Existing million-bit το grade dynamic random access memory. To generate this type of dynamic random access memory, a large-capacity capacitor element is needed. It is used as a dielectric film material with large capacitance per unit area and metal oxide film material. =, = If it has tantalum pentoxide (Ta205) with a dielectric constant of about 20, or "barium titanate (BaTi〇3) with an electrical hanging number of about 300 or Europium titanate (SrTi〇3) or barium-titanium gill is a promising thin film material.

The organometallic gas feed material is selected according to the physical properties of the film to be produced. For example, to When manufacturing a metal oxide thin film composed of barium titanate, it is necessary to first convert three elements of barium (Ba), strontium (sr), and titanium (Ti) into compounds of barium, total, and titanium. -Trimethylacetamidyl-DPM (dipivaloylmethane DPM) compounds, and then dissolve these compounds in this paper standard China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 mm) '--- 312053 * — — — — — — — — — — I *.

Description of the invention (2) (please read the notes on the back before filling this page) to Generate respective feed liquid materials. After mixing these feed liquid materials uniformly at the required ratio to produce the main feed liquid, the main feed liquid is transferred to a vaporizer to generate the feed gas for use in the chemistry Vapor deposition device. "Even in a sealed box, this main feed liquid is still very easy to deteriorate and degrade, so it is not suitable to stagnate this main feed liquid in the conveying pipe. If the main feed liquid is heated or When exposed to the air, the main feed liquid will cause non-suspended valleys to easily generate Shendian particles, which will easily generate inferior films. Therefore, once the component liquid is mixed to feed the main liquid, the main liquid must be maintained in a stable state. It is also expected that the main feed liquid will be completely used up as soon as possible. In addition, the thin film deposition device can perform a small amount of control of the main liquid flow rate from a small grasp to a large flow rate, in a large flow range. Therefore, the liquid delivery device should be able to provide rigorous control over the flow of input liquid. When positive-displacement liquid-feeding devices are used for these purposes, it is known that such devices are equipped with a mass flow controller (MFC), which is installed in the printed clothing connection of the staff consumer cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. A feed liquid tank and a processing device such as a vaporizer line, the feed liquid tank is pressurized by gas or the like to convey liquid, and a control valve on a mass flow controller (MFC) is adjusted to control The flow of the liquid. Positive displacement volume pumps are also used, along with pistons, diaphragms and similar objects. '' In general, those who use mass flow controllers for conventional devices have poor reproducibility for flow control near the lower limit of the allowable control range.

B7___ —______ V. Description of the invention (3) When the pressure in the processing device increases, Pu Tian must apply a pressure exceeding the pressure in the f device to the liquid tank. Therefore, the large gas used for pressurization breaks down the liquid fed into the liquid tank, and the dissolved gas is released downstream of the control valve of the flow controller, or an impulse or pulsation is formed in the fed liquid flow. . Although positive displacement pumps can overcome these shortcomings, piston pumps cannot be used because the particles generated by the sliding parts of the pump will contaminate the transported liquid. Positive displacement pumps using bellows-like containers or diaphragms do not contaminate the liquid, but present the following problems. It can be considered that a container is divided into two chambers by a diaphragm, that is, a liquid-feeding chamber and a working fluid chamber to construct such a positive volume pump, and an incompressible liquid is used as the working fluid. . With this configuration, the diaphragm is moved according to the amount of the working fluid supplied to the working fluid chamber, and the liquid is discharged from the trough. Therefore, the accuracy of the control flow is very high, V, the precision of the external drive system according to the crime. As a result, an external device is required to pump the working fluid, so a troublesome processing operation must be faced for the working fluid 'and the volume of the entire device becomes large. If a mechanical drive is built to drive the diaphragm, these problems are eliminated and the overall device is simplified. However, if the processing conditions (pressure) on the secondary side (downstream side) of the container are changed, it is not easy to control the operation of the diaphragm and it is not easy to maintain a constant flow rate of the transported liquid. Installing a flow meter on the secondary side of the container for feedback control, it is not possible to obtain better performance than a mass flow controller, because the flow rate of cancerous and regenerative properties of the flow meter is the same as that of the mass flow controller. .

