Room and treatment unit. [Prior Art] e For the device used in the FPD production plant, there is known a treatment device for applying various treatments to the substrate for FPD in a vacuum or a reduced pressure environment, for example, using a plasma pair to be processed. A plasma processing apparatus that applies a treatment such as etching to a substrate for FPD, and a plasma processing apparatus, as described in Patent Document 1, includes a processing chamber (processing chamber) for applying plasma treatment to a target object. There are various chambers such as a transfer chamber (transport chamber) for transporting a transport mechanism of the object to be processed, and a lock chamber (load lock chamber). In the processing chamber, there are disposed upper electrodes facing each other and a lower electrode serving as a mounting table on which the object to be processed is placed. A high frequency is applied between the upper electrode and the lower electrode to cause plasma in the processing space between the upper electrode and the lower electrode. However, the substrate to be processed, in particular, the substrate for FPD is gradually becoming larger, and a substrate having a square size of 2000 mm to 2400 mm is now used in actual FPD manufacturing. The size of the substrate for FPD is also increasing in size in the future, and eventually becomes approximately 3000 mm square or more. Since the size of the FPD substrate can be increased by the number of FPD panels obtained from one substrate, there is an advantage in that cost reduction can be achieved. In the case of the case where the chamber is provided, the shape or size of the chamber can be easily changed according to the user's request. [Patent Document 1] JP-A-2007-67218 [Problem to be Solved by the Invention] _ The size of the substrate for FPD is increased by the processing chamber of the processing chamber for performing processing on the FPD substrate. With the increase in size, the entire processing device is also large. In general, a processing device for a substrate for an FPD divides the processing device into each chamber and transports it from the processing device manufacturing plant to the FPD production plant. However, since the chamber itself eventually exceeds the shipping size limit as the chamber itself becomes larger, it is difficult to transport the processing device from its manufacturing facility to the FPD production plant. It is an object of the present invention to provide a chamber that can be transported even beyond the limit of the transport size, and a processing device that uses the chamber. In order to solve the above problems, the chamber according to the first aspect of the present invention includes a rectangular parallelepiped body that opens at least one side surface, and is detachably attached to the main body. Side panels on the sides. A chamber according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a body having a rectangular parallelepiped opening at least one side surface, and is attached to a side surface of the main body that is opened -6-201011855, and has a shape conforming to an opening of the main body. The open spacers are detachably attached to the side plates of the spacers. In the processing apparatus according to the third aspect of the present invention, the processing chamber to be processed by the object to be processed is used in the chamber according to the first or second aspect. [Effect of the Invention] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a chamber which can be transported even if it exceeds the limit of the transport size, and a processing apparatus using the chamber. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The same reference numerals are given to the same parts throughout the drawings. (First embodiment) FIG. 1A is a perspective view showing an example in which a chamber Ο according to a first embodiment of the present invention is applied to a processing chamber, and FIG. 1B is a first FIG. An exploded perspective view of the processing chamber. As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, the processing chamber 1a has a rectangular parallelepiped body 2 that opens at least one side surface, and a side plate 3a that is detachably attached to the opened side of the body 2, 3b. The body 2 is made of, for example, aluminum. In the present embodiment, the side surface 2a is the first side wall 5 for loading and unloading the object to be processed (in this example, the loading/unloading port (gate valve opening) 4 of the FPD substrate in the fourth side surface 2a to 2d. Further, in this example, the two side faces 2b and 2c adjacent to the side surface 2a are opened, and the one side surface 2d of the side surface 2a is the second side wall 6 with respect to the side surface 2d. The upper portion of the main body 2 is a ceiling 8 to which an opening 7 such as an electrode is attached, and the lower portion is formed with an opening or an exhaust port through which a wiring or the like is inserted into a mounting table or the like (there is no picture in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B). The bottom plate 10 of the formula). That is, the processing chamber la is a body 2 having a rectangular tube shape formed by the first side wall 5, the second side wall 6, the sky plate 8, and the bottom plate 