本発明は、可動ステージ装置に関し、特に1次元方向あ

とのできるステージ装置の構造に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a movable stage device, and particularly to the structure of a stage device that can move an object with high precision in a one-dimensional direction or within a two-dimensional plane. .
[従来の技術]

く採用されている。[Prior Art] A movable stage device used in semiconductor exposure equipment, ultra-precision processing equipment, etc. has a large effect on the accuracy of the movement guide portion of the stage, the motion accuracy, and positioning accuracy of the stage. Therefore, a combination of a non-contact bearing device and a highly rigid guide structure is often used as a guide device.

Y2次元平面可動ステージ装置となる。FIG. 3 shows the appearance of an example of a conventional uniaxial movable stage device. In this case, a movable stage 32 supported so as to surround a highly rigid kite rail 32 moves in the X direction on a guide rail 31. Movable stage 3
Air from an air bearing device (not shown) is blown between the movable stage 2 and the kite rail 31 to provide a floating blade to the movable stage 32, thereby forming a sliding bearing with extremely low friction. The movement of the stage 32 is generally performed by an electromagnetic drive device.
Two combinations of stage 1 and stage 32 are arranged in parallel, and both stages are connected to form a movable stage in the X direction. Furthermore, if the same thing is carried on an X-direction movable stage with the guide support body facing in the Y-direction perpendicular to the X-direction,
It becomes a Y2-dimensional plane movable stage device.
こ発明か解決しようとする課題]
第3図に示すような可動ステージ装置の構造では、可動
ステージ32の重量により、カイトレール31か歪む、
また、可動ステージ装置31の位置によってカイトレー
ル31の歪み量も変わる。Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the structure of the movable stage device as shown in FIG. 3, the weight of the movable stage 32 causes the kite rail 31 to become distorted.
Further, the amount of distortion of the kite rail 31 also changes depending on the position of the movable stage device 31.
この歪みを少なくするためには、カイトレール31の剛
性を高める必要かあるか、そうするとガイドレールか大
型化、し、それにつれて可動ステージまでも大型化せざ
るをえなくなる。これは可動ステージの運動性を低下さ
せるので、高速で高精度なステージ装置か得られなくな
る。In order to reduce this distortion, is it necessary to increase the rigidity of the kite rail 31? If so, the guide rail will have to be enlarged, and the movable stage will also have to be enlarged accordingly. This reduces the mobility of the movable stage, making it impossible to obtain a high-speed and highly accurate stage device.
さらに、可動ステージ32を垂直(重力)方向移動に使
用する場合には、ガイドレール31も垂直に立てられる
。この場合、ステージ32の重心と支持点とがずれるの

変形する。この傾きと変形は、ステージ31に対してY
llllまわりのローリングとX軸まわりのピッチング
等の運動誤差を生じせしめ、これが位置決め精度を劣化
させる原因となる。Furthermore, when the movable stage 32 is used for vertical (gravity) direction movement, the guide rail 31 is also erected vertically. In this case, since the center of gravity of the stage 32 and the support point are shifted, the stage 32 or the tilted kite rail 31 is deformed due to the weight. This tilt and deformation is caused by Y
This causes motion errors such as rolling around lllll and pitching around the X axis, which causes deterioration in positioning accuracy.
本発明の目的は装置を大型化することなく、可動ステー
ジの運動性を向上させ、垂直移動ステージ装置の場合で

である。An object of the present invention is to provide a movable stage device that improves the mobility of the movable stage without increasing the size of the device and has high positioning accuracy even in the case of a vertically movable stage device.
′L課題を解決するための手段]
本発明の垂直可動ステージ装置においては、カイトレー
ルを構成する一対のベースが可動ステージを挟み込む構

えることかできるので、ベースの変形か起きない。"Function" Supported without contact in the gap between the first and second base members,
The movable part moves through the gap. Since the base is a flat body unlike the pillar-shaped kite rail, it can easily be made to have high rigidity, and virtually no deformation occurs even when the weight of the moving part is applied.Furthermore, it can be constructed by sandwiching the moving part between two bases. Therefore, even in the case of a vertically movable stage, even if a moment is generated due to the weight of the movable part, it is possible to provide sufficient strength to the base without causing an increase in the weight of the movable part. Deformation does not occur.
