Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste gas treatment, in particular to an air intake device for waste gas treatment. Background Art
[0002] In the manufacturing of semiconductor industry-related products such as chips, different waste gases are generated at each stage. For example, the thermal oxidation process of the thin film deposition process generates acidic waste gas containing unreacted halogen-containing oxidants, the CVD process generates waste gas containing SiH4, SiCl4, SiH2Cl2, PH3, HF, HCl, NH3, etc., the etching process generates acid, alkali, and organic waste gas, including some gaseous byproducts (such as H2, NO, NH3, etc.), and the doping process generates acidic waste gas containing phosphine and arsine, etc. These waste gases are generally toxic and flammable. Improper handling will cause serious safety accidents, serious economic losses, and serious pollution to the environment.
[0003] Existing semiconductor waste gas treatment equipment is divided into many different types based on different principles, such as combustion exhaust gas treatment equipment, plasma exhaust gas treatment equipment, electric heating exhaust gas treatment equipment, etc. Among them, in order to avoid air pollution, the exhaust gas needs to be treated through a closed pipeline. At the same time, affected by changes in exhaust gas pressure, changes in equipment processing capacity or equipment failure, the equipment is noisy during operation and there is a safety risk of exhaust gas leakage due to increased internal pressure. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model discloses an air intake device for waste gas treatment, which solves the technical problems of high noise and leakage safety risk in the waste gas treatment pipeline in the prior art, and has the technical advantages of reasonable structure, good operation safety and low noise. The technical solution adopted is as follows:
[0005] An air intake device for waste gas treatment includes an air passing unit, wherein the air passing unit includes an air passing cavity, a plurality of first exhaust pipes and a second exhaust pipe, wherein the first ends of the first exhaust pipes and the second exhaust pipes are both connected to the air passing cavity, and the second ends of the first exhaust pipes include a first branch pipe and a second branch pipe, wherein the first branch pipe is connected to a waste gas source, and the second end of the second exhaust pipe extends outward and can be connected to a second branch pipe in another air intake device.
[0006] Based on the above technical solution, a first air valve is provided on the first branch pipe to control the on-off of the exhaust gas source, and a second one-way air valve is provided on the second branch pipe, and the second one-way air valve allows gas to pass into the air cavity from the outside to the inside.
[0007] On the basis of the above technical solution, the first ends of the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe are both connected to the air cavity through a bellows.
[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the plurality of first exhaust pipes and the plurality of second exhaust pipes are arranged axially in parallel, and the plurality of first exhaust pipes and the plurality of second exhaust pipes are arranged circumferentially at intervals around the central axis of the air cavity.
[0009] On the basis of the above technical solution, a gas flow meter is provided in each of the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe. The gas flow meter can be electrically connected to an external controller to monitor the gas flow in the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe.
[0010] On the basis of the above technical solution, a viewing window is provided on the top of the air cavity, so that the staff can view the situation in the air cavity through the viewing window.
[0011] On the basis of the above technical solution, an air pressure sensor is further provided in the air cavity, and the air pressure sensor can be electrically connected to an external controller to monitor the air pressure in the air cavity.
[0012] On the basis of the above technical solution, the air passage cavity is downwardly connected to the combustion chamber, and the first ends of the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe extend into the air passage cavity and are arranged downwardly close to the combustion chamber.
[0013] On the basis of the above technical solution, the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe are both arranged vertically, and the second exhaust pipe includes a transverse pipe section, and the transverse pipe section includes a corrugated pipe to reduce the disturbance of the second exhaust pipe caused by airflow changes.
[0014] Beneficial Effects
[0015] The utility model has a reasonable structure. The air intake device can arrange two exhaust gas treatment devices in parallel, and the air cavities of the two exhaust gas treatment devices are connected through multiple second exhaust pipes. In this way, when any exhaust gas treatment device fails and the internal pressure increases rapidly, the pressure can be released to the other exhaust gas treatment component through the second exhaust pipe in time, which can ensure that the air pressure change in the air cavity is small, which is beneficial to reducing noise. In addition, the first exhaust pipe and the first ends of the second exhaust pipe are connected to the air cavity through a bellows, which can effectively absorb the vibration caused by the change of air pressure, reduce the impact on the air cavity and subsequent tail gas treatment unit components, and help to ensure continuous and stable treatment of exhaust gas.
[0016] In addition, the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe are arranged circumferentially along the central axis of the air chamber and are arranged in sequence at intervals. This can ensure that the exhaust gas is roughly annularly introduced into the air chamber to improve the uniformity of exhaust gas diffusion. On the other hand, it can ensure that when the internal pressure in the air chamber increases, it is released in a timely and efficient manner to achieve a balanced state.
[0017] The utility model is cleverly designed, and the air passage cavities of the two exhaust gas treatment devices are connected, which is conducive to balancing the working loads of the two exhaust gas treatment devices, avoiding the problem of premature wear of one of the exhaust gas treatment components due to uneven loads, and is conducive to matching the service life of the two exhaust gas treatment devices, with good economic benefits.
