본 발명은 기판 이송 및 고정장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 웨이퍼 등의 기판을 진공흡착방식으로 파지하되 다공성 쿠션재를 이용하여 기판의 저면과 밀착된 상태를 유지하면서 이송시키는 기판 이송 및 고정장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a substrate transfer and fixing device, and more particularly to a substrate transfer and fixing device for holding a substrate such as a wafer in a vacuum adsorption method while maintaining a state in close contact with the bottom of the substrate using a porous cushioning material It is about.

평판 디스플레이 장치의 제조에서 실리콘 또는 유리로 이루어진 기판 상에는 전기적인 회로 패턴들이 형성될 수 있다. 상기 회로 패턴들은 증착 공정, 포토리소그래피 공정, 식각 공정 및 세정 공정 등과 같은 일련의 단위 공정들을 수행함으로써 형성될 수 있다. 그리고 상기 단위 공정들은 인-라인으로 수행될 수 있다. Electrical circuit patterns may be formed on a substrate made of silicon or glass in the manufacture of a flat panel display device. The circuit patterns may be formed by performing a series of unit processes such as a deposition process, a photolithography process, an etching process, and a cleaning process. The unit processes may be performed in-line.

이에, 상기 단위 공정들은 이송이 이루어지는 상태에서 수행될 수 있다. 그러므로 상기 단위 공정들을 수행하는 모듈들에는 기판을 이송하는 이송 장치가 구비된다. 아울러, 상기 단위 공정들을 수행하는 모듈들 사이에도 기판을 이송하는 이송 장치가 구비된다.Thus, the unit processes may be performed in a state where the transfer is made.

상기와 같이 평면이 아닌 자체적으로 휘어진 곡선형의 웨이퍼 및 표면굴곡이 있는 웨이퍼는 기존에 평면의 웨이퍼와 마찬가지로 단단한 평면의 진공척을 그대로 사용하여 고정 및 이송시킬 경우 웨이퍼의 표면굴곡 및 휘어진 아치형의 형태에 따라 균일한 압력이 가해지지 못하게되어 웨이퍼의 일부가 파손되거나, 안전한 파지가 이루어지지 않게 되는 문제점이 있었다.As described above, curved wafers with curved surfaces and wafers with surface curvatures, rather than flat surfaces, have surface curvatures and curved arch shapes when the wafers are fixed and transported using the same vacuum flat chuck as the flat wafers. As a result, a uniform pressure cannot be applied, and thus a part of the wafer is broken or a safe gripping is not performed.

상기와 같은 종래 문제점을 해결하기 위한 본 발명은 웨이퍼의 대면적화로 인해 웨이퍼가 완전한 평면이되지 못하고, 표면굴곡이 발생하거나 웨이퍼 자체가 휘어짐에 따라 단면의 형태가 곡선형을 이루게 되더라도, 상기 웨이퍼의 굴곡에 대응하도록 탄력적인 파지가 이루어져 웨이퍼가 손상되지 않을 뿐더러 웨이퍼 전면에 안전한 파지가 이루어지고 이송시킬 수 있도록 하는 기판 이송 및 고정장치를 제공하는 데 그 목적이 있다.According to the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems, the wafer is not completely flat due to the large area of the wafer, and even if the shape of the cross section becomes curved as the surface is curved or the wafer itself is bent, It is an object of the present invention to provide a substrate transfer and fixing device that is elastically gripped to cope with bending to prevent damage to the wafer and to secure and grip the wafer in front of the wafer.

먼저, 변형지지부(100)는 상면에 기판(20)을 지지하는 다공성 쿠션재질로 구성된다.First, the deformation support part 100 is composed of a porous cushion material for supporting the substrate 20 on the upper surface.

상기 변형지지부(100)가 다공성재질로 구성된 이유는 다수의 미세공으로 공기가 빠져나가면서 기판(20)을 파지할 수 있도록 하기 위한 것이고, 쿠션재질로 구성된 이유는 상기 변형지지부(100)가 기판(20)을 진공흡착할 경우 변형방지부(100)와 접하는 기판(20)의 굴곡진 형상에 맞춰 변형지지부(100)가 변형되어 기판(20)과 밀착되도록 하기 위한 것이다.The deformation support part 100 is formed of a porous material to allow the air to escape into the plurality of micropores so that the substrate 20 can be gripped, and the reason that the deformation support part 100 is formed of a substrate ( In the case of vacuum adsorption 20, the deformation support part 100 is deformed to closely contact the substrate 20 in accordance with the curved shape of the substrate 20 in contact with the deformation preventing part 100.

