Description

本発明は、例えば、第1ブロックを第2ブロックに固定するブロック固定構造及びその固定構造を用いた集積弁に関する。   The present invention relates to, for example, a block fixing structure for fixing a first block to a second block and an integrated valve using the fixing structure.

半導体製造のウェハ処理工程には、ホトレジスト加工(ホトレジスト塗布、露光、現像、エッチング)のエッチング等にガスが使用され、数種類の中から特定のプロセスガスをチャンバへ供給するためのガス供給回路が構成されている。ガス供給回路は、ガスの種類に従ってガス供給ラインが構成され、各ガスをマスフローコントローラ等の流体制御機器を介してチャンバへと送り込むようにしている。また、ガスは腐食性、毒性があるため、窒素ガス等のパージガスを使用してガスの置換を行い、更にはガスの排気処理を行うため、そのガス供給ラインにはパージガス供給ラインやベントラインが組み合わされている。   Gas is used for wafer processing in semiconductor manufacturing, such as etching for photoresist processing (photoresist coating, exposure, development, etching), etc., and a gas supply circuit for supplying a specific process gas from several types to the chamber is configured. Has been. In the gas supply circuit, a gas supply line is configured according to the type of gas, and each gas is sent into the chamber via a fluid control device such as a mass flow controller. In addition, since gas is corrosive and toxic, purge gas such as nitrogen gas is used for gas replacement, and further gas exhaust processing is performed, so the gas supply line has a purge gas supply line and a vent line. It is combined.

従って、ガス供給ラインは、プロセスガスやパージガスの流れ或いは排気を制御するため、図6に示すように複数の弁やマスフローコントローラ等の流体制御機器が必要であり、これらガス供給ラインを構成する流体制御機器101〜108は、設置面積のコンパクト化や流路長さの短縮などの観点から全体取付のユニット化が図られている。そうしたガス供給ユニット100は、ガス供給ラインを構成する流体制御機器101〜108が一つの取付板110上に一列に並べられ、取付板110上に固定される流路ブロック121〜128を介して取り付けられている。流路ブロック121〜128には、122に断面図で示すように、V字型の流路が形成されている。流路ブロック121〜128は、127に示すように、取付板110にボルト130で固定されている。   Therefore, in order to control the flow or exhaust of the process gas or purge gas, the gas supply line requires a plurality of valves and a fluid control device such as a mass flow controller as shown in FIG. 6, and the fluid constituting the gas supply line The control devices 101 to 108 are unitized as a whole from the viewpoint of compacting the installation area and shortening the flow path length. Such a gas supply unit 100 is attached via flow path blocks 121 to 128 in which fluid control devices 101 to 108 constituting a gas supply line are arranged in a line on one attachment plate 110 and fixed on the attachment plate 110. It has been. In the flow path blocks 121 to 128, V-shaped flow paths are formed as shown in a sectional view at 122. The flow path blocks 121 to 128 are fixed to the mounting plate 110 with bolts 130 as indicated by 127.

図7は、従来のブロック固定構造を示す図である。
流路ブロック127には、大径部131に段部132を介して連なる小径部133が形成されている。小径部133は、内径がボルト130の頭部より小径であって軸部より大径になるように設定され、スペーサ134をはめ込まれている。スペーサ134と段部132との間には、ゴムワッシャ135が配設され、スペーサ134の端部を取付板110に突き当てるまでボルト130を取付板110に締め付けることにより、ゴムワッシャ135を軸方向に押し潰して弾性変形させている。流路ブロック127は、ゴムワッシャ135の弾圧力によって取付板110側に付勢され、がたつかない(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。
FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a conventional block fixing structure.
The flow path block 127 has a small-diameter portion 133 that is continuous with the large-diameter portion 131 via the step portion 132. The small-diameter portion 133 is set so that the inner diameter is smaller than the head of the bolt 130 and larger than the shaft portion, and a spacer 134 is fitted therein. A rubber washer 135 is disposed between the spacer 134 and the stepped portion 132. By tightening the bolt 130 to the mounting plate 110 until the end of the spacer 134 abuts against the mounting plate 110, the rubber washer 135 is axially moved. It is crushed and elastically deformed. The flow path block 127 is urged toward the mounting plate 110 by the elastic pressure of the rubber washer 135 and does not rattle (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特開平11−94098号公報(段落0040〜0043、第3図)JP-A-11-94098 (paragraphs 0040-0043, FIG. 3)

