A link mechanism constructed with a first, second and third link members forms a slider crank mechanism and the third link member is rotated by a drive of a forward/rearward actuator such as an air cylinder and chucking nails provided in them are protruded perpendicularly to a longitudinal direction of the first or second link member. A rotation of the chucking nail protruded perpendicularly is stopped by engaging with a disk and a spring member is bent by further forward or rearward movement of the second link member to energize the first chucking nail in a direction for maintaining an engagement with the disk. Thus, it becomes possible to chuck the disk with a predetermined force by only drive of the forward/rearward actuator.

In a method for transcripting fine patterns and an apparatus for transcripting fine patterns, the ingress of bubbles is prevented and patterns are transcripted with a high throughput by a relatively compact apparatus. For this purpose, a back surface of a stamper is vacuum sucked and the stamper is brought into close contact with a target of transcription with its surfaces coated with resist and pressure is applied thereto. At this time, the stamper is deformed into a spherical shape or bent to expand the close contact face from a central area to a peripheral area to prevent the ingress of air bubbles into between the target of transcription and the stamper.

A fine-structure transfer apparatus has a base plate, a first post and a second post erected on the upper surface of the base plate, an elongated stamper that is fixed at one end to the upper end face of the first post. The stamper is supported at the other end in a vertically movable manner by means of an ascending/descending unit provided on the second post. A transfer element holding stage is provided on the upper surface of the base plate between the first and second posts in a position that corresponds to the position of the lower surface of the elongated stamper where a fine pattern is formed. A pressure-applying unit is provided to reciprocate on the upper surface of the elongated stamper along a longitudinal direction thereof. The transfer apparatus is characterized by the ease with which the stamper can be detached from the transfer element.

The present invention relates to a double-sided imprint apparatus capable of simultaneously imprinting both surfaces of a transfer printing target such as a doughnut-shaped, circular disc substrate. The double-sided imprint apparatus includes: an upper surface stamper device that is supported by an elevation mechanism; a lower surface stamper device that is fastened to a transport table mounted on a guide rail; and a transfer printing target separator, in which the transport table moves back and forth along the guide rail with the aid of a transport drive mechanism, thereby allowing the lower surface stamper device and the transfer printing target separator to alternately move to a position facing the upper surface stamper device, which is positioned at the center of the upper surface stamper device.

A disk chucking mechanism constructed with first, second and third link members forms a slider crank mechanism and the third link member is rotated by a drive of a forward/rearward actuator such as an air cylinder and chucking nails are provided which protrude perpendicularly to a longitudinal direction of the first or second link member. A rotation of the chucking nail protruded perpendicularly is stopped by engagement with a disk and a spring member is bent by further forward or rearward movement of the second link member to energize a first chucking nail in a direction for maintaining an engagement with the disk. The disk is chucked with a predetermined force by only the drive of the forward/rearward actuator.

The present invention provides an imprinting apparatus or an imprint transfer method in which uniformity of curing quality by UV light is maintained and a uniform application thickness of a UV curable resin is achieved, even if glass is contaminated with dust and/or smudges or has a flaw. A feature of the present invention resides in an imprinting apparatus or an imprint transfer method that, while irradiating an transferred object with energy, transfers a concavo-convex configuration on a stamper's surface onto the transferred object and, subsequently, detaches the stamper from the transferred object, the imprint transfer method including: pressurizing a first reverse surface of at least one of the stamper and the transferred object with a planar pressurizing body having a flat surface configuration; subsequently, pressurizing a second reverse surface of at least one of the stamper and the transferred object with a fluid; and controlling pressurization timing of pressurization by the planar pressurizing body and pressurization by the fluid, thus completing the transfer.

A disc cleaning mechanism or device has a rotary brush having a rotary shaft on which a plurality of brushes are mounted and, between adjacent brushes of which a plurality of discs is inserted, and a disc revolution stopper for preventing the discs inserted between the brushes from revolving about the rotary shaft by rotation of the rotary brush and allowing the discs to rotate. The disc cleaning mechanism includes a core roller having an uneven inner peripheral portion of the brush as a core of the brush and an uneven outer peripheral portion and a rotary shaft on which a plurality of the core rollers are mounted. The brush and the core rollers constitute a spline joint.
