[0062] The present application provides a pipeline, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a pipeline in the present application is shown. The pipeline includes a medium pipeline 100 and a cleaning pipeline 200. Among them, the medium pipeline 100 includes a medium inlet pipe 110 and a medium outlet pipe 120, and the medium inlet pipe 110 and the medium outlet pipe 120 are connected to the functional device 130.

[0063] In an embodiment, the functional device 130 can be a device with certain functions in the process reaction process, such as gas mass flow meter, liquid mass flow meter, diaphragm valve or pressure sensor, etc.

[0064] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The solid black arrow in the figure indicates the flow direction of the process medium participating in the reaction in the pipeline in the present application. The process medium can be gas, liquid, gas-liquid mixture, gas-solid mixture, liquid-solid mixture or gas-liquid-solid mixture, etc., which is subject to the actual situation of the reaction. Process medium refers to the medium that needs to flow in the pipeline in the process, which can be a reaction medium.

[0065] The end of the medium inlet pipe 110 can be a process medium inlet 110a of the pipe, and the process medium enters the medium inlet pipe 110 from the process medium inlet 110a, passes through the functional device 130, and finally passes through the medium outlet pipe 120, and is discharged from the process medium outlet 120a at the end of the medium outlet pipe 120. It should be noted that the rear end of the medium outlet pipe 120 can also be connected to other pipes or reaction devices.

[0066] The pipe described in the present application can also include a pipe connected to the front end of the process medium inlet 110a and / or a pipe connected to the rear end of the process medium outlet 120a, both of which are within the scope of the pipe defined in the present application.

[0067] The cleaning pipe 200 includes a first cleaning inlet pipe 210, a cleaning outlet pipe 220, and a second cleaning inlet pipe 230. The end of the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 can be connected to the first cleaning inlet pipe 210, specifically through a tee pipe. Alternatively, the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 are two separate cleaning inlet pipes, and each has a cleaning medium inlet 210a. The present application takes the end of the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 connected to the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 as an example, and the medium inlet ends of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 are combined into a cleaning medium inlet 210a. The end of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 can be the cleaning medium inlet 210a, the end of the cleaning outlet pipe 220 can be the cleaning medium outlet 220a, and the cleaning medium can enter the cleaning pipe 200 from the cleaning medium inlet 210a and be discharged from the cleaning medium outlet 220a.

[0068] Referring to Figure 2 As shown, the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 can enter the medium pipe in which the functional device 130 is located from both sides of the functional device 130. The first cleaning inlet pipe 210, the second cleaning inlet pipe 230, the medium inlet pipe 110, and the medium outlet pipe 120 are connected to form a cleaning passage. The cleaning passage refers to the part of the pipe filled with cleaning medium after the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 are filled with cleaning medium. The end of the cleaning outlet pipe 220 is connected to the cleaning passage, and the other end of the cleaning outlet pipe 220 is the cleaning medium outlet 220a, so that when the pressure of the cleaning medium in the cleaning passage reaches a certain pressure, the cleaning medium in the cleaning passage is discharged. The present application takes the cleaning outlet pipe 220 connected to the medium outlet pipe 120 as an example for description.

[0069] The pipeline in the application is also provided with first stop devices, which are distributed on the medium inlet pipe 110, the medium outlet pipe 120 and the cleaning outlet pipe 220. Among them, the first stop device distributed on the medium inlet pipe 110 is located on the side of the process medium inlet 110a of the connection point of the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 and the medium inlet pipe 110; the first stop device distributed on the medium outlet pipe 120 is located on the side of the process medium outlet 120a of the connection point of the cleaning outlet pipe 220 and the medium outlet pipe 120; and the first stop device distributed on the cleaning outlet pipe 220 can be located at any position of the cleaning outlet pipe 220, including the end of the cleaning outlet pipe 220 connected with the medium outlet pipe 120.