10, and the open end portions of the corner tube are blocked. The side plates 3a and 3b are formed. In this example, the side plates 3a and 3b are detachably mounted on the side faces 2b and 2c by a detachable fixing member 12 such as a bolt or the like via a sealing member 11, for example, a Ο-shaped ring or the like. In the present example, the width w, the height h, and the depth I of the main body 2 are limited to the limit of the transport size. However, in the state in which the side panel 3 is attached to the main body 2, the width w1 along the mounting direction of the side panel exceeds the transport size. The limit. As in the prior art, the processing chamber la of such a size is not transportable when the aluminum plate is joined by fusion bonding and mechanically processed into a box shape. However, the processing chamber 1a according to the first embodiment is divided into the body 2 and the side plates 3a and 3b. The length of each side of the body 2 is limited to the limit of the transport size, and the body 2 and the side plates 3a, 3b are transported to a production plant such as an FPD production plant where the side plates 3a, 3b are mounted to the body 2. Accordingly, even a processing chamber la of a size that is impossible to transport can be installed in a production plant. As a result, according to the first embodiment, it is possible to provide a processing chamber that can be transported even beyond the limit of the transport size. Fig. 2A is a schematic view showing a section -8 - 201011855 of the processing chamber shown in Fig. 1A. Further, the cross section shown in Fig. 2 corresponds to a cross section taken along line 2A-2A of Fig. 1A. The processing chamber la shown in Fig. 2A is constructed by a capacitive coupling type parallel plate plasma etching processing chamber. Here, a liquid crystal display (LCD), an electroluminescence (EL) display, a plasma display panel (PDP), or the like is exemplified as the FPD. The substrate 10 of the processing chamber 1a is provided with a target object, for example, a mounting table 21 on which the FPD substrate G is placed by φ. The mounting table 21 is supported by the bottom plate 10 of the processing chamber la via the insulating member 22. The mounting table 21 is connected to an opening 9 for forming a high-frequency power via an opening 9 formed in the bottom plate 10, and an integrator 24 and a high-frequency power source 25 are connected to the power supply line 23. The high-frequency power source 25 supplies a high power of, for example, 13.56 MHz to the stage 21. Accordingly, the mounting table 21 functions as a lower electrode. The upper electrode base 26 is attached to the opening 7 of the top plate 8 of the mounting table 21, and the upper electrode base 26 supports a shower head 27 that functions as an upper electrode. A gas supply source 29 is connected to the shower head 27 via a gas supply pipe 28a. On the surface of the shower head 27 opposite to the mounting table 21, a plurality of discharge holes of a non-patterned discharge gas are formed. The plasma treatment, for example, the process gas system for electric paddle is supplied from the process gas supply source 29 to the inside of the process chamber la via the unillustrated discharge port. The shower head 27 constitutes a pair of parallel plate electrodes together with the mounting table 21 functioning as a lower electrode. Further, the size of the opening 7 is also larger than the size of the mounting table 21. The mounting table 21 can be placed inside the processing chamber la, for example, by the opening 7. The side plates 3a and 3b are detachably attached to the side faces 2b and 201011855 2c of the main body 2. In this example, the side plates 3a, 3b are detachably mounted to the body 2 via a hinge 30. In the processing chamber 1a, for example, the object to be processed is a substrate G for FPD having a rectangular planar shape. Further, the rectangular FPD substrate G is a large substrate of about 3 000 m square or more. The length of the shortest side of the substrate G of such a large FPD is about 3000 mm, for example, 2800 mm or more. The width w1 of the mounting direction of the processing chambers la, such as the side plates 3a, 3b, for processing the large-sized FPD substrate G has exceeded the limit of the transport size. In this example, the side plates 3a, 3b of the chamber la are detachably connected to the body 2 which is limited to the limit of the transport size. Therefore, it is possible to transport from the manufacturing plant manufacturing the processing chamber la to the production plant where the FPD is produced in the state of dividing the body 2 and the side plates 3a, 3b. The conveyed body 2 and the side plates 3a, 3b are installed in the production plant, and even if the processing chamber la of the chamber la which exceeds the limit of the transport size is held, it can be placed in the production plant and, in this example, The body 2 and the side plates 3a, 3b are detachably connected to each other. In this case, it is mounted freely, in particular via a hinge 30 switch. When the chamber la is processed as described above, for example, as shown in Fig. 2B, the entire switches of the side plates 3a and 3b can expose the entire interior of the chamber la to the outside. When the chambers la of the whole switch