Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vacuum leak detection, and in particular to a standard leak hole and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Vacuum leak detection technology is a technology that determines whether a vacuum system, container or device is leaking, and determines the location of the leak hole and the size of the leak rate. Common leak detection methods include pressure change leak detection, bubble leak detection, mass spectrometry leak detection and other methods. Among them, mass spectrometry leak detection has become one of the most widely used leak detection methods due to its high leak detection sensitivity. The mass spectrometry leak detection method uses a mass spectrometer to convert the flow of the leak-indicating gas leaking through the standard leak hole into the ion current of the mass spectrometer, and detects the leak rate by measuring the size of the ion flow signal.

[0003] A standard leak is a device with a constant leak rate under specified conditions. It is generally divided into a channel-type standard leak and a permeation-type standard leak. A permeation-type leak is a leak caused by the permeation of a leak-tester gas, while a channel-type leak is a leak caused by a channel that can restrict the flow of a leak-tester gas. Since the lower limit of the leak rate of a permeation-type standard leak is significantly lower than that of a channel-type standard leak, most mass spectrometers use permeation-type standard leaks. With the continuous improvement of leak detection technology, it is necessary to continuously reduce the leak rate of a standard leak. This can be achieved by using permeable materials with a lower permeability, increasing the film thickness, and reducing the permeation area of ​​the film. If the leak rate is to be reduced by several orders of magnitude based on the existing leak rate, the lower limit of the current standard leak has reached its limit.

[0004] In view of this, this application is specially filed. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] The technical solution of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0042] On the one hand, a standard leak hole 100 is provided in the embodiment of the present application, which can be applied to a mass spectrometer. For the specific structure of the standard leak hole 100, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , which includes a leakage hole body 130, which has a first gas barrier layer 131, a permeation layer 132 and a second gas barrier layer 133 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, wherein the first gas barrier layer 131 is bonded to the upper surface of the permeation layer 132, and the first gas barrier layer 131 is provided with an air inlet 1311 connected to the permeation layer 132; the second gas barrier layer 133 is bonded to the lower surface of the permeation layer 132, so that the permeation layer 132 is clamped between the first gas barrier layer 131 and the second gas barrier layer 133, and the leakage gas flows horizontally in the permeation layer 132.

[0043] According to the standard leak hole 100 of the present application, by arranging the first gas barrier layer 131 and the second gas barrier layer 133 on the upper and lower sides of the permeable layer 132, the lateral flow of the leakage-indicating gas in the permeable layer 132 can be controlled. Compared with the longitudinal flow of the leakage-indicating gas in the permeable layer 132, it is more conducive to adjusting the thickness of the permeable layer 132 from the millimeter level to the nanometer level, thereby significantly reducing the lower limit of the leakage rate of the standard leak hole 100.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the standard leak hole 100 also includes an upper flange 110 and a lower flange 120, the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 surround a receiving cavity 104 for receiving the leak hole body 130, and the bottom of the lower flange 120 is provided with an exhaust passage 122 connected to the receiving cavity 104; a first gap 101 is formed between the outer peripheral side of the permeable layer 132 and the upper flange 110, and a second gap 102 is formed between the second gas barrier layer 133 and the lower flange 120, wherein the standard leak hole 100 is constructed such that The leakage indicator gas flows into the permeation layer 132 through the air inlet 1311, and a part of the leakage indicator gas that passes through the permeation layer 132 passes through the first gap 101 and the second gap 102 in sequence, and finally flows out from the exhaust channel 122. By controlling the leakage indicator gas to turn multiple times in the permeation layer 132, the first gap 101, the second gap 102 and the exhaust channel 122, not only can the leakage indicator gas be made to flow horizontally in the permeation layer 132, but the leakage indicator gas can also be controlled to finally flow out of the exhaust channel 122.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the standard leak hole 100 also includes a pressure cap 140, which is penetrated by an upper flange 110 and is arranged in contact with the first gas barrier layer 131. The pressure cap 140 is provided with an air inlet channel 141 connected to the air inlet 1311, so that the leakage gas flows into the leak hole body 130 from the air inlet channel 141 of the pressure cap 140, and then passes through the first gap 101 and the second gap 102 in sequence, and finally flows out from the exhaust channel 122.