[0070] When the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 are connected with the cleaning medium, the first stop devices cut off the medium inlet pipe 110, the medium outlet pipe 120 and the cleaning outlet pipe 220, at this time, the cleaning channel is gradually connected with the cleaning medium, and the pressure of the cleaning medium inside the cleaning channel gradually increases. When the pressure of the cleaning medium gradually increases, the first stop device on the cleaning outlet pipe 220 can be opened, and the cleaning outlet pipe 220 is in a flow-through state to discharge the cleaning medium in the cleaning channel.

[0071] The cleaning medium can enter the functional device 130 from both sides of the functional device 130 in the pipeline, and the functional device 130 can be bidirectionally cleaned, and the bilateral entry can more quickly increase the pressure in the functional device 130. The application changes the path of the cleaning medium flow by pipeline design, so that the functional device 130 to be cleaned can be bidirectionally cleaned, and the flow and cleaning efficiency of the cleaning medium are improved.

[0072] After the cleaning medium enters the cleaning from two directions of the functional device 130 and reaches a certain pressure difference, the cleaning outlet pipe 220 is opened and in a flow-through state, the pressure of the cleaning medium near the functional device 130 is greater than the pressure at the cleaning medium outlet 220a, under the action of the pressure difference, the cleaning gas flows into the cleaning outlet pipe 220, and is finally discharged from the cleaning medium outlet 220a. Moreover, the bidirectional blowing of the cleaning medium makes the pressure of the cleaning medium in the functional device 130 relatively large, the pressure difference between the cleaning medium in the functional device 130 and the pressure at the cleaning medium outlet 220a is large, the outflow speed of the cleaning medium from the functional device 130 to the cleaning medium outlet 220a is improved, the cleaning medium has stronger washing capacity for the inner wall of the functional device 130 and the medium pipeline 100, the cleaning efficiency is improved, and the cleaning effect is also improved.

[0073] In some possible embodiments, a second stop device is further arranged on the pipeline. The second stop device can be arranged on the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230. When the cleaning operation ends, the second stop device can stop the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230, and the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 stop supplying the cleaning medium to the functional device 130. At this time, the first stop device located on the cleaning outlet pipe 220 can remain in the stop state, and the first stop device located on the medium inlet pipe 110 and the medium outlet pipe 120 can be closed to be in the flow-through state. The cleaning operation ends, the medium pipeline 100 is connected, and the process medium can be input to the rear-end equipment.

[0074] In an embodiment, the second stop device can be arranged only on the first cleaning inlet pipe 210. The second stop device is arranged on the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 between the cleaning medium inlet 210a and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230. After the second stop device is opened, the cleaning medium cannot enter the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 in the rear section.

[0075] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, Figures 1-3 As shown in FIG. 1, a first three-way valve 300 is further arranged on the pipeline. The first three-way valve 300 is connected to the medium inlet pipe 110, and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 is connected to the medium inlet pipe 110 through the first three-way valve 300. The first three-way valve 300 can include three valve ports, i.e., a first valve port 320, a second valve port 330, and a first stop valve port 310. The first three-way valve 300 is connected to the medium inlet pipe 110 through the first valve port 320 and the second valve port 330. When the first valve port 320 and the second valve port 330 connected to the medium inlet pipe 110 are in the connected state, the process medium can pass through the first three-way valve 300 and flow through the medium inlet pipe 110.

[0076] The first stop valve port 310 is connected to the end of the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 for connecting to the medium inlet pipe 110. The first stop valve port 310 can be in the stop state when the medium does not need to flow through, and can be switched to the flow-through state when the medium needs to flow through.

[0077] In the embodiment, the first valve port 320 and the second valve port 330 of the first three-way valve 300, which are other than the first stop valve port 310, can be always-open valve ports. The always-open valve ports always remain in the flow-through state and can not have the stop function.