Description of the invention (4) When the transportation of the liquid is stopped, it is because it is installed on the primary side (upstream side) of the processing device (the part that receives the liquid supply). A small leak in the check valve slowly reduces the pressure on the secondary side of the positive displacement pump. When the liquid delivery is resumed, it will cause the pressure to drop, and it will take time to stabilize: the body flow, which may cause other potential problems. For example, if the pressure in the processing unit is lower than atmospheric pressure, because the pressure drops below the vapor pressure of the feed liquid on the primary side of the check valve, the feed liquid may vaporize. Furthermore, in the positive displacement pump, when the pumping operation starts, a pressure change will occur in the pipeline on the secondary side of the pump, and therefore the liquid cannot be controlled until the liquid is transported stably. flow. For example, if multiple feed liquids need to be transported at the same ratio, these feed liquids cannot be used until the liquid transport is stable. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Because of the description of the inner valley, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a positive-displacement type liquid feeding device, which adopts a positive-displacement pump and a flexible diaphragm, with high precision and high reproducibility. Maintaining a constant flow rate to supply the liquid 'shortens the time required from the start of the fruiting operation to the stabilization of the liquid delivery, and immediately controls the liquid flow rate immediately after the start of the pumping operation. According to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a positive-displacement liquid-feeding device 'including a positive-displacement pump and a diaphragm driving unit, the pump including a housing, and a housing in the housing A flexible diaphragm-separated liquid-feeding chamber, and the diaphragm-driving unit is connected to the diaphragm to send fluid from the liquid-sending chamber; and a differential pressure control unit for controlling the pumping process The pressure difference between the two sides of the intestinal membrane is a strange paper.

Description of the invention (value. Therefore, since the diaphragm is directly driven by the diaphragm Driven by the unit, the structure of the device is simpler. Further, by keeping the difference between the two sides of the film-imparting-to-set value, the amount of deformation of the diaphragm can be maintained-and the error caused by the deformation of the diaphragm is eliminated. Therefore, the diaphragm driving unit can control the amount of deformation of the diaphragm and perform precise flow control. In a more advantageous form of the present invention, the differential pressure control unit includes a differential pressure sensor for detecting a pressure difference on both sides of the diaphragm, and a control valve, which is based on The signal from the differential pressure sensor controls the flow of liquid sent from the liquid-feeding chamber. In other words, the pressure difference between the two sides of the diaphragm is controlled so that the pressure difference is constant, resulting in the liquid flow indirectly. It is controlled. Therefore, the pressure of the liquid-feeding chamber can be adjusted indirectly by adjusting the control valve. If the dust force change from the liquid-feeding chamber to the space on the opposite side of the diaphragm is very low, for example: atmospheric pressure change The pressure sensor is limited to the side space facing the liquid-feeding chamber. In this case, 'on the secondary side of the diaphragm, a predetermined amount of liquid has not been turned forward according to the movement distance of the diaphragm. Conveying. Strictly speaking, when the pressure difference between the two sides of the diaphragm changes, the deformation of the diaphragm changes according to the pressure difference, and therefore the conveying quantity of the liquid deviates from the preset amount. Therefore, it is necessary to control the Pressure difference of diaphragm A constant value. For example, if you find the relationship between the position of the diaphragm and the amount of liquid being transported under a preset pressure difference, and control the pressure difference of the diaphragm, it is equal to the preset pressure difference when it is actually used. Under the pressure difference condition, the amount of liquid to be transported will be read on the back of the note.

