Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a glass bottle cover assembly and, more particularly, to a cover for protecting a glass bottle containing chemicals used in a semiconductor process. Relevant state of the art
[0002] Glass bottles, which are widely used in daily life, are used in different ways depending on the properties and purpose of the contents.
[0003] A container for photoresist (light-sensitive solution) used in a semiconductor photoprocess is made of a special material containing ultraviolet (UV)-blocking ink, which utilizes the principle of light refraction angle to protect the solution's special properties. The solution inside is also expensive and is generally stored in a carefully isolated manner because it is a substance that is harmful to the human body if it leaks out.
[0004] The size of the container is usually 1 gallon (3.8 liters) and its volume and shape are standardized.
[0005] Due to the nature of the solvent, its photosensitivity is sensitive to external temperature, and it is stored in a facility with a constant temperature of 23 degrees Celsius (the general storage temperature is 4 degrees Celsius or below). In reality, it is classified as a risky and dangerous substance due to concerns about harm to the human body from cracks caused by careless handling, and handling of this substance is permitted only by authorized personnel.
[0006] In addition, there is currently growing interest in environmental protection and safety. Therefore, if a glass bottle containing chemicals breaks and a toxic substance leaks out, this can initially harm the human body of employees and negatively impact the external appearance of a semiconductor company, so there is a realistic need to respond very actively and prepare countermeasures.
[0007] Replacing the glass bottle with a plastic material is intended to improve the problems of the traditional glass bottle. However, if the container is made of plastic, the purity of a chemical solution is not fully preserved through dissolution, so the use of the glass bottle is likely to continue for a considerable period of time.
[0008] Korean Patent 10-2071399, a patent for a protective device, relates to a device for protecting a photoresist bottle used in a semiconductor exposure process. It includes a protective method that encloses the bottle externally. However, for use in an actual exposure process, the protective device must be removed to expose the bottle to the outside.
[0009] Korean Patent 10-1746779 is a patent relating to a cover assembly for protecting a chemical bottle and a cover assembly made from a glass bottle with a handle. When the cover assembly is in place, the lid of the container is torn open by an untouched ring, a closure of the chemical container is opened, and the chemicals contained therein are used. During storage of the chemicals in the chemical container, the chemical container must be resealed with the cover assembly and transported. Furthermore, there is a risk of damage during transportation of the chemical container to cover the cover assembly. This additional process poses a significant risk that may cause problems with the effective use of the cover. Detailed descriptionTechnical object

[0020] Fig. 1 illustrates a front view of a glass bottle cover assembly according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 illustrates a cross-sectional view of a glass bottle cover assembly (including a glass bottle) according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 3 illustrates an exploded view of a glass bottle cover assembly according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
[0021] As in Fig. 1 to 3, a glass bottle cover assembly 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention relates to the glass bottle cover assembly 10 for protecting a glass bottle 1 containing chemicals, and includes an upper cover 100 and a lower cover 200 configured to surround a body 50 of the glass bottle 1, a guide ring 300 configured to be attached to an upper recess portion formed in an upper portion of the outer peripheral surface of the glass bottle 1, and a closure 400 configured to open and close an opening 1000 formed at the top end of the glass bottle 1 and to simultaneously engage with a screw thread 20 of the glass bottle formed on the upper outer peripheral surface of the glass bottle 1 and a fastening portion formed in an upper portion of the outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300.to pair.,
[0022] The glass bottle cover assembly 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be the glass bottle cover assembly 10 for protecting the glass bottle 1 containing photoresist used in a semiconductor process, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0023] However, for simplicity, it is assumed that the glass bottle cover assembly 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is intended for the photoresist used in the semiconductor process.
[0024] The photoresist used in the semiconductor process has a predetermined glass bottle specification and shape, and a method for containing the photoresist in the glass bottle 1 is also standardized.
[0025] In the rough description of the method for introducing the photoresist into the glass bottle 1, the glass bottle 1 is first manufactured in a process, and then the inside and outside are washed. After washing the glass bottle 1, the empty glass bottle 1 with a partially sealed glass bottle cap is placed on a conveyor belt oriented to receive the photoresist, the cap 400 is opened with a device that holds the cap 400 of the glass bottle 1, and a hose is connected to the glass bottle 1 to fill it with 1 gallon of photoresist.
