Abstract:
1. A noncontact rotating processor characterized by comprising: a container; a discoidal rotary head part that rotates with a subject to be processed mounted thereon, and that is accommodated in the container; means for magnetically transmitting rotating power, the means for magnetically transmitting rotating power being arranged below the container so as to be opposite to the rotary head part in non-contact therewith; and a magnetically fixing part which concentrically encloses the means for magnetically transmitting rotating power, and which magnetically positions the rotary head part in a predetermined position thereabove, the noncontact rotating processor characterized in that the rotary head part includes: a magnetically receiving means which receives rotating force; and a ring-shaped permanent magnet concentrically enclosing the magnetically receiving means, and the magnetically fixing part includes: a pinning member formed of a Type-II superconductor concentrically arranged opposite to the ring-shaped permanent magnet; and cooling means for cooling the pinning member, and further, is provided with lifting means for lifting the pinning members.
