図面を参照しながら、本発明の第1の実施の形態による処理装置1について説明する。図1は、処理装置1の構成を模式的に示すブロック図である。処理装置1は、噴射処理装置10と、主室11と、送り装置12と、入口シール室13と、出口シール室14と、排気装置15と、制御装置17と、圧力センサ18aおよび18bとを備えている。
第1モードでは、制御装置17は、シール室の圧力と外部圧力との差圧に基づいて、第1排気系統150を動作させるフィードバック制御を行う。この場合、制御装置17は、シール室圧力P1と第1の基準圧力である外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1を被制御変数として、第1伝達関数を用いて第1可変バルブ152の開度、すなわち電気制御弁の操作量を算出し、開度信号として第1可変バルブ152へ出力する。なお、第1伝達関数は、差圧ΔP1をPI制御やPID制御等のフィードバック制御するために第1バルブ152の操作量を算出するための関数である。本実施の形態における第1伝達関数の関数形に関して特別な制限はなく、被制御系の応答特性等に応じて、P制御やPI制御、PID制御等の伝達関数を適宜実装して用いることができる。その結果、入口シール室13および出口シール室14からの気体の排気量が調整される。
第2モードでは、制御装置17は、フィードバック制御は行わずフィードフォーワード制御を行うことにより第1排気系統150を動作させて、入口シール室13および出口シール室14から排気させる。この場合、制御装置17は、噴射処理装置10に噴射指令を出力すると同時に、第1可変バルブ152の電気制御弁の操作量を予め定められた値に設定して、開度信号として第1可変バルブ152へ出力する。たとえば、制御装置17は、第1可変バルブ152の電気制御弁の開度が最大開度に保持されるように開度信号を出力する。これにより、第1排気系統150は、第1可変バルブ152の開度に応じた排気量で動作する。なお、第1可変バルブ152の電気制御弁の開度は最大開度に保持されるものに限定されず、例えば最大開度の90%あるいは80%等予め設定された開度に保持されるものや、時間経過に応じて開度を変化させるものは本発明の一態様に含まれる。また、上記の電気制御弁の操作量は、後述する時間t1の経過後に第1モードにて気体の排気量を調整しても外部への気体の流出が抑制可能となるように、噴射処理装置10の処理により主室11内で急激に増加した不活性ガスを排気可能な排気量が得られる値として、実験等により予め計測され所定のメモリ(不図示)に記録されているものとする。なお、噴射処理装置10への噴射指令の出力と同時に第1排気系統150を動作させるものに限定されず、噴射指令の出力から所定時間遡って動作させるものや、噴射処理装置10からの噴射量に基づいて動作させるものについても本発明の一態様に含まれる。
なお、制御装置17は、第1可変バルブ152の電気制御弁の開度を変化させるものとしたが、第1ファン151の排気能力を変化させるもの、第1ファン151の排気能力および第1可変バルブ152の電気制御弁の開度の組み合わせを変化させるものについても、本発明の一態様に含まれる。
(1)制御装置17は、排気装置15の動作モードを第1モードと第2モードとの間で移行させることにより、第1排気系統150による排気量を調整してシール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1を制御する。第1モードでは、制御装置17は、シール室圧力P1と第1の基準圧力である外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1を被制御変数とし、第1伝達関数により算出される操作量にしたがって差圧ΔP1をフィードバック制御する。第2モードでは、制御装置17は、シール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1に関わらず排気量を所定の設定値に設定する。そして、制御装置17は、噴射処理装置10により主室11の内部に噴射される不活性ガスの噴射量T1が閾値T1aを超える場合、第1排気系統150の制御モードを第1モードから第2モードに移行させるようにした。
本発明の第2の実施の形態による処理装置を説明する。以下の説明では、第1の実施の形態と同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付し、第1の実施の形態との相違点を主に説明する。特に説明しない点については、第1の実施の形態と同じである。本実施の形態では、第2モードにて排気装置が動作することによるシール室圧力の低下に基づいて排気装置の動作モードを第2モードから第1モードに移行させる点で、第1の実施の形態と異なる。
制御装置17は、第2モードの継続中において、第1伝達関数により操作量の値を算出し、算出した操作量の値が閾値T2aを下回る場合に、第1排気系統150の制御モードを第2モードから第1モードに復帰させるようにした。したがって、時間計測の結果に基づいて第1モードに復帰させる場合に比べて、直接的に操作量に基づいて第1モードへ復帰できるので、差圧ΔP1をより高精度に所望の圧力に保持することができる。
本発明の第3の実施の形態による処理装置を説明する。以下の説明では、第1の実施の形態と同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付して、第1の実施の形態との相違点を主に説明する。特に説明しない点については、第1の実施の形態と同じである。本実施の形態では、処理装置の排気装置は、入口シール室および出口シール室から不活性ガスを排気するための第1排気系統に加えて、主室から不活性ガスを排気するための第2排気系統を備える点で、第1の実施の形態と異なる。
