Wafer grinding device

1. A wafer grinding device comprising:

a chuck table configured to load a wafer thereon, to suction the wafer thereon, and to enable the suctioned wafer to be rotated in a predetermined speed;

a spindle spaced from and above the chuck table at a predetermined distance, wherein the spindle is configured to descend and grind the suctioned wafer on the chuck table, wherein the spindle comprises a grinding wheel disposed coupled to the driver unit to grind the wafer by a predetermined thickness, wherein the grinding wheel includes a grinding body, and grinding teeth arranged along and on a bottom outer periphery of the grinding body, wherein the grinding teeth are segmented

a cooling unit configured to dispense a cooling liquid or gas to the grinding teeth passing therethrough; and

a drying unit configured to dispense a drying air to the grinding teeth passing beyond the cooling unit;

wherein the cooling unit comprises:

a body formed in a circular arc shape having a center of the grinding wheel as a center thereof and having a curvature substantially equal to a curvature of the grinding wheel; and

a groove formed in the body to allow the grinding teeth to pass therethrough,

wherein an inner bottom face of the body has a plurality of first dispensing holes formed therein, wherein the first dispensing holes are configured to dispense the cooling liquid or gas to outer bottom faces of the grinding teeth, and

wherein an inner side face of the body has a plurality of second dispensing holes formed therein, wherein the second dispensing holes are configured to dispense the cooling liquid or gas to outer side faces of the grinding teeth,

wherein the cooling unit and the drying unit are located continuously along a region between a departure point of the grinding teeth from the wafer and a re-encounter point of the grinding teeth with the wafer during rotation of the grinding wheel,

wherein the drying unit is disposed at a higher position than the grinding teeth and positioned on an outer circumferential side of the grinding teeth and formed in a circular arc shape having a center of the grinding wheel as a center thereof and having a radius of curvature larger than a radius of curvature of the cooling unit, having a plurality of through-holes formed on the drying unit's inner circumference to dispense a drying air to the grinding teeth.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the descended grinding teeth are partially inserted into the groove, wherein the body is spaced from outer side and bottom faces of the grinding teeth inserted in the groove at a predetermined distance.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the first and second dispensing holes have predetermined sizes along an extension of the groove, wherein the first dispensing holes are spaced from each other at a first predetermined distance, and the second dispensing holes are spaced from each other at a second predetermined distance.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the drying unit is spaced from the grinding wheel at a predetermined distance, wherein each through-hole of the drying unit is directed toward the center of the grinding wheel, wherein each through-hole is configured to dispense a drying air to the grinding teeth passing beyond the cooling unit.

5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the device further includes a grinding water supply tube in the spindle, wherein the grinding water supply tube is configured to allow the grinding water to be supplied to a contact location between the grinding wheel and wafer, wherein the cooling liquid temperature is substantially equal to the grinding water temperature.
