1272229 (1) 玖、發明說明 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於製造濾色鏡等之板狀製品的生產線系統 ’尤其是,和利用可收容複數片基板(板狀材料)之卡匣來 製造板狀製品之生產線系統及用於該系統之各種物流裝置 (堆高式起重機方式之自動倉庫、以及基板收容裝置及基 板排出裝置)相關。 【先前技術】 濾色鏡之製造步驟上,含有(1)鉻成膜、(2)黑矩陣之 形成、(3)具有特定圖案之各色(紅色、綠色、及藍色)之著 色層的形成、(4)保護層之形成、(5)柱狀體之形成、 (6)IT0層之形成等多數處理步驟。 此時,以實現此種製造步驟爲目的之生產線系統方面 ,傳統上,一般係採用將實現上述各處理步驟之複數條處 理線方式配置成直線狀的直插型生產線系統。又,濾色鏡 之製造上有各種方法,而最一般的製造方法就是利用光刻 法者,此時,上述之(2)〜(5)的處理步驟係以含有微影製 程在內之處理步驟(製版步驟)來實現。又,製版步驟中’ 需要光阻劑(著色感光材料)之塗布、乾燥、預烘烤、曝光 、顯影、漂洗、乾燥、以及顯影後烘烤等複雜過程。 然而,利手光刻法之濾色鏡製造步驟中,含有複數含 微影製程在內之處理步驟的製版步驟’而且往往必須對應 如製造濾色鏡之製品種類,而變更以實現這些複數製版步 -5- 1272229 (2) 驟爲目的之複數製版線的配置構成等。亦即,近年來之濾 色鏡,各製品具有不同的規格(黑矩陣之有無、黑矩陣之 種類(鉻或樹脂)、保護層之有無、柱狀體之有無、IT〇層 之有無寺)’以问一生產線系統製造追些製品時,必須更 替製造步驟中含有之複數製版步驟的順序、或刪除特定之 製版步驟。又,最近之濾色鏡亦存在M VA之障層上立設 著柱狀體之複雜形狀的製品,以和通常製品相同之生產線 系統來製造此種製品時,即必須在製造步驟中追加新的製 φ 版步驟。 然而,上述之傳統直插型生產線系統時,因實現各處 理步驟之複數條處理線係直列連結,而有實現製版步驟之 複數製版線的配置構成等無法輕易變更之問題。又,此時 雖然可以利用在各製版線間配置適當旁通路徑來對應,然 而,此時必須增加追加之旁通路徑的設置面積,而有使生 產線系統整體之佔有面積過於龐大的問題。 又,利用光刻法之濾色鏡的製造步驟中,含有微影製 H 程在內之處理步驟(製版步驟),一般而言,會因爲異物附 著於光遮罩等而導致製品缺陷(共同缺陷等)之發生或裝置 之故障,往往必須暫停實現製版步驟之製版線的運轉。又 ’製版步驟在製造不同規格(使用感光材料、線寬、膜厚 等)之製品時,必須事先決定過程條件(有時亦會因爲感光 材料批號等而有微妙不同,故亦需每日確認當日之過程條 件),實現製版步驟之製版線上,必須在前一製品之製造 完全結束後另行實施以決定下一製品之過程條件爲目的之 -6- 1272229 (3) 處理。又,製版步驟通常需要較多處理時間,對生產線系 統整體而言,很容易成爲速度決定步驟。 然而,上述之直插型生產線系統時,因爲實現各處理 步驟之複數條處理線係直列連結,實現特定製版步驟之製 版線停止、或執行以決定該製版線之過程條件爲目的之處 理而使該製版線成爲速度決定步驟時,故有會對全部處理 線造成影響而使生產線系統之整體運轉率降低的問題。 又,利用光刻法之濾色鏡的製造步驟,如上所述,係 φ 由多數之複雜過程所構成,而有其中某一個過程(尤其是 製版步驟中之各過程)容易發生製品缺陷之問題。尤其是 ,近年來之濾色鏡的尺寸變得極爲大型化,而有製品之良 品率容易降低之問題。 傳統上,此種濾色鏡之製造步驟上,爲了提升製品之 良品率,一般會採用改善各過程使用裝置之使用條件等的 過程改善手法,然而,其改善程度有一定之限度,製造尺 寸較大之濾色鏡製造時,會有無法充分提升製品之良品率 € 的問題。因此,傳統上會以例如在生產線系統中組合檢査 機,再利用檢査機剔除檢測到缺陷之不良品,藉以提高製 品之良品率(參照日本特開平7-281 171號公報)。 然而,上述日本特開平7-281171號公報之手法雖然可 將製品之良品率提高至某種程度,然而,其檢査內容主要 係以個別缺陷爲前提,故有其提升程度有一定之限度的問 題。又,組合著檢査機之生產線系統,因係直列連結複數 處理步驟之構成,利用檢査機檢測缺陷時,爲了究明或排 -7- 1272229 (4) 除缺陷之發生原因等,往往需要暫時停止生產線系統整體 ,而有生產線無法維持高運轉率的問題。 【發明內容】 爲了解決前述問題,本發明之目的,係在提供可彈性 變更實現含微影製程在內之處理步驟(製版步驟)的複數製 版線之配置構成等而可實現高運轉率之生產線系統。 又’本發明之目的,係在提供可使生產線維持高運轉 φ 率並大幅提升製品之良品率的生產線系統。 又,本發明之目的,係在提供可有效防止製造過程之 基板破損等且可彈性對應基板之尺寸變更的生產線系統。 又,本發明之目的,係在提供生產線系統可應用之自 動倉庫,亦即,提供可縮短卡匣之入出庫作業的流程時間

本發明之第2解決手段係提供一種生產線系統,係利 用收容複數片基板之卡匣來製造板狀製品之生產線系統, 其特徵爲,具備有:用以保管已收容有複數片基板之複數 個卡匣、或空卡匣,具有用以保管複數個卡匣之存放機、 及具有在該存放機內之複數個進出位置及任意之卡匣保管 位置間搬運保管於該存放機內之卡匣的堆高式起重機之核 _ 心裝置;連結於前述核心裝置之前述各進出位置,針對收

的堆高式起重機;配設對應於前述存放機之前述進出位置 ,針對在基板搬運機構間之從卡匣排出基板或將基板收容 卡匣之前述基板搬運機構而將該卡匣定位的卡匣定位機構 ;以及在前述存放機及前述卡匣定位機構間搬運卡匣之卡 匣搬運機構;且,前述存放機之前述進出位置具有用以從 存放機搬出卡匣之出庫位置、及用以將卡匣搬入存放機之 和前述出庫位置獨立之入庫位置,前述卡匣定位機構會移 β

