Abstract

In a substrate lifting and transferring device, a first bearing switch member of a first holder for bearing switch use is set at one side of a first substrate processing device towards the periphery of a horizontal axle center in a swing manner. A second bearing switch member of a second holder for bearing switch use is set at one side of a second substrate processing device towards the periphery of a horizontal axle center in a swing manner. An annular (endless) shaped member extended from the standing supporting frame in a vertical direction at one side of the first bearing switch member is set in a manner of circulative movement. A plurality of holders arranged in an interval for ascending and descending uses are set on the circular direction of annular shaped member. Based on this substrate lifting and transferring device, the occupied area is sufficiently reduced and the work space can be effectively exploited.

裝置。一般的基板昇降移送裝置的結構等,是如以下者。 即,在第1基板處理裝置的附近,設有朝上下方向延 伸的昇降導引,在此昇降導引中,將基板支撐的昇降載置 台是可昇降地被設置。且,在昇降導引的適宜位置中’設 有將昇降載置台昇降的昇降用馬達。在此,昇降載置台, 〇 是在對應第1基板處理裝置的高度,對於第1基板處理裝 置可將基板拉出及送出。且,昇降載置台,是在對應第2 基板處理裝置的高度,對於第2基板處理裝置可將基板拉 出及送出。 因此,藉由昇降用馬達的驅動使昇降體下降,使昇降 體位於對應第1基板處理裝置的高度。接著,基板是從第 1基板處理裝置朝昇降載置台被拉出。且,藉由昇降用馬 達的驅動使昇降體上昇,使昇降體位於對應第2基板處理 裝置的高度。進一步,使基板從昇降載置台朝第2基板處 -5- 201038457 理裝置被送出。 如此,進行從第1基板處理裝置朝第2基板處理裝置 的基板的昇降移送。且,藉由使基板昇降移送裝置進行前 述動作的相反的動作,進行從前述第2基板處理裝置朝前 述第1基板處理裝置的基板的昇降移送。 又,關連於本發明的先行技術,是如下述專利文獻1 [先行技術文獻] [專利文獻] [專利文獻1]日本特開平1 -3 1 8247號公報 【發明內容】 (本發明所欲解決的課題) 但是,在上述的一般的基板昇降移送裝置中,將基板 支撐的昇降載置台因爲是可昇降地被設置在昇降導引,所 以成爲將基板保持呈倒伏(水平)姿勢的方式進行昇降。 因此,基板昇降移送裝置的占有平面積(設置平面積)是 成爲需要至少基板一枚分的平面積以上。因此,基板昇降 移送裝置的占有平面積增大,工場內空間的有效利用是有 困難。特別是,近年來,基板的大型化急速進行,此問題 更顯著。 在此,本發明的目的是提供一種新穎構成的基板昇降 移送裝置及基板處理移送系統,可以解決前述的問題。 -6 - 201038457 (用以解決課題的手段) 本發明的基板昇降移送裝置,是一種基板昇降移送裝 置,是在:被配設在下階供進行對於基板的處理的第1基 板處理裝置、及被配設在上階供進行對於在與基板的處理 的第2基板處理裝置之間,進行基板的昇降移送,其特徵

保持具被保持。接著,使前述第1姿勢切換用致動器被驅 動使前述第1姿勢切換構件被擺動,使基板的姿勢從倒伏 姿勢朝立起姿勢切換。且,立起姿勢的基板,是藉由位於 對應前述第1基板處理裝置的高度的前述昇降用保持具被 保持,使由前述第1姿勢切換用保持具所産生的保持狀態 被解除。進一步,使前述行走致動器被驅動使前述環形狀 構件朝一方向循環行走,保持在立起姿勢且使基板上昇。 前述的動作是藉由被反覆進行,使複數基板從前述第1基 板處理裝置朝前述基板昇降移送裝置被送出。 將基板保持的前述昇降用保持具是位於對應前述第2 基板處理裝置的高度之後,藉由前述第2姿勢切換用保持 具使基板被保持,使由前述昇降用保持具所産生的保持狀 態被解除。且,將前述第2姿勢切換用致動器驅動使前述 第2姿勢切換構件被擺動,從立起姿勢朝倒伏姿勢切換基 板的姿勢,使由前述第2姿勢切換用保持具所産生的保持 狀態被解除。前述的動作是藉由被反覆進行,使複數基板 從前述基板昇降移送裝置朝前述第2基板處理裝置被送出 〇 如此,進行從前述第1基板處理裝置朝前述第2基板 處理裝置的基板的昇降移送。且,進行藉由前述動作的相 反的動作,進行從前述第2基板處理裝置朝前述第1基板 -8- 201038457 處理裝置的基板的昇降移送。 總而言之,在本發明中’因爲具有前述第1姿勢切換

且,因爲朝上下方向延伸的前述環形狀構件,是可循 環行走地設在前述支撐框架;複數前述昇降用保持具,是 在周方向隔有間隔被設置在前述環形狀構件,所以可以從 前述第1基板處理裝置朝前述第2基板處理裝置,或是從 前述第2基板處理裝置朝前述第1基板處理裝置,將複數 Q 基板連續地昇降移送。 本發明的基板昇降移送裝置,是進行對於基板的處理 及基板的昇降移送,具備:被配設在下階,進行對於基板