Configuration.

상기 고정지지부(200)는 종래 진공척과 같은 기능을 한다.The fixed support part 200 functions like a conventional vacuum chuck.

상기 고정지지부(200)는 변형지지부(100)가 안착하도록 수용홈(210)을 형성하고, 상기 수용홈(210)의 바닥면에는 고정지지부(200) 하부와 연결된 진공흡입부(300)의 작용으로 수용홈(210) 및 상기 수용홈(210)에 안착된 변형지지부(100)의 미세공으로 공기가 빠져나갈 수 있도록 한다.The fixed support portion 200 forms a receiving groove 210 so that the deformation support portion 100 is seated, and the action of the vacuum suction unit 300 connected to the bottom of the fixed support portion 200 on the bottom surface of the receiving groove 210. In order to allow the air to escape into the micropores of the deformation support part 100 seated in the receiving groove 210 and the receiving groove 210.

진공흡입부(300)는 상기 고정지지부(200)의 하부에 연결되고 상기 수용홈(210)을 진공상태로 만들도록 상기 배출공(220)으로 수용홈(210)의 공기를 흡입하는 작용을 한다.The vacuum suction unit 300 is connected to the lower portion of the fixed support portion 200 and serves to suck the air of the accommodation groove 210 into the discharge hole 220 to make the receiving groove 210 in a vacuum state. .

상기 진공흡입부(300)가 수용홈(210) 및 상기 수용홈(210)에 안착된 변형지지부(100)의 미세공의 공기를 흡입하게되면, 상기 변형지지부(100)의 상부에 위치한 기판(20)은 변형지지부(100)와 밀착되고 진공흡착방식으로 파지할 수 있다.When the vacuum suction part 300 sucks the air of the micropores of the receiving groove 210 and the deformation support part 100 seated in the receiving groove 210, a substrate located above the deformation support part 100 ( 20 may be in close contact with the deformation support part 100 and gripped by a vacuum suction method.

이때, 상기 변형지지부(100)는 미세공으로 공기가 빠져나가면서 압축되는데, 그 압축된 형상이 기판(20)의 굴곡진 형상과 대응하도록 변형되어 상기 기판(20)과 변형지지부(100)는 전면이 밀착된 상태로 지지될 수 있다.

It can be supported in an intimate state.

본 발명의 바람직한 실시 예에 따르면, 상기 변형지지부(100)는 스펀지(sponge)로 이루진다.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the deformation support portion 100 is made of a sponge (sponge).

상기 변형지지부(100)는 다공성이면서도, 탄력을 구비한 공지의 다양한 쿠션재질 및 추후 개발되는 다양한 소재로 구비될 수 있으나, 특히 스펀지로 구비될 수 있다.The deformation support part 100 may be provided with various cushion materials and various materials to be developed later, while being porous and having elasticity, but may be particularly provided as a sponge.

상기 스펀지는 다공성이면서도 탄력을 구비한 대표적인 다공성쿠션재로서, 천연고무나 합성수지로 만든 해면(海綿)을 일컬으며, 탄성이 있는 해면상의 다공질물질도 스펀지라고 한다. 이런 것에는 천연고무의 원액을 발포시켜 만든 라버형, 합성수지로 만든 우레탄형이 있다. 라버형은 햇볕을 쬐면 노화현상을 일으키고, 또 비누에 약하므로 현재로는 합성수지 제품이 대부분을 차지한다.The sponge is a representative porous cushion material having a porosity and elasticity, and refers to a sponge made of natural rubber or synthetic resin, and the porous material on the sponge is also called a sponge. These include a rubber type made by foaming natural rubber stock and a urethane type made of synthetic resin. Raver type causes aging phenomenon in the sun and is weak in soap.

또한, 스펀지의 쿠션력을 이용하여 침구(요나 방석)나 여러 가지 바킹의 재료, 청소용구 등 여러 방면에 쓰이며, 해면의 대용으로 목욕용·화장용·의료용·세척용 등 다양하게 쓰인다.In addition, it is used in various fields such as bedding (yona cushion), various barking materials, cleaning equipment, etc. by using the cushioning force of sponge, and it is used in various ways such as bathing, cosmetics, medical care and washing as a substitute for sponges.