are provided by the side plates 3a, 3b, for example, it is easier to perform the device for performing maintenance of the inside of the chamber la only via the openings 7, 9 which are partially opened in the chamber la. The advantages of the maintenance of the interior of the chamber la. -10-201011855 (Second Embodiment) Fig. 3A is a perspective view showing an example in which a chamber according to a second embodiment of the present invention is adapted to a processing chamber, and Fig. 3B is a third view. An exploded perspective view of the chamber shown in A. As shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, the chamber lb according to the second embodiment is different from the chamber ia according to the first embodiment in the open side 2b of the body 2, 2c, and between the side plates 3a, 3b, further provided with spacers 31a, 31b. The other is almost the same as the chamber la. The spacers 31a, 31b are attached to the opened side faces 2b, 2c of the body 2, and in this example, have openings 32 that conform to the shape of the openings of the side faces 2b, 2c of the body 2. Fig. 4A is a view showing an example of a substrate processing apparatus using the chamber shown in Fig. 3A. Further, the cross section shown in Fig. 4A corresponds to a cross section taken along line 4A-4A of Fig. 3A. The processing chamber lb shown in Fig. 4A is identical to the processing chamber ® chamber 1a shown in Fig. 2, and is constructed by a capacitive coupling type parallel plate plasma etching processing chamber. The processing chamber lb is different from the processing chamber la by the spacers 31a, 31b' and the FPD between the open sides 2b, 2c of the body 2 of the chamber ib and the side plates 3a, 3b. The size of the substrate G is larger than the processing chamber ia. The other is almost the same as the chamber la. Fig. 5 to Fig. 5C are horizontal cross-sectional views showing an example of the advantages produced by the chambers 1a and 1b by the embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 5A is a comparative example of a processing chamber lc having a box shape formed by integrally bonding a -11 - 201011855 integrally formed by bonding a plate material by fusion bonding. When the size of the FPD substrate G0 is small, even if the processing chamber lc is of an integral type, the size of the processing chamber lc is limited to the limit of the transport size. Fig. 5B is an embodiment in which the processing chamber 1a according to the first embodiment is held. When the size of the FPD substrate G1 is increased to form the processing chamber la in an integrated manner, when the boundary of the transport size is exceeded, the body 2 and the side plates 3a and 3b are divided as shown in FIG. 2 is limited to the limit of the shipping size. Accordingly, as described above, even the processing chamber la which is beyond the limit of the transport size can be transported. Fig. 5C is a view showing an embodiment in which the processing chamber lb according to the second embodiment is held. When the size of the FPD substrate G2 becomes larger, the spacers 31a, 3b are interposed between the side faces 2b, 2c and the side plates 3a, 3b, and the distance between the body 2 and the side plates 3a, 3b is extended. According to this, even if the substrate F2 for FPD having a large size can be processed, the processing chamber lb which can be transported can be obtained. Further, the size of the substrate G for the FPD has a small size difference per FPD 即使 manufacturer even if it is of the same specification. In such a case, when the processing chamber lb according to the second embodiment is used, the size of the processing chamber lb can be finely adjusted by using the spacers 31a and 31b. By slightly adjusting the size of the processing chamber lb, for example, even if the FPD substrate G having different dimensional differences can be obtained, the distance from the edge of the glass substrate G to the side plates 3a and 3b can be made constant, and the FPD substrate having the difference in size can be obtained. G is also capable of performing the processing chamber lb of uniform processing. Further, the chambers 1a, 1b are, for example, as shown in Fig. 2B and Fig. 4B, the entire side plates 3a and 3b are opened -12-201011855. If such a chamber la, lb, for example, FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B, the side plate 3 and the bottom plate 1 are formed into a body 2, which is used as an upper cover switch than the top plate 8& The chamber lc has an advantage of being easily accessible to the lower electrode 21 and being easy to perform maintenance. (Embodiment 3) FIG. 7 is an exploded perspective view showing an example in which a chamber according to a third embodiment of the present invention is applied to a processing chamber, and FIG. 8 is a view showing a third embodiment of the present invention. An exploded perspective view of another example of a chamber involved in the state. As shown in Figs. 7 and 8, the processing chambers Id and le according to the third embodiment are configured to divide the top plate 8 into a split type. In this example, the top plate 8 is in the shape of a box, and the sealing member 1 1, for example, a 0-ring or the like, is detachably attached to the upper surface of the main body 2 as an upper cover. The processing chamber