Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Example 1
[0031] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the embodiment of the present invention, a continuous feeding zone melting furnace includes a crystal growth chamber 1. A silicon tube 16 is provided at the upper end of the crystal growth chamber 1. A bottom quartz support 12 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the silicon tube 16. A heating device is provided on the outside of the silicon tube 16. The heating device includes a first cylinder 11 fixedly connected inside the crystal growth chamber 1. An induction coil 14 is fixedly connected to the middle of the first cylinder 11. The induction coil 14 is located outside the silicon tube 16. A graphite preheating ring 15 is provided at the middle of the upper end of the silicon tube 16. A plurality of water-cooled quartz tubes 13 are provided around the outside of the silicon tube 16. A seed crystal 18 is slidably arranged at the lower end of the crystal growth chamber 1. A feeding assembly is provided at the upper end of the crystal growth chamber 1. The feeding assembly includes a feeding bin 2 provided at the upper end of the crystal growth chamber 1. A conveying assembly is fixedly connected to the lower end of the feeding bin 2. The conveying assembly includes a feeding pipe 21 installed at the lower end of the feeding bin 2. The feeding pipe 21 is located at the upper end of the silicon tube 16.
[0032] Specifically, when processing a large-size silicon crystal rod, a crucible is needed, but the presence of the granular silicon will affect the thermal stability and mechanical strength of the quartz crucible, and the chemical reaction between the granular silicon and the quartz crucible will make the quartz crucible gradually brittle and the thermal stability will decrease, and the friction of the granular silicon inside the quartz crucible may produce impurities, so when using the quartz crucible, attention should be paid to its contact with the granular silicon to prevent contamination of the granular silicon. When using the zone melting furnace, the granular silicon is placed in the silicon tube 16 and the bottom quartz holder 12, and then the power is turned on to increase the temperature of the graphite preheating ring 15. The graphite preheating ring 15 can start melting the granular silicon in the middle of the silicon tube 16 from the inside out and from top to bottom. Then, the water-cooled quartz tube 13 is kept in a cooling state by circulating external water, and the water-cooled quartz tube 13 cools the outer side of the silicon tube 16. The granular silicon near the silicon tube 16 cooled by the water-cooled quartz tube 13 cannot be melted, and a layer of self-compatible silicon crucible is formed between the melted granular silicon and the unmelted granular silicon, which stabilizes the flow of the melt and avoids contamination caused by the contact between the granular silicon and the bottom quartz holder 12. Then, the seed crystal 18 is driven to move to the lower end of the melted granular silicon to perform crystal pulling and shoulder forming operations to form a silicon crystal rod. During the processing, granular silicon is added to the feeding bin 2 and then enters the silicon tube 16 through the feeding tube 21, so that continuous feeding and melting can be performed to process a large-size silicon crystal rod. The water-cooled quartz tube 13 cools the outer side of the silicon tube 16, and a layer of self-compatible silicon crucible is formed between the melted granular silicon and the unmelted granular silicon, solving the problem of possible contamination caused by the contact between the granular silicon and the bottom quartz holder 12.
[0033] As shown in Figures 2-3 , a small hole is formed in the lower end of the bottom quartz holder 12, and a high-frequency induction coil 17 is arranged at the lower end of the bottom quartz holder 12, and the high-frequency induction coil 17 is fixedly connected to the inside of the crystal growth furnace chamber 1.
[0034] Specifically, the small hole at the lower end of the bottom quartz holder 12 is smaller than the diameter of the granular silicon particles, preventing the granular silicon from falling out when it is poured into the bottom quartz holder 12. When the granular silicon at the bottom of the bottom quartz holder 12 starts to melt, the high-frequency induction coil 17 is turned on to control the silicon melt from falling freely, and the subsequent fusion, crystal pulling and shoulder forming operations are the same as those of the conventional zone melting silicon crystal growth.
[0035] As shown in Figure 2 , a first cylindrical block 181 is slidably arranged at the lower end of the inside of the crystal growth furnace chamber 1, and the first cylindrical block 181 is used to install the seed crystal 18. A first circular plate 19 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the crystal growth furnace chamber 1, and a sealing door 191 is rotatably arranged at one side of the lower end of the crystal growth furnace chamber 1.
