As shown in FIG. 4, the transport tray 5 includes a body frame portion 5 a formed to have the same outer shape as the ring frame F. However, the outer diameter of the body frame portion 5a can be transported in the same manner as the ring frame F by the first and second transport means 50, 60, and if it can be held by the chuck table 10A, it is not limited to the ring frame F It is the same outer diameter. The main body frame portion 5a is provided with an opening 5b having an inner periphery larger than the outer shape of the workpiece W1. The opening 5b has a function of fixing the workpiece W1, and includes: an opening upper portion 5c that forms an opening slightly larger than the outer shape of the workpiece W1; and is formed below the opening 5b and supports the outer periphery of the outer periphery of the workpiece W1 The support part 5d; and the movement regulation part 5e which regulates the movement of the to-be-processed object W1 to the surface direction.

外周支持部5d係由開口部5b的下部的內周朝向中心突出預定長度而形成。例如,外周支持部5d係在本體框架部5被形成有開口的開口孔的下部的內周壁面,藉由熔接或接著劑等,固定有沿著內周壁面的周方向為一定寬幅的板狀構件。外周支持部5d係形成有比被加工物W1的外形稍微小的開口。在外周支持部5d的支持面5f係遍及全域形成有矽酮等合成樹脂。外周支持部5d係如圖6所示,支持被載置在開口部5b的被加工物W1的下面側的外周區域。 The outer peripheral support portion 5d is formed by the inner periphery of the lower portion of the opening 5b projecting toward the center by a predetermined length.

控制手段係控制加工裝置1的各構成要素者。例如,控制手段係與驅動加工進給手段30、割出進給手段、切入進給手段40的脈衝馬達的未圖示之驅動電路相連接,控制驅動電路,來決定吸盤台10A的X軸方向的位置、或加工手段20的Y軸方向及Z軸方向的位置。 The control means controls each constituent element of the processing device 1. For example, the control means is connected to a drive circuit (not shown) that drives a pulse motor of the machining feed means 30, the cut-out feed means, and the cut-in feed means 40, and controls the drive circuit to determine the X-axis direction of the chuck table 10A Or the position of the processing means 20 in the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction.

接著,說明實施形態1之加工裝置的動作例。若將被加工物W進行加工時,首先,加工裝置1的控制手段係控制匣盒載置手段92,且使匣盒91以Z軸方向作升降而定位在預定位置。接著,控制手段係控制第1搬運手段50,取出被收容在匣盒91的加工對象的被加工物保持單元U,例如搬運托盤單元U1A而暫時放置在軌條70。例如,第1搬運手段50係藉由夾持部51夾持搬運托盤單元U1A的本體框架部5a而由匣盒91取出搬運托盤單元U1A。 Next, an operation example of the processing device of the first embodiment will be described. When processing the workpiece W, first, the control means of the processing apparatus 1 controls the cassette placing means 92, and moves the cassette 91 up and down in the Z-axis direction to position it at a predetermined position. Next, the control means controls the first conveyance means 50 to take out the workpiece holding unit U of the processing object accommodated in the cassette 91, for example, conveys the tray unit U1A and temporarily places it on the rail 70. For example, the first transport means 50 grips the main body frame portion 5a of the transport tray unit U1A by the gripping portion 51, and takes out the transport tray unit U1A from the cassette 91.

