Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present application and corresponding drawings. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the application. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.
The technical scheme disclosed by each embodiment of the application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application discloses a robot and a semiconductor processing apparatus, wherein the robot includes a support arm 100 and an adsorption member 200.
The supporting arm 100 is a supporting structure of a manipulator, and can play a supporting role on the adsorbing member 200, and the adsorbing member 200 is a main functional structure of the manipulator, and can pick up a machined workpiece to be machined, such as a wafer, under the supporting role of the supporting arm 100. The support arm 100 is fixedly connected with the adsorption member 200, so that the connection relationship between the support arm 100 and the adsorption member 200 is stable, and the support arm 100 can stably play a supporting role on the adsorption member 200.
The suction piece 200 is provided with a negative pressure suction hole, and the pressure in the negative pressure suction hole is negative pressure, so that when the negative pressure suction hole is close to a workpiece to be picked up, the workpiece to be picked up can be sucked onto the suction piece 200, and the picking up function of the manipulator is realized. The outer edge of the absorbing member 200 is provided with a circular arc opening 211, and the circular arc opening 211 and the supporting arm 100 are respectively positioned at two opposite sides of the absorbing member 200. In the related experiment, the opposite side of the adsorption member 200 to the support arm 100 is the reference side opposite to the reference side, the opposite area of the reference side is the area with more byproducts, and the circular arc-shaped notch 211 is formed in the opposite area of the reference side, so that more byproducts are prevented from occurring in the opposite area of the reference side, and the manipulator is prevented from polluting the workpiece to be processed when picking up the workpiece to be processed.
The manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the application is used for alleviating the phenomenon that byproducts are easy to occur in the area opposite to the reference edge where the circular arc-shaped notch 211 is formed by forming the circular arc-shaped notch 211 in the area where the adsorbing member 200 is distributed opposite to the supporting arm 100 by improving the structure of the manipulator in the related art, so that the condition that the workpiece to be polluted by the manipulator is polluted by the byproducts can be indirectly relieved, less byproducts are polluted by the workpiece to be treated, the influence of the byproducts on the quality of the workpiece to be treated can be relieved, and the quality of the workpiece to be treated can be improved.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, the center of the circular arc opening 211 and the center of the adsorbing member 200 may coincide, so that a circle formed by the radius of the circular arc opening 211 and a circle formed by the radius of the adsorbing member 200 may be concentric circles, so that the circular arc opening 211 may be easily opened on the adsorbing member 200, thereby manufacturing of the circular arc opening 211 in the manipulator may be simplified, and in a related experiment, it is known that a byproduct of a workpiece is mostly present in a region within an angle range opposite to the reference edge, in this case, a central angle of the circular arc opening 211 may be greater than or equal to 60 ° and less than or equal to 120 °, so that a region where a byproduct is intensively present may be cut off, thereby forming the circular arc opening 211, and further reducing a region where a byproduct is intensively present in the manipulator, so as to reduce pollution of the byproduct to the workpiece to be processed.
Meanwhile, the arc-shaped notch 211 is formed in the absorbing member 200, namely, the part of the structure on the absorbing member 200 is cut off, so that the weight of the absorbing member 200 can be reduced, the supporting arm 100 is helped to support the absorbing member 200 more stably, the sagging of the manipulator when the manipulator moves to take a workpiece to be processed can be improved, and the phenomenon that the workpiece to be processed is polluted by a byproduct due to uneven stress when the manipulator moves to take the workpiece to be processed under the relatively uneven condition can be avoided.
In a further embodiment, the center line of the circular arc-shaped opening 211 along the radial direction of the absorbent member 200 may be a first center line, the center line of the support arm 100 along the radial direction of the absorbent member 200 may be a second center line, and the first center line and the second center line are collinear and all pass through the center of the absorbent member 200. In this case, the center line of the circular arc-shaped opening 211 coincides with the center line of the support arm 100, that is, the circular arc-shaped opening 211 and the support arm 100 are symmetrically arranged in the manipulator, so that the support of the adsorption member 200 by the support arm 100 can be balanced. Optionally, the whole absorbing member 200 and the supporting arm 100 may be axisymmetric structures, so that the supporting arm 100 can uniformly support the whole structure of the absorbing member 200, thereby being beneficial to the absorbing member 200 to stably realize negative pressure absorption of a workpiece to be processed through the negative pressure absorption holes in the working process of the manipulator.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, the adsorbing member 200 may include an inner ring adsorption region 220 and an outer ring adsorption region 210, where the inner ring adsorption region 220 and the outer ring adsorption region 210 are coaxially disposed, and the inner ring adsorption region 220 is located within the outer ring adsorption region 210. In this case, the adsorption member 200 has different adsorption regions, specifically, an inner ring adsorption region 220 and an outer ring adsorption region 210, and the outer ring adsorption region 210 is disposed around the inner ring adsorption region 220.
