摘要 |
The present invention is directed to a device for retaining substrates (S), such as wafers or silicon substrates for the production of photovoltaic elements. The device includes opposing walls ( 1 ) that are interconnected by at least two rod-like carrier elements ( 2, 3 ) that are provided with a retaining means ( 5 ) for retaining the substrates (S) in a vertical position oriented parallel to the walls ( 1 ). At least one rod-like counter carrier element ( 4 ) is also provided and interconnects the two walls ( 1 ). The counter carrier element ( 4 ) is positioned in relation to the carrier elements ( 2, 3 ) so that vertical movement of the substrates (S) relative to the walls ( 1 ) is limited and loading or unloading of the substrates (S) is possible at a slant in relation to the vertical direction (V).