[0078] The second stop device located on the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 can include the first stop valve port 310, which can stop the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 when the cleaning operation ends, and the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 stops supplying the cleaning medium to the medium inlet pipe.

[0079] Alternatively, the first valve port 320 can be a valve port with a shut-off function, and the shut-off functions of the first valve port 320 and the first shut-off valve port 310 can be independently controlled. The first shut-off device located on the medium inlet pipe 110 can include the first valve port 320 with a shut-off function.

[0080] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 1-3 As shown, a second three-way valve 400 is further provided on the pipeline, and the second three-way valve 400 is communicated on the medium outlet pipe 120. Similar to the first three-way valve 300, the second three-way valve 400 can include three valve ports, which are a third valve port 420, a fourth valve port 430, and a second shut-off valve port 410. The second three-way valve 400 is communicated on the medium outlet pipe 120 through the third valve port 420 and the fourth valve port 430. When the third valve port 420 and the fourth valve port 430 that communicate the medium outlet pipe 120 are both in a communication state, the medium can pass through the second three-way valve 400 and flow in the medium outlet pipe 120.

[0081] Among the three valve ports of the second three-way valve 400, one is the second shut-off valve port 410, and the second shut-off valve port 410 is communicated with one end of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210. Specifically, the second shut-off valve port 410 is communicated with the end of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 that is used to be connected with the medium outlet pipe 120. Among them, the second shut-off valve port 410 can be in a shut-off state when the medium does not need to flow, and can be switched to a flow state when the medium needs to flow.

[0082] In the embodiment, among the third valve port 420 and the fourth valve port 430 of the second three-way valve 400 other than the second shut-off valve port 410, the third valve port 420 and the fourth valve port 430 can both be always-open valve ports that always maintain a flow state and can not have a shut-off function.

[0083] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 1-3 As shown, a third three-way valve 500 is further provided on the pipeline, and the third three-way valve 500 is communicated on the medium outlet pipe 120 and located on the side of the second three-way valve 400 away from the functional device 130. Similar to the first three-way valve 300 and the second three-way valve 400, the third three-way valve 500 can include three valve ports, which are a fifth valve port 520, a sixth valve port 530, and a third shut-off valve port 510. The third three-way valve 500 is communicated on the medium outlet pipe 120 through the fifth valve port 520 and the sixth valve port 530. When the fifth valve port 520 and the sixth valve port 530 that communicate the medium outlet pipe 120 are both in a communication state, the medium can pass through the second three-way valve 400 and flow in the medium outlet pipe 120.

[0092] It should be noted that in all the corresponding drawings of the present application, when the valve port of the valve is a blank triangle, it means that the valve port is in the flow state. When the valve port of the valve is a black filled triangle, it means that the valve port is in the closed state.

And, the bidirectional blowing of the cleaning medium makes the pressure of the cleaning medium in the function device 130 relatively large, the pressure difference between the pressure of the cleaning medium in the function device 130 and the pressure at the cleaning medium outlet 220a is large, the outflow speed of the cleaning medium from the function device 130 to the cleaning medium outlet 220a is improved, the cleaning ability of the cleaning medium to the inner wall of the function device 130 and the medium pipeline 100 is stronger, and the cleaning efficiency and the cleaning effect are improved.

[0095] In an embodiment, the inlet and outlet of the cleaning medium can be reciprocated multiple times to clean the function device 130 more thoroughly.

[0096] It should be noted that the function device 130 described in the embodiment can be a separate single device or a plurality of devices connected in series.

[0097] In a possible implementation, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the pipeline can include a plurality of medium pipelines 100, each of which includes a medium inlet pipe 110, a function device 130 and a medium outlet pipe 120 connected in communication.

[0098] Among them, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the embodiment takes three medium pipelines 100 as an example, and the three medium pipelines 100 have three medium inlet pipes 110, each of which has a process medium inlet 110a to form the pipeline structure of the three process medium inlets 110a in the embodiment, as shown. Figure 4

[0099] The process medium flowing into the three process medium inlets 110a can be different, so that three kinds of process medium can flow in at the same time. Alternatively, the three process medium inlets 110a can also flow in the same process medium.

