The plate-shaped body conveying device is provided with an upstream-side conveying unit, a downstream-side conveying unit, and a relay conveying unit, and the upstream-side conveying unit is provided with a cleaning air supplied to the .7 surface of the rectangular plate-shaped body to bring the plate-shaped body into a non-contact state. Under the financial level (4), the private catching tool and the contact are the underside of the plate-shaped body supported by the wind-driven branch building tool, and the touch-plate body gives the propulsion force in the direction of the moving force. The plate-shaped body is conveyed in the main conveyance direction, and the downstream conveyance unit conveys the plate-shaped m (four) feed portion in the sub-transport direction that is orthogonal to the main conveyance direction, and conveys the conveyance direction of the plate-shaped body received from the (four) upstream-side conveyance unit from the main conveyance. The direction is switched to the front/rear transport direction and transferred to the downstream side transport unit. [Prior Art 3] In the plate-like body transfer device, the plate-shaped body is conveyed in the main conveyance direction in the upstream conveyance direction, and the plate-shaped body is transferred to the intermediate transfer conveyance portion, and the plate transfer mechanism is formed in the intermediate transfer conveyance portion. The apparatus for transferring the transport direction of the body from the main transport direction to the sub transport direction, and transporting the plate-like body in the intermediate transport direction in the sub transport direction and transporting the plate-shaped body to the downstream transport unit is used in the apparatus for transporting the plate-shaped body. When the conveyance direction of the plate-shaped body is changed from the main conveyance direction to the sub- conveyance direction (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In the case of the first transfer conveyance force imparting tool, the 201221455 = the hard-moving force imparting tool for the cutting side in the sub-transporting direction is disposed from the upstream transfer portion to the intermediate transfer portion. However, the main conveyance propelling force imparting tool on the downstream side of the side is only disposed in the upstream side conveying unit and the Taocai (10) conveying unit. In addition, among the pair of sub-delivery force application tools, the misfeeding force imparting tool on the downstream side in the main conveyance direction is transferred from the relay. In the upstream side, the sub-transporting force application tool is disposed only in the downstream side conveying unit and is not disposed in the intermediate conveying unit. In the transfer conveyance unit, when the plate-shaped body is conveyed in the main conveyance direction, the main conveyance force on the upstream side in the sub-transport direction is given to the lower surface of the tool-contacting plate-shaped body in the main conveyance direction. When the plate-shaped body is conveyed in the direction of the transport of the field, the sub-transporting force on the downstream side in the main transport direction is given to the lower surface of the plate-like body, and the plate-shaped body is pushed in the sub-transport direction. force. CITATION LIST OF THE INVENTION PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION In the plate-shaped body conveying device of Patent Document 1, the intermediate transfer unit is provided in the intermediate transfer unit. The main conveyance propulsion power supply tool on the downstream side of the conveyance direction and the sub-transportation propulsion power supply tool on the upstream side in the main conveyance direction are used to convey the plate-like body in the main conveyance direction even when the transfer unit 4 201221455 is fed in the main conveyance direction. The main conveyance propelling force is applied to the lower surface of the both ends of the plate-shaped body in the sub-transporting direction, and the pair of main conveyance propelling force is applied to the plate-like body to appropriately impart the propulsive force in the main conveyance direction and to be conveyed in the sub-transporting direction. In the case of the plate-like body, the sub-transporting force is applied to the lower surface of the both end portions of the tool-contacting plate-like body in the main conveying direction, and the pair of sub-propulsion driving force is applied to the plate-like body in the sub-transporting direction as appropriate. The propulsive force is given, and the plate-shaped body is transported in the main transport direction or the sub-transport direction. On the other hand, if the plate-like body is supported by the air-supply supporting tool in the vicinity of the propelling force applying tool, the contact pressure of the tool to the plate-like body is lowered due to the floating of the plate-like body. In order to suppress the lowering of the contact pressure of the tool to the lower surface of the plate-like body, between the pair of main conveyance propelling force imparting tools and the pair of sub-transporting propulsive force giving means In the tool, it is necessary to give the upstream side of the main conveyance direction to the downstream side of the main conveyance direction, and to the downstream side of the main conveyance direction with respect to the auxiliary conveyance force of the upstream side of the main conveyance direction. The state to set. However, when the plate-shaped body is transported from the upstream side transfer unit to the intermediate transfer unit, the plate-shaped body is the first one formed between the sub-transporting force application tool and the intermediate transfer-type support tool on the upstream side in the main conveyance direction. The upper side of the gap is conveyed. However, since the air supply type supporting tool is not provided in the first gap, the center portion of the plate-shaped body in the sub-transporting direction is bent downward. Thus, the curved plate-shaped body is present. The downstream side of the conveyance direction is conveyed and comes into contact with the intermediate feed air type support tool and is damaged. In the case of the second transfer which is formed between the main conveyance force application tool and the intermediate transfer air supply support tool on the downstream side in the sub conveyance direction, At the time of conveyance, the center portion of the main conveyance