[0046] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0047] See also Figures 1 to 3 , is a polysilicon crushing equipment provided by an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the feeding device 100 is used to continuously supply silicon pillars 10; the heating device 200 includes a machine 210, a conveying mechanism 220, a cooling device 400 and a heating mechanism 230, wherein the conveying mechanism 220 is arranged on the machine 210, and is used to receive the silicon pillars 10 supplied by the feeding device 100, the conveying mechanism 220 is used to convey the silicon pillars 10 and rotate the silicon pillars 10, the heating mechanism 230 is arranged on the machine 210, and is used to heat the silicon pillars 10 conveyed by the conveying mechanism 220 at high temperature; the cooling device 400 is used to cool the heated silicon pillars 10; the crushing device 300 is used to receive the silicon pillars 10 transmitted by the cooling device 400 and crush the silicon pillars 10.

[0048] In specific applications, the loading device 100 continuously transfers the silicon column 10 to be heated into the conveying mechanism 220 of the heating device 200. The conveying mechanism 220 conveys the silicon column 10 from left to right. Under the conveyance of the conveying mechanism 220, the silicon column 10 rotates and rolls by itself, so that the downward circumferential area of the silicon column 10 rotates to an upward state. Thus, the heating device 200 located above the silicon column 10 can evenly heat the four sides of the silicon column 10. The heated silicon column 10 is transferred to the cooling device 400, which cools the silicon column 10. The cooled silicon column 10 is transferred to the crushing device 300, which fully crushes the silicon column 10.

[0049] It can be understood that when the conveying mechanism 220 conveys the silicon column 10, the silicon column 10 rotates itself, and the heating mechanism 230 can evenly heat the four sides of the silicon column 10 at high temperature. In this way, after the silicon column 10 passes through the cooling device 400, the crushing device 300 can fully crush the silicon column 10.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figures 2 to 3 The conveying mechanism 220 includes a first carrier 221, a second carrier 222, and a first drive module 223. The first carrier 221 is disposed on the platform 210 along its length, i.e., extending in the left-right direction. The first carrier 221 is sequentially provided with a plurality of first placement slots 2211 along its length. The second carrier 222 is slidably disposed on the platform 210 along its length, i.e., slidably disposed in the left-right direction. The first carrier 221 and the second carrier 222 are disposed side by side, and the second carrier 222 is sequentially provided with a plurality of second placement slots 2221 along its length. The first drive module 223 is disposed on the platform 210 and is used to drive the second carrier 222 to move along its length and in the vertical direction, so that the silicon pillars 10 can be switched between the first carrier 221 and the second carrier 222 to achieve conveyance.

[0051] In practical applications, the second carrier 222 operates in four main phases. In the first phase, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 upward, lifting the silicon pillar 10 upward through the second placement groove 2221, separating the silicon pillar 10 from the first placement groove 2211. In the second phase, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 rightward by a distance X, thereby moving the lifted silicon pillar 10 rightward by a distance X. In the third phase, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 downward, placing the lifted silicon pillar 10 downward into the first placement groove 2211 until the second placement groove 2221 separates from the silicon pillar 10. In the fourth working phase, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to move to the left by a distance X, returning to the position in the first phase, and repeating the steps from the first working phase to the fourth working phase. Thus, the second carrier 222 sequentially transports the silicon pillars 10 from left to right. This configuration allows the second carrier 222 to reciprocate left and right, as well as up and down, to optimally transport the silicon pillars 10, thereby ensuring that the heating device 200 can optimally heat the silicon pillars 10, facilitating subsequent crushing of the silicon pillars 10.

[0052] Furthermore, relatively expanded first guide slopes 2212 are provided on both sides of the first placement groove 2211, or in other words, the first placement groove 2211 is roughly V-shaped; similarly, relatively expanded first guide slopes 2212 are provided on both sides of the second placement groove 2221, or in other words, the first placement groove 2211 is roughly V-shaped.

