请参考图1至图3,本申请实施例提供了一种晶圆载具的夹取装置,晶圆是指制作硅半导体电路所用的硅晶片,其原始材料是硅。高纯度的多晶硅溶解后掺入硅晶体晶种,然后慢慢拉出,形成圆柱形的单晶硅,硅晶棒在经过研磨,抛光,切片后,形成硅晶圆片,也就是晶圆。在晶圆加工过程中,晶圆往往需要通过载具实现夹持运输,其中,夹持组件3用于固定夹持晶圆载具,机械臂1用于运输晶圆载具。
夹取装置包括机械臂1、平面精准定位件2和夹持组件3,平面精准定位件2连接于机械臂1与夹持组件3之间,机械臂1带动夹持组件3空间移动。
平面精准定位件2包括传动架21、主动轮22、从动轮23和传送带24,传动架21与所机械臂1连接设置,主动轮22和从动轮23可转动地连接于传动架21,传送带24连接主动轮22和从动轮23。
夹持组件3包括夹持架31、两个夹持件32和驱动组件33,夹持架31沿第一方向A延伸且固定于从动轮23设置,两个夹持件32在第一方向A上相对设置且可滑动地连接于夹持架31,驱动组件33设置于夹持架31且驱动两个夹持件32靠近或远离。
本申请实施例提供的夹持架31用于安装夹持件32和驱动组件33,驱动组件33位于夹持架31内部并负责驱动夹持件32移动,夹持件32位于夹持架31的下方并且至少部分伸出夹持架31,两个夹持件32沿夹持架31的延伸方向相对设置,当需要对晶圆进行搬运时,驱动组件33控制两个夹持件32相对靠近并夹持晶圆载具,机械臂1用于带动夹持组件3和晶圆载 具移动至特定位置,然后驱动组件33控制两个夹持件32相对远离从而松开晶圆载具,晶圆到达特定工位并进行下一步加工。在一些可选实施例中,机械臂1可以带动夹持组件3在空间范围内多方位平移,例如在图1的空间直角坐标系中,机械臂1可以带动夹持组件3在XYZ三个方向中的任意两个方向平移,也可以做到同时满足三个方向移动的需要,对于机械臂1的可移动方向根据实际使用情况决定,本申请对此不进行限定。
平面精准定位件2包括传动架21、主动轮22、从动轮23和传送带24,传动架21与机械臂1相连接,主动轮22和从动轮23均位于传动架21内并与传动架21转动连接,传送带24套设在主动轮22和从动轮23上,起到传递运动的作用。在一些可选实施例中,主动轮22和从动轮23为齿轮,传送带24上对应设置有相应齿条,进而保证传动可靠性。
本申请实施例提供的一种晶圆载具的夹取装置,根据晶圆载具的实际位置情况的不同,主动轮22在外力的作用下进行转动,并通过传送带24带动从动轮23一起转动,夹持架31随从动轮23一起同步运动,带动两个夹持件32同时转动特定角度,从而满足夹持需要。本实施例中的机械臂1借助平面精准定位件2带动夹持组件3在空间范围内移动,而夹持组件3可相对平面精准定位件2任意偏转,从而实现多角度灵活夹持,满足实际夹取运输需要。
在一些其他实施例中,驱动组件33包括驱动件331和第一滑动连接件332,驱动件331驱动第一滑动连接件332滑动,两个夹持件32通过第一滑动连接件332与夹持架31可滑动地连接;第一滑动连接件332包括相互配合使用的第一滑动件3321和第一导轨3322,第一滑动件3321和第一导轨3322中的一者与夹持件32连接,另一者与夹持架31或驱动件331连接。
驱动件331通过螺栓等方式固定安装在夹持架31内部,第一导轨3322与第一滑动件3321滑动连接以带动夹持件32运动。第一导轨3322可以安装于驱动件331靠近夹持件32的一侧,也可以安装于夹持架31靠近夹持件32的一端,并且第一导轨3322既可以为滑槽结构,也可以为条状凸起结构等,本申请对此均不作限定。并且第一导轨3322的数量可以为一条或两条,当只有一条第一导轨3322时,两个第一滑动件3321位于同一条第 一导轨3322上。当第一导轨3322为两条时,两条第一导轨3322并排设置,两个第一滑动件3321位于不同的第一导轨3322上。