direction of the plate-like body is bent downward and is broken. The present invention has been made in view of the above-described facts, and an object of the present invention is to provide a propulsion force to the plate-like body appropriately. When the plate-shaped body is conveyed, it is possible to prevent the plate-shaped body from being damaged in the case of the plate-shaped body conveying device. Means for Solving the Problem The plate-shaped body conveying device of the present invention is provided with an upstream side conveying unit, a downstream side conveying unit, and a relay conveying unit, and the upstream side conveying unit is provided with a lower surface of a rectangular plate-shaped body. Clean the air, and the plate-shaped body is supported in a horizontal position in the non-contact state of the air supply type supporting device, and is in contact with the lower surface of the plate-shaped body read by the air supply type branch tool and is conveyed to the plate-shaped body. The propulsive force of the propulsive force in the direction is given to the tool, and the downstream side conveying unit conveys the plate-shaped body in the direction in which the main conveying direction is orthogonal to the direction in which the main conveying direction is formed, and the intermediate transfer unit receives the plate shape from the upstream conveying unit. The body-feeding direction is switched from the main conveyance direction to the front-side conveyance direction, and is transferred to the side conveyance unit. # ▲ The propulsion force application tool is provided, and the upstream conveyance unit is disposed across the transfer conveyance unit. And the contact plate-shaped body is provided on the lower surface of the both ends of the sub-transporting direction, and the plate-like body is given the "the line-feeding force giving item" from the _ turn = (four) to the downstream side of the sputum. It is arranged and is in contact with In the lower surface of the rain end portion of the main transport direction of the above-mentioned 6 201221455, the propulsion force in the sub-transporting direction is given to the plate-shaped body, and the propelling force is supplied to the k-shaped device; a pair of main transporting propelling force is provided between the tools in the sub-transporting direction to evacuate the pair of main transporting propellant tools, and is provided on the upstream side air supply supporting tool of the upper transporting unit. Between the pair of sub-transporting propelling force-applying tools, each of the pair of sub-transporting propulsive force imparting means is disposed in the main transporting direction, and the downstream side air-supply supporting tool is disposed on the lower-transporting unit. In the state in which the pair of main conveyance propulsion forces are given, the tool is given to each of the pair of main conveyance propulsive forces in the sub-transporting direction, and the tool is given to the sub-transport propulsion force. a state in which each of the pair of the urging force imparting means is disposed in the above-mentioned main conveying direction, and is disposed in the intermediate conveying member of the intermediate conveying portion; The transport unit is configured to be freely switched so that the two pairs of masters are transported by means of the above-described one-way main transport propulsion power application tool and the pair of sub-transport propulsion powers And the knives and the main conveyance state in the main conveyance direction, and the pair of i-forces are applied to the lower surface of the plate-like body and the sub-transported state of the transfer direction of the plate-shaped body is provided (The air supply to the clean air is mixed in the above-mentioned transfer type = the description of the pair of gaps between the auxiliary transfer force imparting tool and the intermediate transfer air tool* is at least on the main transport side Iw: the transfer-receiving air-supply jade, which is provided between the above-mentioned tool and the above-mentioned transfer-type air-sending tool that the air supply is supplied to the relay transfer unit in 201221455. The second gap on the downstream side of the direction is at least erroneously arranged; the grading is arranged to be freely switchable from each of the wind turbines, and is supplied to the plate-like body above the air supply unit by the non-contact tool. Bit The clean air (4) is supplied from the air supply unit, and the "main transfer/wind: switch to the supply state" is performed in the "π-feed state", and the sub-transportation subsidy is switched to the supply stop state. When the transfer child is switched to the sub-transport state, the main transport assist air supply guard cuts the supply stop state, and the sub-transport lion air supply cooker is switched to the supply H 1 , that is, By switching the intermediate transfer unit to the main transfer state, it is possible to give the propulsion force to the plate-shaped body in the main conveyance direction by using the main conveyance propulsion force, and to transfer the plate-shaped body from the upstream transfer portion to the intermediate transfer.杳Ρ 0 〜, after the plate-shaped body is transported to the intermediate transfer unit, the transfer is carried out by the transfer. When the ρ is switched to the sub-transporting state, the urging force is applied to the sub-transporting force imparting tool to the plate-like body in the sub-transporting direction, and the plate-shaped body can be transported from the intermediate transfer conveying portion to the lower conveying portion. In the case where the relay transport unit is switched to the main transport state, the main transport assist air supply tool is switched to the supply state and the sub transport assist air supply tool is switched to the supply stop state. Therefore, the plate-shaped body is moved from the upstream side. 8 201221455 When the transfer unit is delivered to the 2nd transfer unit, the main transfer subsidy will be switched to the ',' ί. When the body is transferred from the upstream side transfer unit to the intermediate transfer unit, the sub-transport force is formed on the upstream side in the main conveyance direction, and between the front and the transfer air-cutting tool. When the lion is transported, it is switched to the supply state. Therefore, when the plate-shaped body is transported, the wind core can be sent by the main transport: the plate body is used to transport the plate body in the main transport direction.