[0053] It can be understood that the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221 adopt the above-mentioned structural form. The first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221 can be flexibly used to place silicon pillars 10 of various diameters. Therefore, the heating device 200 can more conveniently heat silicon pillars 10 of various diameters; moreover, the placement openings of the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221 are set larger, so that the silicon pillar 10 can be more conveniently placed in the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221, or the silicon pillar 10 can be more conveniently taken out from the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221.

[0054] In order to achieve the rolling of the silicon pillar 10, in one possible embodiment, when the second carrier 222 places the silicon pillar 10 on the first carrier 221, the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221 are partially staggered. Specifically, the bottom of the second placement groove 2221 is located directly above the first guide slope 2212. The second placement groove 2221 places the silicon pillar 10 on the first guide slope 2212, and the silicon pillar 10 rolls downward along the first guide slope 2212, thereby causing the silicon pillar 10 to rotate itself. As a result, the heating device 200 located above the silicon pillar 10 can fully and evenly heat the four sides of the silicon pillar 10, thereby heating the four sides of the silicon pillar 10 at high temperature, and then the silicon pillar 10 can be easily and fully crushed.

[0055] Furthermore, the sidewall of the first guide bevel 2212 is provided with a first support pad 2213 for guiding the silicon pillar 10 to roll along the sidewall of the first support pad 2213, wherein the first support pad 2213 can be made of a high-temperature resistant material such as silicon oxide or silicon carbide, and the surface of the first support pad 2213 can be provided with anti-slip grooves to increase friction. Specifically, through the provision of the first support pad 2213, when the silicon pillar 10 is placed on the first support pad 2213, there is a sufficiently large friction between the silicon pillar 10 and the first support pad 2213, so that the silicon pillar 10 rotates itself during the sliding process along the first guide bevel 2212, thereby the heating device 200 located above the silicon pillar 10 can fully and evenly heat the four sides of the silicon pillar 10, thereby sufficiently heating the four sides of the silicon pillar 10 at a high temperature, and then the silicon pillar 10 can be fully crushed.

[0056] In addition, by disposing the first support pad 2213 , the first support pad 2213 can effectively prevent the first carrier 221 from contaminating the silicon column 10 , thereby ensuring the subsequent use of the silicon column 10 .

[0057] In order to achieve the rolling of the silicon pillar 10, in another possible embodiment, when the second carrier 222 lifts the silicon pillar 10 from the first carrier 221, the first placement groove 2211 and the second placement groove 2221 are partially staggered. Specifically, the bottom of the second placement groove 2221 is located directly below the first guide slope 2212. When the second placement groove 2221 lifts the silicon pillar 10 from the first placement groove 2211, the silicon pillar 10 rolls downward along the second guide slope 2222, thereby causing the silicon pillar 10 to rotate itself. As a result, the heating device 200 located above the silicon pillar 10 can fully and evenly heat the four sides of the silicon pillar 10, thereby sufficiently high-temperature heating the four sides of the silicon pillar 10, and then the silicon pillar 10 can be fully crushed.

[0058] Furthermore, a second support pad 2223 is provided on the second guide bevel 2222 to guide the silicon column 10 to roll along the side wall of the second support pad 2223, wherein the second support pad 2213 can be made of high-temperature resistant materials such as silicon oxide and silicon carbide, and the surface of the first support pad 2213 can be provided with anti-slip grooves to increase friction. Specifically, through the provision of the second support pad 2223, there is a sufficiently large friction between the silicon column 10 and the second support pad 2223, so that the silicon column 10 can rotate itself during the sliding process along the second guide bevel 2222, thereby allowing the heating device 200 located above the silicon column 10 to fully and evenly heat the four sides of the silicon column 10, thereby heating the four sides of the silicon column 10 at high temperature, and then conveniently crushing the silicon column 10.

[0059] In addition, by disposing the second support pad 2223 , the second support pad 2223 can effectively prevent the first carrier 221 from contaminating the silicon column 10 , thereby ensuring the subsequent use of the silicon column 10 .

