Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention includes: a heat plate for heating a lower side of a substrate sliding on an upper surface; and a heat block for heating the heat plate. The heat block includes an air heating flow path for heating air which flows in from a bottom surface side and causing the air to flow out to the heat plate side, the heat plate includes air holes for discharging the air heated by the air heating flow path from the upper surface, the heated air discharged from the air holes forms a heated air atmosphere above the heat plate, and the substrate is transported through the heat air atmosphere. Thereby, curved deformation of the substrate is suppressed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A frame feeder for heating and transporting a substrate, comprising: a heat plate for heating a lower side of the substrate sliding on an upper surface of the heat plate; and a heat block which is attached to a lower side of the heat plate and heats the heat plate, wherein the heat block comprises an air heating flow path for heating air which flows in from a bottom surface side and causing the air to flow out to the heat plate side, the heat plate comprises air holes for discharging the air heated by the air heating flow path of the heat block from the upper surface, and the heated air discharged from the air holes forms a heated air atmosphere above the heat plate, and the substrate is transported through the heated air atmosphere, a flow rate of the air flowing through the air heating flow path is a flow rate at which a temperature of the heated air discharged from the air holes is substantially the same as a temperature of the upper surface of the heat plate. 2. The frame feeder according to claim 1 , wherein the air heating flow path of the heat block is a labyrinth flow path comprising at least one turn. 3. The frame feeder according to claim 2 , wherein the upper surface of the heat plate is open to the atmosphere, and the air holes diffuse the heated air atmosphere to surroundings. 4. The frame feeder according to claim 2 , wherein the heat plate is formed by a material having a thermal diffusivity of 1×10 −5 to 8×10 −5 (m 2 /sec). 5. The frame feeder according to claim 2 , wherein a plurality of the air holes in the heat plate is arranged side by side in a direction intersecting a transport direction of the substrate. 6. The frame feeder according to claim 5 , wherein the heat plate is formed by a material having a thermal diffusivity of 1×10 −5 to 8×10 −5 (m 2 /sec). 7. The frame feeder according to claim 1 , wherein the heat plate is formed by a material having a thermal diffusivity of 1×10 −5 to 8×10 −5 (m 2 /sec). 8. The frame feeder according to claim 7 , wherein the upper surface of the heat plate is open to the atmosphere, and the air holes diffuse the heated air atmosphere to surroundings. 9. The frame feeder according to claim 1 , wherein the upper surface of the heat plate is open to the atmosphere, and the air holes diffuse the heated air atmosphere to surroundings.