[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a third gap is formed between the pressure cover 140 and the first gas barrier layer 131, and a fourth gap 103 connected to the third gap is formed between the pressure cover 140 and the upper flange 110, wherein the standard leak hole 100 is constructed so that the leakage indicating gas flows into the air inlet channel 141, a part of the leakage indicating gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 and flows into the permeation layer 132 through the air inlet 1311, a part of the leakage indicating gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 and passes through the third gap and the fourth gap 103 in sequence, and is finally discharged into the outside, thereby further adjusting the lower limit of the leakage rate of the standard leak hole 100.

[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first gas barrier layer 131 is arranged below the upper flange 110, a third gap is formed between the pressure cover 140 and the first gas barrier layer 131, and a fifth gap connected to the third gap and the first gap 101 is formed between the upper flange 110 and the first gas barrier layer 131, wherein the standard leak hole 100 is configured so that the leakage-indicating gas flows into the air inlet channel 141, a part of the leakage-indicating gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 and flows into the permeation layer 132 through the air inlet 1311, and a part of the leakage-indicating gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 The leak-indicating gas passes through the third gap, the fifth gap, the first gap 101, the second gap 102 in sequence, and finally flows out from the exhaust channel 122. The leak-indicating gas turns multiple times in the leak hole body 130, the first gap 101 and the second gap 102 and the third gap, the fifth gap, the first gap 101 and the second gap 102, and finally flows into the exhaust channel 122. By adjusting the gas flow rate and flow direction of the leak-indicating gas, the leakage rate of the standard leak hole 100 can be significantly reduced, thereby obtaining a standard leak hole 100 with an extremely small leakage rate.

[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the upper flange 110 and the first gas barrier layer 131 are sealed together by the first seal 150, the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 are sealed together by the second seal 160, and the pressure cover 140 and the first gas barrier layer 131 are sealed together by the third seal 170, so that a part of the leakage gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 and passes through the third gap and the fourth gap 103 in sequence, and is finally discharged into the outside, and a part of the leakage gas passes through the air inlet channel 141 and passes through the third gap, the fifth gap, the first gap 101, the second gap 102 in sequence, and finally flows out from the exhaust channel 122.

[0049] As an optional embodiment, the first seal 150, the second seal 160 and the third seal 170 can be sealing rings. The sealing rings are simple in design and easy to use and maintain. The sealing rings have excellent sealing properties and can automatically improve the sealing effect under different pressures.

[0050] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 are respectively provided with a first connecting hole 123 for the first fastener 180 to pass through, so that the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 are fixedly connected through the first fastener 180. Exemplarily, the first fastener 180 can be a threaded fastener, and the first fastener 180 includes a first bolt 181 and a first nut 182. The first bolt 181 passes through the first connecting hole 123 set on the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 in sequence, and then the first nut 182 is sleeved on the threaded portion of the first bolt 181 and tightened, so that the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 are firmly connected.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the pressure cover 140 and the upper flange 110 are respectively provided with second connecting holes for the second fastener 190 to pass through, so that the pressure cover 140 and the upper flange 110 are fixedly connected through the second fastener 190. Exemplarily, the first fastener 180 can be a bolt fastener, which passes through the second connecting holes provided on the pressure cover 140 and the upper flange 110 in sequence to tighten and fix the pressure cover 140 and the upper flange 110.

[0052] As an optional embodiment, the permeation layer 132 is made of a material that has a slight permeability to the leakage indicating gas. The material of the permeation layer 132 can be a non-metallic crystalline material, such as quartz; the material of the permeation layer 132 can also be a polymer material, such as PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate); the material of the permeation layer 132 can also be a two-dimensional material, such as graphene, graphene oxide, etc.

[0053] As an optional embodiment, the material of the first gas barrier layer 131 and / or the second gas barrier layer 133 is a metal material, such as gold, platinum, aluminum and other metal materials. The first gas barrier layer 131 and / or the second gas barrier layer 133 are closely combined with the permeable layer 132 by coating, for example, a metal film is coated on the surface of the permeable film by vacuum coating. The air inlet 1311 on the first gas barrier layer 131 is a channel for the leak gas to enter the permeable layer 132, which can be obtained by using a mask method during the coating process of the first gas barrier layer 131.