しかしながら、従来のブロック固定構造は、スペーサ134の一端にゴムワッシャ135を装着してから、スペーサ134の他端を流路ブロック127の小径部133に嵌め入れた後、ボルト130を流路ブロック127の大径部131からスペーサ134へと貫き通して取付板110に締め付けなければならず、組立に手間がかかっていた。   However, in the conventional block fixing structure, after attaching the rubber washer 135 to one end of the spacer 134, the other end of the spacer 134 is fitted into the small diameter portion 133 of the flow path block 127, and then the bolt 130 is attached to the flow path block 127. The large-diameter portion 131 must be penetrated from the large-diameter portion 131 to the spacer 134 and fastened to the mounting plate 110, which requires time and effort.

また、従来のブロック固定構造は、スペーサ134の内径がボルト130の軸部の径より大きく、すきまばめされている。そのため、ボルト130の軸部の径が最小公差H1−aであり、スペーサ134の内径が最大公差H2+aである場合、ブロック固定構造全体の公差が2aとなる。ボルト130は、スペーサ134に挿通されているだけなので、ボルト130をスペーサ134の中心に挿通する位置出しをしにくく、流路ブロック127が取付板110に対して位置ずれして固定される可能性がある。流路ブロック127の固定位置がずれると、他の流路ブロックや流体制御機器と流路を接続しにくくなったり、流路接続部分のシール性を十分に確保できないおそれがある。そのため、従来のブロック固定構造は、治具を用いて流路ブロック127を取付板110に位置決めし、ボルト130を締結しており、組立作業に手間がかかっていた。   Further, in the conventional block fixing structure, the inner diameter of the spacer 134 is larger than the diameter of the shaft portion of the bolt 130 and is fitted with a clearance. Therefore, when the diameter of the shaft portion of the bolt 130 is the minimum tolerance H1-a and the inner diameter of the spacer 134 is the maximum tolerance H2 + a, the tolerance of the entire block fixing structure is 2a. Since the bolt 130 is only inserted through the spacer 134, it is difficult to position the bolt 130 through the center of the spacer 134, and the flow path block 127 may be displaced with respect to the mounting plate 110 and fixed. There is. If the fixing position of the flow path block 127 is shifted, it may be difficult to connect the flow path to another flow path block or fluid control device, or the sealability of the flow path connection portion may not be sufficiently secured. For this reason, in the conventional block fixing structure, the flow path block 127 is positioned on the mounting plate 110 using a jig and the bolt 130 is fastened, which takes time for assembly work.

そこで、本発明は、上記問題点を解決するためになされたものであり、ブロックとベース部材を簡単かつ正確に位置合わせして組み立てることができるブロック固定構造及び集積弁を提供することを目的とする。   Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a block fixing structure and an integrated valve that can be assembled by simply and accurately aligning a block and a base member. To do.

本発明に係るブロック固定構造は、上記目的を達成するために以下の構成を有する。
(1)ブロックに挿通したボルトをベース部材に締め付けて、ブロックをベース部材に固定するブロック固定構造において、ボルトが、頭部とネジ部との間に、外径が頭部の径より小さく且つネジ部の径より大きい円柱部を設けられ、ブロックが、円柱部を挿通される貫通孔の一端開口部に貫通孔の径より大きい径を有する大径部を形成され、円周方向に所定幅を有する環状をなし、貫通孔と大径部を連ねる段部と、ボルトの頭部との間で押し潰されて変形する環状部材を有することを特徴とする。
The block fixing structure according to the present invention has the following configuration in order to achieve the above object.
(1) In a block fixing structure in which a bolt inserted into a block is fastened to a base member and the block is fixed to the base member, the bolt has an outer diameter smaller than the diameter of the head between the head and the screw portion and A cylindrical portion larger than the diameter of the screw portion is provided, and the block is formed with a large diameter portion having a diameter larger than the diameter of the through hole at one end opening portion of the through hole inserted through the cylindrical portion, and has a predetermined width in the circumferential direction. It is characterized by having an annular member that is deformed by being crushed between a step portion connecting the through hole and the large diameter portion and a head portion of the bolt.

(2)(1)に記載の発明において、環状部材は、頭部に当接する端面に、外側面から内側面に向かって傾斜するテーパ面を形成されていることを特徴とする。 (2) In the invention described in (1), the annular member is characterized in that a tapered surface that is inclined from the outer surface toward the inner surface is formed on an end surface that contacts the head.

