Description

喷淋装置 技术领域
本发明涉及微电子加工设备技术领域,尤其涉及一种用在液晶显示器生产过程中的喷淋装置。
背景技术
在显示技术领域,液晶显示器件(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)与有机发光二极管显示器件(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)等平板显示器件已经逐步取代阴极射线管(Cathode Ray Tube,CRT)显示器。
LCD显示器件是由一片薄膜晶体管阵列基板(Thin Film Transistor Array Substrate,TFT Array Substrate)与一片彩色滤光片(Color Filter,CF)基板贴合而成,且在TFT基板与CF基板之间灌入液晶,通过通电与否来控制液晶分子改变方向,将背光模组的光线折射出来产生画面。在TFT-LCD制造工艺中,ITO(Indium Tin Oxide,氧化铟锡)凭借其自身优良的特性,被广泛用于制作透明显示电极。在ITO透明显示电极制作过程中,首先通过磁控溅射形成ITO薄膜,再经过光刻形成光刻胶图形,最后通过湿法刻蚀将ITO薄膜图案化,形成最终的透明显示电极。
如图1所示,为现有技术用于ITO薄膜喷涂蚀刻的流程图。请参照图1,表面覆盖ITO薄膜的基板由入口单元(IN CV)进入,在清洗腔(EUV)中去除表面的有机物,而后进入刻蚀腔(ETCH)。在刻蚀腔中,通过刻蚀液将基板上不需要保留的ITO薄膜(即未被光刻胶图形覆盖的ITO薄膜)去除。而后基板被送出,经由水洗单元(SWR)进行清洗,去除基板表面残留的刻蚀液,最后经干燥并由传送单元(NT)和出口单元(OUT CV)被传送出喷淋装置。
但是,在清洗腔(EUV)、刻蚀腔(ETCH)和水洗单元(SWR)均使用固定安装的喷淋装置对基板进行喷淋,由于在清洗腔(EUV)和水洗单元(SWR)会冲洗除去杂质,在刻蚀腔(ETCH)会产生蚀刻液结晶,因此喷淋装置上的喷嘴在生产过程中会产生堵塞,或者其他原因导致喷洒偏差,从而基板喷淋不均匀,最终造成产品不良。

请参阅图5所示,所述偏心轮3设有中心孔32、多个偏心孔33和连杆34。所述中心孔32设置于所述偏心轮3的中心,所述中心轴31贯穿中心孔32并与所述偏心轮3固定连接;所述每一偏心孔33与所述中心孔32的距离各不相同,所述连杆34固定安装于所述偏心孔33上,所述摇杆5套设于所述连杆34上实现可转动连接,所述连杆34随所述偏心轮3转动带动所述摇杆5实现所述上机架1做往复运动,当连杆34选择与中心孔距离不同的不同偏心孔33安装时,可实现所述上机架1不同幅度的往复运动。
更具体的,在工作中,所述马达4带动所述偏心轮3转动,通过所述连杆34和所述连接架2带动所述上机架1做往复运动,所述连杆34选择与中心孔距离不同的偏心孔33组装后可以实现所述上机架1进行不同幅度的摆动,亦即实现所述上机架1进行往复运动,所述上机架1的中垂线摆动角度范围为30°-60°,优选30°、45°或60°。请参阅图6所示,影响所述上机架1的中垂线(图6中的虚线)摆动角度θ的大小的相关因素有:所述偏心孔33和所述中心孔32的距离R1、所述摇杆5的长度L、所述上机架1的摆动圆弧所在圆的半径大小R2。所述上机架1往复运动的摆动距离为
Figure PCTCN2019110067-appb-000001
所述上机架1往复运动的摆动距离为摆动角度θ对应的弧长,根据弧长公式可知
Figure PCTCN2019110067-appb-000002
可求出θ的角度值。
第一实施例中,所述偏心孔33优选呈一条直线设置,以便于安装和美观。这样设置多个偏心孔33可便于调整所述上机架1做往复运动的偏转角度,即所述上机架1往复运动的幅度,可使得位于所述上机架1下方的基板30除了在可接收到均匀的喷淋,从而单位时间内的受水面积增加,喷淋的速度和均匀度得到极大提升。
请参阅图2所示,在第一实施例中,所述偏心轮3和所述马达4之间还包括齿轮箱6,所述齿轮箱6的一端通过第一齿轮61与所述偏心轮3的中心轴31可转动连接,其另一端通过第二齿轮62与所述马达4可转动连接。通过调节所述第一齿轮61和所述第二齿轮62的外径可实现变速,既可加速也可用于减速。
请参阅图3到图6,在第一实施例中,所述喷淋装置10还包括下机架7,所述下机架7的上表面均匀排布多个喷嘴11;所述下机架7与所述上机架1固定连接;所述下机架7与所述上机架1同步做往复运动,对位于两者之间的基板30进行喷淋。
请参阅图3、图4所示,在第一实施例中,所述上机架1还包括多个导管12和汇总导 管15。所述导管12与所述喷嘴11的进液口一一对应连接。所述多个导管12的另一端均连接于所述上机架1上的汇总导管15,便于简化结构,仅通过给所述汇总导管15提供一定压强的喷淋液便可实现所有所述导管12的喷淋。
请参阅图4所示,在第一实施例中,所述上机架1还包括至少一辊轮13,设置于所述上机架1的表面,可实现所述上机架1相对于所述喷淋室20顶部在往复运动方向上滑动。
在第一实施例中,所述辊轮13位于所述上机架1的下表面,且分布在往复运动方向上的所述上机架1的两侧。在其他实施例中,所述辊轮13位于所述上机架1的上表面,且分布在往复运动方向上的所述上机架1的中心位置,所述辊轮13可滑动安装于所述喷淋室20顶部。
请参阅图7所示,在第二实施例中,所述上机架1还包括铰接杆14,所述铰接杆14的一端可转动设置于所述上机架1的上表面,所述铰接杆14优选位于所述上机架1的上表面的中心线处,所述中心线平行与往复运动的方向,其另一端可转动设置于所述喷淋室20顶部,可实现所述上机架1相对于所述喷淋室20顶部往复运动。
在第二实施例中,所述铰接杆14可转动设置于所述上机架1上表面的中心线处,所述中心线基本平行于往复运动的方向,即所述中心线与往复运动的方向一致。
在第一实施例和第二实施例中,所述喷嘴11喷射纯水(即去离子水)或蚀刻液。当所述喷嘴11喷射纯水时,本发明喷淋装置10可作为清洗装置使用,此时所述喷淋室20为水洗单元;当所述喷嘴11喷射蚀刻液时,本发明喷淋装置10可作为蚀刻装置使用,此时所述喷淋室20为刻蚀腔。
本发明的有益效果在于,提供一种喷淋装置,通过带动喷淋机架进行往复运动喷淋,可实现喷淋机架进行30°-60°不同幅度的摆动,可有效避免因个别喷嘴堵塞造成对基板喷淋不均匀现象,从而保证基板喷淋均匀,减少喷淋偏差,使得基板喷淋均匀,提高生产效率和产品质量。
以上所述仅是本发明的优选实施方式,应当指出,对于本技术领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明原理的前提下,还可以做出若干改进和润饰,这些改进和润饰也应视为本发明的保护范围。