[0026] Subsequently, after the closure 400 is completely closed and sealed, a storage process is carried out until shortly before the photoresist is used in the semiconductor process.
[0027] The process itself must be carried out in a clean condition so that the photoresist can be stored in the glass bottle 1 without the risk of being contaminated or affected by other components.
[0028] In addition, the glass bottle 1 itself is exposed to the outside and is simply wrapped in a plastic bag during transportation, and there is no device to protect the glass bottle 1 from the risk of falling.
[0029] The glass bottle cover assembly 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention was invented to prevent photoresist, a chemical substance, from leaking to the outside even though the glass bottle 1 is broken during the process of containing the photoresist in the glass bottle 1 and storing, transporting, and using the same in the semiconductor process.
[0030] As in the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the glass bottle cover assembly 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention wraps the glass bottle 1 with the cover, and preferably, the cover is divided into the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200, which are combined to surround the body 50 of the glass bottle 1.
[0031] The material of the top cover 100 and the bottom cover 200 includes one of the following materials: glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), acrylic resin, polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), Teflon, and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
[0032] The top cover 100 may include a handle 110 formed on one side of the outer peripheral surface, a guide ring attachment portion 120 formed to protrude inward from the inner peripheral surface at an upper portion of the inner peripheral surface, a projection portion 130 located below the guide ring attachment portion 120 and formed to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface and contact an annular lip 35 of the glass bottle 1, a projection coupling portion 140 located below the projection portion 130 and formed to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface and contact an annular projection portion 45 of the glass bottle 1, a lid recess portion 150 formed below the projection coupling portion 140, and a top cover screw thread 160.which is formed in a lower region of the outer peripheral surface and is configured to be coupled to the lower cover 200.,
[0033] The top cover 100 may further include a groove portion (not shown) formed between the handle connecting portions to prevent deformation of the handle 110.
[0034] As in Fig. 3, the top surface of the top cover 100 is in an open state, and the guide ring attachment portion 120 may be formed to protrude inward in a region closest to the open top surface. The guide ring attachment portion 120 of the top cover 100 may be coupled to the lower outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300 to more firmly seal the glass bottle 1.
[0035] The protrusion portion 130 may be formed below the guide ring attachment portion 120, and the protrusion portion 130 may be formed in an arc shape that protrudes convexly compared to the overall shape of the upper portion of the top cap 100. The protrusion portion 130 may be a portion that is firmly connected to the annular lip 35 formed in the glass bottle 1 when the top cap 100 is inserted into the glass bottle 1.
[0036] The handle 110 may also be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the top cover 100. For example, a first connecting portion 111, where an upper portion of the handle 110 and the outer peripheral surface of the top cover 100 are connected, may be formed below the projection portion 130, and a second connecting portion 112, where a lower portion of the handle 110 and the outer peripheral surface of the top cover 100 are connected, may be formed at the projection coupling portion 140. That is, the handle 110 may be formed between the projection portion 130 and the projection coupling portion 140. The location or shape of the handle 110 is not limited thereto and can be changed in various ways depending on the shape of the cover.
[0037] As in the Fig. 1 to 3, the diameter below the projection portion 130 increases in a shape in which the cross section widens, and the projection coupling portion 140 may be formed in an associated connection portion while forming a depressed cross section like the depressed portion 150 of the cover.
[0038] The projection coupling portion 140 is a portion that is firmly coupled to the annular projection portion 45 formed in the glass bottle 1 when the top cover 100 is inserted into the glass bottle 1.
[0039] Referring to the shape of the glass bottle 1 used in the semiconductor process ( Fig. 3), the opening 1000 is formed in an upper portion, and the screw thread 20 of the glass bottle, which is configured to couple with the closure 400, is formed in the upper outer peripheral surface. In a lower portion of the glass bottle thread 20, an upper recessed portion 30 is formed with a smaller diameter than that of the opening 1000. The protruding annular lip 35 is formed in a lower portion of the upper recessed portion 30, and a lower recessed portion 40 is formed in a shape in which the diameter increases downward and then decreases rapidly.
[0040] The annular projection portion 45 is formed at the upper end of the lower recessed portion 40, and the body 50, which increases in diameter from the lower recessed portion 40 downward toward the glass bottle 1 and has the same diameter at a certain height, is formed to accommodate 1 gallon of photoresist.