接著,控制手段係控制第1搬運手段50,藉由吸附部52吸附保持被暫時放置在軌條70的搬運托盤單元U1A而搬運至吸盤台10A。例如,第1搬運手段50係如圖7所示,藉由吸附部52的吸附墊52a,吸附保持本體框架部5a的外周部而將搬運托盤單元U1A搬運至吸盤台10A。此時,搬運托盤單元U1A的被加工物W1係藉由移動規制部5e規制面方向的移動,且被固定在開口部5b。吸盤台10A係藉由保持面11a吸引保持搬運托盤單元U1A。接著,吸盤台10A係如圖8所示,在吸附部52的吸附墊52a由本體框架部5a的外周部被解放之後,藉由夾具部12夾持本體框架部5a的外周緣。在外周支持部5d的支持面5f係形成有合成樹脂,因此被支持面5f支持的被加工物W1係與吸盤台10A的保持面11a呈氣密狀態。藉此,被加工物W1係若在保持面11a作用負壓,透過外周支持部5d而被吸引保持在保持面11a。 Next, the control means controls the first conveyance means 50 to suck and hold the conveyance tray unit U1A temporarily placed on the rail 70 by the suction portion 52 and convey it to the chuck table 10A. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the first conveyance means 50 sucks and holds the outer peripheral portion of the main body frame portion 5a by the suction pad 52a of the suction portion 52 to convey the conveyance tray unit U1A to the chuck table 10A. At this time, the workpiece W1 of the transport tray unit U1A regulates movement in the plane direction by the movement regulating portion 5e, and is fixed to the opening 5b. The chuck table 10A sucks and holds the transport tray unit U1A by the holding surface 11a. Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the chuck table 10A is such that after the suction pad 52a of the suction portion 52 is released from the outer peripheral portion of the main body frame portion 5a, the outer peripheral edge of the main body frame portion 5a is clamped by the clamp portion 12. Since the support surface 5f of the outer peripheral support portion 5d is formed of synthetic resin, the workpiece W1 supported by the support surface 5f is in an airtight state with the holding surface 11a of the chuck table 10A. Thereby, when a negative pressure acts on the holding surface 11a, the workpiece W1 is sucked and held on the holding surface 11a through the outer peripheral support portion 5d.

接著,控制手段係實施被保持在吸盤台10A的搬運托盤單元U1A的被加工物W1的對準。接著,控制手段係控制加工手段20,且將被加工物W1進行切削加工。例如,加工手段20係藉由切削刀21,將被加工物W1未進行全切地,切削至被加工物W1的途中。若被加工物W1的切削結束,控制手段係控制第2搬運手段60,將被保持在吸盤台10A的搬運托盤單元U1A暫時放置在軌條70。接著,控制手段係控制第2搬運手段60,且將被暫時放置在軌條70的搬運托盤單元U1A搬運至洗淨手 段80。接著,控制手段係控制洗淨手段80,將搬運托盤單元U1A的被加工物W1洗淨而使其乾燥。接著,控制手段係控制第1搬運手段50,將藉由洗淨手段80使被加工物W1被洗淨及乾燥後的搬運托盤單元U1A暫時放置在軌條70。接著,控制手段係控制第1搬運手段50及匣盒機構90,將被暫時放置在軌條70的搬運托盤單元U1A收容在匣盒91的預定的收容棚架91b。 Next, the control means performs the alignment of the workpiece W1 held by the transport tray unit U1A of the chuck table 10A. Next, the control means controls the processing means 20 and cuts the workpiece W1. For example, the processing means 20 uses the cutting blade 21 to cut the workpiece W1 halfway without cutting the workpiece W1. When the cutting of the workpiece W1 is completed, the control means controls the second conveyance means 60 to temporarily place the conveyance tray unit U1A held by the chuck table 10A on the rail 70. Next, the control means controls the second conveyance means 60, and conveys the conveyance tray unit U1A temporarily placed on the rail 70 to the washing hands Segment 80. Next, the control means controls the washing means 80 to wash and dry the workpiece W1 of the transport tray unit U1A. Next, the control means controls the first conveyance means 50 to temporarily place the conveyance tray unit U1A after the workpiece W1 is washed and dried by the cleaning means 80 on the rail 70. Next, the control means controls the first conveyance means 50 and the cassette mechanism 90, and accommodates the conveyance tray unit U1A temporarily placed on the rail 70 in a predetermined storage shelf 91b of the cassette 91.