id shown in Fig. 7 is for the processing chamber 1a according to the first embodiment, and the sky plate 8 is also divided into a splitting type, and the processing chamber shown in Fig. 8 is the first pair. 2 The processing chamber lb involved in the embodiment is further divided into the split type. In this way, not only the side plates 3a and 3b are divided into a split type, but the base plate 8 can be detachably attached to the main body 2 as an upper cover. According to the third embodiment, compared with the first and second embodiments, it is possible to obtain an advantage even when the size of the processing chamber in the height direction exceeds the limit of the transport size. Furthermore, the top plate 8 is detachable, and the first and second embodiments are more detachable than the side plates 3a and 3b, and it is easier to perform maintenance -13-201011855 points. Further, although there is no special pattern, not only the slab 8, but also the bottom plate 10 shown in FIG. 1B or FIG. 3B may be divided, and even the slab 8 and the bottom plate 10 are only for the flat plate portion. Also. (Fourth Embodiment) FIG. 9 is a horizontal cross-sectional view showing an example in which a chamber according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention is adapted to a processing chamber, and FIG. 9B shows a ninth φ diagram A. The cross-sectional view shown by the line 9B-9B is shown in Fig. 9, and the cross-sectional view shown by the 9C-9C line shown in Fig. 9A is shown. As shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 9C, the processing chamber If according to the fourth embodiment is such that the ribs 33 are attached to the side plates 3a and 3b, and the wall thicknesses of the side plates 3a and 3b are set to be 1st. It is thinner than the third embodiment. The ribs 33 can function as reinforcing materials for the side plates 3a and 3b. Therefore, in this example, for example, the wall thickness t1 of the side plates 3a, 3b can be made thinner than the wall thicknesses t2, t3 of the side walls 5, 6 of the main body 2. According to the processing chamber If according to the fourth embodiment, since the wall thickness t1 of the side plates 3a and 3b can be thinned, it is possible to obtain materials such as aluminum used for reducing the processing chamber If, for example, aluminum. And the advantage of the cost involved in the processing chamber If can be reduced. Of course, even if the wall thickness t1 is a thin side plate 3a, 3b, it can be detachably attached, and in this example, the main body 2 can be detachably attached via the hinge 30. Therefore, it is also possible to obtain good maintainability as in the first to third embodiments. Fig. 10A is a horizontal cross-sectional view showing another example of the processing chamber according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 1B is a view showing 10B of the first diagram A shown in Fig. 14-201011855. 1 is a cross-sectional view shown by the OB line, and FIG. 10C is a cross-sectional view taken along line 10C-10C shown in FIG. As shown in Figs. 10A to 10C, the side plates 3a, 3b to which the ribs 33 are attached can also be applied to the processing chambers lg having the spacers 31a, 31b. At this time, the cost involved in the processing chamber lg can be reduced. Further, the side plates 3a and 3b having the ribs 33 can be attached to the spacers 3 1 a and 3 1 b via the hinge 30, for example, so that good maintainability can be maintained. The present invention has been described above by several embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the present invention is shown in the processing chamber of the FPD substrate. However, the present invention is also applicable to various other types of chambers such as a transfer chamber or a load lock chamber. The substrate performs a processing chamber of the processing device. Further, in the above embodiment, the side plates 3a and 3b are formed as a single plate-shaped member. However, as shown in, for example, FIGS. 11A and 11B, it is assumed that the side plates 3a and 3b face the chamber. The box-shaped member that holds the recess 34 inside may also be used. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the side plates 3a and 3b are opened and closed toward the bottom side of the bottom plate 1. However, as shown in Fig. 12, the side plate 8 may be opened or closed. When the side plates 3a, 3b are turned to the side of the top plate 8, there is an advantage that the operator can easily access the chamber li when the side plates 3a, 3b are opened, for example, during maintenance or the like. Further, in the above-described embodiment, although the side plates 3a, 3b are detachably attached to the side faces 2b, 2c of the body 2 via the hinge 30, the side plates 3a, as shown in Fig. -15-201011855, The whole of 3b may be attached to the side faces 2b and 2c in a state where it can be removed from the side faces 2b and 2c of the main body 2. Even in such a chamber lj, since the side plates 3a, 3b are removed, there is an advantage that the operator can easily access the chamber U at the time of maintenance. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the side plates 3a and 3b are detachably attached to the two side faces, respectively, but the side plates may be detachably attached to at least one side surface.
