However, if the display device is moved in a high-definition direction, it may be caused by granulation due to the guide member. Since film defects and the like are more prominent, various non-contact type guide members have been proposed in order to prevent this. Fig. 5 shows an example of such a transfer device. Fig. 5 (a) is a schematic cross-sectional view of the inside of the vacuum chamber 10 viewed in the conveying direction. Inside the vacuum chamber 10, a bearing 12 for supporting a substrate holder (substrate holder) 2 3 for guiding and holding a glass substrate is installed along the conveying path, and the upper part of the substrate holder is guided in a non-contact manner. U-shaped guide member 1 5. Through the driving device 16, the bearing rotates, and the substrate holder 2 3 moves vertically on the bearing 12. The U-shaped guide member 15 is provided so as to surround the upper part of the substrate bracket. As shown in the enlarged view of a part of FIG. 5 (b), 5 312XP / Invention Manual (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869 200533582 has two magnets 1 6 a, 1 6 b. On the other hand, in order to repel the two magnets 16a and 16b, a magnet 26 is mounted on the substrate holder 23. By the repulsive force of the magnets 16a, 16b and the magnet 26, the upper part of the substrate holder is positioned at U at any time. The center of the font guide member 15 guides the substrate holder. By adopting such a non-contact structure of the guide mechanism, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of granulation above the substrate and to stably transport the substrate holder. Similarly, as a guide mechanism using a magnet, a conveying device constituted by providing a magnet of a substrate holder and magnets on both sides of the substrate holder to each other is disclosed.

但當基板大型化,且伴隨該情況,基板托架的重量增加 時,則由在圖5所示之習知之搬送裝置(日本專利特開平 1 0 — 1 2 0 1 7 1號公報)可知,基板托架上部搖動/振動變大, 一旦產生振動,則不易停止而長期持續。又,亦知道該振 動除會損壞轴承,縮短其壽命之外,並且使軸承部的粒化 發生量增加,將真空室污染。因此,為了抑制粒化的發生, 而必須降低基板托架的搬送速度,結果不得不犧牲通量 (throughput)。 又,在採用利用磁鐵吸引力之導引機構的搬送裝置(曰 本專利實公平7 _ 4 3 5號文獻)中,也有相同問題。在此情 況下,進而具有當基板托架傾斜至某種程度以上,則有基 6 312XP/發明說明書(補件)/94-05/94102869 200533582 板托架的磁鐵和導引構件中一邊的磁鐵吸引之情形,如果 設置用於防止該情形的構件’則有因該構件與基板托架之 碰撞,而產生灰塵的問題。 在此情況下,本發明之目的在於提供一種基板搬送裝 置,係可高速搬送大型基板的搬送裝置,其可抑制基板托 架的搖動,進而抑制灰塵的產生,不污染環境,且可穩定 地高速搬送。 (解決問題之手段)However, when the substrate becomes larger and the weight of the substrate holder increases with this situation, it can be known from the conventional conveying device shown in FIG. 5 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10—12 0 1 71). The vibration / vibration of the upper part of the substrate holder becomes large, and once vibration occurs, it is difficult to stop and continues for a long time. It is also known that in addition to damaging the bearing and shortening its life, the vibration increases the amount of granulation in the bearing portion and contaminates the vacuum chamber. Therefore, in order to suppress the occurrence of granulation, it is necessary to reduce the conveyance speed of the substrate holder, and as a result, the throughput has to be sacrificed. In addition, a conveying device using a guide mechanism that utilizes the attraction force of a magnet (Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 7_435) has the same problem. In this case, when the substrate holder is tilted to a certain degree or more, there is a base 6 312XP / Invention Specification (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869 200533582 and a magnet on one side of the guide member. In the case of attraction, if a member for preventing such a situation is provided, there is a problem that dust is generated due to the collision between the member and the substrate holder. In this case, an object of the present invention is to provide a substrate conveying device, which is a conveying device capable of conveying large substrates at high speed, which can suppress the shaking of the substrate holder, thereby suppressing the generation of dust, does not pollute the environment, and can stably high speed Transport. (Means for solving problems)

The first magnet row is one or more magnets installed in the upper part of the carrier in the conveying direction. The second magnet row is Above or below the first magnet row, one or more magnets fixed to the vacuum chamber are installed along the conveying path and spaced at a specified interval. Another feature is that the first magnet row and the second magnet row are arranged in a plurality of rows in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction in a manner that the magnetization directions are opposite between adjacent magnet rows. As described above, the first magnet bar mounted on the carrier and the second magnet bar fixed to the vacuum chamber are installed in such a manner as to attract each other up and down, thereby achieving more stable carrier transfer. 7 312XP / Invention Specification (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869