[0100] In the embodiment, a first stop valve 600 is arranged on each of the three medium inlet pipes 110 to control whether the medium flows in each of the medium inlet pipes 110.

[0101] ​​In this embodiment, the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 is further divided into 3 ports, which are respectively connected to the first shut-off valve port 310 of the first three-way valve 300 provided on the 3 media inlet pipes 110. The cleaning medium can enter the corresponding media inlet pipe 110 through the second cleaning inlet pipe 230.

[0102] In one embodiment, see [reference] Figure 5 As shown, in the multiple media pipelines 100, this embodiment takes 3 media pipelines 100 as an example. One end of the 3 media inlet pipes 110 can be converged into a process media inlet 110a to form a pipeline with only 1 process media inlet 110a.

[0103] In this embodiment, it can be as follows: Figure 5 As shown, each of the three medium inlet pipes 110 is equipped with a first shut-off valve 600. The first shut-off valve 600 on each medium inlet pipe 110 controls whether the medium flows through its respective medium inlet pipe 110.

[0104] In one embodiment, see [reference] Figure 6 As shown, a first shut-off valve 600 can be installed on the pipeline where the three medium inlet pipes 110 converge, so as to simultaneously control whether the medium flows in the three medium inlet pipes 110.

[0105] In one embodiment, see [reference] Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the three media pipelines 100 have three media outlet pipes 120. The three media outlet pipes 120 converge to the process media outlet 120a of one of the media outlet pipes 120, and the process media in the three media outlet pipes 120 can be discharged from the process media outlet 120a.

[0106] See Figure 4 As shown, the three medium outlet pipes 120 can be divided into a first medium outlet pipe 121 and a second medium outlet pipe 122, with one end of the second medium outlet pipe 122 connected to the first medium outlet pipe 121. Specifically, the process medium outlet 120a of the medium pipeline 100 is the medium outlet end of the first medium outlet pipe 121. The two second medium outlet pipes 122 converge into the first medium outlet pipe 121, and the process medium can be discharged through the process medium outlet 120a of the first medium outlet pipe 121.

[0107] In this embodiment, a second shut-off valve 700 can be installed on the medium outlet pipe 120 between the convergence point 120b of the first medium outlet pipe 121 and the second medium outlet pipe 122. One second shut-off valve 700 can simultaneously control whether the medium in the three medium outlet pipes 120 flows out from the process medium outlet 120a.

[0108] In this embodiment, see Figure 4As shown, the convergence point 120b of the first medium outlet pipe 121 and the second medium outlet pipe 122 can be located on the pipeline between the functional device 130 and the second three-way valve 400. Alternatively, referring to Figure 5 As shown, the convergence point 120b can be located on the pipeline between the second three-way valve 400 and the third three-way valve 500. Alternatively, referring to Figure 6 As shown, the convergence point 120b can be located on the pipeline between the third three-way valve 500 and the second stop valve 700.

[0109] The third valve port 420 and the fourth valve port 430 of the second three-way valve 400 are both in a normally open state, and the fifth valve port 520 and the sixth valve port 530 of the third three-way valve 500 are both in a normally open state. The specific location of the convergence point 120b can be not limited when the convergence point 120b is kept between the functional device 130 and the second stop valve 700.

[0110] For example, referring to Figure 7 As shown, two second medium outlet pipes 122 converge into the first medium outlet pipe 121, and the three medium outlet pipes 120 can have two convergence points 120b. The convergence point 120b of the second medium outlet pipe 122 corresponding to the leftmost functional device 130 and the first medium outlet pipe 121 corresponding to the rightmost functional device 130 is located on the pipeline between the third three-way valve 500 and the second stop valve 700, and the convergence point 120b of the second medium outlet pipe 122 corresponding to the middle functional device 130 and the first medium outlet pipe 121 corresponding to the rightmost functional device 130 is located on the pipeline between the second three-way valve 400 and the third three-way valve 500.

