[0002] The heating wire in the vacuum coating equipment is used to heat the cavity. The life of the heating wire is limited and the heating wire needs to be replaced frequently. The existing fixing structure is to first install the heating wire on the heating wire fixing block, and then fix the heating wire fixing block to the electrode with screws. Each time the heating wire is replaced, it is necessary to first loosen the screws fixing the heating wire fixing block, and then separate the heating wire fixing block from the electrode to complete the disassembly of the heating wire fixing block. Due to the limited installation space of the heating wire fixing block, the time required to disassemble and install the heating wire fixing block is relatively long. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the following embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention. After reading this description, various equivalent modifications to this description by those skilled in the art fall within the scope defined by the claims attached to this application.
[0018] Please combine Figures 1 to 4As shown, the quick-release structure of the heating wire fixing block of this embodiment includes an electrode rod 1 and a heating wire fixing block 2. The electrode rod 1 is a round rod comprising an upper section 101 and a lower section 102. The upper section 101 and lower section 102 of the electrode rod 1 can be an inseparable, integral structure or can be combined and connected. The diameter of the upper section 101 is larger than the diameter of the lower section 102, meaning that the lower section 102 is a reduced diameter section. A plurality of protruding second bumps 103 are formed around the circumference of the reduced diameter section of the lower section 102. In this embodiment, there are six second bumps 103, equally distributed around the circumference of the reduced diameter section. However, a plurality of second bumps 103 is not required; only one can achieve the purpose of the present invention. To ensure a more reliable connection, the number of second bumps 103 is generally no less than two. An annular groove 105 is formed between the second bumps 103 and the end surface of the upper section 101 of the electrode rod 1. Second grooves 104 are formed between the second bumps 103.
[0019] An elastic pin 106 is provided around the upper section 101 of the electrode rod 1. Specifically, a transverse through-hole 101a is provided in the upper section 101 of the electrode rod 1. The diameter of the front end of the through-hole 101a is slightly smaller, while the diameter of the rear end is slightly larger. The elastic pin 106 comprises a spring 106a and a pin body 106b. The pin body 106b is T-shaped. After the pin body 106b is inserted into the through-hole 101a, the spring 106a is placed at the rear end of the pin body 106b. The rear end of the through-hole 101a is fixedly sealed by the electrode cover 107. Under the action of the spring 106a, the tip of the pin body 106b protrudes from the circumference of the electrode rod 1. The elastic pin 106 is designed to mate with the positioning pin hole of the heater fixing block 2. To enable the heater fixing block 2 to more easily compress the elastic pin 106, the tip of the pin body 106b is spherical.
[0020] The heating wire fixing block 2 is used to connect the heating wire. The top surface of the heating wire fixing block 2 is provided with a mounting hole 201. The mounting hole 201 is provided with a first protrusion 202 protruding from the inner wall of the mounting hole 201. In this embodiment, there are six first protrusions 202, evenly distributed around the circumference of the mounting hole 201. However, the number of first protrusions 202 is not necessarily multiple, and only one can achieve the purpose of the invention. To make the connection more reliable, the number of first protrusions 202 is generally not less than two. A first groove 203 is formed between the first protrusions 202. In this embodiment, the mounting hole 201 is a blind hole, and a spacing is left between the first protrusion 202 and the bottom surface of the blind hole. This spacing matches the thickness of the second protrusion 103.
[0021] When the electrode rod 1 and the heating wire fixing block 2 are installed, the electrode rod 1 is inserted into the mounting hole 201, the first protrusion 202 passes through the second groove 104 and enters the clamping groove 105, and the corresponding second protrusion 103 passes through the first groove 203 and enters the position between the first protrusion 202 and the bottom surface of the blind hole, and then the heating wire fixing block 2 is rotated for clamping. Therefore, the width of the first groove 203 is greater than the width of the second protrusion 103, and the width of the second groove 104 is greater than the width of the first protrusion 202.
[0022] The inner wall of the mounting hole 201 is also provided with a positioning pin hole 204. When the electrode rod 1 is installed with the heating wire fixing block 2, the elastic pin 106 extends into the positioning pin hole 204 to achieve the purpose of installation and positioning. To facilitate the retraction of the elastic pin 106 when removing the heating wire fixing block 2, the positioning pin hole 204 is configured as a T-shaped hole in this embodiment. The aperture of the positioning pin hole 204 near the inner wall of the mounting hole 201 is smaller. A pressing rod 205 is provided in the positioning pin hole 204, slidingly arranged along the positioning pin hole 204. The middle portion of the pressing rod 205 has a limiting flange 205a. The outer end of the positioning pin hole 204 is covered by a fixing block cover 207. The fixing block cover 207 is provided with a through hole for a portion of the pressing rod 205 to be ejected. In this way, when the elastic pin 106 extends into the positioning pin hole 204, a portion of the pressing rod 205 is ejected from the positioning pin hole 204. In this embodiment, a pinhole spring 206 is provided between the pressing rod 205 and the positioning pin hole 204. The pinhole spring 206 forces a portion of the pressing rod 205 to protrude from the positioning pin hole 204. When the pressing rod 205 protrudes from the positioning pin hole 204, the protruding length of the pressing rod 205 is greater than the protruding length of the elastic pin 106 around the electrode rod 1. The end of the pressing rod 205 facing the mounting hole 201 is the tail end. The diameter of the tail end of the pressing rod 205 is greater than the diameter of the head end of the elastic pin 106. This prevents the tail end of the pressing rod 205 from entering the through-hole 101a of the electrode rod 1 when the pressing rod 205 is pressed, thus preventing the electrode rod 1 from becoming stuck.
[0023] When installing the electrode rod 1 and the heating wire fixing block 2, align the second protrusion 103 with the first groove 203, insert the electrode rod 1 into the mounting hole 201 of the heating wire fixing block 2, and the head end of the elastic pin 106 is squeezed back by the heating wire fixing block 2. After the electrode rod 1 is fully inserted, rotate the heating wire fixing block 2 so that the first protrusion 202 is engaged with the groove 105 of the electrode rod 1. The first protrusion 202 and the second protrusion 103 are positioned opposite each other until the elastic pin 106 is aligned with the positioning pin hole 204. The elastic pin 106 is engaged with the positioning pin hole 204 to complete the installation. When removing, first press the pressing rod 205 to retract the elastic pin 106, then rotate the heating wire fixing block 2 in the opposite direction so that the first protrusion 202 is rotated to the second groove 104 position, and then remove the heating wire fixing block 2.