また、本発明に係る集積弁は、上記目的を達成するために以下の構成を有する。
(3)(1)又は(2)に記載のブロック固定構造を有するものであって、ブロックが流路ブロックであり、ベース部材が取付板又は取付レールであることを特徴とする。
Moreover, the integrated valve which concerns on this invention has the following structures, in order to achieve the said objective.
(3) The block fixing structure according to (1) or (2) is provided, wherein the block is a flow path block, and the base member is a mounting plate or a mounting rail.

上記構成を有する本発明のブロック固定構造は、ボルトの円柱部をブロックの貫通孔に挿通し、円柱部とネジ部との間の段差部分をベース部材に突き当てるまでネジ部をベース部材にねじ込むと、環状部材がボルトの頭部とブロックの段部との間で押し潰されて円周方向に変形し、ボルトの円柱部外周面とブロックの大径部内周面に当接する。このとき、ボルトがブロックにすきまばめされ、ボルトの円柱部とブロックの貫通孔との間に隙間があっても、環状部材が円柱部を中心部に向かって押圧し、ボルトをセンタリングするため、治具を用いなくてもブロックをベース部材に位置決めして固定することができる。また、従来例で使用していたスペーサを用いなくても、ボルトの円柱部とネジ部との間の段差部分を用いてボルトの締付量を規定するので、従来例より部品点数が減少し、組立作業にかかる手間を軽減できる。
よって、本発明のブロック固定構造によれば、ブロックとベース部材を簡単かつ正確に位置合わせして組み立てることができる。
In the block fixing structure of the present invention having the above configuration, the cylindrical portion of the bolt is inserted into the through hole of the block, and the screw portion is screwed into the base member until the stepped portion between the cylindrical portion and the screw portion abuts against the base member. Then, the annular member is crushed between the head portion of the bolt and the step portion of the block and deformed in the circumferential direction, and comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the bolt and the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion of the block. At this time, even if there is a clearance between the bolt cylinder and the through hole of the block, the annular member presses the cylinder toward the center and centers the bolt The block can be positioned and fixed to the base member without using a jig. Even without using the spacer used in the conventional example, the bolt tightening amount is defined by using the stepped portion between the cylindrical part of the bolt and the screw part, so the number of parts is reduced compared to the conventional example. , The labor required for the assembly work can be reduced.
Therefore, according to the block fixing structure of the present invention, the block and the base member can be assembled simply and accurately.

そして、環状部材がボルトの頭部に当接する端面に外側面から内側面に向かって傾斜するテーパ面を形成した場合には、ボルトの締結時に、外周縁部が最初にボルトの頭部に当たって円周方向にほぼ均一な荷重を加えられるため、環状部材を円周方向に均一に押し潰すことができる。   When the annular member is formed with a tapered surface inclined from the outer surface toward the inner surface on the end surface that contacts the head portion of the bolt, the outer peripheral edge portion first contacts the head portion of the bolt when the bolt is fastened. Since a substantially uniform load can be applied in the circumferential direction, the annular member can be uniformly crushed in the circumferential direction.

本発明のブロック固定構造を有する集積弁は、複数の流路ブロックを取付板又は取付レールに簡単かつ正確に位置合わせして組み付けることができることに加え、流路ブロック同士や流路ブロックと流体制御機器を適切に接続して、十分なシール性を確保することができる。   The integrated valve having the block fixing structure according to the present invention can easily and accurately align and assemble a plurality of flow path blocks to a mounting plate or a mounting rail, and can control flow paths between each other or between the flow path blocks and the fluid control. Equipment can be properly connected to ensure sufficient sealing performance.

次に、本発明に係るブロック固定構造及び集積弁の実施形態について説明する。   Next, an embodiment of a block fixing structure and an integrated valve according to the present invention will be described.

(第1実施形態)
図1は、第1実施形態のブロック固定構造を示す図である。
本実施形態のブロック固定構造1は、従来例と同様、図6に示す集積弁100に用いられ、流路ブロック(特許請求の範囲の「ブロック」に相当。)121〜128を取付板(特許請求の範囲の「ベース部材」に相当。)110に固定するために使用される。ここでは、従来例と同様、流路ブロック127を取付板110に固定する場合を例に挙げて説明する。
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a block fixing structure according to the first embodiment.
The block fixing structure 1 of the present embodiment is used in the integrated valve 100 shown in FIG. 6 as in the conventional example, and the flow path blocks (corresponding to “blocks” in the claims) 121 to 128 are attached to the mounting plates (patents). Corresponding to the “base member” in the claims.) Used to fix to 110. Here, as in the conventional example, the case where the flow path block 127 is fixed to the mounting plate 110 will be described as an example.