本發明之第4解決手段係提供一種基板收容裝置,係 將基板收容於卡匣之基板收容裝置’其特徵爲,具備有: 使卡匣移動至供應卡匣之卡匣供應位置、將基板收容於卡 匣之基板收容位置、以及回收卡匣之卡匣回收位置當中之 其中任一位置的卡匣移動機構;及將基板收容於由前述卡 匣移動機構執行定位之前述基板收容位置上之卡匣的基板 搬入機構。 本發明之第5解決手段係提供一種基板排出裝置,係 φ 將基板從卡匣排出之基板排出裝置,其特徵爲,具備有: 使卡匣移動至供應卡匣之卡匣供應位置、從卡匣排出基板 之基板排出位置、以及回收卡匣之卡匣回收位置當中之其 中任一位置的卡匣移動機構;及將基板從由前述卡匣移動 機構執行定位之前述基板排出位置上之卡匣排出之基板搬 出機構。 依據本發明第1解決手段,因保管著收容複數片玻璃 基板之複數個卡匣的堆高式起重機方式核心裝置,係經由 _ 基板進出機構連結於用以製造濾色鏡之各種處理的複數條 處理線’實現含用以黑矩陣之形成及各色著色層之形成等 微影製程在內之處理步驟(製版步驟)的複數製版線之配置 構成等之變更會更爲容易,而可對應製造之濾色鏡的製品 種類’更替這些複數製版步驟之順序,追加或刪除特定之 製版步驟。 又’依據本發明第1解決手段,因爲堆高式起重機方 式之核心裝置連結著可賓現和各主製版線相同之處理步驟 -12· 1272229 (9) 的預備製版線,即使在含微影製程在內之處理步驟(製版 步驟)發生製品缺陷(共同缺陷等)而必須暫時停止實現該 製版步驟之製版線時,可在預備製版線上繼續該製版步驟 ’而可防止生產線系統之整體運轉率的降低。又,因係利 用預備製版線決定製版步驟上必要之過程條件,而可在製 造前一製品時,同時決定下一製品之過程條件,而可利用 該預備製版線繼續下一製品之製造,進而防止生產線系統 之整體運轉率的降低。又,成爲速度決定步驟之製版線可 φ 實現之製版步驟以該製版線及預備製版線同時實現,可消 除速度決定步驟,而防止生產線系統之整體運轉率的降低 〇 又,依據本發明第1解決手段,利用生產線之處理線 當中之實現含微影製程在內之處理步驟的處理線(製版線) 上’組合用以檢測發生於處理對象之複數個玻璃基板的同 一位置上之共同缺陷的共同缺陷檢査機,可及早檢測到大 量不良品發生之原因的共同缺陷,而提昇製品之良品率。 _ 此時’依據本發明第1解決手段,因保管著收容複數片玻 璃基板之複數個卡匣的堆高式起重機方式核心裝置,係經 由基板進出機構連結於生產線之處理線,即使在含黑矩陣 之形成或各色著色層之形成等微影製程在內之處理步驟( 製版步驟)當中的之其中任一步驟因異物附著於光遮罩等 而發生共同缺陷時,除了可儘速只停止發生該共同缺陷之 處理步驟並解決問題以外,其他處理步驟則可利用保管於 核心裝置之存放機內已實施至前一處理步驟爲止之已處理 -13- (10) 1272229 玻璃基板來繼續製造。因此,可維持生產線之高運轉率並 提升製品之良品率。 又,依據本發明第1解決手段,因核心裝置連結著用 以檢查經過生產線之處理線的處理之已處理玻璃基板的處 理線(基板檢査線),而可利用個別缺陷檢査機來檢測發生 於複數個玻璃基板之不同位置上的個別缺陷,故可適當排 除和共同缺陷不同之個別缺陷的發生原因,進一步提升製 品之良品率。又,利用在處理線(基板檢査線)以基板修正 Φ 裝置修正個別缺陷檢査機檢測到之各玻璃基板的個別缺陷 ,故可改善製品之實質廢料率。 又,依據本發明第1解決手段,因核心裝置連結著用 以重生利用共同缺陷檢査機或個別缺陷檢査機檢測到之共 同缺陷或個別缺陷之玻璃基板的處理線(基板重生線),即 使個別缺陷檢査機檢測到基板修正裝置無法修正之個別缺 陷時,亦可利用處理線(基板重生線)之基板重生裝置使該 玻璃基板重生,而改善製品之實質廢料率。又,即使共同 缺陷檢査機檢測到共同缺陷時,利用處理線(基板重生線) 之基板重生裝置使該玻璃基板重生,而改善製品之實質廢 料率。又,因不會將最後會成爲不良品之玻璃基板移送至 後步驟,可防止後步驟承受到不必要之負荷,故可提升生 產線系統之整體實質運轉率。 又,依據本發明第1解決手段,堆高式起重機方式核 心裝置係由經由授受卡匣之授受裝置互相連結之複數個存 放機所構成,設置面積不同之處理線可以最小之必要設備 -14- (11) 1272229 且任意之配置構成來實施彈性配置。又,授受裝置若採用 具有配置於各存放機之堆高式起重機之代替機能的堆高式 起重機,則即使堆高式起重機發生故障,利用該具有代替 機能之堆高式起重機可繼續各存放機之處理,而提升生產 線系統之整體安定性。 依據本發明第2解決手段,因生產線系統之核心裝置 實施保管及搬運之卡匣係採用以懸掛於左右側面框架間之 複數條框線使基板以水平狀態獲得支持之框線式卡匣,故 以核心裝置之堆高式起重機等搬運卡匣時之振動可有效被 框線吸收,即使以大型基板製造濾色鏡等時,亦可防止收 容於卡匣內之基板發生破損或受損。又,因爲可以收容至 卡匣可收容之最大尺寸爲止之任意尺寸的基板,即使以同 一生產線系統製造複數種類之濾色鏡等時,無需配合基板 之尺寸更換卡匣,可有效對應少量多品種之製造。又,和 銷式卡匣等相比,可收容更大量之基板,而進一步提升具 有核心裝置之生產線系統的優點,亦即,可進一步提升針 對暫停處理步驟之對應能力。 依據本發明第3解決手段,可應用於生產線系統之自 動倉庫中,爲了使基板搬運機構可從卡匣排出基板或將基 板收容於卡匣而使該卡匣移至相對於基板搬運機構之定位 上的卡匣定位機構,在對應存放機之出庫位置之卡匣供應 位置、及對應入庫位置之卡匣排出位置間移動,在卡匣供 應位置可將卡匣從卡匣搬運機構取入,同時,在卡匣排出 位置可將卡匣轉移給卡匣搬運機構,故對卡匣執行基板之 -15- 1272229 (12) 排出或收容之期間,可使下一卡匣以鄰接方式待機,而縮 短卡匣之入出庫作業的流程時間。又,因對應存放機之出 庫位置的卡匣供應位置、及對應入庫位置之卡匣排出位置 間係利用卡匣定位機構之移動來實施卡匣之授受,而無需 以改變卡匣之移動方向爲目的之特別的方向轉換機構,又 ’覆蓋區只要對應於和卡匣供應位置及卡匣排出位置對應 之2個位置份即可,構成十分簡單且裝置之配置限制亦較 小。又,因實施卡匣之授受而在卡匣供應位置及卡匣排出 φ 位置間移動之卡匣定位機構的構成上,係在和基板搬運帶 相同之架台上實施相對移動,和以直接連結卡匣搬運機構 及基板搬運帶來避免兩者之干涉時相比,構成上更爲簡易 ,且可提升維修性。 依據本發明第4解決手段,可應用於生產線系統之基 板收容裝置中,係利用卡匣移動機構使卡匣在卡匣供應位 置、基板收容位置、及卡匣回收位置當中之其中任一位置 上移動,位於基板收容位置時,會利用基板搬入機構將基 儀 板收容於已被卡匣移動機構定位之卡匣。因此,將基板收 容至卡匣的動作只有在卡匣移動期間才會停止,又,結束 將基板收容至卡匣之時點,卡匣會從基板收容位置移至卡 匣回收位置,同時,卡匣會從卡匣供應位置移至基板收容 位置,而可縮短基板之收容作業的流程時間。 依據本發明第5解決手段,可應用於生產線系統之基 板排出裝置中,係利用卡匣移動機構使卡匣在卡匣供應位 置、基板排出位置、及卡匣回收位置當中之其中任一位置 -16- (13) 1272229 上移動,位於基板排出位置時,會利用基板搬出機構從已 被卡匣移動機構定位之卡匣排出基板。因此,從卡匣排出 基板之動作只有在卡匣移動期間才會停止,又,結束從卡 匣排出基板之時點,卡匣會從基板排出位置移至卡匣回收 位置,同時,卡匣會從卡匣供應位置移至基板排出位置, 而可縮短基板之排出作業的流程時間。 【實施方式】 以下,參照圖面針對本發明實施形態進行說明。 第1實施形態 如第1圖所示,本發明第1實施形態之生產線系統1具

STN類型之濾色鏡時,需要ΙΤΟ層之圖案化,此時,處理 線7 0上只需配設和處理線3 0相同之處理裝置(塗布裝置、 預烘烤裝置、曝光裝置、顯影裝置、洗淨裝置、蝕刻裝置 、剝離裝置、以及顯影後烘烤裝置)即可。 處理線90係用以實現和處理線40R、40G、40Β、50、 60相同之處理步驟的預備製版線,搬運路15上配設著和處 理線40R、40G、40Β、50、60相同之處理裝置(塗布裝置

第3實施形態中,和上述第1及第2實施形態相同之部份會 附與相同符號並省略詳細說明。 -36- 1272229 (33) 上述第1及第2實施形態之生產線系統1、1 ’中,利用 核心裝置1〇保管及搬運之卡匣81 ’亦可採用以從左右側面 框架向水平方向突出之複數支持銷來支持基板使其成水平 狀態之所謂銷式卡匣。又’銷式卡匣上設置複數段之支持 銷列,前述支持銷列係在同一高度從左右側面框架朝內側 突出,利用同一段之複數支持銷將1片玻璃基板支持成水 平狀態之方式來收容複數個玻璃基板。 然而,銷式卡匣時,因爲以核心裝置之堆高式起重機 Φ .等搬運卡匣時會使卡匣產生很大的振動,而有收容於卡匣 內之基板容易發生破損或受損之問題。尤其是,近年來製 造之濾色鏡等製品愈來愈大型化,上述問題亦隨著重量之 增大而變得更爲明顯。 又,銷式卡匣時,因爲支持銷之長度等會決定可收容 之基板尺寸範圍,對於超過該範圍之尺寸的基板,有必須 配合基板尺寸更換卡匣之問題。尤其是,近年來製造之濾 色鏡等製品的種類極多,而使上述問題更爲明顯。 Φ 本發明第3實施形態之主要目的即在解決此種問題, 和上述第1及第2實施形態時相同,由核心裝置1 0保管及搬 運之卡匣8 1,採用以懸掛於左右側面框架間之複數條框線 使基板支持於水平狀態之框線式卡匣。 以下,參照第1 1圖至第1

