Substrate buffer clamp

Abstract

A substrate clamp includes a bar supporter having a end for connecting and fixing a substrate bearing apparatus; an arm extending from another end of the bar supporter and profiling an angle with the side wall of the bar supporter; and a buffer layer arranged on the side wall of the bar supporter. The present substrate clamp can effectively decrease the split problem of the glass substrate causing from the shocking and sliding in the clamping or moving of the manufacturing processes and enhance the product yield.

1 . A substrate clamp for a substrate bearing apparatus comprising: 
 a bar supporter, wherein a end of said bar supporter is used for connecting and fixing with said substrate bearing apparatus;    an arm extending from another end of said bar supporter and profiling an angle with a sidewall of said bar supporter; and    a buffer layer arranged on said sidewall of said bar supporter.    
   
   
       2 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein a terminal of said arm is a chamfered edge.  
   
   
       3 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein said angle of said arm extending is to make said arm parallel to a substrate bearing on said substrate bearing apparatus.  
   
   
       4 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein said buffer layer is fixed on said bar supporter by any one of the thermal compression method, the fusion bonding method, and other mounting method.  
   
   
       5 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 4 , wherein said sidewall of said bar supporter is arranged a trench for arranging said buffer layer therein.  
   
   
       6 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein said end of said bar supporter is arranged a locking hole for using a screwing element to connect and fix said substrate clamp with said substrate bearing apparatus.  
   
   
       7 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein the hardness of said buffer layer is smaller than said bar supporter.  
   
   
       8 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein said bar supporter is made of the polybenzimidezole.  
   
   
       9 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 1 , wherein a hardness of said buffer layer is HS55 to HS95.  
   
   
       10 . A substrate clamp, which is for a substrate in a substrate bearing apparatus, wherein said substrate clamp comprising: 
 a bar supporter, wherein a end of said bar supporter is for connecting and fixing with said substrate bearing apparatus;    an arm extending from another end of said bar supporter and profiling an angle with a sidewall of said bar supporter and parallel to said substrate; and    a buffer layer arranged on said sidewall of said bar supporter, wherein the hardness of said buffer layer is smaller than said bar supporter.    
   
   
       11 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 10 , wherein a terminal of said arm is a chamfered edge.  
   
   
       12 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 10 , wherein said buffer layer is fixed on said bar supporter by the thermal compression method, the fusion bonding method, or other mounting method.  
   
   
       13 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 12 , wherein said sidewall of said bar supporter is arranged a trench for arranging said buffer layer therein.  
   
   
       14 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 10 , wherein said end of said bar supporter is arranged a locking hole for using a screwing element to connect and fix said substrate clamp in said substrate bearing apparatus.  
   
   
       15 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 10 , wherein said bar supporter is made of the polybenzimidezole.  
   
   
       16 . The substrate clamp according to  claim 10 , wherein a hardness of said buffer layer is about HS55 to HS95.
