Therefore, in the practical application process, the equipment man can determine the service life of the polishing pad by a method of determining the machining amount or the depth of the groove, and perform the operation of replacing the new polishing pad.

Detailed Description
In order to make the present invention better understood by those skilled in the art, the following description will make clear and complete descriptions of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in which it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any inventive effort, shall fall within the scope of the present invention.
A polishing pad recycling apparatus includes a polishing head 81, a polishing pad conditioner 82, a liquid supply arm 83, a table 2, a polishing pad 1 placed on the table 2, and a holder 3. Wherein the polishing head 81 loads the wafer and applies pressure to the wafer and the polishing pad 1 to perform polishing work. The table 2 is horizontally placed and rotatable in the circumferential direction. The upper surface of the polishing pad 1 is provided with a groove 11, the polishing pad 1 is arranged on the upper surface of the workbench 2 and rotates along with the workbench 2, namely, the lower surface of the polishing pad 1 is attached to the top surface of the workbench 2, so that the workbench 2 plays a role in supporting the polishing pad 1; the liquid supply arm 83 supplies polishing liquid to the polishing pad 1 and fills the upper surface of the polishing pad 1 and the grooves 11; the pad conditioner 82 conditions and activates the upper surface of the polishing pad 1. As shown in fig. 1, the polishing head 81, the pad conditioner 82, the liquid supply arm 83, and the table 2 together complete the entire polishing operation.
In this embodiment, the platen 2 is a polishing platen, and in other embodiments, other polishing pad reworking platforms are also possible.
The longitudinal direction of the support 3 forms a horizontal slide 31, which horizontal slide 31 is parallel to the table 2 or not exactly parallel, but tends to be parallel. The processing head 4 can translate within the horizontal slide 31 so that the processing head 4 can translate radially along the table 2.
Under the combined action of the polishing liquid, the polishing head 81, the wafer, and the pad conditioner 82, the polishing pad 1 is continuously worn down and thinned, and the depth of the groove 11 becomes gradually shallower. Typically, the polishing pad 1 is bonded to the top surface of the platen 2; when the polishing pad 1 reaches the replacement node, the polishing head 81, the polishing pad conditioner 82 and the liquid supply arm 83 do avoiding actions to make room for removing the polishing pad 1; the operator tears the polishing pad 1 from the edge and replaces the polishing pad 1 with a new one.
In the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, a holder 3 and a processing head 4 provided on the holder 3 are introduced, and the processing head 4 can be extended into the groove 11. Therefore, in the state that the polishing pad 1 is placed on the workbench 2, the workbench 2 is moved, or the support 3 is moved, or the processing head 4 is moved, or any two parts of the workbench 2, the support 3 and the processing head 4 are moved, or the workbench 2, the support 3 and the processing head 4 are moved together, so that the processing head 4 and the groove 11 are relatively displaced along the extending direction of the groove 11, and finally the deepening cutting of the processing head 4 on the groove 11 is realized, and the depth of the groove 11 is increased. Therefore, the polishing pad 1 can be reused without tearing off the table 2, and the polishing pad 1 can be put into use again after finishing the processing.
The polishing pad 1 includes an upper polishing pad 102, a lower polishing pad 101, and grooves 11, and the thickness is referred to in describing the polishing pad recycling process with respect to deepening cutting of the grooves 11. As shown in fig. 3, in the initial state, the depth of the groove 11 is h0. As shown in fig. 4, when the polishing pad 1 is worn out by the polishing work, the upper surface gradually descends, so that the overall thickness descends, and the depth of the grooves 11 descends to h1. The depth of the grooves 11 of the polishing pad 1 becomes shallow, affecting the stability of the polishing process, and possibly causing failure of the wafer loading function of the polishing head 81. In general, when the polishing pad 1 reaches the replacement node, it needs to be removed and replaced, and this embodiment provides a processing method for reusing the polishing pad 1, as shown in fig. 5. The polishing pad 1 is kept on the table 2, and the processing head 4 is moved into the groove 11 of the polishing pad 1, thereby deepening the groove 11. By the groove 11 reworking operation, the depth of the groove 11 of the polishing pad 1 is again brought to h0, and the characteristics of the polishing pad 1 are changed to become smaller in overall thickness, unchanged in thickness of the lower polishing pad 101, smaller in thickness of the upper polishing pad 102, and h0 in depth of the groove 11, as shown in fig. 6.
The movement of the table 2 mainly means circumferential rotation of the table 2 around the axis thereof. The movement of the bracket 3 mainly means that the bracket 3 rotates around the axis of the workbench 2, and the rotating part of the bracket is positioned above the workbench 2 and is close to the center of the workbench 2; alternatively, the holder 3 rotates around the axis of the table 2, but its rotating portion is radially outside the table 2. The movement of the processing head 4 mainly means that the processing head 4 translates along the support 3 in a parallel plane above the worktable 2, or that the processing head 4 rotates circumferentially above the worktable 2, or that the processing head 4 moves in another track above the worktable 2.

The working operation can be performed without removing the polishing pad 1 from the table 2.
Example 1
In this embodiment, the deepened cutting of the groove 11 by the machining head 4 is achieved by the movement of the table 2 and the movement of the machining head 4, while the support 3 remains relatively stationary.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 7, the length direction of the bracket 3 forms a horizontal slide rail 31 that is parallel to the table 2, or not completely parallel, but tends to be parallel. The processing head 4 can translate within the horizontal slide 31.
As shown in fig. 8, the machining head includes a base 41, a lifting rail 42 disposed along a height direction of the base 41, and a movable cutter head 43, where the base 41 can translate along the horizontal rail 31, so as to drive the lifting rail 42 and the movable cutter head 43 to translate horizontally in synchronization, the movable cutter head 43 can translate up and down along the lifting rail 42, and the movable cutter head 43 can cut the groove 11 by rotating itself. Specifically, the part of the cutter 431 of the movable cutter 43 may rotate, and the maximum outer diameter of the movable cutter 43 corresponds to the minimum width of the groove 11, specifically, the maximum outer diameter of the cutter 431 corresponds to the minimum width of the groove 11, so that the cutter 431 can smoothly extend into the groove 11.
In order to facilitate the placement of the movable cutter head 43 in the groove 11, the support 3 is designed to be of a structure capable of lifting up and down, so that the movable cutter head 43 is driven by the structure to lift up and down to achieve the purpose of approaching to or keeping away from the upper surface of the polishing pad 1, and the lifting structure of the support 3 can be realized in the prior art and is not repeated. In other embodiments, the movable cutter 43 may be manually inserted into the groove 11, or may be otherwise used, and is not limited to the lifting structure using the stand 3.
