Detailed Description Of The Invention
With reference to Fig. 2, it has shown photoresistance coating apparatus 100 of the present invention, comprises a photoresistance apparatus for coating 10, a cleaning device 20, a platform 30 and a manufacturing process cavity 40.Photoresistance apparatus for coating 10, cleaning device 20 and platform 30 all are located among the manufacturing process cavity 40.Substrate 1 is placed on the platform 30.When coating photoresistance 2, cleaning device 20 is removed the particulate on substrate 1 surface earlier, and then, photoresistance apparatus for coating 10 evenly is sprayed on photoresistance 2 surface of substrate 1.
With reference to Fig. 3 a, it has shown the A-A direction sectional view of cleaning device 20 among Fig. 2.Cleaning device 20 comprises 21 and two insufflation unit of a suction unit (air-breathing cavity) (air blowing cavity) 22, and insufflation unit 22 is positioned at the both sides of suction unit 21.Suction unit 21 has air entry 23, and insufflation unit 22 has inflatable mouth 24.With reference to Fig. 3 b, it has shown the upward view of cleaning device 20, and air entry 23 and inflatable mouth 24 are the slit of strip, and its width is about 1~2 millimeter.With reference to Fig. 3 c, insufflation unit 22 connects an air blowing pipeline (not shown), when cleaning, insufflation unit 22 is from suction unit 21 both sides, blow out a gas (air) towards substrate 1, so that the particulate 3 on substrate 1 surface breaks away from these substrates 1, simultaneously, suction unit 21 with pull of vacuum with among the particulate 3 inhale unit 21.Suction unit 21 connects a vacuum line (not icon), and particulate 3 enters after the suction unit 21, can discharge this photoresistance coating apparatus 100 by this vacuum line.The blow gas pressure of this insufflation unit 22 is about 12~14 kPas.The pressure of inspiration(Pi) of this suction unit 21 is about-12~-14 kPas.Do the time spent when cleaning device 20, the pressure of inspiration(Pi) of suction unit 21 can be slightly larger than the blow gas pressure of insufflation unit 22.
With reference to Fig. 3 d, it has shown the variation of cleaning device of the present invention, and its characteristics are that suction unit 21 ' is positioned at the both sides of insufflation unit 22 '.With reference to Fig. 3 e, insufflation unit 22 ' connects an air blowing pipeline (not shown), when cleaning, insufflation unit 22 ' blows out a gas (air) towards substrate 1, so that the particulate 3 on substrate 1 surface breaks away from this substrate 1, simultaneously, suction unit 21 ' is in the both sides of this insufflation unit 22 ', with pull of vacuum with among the particulate 3 inhale unit 21 '.Suction unit 21 ' connects a vacuum line (not shown), and particulate 3 enters suction unit 21 ' afterwards, can discharge this photoresistance coating apparatus 100 by this vacuum line.
Though in the present invention's embodiment, suction unit and insufflation unit are cavity body structure, air entry and inflatable mouth are the slit of strip.Yet it does not limit embodiments of the present invention, and suction unit and insufflation unit also can be pipeline structure, and air entry and inflatable mouth also can be cavernous structure.Perhaps utilize suction unit to remove particulate merely, and omit this insufflation unit.
The operational scenario of photoresistance coating apparatus 100 of the present invention below is described.With reference to Fig. 4 a, at first, among this manufacturing process cavity 40, this photoresistance apparatus for coating 10 is positioned at a primary importance, and this cleaning device 20 is positioned at a second place.Then, as shown in Fig. 4 b, this cleaning device 20 moves to this primary importance along one second direction-x from this second place, and removes the particulate on this platform 30 simultaneously.With reference to Fig. 4 c, after cleaning device 20 had cleaned this platform 30 and has been positioned at this primary importance, substrate 1 was transferred and is placed on this platform 30.Then, as shown in Fig. 4 d, this photoresistance apparatus for coating 10 and this cleaning device 20 are simultaneously towards this first direction x, move to this second place from this primary importance, at this moment, this cleaning device 20 is positioned at the place ahead of this photoresistance apparatus for coating 10, and this cleaning device 20 is removed the particulate on this substrate 1 in advance, and this photoresistance apparatus for coating 10 sprays photoresistance 2 to this substrate 1 subsequently.After the photoresistance coating is finished, remove this substrate, this cleaning device 20 rests on this second place, and this photoresistance apparatus for coating 10 is got back to this primary importance along this second direction-x from this second place, and recovers the state of Fig. 4 a.
The present invention can clean substrate before the photoresistance coating in advance, therefore can reduce the particulate of substrate surface, promoted the quality of product.In addition, the present invention cleans the platform that is used to put substrate simultaneously, with the particulate in the further removing photoresistance coating apparatus, therefore, can effectively control the particle number within the photoresistance coating apparatus.
Though the present invention discloses as above with concrete preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; any those of ordinary skills without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; still can make many changes and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion with the appended scope that claim was defined.
