Abstract
Disclosed herein is a spin drier for semiconductor material including a vertical shaft, a table located on the top of the shaft, support members for supporting thereon a semiconductor material, holding members for holding the outer periphery of the supported semiconductor material, and three or more chuck members, each said chuck member having a pin passing through the table, a chuck part mounted on the top of the pin, a weight eccentrically attached to the pin and a spring member for restoring the chuck part to a determined non-chuck position, whereby in rotation the weight is shifted to a radially outer position due to centrifugal force to thereby move the chuck part radially inwardly to hold upper surface portions of the outer periphery of the supported semiconductor material.
Claims8
A spin drier for semiconductor material, which comprises;
- a vertical shaft rotatably mounted within a housing;
- a horizontal rotary table located on the top of the shaft;
- support members positioned in the table and upwardly projecting from the table surface for supporting thereon semiconductor material;
- holding members to be contacted with the outer periphery of semiconductor material supported on the table;
- three or more chuck members for holding upper surface portions of the outer periphery of the support semiconductor material;
- each of said chuck members comprising a pin which passes through the table, a chuck part mounted on the top of said pin which during rotation of the table passes over the top of the supported semiconductor material, thereby holding the semiconductor material against any rise thereof, a weight eccentrically attached to said pin under the table, and a spring member for restoring said chuck part during non-rotation of the table to a determined angular position where said chuck part does not pass over the top of the semiconductor material.
