[0002] Diamond is a mineral composed of carbon elements, which is an allotrope of graphite. Diamond is the hardest substance naturally occurring in nature. Synthetic diamond can be prepared from graphite under high temperature and high pressure environments. Diamond is widely used in various fields. A single-crystal growth device is required in the process of preparing diamond from graphite.

[0003] In the prior art, when a diamond single-crystal growth device is in use, generally, graphite is directly fixed and placed inside the device box body, and graphite grows into diamond under the high temperature and high pressure environment generated inside the device box body. After the single-crystal growth is completed, it is taken out after cooling and new graphite is placed.

[0004] However, in the whole process of the above-mentioned graphite single-crystal growth, when the device box body is opened, it is easy to cause a large amount of heat loss inside the device box body, which is not conducive to the continuous operation of the device box body. At the same time, after the single-crystal growth is completed, it needs to be cooled before it can be taken out and new graphite can be placed, thereby reducing the working efficiency of single-crystal growth.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. In the present invention, when the linkage shaft on the frontmost graphite placement mechanism enters the second notch and squeezes the upper and lower semicircular sealing parts, the upper and lower first elastic members are compressed until the linkage shaft on the frontmost graphite placement mechanism completely separates from the semicircular sealing part. At this time, the upper and lower semicircular sealing parts are tightly attached together again with the help of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member, and the linkage shaft on the next graphite placement mechanism enters the first notch and squeezes the upper and lower semicircular sealing parts, so that the upper and lower first elastic members are compressed until the linkage shaft on the next graphite placement mechanism just enters between the two semicircular sealing parts. The upper and lower semicircular sealing parts are tightly attached together again with the help of the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member. At this time, a circular sealing plate is formed by the upper and lower semicircular sealing parts to achieve complete sealing of the air inlet at the end of the heat dissipation flow tube, thereby effectively reducing internal temperature loss while ensuring continuous operation, thereby improving the working efficiency of single crystal growth.

[0017] 2. After the graphite placement mechanism has completed heating and growth and is moved to the inside of the arc-shaped guide frame, the present invention utilizes the graphite placement mechanism's own gravity to make it move downward along the arc-shaped guide frame. In this process, the traveling gear continues to travel along the surface of the arc-shaped outer tooth seat. During the travel of the traveling gear, the heat dissipation impeller is driven to rotate continuously. The airflow generated by the rotation of the heat dissipation impeller continuously enters the graphite placement box and is then discharged from the air outlet mesh. The continuous rotation of the heat dissipation impeller can accelerate the air flow inside the graphite placement box, thereby greatly improving the cooling effect of the graphite after single crystal growth.