在一些可选实施例中,请参阅图3和图4,第一滑动连接件332包括相互平行的两个第一导轨3322和与两个第一导轨3322对应的两个第一滑动件3321,第一导轨3322沿第一方向A延伸设置于驱动件331,一个夹持件32对应固定连接于一个第一滑动件3321,两个夹持件32相互靠近或远离,以夹持或释放晶圆载具。第一导轨3322为两条相互平行且沿第一方向A延伸的滑槽结构,第一导轨3322位于驱动件331靠近夹持件32的一侧,两个第一滑动件3321分别与两条第一导轨3322滑动连接,且分别与两个夹持件32固定连接,驱动件331通过第一滑动件3321带动夹持件32相互靠近或者远离。
在一些可选实施例中,驱动件331可以为伺服电机与斜齿轮的组合,两个第一滑动件3321的相对表面上均设有与斜齿轮相匹配的齿条,伺服电机工作驱动斜齿轮运动,斜齿轮与第一滑动件3321上的齿条啮合传动,从而带动两个第一滑动件3321分别在第一导轨3322上沿相反方向运动。两个第一滑动件3321分别与不同夹持件32相连接,第一滑动件3321与夹持件32之间的连接方式可以为螺栓连接,驱动件331通过带动第一滑动件3321移动从而使得两个夹持件32相互靠近或者远离,实现对晶圆载具的夹取放置。
在一些其他实施例中,夹持件32包括本体部321、第一夹持部322和第二夹持部323,第一夹持部322和第二夹持部323在第一方向A上位于本体部321的同一侧且在夹持架31的厚度方向上相互间隔预设距离设置,以形成夹持晶圆载具边沿的夹持空间324。
第一夹持部322与第二夹持部323分别与本体部321固定连接,第一夹持部322和第二夹持部323在第一方向A上位于本体部321的同一侧,在一些可选实施例中,第一夹持部322与第二夹持部323相互平行,并且均与本体部321垂直设置,第一夹持部322可以与本体部321一体成型,第二夹持部323也可以与本体部321一体成型。第一夹持部322、第二夹持部323及本体部321半包围形成夹持空间324,夹持空间324的尺寸形状由 相对应的晶圆载具决定,并且根据晶圆载具的形状不同,两个夹持件32上的两个夹持空间324可以分别位于各自本体部321在第一方向A上的同一侧,也可以位于异侧。在一些可选实施例中,请参考图4,两个夹持件32上的两个夹持空间324可以分别位于各自本体部321在第一方向A上的不同侧,并且两个夹持空间324相对设置。
在一些其他实施例中,夹持组件3还包括第一探测装置325,第一探测装置325设置于夹持空间324内,用于判断晶圆载具的边沿是否位于预设范围内。夹持空间324除了用于夹持晶圆载具外还可以安装第一探测装置325,第一探测装置325用于判断晶圆载具是否位于特定距离内,第一探测装置325可以为槽形光电,槽形光电嵌入安装在夹持件32的夹持空间324内,不会对夹持组件3的夹取效果产生影响。当夹取装置工作时,机械臂1带动夹持件32移动至与载具平齐位置,若两侧夹持件32中的槽形光电感应到载具上方的边沿,则驱动组件33带动两个夹持件32相互靠近夹取载具。若槽形光电此时未感应到载具,则需要通过机械臂1或平面精准定位件2工作改变夹持件32的高度位置或角度位置,直至载具处于槽型光电的探测范围内,然后夹持件32移动夹取载具。晶圆移动至特定位置后,驱动组件33控制两个夹持件32远离松开载具,机械臂1带动夹持件32移动,此时槽型光电无法侦测到载具存在。
在一些其他实施例中,驱动组件33还包括第二滑动连接件333,第二滑动连接件333包括相互配合使用的第二滑动件3331和第二导轨3332。第二滑动件3331与夹持件32连接,第二导轨3332与夹持架31或驱动件331连接,第二导轨3332沿第一方向A延伸,以限制夹持件32的移动轨迹。
请参考图4,第二导轨3332可以为设置在驱动件331外周侧的滑槽,也可以为条状凸起等,本申请对此不作限定,只要满足第二滑动件3331与第二导轨3332之间可相对滑动,并且第二导轨3332的延伸方向与第一导轨3322的延伸方向平行即可。驱动件331带动两个夹持件32相互靠近或远离时,夹持件32带动第二滑动件3331沿第二导轨3332上相对滑动,在这个过程中第二导轨3332起到辅助导轨的作用,用于对夹持件32的移动方向起到限位作用,提高夹持件32运动的可靠性。
