A substrate transporting apparatus includes a wafer transfer arm 10 for carrying a plurality of semiconductor wafers W being processed horizontally, a pitch changer 20 for carrying the wafers W at predetermined intervals vertically and a posture changing device 30 positioned between the wafer transfer arm 10 and the pitch changer 20, for changing the posture of the wafers W to the horizontal and vertical arrangements. The pitch changer 20 includes a first holding part 21A and a second holding part 21B which are adapted so as to elevate relatively to each other. The wafers W are held by either one of the holding parts 21A, 21B at the predetermined intervals. The posture changing device 30 has a pair of holders 31 between which the semiconductor wafers W is interposed. The holders 31 are respectively provided, on their sides opposing each other, with a plurality of holding grooves 32A, 32B for retaining the wafers W independently. With the arrangement, the whole apparatus can be small-sized to improve throughput and yield of products.

An output apparatus to generate a decoration rule pattern comprises: a memory to store data indicative of a kind of pattern to be generated and data indicative of an output position of the pattern; and a making circuit to make a pattern on the basis of the data indicative of the kind of the pattern to be generated and the data indicative of the output position which are stored in the memory, wherein the making circuit continuously makes a plurality of units of the pattern to be generated, makes a rotation pattern (rotated version) of the unit, and makes a pattern of an edge portion of the pattern to be generated from the unit. With the apparatus, a decoration rule pattern can be drawn at the high speed and with high quality by rotating a pattern and repetitively generating a pattern.

A disk device, wherein a disk clamp unit is further thinned. The disk device is provided with a spindle motor (300) for positioning and rotating a disk, an alignment ring (301) fixed to the rotating shaft of the spindle motor, and a clamp section (400) for mounting the disk on the spindle motor (300). The alignment ring (301) is provided with a projection section (301C) formed around the rotating shaft of the spindle motor (300), and a magnet (302) provided around the rotating shaft with a space provided between the magnet (302) and the projection section (301C). The clamp section (400) is provided with a center member (401) having formed therein a recessed space (401G) in which the projection section (301C) is fitted, and also with a member (402) to be attracted which is attracted by the magnet (302). The clamp section (400) is adapted in such a manner that the disk is mounted on the spindle motor (300) when the projection section (301C) is fitted in the recessed space (401G) and attracted by the magnet (302).
摘要:
A cleaning and drying apparatus includes a cleaning bath 22 for collecting cleaning liquid and also discharging the liquid, a drying chamber 23 arranged above the cleaning bath 22 and a wafer boat 24 for conveying semiconductor wafers W between the cleaning bath 22 and the drying chamber 23. Dry gas nozzles 37 for ejecting dry gas are provided in the drying chamber 23. A shutter 36 is arranged between the cleaning bath 22 and the drying chamber 23, for insulating the cleaning bath 22 from the drying chamber 23. A central processing unit 60 controls respective operations of the dry gas nozzles 37 and a driving unit 52 for the shutter 36. With the arrangement, after the wafers W have been cleaned in the cleaning bath 22, the cleaning liquid is discharged through a bottom of the bath 22, while the dry gas is supplied from the dry gas nozzles 37 to contact with surfaces of the wafers W and the cleaning liquid in a first drying process. Next, a second drying process is carried out due to condensation of the cleaning liquid on the wafers and the dry gas. In this way, the improvement in drying efficiency and the reduction of consumed dry gas can be accomplished.

A data recording device that can easily and reliably manage a plurality of recording media or information recording surfaces even when a data compression rate largely varies with the contents of the data and that can record, for example, mass image data by effectively preventing the picture quality of an image represented by the image data from being degraded. The data recording device records image data after securing a region according to the preliminarily estimated number of recording media or information recording surfaces at the time of recording image data by using a coding method, by which a data compression rate largely varies with the contents of data. Thereafter, the data recording device records management date used for managing the plurality of recording media or information recording surfaces, on which the coded data is recorded, on the management region according to a result of recording.
