Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a support device for workpieces such as semiconductor substrates and liquid crystal substrates, and relates to a workpiece support device that uses gas to suspend the workpiece so that it can be transported without damage or defect. Background technique
[0002] In the production process such as the field of precision equipment, even a small scratch or stain on the workpiece will become a cause of failure, so it is not allowed, so it is generally carried out by using gas to support the workpiece in a non-contact state. mode of delivery.
[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses an air-suspension conveying device. However, the air-suspension conveying device sprays air from an air-suspension unit disposed below the flat substrate to suspend the flat substrate and move it forward using a feeding mechanism. Near the downstream end of the air suspension unit at the front end of the conveying direction of the flat s...
