Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of membrane plate technology, specifically a membrane plate structure that can be quickly operated and maintained. Background Technology

[0002] A film baffle is a key tooling component in coating / film formation processes used to control film distribution, prevent excess film deposition, and limit film thickness and coverage. It is mainly used in film formation production scenarios such as vacuum coating, coating, and spraying. Its core function is to use physical blocking to ensure that the film is deposited on the workpiece surface according to a preset area, thickness, and contour, preventing non-target areas from being covered by the film, while ensuring film uniformity and consistency.

[0003] The common implementation of current membrane baffles mostly uses aluminum sheets as the base and wraps them with aluminum foil. In the film thickness adjustment process, it is usually necessary to cut the aluminum sheet with scissors according to actual needs, or to cut a separate aluminum sheet to make dimensional compensation at the corresponding position, and then fix it with adhesive tape. The overall operation steps are relatively cumbersome, and the adjustment efficiency needs to be improved. At the same time, the aluminum sheet may deform during cutting and subsequent use, which will affect the membrane baffle effect. During equipment maintenance, aluminum foil needs to be re-wrapped on the surface of the aluminum sheet. However, the compatibility between aluminum foil and the film layer is limited. With the increase of the usage cycle, the film layer is prone to peeling off, which will affect the cleanliness of the equipment. Regular replacement of aluminum foil is required, resulting in a relatively short maintenance cycle and increased consumable consumption and maintenance workload. Therefore, we propose a membrane baffle structure that allows for rapid operation and maintenance. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-7This invention provides a membrane barrier structure technical solution for rapid operation and maintenance: A membrane barrier structure for rapid operation and maintenance includes a support plate 1. Multiple sets of adjustment units 2 are arranged at intervals along the length of the support plate 1. Each set of adjustment units 2 consists of a mounting plate 3 and a movable plate 4. The mounting plate 3 is fixedly connected to the support plate 1, and a movable groove 5 extending along the length of the mounting plate 3 is opened inside the mounting plate 3. The movable plate 4 is clearance-fitted with the movable groove 5 and is slidably assembled in the movable groove 5. It can slide back and forth along the length of the movable groove 5. The operation and maintenance adjustment of the membrane barrier is realized by the sliding adjustment of the movable plate 4.

[0020] An elastic locking component is provided between the mounting plate 3 and the movable plate 4, which restricts the relative sliding between the mounting plate 3 and the movable plate 4.

[0021] The elastic snap-fit ​​assembly specifically includes a groove 6, a movable block 7, a first spring 8, a snap-fit ​​block 9, and a snap-fit ​​groove 10. The groove 6 is formed on the inner wall of the movable groove 5, and the extension direction of the groove 6 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the movable groove 5. The first spring 8 is set in the groove 6, with one end fixedly connected to the bottom of the groove 6 and the other end fixedly connected to one end of the movable block 7, driving the movable block 7 to reciprocate along the depth direction of the groove 6. The snap-fit ​​block 9 is integrally formed on the end of the movable block 7 away from the first spring 8, and the end of the snap-fit ​​block 9 away from the movable block 7 is set as an arc-shaped guide surface. The snap-fit ​​groove 10 is formed on the outer wall of the movable plate 4, and the shape and size of the snap-fit ​​groove 10 are adapted to the snap-fit ​​block 9. The snap-fit ​​block 9 can be snapped into the snap-fit ​​groove 10 under the elastic force of the first spring 8 to achieve the positioning of the movable plate 4.

[0022] Multiple sets of slots 10 are evenly spaced along the length of the movable plate 4. The spacing between each set of slots 10 is consistent. By engaging the locking block 9 with different slots 10, the movable plate 4 can be adjusted to multiple positions within the movable groove 5.

[0023] Through the above technical solution: In use, this membrane baffle structure uses the support plate 1 as the overall support and installation base. Multiple sets of adjustment units 2 are arranged at intervals along the length of the support plate 1. Each set of adjustment units 2 is composed of a mounting plate 3 that is fixedly connected to the support plate 1 and a movable plate 4 that can move relative to it. The mounting plate 3 has a movable groove 5 that extends through it along its length. The movable plate 4 is assembled inside the movable groove 5 with a clearance fit and can slide back and forth along the length of the movable groove 5 to adjust the membrane length, extension size and membrane position, so as to adapt to the membrane control requirements under different working conditions.

[0024] An elastic locking assembly for positioning and locking is provided between the mounting plate 3 and the movable plate 4. The groove 6 of this elastic locking assembly is formed on the inner wall of the movable groove 5, and the extension direction of the groove 6 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the movable groove 5. A first spring 8 is installed inside the groove 6. One end of the first spring 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the groove 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the movable block 7, enabling the movable block 7 to extend and retract along the depth direction of the groove 6. A locking block 9 is integrally formed at the end of the movable block 7 away from the first spring 8. The outer end of the locking block 9 is designed as an arc-shaped guide surface for easy sliding in and out. Correspondingly, a locking block 9 is uniformly formed along the length direction on the outer wall of the movable plate 4. Multiple sets of slots 10 with matching shapes and sizes are spaced apart. The locking block 9 extends outward under the elastic force of the first spring 8 and locks into the corresponding slot 10, thereby restricting the relative sliding between the movable plate 4 and the mounting plate 3, keeping the extension length of the movable plate 4 in the set position. When the position needs to be adjusted, the operator only needs to apply a pulling force to the movable plate 4. The arc-shaped guide surface of the locking block 9 is squeezed, which will drive the movable block 7 to compress the first spring 8 and retract inward, so that the locking block 9 is disengaged from the current slot 10. The movable plate 4 can then slide. After reaching the target position, the locking block 9 automatically locks into the corresponding slot 10 under the action of the spring, completing the multi-position, switchable positioning and locking.