ボルト2は、ステンレスや、鉄、アルミなどの金属を材料とし、頭部3と円柱部4とネジ部5が基端部から先端部に向かって連ねられている。円柱部4は、外径が頭部3の径より小さく設定されている。ネジ部5は、外径が円柱部4の径より小さく設定され、外周面に取付板110の雌ネジ部にねじ込まれる雄ネジ部が形成されている。流路ブロック127は、ステンレスを直方体形状に成形し、流路等をドリルで穿設したものである。   The bolt 2 is made of a metal such as stainless steel, iron, or aluminum, and a head portion 3, a cylindrical portion 4, and a screw portion 5 are connected from the base end portion toward the tip end portion. The cylindrical part 4 is set to have an outer diameter smaller than the diameter of the head part 3. The screw part 5 has an outer diameter set smaller than the diameter of the columnar part 4, and a male screw part to be screwed into the female screw part of the mounting plate 110 is formed on the outer peripheral surface. The channel block 127 is formed by forming stainless steel into a rectangular parallelepiped shape and drilling a channel or the like with a drill.

流路ブロック127には、図中上側面から図中下側面へと貫通する貫通孔7が設けられている。貫通孔7は、内径h2が円柱部4の外径h1より僅かに大きく設定されている。貫通孔7の図中上端開口部の周りには、貫通孔7の径より大きい径を有する大径部6が設けられ、ボルト2の頭部3を収納するようになっている。そのため、大径部6と貫通孔7は、段部8を介して連なっている。ボルト4と段部8との間には、ゴムワッシャ(特許請求の範囲の「環状部材」に相当。)9が圧縮保持され、流路ブロック127を取付板110に押し付けるように付勢して、流路ブロック127のがたつきを防止している。   The flow path block 127 is provided with a through hole 7 penetrating from the upper side surface in the drawing to the lower side surface in the drawing. The through hole 7 has an inner diameter h <b> 2 that is slightly larger than the outer diameter h <b> 1 of the cylindrical portion 4. A large-diameter portion 6 having a diameter larger than the diameter of the through-hole 7 is provided around the upper end opening in the drawing of the through-hole 7 so as to accommodate the head 3 of the bolt 2. Therefore, the large diameter part 6 and the through hole 7 are connected via the step part 8. A rubber washer (corresponding to an “annular member” in the claims) 9 is compressed and held between the bolt 4 and the stepped portion 8 to urge the flow passage block 127 against the mounting plate 110. Further, rattling of the flow path block 127 is prevented.

図2は、ゴムワッシャ9の断面図である。
ゴムワッシャ9は、フッ素ゴムやパーフロロエラストマーなどのゴム材料を射出成形したものである。ゴムワッシャ9は、一定幅を有する環状をなし、断面形状が略長方形状をなす。ゴムワッシャ9の図中上側面には、外側面側から内側面側に傾斜するテーパ面10が形成され、外周縁部11が軸方向に最も突き出している。
FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the rubber washer 9.
The rubber washer 9 is formed by injection molding a rubber material such as fluoro rubber or perfluoroelastomer. The rubber washer 9 has an annular shape with a certain width, and has a substantially rectangular cross-sectional shape. A tapered surface 10 that is inclined from the outer surface side to the inner surface side is formed on the upper side surface of the rubber washer 9 in the figure, and the outer peripheral edge portion 11 protrudes most in the axial direction.

