Title:
GRAPHITE BOAT TRANSPORT MECHANISM USED IN PECVD APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/036488
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A graphite boat transport mechanism used in a PECVD apparatus. The graphite boat transport mechanism comprises: a vertical column (1) fixed to one side within a PECVD apparatus (9); a boat-pushing mechanism (2) fixed to another side within the PECVD apparatus (9); and a lateral boat-discharging mechanism (6) fixed to a bottom of the PECVD apparatus (9). The column (1) is fixedly provided, at intervals from top to bottom, with a plurality of temporary storage areas (3). The temporary storage area (3) has a temporary storage area central line (31) in a vertical direction. The boat-pushing mechanism (2) has a horizontally-extending SiC paddle (4). An elevator channel area (5) is provided between the SiC paddle (4) and the temporary storage area (3). The column (1) is also provided with a robotic arm (7) that moves up and down along the column (1). The robotic arm (7) grasps a graphite boat from the SiC paddle (4) and transport the graphite boat to within the elevator channel area (5). The lateral boat-discharging mechanism (6) is fixed to the bottom of the PECVD apparatus (9) at a location directly below the temporary storage area (3). The graphite boat transport mechanism prevents collisions between the robotic arm and a graphite boat transported on the lateral boat-discharging mechanism when the robotic arm grasps a graphite boat from a low position on the SiC paddle and transports the grasped graphite boat to the elevator channel area.