在一些其他实施例中,请参考图5,夹持组件3还包括导电滑环34,导电滑环34设置于夹持架31靠近平面精准定位件2的一侧并与驱动件331电连接,以将外部数据传递至驱动件331。
夹持架31与从动轮23相连接并实现同步运动,导电滑环34设置在传动架21与夹持架31之间。夹取装置工作时,夹持架31会相对传动架21发生转动,驱动件331则需要与外界设备连接实现控制,若采用常规电缆连接方式,在使用过程中电缆容易出现弯折等问题,无法实现任意角度的旋转,在本实施例中,通过在夹持架31上方设置的导电滑环34可以实现任意角度的旋转,并且增强夹取装置整体可靠性。
导电滑环34属于电接触滑动连接应用范畴,是实现两个相对转动机构的图像、数据信号及动力传递的精密输电装置,适用于任意连续旋转。导电滑环34主要由旋转和静止两大部分组成,旋转部分位于圆心部位并随夹持架31一起转动,静止部分位于旋转部分的外周侧并与传动架21固定连接,静止部分通过导线与外接设备电连接。夹取装置工作过程中,导电滑环34的旋转部分相对静止部分发生旋转,静止部分与旋转部分之间通过连接触电实现数据传输,从而实现固定位置到旋转位置传送功率或数据的效果。
在本实施例中,导电滑环34靠近传动架21的一侧依次层叠设置有导电滑环上绝缘片和导电滑环上密封盖,靠近夹持架31的一侧依次层叠设置有导电滑环下绝缘片和导电滑环下密封盖。
在一些其他实施例中,传动架21上设置有连接组件25,机械臂1通过连接组件25与传动架21连接。请参阅图5,连接组件25位于传动架21的上方即远离夹持架31的一侧,连接组件25包括机械臂连接件251和机械臂连接加强件252,机械臂连接件251与机械臂连接加强件252上均设置有连接孔,机械臂1与通过螺栓等方式与机械臂连接件251、机械臂连接加强件252相连接。
在一些其他实施例中,机械臂1包括转轴驱动件,转轴驱动件驱动主动轮22转动。转轴驱动件(图中未示出)位于机械臂1内部,在一些可选实施例中,转轴驱动件为机械臂1关节,机械臂1关节旋转时通过带动主 动轮22传递旋转动力使得夹持组件3旋转。
在一些其他实施例中,请参阅图6,夹取装置还包括第二探测装置26,第二探测装置26设置于传动架21的外部,用于探测平面精准定位件2所处的位置信息。第二探测装置26设置在传动架21的外周侧,本申请对第二探测装置26的具体位置不作限定。第二探测装置26用于探测货架或工位的位置信息,当第二探测装置26的探测范围内出现相应的货架或工位,第二探测装置26将位置信息传递至外部控制系统,控制系统控制机械臂1运动并将晶圆载具放置到目的地。
本实施例中的所有设备均通过电动方式实现控制,夹取装置整体实现模块化设计,具有体积小和噪音小等优点,并且装置内部不存在硬摩擦,因此不易产生颗粒物,可以满足晶圆加工所需的环境要求。
在一些其他实施例中,请参阅图6,传动架21内设有张紧轮211,张紧轮211与传送带24配合设置。张紧轮211设置在传动架21内部,传送带24包括弯曲部和平铺部,弯曲部套设在主动轮22和从动轮23上,张紧轮211与传送带24平铺部对应设置,以保证传送带24时刻保持张紧状态。在一些可选实施例中,传动架21内部还设有张紧传感器212,张紧传感器212与传送带24平铺部对应设置,用于检测传送带24的张紧程度,张紧传感器212与张紧轮211配合使用确保传动可靠。
由此,本申请实施例提供了一种晶圆载具的夹取装置,包括机械臂、夹持组件和平面精准定位件,夹持组件用于夹持晶圆载具,并通过机械臂移动至特定工位处。在夹取过程中,平面精准定位件会根据晶圆载具在工位上的放置角度的不同,调节夹持组件相对机械臂的偏转角度,进而改变对晶圆载具的夹持角度,满足不同情况下的使用要求,可靠性高,灵活性强。另外,夹取装置整体实现模块化和电动化设计,具有体积小和噪音小等优点,可以满足晶圆加工所需的环境要求。
