A pillar for supporting the cover in a closed state is positioned within the hollow rotation shafts of the robot. Since the pillar supports a load applied to the cover by an atmospheric pressure, a thickness of the cover can be reduced, so that manufacturing cost can be reduced. Further, the robot is not interfered by the pillar when the robot rotates the processing target object W about the rotation shafts or moves the processing target object W in a radial direction.04-12-2012

20110062113SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A bypass route is provided in order to transfer a substrate without passing through the normal pressure transfer chamber, that is, a loader module, from a load lock chamber to a storage. In the bypass route, a sub-transfer unit for transferring the processed substrate from the load lock chamber to the storage is provided. The sub-transfer unit transfers the processed substrate from the load lock chamber to the storage, and a main transfer unit of the loader module returns the processed substrate from the storage to a transport container on holding stage.03-17-2011

20090003775OPTICAL COMPONENT AND ADAPTER INCLUDING THE SAME - An optical component is improved in workability during assembly operation thereof and makes it possible to easily position an optical fiber. A first ferrule is press-fitted into one end of a central hole of a connecting member, and a second ferrule is press-fitted into the other end of the central hole of the connecting member. An optical fiber is inserted through the first and second ferrules. A coating which coats an intermediate portion of the optical fiber of an optical fiber cord is accommodated in a communicating portion of the central hole of the connecting member in a manner such that the coating is brought into abutment with the first and second ferrules.01-01-2009
20100303417Optical connector device - An optical connector device has a first connector including a ferrule for holding an optical fiber and a guide portion projecting longer than the ferrule. The optical connector device also has a second connector for receiving an end of the ferrule along an optical axis of the optical fiber. The second connector includes a receiver for receiving the guide portion and a shutter having a cover part. The shutter is movable between a cover position at which the optical axis intersects the cover part and an open position at which the optical axis does not intersect the cover part. The guide portion is operable to move the shutter from the cover position to the open position when the guide portion is received into the receiver.12-02-2010
20110075974Optical connector and optical connector cable - An optical connector is selectively attachable to one of optical fiber cables including a first type optical fiber cable and a second type optical fiber cable. Each of the optical fiber cables includes a common optical fiber and a common ferrule fixed to the common optical fiber. The first type optical fiber cable further includes a tension member. The second type optical fiber cable further including a tensile member. The optical connector has a swage portion through which the common ferrule is inserted forward when one of the optical fiber cables is attached to the optical connector. The swage portion has an outer surface on which the tensile member is swaged when the second type optical fiber cable is attached to the optical connector. The optical connector also has a fixing portion having at least one receiver hole formed therein for receiving and fixing an end of the tension member of the first type optical fiber cable. The fixing portion is located forward of the swage portion.03-31-2011