Between the first and second magnet rows, a repulsive force acts. This result is that even if a force is applied in the vertical direction, the repulsive force between the opposing magnet rows that attracts the oblique magnet rows still has a multiplicative effect, and the deviation from the transport path can be prevented. . In addition, even if the substrate bracket is deviated due to a force applied for some reason, and shaking / vibration occurs, the movement / vibration can be ended in a short time, and the generation of granulated particles can be suppressed as much as possible. 4 The two substrate brackets are used to set a stable self-supporting structure on the feeder in a symmetrical manner, so that the conveying stability is further improved. The second magnet row fixed in the vacuum chamber is further provided to the first magnet row of the feeder. Above is better. Through the above structure, the magnetic force can act as the direction of the carrier and reduce the load on the bearing that supports the weight of the carrier. In addition to extending the life of the bearing, it can also suppress the occurrence of granulation. In addition, the present invention is characterized in that the plurality of magnets in the first magnet row and / or the second magnet row are mounted at intervals. The present invention is characterized in that the substrate holder has an opening for heating the substrate from the opposite side of the processing. In addition, it is preferable that the above designation is 0.5 to 3 ° with respect to the vertical direction. By mounting the substrate holder at an angle within this range, the stability can be further improved. In addition, if the angle is 0.5 ° or more, the accident of moving the substrate or flying out of the substrate holder can be eliminated, and 312XP / Invention Manual (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869 can be alternated for entering from the inner side. The first and second conveying forces and effectiveness are relatively large. It is included in the vibration line that can be transported from the angle of the ferrite surface plus 8 200533582 heat treatment, etc., and when the opening is installed in the substrate holder, the substrate itself can be prevented from deflection by making the angle below 3 °. On the other hand, it is possible to perform a film forming process with high uniformity. Particularly suitable for square substrates with sides longer than 1 m. The present invention is characterized in that the above-mentioned carrier is a carrier mounted in such a way that the two substrate trays face each other, so that the resistance of the magnet on the upper part of the carrier relative to the force perpendicular to the conveying direction is divided by The first magnet bar and the second magnet bar are provided in such a manner that the length of the substrate holder in the conveying direction is 5.9 to 102. 9 N / m. With the above magnet setting, substrates of various sizes can be stably transported without shaking or the like. (Inventive effect)

如上所述,根據本發明,則可在抑制基板托架的搖動/ 振動的同時,進行高速的搬送。因此,可在不降低通量的 情況下,應對基板尺寸的增加。另外,抑制基板托架的搖 動或振動,且即使在產生該搖動/振動的情況下,由於馬上 衰減,故可抑制粒化的發生。結果係可適用於更高精細度 之顯示裝置之製造。又,由於將載送器作成將兩個基板托 架連接的自立構造,故搬送穩定性可進一步提高,另外, 可同時處理兩個基板,使生產性也進一步提高。 【實施方式】 以下,透過實施例,對本發明的基板搬送裝置進行更加 詳細之說明。 [實施例1 ] 圖1為表示本發明的具有基板搬送裝置的真空處理裝置 9 312XP/發明說明書(補件)/94·05/94102869As described above, according to the present invention, high-speed conveyance can be performed while suppressing shaking and vibration of the substrate holder. Therefore, it is possible to cope with an increase in the size of the substrate without reducing the throughput. In addition, it is possible to suppress the shaking or vibration of the substrate holder, and even if the shaking / vibration occurs, it is immediately attenuated, so that the occurrence of granulation can be suppressed. As a result, it is applicable to the manufacture of higher-definition display devices. In addition, since the carrier has a self-supporting structure that connects two substrate holders, the conveying stability can be further improved, and two substrates can be processed at the same time, thereby further improving the productivity. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, the substrate transfer apparatus of the present invention will be described in more detail through examples.

The substrate holder 23 is tilted 2 °, and two pieces of glass 1.3 (carrying direction) X 1.1 m (thickness 0.5 mm) are mounted on the carrier 20 connected by the connecting member 21. Substrate 3 0. At this time, the overall weight of the carrier is about 200 kg. Since it is a symmetrical and independent structure with respect to the conveying path, it is stably supported by the bearing.

