The diameter of the circular lower surface 26b is equal to or greater than the diameter of the outer ring 16b of the bearing 16. In addition, a bolt 28 is provided in the center of the clamp base 24, and the clamp base 24 and the clamp body 26 comprise Polyoxymethylene (POM), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) plastic or other elastic materials.
Fig. 4 to 5 are views showing a method of disassembling a bearing of a wafer rotating apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein fig. 4 is an exploded view of fig. 5, and in fig. 4 and 5, elements having the same function will be used with the same reference numerals as in fig. 1 to 3. Referring to fig. 4 and 5, a clamp base 24 and a clamp body 26 are provided, wherein the clamp body 26 includes a circular upper surface 26a and a circular lower surface 26b, the circular lower surface 26b has a diameter larger than that of the circular upper surface 26a, a bolt 28 is disposed at the center of the clamp base 24, then a ring gear 14 is provided, a first bearing 116 is inserted into the center of the ring gear 14 while the first bearing 116 includes a first inner ring 116a and a first outer ring 116b, then a bearing removing step is performed, the back surface 14b of the ring gear 14 is faced upward, that is, the face of the ring gear 14 having the groove 20 is faced downward, the clamp base 24 is placed under the ring gear 14, the clamp body 26 is placed over the ring gear 14, the first bearing 116 is clamped by the clamp base 24 and the clamp body 26, the circular upper surface 26a of the clamp body 26 covers the first inner ring 116a, the bolt 28 passes through the center of the first bearing 116 and the center of the clamp body 26, then a nut 32 is pushed out of the end of the bolt 28 by a spanner 30 toward the clamp body 26 by the end of the bolt 28 to remove the first bearing 24 and the clamp body 26 from the center of the ring gear 14. A spacer 34 may also be placed between the nut 32 and the clamp body 26 to prevent the nut 32 from damaging the surface of the clamp body 26.
Fig. 6 to 7 are views showing a method of loading a bearing of a wafer rotating apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein fig. 6 is an exploded view of fig. 7, and in fig. 6 and 7, elements having the same function will be used with the same reference numerals as in fig. 1 to 3. Referring to fig. 6 and 7, a second bearing 216 is provided, wherein the shape of the second bearing 216 is identical to the shape of the first bearing 116, that is, the second bearing 216 is a replacement for the first bearing 116, then a bearing-loading step is performed, which includes upward facing the front face 14a of the ring gear 14, then aligning the second bearing 216 with the groove 20 in the center of the front face 14a of the ring gear 14, and placing the circular lower surface 26b of the clamp body 26 in contact with the second bearing 216 and the clamp base 24 on the other side of the ring gear 14 with respect to the clamp body 26, that is, placing the clamp body 26 on the front face 14a of the ring gear 14, placing the clamp base 24 on the back face 14b of the ring gear 14, where the bolt 28 passes through the center of the second bearing 216 and the center of the clamp body 26, then screwing the nut 32 onto the bolt 28 from the end of the bolt 28 toward the clamp body 26, and placing the spacer 34 between the nut 32 and the clamp body 26 can likewise prevent the nut 32 from damaging the surface of the clamp body 26. While pushing the second bearing 216, the circular lower surface 26b of the clamp body 26 contacts the second bearing 216, and because the diameter of the circular lower surface 26b is greater than or equal to the diameter of the outer ring 216b of the second bearing 216, the second bearing 216 will be entirely covered by the circular lower surface 26b, and while pushing, the pushing force from the clamp body 26 can be applied on the second bearing 216 on average. After the second bearing 216 is embedded, the clamp base 24 and the clamp body 26 are removed. The replacement of the first bearing 116 is completed at this time.
Traditionally, the bearings are replaced by a wrench, such as a socket wrench, inserted into the space between the bearing balls to knock the bearings out, however, this approach can cause the carrier to wobble and the bearings to be damaged. The clamp designed in the anti-observation scheme is relatively flexible and elastic in material, so that the surface of the bearing cannot be damaged when the clamp contacts the bearing, and in addition, the bearing can be pushed in or pushed out by the average applied thrust because the contact surfaces of the clamp and the bearing are even, and therefore, the bearing is uniformly stressed around the bearing and cannot shake.
The foregoing description is only of the preferred embodiments of the invention, and all changes and modifications that come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