動路兩側延伸,存放機2 1 1之各列配置著上下2段用以載置 卡匣81之複數載架21 la(參照第13圖)。 又,堆高式起重機2 1 2則如第1 2圖及第1 3圖所示,係 在載置著卡匣8 1之狀態沿著存放機2 1 1移動者,利用使昇 降框架213在上下方向移動,可在存放機211內之各進出位 φ 置(搬出位置C1及搬入位置C2)及上下2段之載架211a當 中之任一載架(任意之卡匣保管位置)間搬運卡匣81。 此時,由核心裝置1 〇保管及搬運之卡匣8 1,如第1 2圖 及第13圖所示,具有上板183、立設於上板183上之左右側 面框架184、185、以及懸掛於左右側面框架184、185間之 複數條框線186。此時,複數條框線186係在不同高度之複 數段水平面上延伸,利用同一段之複數條框線1 86支持玻 璃基板82使其處於水平狀態。又,如第14圖及第15圖所示 _ ,左右側面框架1 84、1 8 5具有以螺栓等分別固定於上板 183之8支支柱18軸、185a,這些支柱184a、185a當中互相 相對之支柱會以複數撐柱187互相連結。又,框線186若爲 具有以將玻璃基板82支持成水平狀態爲目的之充分張力者 ,亦可以採用合成樹脂製或金屬製等之任意材質。又,框 線186之水平面內之條數方面,只要可充分支持玻璃基板 82且使其保持水平面之範圍,可以爲任意條數。又,框線 186之垂直方向的條數,只要可在玻璃基板82間不會發生 -38- (35) 1272229 互相干涉狀態下收容期望之玻璃基板8 2的範圍’可以爲 意條數。 又,存放機211內之各進出位置(搬出位置C1及搬 位置C2)上,分別配設著基板進出機構(基板搬出機構21 及基板搬入機構2 1 6b),如第1 1圖所示,可利用各基板 出機構21 6a從定位於各搬出位置C1之已收容基板之卡 8 1將玻璃基板8 2逐片排出至對應各搬出位置C 1之各處 線(搬運路15),同時,可利用各基板搬入機構216b將經 各處理線(搬運路15)之處理的已處理玻璃基板82逐片收 於定位於各搬入位置C2之空卡匣81內。 此時,基本上,各基板搬出機構216a及各基板搬 機構216b具有相同構成,如第14圖所示,具有:具有 觸收容於卡匣81內之玻璃基板82下面之複數滾輪190的 板搬運帶2 1 8、及爲了改變卡匣8 1及基板搬運帶2 1 8之相 位置關係而昇降卡匣81之卡匣昇降裝置217(圖上未標示 動機構)。又,如第1 1圖所示,搬出位置C 1上,卡匣8 1 被卡匣搬運裝置(圖上未標示)從出庫位置 A1搬運至各 板搬出機構216a,同時,從各基板搬出機構216a搬運 入庫位置B1。又,搬入位置C2上,卡匣81會被卡匣搬 裝置(圖上未標示)從出庫位置 A2搬運至各基板搬入機 216b,同時,從各基板搬入機構21 6b搬運至入庫位置 〇 又,如第14圖所示,各基板搬出機構216a及各基 搬入機構216b之基板搬運帶218具有:固定於設置面上 任 入 6 a 搬 匣 理 過 容 入 接 基 對 驅 會 基 至

在此種基板搬出機構216a及基板搬入機構21 6b內, 卡匣昇降裝置217可昇降卡匣81,利用卡匣昇降裝置217使 φ 卡匣81各下降1段時,基板搬運帶218之滾輪190會接觸到 收容於卡匣81內之最下方玻璃基板82之下面,而可將收容 於卡匣8 1內之各段的玻璃基板8 2排出至搬運路1 5 (參照第 1 4圖之實線箭頭)。又,利用卡匣昇降裝置2 1 7使卡匣8 1各 上昇1段時,基板搬運帶21 8之滾輪190會接觸到從搬運路 15被搬入之玻璃基板82之下面,而將玻璃基板82收容於卡 匣8 1之各段(參照第1 4圖之虛線箭頭)。 又,第14圖所示之各基板搬出機構21 6a及各基板搬 · 入機構216b內,會固定基板搬運帶218,並利用卡匣昇降 裝置2 17來昇降卡匣81,然而,只要能改變卡匣81及基板 搬運帶2 1 8之相對位置關係者,其構成上並未限定爲昇降 卡匣8 1側,亦可爲昇降基板搬運帶2 1 8側之昇降構成,亦 可爲同時昇降基板搬運帶218及卡匣81雙方之昇降構成。 又,各基板搬出機構216a及各基板搬入機構21 6b除 了如第1 4圖所示之構成以外,亦可以爲如第1 5圖所示之構 成,亦即,從卡匣昇降裝置217’(圖上未標示驅動機構)之 -40- (37) 1272229 下方進入基板搬運帶218’之構成。又,第15圖所示之基板 搬運帶2 1 8 ’具有配設於設置面上之支持框1 92、利用橫板 193固定於支持框192上之複數 字形框架194、以及以可 自由轉動之方式裝設於框架194之成對前端部194a、194b 的複數支軸189。又,各支軸189上,以等間隔配置著6個 滾輪190。又,這些支軸189上裝設著驅動機構之馬達195 、傳動支軸196a、196b、以及齒輪197等,各支軸189可朝 期望之方向轉動。 φ 此時,具有此種構成之生產線系統1”之動作,係和上 述第1及第2形態時相同,在連結於核心裝置1 0及各處理線 20、30、…、70之控制裝置(圖上未標示)的控制下,可自 動執行濾色鏡之製造、檢査、及重生等相關各種處理。 如上所示,依據本發明第3實施形態,因爲生產線系 統1之核心裝置1 0保管及搬運之卡匣8 1,係採用以懸掛於 左右側面框架184、185間之複數條框線186來支持玻璃基 板82並使其保持水平狀態之框線式卡匣,可利用框線1 86 φ 有效吸收以核心裝置1 0之堆高式起重機2 1 2搬運卡匣8 1時 所產生之振動,即使利用大型玻璃基板(例如特大尺寸 meter size)(厚度〇.7//m程度)之玻璃基板)製造濾色鏡等 時,可防止收容於卡匣81內之玻璃基板8 2破損或受損。 又,依據本發明第3實施形態,因爲由生產線系統1” 之核心裝置1 〇保管及搬運之卡匣8 1係上述之框線式卡匣, 可收容至該卡匣81可收容之最大尺寸爲止之任意尺寸的玻 璃基板,即使以同一生產線系統製造複數種類之濾色鏡等 -41 - 1272229 (38) 時,亦無需配合玻璃基板尺寸而更換卡匣,可有效對應少 量多品種之製造。 又,依據本發明第3實施形態,因爲由生產線系統1,, 之核心裝置1 〇保管及搬運之卡匣8 1係上述之框線式卡匣, 和銷式卡匣等相比,可收容大量之玻璃基板,可進一步發 揮具有核心裝置之生產線系統的優點,提昇暫停處理步驟 時之對應能力。 第4實施形態 其次,參照第1 6圖至第1 9圖,針對本發明第4實施形 態進行說明。 上述第1至第3實施形態之生產線系統1、1 ’、1”上, 核心裝置10在存放機11、211內具有複數個進出位置(搬出 位置C1及搬入位置C2),針對定位於搬出位置C1或搬入 位置C2之卡匣81,利用基板進出機構(基板搬出機構16a 及基板搬入機構16b)將玻璃基板82逐片收容至卡匣81、或 將玻璃基板82從卡匣81逐片排出。又,核心裝置1〇之存放 機11、211內之搬出位置C1或搬入位置C2分別具有分別 獨立配置之出庫位置Al、A2及入庫位置Bl、B2。 此時,上述第1至第3實施形態之生產線系統1、1 ’、 1 ”之核心裝置1 〇內,存放機1 1、2 1 1之卡匣8 1的出庫位置 Al、A2及入庫位置Bl、B2會互相不同,因爲利用基板進 出機構(基板搬出機構16a及基板搬入機構16b)實施之將玻 璃基板8 2收容於卡匣8 1之收容作業、及從卡匣8 1排出玻璃 (39) 1272229 基板82之排出作業係分別獨立實施,可縮短更換卡匣81上 必要之流程時間,而縮短玻璃基板8 2停留在各處理線2 0、 3〇.....70、90、100、110之搬運路15上的時間。 然而’具有此種構成之核心裝置1 0上,必須在基板搬 出機構16a設置具有以在搬出位置ci之出庫位置A1或入 庫位置B1、及卡匣昇降裝置17a間實施卡匣81之授受爲目 的之方向轉換機構等之卡匣搬運裝置(圖上未標示)。又, 同樣的,必須在基板搬入機構1 6 b設置具有以在搬入位置 · C2之出庫位置A2或入庫位置B2、及卡匣昇降裝置17b間 實施卡匣81之授受爲目的之方向轉換機構等之卡匣搬運裝

9圖所示,配置著卡匣昇降裝置(卡匣 定位機構)317,前述卡匣昇降裝置(卡匣定位機構)317可 針對基板搬運帶(基板搬運機構)等之搬運路15使卡匣81在 上下方向(垂直圖面之方向)昇降,且可將和其鄰接配置之 搬運路15所供應之玻璃基板82收容至卡匣81。又,存放機 φ 11及卡匣昇降裝置317之間,配置著以在兩者之間搬運卡 匣之卡匣搬運帶(卡匣搬運機構)318、319。 此時,存放機11內之搬入位置C2上,具有以從存放 機11搬出卡匣81爲目的之出庫位置A2、及將卡匣81搬入 存放機11爲目的而和出庫位置A2分別獨立之入庫位置B2 。又,卡匣昇降裝置317係配置於卡匣移動部316,可在對 應存放機1 1之出庫位置A2的卡匣供應位置D2、及對應入 庫位置B2的卡便排出位置E2之其中任一位置移動,在卡 匣供應位置D2上,可將卡匣81從卡匣搬運帶318拉入,同