[0018] 3. When the present invention pushes the next graphite placement mechanism to the position of the heating growth box, the horizontal push part is between the force-bearing toggle part on the frontmost graphite placement mechanism and the force-bearing toggle part on the next graphite placement mechanism. At this time, the electromagnet on the control magnetic plate is energized to generate a magnetic repulsion force on the meshing part, and the moving meshing part drives the lifting control gear to rotate. The second elastic member is compressed by force, and the lifting control screw that rotates synchronously with the lifting control gear drives the horizontal push part to move upward until it is in contact with the bottom of the horizontal conveying platform. Then, the forward movement of the telescopic cylinder pushes the graphite placement mechanism after the heating growth is pushed into the arc guide frame. Then, the electromagnet on the magnetic plate is controlled to be powered off and demagnetized, and the meshing part is moved in the opposite direction and reset with the help of the elastic restoring force of the second elastic member. In this process, the lifting control gear is driven to rotate in the opposite direction by the meshing part, and the horizontal push part is driven to move downward and reset under the action of the lifting control screw. Finally, the moving seat can be driven to move in the opposite direction and reset by the retraction movement of the telescopic cylinder.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] For specific embodiment 1, please refer to Figure 1-14, the present invention is a large-size single crystal diamond growth device, including a carrying and conveying mechanism 1, a graphite placing mechanism 2, and a heating and growing mechanism 3; the carrying and conveying mechanism 1 includes a horizontal conveying platform 101, and an arc-shaped guiding frame 102 is fixedly arranged at one end of the horizontal conveying platform 101. The arc-shaped guiding frame 102 is arranged tangentially to the horizontal conveying platform 101. An arc-shaped external tooth seat 103 coaxial with the arc-shaped guiding frame 102 is installed on one side of the arc-shaped guiding frame 102. A discharge port 104 communicating with its inner cavity is opened at the bottom of the arc-shaped guiding frame 102; the graphite placing mechanism 2 is linearly and arrayedly arranged on the horizontal conveying platform 101, and the graphite placing mechanism 2 is slidably matched with the horizontal conveying platform 101. The graphite placing mechanism 2 includes a heat dissipation impeller 201 and a traveling gear 202 that rotate synchronously. After the graphite placing mechanism 2 after heating and growing moves into the arc-shaped guiding frame 102, the graphite placing mechanism 2 moves downward along the arc-shaped guiding frame 102, so that the traveling gear 202 rotates along the arc-shaped external tooth seat 103, and the heat dissipation impeller 201 rotating synchronously with the traveling gear 202 realizes the cooling of the graphite; the heating and growing mechanism 3 is fixedly installed above the horizontal conveying platform 101. The heating and growing mechanism 3 includes a heating and growing box 301 that fits with the corresponding graphite placing mechanism 2 (a pressurizing pipe and a pressure relief pipe are installed thereon, and a control valve is installed on the pressure relief pipe). A rectangular through port 302 for communicating with the corresponding graphite placing mechanism 2 is opened at the center position on one side of the heating and growing box 301.

[0039] In this embodiment of the present invention, the arc-shaped external tooth seat 103 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped guiding frame 102 through an axial rod. An arc-shaped guiding plate 105 coaxial with the arc-shaped guiding frame 102 is arranged on one side of the arc-shaped guiding frame 102 close to the arc-shaped external tooth seat 103. The arc-shaped guiding plate 105 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped guiding frame 102 through an axial rod. A horizontal guiding plate 106 fixedly connected to the arc-shaped guiding plate 105 is arranged above the horizontal conveying platform 101. A first arc-shaped channel 107 is opened on the surface of the arc-shaped guiding plate 105, and a horizontal channel 108 communicating with the first arc-shaped channel 107 is opened on the surface of the horizontal guiding plate 106;

[0040] A horizontal guide groove 109 is provided on the top of the horizontal conveying platform 101, a horizontal limit channel 110 connected to the horizontal guide groove 109 is provided at the bottom of the horizontal conveying platform 101, a first arc guide groove 111 and a second arc guide groove 112 are provided in the inner cavity of the arc guide frame 102, the first arc guide groove 111 is connected to the horizontal guide groove 109, and the second arc guide groove 112 is connected to the discharge port 104; an arc guide groove 111 connected to the first arc guide groove 111 is provided on the inner wall of the arc guide frame 102 shaped limiting channel 113, a second arc channel 114 connected to the inner cavity of the arc guide frame 102 is opened on one side close to the arc external tooth seat 103, and the first arc channel 107 is connected to the discharge port 104 through the shaft opening 115. When the graphite placement mechanism 2 after completing the heating and growth moves to the inside of the arc guide frame 102 and slides downward to the position of the discharge port 104, the graphite placement mechanism 2 after completing the heating and growth can fall from the discharge port 104 to the outside of the arc guide frame 102 to complete the collection.