[0054] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the lower flange 120 has a boss 121 for supporting the bottom of the second gas barrier layer 133, and the boss 121 is provided with an airflow groove 1211 extending in the length direction and / or width direction in the permeation layer 132. The airflow groove 1211 is connected to the exhaust channel 122, flows laterally in the permeation layer 132, flows out from the permeation layer 132 on both sides along its length direction, enters the first gap 101 and the second gap 102 in turn, and then enters the airflow groove 1211 of the lower flange 120, and finally flows out from the exhaust channel 122.

[0055] The leak body 130 can be made into a spherical, sheet-like, long cylindrical shape, etc. As an optional embodiment, the cross section of the permeable layer 132 is rectangular, that is, the permeable layer 132 is in sheet shape. The leakage rate of the standard leak 100 can be expressed by the following formula:

[0056]

[0057] In the above formula, Q is the leakage rate of the standard leak hole 100, Pa·m 3 / s;

[0058] K is the permeability coefficient of the permeable layer 132, Pa·m 3 / (s·cm 2 ·Pa·mm -1 );

[0059] A is the permeation area of ​​the permeation layer 132, cm 2 ;

[0060] D is the thickness of the permeable layer 132, mm;

[0061] W is the width of the permeable layer 132, cm;

[0062] L is the length of the permeable layer 132, cm;

[0063] H is the height of the permeable layer 132, mm;

[0064] p is the partial pressure difference of permeate gas between upstream and downstream, Pa.

[0065] When the material permeability coefficient K and the upstream and downstream pressure difference p remain unchanged, the leakage rate Q of the standard leak hole 100 is proportional to the area A of the permeable layer 132 and inversely proportional to the thickness D of the permeable layer 132. The leakage-indicating gas flows laterally in the permeable layer 132. The area A of the permeable layer 132 is the product of the width W of the permeable layer 132 and the length L of the permeable layer 132. The thickness D of the permeable layer 132 is equal to the height H of the permeable layer 132. With the development of thin film technology, the thickness of the film can be reduced from the millimeter level to the nanometer level. The leakage-indicating gas flows laterally in the permeable layer 132, which can greatly reduce the lower limit of the standard leak hole 100.

[0066] On the other hand, Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present application also provides a method for preparing a standard leak hole 100, comprising the following steps:

[0067] Step S1: coating a first gas barrier layer 131 on the upper surface of the permeable layer 132, and forming an air inlet 1311 with a predetermined size on the first gas barrier layer 131 by masking;

[0068] Step S2: coating the second gas barrier layer 133 on the lower surface of the permeable layer 132 , so that the first gas barrier layer 131 , the permeable layer 132 and the second gas barrier layer 133 form a leak body 130 ;

[0069] Step S3: the leakage hole body 130 is arranged on the lower flange 120, the upper flange 110 is pressed on the leakage hole body 130, a first sealing member 150 is arranged between the upper flange 110 and the first gas barrier layer 131, a second sealing member 160 is arranged between the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120, and a third sealing member 170 is arranged between the gland 140 and the first gas barrier layer 131;

[0070] Step S4: The first fastener 180 passes through the first connection holes 123 on the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 in sequence to fix the upper flange 110 and the lower flange 120 together;

[0071] Step S5: The second fastener 190 passes through the second connection holes on the gland 140 and the upper flange 110 in sequence to fix the gland 140 to the upper flange 110 .

[0072] According to the preparation method of the standard leak hole 100 of the present application, the standard leak hole 100 has the characteristics of small thickness, large area, and lateral flow of the leak-indicating gas. Compared with the standard leak hole 100 in which the leak-indicating gas flows longitudinally, by changing the flow direction of the leak-indicating gas while keeping the permeable material and structure unchanged, the leakage rate of the standard leak hole 100 can be significantly reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of lowering the lower limit of the permeable standard leak hole 100.
