[0039] In a PECVD reaction device of this embodiment, when installing the reaction tube 4, the reaction tube 4 abuts against the movable block 22, and the end of the reaction tube 4 abuts against the second connection component 3. Then, move the movable block 22 to make the end of the reaction tube 4 correspond to the first sealing member 241 in the axial direction of the reaction tube 4. Finally, adjust the first adjusting member 217 to make the sealing mechanism move towards the reaction tube 4 until the first sealing member 241 abuts against the end of the reaction tube 4, thereby completing the installation of the reaction tube 4. When disassembling the reaction tube 4, detach the sealing mechanism from the fixing plate 21, and the reaction tube 4 can be taken out from the housing 1. Through the setting of the movable block 22, the position of the reaction tube 4 can be adjusted radially, and the matching accuracy between the end of the reaction tube 4 and the first sealing member 241 is higher, thereby making the sealing of the reaction space inside the reaction tube 4 better. Through the setting of the first adjusting member 217 between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism, the position of the sealing mechanism can be adjusted axially, so that the acting force between the first sealing member 241 and the end of the reaction tube 4 is greater, the fitting degree is higher, and the sealing is better. Moreover, through the radial and axial adjustment of the reaction tube 4, the reaction tube 4 does not need to be connected to the first connection component 2 and the second connection component 3, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the quartz tube.

[0040] Refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the housing 1 is integrally circular tubular, and the housing 1 is used to protect the internal structure.

[0041] Refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the reaction tube 4 is circular tubular and is located inside the housing 1, and the inside of the reaction tube 4 is a reaction space.

[0042] Refer to Figures 3 to 6As shown in the figure, the first connection component 2 includes a fixing plate 21, a first adjusting member 217, and a sealing mechanism. The sealing mechanism includes a first mounting ring 23, a second mounting ring 24, and a third mounting ring 25 that are connected in sequence. The first mounting ring 23, the second mounting ring 24, and the third mounting ring 25 are all circular rings with the same diameter. The third mounting ring 25 is located close to the fixing plate 21. The opening formed by the first mounting ring 23, the second mounting ring 24, and the third mounting ring 25 is for the graphite boat to enter or exit the reaction tube 4. The graphite boat is a carrier for placing the plates to be coated.

[0043] The sealing mechanism further includes a first seal 241, a second seal 235, a third seal 242, and a fourth seal 251. The first seal 241, the second seal 235, the third seal 242, and the fourth seal 251 can all be regarded as sealing rings. The second mounting ring 24 is provided with a boss protruding towards the center of the second mounting ring 24. The side of the boss facing the reaction tube 4 is provided with a mounting groove. The first seal 241 is snap-fitted with the mounting groove, so that the end of the reaction tube 4 can abut against the first seal 241, thereby improving the sealing performance of the reaction space. One end of the first mounting ring 23 away from the third mounting ring 25 is snap-fitted with the second seal 235. Specifically, the second seal 235 is located at the edge of the inner circle of the first mounting ring 23. During the operation of the PECVD reaction device, the first mounting ring 23 is connected to the door panel, and the door panel covers the opening position of the first mounting ring 23. The second seal 235 can abut against the door panel, thereby improving the sealing performance of the reaction space. One end of the second mounting ring 24 away from the third mounting ring 25 is snap-fitted with the third seal 242. The third seal 242 abuts against the first mounting ring 23. The third seal 242 can seal between the second mounting ring 24 and the first mounting ring 23. One end of the third mounting ring 25 close to the second mounting ring 24 is snap-fitted with the fourth seal 251, and the fourth seal 251 also abuts against the outer side wall of the reaction tube 4, so that the fourth seal 251 seals between the third mounting ring 25 and the second mounting ring 24, and the fourth seal 251 can also seal between the third mounting ring 25 and the reaction tube 4, thereby improving the overall sealing performance.

[0044] Preferably, the first mounting ring 23, the second mounting ring 24, and the third mounting ring 25 are all provided with cooling channels arranged in a ring along the edge, and two connecting pipes 29 are connected to the side walls of the first mounting ring 23, the second mounting ring 24, and the third mounting ring 25 respectively. The two connecting pipes 29 are respectively used for the entry and output of the cooling medium. The cooling medium can be regarded as coolant or cooling gas. The connecting pipe 29 is connected to an external cooling source. The cooling medium can enter the cooling channel from the connecting pipe 29, thereby cooling the first seal 241, the second seal 235, the third seal 242, and the fourth seal 251, and preventing the seals from being damaged due to high temperature during the operation of the PECVD reaction device.

[0045] The end of the housing 1 is connected to the fixed plate 21. Specifically, a heat insulation sleeve 12 is further provided between the housing 1 and the fixed plate 21. A connecting sleeve 11 is sleeved on the heat insulation sleeve 12. One end of the connecting sleeve 11 is connected to the fixed plate 21, and the other end of the connecting sleeve 11 is connected to the end of the housing 1. The reaction tube 4 passes through the heat insulation sleeve 12, and the heat insulation sleeve 12 has the function of heat preservation.