[0060] In other possible embodiments, the conveying mechanism 220 may adopt other structural forms, such as a circulating motion carrier, and the circulating motion carrier is correspondingly provided with a pressing jig. When the silicon column 10 passes through the pressing jig along with the circulating motion carrier, the friction between the pressing jig and the silicon column 10 is used to achieve rotational adjustment of the silicon column 10, so that the heating device uniformly heats the silicon column 10 at high temperature.

[0061] In some embodiments, see Figures 3 and 4 The first driving module 223 includes a first driving member 2231 and a second driving member 2232. The first driving member 2231 is provided on the machine 210 and is used to provide a force in the conveying direction, i.e., a conveying force in the left-right direction. The second driving member 2232 is provided on the first driving member 2231 and is used to provide a force in the up-down direction. The second carrier 222 is provided on the second driving member 2232. The first driving member 2231 can be a motor screw structure, or a transmission structure such as a sprocket or chain, without limitation.

[0062] Among them, the second driving member 2232 includes four elevators 2234, four transmission shafts 2233 and a motor 2235, wherein the four elevators 2234 are provided with a lifting part and two transmission parts, and the lifting part is connected to the second carrier 222; the four transmission shafts 2233 are respectively connected to the transmission parts of adjacent elevators 2234; the motor 2235 is used to drive the transmission shaft 2233 to rotate.

[0063] In a specific application, when the second carrier 222 needs to support or place the silicon pillar 10, the motor 2235 drives the transmission shaft 2233 to rotate, and the transmission shaft 2233 drives the lifting part to move up and down, thereby supporting or placing the silicon pillar 10. When the second carrier 222 needs to receive or transfer a material pillar, the first driving member 2231 drives the second driving member 2232 to move left and right, thereby driving the second carrier 222 to move left and right, thereby receiving or transferring the silicon pillar 10.

[0064] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 6 The second carrier 222 is provided with a material receiving section 2224, and the material receiving section 2224 can be in an extended state relative to the first carrier 221; at the same time, the loading device 100 includes a third carrier 110 and a second driving module 120. The second driving module 120 is arranged on the machine 210, and is used to drive the third carrier 110 to slide along its length direction, that is, to slide in the left and right directions, so that it can overlap with the material receiving section 2224 in the extended state. The third carrier 110 is provided with a plurality of third placement slots 111 in sequence along its length direction.

[0065] In a specific application, when the conveying mechanism 220 needs to be supplied with silicon pillars 10, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to slide to the left, and the receiving section 2224 is extended to the left relative to the first carrier 221. At the same time, the second drive module 120 drives the third carrier 110 to move to the right, and the third carrier 110 coincides with the receiving section 2224 of the second carrier 222. At this time, the silicon pillars 10 on the third carrier 110 are located directly above the receiving section 2224. Then, the first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to move upward, and the second carrier 222 lifts the third carrier 110 and the silicon pillars 10 on the first carrier 221 upward. The first drive module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to move to the right, and the receiving section 2224 of the second carrier 222 coincides with the first carrier 221. The receiving section 2224 transports the silicon pillars 10 to the top of the first carrier 221. The first driving module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to move downward, and the receiving section 2224 places the carried silicon column 10 on the first carrier 221 , thereby transferring the silicon column 10 from the third carrier 110 to the first carrier 221 for subsequent transportation along the first carrier 221 .

[0066] Furthermore, the loading device 100 further includes a fourth carrier 130 and a third driving module 140. The third driving module 140 is used to drive the fourth carrier 130 to move up and down. The fourth carrier 130 is sequentially provided with a plurality of fourth placement slots 131 along its length direction.

[0067] Also see Figures 7 and 8The third carrier 110 includes a feeding section 112 and a discharging section 113, and the feeding section 112 and the discharging section 113 are arranged at equal distances. When the feeding section 112 extends relative to the fourth carrier 130, it receives the incoming silicon column 10, and the discharging section 113 is aligned with the fourth carrier 130 to be able to support the silicon column 10 on the fourth carrier 130; when the discharging section 113 extends relative to the fourth carrier 130, the discharging section 113 coincides with the receiving section 2224 to be able to transfer the silicon column 10 from the discharging section 113 to the receiving section 2224, and the feeding section 112 is aligned with the fourth carrier 130 to transfer the silicon column 10 to the fourth carrier 130.

