Further, the upper buffer body has: an upper concave portion that accommodates an upper portion of the wafer carrier therein; and a pressing rib that is brought into contact with an upper end surface of a carrier main body and pressed against the upper end surface of the carrier main body without contacting with the lid body. Furthermore, the lower buffer body has: a lower concave portion and a support portion.
