Air floatation supporting guide device with non-equal-depth throttling cavities

Abstract

The invention discloses an air floatation supporting guide device with a non-equal-depth throttling cavities. Throttling plugs are regularly arranged on an air floating working face to form non-equal-depth array throttling cavities, on the premise that the bearing and the stability of an air floating guide rail are guaranteed, the rotating rigidity of a unit area on the air floating working face can be improved. According to the device, the air floating supporting guide device which is small in size, long in cantilever length and large in torque load can be established.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of precision instruments and machinery, and in particular relates to an air bearing guide device with a non-equal depth throttling chamber. Background technique [0002] In recent years, as the advanced chip manufacturing industry gradually develops towards functional integration and volume miniaturization, the gas static pressure linear motion benchmark has become one of the key components in cutting-edge lithography machines due to its remarkable advantages such as high speed and high precision; The high-speed, high-acceleration, and high-motion-precision requirements of the diaphragm in the exposure system of the engraving machine put forward the requirements for high load-carrying capacity and high rotational stiffness of the gas-static guide rail in the gas-static linear motion benchmark; in order to avoid the linear motion mechanism from blocking Optical path or touch optical device, the diaphragm plat...
