201206808 六、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於一種迴旋流形成體及使用該迴旋流形成 體的非接觸搬運裝置,尤其是關於一種用於大型液晶顯示 器(LCD)或電漿顯示器(PDP)等之FPD (平面顯示器 )或太陽電池板(solar panel)等之生產的軌條(rai〇 狀之非接觸搬運裝置、及構成該非接觸搬運裝置的迴旋流 形成體。 【先前技術】 習知以來,在生產FPD或太陽電池板等時,有採用 藉由將1片面板大型化以提高生產效率的方法。例如,在 液晶玻璃的情況時,第10代可達2850x3050x0.7mm的大 小。因此,如習知般,當將液晶玻璃載置於複數個並排的 輥子上而滾動搬運時,會因支撐輥子的軸之撓曲或輥子高 度的不均等而使較強之力局部在液晶玻璃起作用,而有傷 及液晶玻璃之虞》 依上述輥子之滾動搬運裝置,近年來已開始採用一種 被要求該裝置與面板爲非接觸之例如在FPD之處理步驟 中無法採用的氣浮式搬運裝置。作爲非接觸搬運裝置,有 存在如下的裝置:在板狀之軌條的一部分使用多孔質材料 ,藉由使其與供氣路徑連通而供氣,並利用噴出空氣將 FPD浮起搬運。但是,當使用該裝置時,由於FPD是成 ' 爲一邊朝上下方向移動一邊浮游的狀態,所以雖然能夠用 201206808 於搬運步驟,但是卻無法在例如被要求30〜50μπι之高精 度浮起高度的處理步驟中採用。 又,當在使用上述多孔質材料的板狀之軌條設置抽真 空用的孔時,裝置的構成就會變得複雜,且裝置本身會變 得高價,並且當爲了要高精度地維持浮起高度而提高供氣 壓力時,會有發生高剛性空氣之壓縮性的自激振動,而無 法高精度地保持浮起高度的問題。 更且,雖然也有存在將孔口( orifice :小徑的口)取 代多孔質材料來與抽真空用的孔交互地穿設的裝置,但是 會有因來自孔口之較強的噴出空氣而發生靜電、或擾動無 塵室之環境、或消耗流量變大而使運轉成本高漲的問題。 因此,在專利文獻1中,有提出一種在基體之搬運面 具備2個以上之迴旋流形成體的非接觸搬運裝置,作爲流 體流量及能源消耗量少、且可高精度地維持浮起高度的非 接觸搬運裝置,而該迴旋流形成體係藉由使流體從流體噴 出口噴出,可產生朝向遠離環狀構件之表面側的方向之迴 旋流,並且在環狀構件之表面側的開口部近旁產生朝背面 方向的流體流動。 (專利文獻1 )國際公開第2009/1 1 93 77號文獻 【發明內容】 (發明所欲解決之問題) 在上述專利文獻1所記載的非接觸搬運裝置中,由於 是在形成於基體之搬運面的凹部容納迴旋流形成體,且藉 -6- 201206808 由突設於凹部周圍的隆起部將該迴旋流形成體斂縫接合, 所以要將迴旋流形成體裝設於基體需要長時間而關係著非 接觸搬運裝置之製造成本的升高,並且在將迴旋流形成體 斂縫接合於基體時,會在迴旋流形成體之安裝角度產生不 均等,或在迴旋流形成體或基體(軌條)發生向外彎曲使 得被搬運物之浮起高度的精度降低之虞的問題》 (解決問題之手段) 因此,本發明係有鑒於上述先前技術的問題點而開發 完成者,其目的在於提供一種可減低非接觸搬運裝置之製 造成本,且防止被搬運物之浮起高度之精度降低的迴旋流 形成體、及使用該迴旋流形成體的非接觸搬運裝置。 爲了達成上述目的,本發明提供一種迴旋流形成體, 其特徵爲,具備:呈碗狀的本體,其係具有開口於表面側 之俯視觀察呈圓形的穴部;及流體噴出口,其係開口於形 成該本體之前述穴部的內表面;以及流體取入口,其係開 口於前述本體之外表面,且與前述流體噴出口連通,並藉 由從前述流體噴出口噴出流體,俾於前述本體之表面側產 生朝向遠離該表面之方向的上升迴旋流。 依據本發明,由於迴旋流形成體,係使流體噴出口開 口於碗狀的本體之內表面,且於外表面具備與流體噴出口 連通的流體取入口,所以藉由將該迴旋流形成體容納於基 體之凹部等,且從流體取入口取入流體,就可簡單地構成 非接觸搬運裝置,且可將非接觸搬運裝置之製造成本抑制 201206808 得較低。又,正當將該迴旋流形成體裝設於基體時,藉由 將該迴旋流形成體之本體的外表面壓入於基體之容納部的 內表面,就不會在該本體的外表面與基體的容納部之內表 面之間產生流體的洩漏而使該迴旋流形成體被裝設於前述 基體》 又,在上述迴旋流形成體中,前述本體,係可於底面 具備突出部,並且具備一體形成於前述穴部之開口部外周 緣的環狀鍔部,且具備:從該環狀鍔部之外周面朝向前述 底面側突出,且於前端具有卡止突起的複數個突出部。藉 由該構成,就可以單觸操作(one touch)將迴旋流形成體 裝設於基體,且可更進一步減低製造成本。又,由於在將 迴旋流形成體裝設於基體時,並未如習知般地使用斂縫接 合,所以不會在迴旋流形成體之安裝角度產生不均等,或 在迴旋流形成體及基體發生向外彎曲,故可將被搬運物之 浮起高度的精度維持得較高。 在上述迴旋流形成體中,前述流體噴出口,是在前述 穴部之圓筒狀內壁面並位於該圓筒狀內壁面的切線方向, 也就是位於:在夾隔著該穴部中心並呈對角線上之相對向 之位置所形成的凹部處,使分別位在前述穴部之圓筒狀內 壁面側的前述開口部,分別朝向相反方向而形成。如此, 藉由在該凹部形成分別開口於相反方向的流體噴出口,就 可使從該流體噴出口噴出的流體抵接於圓筒狀內壁面,且 在該穴部產生右旋轉方向或是左旋轉方向的上升迴旋流。 又,迴旋流形成體,係可由聚縮醛共聚合物樹脂等之 -8 - 201206808 熱塑性合成樹脂一體成形,故可更進一步減低迴旋流形成 體的製造成本。 更且,本發明提供一種非接觸搬運裝置,係由基體、 與裝設於該基體的搬運面之可產生俯視觀察爲相互地呈相 反方向之上升迴旋流的2個以上之迴旋流形成體所構成, 其特徵爲:該基體係具備:俯視觀察呈圓形的複數個容納 部,其係開口於搬運面;及該容納部的底面;以及呈帶狀 的圓筒卡止凹部,其係形成於該容納部之圓筒狀內壁面且 直徑比該容納部之開口部之直徑還更大;且藉由形成於前 述迴旋流形成體的前述本體之底面的突出部抵接於前述基 體之容納部的底面以使該本體撓曲,而可將前述複數個卡 止突起之各個容納於前述基體之圓筒卡止凹部,且藉由該 本體回復到原來的形狀而使前述複數個卡止突起之各個可 卡止於該圓筒卡止凹部,並且藉由該本體之環狀鍔部的外 周面被壓入嵌合於前述基體之容納部的圓筒狀內壁面而使 該迴旋流形成體被裝設於前述基體之容納部。