Referring to fig. 3 to 6, an embodiment of the present invention provides a horizontal adjustment device for a thimble mechanism, which can be used for adjusting the levelness of a plane where the vertex of a thimble is located according to the levelness of a heating plate after the cavity is installed. The thimble mechanism horizontal adjusting device of the embodiment of the invention comprises a plurality of thimbles 201, a jacking mechanism, a driving assembly and an angle adjusting mechanism.
The plurality of ejector pins 201 are all located in the cavity. The number of the ejector pins 201 is three, and the planes of the vertexes of the three ejector pins 201 are used for providing a supporting surface of a substrate, such as a wafer, manufactured by the semiconductor device. A heating plate 202 positioned above the jacking mechanism is also arranged in the cavity, and thimble through holes corresponding to the plurality of thimbles 201 are uniformly formed in the heating plate 202. The plurality of ejector pins 201 are vertically arranged at the top of the jacking mechanism, and the top ends of the ejector pins 201 penetrate through the ejector pin through holes. The bottoms of the ejector pins 201 can be provided with balancing weights, so that the ejector pins 201 can automatically drop after the jacking mechanism descends.
The jacking mechanism is arranged below the plurality of ejector pins 201 and is used for simultaneously jacking the plurality of ejector pins 201. The top of the jacking mechanism penetrates through the bottom of the cavity and is connected with the bottom of the cavity. The climbing mechanism comprises: lifting ring 203, cavity link plate 204, movable column 205, bellows 206, and movable base 207. Wherein, the lifting ring 203 is located in the cavity, and the top of the movable column 205 is fixedly connected with the bottom of the lifting ring 203. The movable column 205 is arranged in the corrugated pipe 206 in a penetrating way, and the bottom end of the movable column 205 is fixedly connected with the movable seat 207 positioned at the bottom of the jacking mechanism. The top of the corrugated pipe 206 is fixedly connected with the bottom of the cavity, and the bottom end of the corrugated pipe 206 is fixedly connected with the top of the movable seat 207. Specifically, the top of the bellows 206 is fixedly connected to the cavity connecting plate 204, and the cavity connecting plate 204 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cavity. A sealing ring 2041 is provided in the cavity web 204. The cavity connecting plate 204, the movable column 205, the corrugated pipe 206 and the movable seat 207 are all fixedly connected. Therefore, air seal is formed between the jacking mechanism and the cavity, so that a certain vacuum degree can be kept in the cavity.
The driving assembly is connected with the bottom of the movable seat 207 and is used for driving the jacking mechanism to jack the ejector pin 201. The drive assembly includes: a driving element 209, a positioning rod 210 and a connecting element 208 arranged below the movable seat 207 of the lifting mechanism.
The angle adjusting mechanism is connected to the movable base 207 and the connecting member 208, respectively, and is used to adjust and maintain the angle of the movable base 207 with respect to the connecting member 208 within a predetermined angle range.
When in use, the driving piece 209 drives the movable seat 207 connected with the connecting piece 208 to move up and down along the positioning rod 210, so that the lifting ring 203 jacks up the ejector pins, the ejector pins with the balancing weights move up and down to pass through the lifting holes of the heating plate 202, when the ejector pins 201 pass through the lifting holes to reach a certain height, the wafer falls onto the top points of the ejector pins 201 with the balancing weights, and then the ejector pins slowly fall down, so that the wafer is placed on the heating plate.
When the installation of the equipment is completed, if the levelness of the spraying device at the top of the cavity deviates due to factors such as the processing precision and the assembly precision of the hinge, the heating plate 202 can be adjusted to keep the required levelness with the spraying device. The angle between the movable base 207 and the connecting member 208 can then be adjusted by an angle adjustment mechanism, so that the plane of the apex of the ejector pin and the heating plate 202 etc. maintain a desired levelness.
The angle adjustment mechanism includes: three adjusting members. Illustratively, any one of the adjustment members may form a rotational portion with the movable mount 207 and the remaining two adjustment members may be capable of driving the movable mount 207 to rotate relative to the connection member 208 based on the rotational portion. Therefore, the adjustment of the thimble angle can be realized by simultaneously adjusting the height or the height of the adjusting piece; and the rotation part is formed by one of the adjusting parts, which is easy to realize.
As an alternative, any two adjusting members can form a rotation axis with the movable base 207 and the remaining one adjusting member can drive the movable base 207 to rotate about the rotation axis with respect to the connecting member 208. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the angle of the ejector pin may be adjusted by the rotation fit of the adjusting member and the movable base 207.