將該載送器搬送到加熱室10,利用燈加熱器,將玻璃基 板3 0力口熱到2 5 0 °C 。然後,打開門閥4 0,搬送到成膜室 1 (Γ,進行排氣直至1 〇 _5 p a後,利用沸騰加熱器,將玻璃 基板保持在指定溫度’同時導入氣體’對革巴材施加南頻電 力,進行指定時間之濺鍍。在成膜後,將載送器搬送到非 裝載室(未圖示),回收處理基板,結束處理。反覆進行該 步驟,藉此可連續地對多塊基板進行成膜處理。 另外,雖未圖示,在基板托架之下端部,沿搬送方向形 成有直線齒輪,與其咬合之驅動齒輪設置於真空室,透過 驅動齒輪的旋轉,使載送器移動。作為搬送機構,除了此 類齒條齒輪型以外,還可適合採用例如曰本專利特開2 0 0 2 一 8 2 2 6號公報所揭示之磁式偶合型者。 在本實施例中,採用多個肥粒鐵系磁鐵片(2 0 X 1 5 X 4 0 m m ),以形成第一和第二磁鐵排。亦即,作為第二磁鐵排’ 係以5mm的間距隔開,磁化方向相互相反的方式設置兩個 磁鐵片,使其連續橫跨真空室的長度地安裝於支撐體1 3 上。另一方面,作為第一磁鐵排,係同樣地以5mm的間距, 設置兩個上述磁鐵片,沿搬送方向,依各種間距安裝之。 12 312XP/發明說明書(補件)/94-05/94102869 200533582 如上述般,改變各種載送器2 0上的磁鐵片之搬送方向 的間距,調整上述磁鐵間之吸引力及排斥力,進行5 0 0 m in / 秒的高速搬送實驗。結果係若作成相對於垂直在載送器上 部之搬送方向之方向的力F (參照圖1 ( b ))之阻力在1 Ο N以 上的磁鐵構造,則搖動、振動幾乎沒有,可穩定搬送。此 處,阻力係指在連接構件2 1上設置鉤,利用彈簧秤,沿垂 直搬送方向之方向平行地拉伸,顯示第一和第二磁鐵排偏 離0.5mm時之彈簧枰之表示值。The carrier was transported to the heating chamber 10, and the glass substrate was heated at a force of 30 to 250 ° C by a lamp heater. Then, open the gate valve 40 and transfer it to the film forming chamber 1 (Γ, exhaust it to 1 〇_5 pa, and then use a boiling heater to keep the glass substrate at a specified temperature while simultaneously introducing gas. High-frequency power, and perform sputtering for a specified time. After film formation, the carrier is transported to a non-loading chamber (not shown), the processing substrate is recovered, and the process is terminated. This step is repeated, so that multiple pieces can be continuously processed. The substrate is formed into a film. Although not shown, a linear gear is formed in the conveying direction at the lower end of the substrate holder, and a driving gear that is engaged with the linear gear is installed in the vacuum chamber. The carrier is moved by the rotation of the driving gear. As the conveying mechanism, in addition to this rack-and-pinion type, a magnetic coupling type disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 002-2 8 2 6 can be suitably used. In this embodiment, A plurality of ferrous iron-based magnet pieces (2 0 X 1 5 X 4 0 mm) are used to form a first and a second magnet row. That is, as a second magnet row, they are spaced at a pitch of 5 mm and the magnetization direction Set two in opposite ways The magnet pieces are mounted on the support body 1 3 continuously across the length of the vacuum chamber. On the other hand, as the first magnet row, two of the above-mentioned magnet pieces are also provided at a pitch of 5 mm, along the conveying direction, Install it at various pitches. 12 312XP / Invention Manual (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869 200533582 As mentioned above, change the spacing in the transport direction of the magnet pieces on various carriers 20, and adjust the attraction between the magnets. And repulsive force, a high-speed conveying experiment of 500 m in / sec was performed. The result is that if the force F (refer to FIG. 1 (b)) with respect to the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction on the upper part of the carrier is made to be 10 With a magnet structure of N or more, there is almost no shaking or vibration, and stable transportation is possible. Here, resistance means that a hook is provided on the connecting member 21, and a spring scale is used to stretch in parallel in the direction of the vertical conveying direction. The value of spring 枰 when the second magnet row deviates from 0.5 mm.

