ABSTRACT:
There are disclosed a method and an apparatus for drying a flat object. At least one flat object, whose surface is covered entirely with adhering water, is placed substantially vertically in at least one groove portion formed in a rack. The rack has a cavity portion formed therein, and the cavity portion communicates with the groove portion through at least one opening. The cavity portion of the rack is depressurized in order to suck water adhering to the surface of the flat object through the opening, thereby drying the flat object. It becomes possible to dry the flat object without causing problems which have been occurred in conventional drying methods.