[0041] In this embodiment of the present invention, a horizontal conveying portion 116 is slidably arranged inside the horizontal limit channel 110, and the horizontal conveying portion 116 is slidably mounted on the horizontal guide plate 106. A conveying control motor 117 is fixedly installed on the side of the horizontal conveying platform 101 away from the arc-shaped guide frame 102, and the output end of the conveying control motor 117 is connected to a conveying control shaft 118 threadedly matched with the horizontal conveying portion 116; after starting the conveying control motor 117, the rotation of the conveying control shaft 118 is used to drive the horizontal conveying portion 116 to slide forward along the horizontal limit channel 110, and then the horizontal conveying portion 116 is used to push several graphite placement mechanisms 2 on the horizontal conveying platform 101 to move synchronously. It should be noted that each time the conveying control motor 117 operates, the frontmost graphite placement mechanism 2 can be pushed to the position of the heating growth box 301 through the horizontal conveying portion 116.

[0042] In this embodiment of the present invention, the graphite placement mechanism 2 also includes a graphite placement box 203, a graphite fixing portion 204 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the graphite placement box 203 (graphite is confined in the graphite fixing portion 204 under high temperature and high pressure environment), a first guide ball 205 is fixedly provided at the top of the graphite placement box 203, a second guide ball 206 that is slidably fitted in the horizontal guide groove 109 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the graphite placement box 203, and a force-bearing toggle portion 207 that is slidably fitted in the horizontal limit channel 110 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the second guide ball 206;

[0043] A heat dissipation flow tube 208 connected to the inside of the graphite placement box 203 is fixedly provided. The heat dissipation flow tube 208 is slidably fitted in the horizontal channel 108. Since the force-bearing toggle portion 207 is slidably fitted in the horizontal limit channel 110, and the heat dissipation flow tube 208 is slidably fitted in the horizontal channel 108, in the process of pushing the graphite placement mechanism 2 through the horizontal conveying portion 116, the self-rotation of the graphite placement mechanism 2 during the horizontal sliding process can be effectively avoided. A linkage shaft 209 is rotatably provided inside the heat dissipation flow tube 208 (in the process of the graphite placement mechanism 2 falling from the discharge port 104 after completing the heating and growth, the linkage shaft 209 on the graphite placement mechanism 2 falls along the shaft body opening 115). One end of the linkage shaft 209 extending to the outside of the heat dissipation flow tube 208 is fixed on the running gear 202. The heat dissipation impeller 201 is located on the inner side of the heat dissipation flow tube 208 and is fixedly connected to the linkage shaft 209. 08 A plurality of air inlets 210 are provided near the end of the traveling gear 202, and an air outlet mesh 211 is provided on one side of the graphite placement box 203; when the graphite placement mechanism 2 moves to the inside of the arc-shaped guide frame 102 after completing the heating and growth, the graphite placement mechanism 2 uses its own gravity to make it move downward along the arc-shaped guide frame 102 (circular motion from top to bottom), and in this process, the traveling gear 202 continues to travel along the surface of the arc-shaped outer tooth seat 103 (that is, the traveling gear 202 rotates while moving along the surface of the arc-shaped outer tooth seat 103), and the heat dissipation impeller 201 is driven to rotate continuously during the movement of the traveling gear 202, and the airflow generated by the rotation of the heat dissipation impeller 201 continuously enters the inside of the graphite placement box 203 and is then discharged from the air outlet mesh 211, and the continuous rotation of the heat dissipation impeller 201 can accelerate the air flow inside the graphite placement box 203, thereby greatly improving the cooling effect of the graphite after single crystal growth.