基板之卡匣81會被堆高式起重機12搬運至存放機11內之搬 出位置C1的出庫位置A1。 其次,到達出庫位置 A1之卡匣81,會被卡匣搬運帶 3 18搬運至定位於卡匣供應位置D1之卡匣昇降裝置317。 如上所示,已收容基板之卡匣8 1定位於卡匣供應位置 D 1後,會從已收容基板之卡匣8 1排出玻璃基板82。此時 ,卡匣昇降裝置31 7會使已收容基板之卡匣81各下降1段, φ 並由基板搬運帶(圖上未標示)等將玻璃基板82逐片從卡匣 81搬出至搬運路15。 又,如上所示,排出玻璃基板82之同時,下一個排出 玻璃基板之其他已收容基板之卡匣8 1已移至卡匣供應位置 D 1之前方位置待機。 其後,結束玻璃基板82之排出且已成爲空無一物之卡 匣81,會在卡匣移動部316中以卡匣昇降裝置31 7使其上昇 至特定高度爲止,同時移至卡匣排出位置E1。如上所示 鲁 ,移至卡匣排出位置E1之空卡匣81,會被從卡匣昇降裝 置317送出至卡匣搬運帶319,而被搬至存放機11之入庫位 置B 1。又,如上所示,到達入庫位置B 1之空卡匣8 1,會 被堆高式起重機12視爲收容用卡匣而保管於存放機11內之 空載架1 la內。 另一方面,卡匣昇降裝置317會回到卡匣供應位置D1 ’其次,將應排出玻璃基板之已收容基板之卡匣8 1從卡匣 搬運帶318拉入。 -46- 1272229 (43) 以後,重複執行上述動作。 其次,參照第18圖及第19圖,針對將玻璃基板82收容 至空卡匣8 1之動作進行說明。 此時,首先會利用堆高式起重機1 2將保管於存放機1 1 之載架11a內的空卡匣81搬至存放機11內之搬入位置C2的 出庫位置A 2。 其次,到達出庫位置 A2之卡匣81,會被卡匣搬運帶 318搬至定位於卡匣供應位置D2之卡匣昇降裝置317。 其後,當空卡匣81配置於卡匣昇降裝置317後,卡匣 移動部316中,會利用卡匣昇降裝置317使卡匣81下降至特 定高度爲止,同時將其移至卡匣排出位置E2。 如上所示,空卡匣81定位於卡匣排出位置E2後,玻 璃基板82會被收容於空卡匣81。此時,卡匣昇降裝置317 會使空卡匣81各下降1段,然後利用基板搬運帶(圖上未標 示)等逐片將玻璃基板82從搬運路15搬入至卡匣81。 又,如上所示,收容玻璃基板82之同時,下一個收容 玻璃基板之其他空卡匣81已移至卡匣供應位置D2之前方 位置待機。 其後,結束玻璃基板82之收容而成爲已收容基板之卡 匣81,會被從卡匣昇降裝置317送出至卡匣搬運帶319,同 時移至存放機1 1之入庫位置B2。又,如上所示,到達入 庫位置B2之已收容基板之卡匣81,會被利用堆高式起重 機12移至存放機11內之空載架11a內進行保管。 另一方面,卡匣昇降裝置317會回到卡匣供應位置D2 -47- 1272229 (44) ’其次,將應收容玻璃基板之空卡匣8 1從卡匣搬運帶3 1 8 拉入。 以後,重複執行上述動作。 如上所示,依據本發明第4實施形態,因爲上述第1至 第3實施形態之生產線系統1、1 ’、1 ”所使用之核心裝置1 〇 中,爲了在和基板搬運帶(基板搬運機構)等搬運路15間實 施從卡匣81排出玻璃基板82、或將玻璃基板82收容於卡匣 81,可相對於搬運路15而使該卡匣81昇降之卡匣昇降裝置 317,會在對應存放機11之出庫位置Al、A2的卡匣供應位 置D1、D2、及對應入庫位置B1、B2的卡匣排出位置E1 、E2間移動,在卡匣供應位置Dl、D2會從卡匣搬運帶 3 18將卡匣81拉入,同時,在卡匣排出位置El、E2則會將 卡匣81送出至卡匣搬運帶319,因此,針對卡匣81實施玻 璃基板82之收容或排出的期間,下一卡匣81已鄰接待機, 故可縮短卡匣8 1之入出庫作業的流程時間。又,因係利用 對應存放機11之出庫位置Al、A2的卡匣供應位置Dl、D2 φ 、及對應入庫位置Bl、Β2的卡匣排出位置El、Ε2間之卡 匣昇降裝置317的移動來執行卡匣81之授受,無需以轉換 卡匣81之移動方向爲目的之特別的方向轉換機構,又,覆 蓋區亦只需要對應於卡匣供應位置D1、D2及卡匣排出位 置El、E2之2個位置份即可,故可簡化構成且減少裝置配 置之限制。又,在實施卡匣81之授受之卡匣供應位置D1 、D2及卡匣排出位置El、E2間移動之卡匣昇降裝置317的 構成上,因係在基板搬運帶(基板搬運機構)等搬運路15之 •48- (45) 1272229 同一架台上相對移動,和以直接連結卡匣搬運帶318、319 及基板搬運帶(基板搬運機構)等搬運路15來避免兩者之干 涉時相比,構成較爲簡單,故亦可提昇維修性。 又,上述第4實施形態中,利用核心裝置1 0保管及搬 運之卡匣8 1,除了可採用以懸掛於左右側面框架間之複數 條框線使基板支持於水平狀態之框線式卡匣以外,亦可採 用以從左右側面框架向水平方向突出之複數支持銷來支持 基板使其成水平狀態之銷式卡匣。 又,上述第4實施形態中,用以在存放機1 1及卡匣昇

product such as a color filter, in particular, and a card which can accommodate a plurality of substrates (sheet materials). A production line system for a plate-shaped product and various logistics devices for the system (automatic warehouse for stacking cranes, and substrate storage devices and substrate discharge devices). [Prior Art] The manufacturing process of the color filter includes (1) formation of a chromium film, (2) formation of a black matrix, and (3) formation of a color layer of each color (red, green, and blue) having a specific pattern, ( 4) Most processing steps such as formation of a protective layer, (5) formation of a columnar body, and (6) formation of an IT0 layer. At this time, in the production line system for the purpose of realizing such a manufacturing step, conventionally, a linear in-line type production line system in which a plurality of processing lines for realizing the above-described respective processing steps are arranged in a straight line is generally employed. Moreover, there are various methods for manufacturing the color filter, and the most common manufacturing method is to use photolithography. In this case, the processing steps of (2) to (5) above are processed by a process including a lithography process ( Plate making step) to achieve. Further, in the plate making step, a complicated process such as coating, drying, prebaking, exposure, development, rinsing, drying, and post-development baking of a photoresist (colored photosensitive material) is required. However, in the color filter manufacturing step of the lithography method, the plate making step including the processing steps including the lithography process is often required to correspond to the type of the article such as the color filter, and the change is made to realize the plural plate-making step-5- 1272229 (2) The configuration of the complex plate making line for the purpose of the purpose. That is to say, in recent years, the color filters have different specifications (the presence or absence of a black matrix, the type of a black matrix (chromium or resin), the presence or absence of a protective layer, the presence or absence of a columnar body, and the presence or absence of an IT layer). When a production line system manufactures a product, it is necessary to replace the order of the plural plate making steps contained in the manufacturing step, or to delete a specific plate making step. Further, in the recent color filter, there is also a product in which the columnar body has a complicated shape on the barrier layer of the MVA, and when the product is manufactured in the same line system as the normal product, it is necessary to add a new system in the manufacturing step. Step φ. However, in the above-described conventional in-line type production line system, since a plurality of processing lines for realizing various steps are connected in series, there is a problem that the configuration of the plurality of plate making lines for realizing the plate making step cannot be easily changed. Further, in this case, it is possible to arrange an appropriate bypass path between the respective plate-making lines. However, in this case, it is necessary to increase the installation area of the additional bypass path, and there is a problem that the occupied area of the entire production line system is too large. Further, in the manufacturing process of the color filter by the photolithography method, the processing step (plate making step) including the lithography H process generally causes product defects (common defects, etc. due to adhesion of foreign matter to the light mask or the like). The occurrence of the device or the failure of the device often necessitates the operation of the plate making line for the plate making step. In the 'plate making step', when manufacturing products of different specifications (using photosensitive materials, line widths, film thicknesses, etc.), the process conditions must be determined in advance (sometimes because of the subtle difference in the number of photosensitive materials, etc., so daily confirmation is required. In the process conditions of the day, the plate making line for the plate making step must be separately processed after the manufacture of the previous product to determine the process conditions of the next product, -6-1272229 (3). Moreover, the plate making step usually requires more processing time, and it is easy to become a speed determining step for the entire production line system. However, in the above-described in-line type production line system, since the plurality of processing lines for realizing the respective processing steps are connected in series, the plate making line for the specific plate making step is stopped, or the processing for determining the process conditions of the plate making line is performed. When the plate making line becomes the speed determining step, there is a problem that the entire processing line is affected and the overall operating rate of the line system is lowered. Further, the manufacturing steps of the color filter by the photolithography method are as described above, and the system φ is composed of a plurality of complicated processes, and there is a problem that one of the processes (especially the processes in the plate making step) is liable to cause product defects. In particular, in recent years, the size of the color filter has become extremely large, and the yield of the product is liable to be lowered. Conventionally, in order to improve the yield of the product, in order to improve the yield of the product, a process for improving the use conditions of the devices used in each process is generally used. However, the degree of improvement is limited, and the manufacturing size is large. When the color filter is manufactured, there is a problem that the yield of the product cannot be sufficiently increased. For this reason, the inspection machine is combined, for example, in the production line system, and the defect product is detected by the inspection machine, thereby improving the yield of the product (refer to Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei 7-281 171). However, the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 7-281171 can increase the yield of the product to a certain extent. However, the inspection content is mainly based on individual defects, so there is a problem that the degree of improvement has a certain limit. . Moreover, in combination with the production line system of the inspection machine, it is necessary to temporarily stop the production line in order to detect or eliminate the defect by using the inspection machine to detect the defect. The system as a whole, and there is a problem that the production line cannot maintain a high operation rate. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a production line capable of realizing a high operation rate by providing a configuration of a plurality of plate-making lines which can be elastically changed to realize a processing step (plate making step) including a lithography process. system.

