[0010] Beneficial effects: During actual use, the power supply is supplied, and the two copper contact units and the heating tube form a closed circuit. The heating tube is used to heat the ironing plate. Before the ironing plate moves, the lower copper movable guide column abuts against the end of the upper copper top column and the spring is compressed. When the ironing plate moves along the guide rail to iron and seal the packaging box, the ironing plate moves away from the upper copper top column.

This makes it particularly convenient to disassemble the vacuum chamber and the ironing plate. The conductive structure of the copper contact unit is used to replace the traditional wire to avoid the problems of insulation aging, wire curling, signal interference, etc., which greatly improves the service life.

[0014] Combine the following Figure 1-3 , the present invention is further described.
[0015] A separate hot plate copper contact contact structure includes a copper contact unit, the copper contact unit includes an upper copper top column 10, a lower copper moving guide column 20, a spring 30 and a terminal 40, the upper copper top column 10 is fixed to the wall of a vacuum chamber 50 across, the outer end of the upper copper top column 10 located outside the vacuum chamber 50 is fixed with the terminal 40, an insulating fixing block 70 is fixed on the hot plate 60 located inside the vacuum chamber 50, a limiting hole is provided on the fixing block 70, the spring 30 is arranged inside the limiting hole, and the lower copper moving guide column 20 is arranged inside the limiting hole. One end of the moving guide column 20 abuts against the end of the spring 30, and the other end of the lower copper moving guide column 20 abuts against the inner end of the upper copper top column 10. There are two copper contact units and two limiting holes. A heating tube 80 is connected between the springs 30 of the two copper contact units. The heating tube 80 is arranged inside the ironing plate 60. The wiring terminals 40 of the two copper contact units are connected to the power supply. During the working and moving process of the ironing plate 60, the elastic force of the spring 30 is used to keep the lower copper moving guide column 20 always abutted and connected with the upper copper top column 10. During actual use, the power supply is supplied, and the two copper contact units and the heating tube 80 form a closed circuit. The heating tube 80 is used to heat the ironing plate 60. Before the ironing plate 60 moves, the lower copper movable guide post 20 abuts against the end of the upper copper top post 10 and the spring 30 is compressed. When the ironing plate 60 moves along the guide rail to iron and seal the packaging box, the ironing plate 60 moves away from the upper copper top post 10. At this time, the compression spring 30 performs a reset movement so that the lower copper movable guide post 20 always abuts against the end of the upper copper top post 10 to ensure the connection of the circuit. When the equipment needs to be disassembled for maintenance, because the lower copper movable guide post 20 and the upper copper top post 10 are contact-connected and there are no other connecting parts, the lower copper movable guide post 20 and the upper copper top post 10 can be directly removed when disassembling. In this way, it is particularly convenient to disassemble the vacuum chamber 50 and the ironing plate 60. The conductive structure of the copper contact unit is used to replace the traditional wire to avoid the problems of insulation layer aging, wire curling, signal interference, etc., which greatly improves the service life.
[0016] Furthermore, the outer ends of the two copper contact units are covered with sealing covers 90, and the sealing covers 90 are fixed on the vacuum chamber 50. The sealing covers 90 play the role of aesthetics and preventing electric shock.
[0017] Preferably, the outer end of the limit hole is closed, the lower copper moving guide post 20 and the upper copper top post 10 are both T-shaped, the T-end of the lower copper moving guide post 20 is inserted into the interior of the limit hole and forms an anti-dropout limit with the closed end of the limit hole, and the other end of the lower copper moving guide post 20 abuts against the T-end of the upper copper top post 10. The T-end of the copper moving guide post 20 is inserted into the interior of the limit hole and forms an anti-dropout limit with the closed end of the limit hole, and the anti-dropout limit can prevent the lower copper moving guide post 20 from detaching from the limit hole, and during the elastic resetting process of the spring 30, the T-end of the lower copper moving guide post 20 moves in the limit hole.
[0018] Furthermore, two fixing grooves are provided on the surface of the ironing plate 60 attached to the fixing block 70, and copper sheets 100 are placed in the two fixing grooves respectively, and the ends of the spring 30 are against the copper sheets 100, and the heating tube 80 is connected between the two copper sheets 100. The contact area between the copper sheet 100 and the spring 30 is large, which is convenient for electrical conduction, and the heating tube 80 can be designed to be U-shaped for easy connection.
[0019] Preferably, the upper copper top column 10 freely passes through the through hole on the wall of the vacuum chamber 50, and there is a gap between the outer peripheral surface of the upper copper top column 10 and the inner wall of the through hole. The outer end of the upper copper top column 10 is sleeved with an insulating outer fixing sleeve 110, and the outer fixing sleeve 110 is fixed to the outer wall of the wall. The inner end of the upper copper top column 10 is sleeved with an insulating inner fixing sleeve 120, and the inner fixing sleeve 120 is fixed to the inner wall of the wall. The inner fixing sleeve 120 and the inner wall of the vacuum chamber 50, and the inner fixing sleeve 120 and the outer peripheral surface of the upper copper top column 10 are sealed by sealing rings respectively. There is a gap between the outer peripheral surface of the upper copper top column 10 and the inner wall of the through hole of the vacuum chamber 50 to prevent the vacuum chamber 50 from conducting electricity.
[0020] Further, the outer fixing sleeve 110 is annular and is fixed by a nut, the inner fixing sleeve 120 is annular, a limiting groove 121 is provided in the middle of one side of the inner fixing sleeve 120, and the T-shaped end of the upper copper top column 10 is against the limiting groove 121, and the middle of the other side of the inner fixing sleeve 120 protrudes outward to form an annular flange 122, an installation slot is provided on the inner wall of the vacuum chamber 50, a through hole on the wall of the vacuum chamber 50 is connected to the bottom of the slot of the installation slot, and the annular flange 122 is inserted between the inner peripheral wall of the slot of the installation slot and the outer peripheral surface of the upper copper top column 10. The annular flange 122 not only increases the sealing effect of the inner fixing sleeve 120, but also can prevent the upper copper top column 10 from shaking, and prevent the upper copper top column 10 from contacting the vacuum chamber 50 and causing the vacuum chamber 50 to conduct electricity.