既廣範圍地支撐板狀體,又可以在受到迴轉體接觸支樓的 板狀體附近設置空氣供給部,所以可顿空氣供給部喷出 比較少量的清潔空氣來支撐板狀體。 另外,同樣從第2 «跨到迴轉體之間喊置副搬送補 助送風工具巾的空氣供給部,在沿雖送方向搬送時,可 以在副搬送方向上廣範圍地抑制板狀體的-曲,而且,可 以從空氣供給部喷出錄少4的清潔空氣來支撐板狀體。 201221455 本發明的板狀體搬送裝置的實施態樣中理想的是,前 述主搬送補助送風工具的前述空氣供給部係橫過,包含前 述第1間隙之,前述上游側送風式支撐工具與前述中轉送風 式支撐工具之間的間隙中的,前述主搬送方向的全寬而設 置,前述副搬送補助送風工具的前述空氣供給部則是橫 過,包含前述第2間隙之,前述中轉送風式支撐工具與前述 下游側送風式支撐工具之間的間隙中的,前述副搬送方向 的全寬而設置。 亦即,在上游側送風式支撐工具和中轉送風式支撐工 具之間,雖然為了設置副搬送推進力給予工具並形成第1間 隙,而在主搬送方向上形成較大的間隙,但是因為在該間 隙的全寬設置空氣供給部,所以沿著主搬送方向搬送板狀 體時,在上游側送風式支撐工具和中轉送風式支撐工具之 間的整個範圍都可以抑制板狀體的彎曲。 另外,因為在中轉送風式支撐工具和下游側送風式支 撐工具之間的間隙的全寬設置空氣供給部,所以沿著副搬 送方向搬送板狀體時,在中轉送風式支撐工具和下游側送 風式支撐工具之間的整個範圍都可以抑制板狀體的彎曲。 本發明的板狀體搬送裝置的實施態樣中理想的是,前 述主搬送補助送風工具中之前述空氣供給部係以,前述中 轉搬送部中之前述副搬送方向的端部側之該空氣供給部彼 此的間隔比,在前述中轉搬送部中之前述副搬送方向的中 央部之該空氣供給部彼此的間隔大的狀態,沿前述副搬送

以板狀體會形成副搬送方向的中央大幅度向下方彎曲的狀 態,用主搬送補助送風工具非接觸支撐彎曲成那樣的板狀 體時,因為在彎曲大的中央部是以狹窄的間隔設置空氣供 給部以供給大量的清潔空氣,而越到彎曲漸小的端部側越 是以寬間隔設置空氣供給部來供給少量的清潔空氣,故可 對板狀體依其姿勢供給適量的清潔空氣,可以用主搬送補 助送風工具適當地支撐沿主搬送方向被搬送的板狀體之副 搬送方向的中央部。另外,同樣可以用副搬送補助送風工 具適當地支撐沿副搬送方向搬送之板狀體的主搬送方向的 中央部。 本發明之板狀體搬送裝置的實施態樣中,前述空氣供 給部宜利用具有狹縫狀喷出口的喷嘴構成。 亦即,從狹縫狀喷出口喷出清潔空氣,藉以使清潔空 氣從該喷出口喷出而可以對板狀體的下面供給清潔空氣, 同時可以利用從該喷出口喷出的清潔空氣的氣流吸引周圍 的清潔空氣,並將所吸引的周圍的清潔空氣也供給到板狀 體的下面。 因此,喷出少量的清潔空氣就可以對板狀體的下面供 13 201221455 給大量的清潔空氣,所以既可確保供給給板狀體的下面之 清潔空氣的量又能達成空氣供給部的小型化。 本發明之板狀體搬送裝置的實施態樣中宜設置可以在 限制位置和解除限制位置之間自由移動的抵接體,其中限 制位置在前述主搬送狀態中是與受前述一對主搬送推進力 給予工具載置支樓的板狀體同南度,而且在前述副搬送狀 態中抵接於受前述一對副搬送推進力給予工具載置支撐的 板狀體在前述主搬送方向的下游側的側面,解除限制接觸 限制位置在前述主搬送狀態中是在受前述一對主搬送推進 力給予工具載置支撐的板狀體的下面,在前述副搬送狀離、 中則是位在比受前述一對副搬送推進力給予工具載置支樓 的板狀體的下面更下方側’而且比前述限制位置更往前述 主搬送方向的下游側的位置。 亦即’讓抵接體先移動到限制位置時,可以檔住向主 搬送方向的下游側搬送之板狀體,因為一對副搬送推進力 給予工具位在被如此擋住的板狀體在主搬送方向的兩端部 的下方,所以將中轉搬送部從主搬送狀態切換到副搬送狀 態時,可以用一對副搬送推進力給予工具支撐板狀體之主 搬送方向的兩端部的下面,可以將板狀體的搬送方向從主 搬送方向適當地切換到副搬送方向。 而,讓抵接體先移動到解除限制位置時,因為用—對 副搬送推進力給予工具沿副搬送方向搬送板狀體時,抵接 體不會抵接板狀體’所以沿副搬送方向搬送板狀體時,可 以避免因抵接體抵接板狀體而導致之板狀體的破損。 201221455 另外,在解除限制位置時,因為抵接體位在比板狀體 更下方的位置,所以沿副搬送方向搬送板狀體時,即使板 狀體偏離主搬送方向,板狀體也不會抵接到抵接體。亦即, 因為不須要考慮板狀體偏離主搬送方向的情形,而讓抵接 體在主搬送方向的下游側大幅移動,所以可以沿主搬送方 向將抵接體設於小空間内。 另外,使抵接體從限制位置直線狀地往解除限制位置 移動時,該抵接體是在主搬送方向的下游側向斜下方移 動。讓抵接體這樣地在主搬送方向下游側的斜下方移動而 從限制位置移動到解除限制位置時,抵接體和被抵接體擋 住的板狀體之間不會發生摩擦,可以防範由該摩擦所造成 之板狀體的破損於未然。 另外’本發明中包含對應於上述構成的方法,在方法 中可以期待有對應於上述構成的作用和效果。 亦即,根據本發明的方法係一種利用設有上游側搬送 β下游側搬送部和中轉搬送部的板狀體搬送裝置之板狀 胃心料’ &巾板狀籠送裝置的上關料部設有朝 矩=狀的板狀體的下面供給清潔空氣,將板狀體於非接觸 =下讀在水平姿勢之送風式支標工具和 ,接觸為該送 、支撐具所支樓之板狀體的下面並對該板狀體給予在

5給予玻璃基板1適當地推進力。 往主搬送方向X的下游側搬送玻璃基板丨,如第1〇圖所 示,一旦主搬送第1檢測感測器31檢測到玻璃基板丨〈s2〉, 就使主昇降式推進力給予部5a (主搬送推進力給予工具5) 的作動速度減速,將主搬送推進力給予工具5所帶動的搬送 速度減速到低速搬送速度來搬送玻璃基板丨〈幻〉。 之後,主搬送第2檢測感測器32如果檢測到玻璃基板 卜就在從雜刺始到停止収定時間(從柄基板丨被主

具20被切換到供給狀態,利用從該副搬送補助送風工具2〇 喷出的清潔空氣,可以非接觸支撐中轉送風式支樓卫具_12 與下游側送風式支撐工具13之間所形成的間隙上的破璃基 板1,可以適當地支撐玻璃基板1。 開始副搬送推進力給予工具6的作動之後,切換用設$ 時間(玻璃基板1從中轉搬送部B被搬送到下游側搬送部c所 需的時間)一過〈S8〉,中轉搬送部B就會被切換到正方向主 搬送狀態〈S9〉。 接著,將就反方向搬送玻璃基板1的情形做說明。附帶 一提,反方向搬送玻璃基板1時,在玻璃基板i從下游側搬 送部C被搬送到中轉搬送部B之前,先將中轉送風式支撐工 具12切換到作動狀態,讓主昇降式推進力給予部%下降移 動到下降位置,副昇降式推進力給予部以上昇移動到上昇 位置,將主搬送補助送風工具19切換到供給停止狀態,副 搬送補助送風工具20切換到供給狀態,讓主搬送限制部件 25移動到解除限制位置,副搬送限制部件26移動到限制位 置,從而中轉搬送部B被切換到反方向副搬送狀態。 然後,讓副搬送推進力給予工具6作動,將玻璃基板i 以正常的搬送速度往副搬送方向Y的上游側搬送,副搬送第 1檢測感測器33—檢測到玻璃基板1,就將副搬送推進力給 予工具6所帶動的搬送速度減速到低速搬送速度來搬送玻 37 201221455 璃基板1,副搬送第2檢測感測器34檢測到玻璃基板丨時,則 從該檢測開始’在過了停止用設定時間後讓副搬送推進力 給予工具6的作動停止。此時,玻璃基板1被搬送到副搬送 方向Y的上游側終端位置位在適當位置。 在如上所述之使玻璃基板1位於適當位置的狀態下,實 施將主搬送補助送風工具19切換到供給狀態且將副搬送補 助送風工具2〇切換到供給停止狀態之送風狀態切換步驟, 同時使主昇降式推進力給予部5a上昇且使副昇降式推進力 給予部6a下降,而且,使副搬送限制部件26移動到解除限 制位置’從而將中轉搬送部B切換到反方向主搬送狀態。 之後,讓主搬送推進力給予工具5作動,以正常的搬送 速度將玻璃基板1往主搬送方向X的上游側搬送。 開始主搬送推進力給予工具5的作動之後,切換用設定 時間(玻璃基板1的全體被搬送到上游側搬送部A所需時間) 一過’中轉搬送部B就被切換到反方向副搬送狀態。 總之,由於在第1間隙gl設置主搬送補助送風工具19的 空氣供給部21,在第2間隙g2設置副搬送補助送風工具20的 空氣供給部21’並根據中轉搬送部b在副搬送狀態和主搬送 狀態之間的切換,將主搬送補助送風工具19及副搬送補助 送風工具20的狀態在供給狀態和供給停止狀態之間做切 換,既可在主搬送方向X和副搬送方向γ上精確地搬送玻璃 基板1 ’又可防範玻璃基板丨的破損於未然。 [其他實施態樣]