According to the first solution of the present invention, the stacker type core device for storing a plurality of cassettes for accommodating a plurality of glass substrates is connected to a plurality of processing lines for performing various processes of the color filter via the substrate transfer mechanism. It is easier to change the configuration of the complex plate making line including the processing steps (plate making step) including the formation of the black matrix and the formation of the colored layers of the respective colors, and it is possible to correspond to the manufactured color filter. The product type 'replaces the order of these plural plate making steps, adding or deleting specific plate making steps. In addition, according to the first solution of the present invention, the core device of the stacking crane method is connected with the preparatory plate line of the same processing step -12· 1272229 (9), which is even in the lithography. When the processing steps (plate making step) of the process occur, product defects (common defects, etc.) occur, and the plate making line of the plate making step must be temporarily stopped, the plate making step can be continued on the preparatory plate making line to prevent the overall operation rate of the production line system. The reduction. Moreover, since the preparatory plate making line determines the necessary process conditions in the plate making step, the process conditions of the next product can be determined at the same time when the former product is manufactured, and the preparatory plate making line can be used to continue the manufacture of the next product. Prevent the overall operating rate of the production line system from decreasing. Moreover, the plate making step which is the speed determining step can be realized by the plate making line and the preparatory plate making line at the same time, the speed determining step can be eliminated, and the overall running rate of the line system can be prevented from being lowered. Further, according to the first aspect of the present invention The solution means, by using a processing line (plate making line) for realizing a processing step including a lithography process among the processing lines of the production line, the combination is used to detect a common defect occurring at the same position of the plurality of glass substrates of the processing object. The common defect inspection machine can detect the common defects of the causes of a large number of defective products at an early stage, and improve the yield rate of the products. _ In this case, according to the first solution of the present invention, the stacker type core device for storing a plurality of cassettes for accommodating a plurality of glass substrates is connected to the processing line of the production line via the substrate inlet/outlet mechanism, even in the case of black When any one of the processing steps (plate making step), such as the formation of a matrix or the formation of a colored layer of a color, is caused by foreign matter adhering to a light mask or the like, a common defect occurs, except that it can be stopped as soon as possible. In addition to the processing steps of the common defect and solving the problem, the other processing steps can be continued by using the processed-13-(10) 1272229 glass substrate that has been stored in the storage device of the core device and has been implemented to the previous processing step. Therefore, the high operating rate of the production line can be maintained and the yield of the product can be improved. Further, according to the first means of the present invention, the processing line (substrate inspection line) of the processed glass substrate for inspecting the processing line passing through the processing line is connected to the core device, and the detection can be performed by the individual defect inspection machine. Individual defects at different positions of a plurality of glass substrates can be appropriately excluded from the occurrence of individual defects different from the common defects, thereby further improving the yield of the product. Further, by correcting the individual defects of the respective glass substrates detected by the individual defect inspection machine by the substrate correction Φ device on the processing line (substrate inspection line), the substantial scrap rate of the product can be improved. Further, according to the first solution of the present invention, the core device is connected to the processing line (substrate re-energizing line) for regenerating the glass substrate of the common defect or the individual defect detected by the common defect inspection machine or the individual defect inspection machine, even if individual When the defect inspection machine detects an individual defect that cannot be corrected by the substrate correction device, the substrate regeneration device of the processing line (substrate regeneration line) can also regenerate the glass substrate to improve the substantial scrap rate of the product. Further, even if the common defect inspection machine detects a common defect, the substrate reproducing device using the processing line (substrate reproduction line) regenerates the glass substrate to improve the substantial waste rate of the product. Further, since the glass substrate which will eventually become a defective product is not transferred to the subsequent step, the subsequent step can be prevented from being subjected to an unnecessary load, so that the overall substantial operation rate of the production line system can be improved. Moreover, according to the first solution of the present invention, the core device of the stacking crane system is composed of a plurality of storage machines connected to each other via a receiving and receiving device, and the processing equipment with different installation areas can be the smallest necessary equipment-14- (11) 1272229 and any configuration is configured to implement elastic configuration. In addition, if the stacking and lowering crane having the replacement function of the stacker mounted on each storage machine is used, the stacker can continue to use the stacker with the replacement function even if the stacker fails. The treatment improves the overall stability of the production line system. According to the second solution of the present invention, the card which is stored and transported by the core device of the production line system is a frame type card which is supported by a plurality of frame lines suspended between the left and right side frames to obtain a support in a horizontal state. When the cassette is transported by a stacker of a core device or the like, the vibration can be effectively absorbed by the frame. Even when a color filter or the like is manufactured on a large substrate, the substrate accommodated in the cassette can be prevented from being damaged or damaged. Moreover, since it is possible to accommodate a substrate of any size up to the maximum size that can be accommodated in the cassette, even when a plurality of types of color filters are manufactured by the same production line system, it is not necessary to replace the cassette with the size of the substrate, and it is possible to effectively cope with a small number of types of manufacturing. . Further, compared with the pin type cassette, etc., a larger number of substrates can be accommodated, and the advantage of the line system having the core device can be further improved, that is, the corresponding ability to suspend the processing steps can be further improved. According to the third solution of the present invention, it can be applied to an automatic warehouse of a production line system, in order to allow the substrate transport mechanism to discharge the substrate from the cassette or to accommodate the substrate in the cassette to move the cassette to the position relative to the substrate transport mechanism. The upper locking mechanism moves between the card feeding position corresponding to the storage position of the storage machine and the card discharging position corresponding to the storage position, and the cassette can be taken in from the cassette carrying mechanism at the card feeding position, and at the same time The cassette can be transferred to the cassette transport mechanism at the cassette discharge position, so that the next cassette can be standbyd in the adjacent manner during the discharge or storage of the cassette -15-1272229 (12). The process time of the card entry and exit operations. Moreover, since the cassette supply position corresponding to the storage position of the storage machine and the card discharge position corresponding to the storage position are moved by the movement of the cassette positioning mechanism, the movement direction of the cassette is not required to be changed. For the special direction changing mechanism of the purpose, the 'coverage area' only needs to correspond to the two position parts corresponding to the cassette supply position and the cassette discharge position, and the configuration is very simple and the configuration limitation of the device is also small. Further, the card positioning mechanism that moves between the cassette supply position and the cassette discharge position φ by the implementation of the cassette is configured to perform relative movement on the same stage as the substrate conveyance belt, and to directly connect the card.匣The transport mechanism and the substrate transport are easier to construct than the interference between the two, and the maintenance performance can be improved. According to the fourth solution of the present invention, the substrate storage device of the production line system can be applied to any one of the cassette supply position, the substrate storage position, and the cassette recovery position by the cassette moving mechanism. When moving, when it is located at the substrate storage position, the substrate loading mechanism is used to accommodate the substrate plate in the cassette that has been positioned by the cassette moving mechanism. Therefore, the operation of accommodating the substrate to the cassette is stopped only during the movement of the cassette, and when the substrate is received into the cassette, the cassette is moved from the substrate storage position to the cassette recovery position, and at the same time, the cassette is jammed. The movement time from the cassette supply position to the substrate storage position is shortened, and the flow time of the substrate storage operation can be shortened. According to the fifth solution of the present invention, it can be applied to a substrate discharge device of a production line system by using a cassette moving mechanism to cause the cassette to be in any one of a cassette supply position, a substrate discharge position, and a cassette recovery position - 16- (13) 1272229 When moving up and at the substrate discharge position, the substrate is ejected from the cassette that has been positioned by the cassette moving mechanism by the substrate carry-out mechanism. Therefore, the action of discharging the substrate from the cassette is stopped only during the movement of the cassette, and when the ejection of the substrate from the cassette is completed, the cassette is moved from the substrate discharge position to the cassette recovery position, and the cassette is removed from the cassette. The cassette supply position is moved to the substrate discharge position, and the flow time of the substrate discharge operation can be shortened.