依據本發明 ,可提高一種構造簡單且減低製造成本的非接觸搬運裝置 〇 又,在上述非接觸搬運裝置中,將可產生一方向之上 升迴旋流的前述迴旋流形成體與流體吸入用孔,沿著前述 基體之寬度方向交互地配置而成的列;以及將可產生另一 方向之上升迴旋流的前述迴旋流形成體與流體吸入用孔, 沿著前述基體之寬度方向交互地配置而成的列,沿著該基 體之長度方向交互地配置,並且前述流體吸入用孔以位在 -9 - 201206808 :位於該基體之寬度方向及長度方向的同方向產生上升迴 旋流的前述迴旋流形成體之間的方式進行排列。藉由該構 成,由於從迴旋流形成體擴展流動的面在複數個迴旋流形 成體成爲同一平面,且使被搬運物浮起的基準變成爲基體 之搬運面,所以可高精度地控制被搬運物之浮起高度,並 且藉由以流體吸入用孔來真空吸附周圍的微量流體,就可 高精度地控制被搬運物之浮起高度,並可合適地應用於處 理步驟等中。 (發明效果) 如以上所述’依據本發明,可提供一種減低非接觸搬 運裝置之製造成本’且防止被搬運物之浮起高度之精度降 低的迴旋流形成體、及使用該迴旋流形成體的非接觸搬運 裝置。 【實施方式】 其次’就本發明的實施形態一邊參照圖式一邊詳細說 明。另外,在以下的說明中,係舉使用空氣作爲搬運用流 體’且搬運液晶玻璃(以下,稱爲「玻璃」)作爲被搬運 物的情況爲例加以說明。 第1圖(a)至第1圖(f)係顯示本發明之產生迴旋 流形成體中的俯視觀察呈右旋轉方向(順時鐘方向)之上 升迴旋流的迴旋流形成體1,而該迴旋流形成體1,係具 備:碗狀的本體la,其係以例如聚縮醛共聚合物樹脂等 -10- 201206808 之熱塑性合成樹脂一體成形;及俯視觀察呈圓形的穴部 lb,其係位於本體la之內部,並且開口於一方;及環狀 鍔部lc’其係形成於本體ia,且一體形成於該穴部ib之 開口部的外周緣;及4支突出部if,其係從該環狀鍔部 lc之外周面Id朝向下方突出,且於前端具有卡止突起le 並在徑向相對向而形成;及圓筒狀的突出部lh,其係在 本體la之底面lg的中央部從該底面18稍微朝下方突出 ;及凹部lj、lj’其係形成於本體la的穴部lb之圓筒狀 內壁面Π且形成於該圓筒狀內壁面li之切線方向並隔著 該穴部lb之中心〇而呈對角線上之相對向的位置;及空 氣的噴出口 lk、lk,其係形成於各自的凹部lj,且朝向 穴部lb之圓筒狀內壁面li側分別開口於相反方向;以及 空氣取入口 11、11,其係連通於噴出口 lk,且開口於本 體1 a之外周面。 上述迴旋流形成體1,係藉由夾介空氣取入口 11、11 分別從噴出口 lk、lk噴出的空氣抵接於本體la的穴部 lb之圓筒狀內壁面li,而產生俯視觀察呈右旋轉方向之 上升迴旋流(第1圖(b)中的箭頭方向)。 第2圖(a)至第2圖(f)係顯示本發明之產生迴旋 流形成體中的俯視觀察呈左旋轉方向之上升迴旋流的迴旋 流形成體4,而該迴旋流形成體4,係與前述迴旋流形成 體1同樣,具備:碗狀的本體4a,其係以例如聚縮醛共 聚合物樹脂等之熱塑性合成樹脂一體成形:及俯視觀察呈 圓形的穴部4b,其係位於本體4a之內部,並且開口於一 -11 - 201206808 方;及環狀鍔部4c,其係形成於本體4a,且一體形成於 該穴部4b之開口部的外周緣;及4支突出部4f,其係從 該環狀鍔部4c之外周面4d朝向下方突出,且於前端具有 卡止突起4e並在徑向相對向而形成;及圓筒狀的突出部 4h’其係在本體4a之底面4g的中央部從該底面4g稍微 朝下方突出;及凹部4j、4j,其係形成於本體4a的穴部 4b之圓筒狀內壁面4i且形成於該內壁面4i之切線方向並 隔著該穴部4b之中心Ο而呈對角線上之相對向的位置;

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a swirling flow forming body and a non-contact conveying device using the same, particularly for a large liquid crystal display (LCD) or plasma a rail (Radio-like non-contact conveying device) produced by an FPD (flat display) such as a display (PDP) or a solar panel, and a swirling flow forming body constituting the non-contact conveying device. Conventionally, in the production of FPDs, solar panels, etc., there is a method of increasing the productivity by increasing the size of one panel. For example, in the case of liquid crystal glass, the 10th generation can reach 2850x3050x0.7mm. Therefore, as is conventionally, when the liquid crystal glass is placed on a plurality of side-by-side rolls and rolled and conveyed, a strong force is locally caused by the deflection of the shaft of the supporting roller or the unevenness of the height of the roller. The liquid crystal glass works, and there is a flaw in the liquid crystal glass. According to the rolling device of the above roller, in recent years, a device and a panel have been required to be used. Non-contact, for example, an air-floating conveying device that cannot be used in the processing steps of the FPD. As