第3モードでは、制御装置17は、主室11の主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧に基づいて、第2排気系統160を動作させるフィードバック制御を行う。この場合、制御装置17は、主室圧力センサ20から入力した主室差圧信号に基づいて、主室圧力P2と第2の基準圧力である外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2を被制御変数として、第2伝達関数を用いて第2可変バルブ162および第3可変バルブ163の開度、すなわち電気制御弁の操作量を算出し、開度信号として第2可変バルブ162および第3可変バルブ163へ出力する。なお、第2伝達関数は、差圧ΔP2をPI制御やPID制御等のフィードバック制御するために第2可変バルブ162および第3可変バルブ163の操作量を算出するための関数である。本実施の形態における第2伝達関数の関数形に関して特別な制限はなく、被制御系の応答特性等に応じて、P制御やPI制御、PID制御等の伝達関数を適宜実装して用いることができる。制御装置17は、第2可変バルブ162および第3可変バルブ163の開度を相補的に制御して、主室11から第2ファン161を通して排気される不活性ガスの全量を一定に保ちながら、主室11に還流させる割合と、外部に排出する不活性ガスの割合とを変化させることにより、主室11から正味の排気量を増減する。たとえば、主室11から排気される不活性ガスの全量のうち20パーセントを主室11に還流させる場合には、80パーセントを外部に排出させるように、第2可変バルブ162および第3可変バルブ163の開度を調節する。
第4モードでは、制御装置17は、フィードバック制御を行わずフィードフォーワード制御をすることにより第2排気系統160を動作させて、主室11から排気させる。この場合、制御装置17は、噴射処理装置10に噴射指令を出力すると同時に第2可変バルブ162の電気制御弁の操作量を予め定められた値に設定して、開度信号として第2可変バルブ162へ出力する。たとえば、制御装置17は、第2可変バルブ162の電気制御弁の開度が最大開度になるように開度信号を出力する。これにより、第2排気系統160は、第2可変バルブ162の開度に応じた排気量で動作する。なお、第2可変バルブ162の電気制御弁の開度は最大開度に保持されるものに限定されず、例えば最大開度の90%あるいは80%等、予め設定された開度に保持されるものや、時間経過に応じて開度を変化させるものは本発明の一態様に含まれる。また、上記の電気制御弁の操作量は、後述する時間t2の経過後に第3モードにて気体の排気量を調整しても外部への気体の流出が抑制可能となるように、噴射処理装置10の処理により主室11内で急激に増加した不活性ガスを排気可能な排気量が得られる値として、実験等により予め計測され所定のメモリ(不図示)に記録されているものとする。なお、噴射処理装置10への噴射指令の出力と同時に第2排気系統160を動作させるものに限定されず、噴射指令の出力から所定時間遡って動作させるものや、噴射処理装置10からの噴射量に基づいて動作させるものについても本発明の一態様に含まれる。
なお、制御装置17は、第3モードおよび第4モードにおいて、第2可変バルブ162の電気制御弁の開度を変化させるものとしたが、第2ファン161の排気能力を変化させるもの、第2ファン161の排気能力および第2可変バルブ162の電気制御弁の開度の組み合わせを変化させるものについても、本発明の一態様に含まれる。
第3の実施の形態における実施例を次に示す。処理装置1を構成する主室11は1340mm×1300mm×590mmの寸法であり、約1.2m3程度の容積を有する。処理装置1は4台の噴射処理装置10を備え、そのうちの2台の噴射処理装置10は被処理物Sの表面に成膜処理を施し、残りの2台の噴射処理装置10は被処理物Sの裏面に成膜処理を施す。4台の噴射処理装置10は個別に噴射・停止が制御され、4台の合計の噴射量T1は、0m3/min、0.3m3/min、0.6m3/min、0.9m3/minおよび1.2m3/minの4段階のうちの何れかであり、最大1秒間隔で噴射量T1を増減させることが可能に構成されている。第1ファン151は、風量8.1m3/min、静圧2.1kPa、動力0.4kw/200Vにて動作する。第2ファン161は、風量12m3/min、静圧2kPa、動力0.4kw/200Vにて動作する。第1可変バルブ152の電磁制御弁、第2可変バルブ162の電磁制御弁および第3可変バルブ163の電磁制御弁は、1.5sec以下で全開~全閉の動作を行う。管路154は口径が40mmの配管であり、管路164は口径が80mmの配管である。
(1)第3モードでは、制御装置17は、主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2を被制御変数とし、第2伝達関数により算出される操作量にしたがって差圧ΔP2をフィードバック制御する。第4モードでは、制御装置17は、主室11の内部の圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2に関わらず排気量を所定の設定値に設定する。制御装置17は、噴射処理装置10によって主室11の内部へ噴射される不活性ガスの噴射量T1が閾値T1bを超える場合に、第2排気系統160の動作モードを第3モードから第4モードへ移行させるようにした。上記の構成を有することにより、入口シール室13、出口シール室14からの排気に加えて、主室11からの排気を行うことにより、主室11から入口シール室13、出口シール室14へ不活性ガスが流入する量を抑制できるので、短い期間でシール室圧力P1が外部圧力P0に対して所定の圧力だけ低圧となるようにすることができる。したがって、噴射処理装置10の噴射により主室圧力P2が大きく変動する場合であっても、主室11の外部への不活性ガスの流出および主室11内への外気流入を抑制して、主室11の気密性を向上できる。