direction of the parallel horizontal direction (complete horizontal posture) also includes a posture (a substantially horizontal posture) in which the glass base is inclined by a predetermined angle (for example, an angle of 5 degrees or less or an angle of 10 degrees or less) in the horizontal direction. Further, the state in which the glass plate 1 is tilted in the horizontal direction is supported by, for example, manufacturing errors, or is intentionally realized by design. Incidentally, the intermediate air supply type control tool 12 is disposed in the positional fixed state, and is disposed in the intermediate transfer unit B such that the upper surface on which the clean air is ejected is located at a specific thrust force. In the tool 3, the height of the branch of the glass substrate of the branch building is further down. The upstream side air supply type support tool 11 and the downstream side air supply type support tool 13 have the same configuration as the relay air supply type floor tool 12, and are provided with a dust filter 14 and a blower fan 15, except for the size of the fan filter unit 16. The difference is the same except for this point. Further, the upstream side air supply supporting tool 11 and the downstream side air supply supporting tool 13 and the intermediate air supply supporting tool 12 are disposed at the same height. [Intermediate Transfer Unit] Next, the transfer transfer unit B will be described. As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the intermediate transfer unit b is disposed so that the pair of main conveyance driving force applying means 5 and the pair of auxiliary conveyance force applying means 6 are relatively moved up and down, thereby being freely switchable. The pair of main conveyance advances 24 201221455 The force application tool 5 is in contact with the lower surface of the glass substrate 1 to switch the conveyance direction of the glass substrate 1 to the main conveyance state in the main conveyance direction X (see FIG. 4) and to perform a pair of sub-transports. The driving force application tool 6 is in contact with the lower surface of the glass substrate 以 to switch the conveying direction of the glass substrate 1 to the sub-transporting state of the sub-transporting direction γ (see FIG. 5). In addition, the pair of main lift type propulsion power application parts 5a are arranged so that the support frame 9 which supports this is raised and moved by the main conveyance lifting operation tool 17 (refer FIG. 6), and the pair of main The fixed thrust force applying portion 5b or the pair of sub-fixed thrust force applying portions 上升 are raised