It is housed in each section of the cassette 8 (see the dotted arrow in Figure 14). Further, in each of the substrate carrying-out mechanism 216a and the substrate loading/receiving mechanism 216b shown in Fig. 14, the substrate carrying belt 218 is fixed, and the cassette lifting device 2 17 is used to lift the cassette 81. However, as long as it can be changed The relative positional relationship between the cassette 81 and the substrate conveyance belt 2 18 is not limited to the side of the lifting cassette 8 1 , and may be a lifting structure of the lifting board conveying belt 2 1 8 side, or may be simultaneously raised and lowered. The substrate conveyance belt 218 and the cassette 81 are both raised and lowered. Further, each of the substrate carrying-out mechanism 216a and each of the substrate carrying-in mechanisms 21 6b may have a configuration as shown in Fig. 14 in addition to the configuration shown in Fig. 14, that is, from the cassette lifting device 217' ( The structure of the substrate carrying belt 218' is shown below the -40-(37) 1272229, which is not shown in the figure.

When a color filter or the like is manufactured for a glass substrate of 7/m level), the glass substrate 8 2 accommodated in the cassette 81 can be prevented from being damaged or damaged. According to the third embodiment of the present invention, since the cassette 8 1 stored and transported by the core unit 1 of the line system 1" is the above-described frame type cassette, the maximum size that can be accommodated in the cassette 81 can be accommodated. Even if a glass substrate of any size is manufactured in the same line system, when a plurality of types of color filters, such as -41 - 1272229 (38), are produced, it is not necessary to replace the cassette with the size of the glass substrate, and it is possible to effectively cope with a small number of types of manufacturing. According to the third embodiment of the present invention, the cassette 8 1 stored and transported by the core unit 1 of the production line system 1 is the above-described frame type cassette, and can accommodate a large number of the cassette type cassettes and the like.

Bl and B2 are different from each other, and the glass substrate 8 2 is housed in the cassette 8 1 and the glass is discharged from the cassette 8 by the substrate feeding mechanism (substrate carrying-out mechanism 16a and substrate carrying mechanism 16b). 1272229 The discharge operation of the substrate 82 is independently implemented, and the necessary process time for replacing the cassette 81 can be shortened, and the glass substrate 8 2 is shortened to stay on each processing line 20, 3〇. . . . . The time on the transport path 15 of 70, 90, 100, 110. However, in the core device 10 having such a configuration, it is necessary to provide the substrate carrying-out mechanism 16a with the purpose of performing the transfer of the cassette 81 between the delivery position A1 or the storage position B1 at the carry-out position ci and the cassette lifting device 17a. A card transfer device such as a direction changing mechanism (not shown). In addition, in the same manner, it is necessary to provide a direction conversion mechanism for the purpose of performing the transfer of the cassette 81 between the delivery position A2 or the storage position B2 of the loading position C2 and the cassette lifting/lowering device 17b in the substrate loading mechanism 1 6 b. The card handling device (not shown). Therefore, there is a problem that the mechanical mechanism of the cassette handling device is complicated and the arrangement of the device is large. In order to solve such a problem, the fourth embodiment of the present invention has been modified to change the configuration of the core device 10 of the production line systems 1, 1 ', 1" of the first to third embodiments.

