Abstract

The invention discloses a foreline for a vacuum pump, a vacuum system and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The foreline comprises a main pipe, a receiver and a branch pipe. The main pipe is vertically mounted. The receiver is arranged at the bottom of the main pipe and provided with an opening, and the opening and the bottom of the main pipe are in sealed connection. The branch pipe is a non-linear pipeline, one end of the branch pipe is connected with the main pipe, and the other end of the branch pipe is connected with the vacuum pump. Airflow is used for sequentially passing through the main pipe and the branch pipe to enter the vacuum pump, meanwhile the receiver is used for receiving matter falling when the airflow passes through the main pipe through the opening. The foreline has the beneficial effects that dust of the airflow carrying a large quantity of dust impurities is filtered out in the foreline, then the airflow enters the vacuum pump, the dust entering a pump bodyis reduced, the possibility of the holddown phenomenon is reduced, the continuous operation time of the vacuum pump is prolonged, the capacity is improved, and the economic cost is reduced.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of vacuum pipelines, in particular to a front-stage pipeline for a vacuum pump, a vacuum system and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Background technique

[0002] Dry vacuum pumps are widely used in many aspects because they do not use fluids such as oil, water or polymers as working media and avoid backflow. In recent years, dry vacuum pumps have developed rapidly, and their main driving forces come from the semiconductor industry, chemical industry and thin film industry. At present, the semiconductor industry has adopted a large number of dry vacuum pumps instead of oil-sealed mechanical pumps, which has greatly improved the performance and quality of products.

[0003] However, when a dry vacuum pump is used to generate a vacuum environment, if the extracted gas contains dust and other debris, the debris will enter the pump body together with the air flow and easily cause the pump to be stuck, res...