at the same height (see FIG. 4) and are lowered and lowered (see FIG. 5) at a lower position than the raised position (see FIG. 5). mobile. In addition, the pair of sub-lifting type propelling force applying portions are also arranged such that the support frame 9 for supporting the lifting and lowering operation tool 18 is lifted and lowered by the pair of main fixed type propulsion unit or A pair of sub-fixing = the rising position of the same height of the propulsion-force giving portion 6b (see Fig. 5) and the lowering position (see Fig. 4) of the upper juice position and the lowering position (see Fig. 4) are freely moved up and down. In the example, the main transport lifting operation tool 17 and the sub-transport lifting operation X tool 18' are each made of gas red. Then, as shown in Fig. 4, the main lift type propulsion force is raised to the rising position when the portion is raised, and the auxiliary correcting force feed pin is lowered to the lowering position. The main 'transporting portion B is switched to the main transfer state. . When the main lift-up force application unit 5a comes into contact with the lower surface of the substrate i, the sub-lifting force application unit 6a is separated downward from the lower surface of the glass substrate 25 201221455 1 in the state of being switched to the transport state. In addition, as shown in Fig. 5, the main lift type propulsion unit 5a is lowered to the lowered position, and the sub-lift type propulsion unit 6a is raised to the up position. The intermediate transfer unit B is switched to the sub-transport state. . When the main lift-type propulsive force applying unit 5a is detached from the lower surface of the susceptor 1 in the state of being cut and moved to the μ-transfer state, the sub-elevation propulsion timing portion 6a contacts the lower surface of the glass substrate 1. . [Assisted air supply tool] As shown in Fig. 2, the intermediate transfer unit B is provided to be supported in a non-contact state in addition to the air supply type branch tool 2 (t air supply type support tool 12); The support of the air supply jade 19 and the sub-delivery of the lion to send the wind. The main transfer auxiliary air supply tool 19 and the sub-transportation auxiliary air supply unit are each provided with a clean air supply to the lower surface of the glass substrate 1 . The line supply unit (10) is supplied with a filter (not shown) and an on-off valve (not shown) on the way to clean the air white 1. All are equipped with 2 to send a subsidy to send the 19 and the job to pay the money to the wind king of 20 orders will be in! It can be switched to the state of the switch by the switching operation of the on-off valve.::: The glass substrate 1 above the part 21 is given to the clean state and stops from a _ narrow: two: part 21 Lifting, the spout is made up of a so-called air knife. Incidentally - μ is set as gas supply 21 (4), air supply is sprayed out σ2_ directly above the clean air. Further, as shown in Fig. 201221455, the air supply unit 21 is provided in the intermediate transfer unit B in a