Since the amount of liquid transported can be estimated from the relationship between the position of the diaphragm and the pressure difference, a preset amount of transported liquid can be accurately obtained. In a more advantageous form of the present invention, the flow sensor is arranged on the discharge channel. When the pressure in the liquid delivery chamber exceeds a set value or the absolute value of the pressure change rate exceeds a set value during the pumping process , Executes control based on the signal from the flow sensor. With this structure, precise control can be performed even when there are severe changes in system conditions. In a more advantageous form of the present invention, the liquid-feeding chamber is installed to facilitate the flow volume required to complete discharge in one stroke. With this configuration, the operation of the bellows-shaped container is always stable and balanced for each process, thus avoiding pressure and flow fluctuations, such as occurs when the switching valve is operated alternately. When only one part of a stroke is used to perform a pumping operation, the life of the bellows container can be further increased. In this case, the amount of fluid to be sent can form a predetermined volume of film on a circuit board (semiconductor wafer) in one stroke, or more than this volume. In a more advantageous aspect of the present invention, a gas is used to pressurize the space opposite to the diaphragm of the liquid-feeding chamber. Generally speaking, the diaphragm itself has an allowable pressure difference on both sides of the bellows-like container. When the pressure difference is small, or the pressure required by the processing device on the secondary side of the pump is greater than the allowable pressure difference, if one of the liquids is transported with the diaphragm -------- install --- ----- Order · -------- Line (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (2) 〇χ 297 mm 6 312053 Printed A7 by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs --- ..................... .. B7 --------- V. Description of the invention (7) The pressure of the other side is atmospheric pressure, so liquid wheel feeding cannot be performed. However, the gas is pressurized on the side opposite to the liquid feeding chamber. The pressure difference can be kept to a small value in order to maintain the pressure difference within an allowable range for the pumping operation. When the gas is charged, the pressure fluctuates on the primary side of the diaphragm. However, under this condition, it is advisable to keep the pressure difference of the pump fixed through the control valve. As described above, since the pressure difference of the diaphragm must be maintained at a constant value so that a fluid is supplied under a stream of f, the gas pressure ρ must also be kept constant. In the above example, during the pumping operation, the volume v of the diaphragm which is opposite to the one of the liquid-feeding chamber is changed. Therefore, the opposite side of the diaphragm to the liquid-feeding chamber should supply a considerable amount of gas, that is, ΔVxP, according to the amount of liquid delivered Δv. The method of controlling the pressure difference between the two sides of the diaphragm can use the pressure of the gas and the liquid 'to control the pressure of one side of the gas. However, it takes some time for the gas to be injected and sent, so that when the pressure suddenly changes, a control delay occurs. Therefore, the pressure difference can be changed more frequently, making it difficult to maintain the liquid at a set amount. However, this method can still be applied to operations without severe pressure changes. A leak sensor can be set in the space opposite to the liquid-feeding chamber to detect the fluid leakage caused by the broken diaphragm. With this arrangement, damage to the diaphragm can be detected. If the opposite side of the liquid delivery chamber is also filled with liquid to drive the diaphragm, it will be very difficult to detect the damage of the diaphragm. If the diaphragm is damaged, the liquid used to drive the diaphragm will be mixed with the liquid to be pumped.

Invention Description (8) The mixture is also pumped together. Since the position of the liquid discharged from the device was not changed, the damage could not be detected on a flow monitor. However, in the present invention, the breakage of the diaphragm can be detected by setting a decompression discharge port, for example, setting the discharge port on the gas side of the diaphragm, and setting a release sensor on the release port. Or on the secondary side. Furthermore, by keeping the pressure on the gas side lower than the pressure on the pump side at all times, it is possible to prevent gas from mixing into the pump side. Therefore, when the diaphragm is broken, the present invention can avoid the problem of mixing the pumped liquid with the driving liquid. Such problems are common with traditional fluid-driven diaphragm devices. In a more advantageous form of the present invention, a plurality of displacement volume pumps are arranged in parallel to deliver different types of fluids to a single processing unit. In a more advantageous form of the invention, two positive displacement volume pumps deliver the same kind of fluid to a single processing unit in a continuous manner 'alternately.

In the displacement liquid-feeding device, the liquid 14 contained in the liquid feed tank 12 is, for example, a kind of feed liquid. A positive displacement volume pump 10 supplies the liquid 14 to the processing device 16 by a set amount from the feed liquid tank 12. In this example, the processing device 16 is a vaporizer that supplies a deposition gas to a CVD reaction chamber 80 via a gas supply line 86. A gas injection head 82 is provided in the reaction chamber 80 for ejecting the supplied deposition gas toward the semiconductor wafer mounted on the base 84. The positive-displacement liquid-feeding device shown in Fig. 1 also includes an exhaust pump 88 and a ventilation line 90 to release the gas for the temple. The positive displacement volume pump 10 includes a housing 22 which is approximately cylindrical in shape. One end of the housing 22 is connected to an inlet pipe 18 'extending from the feed liquid tank J2, and the other end of the housing 22 is connected to one of the discharge pipes 20 of the processing device 16. An opening is formed in the center of the bottom plate of the casing 22.

