Abstract
The present invention allows a reticle-carrying container 11 to be fastened in a reticle stocker 2 even if the reticle-carrying container 11 is wrongly oriented. The reticle-carrying container 11 includes an interior with an opening at one end for storing a reticle 12, a door 14 for covering and blocking the opening, and a seal material 15 for sealing the interior hermetically when the door 14 closes the pod 13. The reticle-carrying container 11 is provided with two sets of kinematic pin grooves 61 for positioning and fastening the reticle-carrying container 11, which are turned 180 degrees from each other on the outer surface of the door 14. Receiving parts 22 for receiving and holding the kinematic pin grooves 61 are arranged in the positions corresponding to the kinematic pin grooves 61 on the outer surface of the pod 13 so that the two sets of kinematic pin grooves 61 can be engaged with the pins in both orientations.