本発明の第4の実施の形態による処理装置を説明する。以下の説明では、第3の実施の形態と同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付して、第3の実施の形態との相違点を主に説明する。特に説明しない点については、第3の実施の形態と同じである。本実施の形態では、処理装置は、以下の(1)、(2)の点で第3の実施の形態と異なる。
(1)シール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧に基づいて、第1排気装置の動作モードを第2モードから第1モードに移行させる。
(2)主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧に基づいて、第2排気系統の動作モードを第4モードから第3モードに移行させる。
制御装置17は、第2の実施の形態の場合と同様の処理を行う。すなわち、制御装置17は、第1伝達関数を用いて算出された操作量と、閾値T2aとの大小の比較とを、第1モードによる排気装置15の制御が継続されている間、所定の周期(時間間隔)ごとに行う。比較の結果、算出した操作量が閾値T2a以下である場合には、シール室圧力P1の低下によってシール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1が第1モードにより制御可能な圧力に低下したと判定し、制御装置17は、第2モードから第1モードに移行させて第1排気系統150を動作させる。
制御装置17は、第4モードにて第2排気系統160の制御を開始した後でも、主室圧力センサ20から入力した主室圧力信号に基づく主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2を被制御変数として、第2伝達関数を用いて第3可変バルブ163の開度、すなわち電気制御弁の操作量を算出する。制御装置17は、算出した操作量と所定の閾値T2bの大小を比較する。比較の結果、算出した操作量が閾値T2b以下である場合には、主室圧力P2の圧力低下によって主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2が第3モードにより制御可能な圧力に低下したと判定し、制御装置17は、第4モードから第3モードに移行させて第2排気系統160を動作させる。
制御装置17は、第4モードの継続中において、第2伝達関数により算出される操作量の値と閾値T2aとを比較し、閾値T2aを下回る場合に、第2排気系統160の制御モードを第4モードから第3モードに復帰させるようにした。したがって、時間計測の結果に基づいて第3モードに復帰させる場合に比べて、直接的に操作量に基づいて第3モードへ復帰できるので、主室11の気密性をより高精度に保持することができる。
(1)外部圧力P0を第1の基準圧力としてシール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1を制御し、シール室圧力P1を第2の基準圧力として主室圧力P2とシール室圧力P1との差圧を制御する。この場合、容量が小さいシール室の圧力を第2の基準圧力としているので、第2排気系統160は高い応答性にて排気可能となる。
(2)主室圧力P2を第1の基準圧力として、シール室圧力P1と主室圧力P2との差圧を制御し、外部圧力P0を第2の基準圧力として主室圧力P2と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP2を制御する。この場合、噴射処理装置10の処理により主室11内部で不活性ガスが急激に増加しても、シール室圧力P1と主室圧力P2との差圧を直接計測・制御するため、主室11内の圧力の変化に対して第1排気系統150はより高い応答性にて排気可能となり、シール室からの不活性ガスの流出および/またはシール室から主室内への気体の流入を抑制できる。また、上記差圧が大きく振動するハンチングをより発生しにくくできる。さらに、主室11内の圧力を第1の基準圧力とすることにより、制御対象となる差圧は、外部圧力P0を第1の基準圧力として差圧ΔP1を制御対象とする場合と比較して、小さな値となるので、第1排気系統150をより小さな動力にて駆動させることができる。
(1)主室11は入口111または出口112の何れか一方を備え、対応する入口シール室13または出口シール室14の何れか一方が設けられているものも本発明の一態様に含まれる。図10に、一例として、入口111と入口シール室13が設けられている場合を示す。この場合、制御装置17は、第1排気系統150に入口シール室13から排気を行わせることにより、シール室圧力P1と外部圧力P0との差圧ΔP1を制御する。なお、図10に示す例の場合には、ロールツーロール方式により主室11に搬入された被処理物Sのうち、処理が施された部分は主室11内部で巻き取りを行い留め置かれ、全ての被処理物Sに対して処理が終了した後、主室11から取り出せばよい。この場合、処理が施された部分に対して噴射処理装置10により噴射される微粒子がさらに付着しないように、主室11内にシールド室等の別室11aを設け処理済みの部分は別室11a内に搬入されるようにすることが望ましい。
(4)主室11内に複数の噴射処理装置を備え、それぞれの噴射処理装置が別々の噴射量および噴射タイミングで動作するものであってもよい。この場合は、各噴射処理装置の噴射量の合計量に基づいて閾値T1aおよびT1bを設定してもよい。
