The particle accommodating unit either rests in the particle supply apparatus main frame on a face (31c) at the bottom portion side during operation and, during transportation detached from the particle supply apparatus main frame, on a face (31d) other than the face at the bottom portion side. Or else, the unit (31) includes at an interior side face (31d) a gas accommodating pouch which is puffed up during transportation and evacuated during operation.</p> |