positionally fixed state, and the height of the discharge port 21a is located further downward than the upper surface of the blower support tool 2. . The main conveyance-assisted air-supply tool 19 is configured such that the air supply unit 21 is disposed in the intermediate transfer unit B and is formed in the pair of sub-transport propulsion power application tools 6 (the sub-lifting force application unit 6a) and the intermediate feed air. Among the pair of gaps between the support tools 12, the first gap gl on the upstream side in the main conveyance direction X and at least the first gap gl in the third gap g3 on the downstream side in the main conveyance direction X. In the present embodiment, as shown in Fig. 2, the main conveyance assist air blower 19 is configured such that the air supply unit 21 is disposed in both the first gap gl and the third gap g3. In the present embodiment, the air supply unit 21 provided in the first gap gl of the main conveyance air supply tool 19 is arranged in parallel along the sub-transport direction Y (in other words, in the present example, six in this example). Each of the plurality of air supply units 21 is traversed from the first gap gl in the plan view in the main conveyance direction X, and is traversed in the sub-transporting force application tool 6 located on the upstream side in the main conveyance direction X. It is provided between the adjacent rotating rollers 7 in the sub-transport direction Y. In the same manner, the air supply unit 21 provided in the third gap g3 of the main conveyance air supply tool 19 is provided in parallel in the sub-transport direction Y, and the plurality of air supply units 21 are each in the main conveyance direction by the discharge port 21a. The posture of the X is provided between the slewing rollers 7 adjacent to the downstream side in the sub-transporting direction Y from the third gap g3 in the plan view. Incidentally, as shown in Fig. 6, the support body 27 201221455 24 supporting the air supply portion 21 is located at the second time _ (or the second gap g2), and the gas supply is supported by the support 24 in a cantilever manner, and And the slewing roller 7, χ is set in the state in which the service direction γ is arranged in a row. In addition, as shown in Fig. 1, the air supply unit 21 provided in the main conveyance assist air blower 19 and the air supply unit 2 provided in the third gap (2) are arranged side by side in the present embodiment. Between the two air supply units 21 located at the most central side in the sub-transport direction 有, there are two revolving rollers 7 between the air supply unit 2 and the air supply near the outer side of the sub-transport direction γ. There are three rotary materials 7, and there are four rotary rollers 7 between the air supply portion 21 and the air supply portion 21 located on the outermost side in the sub-transport direction. In other words, as shown in Fig. 8, the air supply unit 21 attached to the main transport auxiliary air supply unit is a transfer ratio of the air supply unit in the central portion of the intermediate