The stacker 12 of the cassette 81 stored in the storage box is placed. At this time, the structure of the storage unit 1 is arranged in a plurality of upper and lower stages 11a for loading the cassette 81. In addition to moving in the left-right direction on the rail 13 extending along the storage machine 11, the stacking crane 12 is movable in the vertical direction by moving the lifting frame (not shown) in the storage machine 11. Each of the entry and exit positions (the carry-out position C1 and the carry-in position C2) and the -43- (40) 1272229 transport the cassette 81 between any of the carriers 11a (the arbitrary cassette storage position) of the upper and lower stages of the carrier 11a. At this time, the track 13 One storage machine 11 is provided on one side, however, it is not limited to this. Two storage machines can be arranged on both sides of the track 13. Further, the storage frame of the storage machine is configured to be up and down. However, it is not limited thereto, and the carrier of the storage machine is also 1 1 a. It can be arranged in three or more stages. Further, only one stacker 12 is moving on the rail 13, however, it is not limited thereto, and two or more stack cranes on the rail 13 may be moved. φ As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, a cassette lifting device (click positioning mechanism) 3, the aforementioned cassette lifting device (card) is disposed outside the carrying position C1 of the storage device 1 1 of the core device 1 The positioning mechanism 31 can raise and lower the cassette 81 in the vertical direction (the direction of the vertical plane) with respect to the conveyance path 15 such as the substrate conveyance belt (substrate conveyance mechanism), and can be moved from the gap corresponding to the accommodation interval of the glass substrate 82. The cassette 81 discharges the glass substrate 82 to the conveyance path 15 disposed adjacent thereto. Further, between the storage machine 11 and the cassette lifting and lowering device 317, a cassette carrying belt for transporting the cassette between the two is disposed ( The cassette handling mechanism Lu) 318, 319. At this time, the carrying position in the storage box The C1 has a storage position A1 for the purpose of removing the cassette 81 from the storage unit 11, and a storage position B1 independent of the delivery position A1 for the purpose of loading the cassette 81 into the storage unit. The device 31 7 is disposed in the cassette moving unit 316, and is movable at any one of the cassette supply position D1 corresponding to the delivery position A1 of the storage unit 11 and the cassette discharge position E1 corresponding to the storage position B1. At the supply position D1, the cassette 81 can be pulled from the cassette carrying belt 31 8 and, at the same time as -44-1272229 (41), the cassette 81 can be fed to the cassette carrying belt 318 at the cassette discharge position E1. . On the other hand, outside the loading position C2 of the storage unit 11 of the core device 10, as shown in Figs. 18 and 19, a cassette lifting device (click positioning mechanism) 317, the above-described cassette lifting device ( The cassette positioning mechanism 317 can raise and lower the cassette 81 in the vertical direction (the direction of the vertical plane) with respect to the conveyance path 15 such as the substrate conveyance belt (substrate conveyance mechanism), and can supply the conveyance path 15 disposed adjacent thereto. The glass substrate 82 is housed in the cassette 81. Further, between the storage machine φ 11 and the cassette elevating device 317, cassette carrying belts (click transport mechanisms) 318 and 319 for transporting cassettes therebetween are disposed. At this time, the loading position C2 in the storage machine 11 has a storage position A2 for the purpose of carrying out the cassette 81 from the storage machine 11, and a storage unit A2 for the purpose of loading the cassette 81 into the storage unit 11 and the storage position A2. Location B2. Further, the cassette lifting device 317 is disposed in the cassette moving portion 316, and can be located at any one of the cassette supply position D2 corresponding to the delivery position A2 of the storage unit 1 and the card discharge position E2 corresponding to the storage position B2. Moving, at the cassette supply position D2, the cassette 81 can be pulled in from the cassette carrying belt 318, and at the cassette discharge position E2, the cassette 81 can be fed out to the cassette carrying belt 31. Further, as shown in Figs. 16 and 18, the positional relationship between the delivery position A1 and the storage position B1 is opposite to the positional relationship between the delivery position A2 and the storage position B2. Next, the operation of discharging the glass substrate 82 from the cassette 81 that accommodates the substrate on which the glass substrate is housed will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17 . -45- (42) 1272229 At this time, first, the cassette 81 of the stored substrate stored in the carrier 11a of the storage unit 11 is transported by the stacker 12 to the delivery position of the carry-out position C1 in the storage unit 11. A1. Next, the cassette 81 reaching the delivery position A1 is transported by the cassette carrying belt 3 18 to the cassette lifting device 317 positioned at the cassette supply position D1. As described above, after the cassette 8 1 in which the substrate has been placed is positioned at the cassette supply position D 1 , the glass substrate 82 is ejected from the cassette 8 1 in which the substrate has been accommodated. At this time, the cassette lifting device 31 7 lowers the cassette 81 of the substrate to be stored one by one, and φ carries the glass substrate 82 one by one from the cassette 81 to the conveyance path by the substrate conveyance belt (not shown) or the like. 15. Further, as described above, while the glass substrate 82 is being discharged, the cassette 8 1 of the other substrate on which the next glass substrate is discharged has moved to the position before the cassette supply position D 1 to stand by. Thereafter, the cassette 81, which has been discharged from the glass substrate 82 and has become empty, is lifted to a certain height by the cassette lifting unit 317 in the cassette moving portion 316, and is moved to the cassette discharge. Location E1. As shown above, the empty cassette 81 moved to the cassette ejecting position E1 is sent from the cassette elevating unit 317 to the cassette carrying belt 319, and is moved to the storage position B1 of the storage unit 11. Further, as described above, the empty cassette 8 1 that has reached the storage position B 1 is stored in the empty carriage 1 la in the storage unit 11 by the stacker 12 as a storage cassette. On the other hand, the cassette elevating device 317 returns to the cassette supply position D1', and the cassette 8 1 of the accommodated substrate on which the glass substrate is to be ejected is pulled from the cassette carrying belt 318. -46- 1272229 (43) Repeat the above actions later. Next, an operation of accommodating the glass substrate 82 to the empty cassette 8 1 will be described with reference to Figs. 18 and 19 . At this time, the empty cassette 81 stored in the carrier 11a of the storage unit 1 1 is first transported to the storage position A 2 of the loading position C2 in the storage unit 11 by the stacking crane 1 2 . Next, the cassette 81 reaching the delivery position A2 is moved by the cassette carrying belt 318 to the cassette lifting device 317 positioned at the cassette supply position D2. Thereafter, when the empty cassette 81 is disposed in the cassette lifting device 317, the cassette moving portion 316 lowers the cassette 81 to a specific height by the cassette lifting device 317, and moves it to the cassette ejecting position E2. . As described above, after the empty cassette 81 is positioned at the cassette discharge position E2, the glass substrate 82 is accommodated in the empty cassette 81. At this time, the cassette elevating device 317 lowers the empty cassette 81 by one step, and then the glass substrate 82 is carried from the transport path 15 to the cassette 81 piece by piece by a substrate carrying belt (not shown). Further, as described above, while the glass substrate 82 is housed, the other empty cassette 81 of the next accommodating glass substrate is moved to the position before the cassette supply position D2. Thereafter, the cassette 81, which has been placed in the glass substrate 82 and has been accommodated, is sent from the cassette elevating device 317 to the cassette carrying belt 319, and is moved to the storage position B2 of the storage unit 1 1 . Further, as described above, the cassette 81 that has received the substrate at the storage position B2 is moved to the empty rack 11a in the storage unit 11 by the stacker hoisting machine 12 for storage. On the other hand, the cassette elevating device 317 returns to the cassette supply position D2 - 47 - 1272229 (44)'. Next, the empty cassette 8 1 for accommodating the glass substrate is pulled in from the cassette carrying belt 3 1 8 . In the future, the above actions are repeated. As described above, according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, in the core device 1 used in the production line systems 1, 1 ', 1" of the first to third embodiments, the substrate transporting belt (the substrate transporting mechanism) The transport path 15 is configured such that the glass substrate 82 is discharged from the cassette 81 or the glass substrate 82 is received in the cassette 81, and the cassette lifting and lowering device 317 can be moved up and down with respect to the transport path 15. The cassette supply positions D1, D2 of the storage positions A1 and A2 of the storage machine 11 and the cassette discharge positions E1 and E2 corresponding to the storage positions B1 and B2 move between the cassette supply positions D1 and D2 from the cassette conveyance position. 3 18, the cassette 81 is pulled in, and the cassette 81 is sent to the cassette conveyance belt 319 at the cassette discharge positions E1 and E2. Therefore, during the storage or discharge of the glass substrate 82 by the cassette 81, The next cassette 81 is adjacent to the standby, so that the flow time of the loading and unloading operation of the cassette 8 1 can be shortened. Further, since the cassette supply positions D1, D2 φ and the corresponding storage positions 11 and A2 of the storage unit 11 are used, Corresponding positions El, Ε2 corresponding to the storage locations B1, Β2 The movement of the cassette lifting device 317 to perform the transfer of the cassette 81 does not require a special direction changing mechanism for the purpose of switching the direction of movement of the cassette 81. Moreover, the coverage area only needs to correspond to the cassette supply position D1. The two positions of the D2 and the cassette discharge positions El and E2 are sufficient, so that the configuration can be simplified and the arrangement of the apparatus can be reduced. Further, the cassette supply positions D1 and D2 and the cassette discharge position of the cassette 81 can be implemented. The configuration of the cassette elevating device 317 that moves between El and E2 is relatively moved on the same gantry of the transport path 15 such as the substrate transport belt (substrate transport mechanism), and the card is directly connected. When the conveyance path 15 such as the conveyance belts 318 and 319 and the substrate conveyance belt (substrate conveyance mechanism) is used to avoid interference between the two, the configuration is simple, and the maintainability can be improved. Further, in the fourth embodiment, the fourth embodiment is utilized. The cassette 8 1 for storing and transporting the core device 10 may be a frame-type cassette that supports the substrate in a horizontal state by a plurality of frame lines suspended between the left and right side frames, and may be used to frame from the left and right sides. A plurality of support pins protruding in the horizontal direction support the substrate to be in a horizontal state. The fourth embodiment is for carrying a card between the storage unit 1 1 and the cassette lifting device 3 1 7 The cassette transporting mechanism of the 匣8 1 uses the cassette transport belts 318 and 319. However, any transport mechanism such as AGV, RGV, or CV may be used as long as the carrier of the cassette can be implemented. The core device is applied to the production line systems 1, 1 ', 1" of the above-described first to third embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and can be widely applied to a stack for processing cassettes accommodating a plurality of substrates. High-rise cranes, automatic warehouses, etc. Fifth Embodiment Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 20. In the production line systems 1, 1 ', 1" of the first to fourth embodiments, the substrate insertion/removal mechanism (the substrate loading and unloading mechanism 16a) is applied to the cassette 81 positioned at the entry and exit position (the carry-out position C1 or the carry-in position C2). The substrate loading mechanism 16b) is configured to receive the glass substrate 82 in the cassette 81 one by one or to discharge the glass substrate 82 from the cassette 81 to the 1272229 (46) sheet. However, the substrate feeding mechanism (the substrate carrying-out mechanism 16a and the structure) having such a configuration The substrate loading mechanism 16b) supplies the cassette supply position of the cassette 81, and performs the substrate entry and exit position for accommodating the glass substrate 82 on the cassette 81 or the glass substrate 82 from the cassette 81, and the cassette of the recovery cassette 81. The recovery positions are not independent, and the supply of the cassettes 81, the storage or discharge of the glass substrate 82, and the recovery of the cassettes 81 are performed at one position. Therefore, the flow time of the storage or discharge operation of the glass substrate 82 is relatively small. The main object of the fifth embodiment of the present invention is to solve the above problems, and to provide the substrate entry and exit mechanism of the production line systems 1, 1 ', 1" of the first to fourth embodiments (especially Plate loading mechanism 16b) for changing the configuration, the receiving substrate may be a glass substrate to provide a thin plate-like material of the receiving apparatus 416. As shown in Fig. 20, the substrate housing device 416 according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention has a cassette moving mechanism 419, a cassette lifting and lowering device 417, and a glass substrate moving unit 4 1 8 . Here, the cassette moving mechanism 419 can move the cassette 81 at any of the cassette supply position F1, the substrate housing position G1, and the cassette recovery position Η1. Further, the cassette supply position F 1 is the position at which the cassette 8 1 is supplied. Therefore, the cassette 81 supplied to the position is usually an empty cassette that does not accommodate the glass substrate 82. The substrate housing position G1 accommodates the glass substrate 82 to the cassette 81. Therefore, the cassette 8 1 disposed at this position is a cassette that accommodates the glass substrate 8 2 . The cassette recovery position Η1 is a position at which the cassette 81 is transferred after the storage glass substrate 82 is collected. Therefore, the card recovered from this location. 