  • Patent number: 10665436
    Abstract: A plasma processing apparatus has a vacuum container having a processing chamber in which a wafer is processed by plasma and at least one member constituting the vacuum container movable and detachable in a horizontal direction with respect to a base plate. The plasma processing apparatus includes a lifter arranged at a side of the vacuum container across the vacuum container on the base plate, coupled to an end portion on the opposite side of a vacuum transfer chamber on which the wafer is transferred in a decompressed interior, and having a vertical shaft to move the detachable member vertically. The lifter includes: a coupling portion coupled to the vertical shaft and the detachable member and moved along the vertical shaft; and a turning shaft being a joint portion arranged at the coupling portion and having a vertical rotational shaft, the detachable member being horizontally turned around the turning shaft.