[0036] Specifically, in the crystal growth stage, the seed crystal 18 is first installed on the upper end of the first cylindrical block 181, then the first cylindrical block 181 is driven to slide downward to drive the seed crystal 18 to guide the melt out, then the crystal growth is continuously driven by the downward movement of the seed crystal 18, so that the crystal rod is located at the lower end inside the crystal growth furnace chamber 1, then the sealing door 191 is driven to rotate, so that the crystal rod is exposed outside, and the crystal rod can be taken out.
[0037] As shown in Figures 4-5 , the lower end inside the feeding bin 2 is fixedly connected with a vortex plate 25, the inside of the vortex plate 25 is a hollow structure, and a plurality of rectangular holes 252 are formed in the side walls.
[0038] Specifically, during feeding, it is necessary to ensure that the granular silicon remains dry to prevent the risk of reaction and explosion caused by moisture or other impurities. The granular silicon is placed in the feeding bin 2, then the granular silicon falls into the gap of the vortex plate 25, then the air pump is connected with the vortex plate 25, and the negative pressure is generated in the vortex plate 25 by starting the air pump. When the surface of the granular silicon has moisture, the moisture on the surface of the granular silicon can enter the inside of the vortex plate 25 through the rectangular holes 252, so that the granular silicon can be uniformly distributed in the gap of the vortex plate 25, and the drying speed is increased.
[0039] As shown in Figure 5 , the inside of the vortex plate 25 is provided with a sponge sheet 251.
[0040] Specifically, when the moisture on the surface of the granular silicon is sucked into the inside of the vortex plate 25, the moisture is absorbed by the sponge sheet 251, and at the same time, the granular silicon or impurities can be prevented from entering the inside of the vortex plate 25.
[0041] As shown in Figure 6 , the upper end of the feeding bin 2 is fixedly connected with a second circular plate 26, the lower end of the second circular plate 26 is provided with a material stirring assembly, the material stirring assembly comprises a second cylindrical block 261 rotatably connected to the lower end of the second circular plate 26, a rectangular cylinder 264 slidably penetrating through the middle of the second cylindrical block 261, a second rectangular strip 27 provided on one side of the lower end of the rectangular cylinder 264, the second rectangular strip 27 being located in the gap of the vortex plate 25, a third cylinder 262 fixedly connected to the lower end of the second cylindrical block 261, and a second cylindrical rod 263 slidably arranged in the inside of the lower end of the third cylinder 262.
[0042] Specifically, by driving the second cylindrical block 261 to rotate, the rectangular cylinder 264 is driven to rotate, the rectangular cylinder 264 drives the second rectangular strip 27 to slide along the gap of the vortex plate 25, and the second rectangular strip 27 slides while driving the rectangular cylinder 264 to slide in the middle of the second cylindrical block 261, so as to stir the granular silicon in the gap of the vortex plate 25, and the effect of absorbing the moisture on the surface of the granular silicon is better.
[0043] As shown in Figure 7As shown, the second rectangular bar 27 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the rectangular cylinder 264, the second rectangular bar 27 is rotatably connected with the gear 272, the rectangular cylinder 264 is internally provided with a rack 273, the rack 273 is fixedly connected with the second circular plate 26 through the second rectangular block 274, the gear 272 is engaged with the rack 273, and the rectangular cylinder 264 can slide outside the rack 273.
[0044] Specifically, when the second cylindrical block 261 is driven to rotate, the second rectangular bar 27 slides along the gap of the vortex plate 25, drives the rectangular cylinder 264 to slide in the middle of the second cylindrical block 261, and drives the gear 272 to slide on one side of the rack 273 while the rectangular cylinder 264 slides in the middle of the second cylindrical block 261, so that the gear 272 drives the second rectangular bar 27 to rotate. When the second rectangular bar 27 slides in the gap of the vortex plate 25, the second rectangular bar 27 can rotate, and the particles in the gap of the vortex plate 25 are fully stirred.
[0045] As shown in the drawings, Figure 8 The first rectangular block 213 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer side of the feeding pipe 21, the first cylindrical rod 214 is fixedly connected to both ends of the first rectangular block 213, the first rectangular bar 215 is rotatably connected to the opposite ends of the two first cylindrical rods 214, and the first rectangular bar 215 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the crystal growing furnace chamber 1.
[0046] Specifically, the feeding speed of the silicon single crystal growing process needs to be controlled to be the same as the speed of the particles of the granular silicon entering the bottom quartz holder 12, and the speed of the granular silicon entering the bottom quartz holder 12 needs to be adjusted when processing crystal rods of different sizes. The first cylindrical rod 214 drives the first rectangular block 213 to rotate, the first rectangular block 213 drives the feeding pipe 21 to rotate, and the angle of the feeding pipe 21 is closer to the vertical state, and the feeding speed is faster.