[0046] A movable block 22 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 21. The movable block 22 is located between the fixed plate 21 and the sealing mechanism. Specifically, the reaction tube 4 passes through the fixed plate 21. A guide block 221 is provided on one side of the fixed plate 21 close to the third mounting ring 25. A chute is provided on the guide block 221, and the chute is arranged along the radial direction of the reaction tube 4. A plurality of guide blocks 221 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the reaction tube 4. In this embodiment, two guide blocks 221 are connected to the fixed plate 21 in total. The two guide blocks 221 are located below the reaction tube 4, and the two guide blocks 221 are axially symmetrically arranged with a vertical symmetry axis along the radial direction of the reaction tube 4. The movable block 22 is slidably connected to the chute, and a second adjusting member is connected to the side of the guide block 221 away from the reaction tube 4. The second adjusting member can be regarded as a bolt. By rotating the bolt, the end of the bolt can abut against the movable block 22. The movable block 22 can move along the radial direction of the reaction tube 4 and abut against the outer side wall of the reaction tube 4. By moving the movable block 22, the radial position of the reaction tube 4 can be adjusted. By making the second adjusting member abut against the movable block 22, the position of the movable block 22 is fixed, and further the position of the reaction tube 4 is fixed.

[0047] The first adjusting member 217 is connected between the sealing mechanism and the fixed plate 21. Specifically, the first adjusting member 217 is connected to the third mounting ring 25, and a plurality of first adjusting members 217 are provided and arranged along the inner circle edge of the third mounting ring 25. The first adjusting member 217 can be regarded as a long bolt and a nut. At least two nuts are threadedly connected to the long bolt. The long bolt sequentially passes through the third mounting ring 25 and the first adjusting member 217. A groove for accommodating the bolt head is provided on the third mounting ring 25. The nuts are all located between the fixed plate 21 and the third mounting ring 25. The two nuts respectively abut against the fixed plate 21 and the third mounting ring 25, so that the position between the sealing mechanism and the fixed plate 21 is fixed. By adjusting the positions of the two nuts, the distance between the sealing mechanism and the fixed plate 21 can be adjusted.

[0048] The fixing plate 21 is also connected with a first connecting member 214. The first connecting member 214 is connected with a sealing plate 211. The sealing plate 211 is sleeved on the sealing mechanism, and the sealing plate 211 covers the gap between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism. Specifically, there are two first connecting members 214 on the fixing plate 21. The two ends of the sealing plate 211 are respectively connected with the two first connecting members 214. The two sealing plates 211 can form a ring, so that the sealing plate 211 can completely cover the gap between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism, improving the sealing performance. The sealing plate 211 is sleeved on the third mounting ring 25, and the width of the sealing plate 211 is greater than the maximum value of the gap between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism. Thus, when the sealing mechanism is in different positions, the sealing plate 211 can completely cover the gap between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism. There are also waist-shaped holes at the connection positions of the sealing plate 211 and the first connecting member 214, so that the position of the sealing plate 211 is adjustable, and the sealing plate 211 can be closely attached to the third mounting ring 25, improving the sealing performance.

[0049] Two positioning columns 215 are also vertically connected to the fixing plate 21. The positioning columns 215 are abutted against the sealing mechanism. The positioning columns 215 are used for positioning and guiding the sealing mechanism to prevent the sealing mechanism from moving or offsetting in position during the installation process with the fixing plate 21.

[0050] The fixing plate 21 is also connected with a fourth connecting member 213. The sealing mechanism also includes a third adjusting member 212. The third adjusting member 212 is fixed to the outside. The third connecting member 262 is connected with a bolt. The bolt is arranged in the horizontal direction, and the end of the bolt abuts against the fourth connecting member 213. By rotating the bolt, the position of the first connection assembly 2 can be adjusted in the horizontal direction. The fixing plate 21 is also connected with a fifth connecting member 216. The sealing mechanism also includes a fourth adjusting member. The fourth adjusting member is connected with a bolt arranged in the vertical direction. The bolt can adjust the position of the first connection assembly 2 in the vertical direction. The adjustment method is the same as that of the third adjusting member 212 and will not be elaborated here.

[0051] Refer to Figures 7 to 10As shown, the PECVD reaction device further includes a support rod 5 for supporting the graphite boat. The support rod 5 is located inside the reaction tube 4, and both ends of the support rod 5 are clamped to the first connection assembly 2 and the second connection assembly 3.

The first support member 26 is provided with an arc-shaped slot, and the end of the support rod 5 is clamped to the slot. The first support member 26 is connected to the second connecting member 261. The second connecting member 261 is arc-shaped and extends along the circumference of the support rod 5 and abuts against the side wall of the support rod 5. Both ends of the second connecting member 261 are connected to the first support member 26. After locking the bolts at the connection position of the second connecting member 261 and the first support member 26, the support rod 5 is clamped between the second connecting member 261 and the first support member 26, so that the support rod 5 is stably fixed.

