Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A heat treatment apparatus includes a cooling chamber configured to perform cooling of a treatment object, a conveyance chamber installed above the cooling chamber and configured to convey the treatment object, a lift table on which the treatment object is placed, and a lift mechanism having a driving apparatus installed above the lift table and configured to raise and lower the lift table between the cooling chamber and the conveyance chamber using the driving apparatus.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A heat treatment apparatus comprising: a cooling chamber configured to perform cooling of a treatment object; a conveyance chamber which is installed above the cooling chamber and is configured to convey the treatment object; a lift table on which the treatment object is placed; and a lift mechanism which has a driving apparatus installed above the lift table and is configured to raise and lower the lift table between the cooling chamber and the conveyance chamber using the driving apparatus. 2 . The heat treatment apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the lift mechanism includes: a cylinder serving as the driving apparatus and installed to pass through a ceiling section of the conveyance chamber; and a connecting section configured to support the lift table and connect the cylinder and the lift table. 3 . The heat treatment apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a tilt restricting mechanism configured to restrict tilting of the lift table with respect to a horizontal surface. 4 . The heat treatment apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising a tilt restricting mechanism configured to restrict tilting of the lift table with respect to a horizontal surface. 5 . The heat treatment apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the tilt restricting mechanism includes: a guide vertically installed in the cooling chamber; and a pair of rollers rollable on the guide with the guide sandwiched therebetween and rotatably attached to the lift mechanism. 6 . The heat treatment apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the tilt restricting mechanism includes: a guide vertically installed in the cooling chamber; and a pair of rollers rollable on the guide with the guide sandwiched therebetween and rotatably attached to the lift mechanism.
