Fig. 5 is the amplification sectional view of bed plate and supporting member periphery.Pair of supporting members 53A, 53B and rotating shaft 56A, 56B utilize the screw philosophy fixing rigidly, and bed plate 54A, 54B are supported with the form from up and down clamping.Between bed plate 54A, 54B and supporting member 53A, 53B, insert respectively 2 Compress Springs 62, and towards making the mutual close pressuring direction of rotating shaft 56A, 56B and bed plate 54A, 54B.And bed plate 54A, 54B make the mutually switching mechanism of parallel and can open and close towards the y direction mobile in the opposite direction of supporting member 53A, 53B.And, the adjustment of load spring 64 when rotating is being set between bed plate 54A, 54B and supporting member 53A, 53B.
The action of Fig. 5~Fig. 7 that the below utilizes expression bed plate and supporting member when utilizing described substrate breaking device fracture describes.When making substrate 40 fracture, initial, no matter crestal line 54Aa, the 54Ba of bed plate are parallel in axial which position of x with the front end of blade 23, blade 23 is adjusted into the central authorities that are positioned at this crestal line 54Aa and 54Ba.Thus, can be with the leading edge location of a pair of bed plate 54A, 54B.
Then, as shown in Figure 4, utilize tackness film 42 that substrate 40 and ring element 41 are fitted.And, make forming of substrate 40 the facing down of 43 sides of ruling, via the thin slice 44 of protection usefulness this ring element 41 is installed on the turntable shown in Figure 1 11.Then, adjust the rotary angle position of turntable 11, harmonize in the mode of the front end of substrate breaking device 23 with the scribing position of substrate 40, carry out the angle orientation of substrate 40.In the situation of having carried out in this way the location, the crestal line of the front end of the center line between bed plate 54A, the 54B and blade 23 and the line of substrate 40 are in the configuration of z direction of principal axis point-blank.
Then, towards making the direction of the interval closure of a pair of bed plate 54A, 54B that this bed plate 54A, 54B are moved.And, as shown in Figure 6, under the state that crestal line 54Aa, the 54Ba of bed plate contact fully or roughly contact, finish the location.Also have, the position of the crestal line under this state becomes center line.
Then, carry out fracture.Fracture is to utilize stepper motor 21 that lifting platform 19 is descended, and blade 23 is moved along the z direction, thereby as shown in Figure 7, utilize blade 23 to push the substrate 40 that is supported by a pair of bed plate 54A, 54B directly over line.
If blade 23 pushing substrates 40, the line of substrate 40 is disposed in the mode consistent with blade 23 so, so blade 23 is from the back side of the upper surface pushing line 43 of substrate 40.Substrate 40 pushing a pair of bed plate 54A, the 54B that are urged.
A pair of bed plate 54A, 54B all process comparatively smoothly with each face both sides substrate 40 butts, and be positioned at plane with the z perpendicular direction with height identical on the z direction.So with respect to substrate 40, bed plate 54A, 54B block pushing force from substrate 40 with the zone that has expansion planarly.In addition, if blade 23 pushing substrates 40, bed plate 54A is because of as adjustment of load spring 64 shrinks as shown in Figure 7 so, centered by the central shaft of rotating shaft 56A towards counterclockwise slightly rotating.Similarly, bed plate 54B rotates centered by the central shaft of rotating shaft 56B toward the clockwise direction slightly because of as adjustment of load spring 64 shrinks as shown in Figure 7.The angle of these rotations for example is below 1 °, to be generally about 0.1 °.Like this, when the pushing force towards substrate 40 of blade 23 becomes state above the spring constant of adjustment of load spring 64, although substrate 40 becomes the state that is subject to bending stress but still is supported with face at bed plate 54A, 54B upper surface separately.So, can apply bending stress to substrate 40, and partly apply pushing force unlike like that crestal line 54Aa, the 54Ba to bed plate 54A, 54B that utilize that in the past three-point bending fracture method observes.And, can cut off with the vertical cross section along line, and blade 23 and substrate 40 can be because of fracture the time yet trend and separate.
After the fracture of substrate 40 has been carried out in action more than utilizing, blade 23 is risen, and after making Y platform 14 distance that only width mobile and semiconductor chip is suitable under the effect of stepper motor 25, proceed identical cutting operation.
Among the present invention because bootom couch cutter shaft rotates slightly, so even if apply and in substrate, produce after the pushing force crookedly, substrate is kept as face at the bed plate upper surface, and can before cutting off substrate fully, positively keep.Even if having the semiconductor chips such as silicon substrate of crystalline splitting surface, also can harmonize and cut off in line and perpendicular to the face ground of substrate.So, can be applied in the shearing device of the various substrates with crystalline splitting surface.
Also have, adopted in the described embodiment by making blade 23 liftings come to give the formation that pushing force makes substrate 40 fractures to substrate 40, but, also can replace making blade 23 liftings, and adopt the formation make a pair of bed plate 54A, 54B lifting and to make substrate 40 fractures.
The below describes other embodiments of the present invention.Only major part is described in the following embodiments, because whole formation and Fig. 5~Fig. 7 are roughly the same, so omit detailed explanation.