81 is usually -50-(47) 1272229 The cassette of the accommodated substrate accommodated in the glass substrate 82 has been completed. Further, the arrangement of the cassette supply position F1, the substrate housing position G1, and the cassette recovery position Η 1 are adjacent to each other and arranged in a line. As shown in Fig. 20, the cassette moving mechanism 419 moves the empty cassette 8 1 supplied to the cassette supply position F 1 from the cassette supply position F 1 to the substrate housing position G1. In this manner, the empty cassette 81 that has moved to the substrate accommodating position G1 becomes a cassette that is accommodating the glass substrate 82. Thereafter, when the cassette 81 finishes accommodating the glass substrate 82, the card φ 匣 81 during storage becomes a cassette in which the substrate of the glass substrate 82 has been accommodated. At this time, the cassette moving mechanism 41 9 moves the cassette 81 of the accommodated substrate from the substrate accommodation position G 1 to the cassette recovery position Η 1 . The cassette 81 of the accommodated substrate located at the cassette recovery position Η1 is collected at the cassette recovery position Η 1. As described above, the cassette moving mechanism 419 moves the empty cassette 81 at the cassette supply position F1 from the cassette supply position F1 to the substrate housing position G1, and the cassette in the housing receiving position G1 is accommodated. 81 Move to the card back to the collection position Η1. Further, the two types of movement of the cassette moving mechanism 419 as described above may be independent individual movements. However, the precondition is that the position of the moving destination (the substrate housing position G 1 or the cassette recovery position Η 1 ) is vacant. Further, the two types of movement of the cassette moving mechanism 419 as described above may be associated interlocking movement. For example, moving the two cassettes 8 1 at the same time causes the substrate accommodation position G1 to form an empty area, and at the same time, the cassette 8 1 at the cassette supply position F1 is moved to the empty area. However, at this time, the condition for the purpose of moving is also -51 - 1272229 (48). Further, the cassette elevating device 41 7 raises and lowers the cassette 81 which is positioned by the cassette moving mechanism 419 at the substrate storage position GI in the vertical direction (the direction of the vertical plane) in accordance with the gap corresponding to the accommodation interval of the glass substrate 82. The storage position of the glass substrate 82 of the cassette 81 (one of the plurality of storage places) and the supply position of the glass substrate 82 on the conveyance path (not shown) such as the substrate conveyance belt are matched. Further, the glass substrate moving device 418 is placed on the substrate accommodating position G1 by the cassette elevating device 417, and the storage position of the glass substrate 82 of the cassette 81 and the conveyance path (not shown) of the substrate conveyance belt are used. In a state where the supply positions of the glass substrates 82 are the same, the glass substrate 82 supplied from the conveyance path (not shown) such as the substrate conveyance belt is moved toward the cassette 81 to be accommodated in the cassette 81, and the cassette is used. The lifting device 41 7 and the glass substrate moving device 4 8 constitute a substrate loading mechanism. Next, the operation of the substrate housing device 416 having such a configuration will be described with reference to Fig. 20. Further, in Fig. 20, the arrow "+" is the moving direction of the card, and the arrow "=>" is the supply direction of the glass substrate. As shown in Fig. 20, during the storage operation of the glass substrate 82, the glass substrate 8 2 is stored in the cassette 8 1 and the cassette 8 1 located at the cassette recovery position Η 1 is collected. When the glass substrate 82 is received in the cassette 8 1 of the substrate storage position G1, the cassette 81 located at the substrate housing position G1 is moved to the empty cassette recovery position by the cassette moving mechanism 4 1 9 . -52- (49) 1272229 On the other hand, with this movement, the cassette 81 at the cassette supply position F1 can be moved to the empty substrate storage position G1. At this time, when the cassette 81 of the substrate loading mechanism and the glass substrate moving device 418 are moved to the substrate storage position G1 at the cassette supply position F1, the glass substrate 82 is immediately placed in the card.匣 8 1. Further, during this time, an empty card 匣 8 1 is supplied to the empty card supply position F 1 . As described above, according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention, the cassette 8 1 is moved to the cassette supply position F 1 , the substrate storage position G 1 , and the cassette recovery position Η 1 by the cassette moving mechanism 4 1 9 . At one position, at the substrate accommodating position G1, the glass substrate 82 is housed in the cassette 81 which is positioned by the cassette moving mechanism 41 9 by the cassette lifting and lowering device 41 7 and the glass substrate moving unit 418 of the substrate carrying mechanism. . Therefore, the operation of accommodating the glass substrate 82 in the cassette 81 is stopped only during the movement of the cassette 81, and when the glass substrate 82 is received in the cassette 81, the cassette 81 is removed from the substrate storage position G1. Moving to the cassette recovery position Η1, and moving the cassette 81 from the cassette supply position F1 to the substrate storage position G1, the flow time of the storage operation of the glass substrate 82 can be shortened. Sixth Embodiment Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 2, and an object of the sixth embodiment of the present invention is to solve the same problem as the fifth embodiment-53-(50) 1272229. In addition, the configuration of the substrate feeding mechanism (particularly, the substrate carrying-out mechanism 16a) of the production line systems 1, 1', and 1" of the first to fourth embodiments is changed, and a substrate discharge device that can discharge a glass substrate of a thin plate-shaped material is provided. 5: 6. As shown in Fig. 2, the substrate discharge device 516 according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention has a cassette moving mechanism 519, a cassette lifting and lowering unit 517, and a glass substrate moving unit 5 1 8 . The mechanism 519 can move the cassette 81 at any of the cassette supply position φ F2, the substrate accommodating position G2, and the cassette recovery position H2. Further, the cassette supply position F2 supplies the position of the cassette 81. The cassette 81 supplied to the position is generally a cassette in which the substrate of the glass substrate 82 is accommodated. The substrate discharge position G2 is a position at which the glass substrate 82 is discharged from the cassette 81. Therefore, it is disposed at the position. The cassette 81 is for discharging the cassette of the glass substrate 82. The cassette recovery position H2 is for collecting the position of the cassette 81 that is transferred after the glass substrate 82 is discharged. Therefore, the cassette 81 recovered from the position is usually not accommodated. The empty tray of the glass substrate 82. Further, the arrangement of the cassette supply position F2, the substrate discharge position G2, and the cassette recovery position H2 are adjacent to each other and arranged in a row. As shown in Fig. 2, the cassette moves. The mechanism 519 moves the cassette 81 of the accommodated substrate supplied to the cassette supply position F2 from the cassette supply position F2 to the substrate discharge position G2. In this manner, the substrate that has been moved to the substrate discharge position G2 is accommodated. The cassette 81 is a cassette-54-(51) 1272229 that is discharging the glass substrate 82. Then, when the glass substrate 82 is discharged from the cassette 81, the cassette 81 being ejected becomes empty without the glass substrate 82. At this time, the cassette moving mechanism 519 moves the empty cassette 81 from the substrate discharge position G2 to the cassette recovery position H2. The empty cassette 8 1 located at the cassette recovery position H2 will recover the position H2 from the cassette. It is recycled. As shown above, the cassette moving mechanism 5 1 9 moves the cassette 81 of the accommodated substrate at the cassette supply position F2 from the cassette supply position F2 to the substrate row φ output position G2, and moves the cassette 81 located in the discharge of the substrate discharge position G2 to the card.匣Receiving position H2. The two types of movement of the cassette moving mechanism 519 as described above may be independent individual movements. However, the precondition is the position of the movement destination (substrate storage position G2 or cassette recovery position H2). Further, the two kinds of movements of the cassette moving mechanism 519 as described above may be related to the interlocking movement. For example, two cassettes 8 are moved at the same time to make the substrate discharge position G2 form an empty area, and at the same time, Move the φ cassette 8 1 at the cassette supply position F2 to the empty area. However, at this time, the condition for the moving destination is also that the card recovery position H2 is vacant. Further, the cassette elevating device 517 raises and lowers the cassette 81 which is positioned by the cassette moving mechanism 519 at the substrate discharge position G2 in the vertical direction (the direction of the vertical plane) in accordance with the gap corresponding to the accommodation interval of the glass substrate 82. The storage position of the glass substrate 82 of the cassette 81 (one of the plurality of storage places) and the discharge position of the glass substrate 82 on the conveyance path (not shown) such as the substrate conveyance belt are matched. -55- (52) 1272229 Further, the glass substrate moving device 518 causes the storage position of the glass substrate 82 of the cassette 81 and the conveyance path of the substrate conveyance belt by the cassette lifting device 517 at the substrate discharge position G2 (not shown) In a state in which the discharge positions of the glass substrates 82 are the same, the glass substrate 82 accommodated in the cassette 81 is moved from the cassette 81 to a conveyance path (not shown) such as a substrate conveyance belt, and the card is removed from the cassette. 8 1 discharge. Further, the cassette ejecting mechanism is constituted by the cassette elevating device 517 and the glass substrate moving unit 518. Next, the operation of the substrate discharge device 516 having such a configuration will be described with reference to Fig. 2 . Further, in Fig. 2, the arrow "">" is the moving direction of the card, and the arrow "=>" is the discharge direction of the glass substrate. As shown in Fig. 21, during the discharge operation of the glass substrate 82, the cassette 8 1 at the cassette recovery position H2 is recovered while the glass substrate 82 is being ejected from the cassette 81. When the cassette 匣 8 1 from the substrate discharge position G2 is discharged, the cassette 81 at the substrate discharge position G2 is moved to the vacant cassette recovery position H2 by the cassette moving mechanism 519. On the other hand, with this movement, the cassette 81 at the cassette supply position F2 can be moved to the empty substrate discharge position G2. At this time, when the cassette lifting device 517 and the glass substrate moving device 518 of the substrate carrying-out mechanism are moved to the substrate discharge position G2 at the cassette loading position F2, the discharge of the glass from the cassette 8 1 is immediately started. Substrate 82. In addition, an empty card 1272229 (53) 匣 8 1 is supplied to the empty card supply position F2. As described above, according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention, the cassette 8 1 is moved to any one of the cassette supply position F2, the substrate discharge position G2, and the cassette recovery position H2 by the cassette moving mechanism 51. At the substrate discharge position G2, the glass substrate 82 is discharged from the cassette 81 which is positioned by the cassette moving mechanism 51 by the cassette elevating device 517 and the glass substrate moving unit 518 of the substrate ejecting mechanism. Therefore, the operation of discharging the glass substrate 82 from the cassette 81 is stopped only during the movement of the cassette 81, and since the end of the discharge of the glass substrate 82 from the cassette 81 is completed, the cassette 8 1 is ejected from the substrate. G2 is moved to the cassette recovery position G2, and at the same time, the cassette 81 is moved from the cassette supply position F2 to the substrate discharge position G2, so that the flow time of the discharge operation of the glass substrate 82 can be shortened. Further, in the fifth and sixth embodiments, the cassette 8 1 processed by the substrate housing device 4 16 and the substrate discharge device 5 16 can be supported by a plurality of frame lines suspended between the left and right side frames. In addition to the frame-type cassette in the horizontal state, a pin type cassette in which the substrate is supported in a horizontal state by a plurality of support pins protruding in the horizontal direction from the left and right side frames may be used. Further, the substrate storage device 416 and the substrate discharge device 5 16 of the fifth and sixth embodiments are applied to the first to fourth embodiments described above, but are not limited thereto and can be widely applied. The substrate housing device that accommodates the substrate to the cassette and the substrate discharge device that discharges the substrate from the cassette. Further, the substrate storage device 4 16 and the substrate discharge device 5 16 of the fifth and sixth embodiments are described as an example in which the thin plate-shaped material accommodated in the cassette 8 1 is a glass substrate. However, In addition, as long as it is a thin plate material which can accommodate -57-(54) 1272229 in the cassette 8 1 .
