ABSTRACT:
A vertical heat treating apparatus includes a first boat elevator for carrying a first wafer boat between a wafer transfer region and a predetermined position in a heat treating furnace, and a second boat elevator for carrying a second wafer boat between the wafer transfer region and the predetermined position in the heat treating furnace. With this construction, it is possible to eliminate the problems of causing the position shift of the wafer boat, so that and it is possible to prevent the wafer boat from overturning. The apparatus also has cutouts formed in the lower end portion of the wafer boat, and guide members formed on the upper surface of a wafer transfer stage so as to be engageable with the cutouts. With this construction, if the positioning is forcibly carried out when the wafer boat is loaded on the wafer transfer stage, it is possible to correct the position shift to prevent the shift from accumulating, so that it is possible to prevent the wafer boat from overturning.
