Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention refers to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present invention, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
As an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a carrier apparatus, as shown in fig. 2, including a susceptor 10 for supporting a substrate 20, wherein a plurality of gas passages 12 are formed through the susceptor 10 in the susceptor 10. The bearing device further comprises a driving mechanism for driving the balls 13 to move towards the top of the gas channel 12 so as to lift the substrate 20 on the bearing table 10 (as shown in fig. 2 and 4), and the balls 13 for lifting the substrate 20 can rotate freely on the top of the gas channel 12. In the present invention, "top" refers to a portion close to the substrate 20, "top" refers to an end close to the substrate 20, and "bottom" refers to an end far from the substrate 20.
In the present invention, when the substrate 20 is aligned, the driving mechanism drives the balls 13 to lift the substrate 20, and then the substrate 20 is moved, and the substrate 20 is in contact with the balls 13 during the movement and is no longer in contact with the susceptor 10, as shown in fig. 2 and 3. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the invention can prevent the surface of the bearing platform 10 from being mirrored due to long-time friction, the adhesive force between the substrate 20 and the bearing platform 10 is small, and the substrate 20 is easier to jack up; in addition, the rolling friction between the substrate 20 and the balls 13 is small when the substrate 20 moves, so that the substrate 20 can move conveniently, and the alignment success rate is improved.
The driving mechanism may adopt various structures and manners to drive the balls 13 to move towards the substrate 20, and as an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the driving mechanism includes a lifting rod 40, the balls 20 are rotatably disposed on the top of the lifting rod 40, and the lifting rod 40 is used for controlling the lifting of the balls 13 in the gas channel 12. Specifically, the top of the lifting rod 40 may be provided with a groove in which the ball 13 is disposed to maintain stability; and the tip of the ball 13 is exposed from the groove to be able to contact the substrate 20.
As another embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism includes a blowing structure including an air hole communicating with the air passage 12, and the blowing structure is used for blowing air to the air passage to jack up the ball 13 by the air flow. By adjusting the pressure of the air flow blown by the air blowing structure, the balls can be blown by the air flow, so as to lift the substrate 20, as shown in fig. 4.
In the present invention, a ball 13 is provided in each gas passage 12. The gas channel 12 can be used as a blowing channel or an adsorption channel, and a small amount of clearance can be formed between the balls 13 and the inner wall of the gas channel 12, so that the balls 13 can be jacked up by the gas flow and the adsorption on the substrate 20 is not influenced. Of course, the balls 13 may be disposed in a part of the gas passage 12, and the balls 13 may be attached to the inner wall of the gas passage 12, so that the gas blowing structure may be more easily jacked up when blowing the gas flow; the other part of the gas passages 12 is not provided with the balls 13, and the part of the gas passages 12 not provided with the balls 13 can be used as an adsorption passage for adsorbing the substrate 20.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the gas passage 12 includes a first passage portion 121 and a second passage portion 122 coaxially disposed, a bottom end of the first passage portion 121 is connected to a top end of the second passage portion 122, the ball 13 is located in the first passage portion 121, and a diameter of the top end of the second passage portion 122 is smaller than a diameter of the ball 13. When the air blowing structure is not blowing air, the ball 13 is supported at the top end position of the second channel part 122 (as shown in fig. 3); when the air blowing structure blows air, the ball 13 only moves in the first channel part 121, and is more favorably jacked up by the air flow.
Further specifically, in order to prevent the balls 13 from coming off the bearing table 10 when the air blowing structure blows air, the tip diameter of the first passage portion 121 is smaller than the diameter of the balls 13, and a part of the balls 13 can be exposed from the tip opening of the first passage portion 121.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the inner diameter of the first passage part 121 gradually increases from the top end of the first passage part 121 to a predetermined position, which is larger than the diameter of the balls 13, between the top end of the first passage part 121 and the bottom end of the first passage part 121, for example, at a central position between the top end and the bottom end of the first passage part 121. As shown in fig. 5, the surface of the carrier 10 is further formed with grooves 14, and the grooves 14 are used for communicating the first channel parts 121 of every two adjacent gas channels 12. When the gas blowing structure blows gas into the gas passage 12, the balls 13 are lifted up by the gas flow, and a part of the gas flows into the grooves 14 due to the gap between the balls 13 and the first passage part 121, thereby further reducing the bonding force between the substrate 20 and the susceptor 10 and more easily lifting up the substrate 20. And, when the substrate 20 is adsorbed, the grooves 14 communicate different gas channels 12, so that the substrate 20 is more smoothly attached on the susceptor 10.
