(Patent Document 1) Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2004. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) An object of the present invention is to carry out the collection of articles using the clean gas for the purpose of the receipt of articles. In the conveyance of the article, the air used to load the processing device on the side of the transfer table processing device replaces the transport device between the processing device device 2 and the transport carriage, and the transport carriage door is synchronized and slowly opened. The air blown between the air and the transport trolley is placed in the air. Further, in Patent Document 1, the side of the apparatus or the like is frequently blown - the body of the 299895 is rapidly replaced with the air between the transporting carriage -4-200901351 and the processing apparatus, and the waiting time before the receipt of the article is shortened. The additional problem in the invention of the second aspect is that the air between the transporting carriage and the processing device is pushed by the clean gas, and the article can be received in a shorter time. An additional problem in the invention of claim 3 is that a large amount of clean gas can be supplied between the conveyance trolley and the apparatus. (Means for Solving the Problem) The present invention provides a clean room apparatus including: an opening for receiving articles; a shutter for opening and closing the opening; and a means for supplying a clean gas to the inside of the opening A dust chamber device is characterized in that an air outlet for blowing a clean gas to the outside is provided in the door. The clean gas can be a clean air or a clean nitrogen gas. Preferably, the air outlet is provided in the vicinity of the center of the surface of the door covering the opening. Further, the position of the air outlet may be "nearly located at the center" in the vicinity of the center portion of the surface covering the opening of the door, for example, the width in the upper and lower directions and the width in the horizontal direction from the center of the surface of the surface. About 1% of the total. Preferably, the clean room device is fixed to the device in the interior of the chamber for receiving articles between the trolley and the transport trolley. (Effect of the Invention) In the present invention, since the air between the door and the article is exchanged by the cleaned gas from the air outlet, the waiting time before the article is collected can be shortened. According to the invention of claim 2, since the clean gas is supplied from the substantially central portion of the door to evict the air between the other party and the object, the environment can be efficiently replaced with a clean gas. And can shorten the waiting time. In the invention of the third aspect of the patent application, since the clean gas is supplied from the device fixed in the clean room, a large amount of clean gas can be supplied more easily than when the clean gas is supplied from the transport trolley or the like. . [Embodiment] The following is a preferred embodiment for carrying out the invention. (Embodiment) Figs. 1 to 5 show an embodiment and variations thereof. In each of the figures, the component symbol 2 is a processing device in a clean room; 4 is an unmanned transport vehicle, and may be a railcar or the like; and the processing device 2 is provided to receive an article 16 between the unmanned transport vehicle 4 and the unmanned transport vehicle 4; Load 埠6. In the automated guided vehicle, an opening for receiving the article 16 is provided to the left and right of the traveling direction, and the roller 1 is used to take up/unload the shutter 1 to open/close the opening. The component symbol 1 4 is a fan filter unit for supplying clean air to the unmanned transport vehicle 4; and 16 is a target object such as a liquid crystal substrate or a semiconductor, a grating mask, or the like. cassette. The component symbol 18 is a transfer device such as a scale arm. -6 - 200901351 The clean air is supplied from the fan filter unit 20 in the loading cassette 6, and a clean air such as nitrogen can be supplied instead of the clean air. The opening surface of the loading cassette 6 is provided with, for example, a blowing port 24 which is covered by the shutter 22 and is provided at a central portion of the opening surface. Once the shutter 22 is moved by the opening and closing device 26, the loading unit 6 is mounted. Will open. Further, it is also possible to provide a shutter for opening/closing the air outlet 24, etc. only when the unmanned transport vehicle 4 reaches the loading port 6 to open the air outlet 24. Alternatively, the processing device 2 may be replaced by an inspection device, a storage, or the like, or the automated guided vehicle 4 may be replaced by a railcar or the like. Fig. 2 shows the posture of the shutter 22 as viewed from the front, and the area in the dotted line shows the area which can be detached from the opening surface of the loading cassette 6 because the shutter 22 is located in the opening and closing device 26. Then, the air outlet 24 is located in the shutter door 22 at a substantially central portion of the opening surface of the loading magazine 6, but does not need to be strictly located at the center portion. Fig. 3 is a view showing a stopper door 3 2 of a variation in which a central portion of the opening surface of the loading port is provided with a blowing port 34 at the shutter 32, and a plurality of air outlets 35 are provided around the opening. The opening area of the central air outlet 34 is formed to be larger than the respective opening areas of the peripheral air outlets 35. Fig. 4 is a view showing the shutter 4 2 of the second modification. The shutter 4 2 is provided with, for example, a plurality of air outlets 44 formed in a checkerboard shape in a substantially comprehensive manner of the opening surface of the loading jaw. The operation of the air outlet 24 in the embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 1 and 5 . The clean air is frequently supplied from the fan filter unit 20 in the loading cassette 6, and the clean air is often blown out from the air outlet 24. When the unmanned transport 200901351 arrives at the vehicle 4, the clean air from the air outlet 24 of the central portion of the shutter 22 is ejected to the side of the door 10 of the automated guided vehicle 4, and is divided into up, down, left, and right, and is pumped with clean air. The air between the crucible 6 and the automated guided vehicle 4 is replaced by the air. The air outlet 24 is located at the center of the opening surface of the loading cassette 6, and when the clean air expands from above to the left and right, the air between the shutters 1 and 22 can be replaced most efficiently with the clean air. In the case of the shutter 3 in the third embodiment, since the peripheral air outlets 35 are provided in the center portion, the air for cleaning from the air outlets 34 is hard to expand up and down, and is replaced. The time required to block the air between the doors 32, 10 becomes slightly longer. In the case of the modification of Fig. 4, the clean air from the opening arranged in the checkerboard shape of the door 42 is easy to reach the automated guided vehicle 4 and expands up and down and left and right, but from the central portion of the shutter 42 The clean air of the outlet is difficult to blow due to the flow of clean air from the peripheral air outlet, so that the replacement of air near the central portion of the shutter 42 is delayed. When the air from the air outlet 24 or the like is used to replace the air between the processing device 2 and the automated guided vehicle 4 with the clean air, the opening and closing speeds of the shutters 22 and 10 can be increased, for example, in a shorter period. Receive items 16 in time. Therefore, the waiting time until the article is received can be shortened. Further, since the clean air is blown out from the side of the processing apparatus 2, a larger flow rate of clean air can be blown than when the air is blown from the unmanned vehicle 4 side.
