  • Patent number: 10527071
    Abstract: A fluid control apparatus includes a gas line unit detachably attached to a frame. The gas line unit includes a line support member to which a fluid control device is attached. The frame includes: a first horizontal frame member; and a second horizontal frame member located below the first horizontal frame member. The first horizontal frame member includes: a hooking member extending in a left-right direction; and a lower portion which is located below the hooking member and in which a plurality of first grooves that are open to front are formed. The line support member includes: a device placement portion; and a pair of side plate portions protruding rearward from right and left edges of the device placement portion. Each of the side plate portions includes: a base portion located below the hooking member; and an upper portion located above the base portion and behind the hooking member.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8282737
    Abstract: A CVD device has a reaction furnace (39) for processing a wafer (1); a seal cap (20) for sealing the reaction furnace (39) hermetically; an isolation flange (42) opposite to the seal cap (20); a small chamber (43) formed by the seal cap (20), the isolation flange (42), and the wall surface in the reaction furnace (39); a feed pipe (19b) for supplying a first gas to the small chamber (43); an outflow passage (42a) provided in the small chamber (43) for allowing the first gas to flow into the reaction furnace (39); and a feed pipe (19a) provided downstream from the outflow passage (42a) for supplying a second gas into the reaction furnace (39). Byproducts such as NH4Cl are prevented from adhering to low temperature sections such as the furnace opening and therefore the semiconductor device production yield is therefore increased.
