[Prior Art] In the manufacturing process of, for example, a liquid crystal television, the glass substrate is processed into a liquid crystal panel through various steps. In the movement between the steps of the glass substrate, a container called a cassette is used, and the container is capable of accommodating a plurality of glass substrates in a horizontal state at intervals in the vertical direction. v The substrate picking and feeding machine is disposed between the cassette and the processing device in each step, receives the glass substrate from the cassette, and delivers the received glass substrate to the processing device. Then, when the processing of the glass substrate is completed by the processing device, the glass substrate is received from the processing device, and the received glass substrate is delivered to the cassette (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Specifically, the base plate conveyor (substrate conveying device) disclosed in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2006-335518 has a hand, a conveyor belt, and an intermediate conveyor. The hand can be moved in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, and a glass substrate can be transferred between the hand and the processing device. The transfer belt and the intermediate transfer belt are taught by a glass substrate between the transfer belt and the cassette, and the glass substrate is moved from one of the hand and the conveyor belt to the other during the conveyance. In the rear substrate conveyor. The interval between the substrate conveyor and the cassette is constant. When the interval is wide, the warpage of the glass substrate that is received and delivered may not be smooth between the substrate conveyor and the cassette. 319819 5 13 , 43354 Λ == The acceptance of the line substrate. (4) Yes, it is possible to arbitrarily set i : (4) (4) to send the machine' and use the interval between the substrate transfer device and the respective boxes of the plurality of plates and the glass plate to be set to be more complicated. In the substrate transfer machine of the above publication, the intermediate transfer belt is arranged more and more complicated. In particular, the intermediate conveyor belt is empty.

The contact mode is supported. On the other hand, the suction cup 5 is attached to the rain side of the glass substrate 6 with respect to 3: from the lower side; 319819 13 1343354, which is transferred to the support device 5, as shown in the eighth As shown in Fig. 9 and Fig. 9, the mobile station 32 is moved to the position on the most (four) box (7) side of the platform 26, and the end of the duct 38 of the support device S is disposed in the vicinity of the cassette QS. Further, as the mobile station 32 moves, the glass substrate tray/support area-moving to the box is the end of the glass substrate g, which is also disposed near the cassette GS. Thereafter, as shown in Fig. 10 and the figure, the sub-way 48 is moved to the position on the main road 46 which is closest to the side of the further cassette GS. As the auxiliary substrate moves, the glass substrate G moves relative to the support region and moves toward the cassette GS side, and then one of the glass substrates G passes over the end (front end) of the support region to enter the cassette GS. Inside. In the cassette GS, a cassette supporting device 60 for receiving a glass substrate is disposed, and the cassette supporting device 6 supports a part of the glass substrate G which enters the cassette GS. The substrate supporting device for the cassette is constituted by, for example, an air floating device. Xin, as shown in Figures 12 and 13, the suction cup 5 is moved to the position closest to the side of the cassette GS. As the suction cup % moves, the glass substrate G moves relative to the support region and moves toward the cassette GS side. Finally, the entire glass substrate G enters the left GS and is supported by the S-box substrate support device 60. Supported. Then, by slightly raising the 匣i GS, the chuck 50 is detached from the glass substrate g, and the glass substrate G is delivered to the cassette GS. The above describes the case where the glass substrate G is transferred from the processing apparatus PM side to the g-box GS side. When the glass substrate g accommodated in the cassette Gs is received and transported to 319819 14 1343354 .4 and delivered to the processing apparatus PM, the above sequence may be reversed. According to the above-described substrate transfer machine, when the glass substrate G is transferred between the cassette and the cassette GS, the mobile unit 32 is positioned on the side of the cassette, and accordingly, the extension of the support area which is more prominent than the movement 32 is close to the cassette. Box gs. Therefore, the interval between the cassette GS and the support area is shortened, and the embossing of the glass substrate G received and delivered between the support area and the E-box GS is prevented. As a result, according to the substrate transfer machine, the substrate G can be smoothly transferred between the charm boxes Gs. In the above-described substrate transfer machine, the support device s is only provided with a configuration, and the substrate (four) is a single device. In particular, in the substrate transfer machine, the piping for supplying compressed air to the air pipe is simple. The present invention is not limited to the above-described deformation. Palladium-shaped carcinoma can be used in various ways. In the embodiment, the support device $ is air-floating or can be used as a non-contact Fangmei' ultrasonic floating device. Or, the name of the wheel is the roller column of the glass substrate G. The roller row is defined by a plurality of rollers supporting the glass substrate G, and the roller is made to be rotatable and fixed by the child. At this time, Ding. The roller row is also used as a moving device. In one embodiment, the substrate is moved by two hands, but the hands and the fingers are spaced apart from each other. P Η can also be just! One. 319819 15 1343354 However, if there is a 21-handed part H, the glass substrate G is received from the side of the processing apparatus by the hand of the side, and the glass substrate G previously placed on the other hand can be delivered to the glass substrate G. Processing device (10). That is, during the processing of the glass substrate G by the user equipment, the (4) box gs receives the glass substrate G to be processed, and the iU (4) broken county plate G is pre-loaded on the crucible. Thereby, the transport time of the glass substrate G is reduced, and the productivity of the liquid crystal television is improved. Further, even if there are two hand portions η, since the supporting device s is disposed only on the moving table 32, the configuration of the air pipe or the like does not become complicated. Finally, the substrate transfer machine of the present invention can also be applied to a production system such as a t-poly TV, and can of course be applied to a substrate other than the glass substrate G. That is, the opposing machine for transferring the substrate to each other by the substrate transfer machine is not limited to the processing device or the PCT box.