a non-contact conveying device, there is a device in which a porous material is used in a part of a plate-shaped rail, and The gas path is connected to the air, and the FPD is lifted and transported by the air. However, when the device is used, the FPD is in a state of being floated while moving in the vertical direction. Therefore, it is possible to use the 201206808 in the carrying step. However, it cannot be used in a processing step in which, for example, a high-precision floating height of 30 to 50 μm is required. Further, when a hole for vacuuming is provided in a plate-shaped rail using the porous material, the configuration of the device is It becomes complicated, and the device itself becomes expensive, and when the supply pressure is increased in order to maintain the floating height with high precision, there is a self-excited vibration in which the compressibility of the high-rigidity air occurs, and the high-precision vibration cannot be maintained. The problem of the height of the float. Moreover, there is also the possibility of replacing the porous material with the orifice (the orifice of the small diameter) to interact with the hole for vacuuming. However, in the case of the device that is worn, there is a problem that static electricity is generated by the strong discharge air from the orifice, or the environment of the clean room is disturbed, or the consumption flow rate is increased, and the running cost is increased. A non-contact conveying device including two or more swirling flow forming bodies on a conveying surface of a base body is proposed as a non-contact conveying device capable of maintaining a floating height with high fluid flow rate and energy consumption. The swirling flow forming system generates a swirling flow in a direction away from the surface side of the annular member by ejecting the fluid from the fluid discharge port, and generates a fluid flow in the back direction in the vicinity of the opening on the surface side of the annular member. (Patent Document 1) International Publication No. 2009/1 1 93 77 [Disclosure of the Invention] The non-contact conveyance device described in Patent Document 1 is formed in a substrate. The concave portion of the surface accommodates the swirling flow forming body, and the vortex forming body is caulked by the bulging portion protruding around the concave portion by -6-201206808, so The installation of the swirling flow forming body on the base body takes a long time and is related to the increase in the manufacturing cost of the non-contact conveying device, and when the swirling flow forming body is caulked and joined to the base body, the mounting angle of the swirling flow forming body is not generated.
