[0041] Further, the rotating mechanism 200 includes a buffer assembly 201 fixedly installed outside the lifting frame 107, which functions to provide support for the rotating mechanism 200 and to absorb vibration and gravity impact during the operation of the single crystal furnace, ensuring the stability of a placement disc 202, the buffer assembly 201 is provided with four groups, the top end of each group is fixedly connected with the placement disc 202, which serves as a support platform of the single crystal furnace, the center of the bottom end of the placement disc 202 is fixedly connected with a protective cylinder 203, which is used to protect a rotating shaft 209 and to provide structural support and guiding function for the rotation of the rotating shaft 209, at the bottom end of the placement disc 202, four connecting rods 204 are distributed in a circular array around the outer side of the protective cylinder 203, the connecting rods 204 connect the placement disc 202 with a mounting plate 205, ensuring the stability of the placement disc 202 and the support effect of the mounting plate, the rear side of the mounting plate 205 is fixedly installed with a servo motor 206, which serves as a power source of the rotating mechanism 200, and its output end is connected with a driving bevel gear 207 through a shaft coupling, the shaft coupling stably transmits the power of the servo motor to the driving bevel gear, while buffering the deviation that may be caused during rotation, the front side of the driving bevel gear 207 is meshingly connected with a driven bevel gear 208, the top end of the driven bevel gear 208 is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 209, the top end of the rotating shaft 209 penetrates through the mounting plate 205 and the protective cylinder 203 and extends to the top end of the placement disc 202, and is rotatably connected with the placement disc 202, the rotating shaft 209 is only used to drive the single crystal furnace to rotate, while the placement disc 202 remains stationary, as Figure 3As shown, one side of the rotating shaft 209 is provided with a square notch, and the bottom of the single crystal furnace is provided with a plug-in structure corresponding to the rotating shaft 209. The stable connection of the single crystal furnace and the rotating shaft 209 is realized through plug-in, so as to ensure that the single crystal furnace remains firm during rotation and meets the stability and reliability of operation.

[0042] Further, the lifting block 106 is provided with two, which are arranged on the left and right sides of the mounting column 101, and is the core moving part of the lifting mechanism 100. The lifting block 106 realizes lifting movement through threaded connection with the threaded rod 105. The left and right sides of the two lifting blocks 106 are rotatably connected with the rollers 108. The rollers 108 are slidingly connected in the sliding grooves 101a formed in the inner side walls of the left and right ends of the mounting column 101. The sliding grooves 101a provide the rollers 108 with guiding and limiting functions, so as to ensure that the lifting block 106 remains stable and does not deviate during vertical movement. Through the cooperation of the rollers 108 and the sliding grooves 101a, the stability and accuracy of the lifting movement are improved, and the operation accuracy of the rotating mechanism 200 and the single crystal furnace is avoided due to lateral shaking.

[0043] It should be noted that the lifting frame 107 includes the support plates 107a fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front ends of the two lifting blocks 106. The support plates 107a are the main bearing structure of the lifting frame 107, and are responsible for supporting and fixing the rotating mechanism 200 and the single crystal furnace. The front ends of the two support plates 107a are fixedly connected through the connecting plate 107b, which ensures the rigidity and stability of the overall structure of the lifting frame 107. The support plates 107a are provided in a hollow state at the center of the lifting frame 107, thereby providing space for the downward movement of some components (such as the protective cylinder 203 and the connecting rod 204) in the rotating mechanism 200, avoiding the blocking of the overall structure of the lifting frame 107 during movement. The protective cylinder 203 and the four connecting rods 204 are fixed between the support plates 107a and are linked with the mounting plate 205 and the placement disc 202 to form a complete rotating support system. The linkage design of the support plates 107a and the lifting blocks 106 enables the entire lifting frame 107 to move up and down synchronously with the lifting blocks 106, thereby realizing flexible adjustment of the height of the single crystal furnace while maintaining the normal operation of the rotating mechanism 200. Such design not only improves the functionality of the overall device, but also ensures the coordinated operation and efficiency improvement between modules.

