In the implementation of the carrier and the wafer conveying method using the carrier and the processing device, after the driving member a31 of the lifting mechanism A3 drives the lifting platform a32 to move upwards to enable the upper end of the supporting pin a35 to pass through the hole a14 and be higher than the upper surface of the positioning plate A1 and enable the carrier a to translate on the rail seat B1 to a first position (one end of the rail seat B1), the manipulator R moves into the to-be-processed element W to a preset position above the carrier a through the inlet H1 of the housing H and the space S1 below the gantry rail frame C1 (the holding part R1 of the manipulator R is in the moving section M, and the outer edge of the to-be-processed element W is approximately aligned between the lower three supporting surfaces a351 and the limiting part a 352), and then the manipulator R moves downwards to enable the bottom surface of the to-be-processed element W to be abutted against the supporting surface a351 and the limiting part a352 to be located at the outer edge of the to-be-processed element W for limiting the horizontal displacement of the to-be-processed element W (fig. 10); after the detecting member a355 determines that the component W to be processed has been placed on the supporting pin a35, the manipulator R moves out of the movement section M1 and the driving member a31 drives the lifting platform a32 to move downward, so that the supporting surface a351 of the supporting pin a35 is immersed into the hole a14 and slightly lower than the upper surface of the positioning plate A1, but the limiting portion a352 is still protruding and exposed out of the hole a14, at this time, the bottom surface of the component W to be processed will be abutted against the upper surface of the positioning plate A1, but the limiting portion a352 can still limit the horizontal displacement of the component W to be processed on the positioning plate A1 (fig. 11); the element W to be processed is adsorbed by negative pressure gradually generated from the center of the positioning disk A1 to the outer side on the positioning disk A1, so that the element W to be processed with warping characteristic can be prevented from being damaged due to rapid suction caused by one-time full-area adsorption; the positioning disk A1 is subjected to uniform heat transfer of a plurality of heating plates A17, so that an element W to be processed on the positioning disk A1 can be heated, and the temperature of a corresponding area is sensed at any time by a temperature sensing element A19 so as to feed back to the heating plates A17 for temperature adjustment;
the element W to be processed, which is absorbed and heated by the positioning disc A1, is then conveyed to a second position (approximately in the middle of the rail seat B1) by the carrier A, so that the dispensing mechanism D moves to the position above the second position to perform liquid coating on the element W to be processed; the element W to be processed after coating is sent back to the first position through the carrying platform A, the supporting pin A35 of the jacking mechanism A3 is lifted to prop the element W to be processed to be separated from the upper surface of the positioning disk A1, the holding part R1 of the manipulator R stretches into the moving interval M between the two far supporting pins A35, the manipulator R is upwards displaced to enable the element W to be processed to be separated from the supporting pin A35, and then the element W to be processed is held by the manipulator R and is moved out of the manipulator R;
in the embodiment of the invention, the carrier a is moved into or out of the to-be-processed element W (in-side in-out) by the manipulator R at the first position (one end of the rail seat B1), but two inlets and outlets H1 may be opened on the housing H at two corresponding sides, at this time, the carrier a may translate between the first position (one end of the rail seat B1) and a third position (the other end of the rail seat B1), and the two groups of manipulators R respectively correspond to the two inlets and outlets H1 to be responsible for the movement of the to-be-processed element W, and the carrier a is applied with the liquid material by the dispensing mechanism D from the second position to the third position after carrying the to-be-processed element W moved by the manipulator R at the first position, and then moves out of the to-be-processed element W by the other manipulator R.
According to the carrying platform, the wafer carrying method using the carrying platform and the processing device, the lifting supporting pin A35 is used for carrying the element W to be processed which is moved in by the manipulator R and then descends, so that the bottom surface of the element W to be processed is attached to the upper surface of the positioning disc A1, and the carrying platform A can carry the element W to be processed which is only in the form of a wafer; when the element W to be processed is carried on the positioning disk A1, the limiting part A352 of the supporting pin A35 can limit the horizontal displacement of the element W to be processed, so that not only can the deflection of the element W to be processed caused by thermal warping or bouncing after the negative pressure of the positioning disk A1 is relieved be prevented, but also the deflection of the element W to be processed caused by shaking on the positioning disk A1 can be prevented when the carrier A translates and conveys the element W to be processed on the rail seat B1; in addition, only one carrying platform A is required to move and convey the element W to be processed on the rail seat B1 to different positions for corresponding processing, and a plurality of carrying platforms A are not required to be arranged, so that the arrangement cost of the carrying platforms A can be reduced.
Referring to fig. 12 and 13, in another embodiment of the present invention, the to-be-processed element W 'is in the form of a Frame, and the distribution positions of the supporting member a34' and the supporting pin a35 'are changed only to correspond to the outer edges of different to-be-processed elements W'; the lifting platform A32' is provided with a plurality of four supporting pieces A34', one ends of the four supporting pieces A34' are respectively fixedly arranged on four corners of the lifting platform A32', the other ends of the four supporting pieces A35' can clamp the supporting pins A35', the supporting pins A35' are arranged in a mode that the supporting pins A35' can be distributed on the periphery of the outer side of the positioning disk A1', the bottom surface of the outer edge of the frame of the element W ' to be processed can be attached to the supporting surface A351', and the limiting part A352' is positioned on the outer edge of the element W ' to be processed; the upper end of the supporting pin a35 'is higher than the upper surface of the positioning plate A1' when the elevating platform a32 'is upwardly displaced, and the supporting surface a351' of the supporting pin a35 'is slightly lower than the upper surface of the positioning plate A1' when the elevating platform a32 'is downwardly displaced, but the restriction portion a352' is still higher than the upper surface of the positioning plate A1 'to restrict the horizontal displacement of the component W' to be processed.
