Description

Technical Field

[0002] The existing vacuum magnetic coupling sample transfer rod is divided into four parts: outer tube, outer magnetic sleeve, inner magnetic rod, and lifting seat. The outer magnetic sleeve can rotate around the outer tube, drive the inner magnetic rod to rotate through magnetic coupling, and the rotation of the inner magnetic rod drives the lifting seat up and down through the gear rack, thereby converting the rotational motion outside the vacuum into the up and down motion inside the vacuum; the outer magnetic sleeve can also move linearly along the outer tube, drive the inner magnetic rod and the lifting seat to move linearly as a whole through magnetic coupling, thereby converting the linear motion outside the vacuum into the linear motion inside the vacuum.

[0003] The outer magnetic sleeve of the existing vacuum magnetic coupling transfer rod has a single function and cannot achieve independent linear and rotational motion. When the outer magnetic sleeve moves linearly, it cannot be guaranteed that the outer magnetic sleeve does not rotate around the outer tube; when it moves rotationally, it cannot be guaranteed that the outer magnetic sleeve does not move linearly along the outer tube, thus affecting the accuracy of the motion.

[0128] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all embodiments.

[0129] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", "top", "bottom" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present disclosure. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be the internal connection of two elements. In the description of the present disclosure, the distal end or the distal side refers to an end or a side that penetrates into a vacuum environment (e.g., a vacuum chamber), and the proximal end or the proximal side refers to an end or a side opposite to the distal end or the distal side (e.g., an end or a side that is away from the vacuum chamber, or an end or a side that is close to the vacuum chamber wall in the vacuum chamber, etc.). For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0130] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a vacuum magnetic drive device 100 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 2 Show Figure 1 AA cross-section diagram. Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of a driving magnetic assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 4 A cross-sectional schematic diagram of a drive magnet assembly according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0131] like Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the vacuum magnetic drive device 100 may include an outer sleeve 110, a driving magnetic assembly 120 and a transmission magnetic assembly 130. The outer sleeve 110 is used to form a vacuum chamber. Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the driving magnet assembly 120 may include a rotary motion driving magnet 121 and a linear motion driving magnet 122. The linear motion driving magnet 122 is rotationally connected to the rotary motion driving magnet 121 (for example, the linear motion driving magnet 122 and the rotary motion driving magnet 121 may be rotationally connected via a driving magnet bearing 123), and the linear motion driving magnet 122 can drive the rotary motion driving magnet 121 to move linearly. Figure 2 As shown, the transmission magnet assembly 130 may include a transmission rod 131 and a transmission magnet 132. The transmission magnet 132 is connected to the transmission rod 131, and the driving magnet assembly 120 is magnetically coupled to the transmission magnet 132 to drive the transmission rod 131 to perform linear motion or rotational motion.

[0132] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the present disclosure, magnets (e.g., rotary motion drive magnets 121, linear motion drive magnets 122, or transmission magnets 132) should be interpreted broadly and may include magnetic objects (e.g., permanent magnets), materials that can magnetically couple with magnetic objects (e.g., iron), or devices that can generate magnetism (e.g., electromagnets), etc. In addition, for the convenience of description, in the present disclosure, magnets may refer to individual magnetic objects or devices, or to components of magnetic objects or devices. For example, a magnet may refer to a plurality of permanent magnets arranged in a distributed manner and a frame or body that supports the permanent magnets. For another example, the linear motion drive magnet 122 is rotatably connected to the rotary motion drive magnet 121, which can be achieved by connecting the frame in the linear motion drive magnet 122 to the frame in the rotary motion drive magnet 121 using a drive magnet bearing 123, such as Figure 4 As shown, and described in detail below.

