例えば、半導体装置の製造においては、製造したICチップを真空吸着パッドで吸着して検査装置に移送し、該検査装置を通して良品、不良品を振り分ける作業が行われる。この場合、真空吸着パッドは、移送するICチップの大きさに応じて交換し、吸着を適正に行えるようにする。従って、この真空吸着パッドは、容易に交換可能にすることが望まれる。 For example, in the manufacture of a semiconductor device, the manufactured IC chip is sucked with a vacuum suction pad and transferred to an inspection device, and a non-defective product and a defective product are sorted through the inspection device. In this case, the vacuum suction pad is exchanged according to the size of the IC chip to be transferred so that the suction can be performed properly. Therefore, it is desirable that this vacuum suction pad be easily replaceable.
このため、真空パッドを容易に交換可能とする試みがなされてきている(特許文献1参照)。 For this reason, attempts have been made to easily replace the vacuum pad (see Patent Document 1).
本発明は、上記の点に鑑み、真空吸着パッドにより物品を吸着して移送する移送装置において、真空吸着パッドの交換をより容易に行えるようにする管継手を提供しようとするものである。 In view of the above points, the present invention is intended to provide a pipe joint that makes it easier to replace a vacuum suction pad in a transfer device that sucks and transfers an article with a vacuum suction pad.