如以上所示,藉由實施形態1之搬運托盤5,具備有:支持被加工物W1的下面側的外周區域的外周支持部5d;及規制被加工物W1朝面方向移動的移動規制部5e者。藉此,若不需要實施用以將被加工物W1完全分離的全切,僅將被加工物W1載置在搬運托盤5即可固定,因此不需要黏著帶T,可大幅刪減加工成本。此外,由於可省略如習知般,將黏著帶T黏貼在環狀框架F,將被加工物W2黏貼在被黏貼在環狀框架F的黏著帶T來進行固定的作業,因此可減低作業的勞力。此外,搬運托盤5係形成為與習知之環狀框架F為相同外徑,因此無須改造習知之搬運手段,即可搬運被加工物W1,因此達成不會耗費導入成本的效果。 As described above, the transport pallet 5 of the first embodiment includes: an outer peripheral support portion 5d that supports the outer peripheral area of the lower surface side of the workpiece W1; and a movement regulation portion 5e that regulates the movement of the workpiece W1 in the face direction By. Thereby, if it is not necessary to perform a full cut to completely separate the workpiece W1, the workpiece W1 can be fixed only by placing it on the transport tray 5, so that the adhesive tape T is not required, and the processing cost can be greatly reduced. In addition, since it is possible to omit the sticking tape T to the ring frame F and fix the work W2 to the sticking tape T to the ring frame F for fixing, as is conventional, the work can be reduced Labor. In addition, since the transport tray 5 is formed to have the same outer diameter as the conventional ring frame F, it is possible to transport the workpiece W1 without modifying the conventional transport means, thus achieving the effect of not consuming introduction cost.

在此,若藉由凸狀的吸盤台10B吸引保持被固定在搬運托盤6的開口部6b的被加工物W1時,凸狀的吸盤台10B的保持面11b被插入在搬運托盤6的開口部6b。此時,保持面11b直接抵接於被加工物W1的底面來進行吸引保持,因此在外周支持部6d的支持面6f亦可未形成有合成樹脂。此外,外周支持部6d的寬幅方向的長 度H1係形成地比實施形態1的外周支持部5d的寬幅方向的長度H2為更短。此係由於凸狀的吸盤台10B的保持面11b必須強固地吸引保持被加工物W1,因此以儘可能加寬抵接於被加工物W1的底面的區域的方式予以設計,外周支持部6d係必須使其內周比保持面11b的外周為更大之故。 Here, when the workpiece W1 fixed to the opening 6b of the transport tray 6 is sucked and held by the convex chuck table 10B, the holding surface 11b of the convex chuck table 10B is inserted into the opening of the transport tray 6 6b. At this time, the holding surface 11b directly abuts on the bottom surface of the workpiece W1 for suction holding. Therefore, the supporting surface 6f of the outer peripheral supporting portion 6d may not be formed with a synthetic resin. In addition, the length of the peripheral support portion 6d in the width direction The degree H1 is formed to be shorter than the length H2 in the width direction of the outer peripheral support portion 5d of the first embodiment. In this system, the holding surface 11b of the convex chuck table 10B must strongly attract and hold the workpiece W1, so it is designed to widen as much as possible the area that abuts on the bottom surface of the workpiece W1. The outer peripheral support portion 6d is The inner circumference must be larger than the outer circumference of the holding surface 11b.

移動規制部6e係形成在外周支持部6d與本體框架部6a的交界,亦即開口部6b的內周壁面。移動規制部6e係形成為相對本體框架部6a的面方向為大致垂直。移動規制部6e係抵接於被載置於開口部6b的被加工物W1的側面W1c,以規制被加工物W1朝面方向移動。 The movement regulation portion 6e is formed at the boundary between the outer peripheral support portion 6d and the main body frame portion 6a, that is, the inner peripheral wall surface of the opening portion 6b. The movement regulation portion 6e is formed to be substantially perpendicular to the plane direction of the body frame portion 6a. The movement regulation portion 6e abuts on the side surface W1c of the workpiece W1 placed on the opening 6b to regulate the movement of the workpiece W1 in the face direction.

