[Prior Art] In the manufacturing process of a liquid crystal panel or a semiconductor device, in order to improve the processing efficiency for various substrates, various processing devices are disposed along the carrier line of the substrate, and various substrates are processed on the substrate while transporting the substrate by transporting the rollers. The process is known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In the in-line substrate processing system, the transport roller is disposed along the substrate transport direction, and the glass substrate is transported on the transport roller to perform various processes such as development processing or cleaning processing during transport. [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2004-281991. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the substrate processing system according to the in-line type, as the size of the substrate is increased, the deflection of the transport roller is likely to occur in the transport roller. Sub-ontology. When the conveyance roller is deflected, the conveyance speed or the conveyance performance of the substrate becomes unstable, which causes an inconvenience in that the processing quality of each treatment process is lowered. Further, not only a large-sized substrate but also a small-sized substrate must be handled, and it is necessary to carry out a plurality of substrates in parallel by shortening the necessity of the tact time. However, if the rotation accuracy and the horizontal accuracy of the conveyance roller are deteriorated, a speed distribution occurs in the roller axis direction, and the substrate -4-200824030 during conveyance is snaking, which may cause inconvenience in contact between the substrates. Therefore, in the conventional substrate processing system, it is difficult to process a plurality of substrates in parallel. 〇 It is an object of the present invention to provide a transport roller having stable handling performance even if the transport roller is elongated. Further, an object of the present invention is to provide a substrate transfer apparatus which can stably carry various substrates. Another object of the present invention is to provide a substrate transfer apparatus that can transport a plurality of substrates in parallel. The transport roller according to the present invention is a transport roller that transports various substrates, and has a cylindrical shaft and a shaft that is fitted to the shaft and arranged along the axis of the roller, and a substrate to be transported. a plurality of small rollers that transmit the conveying force to the substrate, and are fitted to the shaft, and maintain a predetermined interval between the two adjacent small rollers, and connect the spacers between the adjacent small rollers. And at least one pair of locking members that are fixed to the shaft and that are coupled to the small roller and that fix the small roller and the spacer. According to the present invention, the plurality of small rollers that transmit the transporting force to the substrate to be transported are held in a free state with respect to the shaft, and are coupled to the shaft via the locking member that is screwed to the shaft, thereby preventing undesired undulations. Stress deformation occurs in the inconvenience of small rollers. As a result, stable handling performance is achieved for the substrate. According to the substrate transfer device of the present invention, the plurality of transport rollers are provided along the substrate transport direction, and the plurality of transport rollers are coupled to each other at the axial ends of the transport roller, and are coupled to the transport roller. And drive the rotational driving force to the driving mechanism of the carrying roller, and the leveling mechanism that is connected to the frame of the connection and is adjusted to adjust the level of the carrying roller. In the substrate processing system in which a plurality of substrates are juxtaposed and processed at the same time, a speed is distributed in the roller axis direction to the conveyance roller, and a conveyance failure such as meandering occurs. In particular, when a large number of transport rollers are used to transport a plurality of substrates, even if the level of the rollers is slightly uneven, the level imbalance will increase, so that one or both of the substrates will be snaked. The inconvenience of contacting the substrates with each other occurs. As described above, in the present invention, a level adjustment mechanism for adjusting the level of the conveyance roller is provided outside the chamber on the one end side of the conveyance roller. By providing the level adjustment mechanism, stable handling performance can be obtained as a whole of the substrate processing system, and the plurality of substrates can be processed simultaneously. Further, by keeping the small rollers of the transport roller in a state in which the shaft is free from the shaft, the lock member is coupled to the shaft via the key, and the small rollers that directly transmit the transport force to the substrate can be stably obtained. The handling force is therefore complementary to the leveling mechanism. The large-sized substrate can be transported stably, and a plurality of substrates can be stacked to be handled. Since the stress deformation occurring when the