in the abrasive brush 250 of the comparative example of ground state,, also can improve brush hardness by improving the rigidity of each bristle material 154.That is, as long as use the material of high rigidity in bristle material 154, or its line of overstriking directly gets final product.But under the situation of the rigidity that improves each bristle material 154, each mao end 154L, 154R become big to the butt pressure of abradant surface.Consequently, produce amount of grinding because of the uneven unfavorable condition in the position of abradant surface.
In the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, owing to the rigidity that does not improve each bristle material 154 improves as a whole brush hardness, so can suppress the deviation of amount of grinding and can carry out grinding operation efficiently.
Then, the inspection whether this abrasive brush 150 is had predetermined brush hardness describes.
In interior all grinding operations of above-mentioned disc wafer 10, create a difference in the required time at the grinding same amount because the brush hardness of abrasive brush 150 is different, can influence grinding operation efficient.That is, when the brush hardness of abrasive brush 150 is hanged down, thereby grind spended time grinding operation decrease in efficiency.
By using appropriateness and not having the abrasive brush 150 of the brush hardness of deviation, shortened and constant the grinding operation time, can carry out rational grinding operation.
For this reason, need to check abrasive brush 150 and abrasive brush with predetermined brush hardness and the abrasive brush that does not have predetermined brush hardness are differentiated, only use to have the predetermined abrasive brush 150 of brushing hardness.In the present embodiment, can differentiate simply by its form feature.
That is, observe the outward appearance of abrasive brush 150, whether hair end 154L, 154R that investigation constitutes bristle material 154 both sides of these brush row 152 concentrate on the central authorities of brushing row 152.
Thus, can confirm that abrasive brush 150 has the above brush hardness of ground state.At this moment, can whether can see that arbor 155 is judgment standard (an inspection benchmark) with central authorities at brush row 152.That is, an end side of halved tie ( hair end 154L or 154R) and the other end side (hair is held 154R or 154L) focus on that arbor 155 is covered by bristle material 154 and the situation of invisible degree is investigated.
And then, cannot see under the situation of arbor 155 in the central authorities of brushing row 152, hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 both sides concentrate on the central authorities of brushing row 152.This abrasive brush 150 is differentiated for having predetermined above brush hardness.
On the contrary, can see under the situation of arbor 155, not concentrate thereby hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 both sides keep clear of the central authorities of brush row 152 in the central authorities of brushing row 152.It is that ground state does not have predetermined brush hardness that this abrasive brush 150 is differentiated for brushing hardness.
In addition, when judging brush hardness, can use amplifying units such as microscope, as long as observe with suitable multiple (for example 10 times).
Figure 15 A, Figure 15 B, Figure 16 A and Figure 16 B represent the photo of concrete example.Figure 15 A is the outward appearance of the high abrasive brush 150 of brush hardness, and Figure 15 B is the enlarged photograph of these brush row 152.In addition, Figure 16 A is the outward appearance of the low abrasive brush 250 of brush hardness, and Figure 16 B is the enlarged photograph of these brush row 152.In addition, to the label at each position, so can carry out reference owing in above-mentioned Figure 13 A, Figure 13 B and Figure 14 A, Figure 14 B, also be marked with same numeral.
In the high abrasive brush 150 of the brush hardness shown in Figure 15 A, as above-mentioned judgment standard, hair end 154L, the 154R of bristle material 154 both sides concentrates on the central authorities of brushing row 152 and intensive, and shown in Figure 15 B, can not see arbor 155.Relative with it, in the low abrasive brush 250 of the brush hardness shown in Figure 16 A, shown in Figure 16 B, the central authorities of brush row 152 have the gap of the hair end 154L, the 154R that there are not bristle material 154 both sides, and can see arbor 155 from this gap.
Use these abrasive brush 150,250, carry out the grinding operation in the interior week of above-mentioned disc wafer 10, measure the required time of grinding of 13~20 μ m with the same terms.Consequently, average out to is 16 minutes in the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, and average out to is 32 minutes in the abrasive brush 250 of comparative example.In addition, about abradant surface, the abrasive brush 150 of using present embodiment is good, can see striped at abradant surface with 250 of the abrasive brush of comparative example.Like this, the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment can be finished grinding operation with half milling time of the pact of the abrasive brush 250 of comparative example.Abradant surface is also good, can confirm the validity of this structure.In addition, can see that the reason of striped can think at abradant surface with the abrasive brush 250 of the low comparative example of brush hardness, in the trickle crackle that the hair end of thin and soft bristle material 154 forms when invading in last operation with the inner peripheral surface of the perforate 12 of interior all grinding stones 22 (with reference to Figure 1B) grinding disc wafer 10, owing to abrasive action makes crackle expansion.
The specification of the abrasive brush 150,250 shown in Figure 15 A and Figure 16 A is as follows:
Brush external diameter: 13mm
The diameter of axle core 151: 4mm
The material of bristle material 154: 66 nylon
The diameter of bristle material 154: 0.1mm
The density of the bristle material 154 in the brush row 152: 400~500/cm
The diameter of arbor 155: 0.6mm
As above describe in detail like that, according to the abrasive brush 150 of present embodiment, can obtain not having the abrasive brush 150 of the suitable brush hardness of deviation.In addition, can easily differentiate abrasive brush 150 from outward appearance with this brush hardness.And then, by using this abrasive brush 150, can carry out stable grinding operation with high-accuracy high-efficiency ground.
In addition, the application's invention is not limited to the structure shown in the above-mentioned embodiment, can suitably change.