In an alternative solution, the circular arc-shaped opening 211 may be formed on the edge of the outer ring adsorption area 210 facing away from the inner ring adsorption area 220, and the negative pressure adsorption hole is formed on at least one of the inner ring adsorption area 220 and the outer ring adsorption area 210, specifically, the negative pressure adsorption hole may be formed in the inner ring adsorption area 220, and in the case that the inner ring adsorption area 220 is concave in the outer ring adsorption area 210, the inner ring adsorption area 220 in the adsorption piece 200 may form a negative pressure cavity, and a relatively balanced pressure value in the negative pressure cavity may be beneficial for the adsorption piece 200 to pick up the workpiece stably, so as to avoid pollution caused by unstable contact between the adsorption piece 200 and the workpiece to be processed, and meanwhile, the usability of the manipulator may also be improved. Of course, the negative pressure adsorption hole may also be formed on the outer ring adsorption region 210, or the negative pressure adsorption hole may be formed on both the inner ring adsorption region 220 and the outer ring adsorption region 210, which is not limited by the specific position of the negative pressure adsorption hole.
In a further aspect, the negative pressure adsorption hole may include a plurality of first adsorption holes 212 and a plurality of second adsorption holes 221, where the plurality of first adsorption holes 212 are disposed in the outer ring adsorption region 210 at intervals, and the plurality of second adsorption holes 221 are disposed in the inner ring adsorption region 220 at intervals. In this case, the inner ring adsorption area 220 and the outer ring adsorption area 210 are both provided with negative pressure adsorption holes, so that the larger area on the adsorption piece 200 can realize the function of negative pressure adsorption, and meanwhile, the interval arrangement of the first adsorption holes 212 and the second adsorption holes 221 can be beneficial to forming a negative pressure cavity in the inner ring adsorption area 220 more quickly, so that the starting efficiency of the adsorption piece 200 for picking up workpieces can be improved.
In another alternative, the plurality of second adsorption holes 221 may include a strip-shaped hole and a plurality of round holes, the strip-shaped hole is disposed at an inner side of the circular arc-shaped opening 211, and the plurality of second adsorption holes 221 are spaced apart along a circumferential direction of the inner ring adsorption region 220. In this case, the flow area of the strip-shaped hole is larger than that of the round hole, that is, the flow rate of the gas passing through the strip-shaped hole can be larger than that of the gas passing through the round hole at the same time, so that the strip-shaped hole can further improve the starting efficiency when the adsorbing member 200 picks up the workpiece to be machined. Meanwhile, the strip-shaped holes can be arranged as holes capable of adjusting the air flow, so that staff can adjust the air flow through the strip-shaped holes according to actual demands, and the suction fitting 200 is used for meeting different pickup demands of workpieces to be processed.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, the plurality of first adsorption holes 212 may include a first group of first adsorption holes 212 and a second group of first adsorption holes 212, where the first group of first adsorption holes 212 and the second group of first adsorption holes 212 are symmetrically arranged through a line passing through the center of the circular arc-shaped opening 211 and the center of the circle of the adsorption member 200. In this case, the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 are symmetrically disposed at two sides of the circular arc-shaped opening 211, that is, the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 are symmetrically disposed on the adsorption member 200, so that the adsorption member 200 can balance the pick-up function of the adsorption member 200 and the support function of the support arm 100 on the adsorption member 200.
In a further technical solution, the first group of first adsorption holes 212 may be distributed in a preset shape, and the first group of first adsorption holes 212 exhibiting the distribution in the preset shape may be relatively concentrated at a point, and the distances between the first group of first adsorption holes 212 and the center of the circle of the adsorption piece 200 may not be completely equal, so that the first group of first adsorption holes 212 may exert adsorption effects on the workpiece to be processed in multiple directions, so that the workpiece to be processed may receive adsorption forces from different directions, and thus the adsorption piece 200 may achieve stability when adsorbing the workpiece to be processed in a negative pressure with a smaller flow.