[0044] In this embodiment of the present invention, a first mounting frame 303 is fixedly provided on one side of the heating growth box 301 away from the rectangular opening 302, a first limiting frame 304 is fixedly provided on one side of the heating growth box 301 close to the rectangular opening 302, a second mounting frame 305 is fixedly provided on the top of the first limiting frame 304, and a second limiting frame 306 is fixedly provided inside the second mounting frame 305; two lifting parts 307 are symmetrically provided on the inner side of the second mounting frame 305, and the first limiting frame 304 and the second limiting frame 306 are both fixedly provided with the first limiting frame 304 and the second limiting frame 306. The corresponding lifting part 307 is slidably matched, and a semicircular sealing part 308 is fixedly arranged on the end of the lifting part 307. The support plate 309 fixedly arranged on the surface of the lifting part 307 is connected to the second mounting frame 305 through the first elastic member 310. Under the strong elastic force of the upper and lower first elastic members 310, the two semicircular sealing parts 308 are tightly pressed together. At this time, the upper and lower semicircular sealing parts 308 form a circular sealing plate to achieve complete sealing of the air inlet 210 at the end of the heat dissipation flow tube 208.

[0045] After the heating and growth of the graphite inside the foremost graphite placement mechanism 2 is completed, the conveying control motor 117 is controlled to operate once, and the next graphite placement mechanism 2 is pushed to the position of the heating growth chamber 301 through the horizontal conveying portion 116. During this process, the linkage shaft 209 on the foremost graphite placement mechanism 2 enters the second notch 312 and presses the upper and lower semi-circular sealing portions 308, causing the upper and lower first elastic members 310 to be compressed. Until the linkage shaft 209 on the foremost graphite placement mechanism 2 completely disengages from the semi-circular sealing portion 308, at this time, with the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 310, the upper and lower semi-circular sealing portions 308 are pressed together again. The linkage shaft 209 on the next graphite placement mechanism 2 enters the first notch 311 and presses the upper and lower semi-circular sealing portions 308, causing the upper and lower first elastic members 310 to be compressed. Until the linkage shaft 209 on the next graphite placement mechanism 2 just enters between the two semi-circular sealing portions 308, with the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 310, the upper and lower semi-circular sealing portions 308 are pressed together again. At this time, a circular sealing plate is formed by the upper and lower semi-circular sealing portions 308 to completely seal the air inlet 210 at the end of the heat dissipation flow pipe 208;

[0046] Then, the graphite placement mechanism 2 after the heating and growth is pushed into the arc-shaped guide frame 102. At this time, the first guide ball 205 just fits into the second arc-shaped guide groove 112, the second guide ball 206 just fits into the first arc-shaped guide groove 111, and the force-applying portion 207 just fits into the arc-shaped limiting channel 113. Then, using the self-weight of the graphite placement mechanism 2, it moves downward along the arc-shaped guide frame 102. During this process, the traveling gear 202 continuously travels along the surface of the arc-shaped external tooth seat 103. During the traveling of the traveling gear 202, the heat dissipation impeller 201 rotates continuously. The air flow generated by the rotation of the heat dissipation impeller 201 continuously enters the graphite placement box 203 and is discharged from the air outlet mesh holes 211. The continuous rotation of the heat dissipation impeller 201 can accelerate the air flow inside the graphite placement box 203, thereby greatly improving the cooling effect on the graphite after single crystal growth.

[0047] Specific Embodiment 2, on the basis of Specific Embodiment 1, the present invention further includes a pushing control mechanism 4 and a bearing frame 5. The first mounting frame 303 is installed on the bearing frame 5 through fasteners. A horizontal support frame 6 is fixedly arranged on the bearing frame 5, and the horizontal conveying table 101 is fixedly installed on the top of the horizontal support frame 6;

[0048] The push control mechanism 4 includes a mounting seat 401 fixedly arranged on the top of the horizontal support frame 6, and the output end of the telescopic cylinder 402 installed on the mounting seat 401 is connected to a moving seat 403 slidably arranged on the top of the horizontal support frame 6. A lifting control screw 404 is rotatably arranged on the top of the moving seat 403, and a lifting control gear 405 is fixedly arranged on the side surface of the lifting control screw 404. A horizontal push part 406 slidably sleeved on the conveying control shaft 118 is threadedly matched with the lifting control screw 404; in the initial state, the horizontal push part 406 is in a low position and is below the force-bearing toggle part 207.