FIG. 5 is a top view of the susceptor; FIG. 6 is a top view of the ball in one of the gas passages moving to the top of the gas passage; fig. 7 is a sectional view a-a of fig. 6. In order to more clearly see the state of the ball 13 at the top of the gas channel 12, fig. 7 only shows the first channel part 121, and the second channel part 122 is not shown. As shown in fig. 5 to 7, the groove 14 specifically includes a first groove portion 141 and a second groove portion 142, and the first groove portion 141 is directly communicated with the gas channel 12. During the process of blowing air by the blowing structure to lift the ball 13, a part of the air flows into the first groove portion 141 and the second groove portion 142; when the ball 13 moves to the opening at the top end of the gas channel 12, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the edge of the first groove portion 141 away from the gas channel does not contact the ball 13, so that a part of the gas flows into the first groove portion 141 and the second groove portion 142 from the gas channel 12. The width of the second groove part 142 may be 1/15-1/10 of the inner diameter of the first channel part 121 at a predetermined position, so that the groove 14 can be filled with gas quickly.
When the top end opening of the first channel part 121 is small, in order to facilitate replacement of the balls 13, it is preferable that the bearing table 10 includes a first body 10a and a plurality of second bodies 10b detachably connected to the first body 10a (for example, the first body 10a and the second body 10b are connected by screws), as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the second bodies 10b are in one-to-one correspondence with the gas channels 12, a portion of the first channel part 121 from the top end thereof to the predetermined position penetrates the second body 10b, and the remaining portion of the first channel part 121 and the second channel part 122 penetrate the first body 10 a.
In order to reduce static electricity generated during the movement of the substrate 20, it is preferable that the air blowing structure includes an ion blower to blow out an ion wind including a large amount of positive and negative charges, so as to neutralize the positive and negative charges on the surface of the substrate 20, reduce static electricity on the substrate 20, and further reduce damage of the static electricity to the pattern on the surface of the substrate 20.
As shown in fig. 8, in order to realize automatic alignment of the substrate 20, the carrier further includes a position detection device 50 and an alignment assembly disposed on the carrier 10, wherein the position detection device 50 is used for detecting the edge position of the substrate 20; the alignment assembly is used for moving the substrate 20 according to the edge position of the substrate 20, so that the substrate 20 is located in a predetermined area. The position detection may include a position sensor corresponding to the position of the substrate 20, and the aligning assembly may include a plurality of aligning members 30 corresponding to the edges of the substrate 20 to push the edges of the substrate 20.
A plurality of mounting holes (not shown) may be further provided in the carrier stage 10, and the carrier device may further include a plurality of support pins passing through the mounting holes. When the glue application is completed, the support pins are raised in the mounting holes to jack up the substrate 10, and then, the robot takes the substrate away.
It can be seen that, when the substrate 20 on the carrier 10 is aligned according to the present invention, the driving mechanism drives the balls 13 to jack up the substrate 20, and then the substrate 20 is moved, and the substrate 20 is in contact with the balls 13 during the movement and is no longer in contact with the carrier 10. Therefore, the invention can prevent the surface of the bearing platform 10 from being mirrored due to long-time friction, the adhesive force between the substrate 20 and the bearing platform 10 is small, and the substrate 20 is easier to jack; in addition, the rolling friction between the substrate 20 and the balls 13 is small when the substrate 20 moves, so that the substrate 20 can move conveniently, and the alignment success rate is improved. In addition, the driving mechanism may include an ion blower, and the ion wind blown by the ion blower lifts the balls on one hand and flows into the grooves 14 on the surface of the susceptor 10 on the other hand, so that the static electricity on the surface of the substrate 20 can be neutralized, and the damage of the static electricity to the surface pattern of the substrate 20 can be reduced.
As another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gluing device, including the above-mentioned carrying device.
Because the bearing device can facilitate the movement of the substrate and improve the alignment success rate of the substrate, the gluing effect can be improved when the gluing equipment is used for gluing the substrate.
It will be understood that the above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments taken to illustrate the principles of the present invention, which is not limited thereto. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit and substance of the invention, and these modifications and improvements are also considered to be within the scope of the invention.
