Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a substrate transfer apparatus and a substrate processing apparatus including the same, and more particularly, to an apparatus for conveying a substrate for manufacturing a display element and an apparatus for processing the substrate including the same.
In general, display elements are used in flat panel displays for displaying an image. For example, a liquid crystal display (LCD) using liquid crystal, a plasma display (PDP) using plasma, and an organic light emitting display using an organic light emitting diode ( OLED) and the like.
The display device is manufactured through a transparent glass substrate. Specifically, the display device is manufactured through a deposition process, an etching process, a photolithography process, a cleaning process, and the like based on the substrate. In this case, the substrate is conveyed to the process chambers in which the processes are performed through a separate substrate transport apparatus to perform the above processes.
The substrate transport apparatus includes a plurality of transport shafts installed in the process chamber to transport the substrate and support plates installed at a bottom of the process chamber to support both sides of the transport shafts.
At this time, at least one of both sides of the conveying shaft has a configuration passing through the support plate in order to receive a rotational force from an external drive device.
Accordingly, any one of the support plates may flow along the conveying shafts, which may result in the spacing between the support plates not being kept constant.
That is, the conveying shafts are twisted with each other due to the non-uniform spacing between the support plates, thereby failing to convey the substrate stably.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a substrate transfer device capable of stably transporting a substrate.
Moreover, another object of this invention is to provide the substrate processing apparatus containing the said substrate conveyance apparatus.
In order to achieve the above object of the present invention, a substrate conveying apparatus according to one aspect includes supporting plates, a first conveying shaft and a second conveying shaft.
The support plates are spaced apart from each other. Both parts of the first conveyance shaft are supported by the support plates, and the substrate placed on the upper portion conveys a rotational force from an external driving device. The second conveying shaft is fixed at both sides of the support plates in parallel with the first conveying shaft, and maintains a constant gap between the supporting plates while supporting the conveyance of the substrate through a plurality of idle rollers.
Thus, the second conveying shaft includes a shaft fixed to the support plates and bearings installed between the idle rollers and the shaft so that the idle rollers rotate freely.
The substrate transport apparatus may further include a first magnetic disk and a second magnetic disk.
The first magnetic disk is connected with the first conveying shaft on the outer side of any one of the support plates and has first magnetic bodies along the circumferential direction. The second magnetic disk is spaced apart to face the first magnetic disk, and the rotational force is transmitted from the driving device, and includes the second magnetic body magnetically coupled with the first magnetic body along the circumferential direction to the rotational force Deliver to the first magnetic disk.
Meanwhile, the plurality of first conveying shafts and the plurality of second conveying shafts may be alternately arranged.
In order to achieve the above object of the present invention, a substrate processing apparatus according to one aspect includes a process chamber, a substrate processing unit, support plates, first conveying shafts and second conveying shafts.
The process chamber provides space for processing a substrate. The substrate processing unit is installed in the process chamber, and sprays a chemical on the substrate to process the substrate. The support plates are spaced apart from each other at the bottom of the process chamber.
Each of the first conveying shafts is supported by the supporting plates, and respective portions of the first conveying shafts are conveyed by receiving a rotational force from an external driving device.
The second conveying shafts are alternately arranged with the first conveying shafts so that respective side portions thereof are fixed to the supporting plates, and support the conveyance of the substrate placed on the first conveying shafts through a plurality of idle rollers. While keeping the spacing between the support plates constant.
Thus, the substrate processing unit may further include first magnetic disks and second magnetic disks.
The first magnetic disks are connected to each of the first conveying shafts between any one of the support plates and the outer wall of the process chamber, each having first magnetic bodies along the circumferential direction.
The second magnetic disks are disposed to face the first magnetic disks through the outer wall, and the rotational force is transmitted from the driving device, and the second magnetic bodies are magnetically coupled to the first magnetic bodies along the circumferential direction, respectively. And transmit the rotational force to the first magnetic disks.
According to such a substrate conveying apparatus and a substrate processing apparatus including the same, a rotational force for conveying a substrate is transmitted to the first conveying shafts, while maintaining a constant distance between the supporting plates between the first conveying shafts. By arranging the second conveying shafts supporting the substrate conveyed by the first conveying shafts, the conveyance of the substrate can be stably progressed.
As a result, defects of the substrate generated during transportation may be minimized to improve the production yield of the display device manufactured through the substrate.