Description of the invention (U)-(Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) A box-shaped container 24 (diaphragm film) is attached to the inner edge of the opening and extends concentrically with the carcass body 22 toward the center. The other end of the bellows-like container 24 is tightly closed with a gusset 26. This configuration of the housing 22 and the bellows-like container 24 forms a liquid-feeding chamber 28, which is capable of sealingly trapping liquid and changing its own capacity. Inside the bellows-shaped container 24, a working space 30 communicating with the outside air is also formed. An intestinal membrane driving device 36 is disposed in the working space ⑽. The intestinal membrane driving device 36 includes: a driving unit 32 having a driving source such as a motor (not shown); and an elongated rod 34 which is moved up and down by the driving unit 32's pushing. The gusset plate 26 is connected to the top of the elongated rod 34. The driving unit 32 is provided with a conversion mechanism (not shown), and the rotary motion is converted into a linear motion by a precession conveying mechanism or a mechanism having a similar function via the driving source. When the driving unit 32 is in operation ', the air-like container 24 extends and retracts in the axial direction, and thus changes the capacity of the liquid-feeding chamber 28 to supply a predetermined amount of liquid 14 to the processing device 16. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Wisdom Industry Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A pressure gauge 38 is provided on the housing 22 for measuring the pressure in the liquid delivery chamber 28. A control valve 40 is provided in the discharge pipe 20 and can control the degree to which the discharge pipe is opened. A signal from the pressure gauge 38 is input to the control valve 40. Adjust the opening degree of the control valve 40 according to the signal from the pressure gauge 38 to maintain the pressure P in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 at a strange value, and make the pressure slightly higher than the pressure PO in the working space 30 ( In this case, atmospheric pressure). The control valve 40 and the pressure gauge 38 constitute a differential pressure control unit 42. A flow meter 44 is provided in the discharge pipe 20 'on the upstream side of the control valve 40 to measure the flow rate of the liquid flowing in the discharge pipe 20. The paper size from this stream applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 14 312053 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economy 500822 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (15) The signal of the meter 44 This control valve 40 is also input. Thus, the flow meter 44 and the control valve 40 constitute a flow control unit 46 for controlling the flow rate of the liquid supplied to the processing device 16 through the discharge pipe 20. With this configuration, the displacement liquid feeding device can be selectively switched and controlled by the differential pressure control unit 42 or the flow control unit 46. Generally speaking, the controller is operating via the differential pressure control unit 42, and the control valve 40 is controlled according to a signal from the pressure gauge 38 to maintain the pressure difference at a constant threshold as described above. Under this kind of control, the flow rate of the discharge fluid can be maintained correctly and stably. The description of this process can be referred to FIG. 2. If the bellows-shaped container 24 is deformed at a constant rate, the discharge flow rate is expressed only as a function of one stroke of the diaphragm driving device 36. If a specific flow of liquid is required, then changing the stroke can be controlled to match that flow. However, because the bellows-shaped container 24 is elastic in nature, in addition to the deformation of the buckle plate 26 due to the tensile force, the pressure difference ΛP ( Δ! ≫#_! ≫ 〇), the wind-like container 24 is partially deformed. The solid line of the bellows-shaped container 24 is depicted in FIG. 2 to represent the bellows-shaped container 24 in equilibrium. If the pressure P in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 increases' and the pressure difference Δp increases, the bellows-shaped container can be deformed, as shown in Figure 2 by the double-short chain lines. Therefore, even if the position of the buckle plate 26 is not changed, the change in the pressure difference will cause the capacity of the liquid-feeding chamber 28 to change. When the bellows-shaped container 24 is operated while maintaining the pressure difference ΛP at a constant value, the random deformation of the bellows-shaped container 24 causes it to be in the fluid.