[0111] Alternatively, the positions of the two convergence points 120b can be interchanged. The two convergence points 120b can be arranged on the pipeline between the functional device 130 and the second three-way valve 400, on the pipeline between the second three-way valve 400 and the third three-way valve 500, and on the pipeline between the third three-way valve 500 and the second stop valve 700.

[0112] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 As shown, the pipeline has a plurality of medium inlet pipes 110, for example Figure 8 As shown, the three medium inlet pipes 110, the three medium outlet pipes 120 converge into the process medium outlet 120a of one of the medium outlet pipes 120, and the process medium in the three medium outlet pipes 120 can be discharged from one process medium outlet 120a.

[0113] A second shut-off valve 700 can be installed on the media outlet 120 between the process medium outlet 120a and the confluence point 120b of the three media outlet pipes 120. This second shut-off valve 700 simultaneously controls whether the media in the three media outlet pipes 120 flows out of the process medium outlet 120a. When the second shut-off valve 700 is closed and the third shut-off valve port 510 of the third three-way valve 500 is open, the clean media in the three media outlet pipes 120 can be discharged from the media outlet pipes 120.

[0114] In one embodiment, each of the three media outlet pipes 120 is equipped with a third shut-off valve 710. Each third shut-off valve 710 can independently control whether the media flows through each media outlet pipe 120, thereby better controlling the flow of process media and cleaning media within each media outlet pipe 120. Different functional devices 130 can be cleaned with different cleaning media. The third shut-off valves 710 can prevent crosstalk between different cleaning media in multiple functional devices 130, causing secondary contamination. For example, some functional devices 130 require corrosion-resistant cleaning media, while others require oxidizing cleaning media. Oxidizing cleaning media cannot enter functional devices 130 that require corrosion resistance.

[0115] In one embodiment, a second three-way valve 400 and a third three-way valve 500 are connected to the first medium outlet pipe 121. The second shut-off valve port 410 of the second three-way valve 400 can be connected to one end of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210. The third shut-off valve port 510 of the third three-way valve 500 can be connected to one end of the cleaning outlet pipe 220.

[0116] In some possible implementations, see [reference] Figure 9 As shown, the pipeline may include multiple media pipelines 100, each of which includes a media inlet pipe 110, a functional device 130, and a media outlet pipe 120 that are connected to each other.

[0117] Among them, see Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment uses three media pipelines 100 as an example. Each of the three media pipelines 100 has three media inlet pipes 110, and each media inlet pipe 110 has a process media inlet 110a, forming the configuration described in this embodiment. Figure 4 The pipeline structure of the three process medium inlets 110a is shown.

[0118] The process media flowing into the three process media inlets 110a can all be different, allowing three different process media to flow in simultaneously. Alternatively, the same process media can flow into the three process media inlets 110a.

[0119] In this embodiment, each of the three medium inlet pipes 110 is provided with a first shut-off valve 600 to control whether medium flows in each medium inlet pipe 110.

[0120] In the embodiment, the medium outlet pipe 120 has multiple, and the embodiment takes three medium outlet pipes 120 as an example. The three medium outlet pipes 120 can be divided into a first medium outlet pipe 121 and a second medium outlet pipe 122. One end of the second medium outlet pipe 122 is communicated to the first medium outlet pipe 121. Specifically, the process medium outlet 120a of the medium pipeline 100 is the medium outlet end of the first medium outlet pipe 121. The two second medium outlet pipes 122 converge to the first medium outlet pipe 121, and the process medium can be discharged through the process medium outlet 120a of the first medium outlet pipe 121.