transfer direction γ of the intermediate transfer transport unit. In the state in which the distance between the air supply portions 21 on the end side of the sub-transporting direction Y is wide, a plurality of (in this example, six) are arranged side by side in the sub-transporting direction Y. In this way, the main conveying auxiliary air blowing tool 19 is disposed so as to supply a larger amount of clean air than the end portion side of the sub-transporting direction Y, and form an end portion higher than the sub-transporting direction γ of the glass substrate 丨. The side of the branch is not in contact with the central part of the support. In addition, the air supply unit 21 provided in the main conveyance assist air supply unit 19 is disposed as shown in Fig. 6 'crossing the LF^:gl, and the upstream side air supply type U and the towel are transferred.

In the operation of the main conveyance force 5 (the main lift type propulsion unit 5a), the glass substrate is conveyed to the downstream side of the main conveyance direction 〈 at the normal conveyance speed <S1>. At this time, the main conveyance auxiliary air supply tool 19 is switched to the supply state, because the clean air of the main lion is provided when the wind guard is supplied, and the non-contact support upstream side air supply type support guard (10) towel transfer wind type branch building tool Since the glass substrate 丨 is formed on the gap formed between 12, the glass substrate 1 can be appropriately supported. In addition, since the sub-transporting and assisting air supply tool 2 is switched to the supply-stop state, it is difficult for the glass substrate to be lifted from the main conveyance force application tool 5 at both ends of the service direction γ, and the glass substrate can be given by the main conveyance force application tool 5. 1 Properly push the force. When the glass substrate 丨<s2> is detected by the main conveyance first detecting sensor 31, the main lifting force applying unit 5a is conveyed to the downstream side of the main conveying direction X. The operation speed of the main conveyance propelling force imparting tool 5 is decelerated, and the conveyance speed of the main conveyance driving force imparting tool 5 is decelerated to a low speed conveyance speed to convey the glass substrate 幻 <illusion>. After that, when the glass substrate is detected, the main conveyance second detection sensor 32 detects the time from the start of the spurt to the stop (the stalk substrate 检测 is detected by the main detection second detection sensor 32, and is transported to When the time required for the appropriate position is passed, <S4>', the main lifting force is given to the unit (the main conveying force is given to the tool to stop the operation <S5>. At this time, the glass substrate is magnetically transported to the downstream side of the main conveying direction X. The position of the terminal is in the appropriate position as shown in Fig. 35 201221455. In the state where the glass substrate is placed in the proper position, the guest will move the main tool 19_ hiding.