In an alternative solution, the preset shapes may be multiple, and generally for the first group of the first adsorption holes 212 to be relatively symmetrical and concentrated, the preset shapes may be W-shaped, V-shaped or S-shaped, so that the preset shapes can avoid a sliding vane phenomenon caused by uneven stress on the workpiece to be processed to a certain extent, and further reduce the possibility that the manipulator is stained with byproducts in the process of repeatedly picking up the workpiece to be processed. The embodiment of the application does not limit the specific shape of the preset shape.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, the distances between the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 and the circular arc-shaped opening 211 may be a first distance, the distances between the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 and the support arm 100 are a second distance, the first distance is the distance between the centers of the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 and the center of the circular arc-shaped opening 211, and the second distance is the distance between the centers of the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 and the center of the support arm 100.
In an alternative solution, the first distance may be smaller than the second distance, in this case, the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 are formed at positions relatively close to the circular arc-shaped opening 211, and the area on the adsorption piece 200 where the circular arc-shaped opening 211 is formed cannot be provided with the negative pressure adsorption holes, so that the phenomenon that the workpiece to be processed is picked up unevenly may occur on the adsorption piece 200, and the first set of first adsorption holes 212 and the second set of first adsorption holes 212 are close to the circular arc-shaped opening 211, so that the problem that the workpiece to be processed is picked up unevenly by the adsorption piece 200 can be relieved to a certain extent because the area on the adsorption piece 200 cannot be provided with the negative pressure adsorption holes.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, the circular arc-shaped opening 211 may have a first size in the radial direction of the adsorbing member 200, and the outer ring adsorption region 210 may have a second size in the radial direction of the adsorbing member 200, where the first size is smaller than the second size. In this case, the circular arc-shaped opening 211 is formed at the edge of the outer ring adsorption region 210, that is, only the region with more byproducts is cut off, so that the integrity of the adsorption member 200 can be ensured to a greater extent, and the circular arc-shaped opening 211 is not contacted with the inner ring adsorption region 220, so that the inner ring adsorption region 220 is complete, and further, the inner ring adsorption region 220 can be ensured to be provided with a negative pressure adsorption hole, so as to ensure that the adsorption member 200 realizes functions.
In the manipulator disclosed in the embodiment of the present application, a connection hole 230 may be formed on a surface of the suction member 200 facing away from the negative pressure suction hole, the connection hole 230 is communicated with the negative pressure suction hole, the manipulator may further include a negative pressure air suction pipe and a positive pressure air supply pipe, the air pressure in the negative pressure air suction pipe is less than atmospheric pressure, the air pressure in the positive pressure air supply pipe may be higher than atmospheric pressure, and the negative pressure air suction pipe and the positive pressure air supply pipe are both connected with the connection hole 230, so that the connection hole 230 may be in a negative pressure environment or a positive pressure environment.
Specifically, the manipulator may have different states, and in the case that the manipulator is in the first state, the manipulator is in a working state, the negative pressure air suction pipe is communicated with the connection hole 230, and the positive pressure air supply pipe is blocked from the connection hole 230, and the negative pressure air suction pipe is used for sucking air from the connection hole 230; at this time, the connection hole 230 is in a negative pressure environment, and the negative pressure adsorption hole can be communicated with a negative pressure air suction pipeline through the connection hole 230, so as to realize the negative pressure environment of the surface of the adsorption piece 200, so that the manipulator can realize negative pressure pickup of the workpiece to be processed. And under the condition that the manipulator is in the second state, the manipulator can also be after finishing the work for a long time, before the manipulator starts, the negative pressure air suction pipeline is blocked with the connecting hole 230, and the positive pressure air supply pipeline is communicated with the connecting hole 230, and the positive pressure air supply pipeline is used for blowing air to the connecting hole 230, at this time, the negative pressure adsorption hole can be communicated with the positive pressure air supply pipeline through the connecting hole 230, so that the negative pressure adsorption hole in the adsorption piece 200 can be purged by the gas with higher pressure, thereby realizing the cleaning function of the adsorption piece 200, and further avoiding the pollution of the original by-product on the adsorption piece 200 to the workpiece to be picked up later.
Based on the manipulator, the embodiment of the application also discloses a semiconductor processing device, and the manipulator is any one of the manipulator.