[0044] Further, the four buffer assemblies 201 respectively include fixed blocks 201a fixedly installed at the left and right ends outside the two support plates 107a, the fixed blocks 201a serving as base support components of the buffer assemblies 201, responsible for firmly fixing the structures of the buffer assemblies 201 outside the support plates of the lifting frame 107, and providing a stable installation base for the entire buffer system. The top ends of the four fixed blocks 201a are telescopically connected with limiting rods 201b, the limiting rods 201b, through the telescopic structure thereof, jointly acting with the buffer springs 201c, play a role of guiding and limiting the movement range of the buffer assemblies 201, ensuring the up-and-down movement of the placement disc 202 to be stable and orderly, the outer surfaces of the four limiting rods 201b are all sleeved with the buffer springs 201c, the main function of the buffer springs 201c is to absorb the gravity impact force of the single crystal furnace during the placement process, providing effective shock absorption and buffering effect for the placement disc 202, protecting the placement disc 202 and other components of the rotating mechanism 200 from being damaged by excessive impact force, the bottom ends of the four buffer springs 201c are respectively fixedly connected with the upper surfaces of the four fixed blocks 201a, forming a stable support base, and at the same time ensuring that the compression and recovery actions of the buffer springs 201c can be accurately transmitted to the limiting rods 201b and the placement disc 202. The bottom end of the placement disc 202 is fixedly connected with the top ends of the four limiting rods 201b and the buffer springs 201c, serving as a direct bearing platform of the single crystal furnace in the rotating mechanism 200, the placement disc 202 effectively reduces the vibration and impact caused by the gravity of the single crystal furnace through the linkage of the buffer assemblies 201, improving the overall operation stability of the device, in addition, the buffer assemblies 201, through the cooperation of the fixed blocks 201a, the limiting rods 201b and the buffer springs 201c, ensure that the placement disc 202 can float up and down to adapt to the gravity change of the single crystal furnace, and at the same time provide reliable support for the rotating operation, ensuring the safety and stability of the single crystal furnace during operation.

[0045] Preferably, the rotating shaft 209 is rotatably connected at the center inside the protective cylinder 203 and the placement disc 202 through a bearing 210, the bearing 210 serves to provide low-friction rotating support for the rotating shaft 209, ensuring that the rotating shaft 209 operates stably and efficiently during rotation. Through the arrangement of the bearing 210, the direct friction between the rotating shaft 209 and the protective cylinder 203 and the placement disc 202 can be effectively reduced, the wear caused by long-time rotation is reduced, and the service life of the rotating shaft and related components is prolonged.

[0046] The embodiment realizes the height adjustment, direction adjustment and damping function of the single crystal furnace through the cooperation of the lifting mechanism 100, the rotating mechanism 200 and the buffer assembly 201. The lifting function is driven by the stepping motor 102 to rotate the driving spur gear 103, and the power is transmitted to the threaded rod 105 through the meshing driven spur gear 104, and the rotation of the threaded rod 105 is converted into the linear motion of the lifting block 106 through the thread pair cooperation with the lifting block 106. The lifting block 106 moves up and down along the mounting column 101, the rollers 108 on its two sides are embedded in the sliding groove 101a to provide guidance, ensure smooth movement and no deviation, and at the same time drive the lifting frame 107 fixed on the front end of the lifting block 106 and the single crystal furnace to synchronize lifting. The rotating function is powered by the servo motor 206, which transmits the rotation to the driving bevel gear 207 through the shaft coupling, and drives the driven bevel gear 208 to rotate through the meshing, and further drives the rotating shaft 209 fixed on the top to rotate. The rotating shaft 209 directly drives the single crystal furnace to realize direction adjustment through the plug-in structure, while the placing disc 202 remains stationary to ensure that other components are not disturbed during rotation. The damping function is realized by the buffer assembly 201, the gravity of the single crystal furnace makes the placing disc 202 and the buffer assembly 201 move downward, and the extension and retraction of the limiting rod 201b absorbs the impact force by the buffer spring 201c, protecting the placing disc 202 and the rotating mechanism 200 from excessive impact, and improving the stability and safety of the overall operation. Through the above design, the components are precisely linked to realize the high flexibility, stability and reliability of the single crystal furnace operation.

[0047] Embodiment 2

[0048] With reference to Figures 4-11 The second embodiment of the present application adds a clamping mechanism 300 on the basis of the first embodiment to realize automatic clamping and stabilization of the single crystal furnace.

[0049] Specifically, the clamping mechanism 300 comprises a fixed disc 301 fixedly installed at the top end of the lifting frame 107, the fixed disc 301 is sleeved outside the protective cylinder 203 and serves as a limiting support, providing a stable basis and guidance for the movement of the sleeve 302 and the sector plate 303, the top end of the fixed disc 301 is rotationally connected with the sleeve 302, the sleeve 302 can realize the rotation function at the top end of the fixed disc 301, and the rotation of the sleeve 302 is driven by the overall linkage of the clamping mechanism 300, so as to drive the two symmetrical sector plates 303 installed at the top end of the sleeve 302 to rotate synchronously, the rotation of the sector plate 303 is the key to the action of the clamping mechanism 300, the top end of the two sector plates 303 is respectively transmissionally connected with the two baffle plates 305 through the transmission rod 304, the rotational movement of the sector plate 303 is converted into horizontal linear movement through the transmission rod 304, the transmission rod 304 is relatively horizontally moved, and the horizontal movement of the transmission rod 304 further drives the two baffle plates 305 to slide on the front and back sides of the top end of the placing disc 202, the baffle plates 305 gradually approach in the sliding process, and the single crystal furnace placed on the placing disc 202 is clamped and limited through the relative sliding.

