Publication number: 20170154803Abstract: A non-contact wafer transport device for transporting a wafer to be transported includes a base, a moving arm, a tube disposed in the moving arm and a negative pressure device. The moving arm is pivotally connected to the base, moves relatively to the base, and includes an operating end away from the base. The tube includes a channel that accommodates a fluid, and a suction port that is in communication with the channel and formed at the suction port. The negative pressure device, connected to the channel, generates a negative pressure upon the fluid in the channel to cause the suction port to form a suction force. The suction force acts on the wafer to be transported and causes the wafer to be transported to be kept at a distance from the operating end. Thus, without contacting the wafer, the wafer to be transported can be transported.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2015Publication date: June 1, 2017Inventors: Yi-Cheng WANG, Pech-Chin WANG, Han-Ming HUANG
