In one embodiment, the lower portion 102 contains an etching solution therein. Wherein a substrate 40 is disposed within the etching chamber 10. The bottom of the etching chamber 10 is provided with a liquid inlet 11 and a liquid outlet 12. Wherein the number of the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 can be one or more.

The barrier 70 includes a first sub-barrier 71 and a second sub-barrier 72. The first sub-barrier 71 is located on a side of the outlet 15 or the inlet 14 close to the substrate 40, that is, the first sub-barrier 71 is located below the outlet 15 or the inlet 14. For example, in the initial state, the first sub-barrier 71 and the corresponding second sub-barrier 72 are spaced, wherein the distance between the first sub-barrier 71 and the corresponding second sub-barrier 72 is equal to the width of the inlet or the outlet. In one embodiment, when the etching apparatus is in the second operation mode, such as the soaking mode, and the substrate 40 is transferred into the etching chamber 10, the first sub-barrier 71 and the second sub-barrier 72 on the corresponding side may also abut against each other, so that a closed space is formed between the upper portion 101 and the lower portion 102, and the etching solution may be filled in the whole etching chamber. It is understood that the first sub-barrier 71 and the corresponding second sub-barrier 72 may be continuously spaced.
The spraying part 20 is arranged above the etching chamber 10, namely, is positioned at the upper part 101; the shower unit 20 is used to shower an etching solution onto the substrate 40. Wherein the shower part 20 includes a shower pipe 21 and a plurality of spray nozzles 22 disposed below the shower pipe 21. Wherein the nozzles 22 are arranged in the axial direction of said shower 21.

The initial height of the top of the first roller 50 is equal to the initial height of the top of the first sub stopper 71.
Wherein, in one embodiment, the initial height of the top of the second roller 60 is less than the initial height of the top of the first roller 50. Wherein a difference between an initial height of the top of the second roller 60 and an initial height of the top of the first stopper 50 ranges from 0.1cm to 10 cm.
The etching apparatus further includes a first control module and a second control module (both not shown), the first control module is used for controlling the first roller 50 to rotate, and the second control module is used for controlling the second roller 60 to rotate.
When the etching apparatus 100 is in the first operating mode, the first roller 50 drives the substrate 40 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction, so as to move the substrate from the outside of the etching chamber to the inside of the etching chamber. The first mode of operation is, for example, a spray mode.
As shown in fig. 2, when the etching apparatus is in the second operation mode, the second roller 60 drives the substrate 40 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. The second mode of operation is, for example, a soak mode.
In conjunction with fig. 1 and 2, during a particular operation, such as when a sensor detects that the substrate 40 is proximate to the etching chamber 10, the first roller 50 rotates to move the substrate 40 from the inlet 14 into the etching chamber 10. When the substrate 40 enters the etching chamber 10, the height of the first roller 50 is lowered, the second roller 60 starts to rotate, and the substrate 40 is driven by the second roller 60 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. When the substrate 40 needs to be transferred out, the first roller 50 is lifted, and the substrate 40 is transferred out of the outlet 15 by the first roller 50. It will be appreciated that the remaining components operate on the same principle as in the prior art.
Because set up the gyro wheel that two kinds of diameters are different, and the initial height at the top of the great gyro wheel of diameter equals with the initial height at the top of first sub-stopper, consequently can need not reduce the height of stopper when removing the base plate, avoid the liquid level decline of etching solution, and then avoid producing Mura in the etching, improved the product yield.