[0050] More specifically, the front and back ends of the outer wall of the protective cylinder 203 are symmetrically provided with the toggle levers 211, and the front and back sides of the sleeve 302 are symmetrically provided with the first arc grooves 302a matched with the two toggle levers 211, and the outer ends of the two toggle levers 211 are respectively slidably connected to the top ends of the two first arc grooves 302a. When the single crystal furnace is placed on the placing disc 202, the placing disc 202 is compressed downward by the buffer spring 201c due to the gravity of the single crystal furnace, and the placing disc 202 moves downward, driving the protective cylinder 203 to move vertically downward. The downward movement of the protective cylinder 203 further drives the toggle levers 211 to move vertically downward, and the outer ends of the two toggle levers 211 are slidably connected to the first arc grooves 302a. Since the groove wall of the first arc groove 302a is arc-shaped, when the toggle lever 211 moves vertically downward, the outer end thereof is horizontally offset under the guidance of the first arc groove 302a, forming a certain rotational torque, so as to drive the sleeve 302 to rotate around the connecting point.

[0051] Further, the inner part of the two fan-shaped plates 303 is provided with second arc grooves 303a, the front and back ends of the placement disc 202 are symmetrically provided with straight grooves 202a, and the ends of the two straight grooves 202a and the ends of the two second arc grooves 303a are on the same axis, the bottom ends of the two transmission rods 304 are respectively slidingly connected in the two second arc grooves 303a, the top ends of the two transmission rods 304 extend through the straight grooves 202a and extend to the top end of the placement disc 202, and the bottom ends of the two baffle plates 305 are fixedly connected. When the sleeve 302 rotates, the two fan-shaped plates 303 are driven to rotate synchronously, the second arc grooves 303a in the inner part of the fan-shaped plate 303 move by guiding the slidingly connected transmission rod 304, and the rotating motion of the fan-shaped plate is converted into the movement of the transmission rod 304. Due to the arc design of the second arc groove 303a, the bottom end of the transmission rod 304 approaches the center of the fan-shaped plate 303, however, due to the fact that the top end of the transmission rod 304 is limited in the straight groove 202a, the movement track of the transmission rod 304 is limited to straight line movement rather than arc movement, therefore, the transmission rod 304 completes straight line movement under the guidance of the straight groove 202a, thereby driving the two baffle plates 305 to approach each other, and the single crystal furnace is clamped and fixed.

[0052] In this process, the fan-shaped plate 303 serves as a motion transmission component of the sleeve 302, provides a movement path for the transmission rod 304 through the second arc groove 303a, converts the rotating motion into straight line motion, the straight groove 202a limits the movement track of the transmission rod 304, and ensures the stability and accuracy of the movement direction, and the transmission rod 304 serves as a key transmission component and finally drives the baffle plate 305 to complete the clamping action. This design effectively utilizes the linkage characteristics of the arc groove and the straight groove 202a, realizes efficient conversion from rotating motion to straight line motion, guarantees the stability and reliability of the clamping process, and improves the accuracy and practicality of the device operation.

[0053] Preferably, the opposite surfaces of the two baffle plates 305 are provided with rolling balls 306, part of the rolling balls 306 are rollingly connected in the inner part of the baffle plate 305, and part of the rolling balls 306 are provided outside the baffle plate 305. The rolling balls 306 provide a flexible contact surface for clamping the single crystal furnace, avoid damage to the surface of the single crystal furnace due to excessive friction during clamping, reduce the contact resistance between the baffle plate 305 and the single crystal furnace, and enable the single crystal furnace to maintain smooth movement during rotation without being affected by the clamping force. The rolling design of the rolling balls 306 also ensures the stability of the clamping action, and even under high clamping pressure, the flexibility of the rolling balls 306 can alleviate the concentration of local stress, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the device.

[0054] The clamping function of the embodiment is achieved by gravity driving and mechanical linkage. When the single crystal furnace is placed on the placing disc 202, the placing disc 202 compresses the buffer spring 201c and drives the protective cylinder 203 to move downward due to the gravity, further driving the toggle lever 211 to move vertically downward. The outer end of the toggle lever 211 is slidingly connected in the first arc slot 302a of the sleeve 302, and under the guidance of the arc slot, the downward movement of the toggle lever 211 is converted into the rotation of the sleeve 302. The rotation of the sleeve 302 simultaneously drives the two sector plates 303 to rotate synchronously. The second arc slot 303a in the sector plate 303 guides the slidingly connected transmission rod 304 to move inward, and the top end of the transmission rod 304 is limited by the straight slot 202a, so that the movement trajectory is limited to straight line movement, thereby driving the two baffle plates 305 to move close to each other, completing the clamping and fixing of the single crystal furnace. In addition, the rolling balls 306 arranged inside the baffle plate 305 provide a flexible contact surface during clamping, which not only protects the surface of the single crystal furnace from damage, but also ensures that the single crystal furnace can maintain smooth movement when rotating, finally realizing the safe and reliable limiting and clamping function.