Description of Invention (16) Pressure change or pulsation can be suppressed to obtain stable flow control. Therefore, the position of the buckle plate 26 will match the capacity of the liquid-feeding chamber 28 in a one-to-one manner. Therefore, the discharge flow rate can be controlled accurately based only on the stroke of the diaphragm driving device 36. In some cases, it is not possible to monitor the pressure difference with a pressure gauge alone and adjust the flow rate of the liquid based on the pressure difference control stroke. For pressure gauges that measure the deformation of the internal diaphragm or similar objects to detect pressure, when a pressure change is detected, the bellows-like container has deformed and the flow rate has changed. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 exceeds a preset value, or the absolute value of the pressure change rate exceeds a predetermined value, it is determined that the system is in a fluctuating condition. At this time, the control mode is switched from monitoring the pressure difference with the pressure gauge 38 to monitoring the flow with the flow meter 44. This special arrangement enables the device to maintain a precise flow of liquid even under unstable conditions. Fig. 3 shows a positive displacement liquid feeding device according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The structure of the positive volume delivery device of the second embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment. The differential pressure control unit 42 in the first embodiment is replaced by a drive device control unit 50. The control unit is The pressure gauge 38 receives a signal to control the operation of the diaphragm driving device 36. In this embodiment, the relationship between the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 and the deformation amount of the bellows-shaped container 24 has been known in advance. The driving device control unit 50 pushes the diaphragm driving device 36 to offset the deformation of the bellows-like container 24 due to the pressure change in the liquid-feeding chamber 28, so as to keep the liquid flow rate at a constant value. · I I ----- ^ --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 16 312053 500822 A7 B7_ V. Description of the invention (17) The actual discharge flow rate Q from the liquid supply chamber 28 can be defined by the following equation, where Q is the set flow rate and V is the bellows-like container 24 due to the delivery The amount of deformation caused by the pressure P of the liquid chamber 28.

Description of the invention (20 to. According to the output signal of the leaking sensor 60, Yu Ji will perform, for example, a warning alarm sound or an automatic pump shutdown procedure. Proper actions to prevent accidents. Figure 7 shows a positive displacement liquid delivery device according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. Such a device includes: a positive displacement volume pump 10, the pump and the first The embodiment has the same structure; a check valve 100 is provided in the discharge pipe 20 extending from the displacement volume pump 10; and a liquid pressure sensor 102 for detecting the check valve Primary pressure of 100. The device goes further Including: a liquid-feeding chamber pressure sensor [04], which is used to detect the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28; a control valve, which is arranged upstream of the check valve 100; And a pressure control unit 108, which receives signals from the liquid pressure sensor 102 and the liquid supply chamber pressure sensor 104, and operates the control valve 106 and the driving unit 3 based on these signals 2 ° Therefore, 'the positive displacement type liquid feeding device of this embodiment individually controls the pressure on the primary side of the check valve 100' and the pressure in the liquid supply chamber 28. The positive displacement type liquid feeding of this embodiment The pressure of the device on the primary side of the non-return valve 100 during the period of stopping the delivery of liquid, that is, the pressure of the liquid contained in a pipe H0 connecting the non-return valve 100 and the control valve 106 is controlled to be less than the non-return valve The break-through pressure of 100 is also controlled above the vapor pressure of the liquid. At the same time, the pressure in the liquid delivery chamber 28 is also controlled to the pressure required for normal pumping operations (refer to, for example, the operating pressure in this document) At this time, the check valve 100 The secondary pressure is approximately 1.5 kg / cm2 (and 147 kpa). For example, when the breaking pressure is 2 kg / c gua 2 (= 196 kpa), the vapor pressure of the liquid in the internal side is 0.05 k / cm2 (and n ϋ ϋ nnnnnnnn I · nnnnnnn I. δν · ninnnn 1— I (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this page) This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 20 312053 500822 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (η) 49 kpa). In addition, for example, the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 is about 2.5 kg / cnl 2 (and 245 kpa), which is the same as the operating pressure. Even if the pressure on the primary side of the check valve 100 drops due to the leakage of the check valve 100, the pressure after the pressure drop is controlled to prevent the pressure from falling below the vapor pressure of the liquid. This method includes the step of driving the driving unit 32 to reduce the pressure of the liquid feeding chamber 28 to the initial pressure of the primary side of the check valve 100 (in one example, the pressure is 1.5 kg / cin2 and 147kpa) (Step 1) 'and a step of opening the control valve 106 (Step 2). Next, the driving early position 32 is driven to set the pressure on the primary side of the check valve 100 to its initial pressure (step 3), and then the control valve 10 is closed (step 4). Next, the driving unit 32 is driven to raise the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 to its initial pressure of 2.5 kg / cm2 (% 245 kPa) (step 5). If a drive signal is received from the pump during this operation, the entire system is in standby until the operation is complete. After the operation is completed, the pump can be driven to control the entire system. Since the procedure only takes 10 to 5 seconds to complete, there will be no delay in the process. Reducing the primary force of the check valve 100 will reduce the leakage of the check valve 100 by a large amount. In addition, by preventing the pressure from falling below the vapor pressure of the liquid, the formation of cavities in the tube 110 can be avoided. At the same time, it is also possible to prevent fluids that cannot be delivered with a preset flow rate until these cavities disappear and the pressure at least exceeds the breakdown pressure of the check valve 100. The pressure of the liquid feeding chamber 28 and the primary side of the check valve 100 should be set to be the same to prevent the check valve 100 from leaking. However, after starting the pump, raise the pressure of the liquid-feeding chamber 28 to a high enough level to meet the required flow rate. If necessary, please read the precautions below.