[0052] The sealing mechanism further includes a third connecting member 262. One end of the third connecting member 262 is connected to the end of the support rod 5, and the other end of the third connecting member 262 is connected to the first support member 26, so that the fixing of the support rod 5 is more stable. The width of the third connecting member 262 gradually decreases in the direction approaching the first support member 26, so as to reduce the volume of the connection position between the third connecting member 262 and the first support member 26 and avoid being unable to connect to the first support member 26 due to the excessive volume of the third connecting member 262.

[0053] The PECVD reaction device further includes a first electrode rod 51 and a second electrode rod 52 located inside the reaction tube 4. There are at least two support rods 5. A plurality of insulating sleeves 53 are sleeved on the support rods 5. The four corner positions of the graphite boat abut against the insulating sleeves 53. The sealing mechanism further includes two first connectors 28. The first connectors 28 penetrate through the first mounting ring 23. The first connectors 28 are used to connect to the controller. The first electrode rod 51 and the second electrode rod 52 are respectively connected to the two first connectors 28. The first electrode rod 51 and the second electrode rod 52 respectively abut against the insulating sleeves 53 on the two support rods 5, and the length of the second electrode rod 52 is greater than the length of the first electrode rod 51. Specifically, a conductive ring 54 is sleeved on the insulating sleeve 53. The conductive ring 54 can slide relative to the insulating sleeve 53. The first electrode rod 51 and the second electrode rod 52 are respectively connected to the two conductive rings 54. After the graphite boat abuts against the two conductive rings 54, the graphite boat can be electrified. The setting of the conductive ring 54 enables the electrode rods to still stably electrify the graphite boat after the positions of the support rods 5 and the electrode rods move. The setting of the first electrode rod 51 and the second electrode rod 52 enables the electrode rods to be arranged along the support rods 5 and does not block the path for the graphite boat to enter or exit the reaction tube 4.

[0054] The PECVD reaction device further includes a temperature sensor 7. The temperature sensor 7 is connected between the first connection component 2 and the second connection component 3. The temperature sensor 7 is connected to the controller and is located inside the reaction tube 4. The temperature sensor 7 is used to detect the temperature inside the reaction tube 4. The temperature sensor 7 is connected to the first mounting ring 23 through the mounting seat 234.

[0055] The PECVD reaction device further includes a heating rod 6. The heating rod 6 is used to heat the inside of the reaction tube 4. The heating rod 6 is located between the first connection component 2 and the second connection component 3 and is located inside the reaction tube 4. The sealing mechanism further includes a mounting plate 233. The mounting plate 233 is connected to the inner ring of the first mounting ring 23 and extends towards the center of the first mounting ring 23.

[0056] The inner ring of the first mounting ring 23 is further connected with an air inlet member 231 that extends into the reaction tube. The air inlet member 231 is provided with a plurality of air inlet holes. The outer side wall of the first mounting ring 23 is connected with an air inlet valve 232.

Embodiment Two

[0062] The present invention also provides an adjustment method for a PECVD reaction device. The PECVD reaction device in Embodiment 1 is used for adjustment, including the following steps: S1: Place the reaction tube 4 in the housing 1 so that the reaction tube 4 abuts against the movable block 22, and the end of the reaction tube 4 abuts against the second connection assembly 3; S2: Move the movable block 22, so that the reaction tube 4 moves radially, and the end of the reaction tube 4 and the sealing position of the sealing mechanism are axially aligned in the reaction tube 4. That is, after moving the movable block 22, the end of the reaction tube 4 and the first seal 241 are axially aligned in the reaction tube 4; S3: Adjust the first adjusting member 217 so that the sealing mechanism moves towards the reaction tube 4, that is, the sealing mechanism approaches the reaction tube 4 axially until the sealing mechanism seals the end of the reaction tube 4. That is, after adjusting the first adjusting member 217, the first seal 241 abuts against the end of the reaction tube 4.

[0063] For a PECVD reaction device and an adjustment method thereof according to the present invention, through the arrangement of the movable block 22, the position of the reaction tube 4 can be adjusted radially, and the matching accuracy between the end of the reaction tube 4 and the first seal 241 is higher, so that the sealing performance of the reaction space in the reaction tube 4 is better. Through the arrangement of the first adjusting member 217 between the fixing plate 21 and the sealing mechanism, the sealing mechanism can be adjusted axially, so that the acting force between the first seal 241 and the end of the reaction tube 4 is greater, the fitting degree is higher, and the sealing performance is better. Moreover, through the radial and axial adjustment of the reaction tube 4, the reaction tube 4 does not need to be connected to the first connection assembly 2 and the second connection assembly 3, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the quartz tube.

[0064] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and are not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or variations derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
