  • Patent number: 11965597
    Abstract: The present disclosure is to provide a piston assembly in which a particle does not leak out of a cylinder, and including, in an embodiment, a piston body; a piston rod connected to the piston body; a first groove formed in an outer surface of the piston body; and a particle discharge flow path extending from an internal space of the piston body to the outer surface of the piston body.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 21, 2023
    Date of Patent: April 23, 2024

  • Patent number: 10930538
    Abstract: Disclosed are a substrate alignment apparatus, a substrate processing apparatus, and a substrate processing method using the substrate alignment apparatus. The substrate alignment apparatus and the substrate processing apparatus include a support plate and a plurality of guide units coupled to the support plate to align a position of the substrate. Each of the guide units includes an alignment pin for aligning the substrate in place and a stationary body having a support surface for supporting an edge region of the substrate aligned, the stationary part being fixedly coupled to the support plate. The alignment pin is rotatable about a central axis of the alignment pin relative to the support surface of the stationary part, thereby rapidly aligning the substrate and thus preventing the substrate transferred between a plurality of process chambers by a transfer robot from being separated or having a negative influence on other apparatuses.
