Figures 6 to 8 are views showing an example of a unit for a production line, with Figure 6 being a sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and Figure 7
The figure is an enlarged view of the main part, and FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing the external appearance. In FIG. 6, the production line equipment 5 is arranged facing each other, and two lines form one set. A gate-shaped frame is assembled with the pillars 34 and the cross beams 35, and a second side plate 36 and a top plate 37 on both sides are attached to this to form a cover that covers the production line section, and is surrounded by this cover and the floor surface on which it is installed. A second zone 16 in which manufacturing line equipment 5 is installed and a first zone 17 through which workers pass are provided in parallel to the second side plate 36 in the clean room. 101 and 102 are a working clean air outlet and a passage part clean air outlet, respectively. Clean air outlet 101 and top plate 37 for working area
Air blowers 40, 41, air chambers 42, 43, high performance filters 44, 45, and work area lighting 46, which constitute the second air purifying means 73a, are installed between the
is housed, and a lattice-shaped work section light diffusion plate 38 is installed below the illumination light 46. These equipments are suspended and supported from the cross beam 35 via support members (not shown). 47 is an air intake port, 48 is a prefilter, and 49 is a decorative plate for partitioning between the clean air outlet 101 for the working section and the clean air outlet 102 for the passage section. An air passage 50 is provided between the clean air outlet 102 for the passage and the top plate 37, and a passage illumination lamp 51 is housed therein, and a lattice-shaped passage diffusion plate 39 is installed below it. The height of the air outlet in the passage section 17 is set high enough for workers to stand and pass through, and the height of the air outlet in the working section 16 is set low as long as it does not hinder work (for example, the height of the air outlet in the passage section Mouth height 2200mm, working part air outlet height
1800mm). This is because the lower the height of the air outlet in the working part, the less turbulence in the airflow in the working part space and the better the cleanliness maintenance performance.