[0047] As shown in the drawings, Figure 4 , Figure 8 The vibration feeder 24 is installed at the lower end of the feeding bin 2, the telescopic pipes 211 are fixedly connected to both ends of the feeding pipe 21, the telescopic pipe 211 at the upper end is fixedly connected with the vibration feeder 24 through the conical cylinder 212, and the telescopic pipe 211 at the lower end is fixedly connected with the first circular plate 19 through the conical cylinder 212.
[0048] Specifically, when the feeding pipe 21 is driven to rotate, the telescopic pipes 211 at both ends are extended and retracted, and the conical cylinder 212 is made of rubber material and has a certain elasticity, which prevents excessive pulling during rotation of the feeding pipe 21, causing the telescopic pipe 211 to fall off. The angle of the feeding pipe 21 is adjusted by driving the feeding pipe 21 to rotate, the speed of the granular silicon entering the silicon pipe 16 is adjusted, the vibration feeder 24 is driven by the motor, the feeding pipe 21 is vibrated by driving the vibration feeder 24, the vibration frequency of the vibration feeder 24 is higher when fast feeding is required, and the vibration frequency of the vibration feeder 24 is lower when slow feeding is required. Example 2
[0049] As shown in Figure 4 , Figure 8 , another embodiment of the present application is that the feeding pipe 22 is fixed on one side of the feeding bin 2, and the feeding bin 2 is fixed with the crystal growing furnace chamber 1 through the L-shaped strip 23, and the third circular plate 265 is fixed at the lower end of the third cylinder 262, and the third circular plate 265 is located at the middle of the upper end of the vortex plate 25.
[0050] Specifically, the granular silicon is added into the feeding bin 2 through the feeding pipe 22, so that the granular silicon is located at one side of the vortex plate 25 when entering the feeding bin 2, and the third circular plate 265 is located at the middle of the upper end of the vortex plate 25, thereby preventing the granular silicon from directly entering the silicon pipe 16 from the vortex plate 25 without being absorbed by water.
[0051] The working principle is that the granular silicon is added into the feeding bin 2 through the feeding pipe 22, so that the granular silicon is located at one side of the vortex plate 25 when entering the feeding bin 2, and the third circular plate 265 is located at the middle of the upper end of the vortex plate 25, thereby preventing the granular silicon from directly entering the silicon pipe 16 from the vortex plate 25 without being absorbed by water; the granular silicon falls into the gap of the vortex plate 25, then the air pump is connected with the vortex plate 25, and negative pressure is generated in the vortex plate 25 by starting the air pump, when the granular silicon surface has moisture, the moisture on the surface of the granular silicon can enter the inside of the vortex plate 25 from the rectangular hole 252, so that the granular silicon can be uniformly distributed in the gap of the vortex plate 25, and the moisture is absorbed by the sponge sheet 251; by driving the second cylinder block 261 to rotate, the second rectangular strip 27 slides along the gap of the vortex plate 25, and the rectangular cylinder 264 slides in the middle of the second cylinder block 261, and the rectangular cylinder 264 slides in the middle of the second cylinder block 261 at the same time, and the gear 272 slides at one side of the rack 273, so that the gear 272 drives the second rectangular strip 27 to rotate, and the second rectangular strip 27 rotates while sliding in the gap of the vortex plate 25, so as to fully stir the granular silicon in the gap of the vortex plate 25;
[0052] Then the granular silicon enters the silicon pipe 16 and the bottom quartz support 12, then the power is turned on, so that the temperature of the graphite preheating ring 15 rises, and the graphite preheating ring 15 can start to melt the granular silicon in the middle of the silicon pipe 16 from inside to outside and from top to bottom, then the water cooling quartz tube 13 is kept in a cooling state by circulating external water, and the water cooling quartz tube 13 cools the outer side of the silicon pipe 16, so that the granular silicon near the silicon pipe 16 cooled by the water cooling quartz tube 13 cannot be melted, and a layer of self-forming silicon crucible is formed between the melted granular silicon and the un-melted granular silicon, so as to stabilize the flow of the melt, and avoid the granular silicon from contacting the bottom quartz support 12 to cause pollution, then the seed crystal 18 is driven to move to the lower end of the melted granular silicon, and the operations such as crystal pulling and shoulder forming are performed to form a silicon rod.
