Drying furnace for coated film
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A drying furnace for heating up a substrate having an upper surface provided with a coated film and drying the coated film, the drying furnace comprising:
- a carrier port for the substrate which is formed on a side surface;
heating means which heats and dries the coated film of the substrate; and
feeding means which abuts against a lower surface of the substrate and moves an abutment position against the substrate during heating and drying of the coated film,wherein the feeding means is formed of a supporting pin which supports the lower surface of the substrate carried in from the carrier port, and a moving pin which moves vertically from a lower location to a higher location than the supporting pin by driving means and moves horizontally.

Abstract
In drying of a glass substrate to which a coated film is applied, the heating and drying is conducted while feeding means 10, 18, which always moves on a lower surface of the glass substrate 6 to which the coated film is applied, abuts against the substrate, in order to solve a problem that when the lower surface of the coated film is supported for a long time, supporting traces occur and thereby quality of the glass substrate is reduced. With this configuration, traces of the pin 11, 12, 21 are less likely to occur.