Explanation of the invention (22) The time for observation. Therefore, by setting the pressure in the liquid-feeding chamber 28 to a value corresponding to the operating pressure, the required flow rate of the fluid can be delivered without delay immediately after the start of the pumping operation. Specifically, after the pumping operation is started, the liquid is transported at a constant pressure for a full time to ensure that, as shown in Fig. 8, when the flow rate is increasing, the flow rate of the liquid can increase with time consumption. The amount increases proportionally, so it is established that a set flow rate Qs is obtained from the set time consumption amount%, and within the set time consumption amount ts, the flow rate can be strictly controlled. In this example, the tube U0 connecting the check valve 100 and the control valve 106 is very short 'and is constructed of a highly rigid material so that the pressure of the tube π 0 rises to the level of the liquid delivery chamber 28 even in the tube. When the pressure is the same, there is almost no volume swelling. Therefore, the pressure on the secondary side of the check valve 100 can be maintained at the operating pressure so that the required flow rate can be achieved immediately after the start of the pumping operation. However, if a hose or the like is used as the tube, when the pressure in the tube rises to the same pressure as the liquid-feeding chamber 28, the tube no may be inflated. At this time, the pressure of the liquid-feeding chamber 28 is set to (ρ + α), which is slightly higher than the pressure P during the pumping operation, so that the pressure on the secondary side of the check valve 100 can be immediately pumped open. It is then set to this operating pressure. The pressure α at this time is equivalent to the estimated value due to the volume expansion of the pipe Π0. Fig. 9 shows a positive displacement liquid feeding device according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention. This device includes a plurality of positive displacement volume pumps 10, which are similar to the pump structure of the first embodiment. These positive displacement volume pumps 10 are arranged in parallel form 'and each pump 10 can simultaneously deliver a different type of liquid to the processing device 16. In this example, the positive-displacement liquid-feeding device includes a plurality of feeding tubes — I — I — — — III — II —II — — — II ---- I--II (Please read the precautions on the back before (Fill in this page) This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 public love 22 312053 500822 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (23) Roads Π 2a to 112d, each of which is connected to the feed pipe A positive displacement volume pump 10 is used to feed the feed liquids A, B, C and D. These feed lines 112a to 112d are connected together to the secondary side of the check valve 100 and then to the process Device 16. In this embodiment, the positive-displacement liquid-feeding device controls the pressure of the feed lines 112a to 11 2d on the primary side of the check valve 100, so as to prevent leakage to flow through the feed lines U2a to 11 2d, respectively. The vapor pressure of each liquid is below. The device also controls the LiLi of each positive displacement volume pump pumping chamber 28 at the operating pressure, or a pressure slightly higher than the operating pressure, the higher the pressure value α is a certain pressure value for the volume expansion of these pipes. Therefore, as shown in Figure 10 It is shown that by setting a constant set time ts for each of the input liquids A, b, c, and D to obtain the set flow Qas, Qbs, Qcs, and Qds, any time consumption within the set time consumption% tG, the ratio of the flows QAG, QBG, QCG, and QDG of the input liquids a to D is the ratio of the set flow qas to Is (Qa0: QB0: Qco: QD0 = QAS: QBS: Qcs: qds). Therefore It is possible to control all mixing ratios immediately after the pumping process is started, so that the fluid delivered to the processing device 16 always has the same ratio of feed liquid ^ This method eliminates the feed liquid until the pumping operation is stable The problem that cannot be used before. Figure 11 shows the positive displacement liquid feeding device of the sixth embodiment of the present invention. This device includes two positive displacement volume pumps 10, which are the same as those of the first embodiment. The structure is similar. The two positive displacement volume pumps i 0 are arranged in parallel and are driven to alternately pump the same type of liquid to the processing device 16.