図1に示すように、ゴムワッシャ9を流路ブロック127の大径部6に装着し、ボルト2を大径部6からゴムワッシャ9、貫通孔7に貫き通し、ネジ部5を取付板110に締め付けると、やがて、円柱部4とネジ部5との間の段差部分が取付板110の端面に当接し、ネジ部5を取付板110に締め付けることができなくなる。このとき、ゴムワッシャ9は、外周縁部11がボルト2の頭部3に当接した後、ボルト2の下降に伴ってテーパ面10を加圧されて押し潰される。ゴムワッシャ9は、内周面がボルト2の円柱部外周に当接する一方、外周面が流路ブロック127の大径部内周に当接すると、ボルト2の円柱部4を中心部に向かって押圧する。   As shown in FIG. 1, the rubber washer 9 is attached to the large diameter portion 6 of the flow path block 127, the bolt 2 is passed from the large diameter portion 6 to the rubber washer 9 and the through hole 7, and the screw portion 5 is attached to the mounting plate 110. When tightened, the stepped portion between the columnar portion 4 and the screw portion 5 comes into contact with the end surface of the mounting plate 110, and the screw portion 5 cannot be tightened to the mounting plate 110. At this time, after the outer peripheral edge 11 abuts on the head 3 of the bolt 2, the rubber washer 9 is crushed by pressing the tapered surface 10 as the bolt 2 descends. The rubber washer 9 presses the cylindrical portion 4 of the bolt 2 toward the center when the outer peripheral surface abuts on the inner periphery of the large-diameter portion of the flow path block 127 while the inner peripheral surface abuts on the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion of the bolt 2. To do.

従って、本実施形態のブロック固定構造1によれば、ボルト2の円柱部4を流路ブロック127の貫通孔7に挿通し、円柱部4とネジ部5との間の段差部分を取付板110に突き当てるまでネジ部5を取付板110にねじ込むと、ゴムワッシャ9がボルト2の頭部3と流路ブロック127の段部8との間で押し潰されて円周方向に弾性変形し、ボルト2の円柱部外周面と流路ブロック127の大径部内周面に当接する。このとき、ボルト2が流路ブロック127にすきまばめされ、例えば、ボルト2の円柱部4の径が最小公差h1−aであり、流路ブロック127の貫通孔7の径が最大公差h2+aであって、ブロック固定構造1全体の公差が2aになっても、ゴムワッシャ9が円柱部4を中心部に向かって押圧し、ボルト2をセンタリングするため、治具を用いなくても流路ブロック127を取付板110に位置決めして固定することができる。また、従来例で使用していたスペーサ134を用いなくても、ボルト2の円柱部4とネジ部5との間の段差部分を用いてボルトの締付量を規定するので、従来例より部品点数が減少し、組立作業にかかる手間を軽減できる。
よって、本実施形態のブロック固定構造1によれば、流路ブロック127と取付板110を簡単かつ正確に位置合わせして組み立てることができる。
Therefore, according to the block fixing structure 1 of the present embodiment, the cylindrical portion 4 of the bolt 2 is inserted into the through hole 7 of the flow path block 127, and the stepped portion between the cylindrical portion 4 and the screw portion 5 is attached to the mounting plate 110. When the screw portion 5 is screwed into the mounting plate 110 until it abuts against the rubber plate, the rubber washer 9 is crushed between the head portion 3 of the bolt 2 and the step portion 8 of the flow path block 127 and elastically deformed in the circumferential direction, The cylinder 2 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the bolt 2 and the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion of the flow path block 127. At this time, the bolt 2 is fitted into the flow path block 127. For example, the diameter of the cylindrical portion 4 of the bolt 2 is the minimum tolerance h1-a, and the diameter of the through hole 7 of the flow path block 127 is the maximum tolerance h2 + a. Even if the tolerance of the entire block fixing structure 1 is 2a, the rubber washer 9 presses the cylindrical portion 4 toward the center and centers the bolt 2, so that the flow path block can be used without using a jig. 127 can be positioned and fixed to the mounting plate 110. Further, even if the spacer 134 used in the conventional example is not used, the tightening amount of the bolt is defined by using the stepped portion between the cylindrical portion 4 and the screw portion 5 of the bolt 2, so that the part is more than the conventional example. The number of points can be reduced, and the labor required for assembly work can be reduced.
Therefore, according to the block fixing structure 1 of the present embodiment, the flow path block 127 and the mounting plate 110 can be easily and accurately aligned and assembled.

また、ゴムワッシャ9がボルト2の頭部3に当接する端面に外側面から内側面に向かって傾斜するテーパ面10を形成されており、ボルト2の締結時に、外周縁部11が最初にボルト2の頭部3に当たって円周方向にほぼ均一な荷重を加えられるため、ゴムワッシャ9を円周方向に均一に押し潰すことができる。   The rubber washer 9 is formed with a tapered surface 10 which is inclined from the outer surface toward the inner surface on the end surface where the rubber washer 9 abuts against the head 3 of the bolt 2. Since a substantially uniform load can be applied in the circumferential direction when it hits the head 3 of 2, the rubber washer 9 can be uniformly crushed in the circumferential direction.