The order may be set as appropriate, and some or all of them may be performed at the same time. / In this case, the intermediate transfer unit B is switched from the main transfer state to the sub transfer state: the middle transfer unit B starts to break. The glass substrate (the transport W to the sub-transport direction Y is set to switch the main transport auxiliary air supply 419 to the supply stop state, and the miscellaneous lion is sent to the pickup __ supply form from /.' B is switched from the main transfer state to the sub-transport state, and is transferred in the intermediate transfer. Before the transfer of the glass substrate to the sub-transport direction Y is started in the PB, the wire feed limit (four) 25 is released to the release position. When the sub-transporting propulsion power is applied to the tool 6 to start the operation, the glass substrate 1 <S7> is transported to the downstream side of the sub-transport direction ¥ at a normal speed. At this time, since the main transport assist air supply tool 19 has been switched to the supply stop 36 201221455 In the state of the glass substrate 1, it is difficult for the glass substrate 1 to be lifted from the sub-transporting force application tool 6 at the both ends of the main conveyance direction x. Therefore, the sub-transporting force can be applied to the visor 6 to give an appropriate propulsive force to the glass substrate 1. The air supply unit 20 is switched to the supply state, and the clean air blown from the sub-delivery auxiliary air supply tool 2 is used to transfer between the non-contact support intermediate air supply support _12 and the downstream side air supply support tool 13. The glass substrate 1 can be appropriately supported by the glass substrate 1 in the gap formed. After the operation of the sub-transporting force application tool 6 is started, the switching time is set (the glass substrate 1 is transported from the intermediate transfer unit B to the downstream side). When the time required for the conveyance unit c is changed to <S8>, the intermediate transfer unit B is switched to the forward main conveyance state <S9>. Next, a case where the glass substrate 1 is conveyed in the reverse direction will be described. Incidentally, when the glass substrate 1 is transported in the reverse direction, before the glass substrate i is transported to the intermediate transfer unit B from the downstream side transport unit B, the intermediate feed air supply supporting tool 12 is first switched to the active state, and the main lift type is used. When the propulsion power supply unit % is lowered and moved to the lowering position, the sub-lifting-type propulsion power giving unit is moved up to the rising position, the main conveyance-assisted air blowing tool 19 is switched to the supply stop state, and the sub-transporting auxiliary air supply tool 20 is switched to the supply state, and The main conveyance restriction member 25 is moved to the release restriction position, and the sub conveyance restriction member 26 is moved to the restriction position, whereby the intermediate transfer conveyance unit B is switched to the reverse conveyance state. Then, the sub-transporting propulsion power is given to the tool 6, and the glass substrate i is transported to the upstream side of the sub-transporting direction Y at the normal transport speed, and the sub-transport first detecting sensor 33 detects the glass substrate 1, and the sub-transfer The transport speed of the transporting force imparting tool 6 is decelerated to the low speed transport speed to transport the glass 37 201221455 glass substrate 1 and the sub transport second detecting sensor 34 detects the glass substrate ,, then the test is started. After the set time is stopped, the operation of the sub-transport propulsion force giving tool 6 is stopped. At this time, the glass substrate 1 is transported to the appropriate position at the upstream end position of the sub-transport direction Y. In the state in which the glass substrate 1 is placed at the appropriate position as described above, the main conveyance-assisted air blowing tool 19 is switched to the supply state, and the sub-transporting auxiliary air blowing tool 2 is switched to the supply-stop state, and the air-state switching step is performed. When the main lift type propulsion unit 5a is raised and the sub-lifting force application unit 6a is lowered, the sub-transport restriction member 26 is moved to the release restriction position ', and the intermediate transfer unit B is switched to the reverse main conveyance state. After that, the main conveyance driving force is given to the tool 5, and the glass substrate 1 is conveyed to the upstream side in the main conveyance direction X at a normal conveyance speed. After the main conveyance driving force is applied to the tool 5, the switching setting time (the time required for the entire glass substrate 1 to be transported to the upstream side conveying unit A) is switched to the reverse side conveying unit. status. In other words, the air supply unit 21 of the main conveyance assist air blower 19 is provided in the first gap gl, and the air supply unit 21' of the sub-transport air blower 20 is provided in the second gap g2, and the sub transport state is in accordance with the intermediate transport unit b. Switching between the main conveyance air supply tool 19 and the auxiliary conveyance air supply tool 20 is switched between the supply state and the supply stop state, and can be switched between the main conveyance direction X and the sub conveyance direction γ. Precisely transporting the glass substrate 1' prevents damage to the glass substrate. [Other Embodiments] (1) In the above-described embodiment, the intermediate transfer unit B is switched from the main transport 38 201221455 state to the sub-transport state, and before the middle transfer direction is started, In the delivery unit B, the glass substrate 1 has been replaced by the main conveyance subsidy and the wind is supplied to the stop state, and the __ aid is exchanged with the chest; the state is provided, but the transfer unit can also be used.