Description of the invention (24 ) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) These discharge pipes 20, and each control valve 106 is connected to the primary side of the check valve 100, and the check valve 100 The secondary side is connected to the processing device 16. An example of the control performed by the device of the sixth embodiment is described below with reference to the figure. For ease of explanation, the liquid delivery chamber 28 and the control valve 106 at the right position in FIG. Π will refer to the liquid delivery chamber A and the control, respectively. Valve A, however, the liquid delivery chamber 28 and control valve 106 at the left position in the figure will refer to, for example, the liquid delivery chamber B and the control valve B, respectively. When the control valves A and β are closed, the driving unit 32 of each positive displacement volume pump 10 is driven, and the pressure in the chambers A and β reaches the operating pressure (time% to t!). According to a pumping start signal, the control valve a is opened, and the liquid is sent from the liquid supply chamber A (time t2). After a preset period of time has elapsed, the flow rate from the liquid sending chamber A gradually decreases, and at the same time, the control valve B is opened and the liquid is allowed to be discharged from the liquid sending chamber b. When the flow rate of the liquid released from the liquid-feeding chamber B reaches a set flow rate, the control valve A printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs is closed (time t3-t4). During this period, the flow rate from the pump that started the pumping operation gradually increased, but the flow rate from the pump that was stopping the pumping operation gradually decreased at the same rate, so that the overall flow rate did not change. Through the alternate operation between the two pumps, the same amount of feed fluid can be continuously delivered to the processing device 16 without changing the flow rate. After the liquid-feeding chamber A is drained (time t5-t6), the liquid-feeding chamber A is pressurized so that the pressure rises back to the operating pressure (time t7-t8). After a preset period of time, the flow rate of the liquid released from the liquid-feeding chamber B gradually decreases, and the control valve A is opened at the same time to start sending liquid from the liquid-feeding chamber A. When the discharged flow rate of the liquid reaches the set flow rate, the control valve B is closed (at this time, the paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 24 312053 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 ------------— B7 ____ 5. Description of the invention (25) * t9-t1G) 'and repeat the program. As described above, the flow rate of the positive displacement volume pump M from the start of the pumping operation is gradually increased, but the flow rate of the pump from the positive stop of the pumping operation gradually decreases at the same rate, so that the overall flow rate does not change. Due to the alternating operation between the two pumps, the same amount of feed fluid can be continuously delivered to the processing device without changing the flow rate. 6 In this example, the tube I " connecting the check valve 1QQ and the control valve 1Q 6 is very short 5 and is made of a rigid material so that when the pressure in the tube rises to the same pressure as the pressure of the liquid supply chamber 28, the tube n 4 There is almost no volume expansion, so the waste force on the secondary side of the non-return valve 100 is maintained at this operating pressure so that the required flow rate is obtained immediately after the start of the pumping operation. However, if a hose or the like is used as the tube 114, when the pressure in the tube rises to the same pressure as the liquid-feeding chamber 28, a volume expansion may occur in the tube 114 at this time. This pumping operation is started, and the pressure of the liquid feeding chamber 28 is set to (P + α) ', which is slightly lower than the pressure p during the pumping operation, and the pressure on the secondary side of the check valve 100 can be pumped immediately. This starts to rise to this operating pressure. The pressure α at this time is equivalent to the estimated value due to the volume expansion of the tube η 4. As described above, according to the present invention, in a positive displacement liquid transport system, an elastic diaphragm is driven by an external driving mechanism. When the diaphragm shifts, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the diaphragm Controlling at a constant value 'therefore provides a small and delicate device to deliver liquids more precisely. This type of device is useful for the manufacturing process of semiconductor components. 0 (Please read the precautions on the back to write this page) Binding * ·-丨 绦 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Chu) 25 312053 A7 A7 _ V.