[0041] The upper recessed portion 30 and the lower recessed portion 40 formed in the glass bottle 1 correspond to the space for holding the glass bottle 1 by hand or for fixing a finger when carrying the glass bottle 1, and while maintaining the shape of the existing glass bottle, the glass bottle cover assembly 10 can firmly couple with the glass bottle 1 and protect a worker from hazardous chemicals inside even if the glass bottle 1 breaks.
[0042] Furthermore, a gradient may be formed such that the diameter of the body 50 of the glass bottle 1 increases from an upper portion of the body 50 to an annular bend 55 and decreases from the annular bend 55 to a lower portion of the body 50. The annular bend 55 enables the glass bottle cover assembly 10 to couple more tightly to the glass bottle 1.
[0043] As in Fig. 2, the projection coupling portion 140 of the above-described glass bottle cover assembly 10 closely contacts the annular projection portion 45 of the glass bottle 1 and ensures that the glass bottle 1 does not move or wobble within the glass bottle cover assembly 10.
[0044] The cover recess portion 150 is formed below the protrusion coupling portion 140 and serves to support the protruding annular protrusion portion 45 of the glass bottle 1. This structure facilitates the attachment of the top cover 100 to the glass bottle 1 while preventing the attached glass bottle 1 from easily detaching from the top cover 100.
[0045] Furthermore, the upper cover screw thread 160 configured for coupling with the lower cover 200 is formed on the lower outer peripheral surface of the upper cover 100, and the upper cover screw thread 160 couples the upper cover 100 to the lower cover 200 by engaging with a lower cover screw thread 260 formed on the upper inner peripheral surface of the lower cover 200. However, without being limited thereto, a screw thread may be formed on the lower inner peripheral surface of the upper cover 100 and the upper outer peripheral surface of the lower cover 200, and the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 may be coupled accordingly.
[0046] Here, the upper cover 100 may be configured to act as a cover from the upper recessed portion 30 of the glass bottle 1 to the annular bend 55 of the glass bottle 1, and the lower cover 200 may be configured to act as a cover from the upper screw thread 160 of the upper cover 100 to the lower end of the glass bottle 1. This is not necessarily a limitation. The lower cover 200 may be configured to act as a cover from the annular bend 55 of the glass bottle 1 to the lower end of the glass bottle 1, and the upper cover 100 may be configured to act as a cover from the upper recessed portion 30 of the glass bottle 1 to the lower screw thread 260 of the lower cover 200.That is, a coupling portion between the upper screw thread 160 of the upper cover 100 and the lower screw thread 260 of the lower cover 200 may be formed to be adjacent to the annular bend 55 of the glass bottle 1.
[0047] Furthermore, the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 may be firmly connected by ultrasonic welding or another connecting member in a state where they are coupled to each other. The connecting member may preferably have a chemical resistance property.
[0048] The guide ring 300 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention prevents the intrusion of foreign matter (cleaning solution during rinsing) through the space formed between the outer peripheral surface of the glass bottle 1 and the inner peripheral surface of the top cover 100.
[0049] The Fig. 4 to 6 show perspective views and front views of a guide ring according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
[0050] As in Fig. 3, the guide ring 300 is disposed on the upper recessed portion 30 of the glass bottle 1. Preferably, the guide ring 300 is formed at the same height as the upper recessed portion 30 and shaped to abut the annular lip 35 of the glass bottle 1.
[0051] A material of the guide ring 300 may be, but is not necessarily limited to, ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). The guide ring 300 made of EPDM can be easily attached to the upper recessed portion 30 of the glass bottle 1 due to its excellent adhesion and elastic recovery force.
[0052] The guide ring 300 may also include carbon. By incorporating carbon, which is a conductor, it is possible to prevent electrification and adverse effects caused by static electricity, and it is possible to eliminate the need for a separate antistatic agent for protecting the glass bottle 1 containing chemicals from static electricity.
[0053] As in Fig. 4, the guide ring 300 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include a first attachment portion 310 formed in an upper portion of the outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300 and configured to couple with a lower portion of the inner peripheral surface of the closure 400, and a second attachment portion 320 formed in a lower portion of the outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300 and configured to couple with an upper portion of the inner peripheral surface of the top cover 100, specifically the guide ring attachment portion 120.
