The lock valve includes a valve flap adapted for sealing an aperture of the process chamber where a substrate to be processed may be inserted or ejected. A cooling unit is adapted for cooling the valve flap by means of a cooling fluid. At least one valve flap hinge is adapted for connecting the process chamber with the valve flap. The valve flap hinge furthermore includes at least one pipe in fluid communication with the cooling unit of the valve flap.