[0121] In the embodiment, the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 is further divided into three interfaces to be communicated with the first stop valve port 310 of the first three-way valve 300 arranged on the three medium inlet pipes 110, respectively. The cleaning medium can enter the corresponding medium inlet pipe 110 through the second cleaning inlet pipe 230.

[0122] In the embodiment, the first medium outlet pipe 121 has two, and the medium outlet end of the second medium outlet pipe 122 is connected to one of the first medium outlet pipes 121. The two first medium outlet pipes 121 have two process medium outlets 120a, so that the pipeline has two process medium outlets. The pipeline described in the application can transport reaction medium for two reaction walls in a semiconductor device.

[0123] In the embodiment, the number of the first cleaning inlet pipe 210 can be the same as the number of the first medium outlet pipe 121. The first cleaning inlet pipe 210 can have two, and the medium outlet end of the two first cleaning inlet pipes 210 is connected to the two first medium outlet pipes 121, respectively. In the embodiment, the two first medium outlet pipes 121 can be communicated only through the cleaning pipeline 200. As shown in Figure 9 The left and right first medium outlet pipes 121 are communicated through the first cleaning inlet pipe 210, the second cleaning inlet pipe 230 and the cleaning outlet pipe 220, and the two first cleaning inlet pipes 210 respectively introduce cleaning medium into the two first medium outlet pipes 121.

[0124] In an embodiment, the medium inlet end of the multiple first cleaning inlet pipes 210 can converge into a pipeline, so that the cleaning pipeline 200 has only one cleaning medium inlet 210a, and only one cleaning medium input device can be provided to provide cleaning medium for the multiple first cleaning inlet pipes 210.

[0125] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 9 The cleaning outlet pipe 220 can include multiple cleaning sub-outlet pipes, and one end of the multiple cleaning sub-outlet pipes is communicated with the cleaning passage formed by the multiple first medium outlet pipes 121.

In this embodiment, one end of the first cleaning sub-outlet pipe 221 is connected to the third shut-off valve port 510 provided on the left side of the first cleaning sub-outlet pipe 221. One end of the second cleaning sub-outlet pipe 222 is connected to the cleaning passage formed by the remaining portion of the first medium outlet pipe 121. In this embodiment, one end of the second cleaning sub-outlet pipe 222 is connected to the third shut-off valve port 510 provided on the right side of the first cleaning sub-outlet pipe 221.

[0127] In one embodiment, the multiple cleaning sub-outlets can be multiple independent pipelines, each of which can have a cleaning medium outlet 220a, so that there are multiple cleaning medium outlets 220a in the pipeline, and the negative pressure of the multiple cleaning medium outlets 220a is lower, so as to improve the discharge rate of the cleaning medium.

[0128] In one embodiment, see [reference] Figure 9 As shown, the first cleaning sub-outlet pipe 221 and the second cleaning sub-outlet pipe 222 converge at one end toward the cleaning medium outlet 220a to form a pipeline. The end of the first cleaning sub-outlet pipe 221 toward the cleaning medium outlet 220a can be connected to the second cleaning sub-outlet pipe 222. The cleaning medium outlet 220a of the entire pipeline is the medium outlet of the second cleaning sub-outlet pipe 222.

[0129] In some possible implementations, see [reference] Figure 10 As shown, the pipeline also includes a negative pressure device 800, which is connected to one end of the medium outlet of the clean outlet pipe 220. Specifically, the negative pressure device 800 is connected to the clean medium outlet 220a of the clean outlet pipe 220, and the negative pressure device 800 can extract the clean medium in the clean outlet pipe 220 when the first shut-off device on the clean outlet pipe 220 is closed.

[0130] The negative pressure device 800 is a device that can reduce the pressure inside the clean outlet pipe 220, such as a negative pressure pump.

When the first cleaning inlet pipe and the second cleaning inlet pipe are two separate pipelines, a check valve is provided on both the first cleaning inlet pipe and the second cleaning inlet pipe.