[0054] The guide ring 300 is fixed between the upper portion of the top cover 100 and the glass bottle 1, and between a lower portion of the cap 400 and the glass bottle 1. Specifically, the guide ring 300 can more firmly connect the top cover 100 of the glass bottle 1 and the cap 400 in such a manner that the inner side of the guide ring 300 is fixed to the upper recessed portion 30 of the glass bottle 1, the lower inner peripheral surface of the cap 400 is coupled to the first fixing portion 310 of the guide ring 300, and the upper inner peripheral surface of the top cover 100 is coupled to the second fixing portion 320 of the guide ring 300.
[0055] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the guide ring 300 is coupled between the top cover 100 of the glass bottle 1 and the closure 400, creating a filling between the top cover 100 of the glass bottle 1 and the closure 400. This eliminates the risk of foreign matter entering during rinsing.
[0056] Here, the first attachment portion 310 of the guide ring 300 may include a first protrusion portion 311 and a second protrusion portion 312 formed to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface in an arc shape compared to the overall shape of the first attachment portion 310. Here, the first protrusion portion 311 may be formed in an upper portion of the first attachment portion 310, and the second protrusion portion 312 may be formed in a lower portion of the first attachment portion 310 while being spaced apart from the first protrusion portion 311.
[0057] The second attachment portion 320 of the guide ring 300 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include an arcuate fitting groove 321 formed offset inward from the outer peripheral surface and configured to couple with the guide ring coupling portion 120 of the top cover 100.
[0058] The shape of a fixing portion formed on the outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300 is not limited thereto and may be formed in various shapes to firmly couple the top cover 100 and the inner peripheral surface of the shutter 400, depending on the diameter or shape of the fixing portion on the inner peripheral surface of the top cover 100 or the fixing portion on the inner peripheral surface of the shutter 400.
[0059] For example, as in Fig. 5, the first fastening portion 310 of a guide ring 300a may comprise a plurality of projection portions that are arcuately formed in the circumferential direction of the guide ring 300a and spaced at regular intervals in the height direction. In addition, as shown in Fig. 6, the first attachment portion 310 of a guide ring 300b may include a first line attachment portion 315 including a plurality of projection portions formed at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the guide ring 300b, a second line attachment portion 316 including a plurality of projection portions formed at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the guide ring 300b, and a third line attachment portion 317 including a plurality of projection portions formed at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the guide ring 300b.In this case, the projection portion of the second wire fixing portion 316 may be arranged at the bottom between the respective projection portion of the first wire fixing portion 315 and the projection portion of the third wire fixing portion 317 may be arranged at the bottom between the respective projection portions of the second wire fixing portion 316.
[0060] The second attachment portion 320 of the guide ring 300 according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be formed and fixed on the inner peripheral surface to cover the guide ring attachment portion 120 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the top cover 100. That is, the cover assembly according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include all various structures capable of ensuring airtightness and watertightness due to the coupling of the guide ring 300 and the top cover 100, and is not limited to only a single exemplary embodiment.
[0061] For the sake of simplicity, an embodiment in which the second fastening portion 320 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the guide ring 300 will be described below.
[0062] Fig.7 shows a perspective view, a front view and a top view of a closure according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0063] The closure 400 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a closure body 410, a protruding closure 420 integrally coupled to the closure body 410 and formed to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface in a lower portion of the outer peripheral surface of the closure 400, a first screw thread 430 formed in an upper portion of the inner peripheral surface of the closure 400, and a second screw thread 440 formed in a lower portion of the inner peripheral surface of the closure 400.
[0064] The first screw thread 430 formed in the upper part of the inner peripheral surface of the closure 400 is coupled with the glass bottle thread 20 formed in the glass bottle 1, and the second screw thread 440 formed in the lower part of the inner peripheral surface of the closure 400 is coupled with the first fastening portion 310 formed in the guide ring 300 to seal the glass bottle 1. The second screw thread 440 may not be screw-coupled with the first fastening portion 310 of the guide ring 300. Depending on the shape of the first fastening portion 310, various methods can be considered to ensure watertightness and airtightness by closely coupling the second screw thread 440 and the first fastening portion 310.
[0065] The closure 400 may further include a plurality of protrusion portions to facilitate opening and closing of the closure 400 on the outer peripheral surface of the closure body 410. Furthermore, the closure 400 may include a closure insert 450 to improve the seal between the inner surface of the upper end of the closure 400 and the upper end of the opening 1000 of the glass bottle 1. A material of the closure insert 450 may be Teflon.