そして、本実施形態のブロック固定構造1を有する集積弁100は、複数の流路ブロック121〜128を取付板110に簡単かつ正確に位置合わせして組み付けることができることに加え、流路ブロック121〜128と流体制御機器101〜108を適切に接続して、十分なシール性を確保することができる。   In addition, the integrated valve 100 having the block fixing structure 1 of the present embodiment allows the plurality of flow path blocks 121 to 128 to be easily and accurately aligned and assembled to the mounting plate 110, and in addition to the flow path blocks 121 to 128 and the fluid control devices 101 to 108 can be appropriately connected to ensure sufficient sealing performance.

(第2実施形態)
続いて、本発明の第2実施形態について説明する
本実施形態のブロック固定構造21は、従来例と同様に集積弁100に設けられ、ゴムワッシャ15が第1実施形態のゴムワッシャ9と相違し、その他が第1実施形態のブロック固定構造1と共通する。よって、ここでは、第1実施形態と相違するゴムワッシャ15を中心に説明し、共通するものについては図面に第1実施形態と同一符号を付し、説明を適宜省略する。
(Second Embodiment)
Subsequently, the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The block fixing structure 21 of the present embodiment is provided in the integrated valve 100 as in the conventional example, and the rubber washer 15 is different from the rubber washer 9 of the first embodiment. Others are common to the block fixing structure 1 of the first embodiment. Therefore, here, the rubber washer 15 different from that of the first embodiment will be mainly described, and common parts will be denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment, and description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

図4は、ゴムワッシャ15の断面図である。
ゴムワッシャ15は、フッ素ゴムやパーフロロエラストマーなどのゴム材料を射出成形したものである。ゴムワッシャ15は、円周方向に一定幅を有する環状をなす。ゴムワッシャ15は、断面形状が上端面と下端面、及び、内周面と外周面がそれぞれ平行な多角形状をなす。従って、ゴムワッシャ15は、図中上側面の外周縁部が軸方向に張り出していない。
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the rubber washer 15.
The rubber washer 15 is obtained by injection molding a rubber material such as fluoro rubber or perfluoroelastomer. The rubber washer 15 has an annular shape having a constant width in the circumferential direction. The rubber washer 15 has a polygonal shape in which the cross-sectional shape is an upper end surface and a lower end surface, and an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface are parallel to each other. Accordingly, the rubber washer 15 does not protrude in the axial direction at the outer peripheral edge of the upper side surface in the drawing.

図5は、ゴムワッシャ15の装着部分の一部拡大断面図である。
ゴムワッシャ15をボルト2の円柱部4に装着して、ボルト2を流路ブロック127の大径部6から貫通孔7に貫き通し、ネジ部5を取付板110に締め付けると、ゴムワッシャ15は、図中上下端面がボルト2の頭部3の下端面と流路ブロック127の段部8に当接して加圧される。ゴムワッシャ15は、ボルト2の頭部3と流路ブロック127の段部8との間で挟み込まれて弾性変形し、内周面がボルト2の円柱部外周面に当接する一方、外周面が流路ブロック127の大径部内周面に当接すると、ボルト2の円柱部4を中心部に向かって直接押圧する。そのため、本実施形態のブロック固定構造も、ゴムワッシャ15が、ボルト2の締付時にボルト2のセンタリングを行うことができる。
FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged cross-sectional view of a mounting portion of the rubber washer 15.
When the rubber washer 15 is attached to the cylindrical portion 4 of the bolt 2, the bolt 2 is passed through the through hole 7 from the large diameter portion 6 of the flow path block 127, and the screw portion 5 is tightened to the mounting plate 110, the rubber washer 15 is In the drawing, the upper and lower lower end surfaces are pressed against the lower end surface of the head 3 of the bolt 2 and the step portion 8 of the flow path block 127. The rubber washer 15 is sandwiched between the head portion 3 of the bolt 2 and the step portion 8 of the flow path block 127 and elastically deformed. The inner peripheral surface abuts on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the bolt 2, while the outer peripheral surface is When abutting against the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion of the flow path block 127, the cylindrical portion 4 of the bolt 2 is directly pressed toward the center portion. Therefore, also in the block fixing structure of this embodiment, the rubber washer 15 can center the bolt 2 when the bolt 2 is tightened.
