Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vacuum pump and, more particularly, to a vacuum pump which is used when a process gas for, for example, a semiconductor manufacturing system is sucked and exhausted.
- These semiconductor devices are usually manufactured in a vacuum chamber in a high vacuum state for each process, and a vacuum pump is frequently used to evacuate the vacuum chamber.
- the semiconductor device manufacturing processes include processes in which various kinds of process gases are applied to a substrate of semiconductor, so that the vacuum pump is used not only to evacuate the vacuum chamber but also to suck and exhaust these process gases.
- process gases are sometimes introduced into the chamber in a high-temperature state to enhance the reactivity.
- process gases are cooled during exhaustion, and thereby a chemical reaction takes place to form a solid product, which may adhere and accumulate in the vacuum pump.
- silicon chloride SiCl 4
- SiCl 4 silicon chloride
- the chemical reaction of silicon chloride is promoted, and thus aluminum chloride (AlCl 3 ) is precipitated as a solid product, and adheres and accumulates in the vacuum pump.
- AlCl 3 aluminum chloride
- the chemical reaction of silicon chloride is further promoted.
- a rotor provided with a large number of rotor blades rotates at a high speed of several ten thousand revolutions per minute. If precipitates accumulate on a stator blade disposed on the inner peripheral surface of a casing of the vacuum pump, for example, a disadvantage of contact with the rotor blade may occur. Also, in some cases, the accumulated precipitates narrow a gas discharge path, which remarkably degrades the performance of vacuum pump.
- a method in which heating is performed from the outside to increase the internal temperature of vacuum pump, by which the adhesion of process gas is restrained is briefly explained with reference to a turbo-molecular pump shown in FIG. 2.
- a location at which the solid product of process gas is precipitated most easily in the turbo-molecular pump is a base 101 which has a high pressure and moreover is close to a water cooled tube 102 (for temperature control) . Therefore, the base 101 is heated by using a heater 103 so as to be kept at a high temperature.
- the conduction path of heat generated by the heater 103 is indicated by the arrow marks in FIG. 2.
- the heat generated by the heater 103 is transferred to a motor housing 106 and a pump inside substrate 104 through the base 101.
- a motor section 105 disposed in the motor housing 106 and the pump inside substrate 104 have a design limit temperature set considering reliability, the vacuum pump must be used in the setting value range of design limit temperature when the vacuum pump is operated.
- the design limit temperature of the pump inside substrate 104 is as low as 80°C.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a vacuum pump in which the accumulation of solid product is restrained by keeping a discharge path for process gas in the vacuum pump at a higher temperature than before, and a motor and a pump inside substrate are cooled effectively.
- the invention of a first aspect provides a vacuum pump including a body which has a casing and a base and is provided with a gas intake port and a gas discharging port; a rotor pivotally supported in the body so as to be rotatable; a motor for driving the rotor; a motor housing which is located in the body and is fixed to the base; gas transfer means, which is provided between the casing and the rotor, for transferring gas sucked through the gas intake port to the gas discharge port; heating means for heating a gas discharge path for the gas transferred by the gas transferring means; a pump inside substrate which is disposed in the base and the motor housing and is mounted with a predetermined circuit; and heat shutoff means for shutting off heat transfer from the base to the pump inside substrate and motor.
- the heating means is composed of, for example, a heater disposed around the base or the casing or in the vacuum pump.
- the heat shutoff means is a heat shutoff wall integrally formed at the end on the base side of the motor housing, and the motor housing is fixed to the base via the heat shutoff means.
- the heat shutoff wall has a flange portion on the end face opposite to the motor housing, and the motor housing is fixed to the base via the flange portion.
- the vacuum pump further includes cooling means for cooling the motor housing.
- the invention of a fifth aspect provides a vacuum pump including a body which has a casing and a base and is provided with a gas intake port and a gas discharging port; a rotor pivotally supported in the body so as to be rotatable; a motor for driving the rotor; a motor housing which is located in the body and is fixed to the base; gas transfer means, which is provided between the casing and the rotor, for transferring gas sucked through the gas intake port to the gas discharge port; heating means for heating a gas discharge path for the gas transferred by the gas transferring means; a pump inside substrate which is disposed in the base and the motor housing and is mounted with a predetermined circuit; and heat insulating means provided on the opposing surface of the motor housing and the base.
- the heating means is composed of, for example, a heater disposed around the base or the casing or in the vacuum pump.
- the heat insulating means is a gap or a heat insulating material.
- the vacuum pump further includes heat shutoff means for shutting off heat transfer from the base to the pump inside substrate and motor.
- the cooling means is a water cooled tube provided on the motor housing to circulate cooling water.
- the water cooled tube is provided on the motor housing so that solder or a paste material for heat conduction is additionally provided.
- the pump inside substrate disposed in the motor housing can be protected from heating caused by the heat generated by the heater. Also, by directly cooling the motor housing, the pump inside substrate can be cooled efficiently. Since the pump inside substrate can be cooled efficiently, the setting temperature of the gas discharge path in the vacuum pump can be increased as compared with the conventional vacuum pump, and thus the precipitation of solid product in the vacuum pump can be restrained.
