  • Patent number: 8960442
    Abstract: Wafer support shelves (10, 10) are each provided with wafer support projections (A, B1, B2) on which parts of the outer margins of a semiconductor wafer (W) are to be placed. In each case, one of the support projections (A, B1, B2) is provided on the far side of the center position of the semiconductor wafer (W), and two of the support projections are provided on the near side of the center of the semiconductor wafer. By means of this structure, in a state in which a lid body (3) is not attached to a wafer extraction/insertion opening (2), the flexure amount of the semiconductor wafers placed on the support projections of multiple locations in the wafer support shelves can be reduced with a minimal number of projections, so that a hindrance is not created to an operation such as extraction by a robot arm.

  • Patent number: 8464872
    Abstract: When a lid (20) is attached to a substrate removal/insertion opening (2) in a container body (1), a placement piece forcible displacement means (22) forcibly moves a substrate placement piece (4), which is provided in a region in the vicinity of the substrate removal/insertion opening (2), to a displacement position which does not overlap with a disc-shaped substrate (W). Thus, even if the disc-shaped substrate (W) is increased in diameter, there is no risk of the stored disc-shaped substrate (W) coming into contact with the substrate placement piece (4) due to factors such as vibration or impact, thus the disc-shaped substrate (W) can be stored more safely.