接著,對使用於更大型基板之處理的載送器,亦進行相 同實驗,求出搖動、振動幾乎沒有,且可穩定搬送之磁鐵 阻力。另外,基板托架的厚度均為1 5 m m。其結果與上述例 子一併整理在表1。 [表1 ] 基板(m) 1. 0x1 . 3 1. 3x1 . 5 1. 8x2. 2 基板托架(m ) 1.7x1.63 1.8x1.83 2.4x2.53 磁鐵阻力(N ) 1 0〜1 75 1 卜 185 14〜247 磁鐵阻力/托 架長度(N/m) 5. 9〜102. 9 5. 8〜102. 9 5. 8〜102· 9 由表1所示可知,用以確保穩定搬送之磁鐵阻力係隨著 基板托架尺寸而增加,將其除以搬送方向的托架長度而得 之值為在幾乎相同的範圍。因此,無論基板托架之大小, 以(磁鐵阻力/托架長度)在5.9〜102.9N/m之方式,選擇磁 鐵構造,藉此可穩定搬送各種尺寸的基板。 又,其結果係不必連續設置第一和第二磁鐵排,可大幅 削減磁鐵成本。另外,此處之上限值(1 0 2 · 9 N / m )為沒有間 隙地,在載送器的全長範圍内設置S m — C 〇系稀土類磁鐵時 13 312XP/發明說明書(補件)/94-05/94102S69 200533582 之值。 另一方面,如果連續使用載送器,則根據情況,而有磁 鐵溫度上升到3 0 0〜3 5 0 °C之情況。磁鐵的磁力係因伴隨溫 度的上升而下降,故磁鐵的構造、設置必須以估計該降低 量的方式進行設計。例如,為了使上述阻力在3 5 0 °C下為 1 0 N,則必須要求室溫(2 0 °C )的阻力為6 0 N之磁鐵構造、設 置。 又,若磁鐵溫度上升,則有透過從磁鐵排出的氣體,對 ® 成膜空間污染,而無法獲得所需膜質之情況。於是,為了 排除來自磁鐵所排出氣體之影響,磁鐵以密封收容於非磁 性金屬材料(例如,S U S 3 0 4 )之容器内,將其安裝於真空室 内及載送器為佳。 [實施例2 ] 以下,參照圖2,說明本發明的第2實施例。Next, the same experiment was performed on the carrier used for processing of larger substrates, and the resistance of the magnet which can be stably conveyed with almost no shaking and vibration was obtained. In addition, the thicknesses of the substrate holders were all 15 mm. The results are shown in Table 1 together with the above examples. [Table 1] Substrate (m) 1. 0x1. 3 1. 3x1. 5 1. 8x2. 2 Substrate bracket (m) 1.7x1.63 1.8x1.83 2.4x2.53 Magnet resistance (N) 1 0 ~ 1 75 1 185 185 14 ~ 247 Magnet resistance / length of bracket (N / m) 5. 9 ~ 102. 9 5. 8 ~ 102. 9 5. 8 ~ 102 · 9 As shown in Table 1, it is used to ensure stability The resistance of the conveyed magnet increases with the size of the substrate holder, and the value obtained by dividing it by the length of the holder in the conveying direction is in almost the same range. Therefore, regardless of the size of the substrate holder, the magnet structure is selected so that (magnet resistance / bracket length) is 5.9 to 102.9 N / m, so that substrates of various sizes can be stably transported. As a result, it is not necessary to provide the first and second magnet rows in succession, and the cost of the magnet can be significantly reduced. In addition, the upper limit (10.2 · 9 N / m) here is when there is no gap, and the S m — C 〇 rare earth magnet is installed over the entire length of the carrier 13 312XP / Invention Specification (Supplementary Document) ) / 94-05 / 94102S69 200533582. On the other hand, if the carrier is continuously used, the temperature of the magnet may increase to 300 to 350 ° C depending on the situation. The magnetic force of the magnet decreases with the increase in temperature. Therefore, the structure and installation of the magnet must be designed to estimate the amount of reduction. For example, in order for the above resistance to be 10 N at 350 ° C, a magnet structure and setting of resistance of 60 N at room temperature (20 ° C) must be required. In addition, if the temperature of the magnet rises, the gas emitted from the magnet may pollute the ® film-forming space, and the desired film quality may not be obtained. Therefore, in order to eliminate the influence of the gas discharged from the magnet, the magnet is sealedly stored in a container of a non-magnetic metal material (for example, SU S 3 0 4), and it is better to install it in a vacuum chamber and a carrier. [Embodiment 2] Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 2.

In this case, it is possible to perform more stable carrier conveyance. That is, by increasing the number of magnet rows, the resistance to the force (F) in the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction and the restoring force of the deviation situation are further increased, and the conveying stability is improved. [Embodiment 3] Fig. 4 shows a third embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 4 is a schematic view of the inside of the vacuum chamber when viewed in the direction of the carrier. In this embodiment, the support body 13 is provided on the top plate of the vacuum chamber 10, and 14 312XP / Invention Specification (Supplement) / 94-05 / 94102869 200533582 On the lower end surface, a plurality of rows of second magnet bars are installed. , And a plurality of rows of first magnet rows are mounted on the upper end surface of the carrier connection member 21. Other than that, it is the same as those of Examples 1 and 2. That is, the magnetization directions of the magnet rows are all vertical, and the adjacent magnet rows are opposite. In addition, the magnets are arranged between the supporting magnets 13 and the magnet bars facing each other to connect the members 21, and the magnets are attracted to each other, and a repulsive force is applied between the adjacent magnets.
