Title:
DEVICE FOR DIVIDING AND FEEDING GAS FLOW FROM FLOW RATE- REGULATING DEVICE-EQUIPPED GAS-FEEDING EQUIPMENT TO CHAMBER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/114038
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A treatment gas with a predetermined flow rate (Q) is accurately and quickly divided and fed from gas feeding equipment having a flow rate regulating device into a chamber with a desired flow rate ratio (Q1/Q2). Opening/closing valve (OV1, OV2) are provided in branch feeding lines (GL1, GL2) for feeding a gas (G) with the predetermined flow rate (Q) to the chamber from a gas feeding equipment (1) having a flow rate-regulating device (QCS). Further provided are a bypass line (BL1) located on the downstream side of the valve (OV1) and branched from (GL1, BL2)located on the downstream side of the valve (OV2) and branched from (GL2), a pressure-type divisional flow rate regulator (FV) connected to the bypass line (BL1) and the bypass line (BL2), a pressure sensor (PS1) for measuring the pressure in the branch feeding line (GL1), and a pressure sensor (PS2) for measuring the pressure in the branch feeding line (GL2). With the structure above, the gas with a total amount of Q = Q1 + Q2 is fed in divided flows with desired divided flow rates (Q1, Q2) to the chamber (C) through shower plates (3, 4) fixed to terminals of branch feeding lines (GL1, GL2).