Specifically, the adjusting member may be ball screws 211, the movable seat 207 has a ball rotating cavity 2073 engaged with a ball of each ball screw 211, the ball is located in the ball rotating cavity 2073 and the movable seat 207 can rotate relative to the ball. The movable seat 207 being rotatable relative to the ball head means that the movable seat can be rotatable relative to the ball head of any one ball head screw 211, so that the ball head of the ball head screw 211 and the movable seat 207 form a rotation shaft. The connecting piece 208 is provided with a through hole 2084 corresponding to the threaded rod of the ball screw 211, and the threaded rod is arranged in the through hole 2084 in a penetrating way. Also provided within the connector 208 is an adjustment nut 212 that mates with the threaded rod. The adjusting nut 212 has a thread groove adapted to the thread on the threaded rod of the ball screw 211, and the movable base 207 can be driven to rotate relative to the connecting piece 208 by screwing the bottom end of the threaded rod of the ball screw 211, and simultaneously the adjusting nut 212 is matched with the threaded rod so that the movable base 207 and the connecting piece 208 are locked at a required angle. It should be noted that the threaded rod of the ball screw 211 may have a threaded section corresponding to the adjusting nut 212, and the height of the threaded section is the range of up-down movement of the ball screw 211, and the portion of the threaded rod not matching with the nut may be smooth and cylindrical. The through hole 2084 is slightly larger than the threaded rod of the ball screw 211, so as to prevent the ball screw 211 from being blocked when the height is adjusted.
Wherein, the number of the ball head rotating cavities 2073 is three, and the three ball head rotating cavities 2073 are uniformly distributed on the movable seat 207 and are positioned at the edge of the movable seat 207. The outer peripheral wall of the movable base 207 has a chamfer 2075 enabling the movable base 207 to rotate within a predetermined angular range with respect to the connecting member 208. It is understood that, for any two adjusting members and the movable base 207 may form a rotation shaft, the bottom of the movable base 207 may be in an equilateral triangle, and the three ball rotating cavities 2073 are respectively located at the vertices of the triangle. Illustratively, the chamfer 2075 may be sized at a 45 angle with the chamfer 2075 immediately adjacent the ball pivot cavity 2073 so that the movable mount 207 can be rotated at an angle relative to the connection 208. For example, the predetermined angle range may be 0-4 °, that is, the movable base 207 may achieve fine adjustment of the angle within 4 ° with respect to the connecting piece 208, so that the plane of the vertex of the ejector pin 201 may maintain a desired levelness with the heating plate 202. Small amplitude adjustment within 4 degrees can be fully compatible with the design size of the existing corrugated pipe. However, without being limited thereto, a larger angular range of adjustment can be achieved by adjusting the bellows design as long as frictional interference does not occur between the bellows 206 and the movable post 205.
The bottom of the bellows 206 is fixedly connected with the top of the movable seat 207, and an annular adjusting gap 2061 is left between the bellows 206 and the movable post 205, and the annular adjusting gap 2061 is used for providing a fit gap when the movable seat 207 rotates relative to the connecting piece 208 within a preset angle range, so that interference between the bellows 206 and the movable post 205 can be avoided, and the movable post 205 can still freely move in the bellows 206 when the angle between the movable seat 207 and the connecting piece 208 is adjusted to a larger angle. Specifically, compared with the prior art, the inner diameter of the bellows 206 can be increased from 1CM to 2CM, so that the movable column 205 can have enough movement space in the bellows 206 within a certain angle range, but the inner diameter of the bellows 206 is not particularly limited, so long as the air tightness and smoothness of the movable column during movement can be considered.
As an example, the movable base 207 may include a top substrate 2071 and a bottom substrate 2072. The top substrate 2071 and the bottom substrate 2072 are fixedly connected by a movable seat lock bolt 2074. The top substrate 2071 and the bottom substrate 2072 are formed with a ball rotating cavity 2073, the ball of the ball screw 211 is matched with the ball rotating cavity 2073 and the movable seat 207 can rotate relative to the ball. In the mounting process, the threaded rod of the ball screw 211 penetrates from the top of the bottom base plate 2072, and the bottom base plate 2072 and the top base plate 2071 are aligned and then locked and fixed through the movable base locking bolt 2074. The number of the movable seat locking bolts 2074 may be three, but is not limited thereto, as long as the top substrate 2071 and the bottom substrate 2072 can be firmly locked. In this embodiment, the top substrate 2071 may be a movable base of an existing thimble lifting mechanism, and the top substrate 2071 and the bottom substrate 2072 may respectively form a partial ball rotating cavity 2073.
Correspondingly, for the scheme that any two adjusting members and the movable seat 207 can form a rotating shaft, the base substrate 2072 can be made to be in an equilateral triangle, and the movable seat 207 can be ensured to rotate for a certain angle relative to the connecting member 208.
The connection 208 may include a top connection plate 2081 and a bottom connection plate 2082, with the top connection plate 2081 and the bottom connection plate 2082 being fixedly connected by a connection locking bolt 2083. The number of the connector locking bolts 2083 may be 4, and is not particularly limited herein, as long as the top connector plate 2081 and the bottom connector plate 2082 can be firmly locked. Wherein, an adjusting nut 212 can be arranged in the top connecting plate 2081. Or the adjusting nut 212 can be arranged in the bottom connecting plate 2082, correspondingly, the top connecting plate 2081 can be connected with a connecting piece in the prior art, at the moment, when abrasion occurs, only the bottom connecting plate 2082, the adjusting nut 212 and the like can be replaced, the top connecting plate 2081 connected with the driving piece 209 does not need to be replaced, and the maintenance cost is saved. And adjusting nuts 212 are arranged in the top connecting plate 2081 and the bottom connecting plate 2082, namely, part of the adjusting nuts 212 is positioned at the bottom of the top connecting plate 2081, and the other part is positioned at the top of the bottom connecting plate 2082.
