Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quartz crucible melting detection, in particular to a fused quartz crucible defect detection equipment. BACKGROUND
[0002] Fused quartz crucible has good thermal stability, low thermal expansion coefficient and thermal conductivity, and will not chemically react with silicon at high temperature, so it is widely used in polycrystalline silicon ingot production. In addition, quartz ceramics also have good dielectric strength, are good electrical insulators and light wave reflectors. Because fused quartz ceramics have many excellent properties, they have been rapidly promoted and applied since their inception, and their application fields involve metallurgy, chemical industry, electrical industry, aerospace and other industrial fields.
[0003] At present, the defect detection of quartz crucible is mainly for the finished product after molding. This detection method can only avoid defective products caused by bad processes in the molding link, and cannot improve the quality of quartz crucible molding. Because the raw materials such as quartz sand are filled in the mold, under the action of high temperature, the internal gap will be converted into bubbles during the process of changing from solid state to molten state after the mold is closed, and then the internal pressure of the mold will be increased. If the bubbles cannot be effectively and timely removed in the molten state, it will have a serious negative impact on its performance, service life and downstream processes (such as single crystal silicon growth) it serves. For example:
[0004] 1. As internal defects, bubbles will become stress concentration points. During high temperature heating or cooling, cracks are easy to occur around the bubbles due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient, which significantly increases the risk of cracking or bursting of the crucible.
[0005] 2. The gas (air or water vapor) in the bubble expands at high temperature, which may cause local pressure rise and cause micro-explosion or bulging.
[0006] 3. Quartz crucible is mainly used for growing single crystal silicon by the Czochralski method (CZ method), and it contains molten silicon. If the crucible has bubbles, it will directly affect the quality of the crystal: the bubbles may contain water (OH⁻), metal ions or hydrocarbons and other impurities. Bubble rupture or local outgassing will cause local disturbance of molten silicon, destroying the stability of temperature field and flow field.
[0007] Therefore, in the preparation process of quartz crucible, the generation of bubbles must be strictly controlled, which is a key link to ensure its high performance and high reliability.
[0008] In view of this, a fused quartz crucible defect detection equipment is designed to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

A mold pressing rod 2504 is inserted into the inside of the upper mold 2501, and a secondary insertion hole is formed at the outer end of the first end rod 230.
[0055] The bottom end of the lower mold 250 is symmetrical to the inner slot of the top pad plate 130, and the pressure detector 1504 is adapted to be attached to the pressure receiving end 2503;
[0056] The outer wall of the gauge leg 150 is provided with a scale for calibrating the real-time height of the support plate 1502 and the pressure detector 1504 after being pressed on the pressure receiving end 2503;
[0057] The outer side of the truss 210 is fixedly installed with a horizontal end plate 2101, and the top of the truss 210 is fixedly installed with a vertical end plate 2102. Two clamping blocks 2103 are fixedly installed on both sides of the truss 210. A guide rod 2104 is fixedly installed in the inside of the clamping block 2103, and the guide rod 2104 is adapted to penetrate into the inside of the gasket 1102.

[0061] The combustible gas is transported into the furnace 1401 along the gas inlet pipe 1402, and the jet is formed by the furnace 1401. At this time, the jet will continuously heat the bottom of the lower mold 250, and the quartz sand and other raw materials filled into the inner cavity of the lower mold 250 can be heated;
[0062] When the upper mold 2501 is clamped with the four column heads 2502 and the lower mold 250, the upper mold 2501, the lower mold 250 and the mold pressing rod 2504 in the closed mold can be quickly hot-melted;

When the solid material in the lower mold 250, the upper mold 2501 and the column head 2502 is converted to a molten state, the gap in the solid material will become a bubble in the molten material. Under the action of high temperature, the pressure in the mold cavity will change. At this time, the real-time pressure change in the mold cavity is detected by the pressure detector 1504, and the change of the pressure in the mold cavity is observed to determine whether there is a defect after the molten material is shaped.