[0068] For example, the feed section 112 and the discharge section 113 are configured to have the same length, which is half the length of the fourth carrier 130. It is understood that the length of the fourth carrier 130 is twice the length of the feed section 112, the middle section 2225, and the discharge section 113. The third carrier 110 and the fourth carrier 130 can cooperate to transport the silicon pillars 10.

[0069] Specifically, in the first stage, the third drive module 140 drives the fourth carrier 130 upward, and the fourth carrier 130 lifts the silicon pillar 10 on the third placement slot 111 of the third carrier 110 upward through the fourth placement slot 131. In the second stage, the second drive module 120 is used to drive the third carrier 110 to move leftward by the distance of the feed section 112. At this time, the feed section 112 of the third carrier 110 is extended to the left relative to the fourth carrier 130, and an external device can add silicon pillars 10 to the feed section 112. In the third stage, the third drive module 140 drives the fourth carrier 130 downward, and the fourth carrier 130 places the silicon pillar 10 in the third placement slot 111 of the third carrier 110 through the fourth placement slot 131. In the fourth stage, the second drive module 120 is used to drive the third carrier 110 to move rightward by the distance of the discharge section 113. At this time, the discharge section 113 is in an extended state to the right relative to the fourth carrier 130, that is, the silicon pillars 10 in the discharge section 113 can be transferred to the receiving section 2224. For details, please refer to the above description. At the same time, the feed section 112 is aligned with the fourth carrier 130, and the third drive module 140 drives the fourth carrier 130 to move upward, thereby supporting the silicon pillars 10 in the feed section 112 and the silicon pillars 10 at other positions on the third carrier 110. This cycle continues, and the third carrier 110 can continuously supply silicon pillars 10 to be heated to the heating device 200 through the fourth carrier 130.

[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 5The second carrier 222 includes an intermediate section 2225 and an outgoing section 2226. The intermediate section 2225 is connected between the receiving section 2224 and the outgoing section 2226. When the outgoing section 2226 extends relative to the first carrier 221, the receiving section 2224 is aligned with the first carrier 221. The length of the intermediate section 2225 is X1, and the lengths of the feeding section 112 and the outgoing section 113 are X2, where X1 = nX2, and n is greater than or equal to 1.

[0071] Specifically, during the feeding phase, the first driving module 223 drives the second carrier 222 to move a set distance to the left. At this time, the receiving section 2224 is in an extended state relative to the first carrier 221, and the loading device 100 can add silicon pillars 10 to the receiving section 2224. At the same time, the discharging section 113 is in a relatively aligned state with the first carrier 221, and the second carrier 222 simultaneously carries each silicon pillar 10 on the first carrier 221. During the discharging phase, the driving module drives the second carrier 222 to move a set distance to the right. At this time, the outgoing section 2226 is in an extended state relative to the first carrier 221, and an external device can grab the silicon pillar 10 from the outgoing section 2226. At the same time, the receiving section 2224 is in an aligned state with the first carrier 221, thereby placing the received silicon pillar 10 on the first carrier 221.

[0072] During the feeding phase, the middle section 2225 carries the silicon pillars 10 on the first carrier 221. During the discharging phase, the middle section 2225 shifts the silicon pillars 10 to the right by a set distance and replaces them in the first placement slot 2211 of the first carrier 221. Thus, during the feeding and discharging phases, the middle section 2225 continuously transfers the silicon pillars 10 on the first carrier 221 toward the cooling device 400.

[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The cooling device 400 includes a water tank and a transport mechanism. Specifically, the transport mechanism receives the silicon pillars 10 from the heating device 200 and places the silicon pillars 10 into the liquid cooling water in the water tank to cool the silicon pillars 10. The cooled silicon pillars 10 are then transferred to the stepping conveyor 500 for transport toward the crushing device 300. Then, a robot 600 grabs the cooled silicon pillars 10 from the stepping conveyor 500 and places them into the crushing device 300 to crush the silicon pillars.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