small roller is coupled to the shaft is prevented from occurring, the conveyance roller having a stable conveying force can be realized. Moreover, since the leveling mechanism is provided outside the chamber for each of the transport rollers, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a meandering obstacle. [Embodiment] Fig. 1 is a view showing an example of a substrate processing system of a line type. In this example, an example applied to the development processing and the cleaning processing will be described. The development unit 1 (only a part of the development -6-200824030 unit) and the cleaning unit 2 are disposed along the substrate conveyance line L, and the substrate 3 passes through the development unit and the cleaning unit along the conveyance line L. The development process and the cleaning process are performed during the period. The substrate conveyance system has a plurality of conveyance rollers 4 disposed at predetermined intervals along the conveyance line L (only for one conveyance roller is attached with a symbol), and each of the substrates 3 is driven by the rotational driving force of the conveyance rollers. The conveying line L travels. The developing unit 1 has a developing chamber 1 〇, and the developing nozzle 11 is disposed above and below the transport roller in the developing chamber (for the sake of clarity, only one developing nozzle is attached with a symbol) The substrate 3 is subjected to a development process by a developing solution sprayed from the developing nozzle during transportation. When the development processing is finished, the substrate 3 is carried out from the developing chamber 10, and is carried into the cleaning chamber 20. The cleaning chamber 20 is a substrate in which a plurality of cleaning nozzles are disposed above and below the conveying roller arranged along the conveying line direction, and the substrate that retains the developing liquid is a cleaning liquid that is ejected from the cleaning nozzle during transportation. FIG. 2 is an example of the conveyance roller. The transport roller has a shaft 30 formed of a cylindrical metal tube, and the small rollers 3 1 to 3 8 are fitted to the outer circumference of the shaft at a predetermined interval. These small rollers function to convey the conveying force to the substrate by abutting against the back surface of the substrate to be conveyed, and are composed of a synthetic resin material having chemical resistance. Spacers 4 1 to 46 are fitted between adjacent small rollers. The spacers are also made of the same synthetic resin material as the small rollers. The small rollers that are adjacent to each other by mechanical bonding are bonded to each other by a key bond. The small rollers and spacers are not threaded for the shaft and are rotatable or movable for the shaft. 200824030 Moreover, the number of small rollers and spacers mounted on the shaft 30 can be set according to the length of the roller, for example, when the large substrate is transported, by adding a small roller that is fitted to the shaft 30. The number of spacers can correspond to the enlargement of the substrate. The mounting locking members 50a, 50b are adjacent to the small rollers 3, 34, and the locking members 50c are provided, and 50d is adjacent to the small rollers 35, 38. These locking members are made of a ring-shaped metal material or a synthetic resin material, and are screwed to the shaft 30. The locking member is keyed to the adjacent small roller, and functions to transmit the rotational driving force of the shaft to the small roller. Therefore, when the shaft rotates, the rotational driving force is transmitted to the locking member, and is transmitted to all the small rollers after being transmitted from the locking member to the small roller and the spacer via the key combination. All the small rollers are not fixed to the shaft and are maintained in a free state, so that unnecessary deformation does not occur, and stable rotation accuracy and handling performance can be obtained. A rotation support member 51 such as a bearing having a smaller outer diameter than the outer diameter of the small roller is provided at approximately the center of the shaft 30, and the locking members 50e, 5 Of are disposed on both sides thereof to rotate the support The member 51 is fixed to the shaft. The rotary support member 51 is a base 60 that is supported by the cavity via the struts 52. When a large glass substrate is transported, a considerable load is applied to the transport roller, and the transport roller is deflected. Thus, in this example, the approximately central portion of the carrying roller is supported by the base of the cavity via the rotating support member to prevent deflection. Further, by the support of the rotary support member, not only one portion but also a plurality of portions in the direction of the roller axis can be supported. Both end portions of the shaft 30 are supported by the cavities -8 - 200824030 walls 62a, 62b via bearings 6 1 a, 6 1 b. Therefore, the carrying roller of this example is supported by three points of the both ends and the central portion of the roller. Further, since the side wall 62a is adjusted in the following degree, it is supported by the bearing so as to be rotatable and supported to be movable up and down. A portion of the fixed gear (helical gear) 70 projecting from the outside