接著,說明使用搬運托盤6來搬運被加工物W1的搬運例。第1搬運手段50係如圖10所示,藉由吸附部52的吸附墊52a,吸附保持本體框架部6a的外周部來搬運至凸狀的吸盤台10B。此時,搬運托盤單元U1B的被加工物W1係藉由移動規制部6e規制面方向的移動,且被固定在開口部6b。凸狀的吸盤台10B係如圖11所示,藉由保持面11b,僅吸引保持搬運托盤單元U1B的被加工物W1。例如,當搬運托盤單元U1B被載置在凸狀的吸盤台10B時,保持面11b係由搬運托盤6上推被加工物W1,保持面11b抵接於被加工物W1的背面而吸引保持被加工物W1。在被加工物W1被吸引保持在保持面11b的狀態下,加工手段20係將被加工物W1進行切削加工。 Next, a conveyance example of conveying the workpiece W1 using the conveyance tray 6 will be described. As shown in FIG. 10, the first conveying means 50 sucks and holds the outer peripheral portion of the main body frame portion 6a by the suction pad 52a of the suction portion 52 and conveys it to the convex chuck table 10B. At this time, the workpiece W1 of the conveyance tray unit U1B regulates the movement in the plane direction by the movement regulating portion 6e, and is fixed to the opening 6b. As shown in FIG. 11, the convex chuck table 10B attracts and holds only the workpiece W1 of the transport tray unit U1B through the holding surface 11 b. For example, when the transport tray unit U1B is placed on the convex chuck table 10B, the holding surface 11b pushes the workpiece W1 from the transport tray 6, and the holding surface 11b abuts on the back surface of the workpiece W1 to attract and hold the Workpiece W1. In a state where the workpiece W1 is attracted and held on the holding surface 11b, the processing means 20 performs cutting processing on the workpiece W1.

如以上所示,藉由實施形態2之搬運托盤6, 具備有:比實施形態1的外周支持部5d較短地形成寬幅方向的長度H1的外周支持部6d;及規制被加工物W1朝面方向移動的移動規制部6e,藉此具有與實施形態1為同等的效果,並且可對凸狀的吸盤台10B,適當地搬運被加工物W1。例如,若由於必須強固地吸引保持被加工物W1,因此以儘可能加寬抵接於被加工物W1的底面的區域的方式設計保持面11b時,外周支持部6d不會有碰撞保持面11b的情形,可將被加工物W1搬入至凸狀的吸盤台10B。 As shown above, with the transport tray 6 of the second embodiment, Equipped with: an outer peripheral support portion 6d that is shorter than the outer peripheral support portion 5d of the first embodiment to form a width H1 in the width direction; and a movement regulation portion 6e that regulates the movement of the workpiece W1 in the face direction, thereby having 1 has the same effect, and the workpiece W1 can be appropriately transported to the convex chuck table 10B. For example, if it is necessary to strongly attract and hold the workpiece W1, if the holding surface 11b is designed to widen as much as possible the area that abuts on the bottom surface of the workpiece W1, the outer peripheral support portion 6d does not have the collision holding surface 11b In the case of, the workpiece W1 can be carried into the convex chuck table 10B.

[變形例] [Variation]

接著,說明實施形態2的變形例。以上說明外周支持部6d係在本體框架部6被形成有開口的開口孔的下部的內周壁面,藉由熔接或接著劑等固定有沿著內周壁面的周方向為一定寬幅的板狀構件的別體成形之例,但是外周支持部6d亦可與本體框架部6一體成型。此外,若將外周支持部6d與本體框架部6形成為別體成形,為了將外周支持部6d強固地固定在本體框架部6,亦可在本體框架部6的開口孔的下部的內周壁面設置用以嵌合板狀構件的外周支持部6d的凹部,在本體框架部6的凹部固定外周支持部6d。 Next, a modification of the second embodiment will be described. As described above, the outer peripheral support portion 6d is formed on the inner peripheral wall surface of the lower portion of the body frame portion 6 where the opening hole is formed, and is fixed by welding or adhesive to a plate shape having a constant width along the circumferential direction of the inner peripheral wall surface An example of forming a member separately, but the outer peripheral support portion 6d may be integrally formed with the body frame portion 6. In addition, if the outer peripheral support portion 6d and the main body frame portion 6 are formed separately, in order to firmly fix the outer peripheral support portion 6d to the main body frame portion 6, the inner peripheral wall surface at the lower part of the opening hole of the main body frame portion 6 A recess for fitting the outer peripheral support portion 6d of the plate-like member is provided, and the outer peripheral support portion 6d is fixed to the recess of the body frame portion 6.
