Abstract:
Provided is a system for supplying a liquid (such as an irritative chemical solution) safely. This liquid supplying system comprises: (a) a means that creates a negative pressure in a treatment chamber by driving a first depressurizing means and depressurizing the treatment chamber; (b) a means that introduces the negative pressure of the treatment chamber to a measurement chamber; (c) a means that maintains the negative pressure introduced to the measurement chamber; (d) a means that sucks a liquid from a container into the measurement chamber by employing the negative pressure of the measurement chamber; and (e) a means that sucks the liquid of the measurement chamber into the treatment chamber by employing a vacuum in the treatment chamber.

Claim (Index 1):
A liquid supplying system comprising:\n a processing chamber having a space of a predetermined volume; a first depressurizing means depressurizing the space of the processing chamber; a container containing a liquid; a measuring chamber measuring the liquid; a first passage connecting the container and the processing chamber through the measuring chamber; a first valve disposed on the first passage between the container and the measuring chamber; a second valve disposed on the first passage between the measuring chamber and the processing chamber; and a control part controlling the depressurizing means, the first valve, and the second valve, wherein the control part includes a) a first means executing a first process of driving the first depressurizing means to depressurize the processing chamber so as to form a negative pressure in the processing chamber with the second valve closed, b) a second means executing a second process of opening the second valve with the first valve closed so as to introduce the negative pressure of the processing chamber into the measuring chamber, c) a third means executing a third process of closing the second valve with the first valve closed so as to retain the negative pressure introduced into the measuring chamber, d) a fourth means executing a fourth process of opening the first valve with the second valve closed so as to suck the liquid from the container into the measuring chamber by using the negative pressure of the measuring chamber, e) a fifth means executing a fifth process of opening the second valve with the first valve closed so as to suck the liquid in the measuring chamber into the processing chamber by using a vacuum in the processing chamber.