of the cavity side wall 62a of the shaft 30 transmits the rotational driving force transmitted via the rotary drive mechanism to the shaft. As the rotation drive mechanism, the drive shaft 72 to which the helical gear 71 is coupled extends in a direction orthogonal to the plane of the paper, and the rotational driving force is transmitted to each of the conveyance rollers. Further, in the shaft 30, the following level adjustment mechanism is coupled to the outside of the cavity side wall 62a. When two substrates are arranged in parallel for processing and when a large substrate is processed, the conveyance roller is elongated and the deflection is likely to occur. When the deflection occurs, there is a problem that the level of the conveyance roller is unbalanced, and the transportation obstacle such as meandering occurs. Thus, by providing the level adjustment mechanism outside the chamber, the level of the transport roller can be adjusted from the outside of the chamber. As a result, even when two substrates are processed in parallel, inconvenience such as meandering does not occur, and the problem that the substrates are in contact with each other can be solved. Further, the level adjustment mechanism is provided not only on the side where the rollers are conveyed. It can also be placed on both sides of the carrying roller. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a part of the transport roller shown in Fig. 2 in an enlarged manner, and the connection state of the shaft, the locking member, the small roller and the spacer will be described using the third drawing. Four small rollers 31 to 34 are fitted to the cylindrical shaft 30. Each of the small rollers is movably mounted in the direction of the axis of the roller and the circumferential direction of the roller. The spacers are fitted between the adjacent small rollers. 4 1 to 4 3 ° The spacers are movably attached to the roller -9 - 200824030 sub-axis direction and the roller circumferential direction in the same manner as the small rollers. The annular locking members 50a, 50b are fixed to the shaft in the vicinity of the small rollers 3 1, 3 4 . The locking member is screwed to the shaft. Since the locking member is made of a metal material, the inconvenience caused by deformation does not occur even if the locking member is applied, but the small roller and the spacer are synthetic resin materials, so that stress occurs at the time of screwing. Deformation, which reduces the performance of the roller such as roundness. As described above, in the present invention, the small roller and the spacer are mounted in a free state with respect to the shaft, and the small roller and the locking member and the spacer are coupled by a key joint to be transmitted to the shaft. The driving force is transmitted to each small roller via a key combination. The small roller is in a free state for the shaft, so that unnecessary stress and deformation do not occur in the small roller, and excellent roundness can be obtained as the roller, and stable roller rotation accuracy can be achieved. In this example, the key rollers are formed in the small rollers 31 to 34, and the key members are formed in the locking members 50a and 50b and the spacers 41 to 43 to form a key bond. Therefore, the rotational driving force transmitted to the shaft 30 is transmitted to the locking members 50a' 50b, and is transmitted to the adjacent small rollers 31 by the key combination formed between the locking members and the small rollers. 3 4. The rotational driving force transmitted to the small rollers is transmitted to the small rollers 32, 33 via the spacers 41, 43. Hereinafter, the level adjustment mechanism of the transport roller of the substrate transfer device according to the present invention will be described. Fig. 4 is a side view showing the outer side of the chamber as viewed in the axial direction of the conveying roller. As an example, a mechanism for adjusting the level of the five transport rollers will be described. A helical gear 70 is coupled to each of the transport rollers (only one of the transport rollers is attached to the symbol for clarity of the drawing), and the helical gear 70 is coupled with an oblique 10-200824030 gear coupled to the drive shaft 72. 7 1, the rotational driving force of the drive shaft 72 is transmitted to each of the transport rollers. The drive shaft 72 is rotatably supported by four vertical frames 80 0 to 80 0d, and the four vertical frames are mounted to the base frame 81. The base frame 81 is fixed to the base 60 via the elevating mechanism 82, and by adjusting the elevating mechanism 82, the height of the drive shaft 72 in the vertical direction can be adjusted, and the height in the vertical direction of the transport roller can be adjusted. The level of the carrying roller is adjusted by adjusting the height in the vertical direction. Further, the level adjustment mechanism can be provided on both sides of the conveyance roller. Further, in this example, as a mechanism for adjusting the level of the five transport rollers, the number of the rollers to be transported is an example. The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made. For example, in the above-described embodiments, the development project and the cleaning project are explained as an example, but various projects other than the above-described projects are also applicable.
