摘要:
An apparatus and method for producing positive and negative ions and/or electrons in a gas of any atmosphere without producing dust, a method and structure for neutralizing a charged body in a short period of time and for completely preventing static electricity from being generated, and various apparatuses and structures, such as a conveyor, wet bench, and clean room, which use the neutralizing method and structure. The gaseous ion producing apparatus produces positive and negative ions and/or electrons in a gas by irradiating, with electromagnetic waves in a soft X-ray region, the gas under a high pressure, atmospheric pressure, or reduced pressure. In the neutralizing structure an X-ray unit is arranged at an appropriate place to apply the electromagnetic waves in a soft X-ray region to the atmospheric gas surrounding a charged body.

An oxide film having a thickness of several tens to a hundred angstroms is formed on a metal surface or at least on its portion that comes in contact with an electrically charged material, the oxide film being formed in a highly pure oxidizing atmosphere. By using this contact member, the wafer potential can be maintained to be lower than 50 V at all times yet completely preventing the wafers from being contaminated (particularly, with metal).

At the abutting end faces of coupling members (1, 2), annular recesses (3, 4) having annular protrusions (5, 6) on the bottom face are provided while surrounding fluid channels (1a, 2a). A gasket (10) comprises a seal part (11) interposed between the protrusions (5, 6) of the coupling members (1, 2) while having an outside diameter smaller than the diameter of the annular recesses (3, 4), and a guide part (12) disposed on the outside of the seal part (11) while having an outside diameter being fitted in the annular recesses (3, 4). When the coupling members (1, 2) are fastened properly, the end faces thereof abut each other. An annular groove (14) is made in the outer circumference of the seal part (11) and a snap ring (13) fitted in the annular groove (14) couples the seal part (11) and the guide part (12).

A method for detecting abnormal flow rate by easily detecting an obstruction of an orifice while a fluid pressure flow rate controller using an orifice is controlling the flow rate. The method uses a flow rate controller (FCS) so as to calculate the flow rate Qc on the downstream side when the upstream-side pressure P1 is maintained at a value about twice or more the downstream-side pressure P2 from Qc=KP1 (K: constant) and to control the operation of a control valve (CV) according to a signal Qy representing the difference between the calculated flow rate Qc and a preset flow rate Qs. A testing circuit or flow rate setting circuit provided separately outputs a testing signal ΔQs having a testing amplitude V0 to the control valve (CV). The pressure amplitude V of a pressure variation ΔP1 of the upstream-side pressure P1 occurring in response to the opening/closing of the control valve (CV) is measured. When the pressure amplitude V decreases below a limit amplitude Vt, the obstruction of the orifice is announced, thus implementing the method. If the testing signal ΔQs is superimposed on a steady-state preset flow rate signal Qs0 and outputted together from the testing circuit or the flow rate setting circuit to the control valve (CV), an abnormal flow rate can be detected while controlling the flow rate by using the steady-state preset flow rate signal Qs0.

Summary The present invention provides a vacuum thermal insulating valve that may be used at high temperature in gas supply systems or gas exhaust systems, and also may be made substantially small and compact in size owing to its excellent thermal insulating performance. With a vacuum thermal insulating valve comprising a valve equipped with a valve body and an actuator, and a vacuum thermal insulating box that houses the valve, the afore-mentioned vacuum thermal insulating box S is formed by a square-shaped lower vacuum jacket S 5 having a cylinder-shaped vacuum thermal insulating pipe receiving part J on a side and with its upper face made open, and the square-shaped upper vacuum jackets S 4 , which is hermetically fitted to the lower vacuum jacket S 5 and with its lower face made open.
