Vertical batch type wafer cleaning apparatus

Abstract

The present invention provides a vertical batch type wafer cleaning apparatus comprising a wafer bearing apparatus in a cleaning tank. The wafer bearing apparatus comprises three parallel upstanding racks and a plurality of wafer shelves arranged up and down between the three racks. Three deflections are uniformly formed at edge of each of the wafer shelves. The three racks have two cover bodies at two ends thereof to connect two rotators. The wafer bearing apparatus is driven to rotate by synchronous rotation of the two rotators. A flow distributor is provided in the cleaning tank to connect an output pipe of the cleaning solution supply tank so that cleaning solution can be distributed and transferred to between the wafer shelves. Two filter pipes are provided between the cleaning tank and the cleaning solution supply tank to let cleaning solution be used in recirculating way. The present invention has advantages of enhanced cleaning efficiency and reduced cost.
