发明名称 Universal substrate holder for treating objects in fluids
摘要 A universal substrate holder of the invention for treating wafer substrates in liquids is provided with a shaft and a rod slidingly inserted into the central opening of the shaft. The end of the shaft that protrudes into the bowl supports a base platform for the substrate, while the end of the rod that protrudes into the bowl has radial arms that rigidly support an annular plate with pins that can pass through the opening of the base platform so that they can support the substrate above the surface of the platform. The annular plate supports clamping jaws made in the form of two-arm levers with shorter arms and longer arms. The longer arms are heavier and therefore in the stationary state of the holder keep the jaws turned into an open position. When the shaft begins to rotate, the jaws are turned under the effect of centrifugal forces into positions of clamping the substrate with the shorter arms. When the rod is pulled down, the ends of the longer arms come into contact with the base platform and are turned into the clamping position. The substrate holder of the invention allows clamping and releasing of the substrate in positions of the substrate above the platform and in a position of the substrate on the base substrate, when the backside of the substrate is inaccessible to the process liquid.