[0025] This structure eliminates the need for cumbersome operations such as cutting, compensating, and pasting of the membrane-blocking components during use. Adjustment can be achieved simply by pulling out the movable plate 4. The entire structure utilizes high-rigidity sheet metal and square tubing, making it resistant to bending and deformation, thus maintaining the shape and size of the membrane-blocking component. Furthermore, the surface of the movable plate 4 undergoes pre-sandblasting treatment, which improves membrane adhesion, reduces membrane detachment, and extends the equipment's maintenance cycle. When maintenance or membrane removal is required, the movable plate 4 can be disassembled, and residual membrane layers can be removed by sandblasting or soaking in a membrane removal solution. After treatment, it can be reassembled and put back into use, enabling the components to be recycled and reused. Compared to traditional membrane-blocking structures with aluminum sheets wrapped in aluminum foil that require frequent replacement of consumables, this structure offers faster adjustment, simpler maintenance, improved internal cleanliness, reduced consumable consumption and labor costs, and enhanced production continuity.

[0026] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1-8 The present invention provides a membrane panel structure technical solution that can be quickly operated and maintained: a membrane panel structure that can be quickly operated and maintained, further includes multiple sets of compensation components on both sides of the movable plate 4 corresponding to the position of each set of slots 10, and the length occupied by each set of compensation components is adapted to the spacing between two adjacent sets of slots 10.

[0027] The compensation component includes a mounting groove 11, a compensation plate 12, and a second spring 13. The mounting groove 11 is formed on the side wall of the movable plate 4, and the extension direction of the mounting groove 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the movable plate 4. One end of the compensation plate 12 is embedded in the mounting groove 11 and is clearance-fitted with the mounting groove 11. The second spring 13 is disposed in the mounting groove 11, one end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 11, and the other end is fixedly connected to the end of the compensation plate 12 embedded in the mounting groove 11. A limit component is provided between the mounting groove 11 and the compensation plate 12.

[0028] The limiting component includes a limiting groove 14 and a limiting block 15; the limiting groove 14 is formed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 11, and the extending direction of the limiting groove 14 is consistent with the depth direction of the mounting groove 11; the limiting block 15 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one end of the compensation plate 12 embedded in the mounting groove 11, and the limiting block 15 and the limiting groove 14 are in clearance fit.

[0029] A stop 16 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the opening end of the limiting groove 14, and the stop 16 is located on the sliding path of the limiting block 15.

[0030] Guide blocks 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the opening of the movable slot 5 corresponding to the mounting plate 3. The end face of the guide block 17 near the movable plate 4 is set as an inclined guide surface.

[0031] The edges of the guide block 17 and the compensation plate 12 are both rounded.

[0032] Through the above technical solution: In use, multiple sets of compensation components are set on both sides of the movable plate 4 at the positions corresponding to the slots 10, and the size of each set of compensation components is adapted to the spacing between two adjacent slots 10.

[0033] The compensation component includes a mounting groove 11, a compensation plate 12, and a second spring 13. The mounting groove 11 is formed on the side wall of the movable plate 4, and the extension direction of the mounting groove 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the movable plate 4. One end of the compensation plate 12 is embedded in the mounting groove 11, forming a clearance fit with the mounting groove 11. The second spring 13 is disposed inside the mounting groove 11, with one end connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 11 and the other end connected to the end of the compensation plate 12 embedded in the mounting groove 11. Under the elastic force of the second spring 13, the compensation plate 12 has a tendency to extend outward from the mounting groove 11. A limiting component is provided between the mounting groove 11 and the compensation plate 12. The limiting component includes a limiting groove 14 and a limiting block 15. The limiting groove 14 is formed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 11, and the extension direction of the limiting groove 14 is consistent with the depth direction of the mounting groove 11. The limiting block 15 is fixed to the outer wall of the end of the compensation plate 12 that is embedded in the mounting groove 11. The limiting block 15 and the limiting groove 14 form a clearance fit and can move within the limiting groove 14. A stop block 16 is fixed on the inner wall of the opening end of the limiting groove 14. The stop block 16 is located on the movement path of the limiting block 15 and can constrain the extension range of the compensation plate 12, reducing the possibility of the compensation plate 12 disengaging from the mounting groove 11. Guide blocks 17 are fixed on both sides of the mounting plate 3 corresponding to the opening of the movable groove 5. The end face of the guide block 17 near the movable plate 4 is an inclined guide surface, and the edges of the guide block 17 and the edges of the compensation plate 12 are rounded.

[0034] When the movable plate 4 is pulled outward, the compensation plate 12 extends out of the mounting groove 11 under the action of the second spring 13, which can compensate for the gap between adjacent movable plates 4, improve the structural fit, and reduce the impact of gaps. When the movable plate 4 is retracted inward, the inclined guide surface of the guide block 17 can contact the compensation plate 12 and apply force, so that the compensation plate 12 is gradually squeezed into the mounting groove 11, making the retraction process of the movable plate 4 smoother, reducing friction and collision between components, reducing component damage, and making structural adjustment operations easier to implement, facilitating daily use and maintenance.
