When evaporation is required, the heating device 20 is started, the heating component heats the heat-conducting medium container 21, and the heat-conducting medium container 21 transfers heat to the evaporation material container 30, so as to heat the evaporation material placed in the evaporation material container 30. Since the evaporation material container 30 is placed in the heat-conducting medium container 21, the heat-conducting medium container 21 can transfer heat from the bottom and the side to the evaporation material container 30, and the temperature control device can control the heat distribution in the heat-conducting medium container 21 to be uniform, so that the evaporation material container 30 can be heated more uniformly, which is conducive to quickly and accurately controlling the temperature rise rate of the evaporation material, thereby improving the coating quality and coating efficiency.
[0041] In some embodiments, the temperature control device is a stirring device. During the heating process, the stirring device can stir the heat-conducting medium in the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 to make the heat-conducting medium be heated more evenly, so as to avoid the heat transferred by the heating component to the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 being concentrated on the bottom of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21, so that the evaporation material container 30 can quickly reach the required temperature. In addition to the stirring device, the temperature control device can also use a storage barrel rotation drive device that controls the rotation of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 relative to the heating component, or a heating part rotation drive device that controls the rotation of the heating component relative to the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21. For example, when at least part of the heating structure of the heating component is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21, during the heating process, the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 or the heating component can be controlled to rotate to improve the uniformity of heating of the heat-conducting medium in the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21.

[0044] It should be noted that arranging the heating component below the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 is only a specific arrangement. The heating component can also be arranged on the periphery of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21. For example, the heating component includes heat-conducting wires spirally distributed along the periphery of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21; or the heating component includes a plurality of heating rods evenly distributed along the periphery of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel, and the axes of the heating rods are parallel to the axes of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21; or the heating component includes a heating cylinder bent into a cylindrical shape by a heating plate, and the heating cylinder is sleeved on the periphery of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21. In addition, the heating component can also include a heating plate, which is arranged below the bottom of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21. The heating plate can be made of a spiral heating wire or a heating plate. By arranging the heating component on the periphery and bottom of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21, the heat conduction efficiency and heat conduction uniformity of the heat-conducting medium storage barrel 21 can be improved.
[0045] In some embodiments, the evaporation material container 30 can be detachably connected to the upper part of the heating chamber to facilitate maintenance and inspection of the heating rod 22 and the electric motor 41, wherein the evaporation material container 30 can be installed on the upper part of the heating chamber by snap-fitting or other detachable connection methods.
[0046] In some embodiments, a heat transfer medium injection hole 211 is provided at the upper end of the heat transfer medium storage barrel 21.

The heat-conducting medium may be metal magnesium powder or copper powder. The heat-conducting medium may be filled into the heat-conducting medium filling cavity of the heat-conducting medium accommodating barrel 21 through the heat-conducting medium injection hole 211.
[0047] In some embodiments, the cooling device 10 includes a cooling liquid container, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the coolant container, the heat transfer medium container 21 and the evaporation material container 30 are distributed from the outside to the inside, forming a three-layer structure, and the side walls of the three are in contact in sequence to ensure the uniformity of heat transfer.

When a certain pot cover 31 is needed, the corresponding pot cover 31 can be selected and connected to the crucible, thereby meeting different evaporation requirements. In addition, the shape of the crucible can also be customized according to the evaporation requirements.
[0049] In some embodiments, the evaporation heating and cooling system also includes a controller, which is connected to the cooling device 10 and the heating device 20. The controller is used to send a cooling control signal to the cooling device 10 when the evaporation rate is greater than a preset evaporation rate threshold, so as to increase the cooling temperature of the cooling device 10, thereby reducing the thermal conductivity temperature of the heat transfer medium holding barrel 21, thereby reducing the evaporation rate, wherein the cooling temperature of the cooling device 10 can be achieved by adjusting the flow rate of the coolant, the larger the flow rate of the coolant, the faster the cooling rate, and the smaller the flow rate of the coolant, the smaller the cooling rate; when the evaporation rate is less than the preset evaporation rate threshold, a heating control signal is sent to the heating device 20 to increase the heating temperature of the heating device 20, thereby increasing the thermal conductivity temperature of the heat transfer medium holding barrel 21, thereby increasing the evaporation rate. In addition, the controller can also be connected to the stirring device, and the controller can control the stirring rate of the stirring device. Specifically, temperature sensors can be respectively set at the bottom and side of the heat transfer medium holding barrel 21, and the temperature sensors are connected to the controller. When the temperature difference detected by the temperature sensors at the two positions exceeds the temperature threshold preset in the controller, the stirring device can be controlled to perform stirring operation. When the stirring device is in the stirring operation state, the stirring rate of the stirring device can be increased. When the temperature difference detected by the temperature sensors at the two positions does not exceed the temperature threshold preset in the controller, the stirring device can be controlled to stop the stirring operation to reduce the energy consumption of the stirring device.
[0050] It should be noted that, in addition to the coolant container, the cooling device 10 also includes an infusion pipeline and a liquid pump. The liquid pump can transport the coolant to the coolant container through the infusion pipeline.