[0133] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the transmission magnet 132 includes a transmission magnet fixing shaft 13201, and the transmission magnet fixing shaft 13201 is connected to the transmission rod 131 through a coupling 134a. In some embodiments, an intermediate connecting rod may be further provided between the transmission magnet fixing shaft 13201 and the transmission rod 131, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5B For simplicity, the intermediate connecting rod can be regarded as a part of the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201 or the transmission rod 131. For example, in some embodiments, the intermediate connecting rod is a part of the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201, the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201 is a stepped shaft, and the distal end diameter of the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201 is smaller than the proximal end diameter, so as to facilitate the distal end of the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201 to be connected to the transmission rod 131 through the coupling 134a.

[0134] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the drive magnet assembly 120 may further include a linear motion locking member 126 and / or a rotational motion locking member 125. The linear motion locking member 126 is used to lock the linear motion drive magnet 122. When a rotational motion is performed, the linear motion drive magnet 122 is locked by the linear motion locking member 126, for example, the friction between the outer sleeve 110 and the linear motion drive magnet 122 is increased, thereby achieving linear motion locking. The rotational motion locking member 125 is used to lock the rotational motion drive magnet 121. When a linear motion is performed, the rotational motion drive magnet 121 is locked by the rotational motion locking member 125, for example, by locking the rotational motion drive magnet 121 with the linear motion drive magnet 122, thereby preventing rotational motion from occurring during linear motion.

[0135] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the drive magnet assembly 120 may further include a drive magnet bearing 123. The drive magnet bearing 123 rotatably connects the linear motion drive magnet 122 with the rotary motion drive magnet 121 (e.g., Figure 4 As shown, the inner ring of the driving magnet bearing 123 is fixedly connected to the linear motion driving magnet 122, and the outer ring of the driving magnet bearing 123 is fixedly connected to the rotary motion driving magnet 121). The rotary motion driving magnet 121 can perform a rotary motion relative to the linear motion driving magnet 122, and the linear motion driving magnet 122 can drive the rotary motion driving magnet 121 to perform a linear motion.

[0136] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the linear motion locking member 126 may include a linear motion locking nut, and / or the rotary motion locking member 125 may include a rotary motion locking nut. The linear motion locking nut 126 is passed through the linear motion driving magnet 122, and the end thereof can abut against the outer sleeve 110 to lock the linear motion driving magnet 122. The rotary motion locking nut 125 is passed through the rotary motion driving magnet 121, and the end thereof can abut against the linear motion driving magnet 122 to lock the rotary motion driving magnet 121.

[0137] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 3-Figure 4 The linear motion locking nut and the rotary motion locking nut shown are only exemplary. The vacuum magnetic drive device 100 may include multiple linear motion locking nuts and / or multiple rotary motion locking nuts, or may include other types of locking members, such as a rebound bayonet, etc.

[0138] Figure 5A A schematic structural diagram of a transmission magnetic assembly 130 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 5BShow Figure 5A CC cross-section diagram.

[0139] like Figure 5A , Figure 5B , Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the transmission magnet assembly 130 may further include a transmission rod sleeve 133. The transmission rod sleeve 133 is disposed between the transmission rod 131 and the outer sleeve 110, and is sleeved outside the transmission rod 131. The proximal end of the transmission rod sleeve 133 is rotatably connected to the transmission magnet 132, and the outer wall of the transmission rod sleeve 133 is slidably connected to the outer sleeve 110.

[0140] like Figure 5A and Figure 5B As shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the vacuum magnetic drive device 100 may further include at least one set of bearing assemblies 150. At least one set of bearing assemblies 150 may include a rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 and / or a front raceway bearing seat assembly 153. The rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 is disposed at the proximal end of the transmission magnet 132 and is rotatably connected to the transmission magnet 132. For example, Figure 5B As shown, the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 can be rotatably connected to the transmission magnet 132 (for example, the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201) through a bearing. The rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve 110. The front raceway bearing seat assembly 153 is arranged at the far end of the transmission magnet 132, and is rotatably connected to the transmission magnet 132 and / or the transmission rod 131. For example, the front raceway bearing seat assembly 153 can be rotatably connected to the transmission magnet 132 (for example, the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201) and / or the transmission rod 131 through a bearing. In addition, the front raceway bearing seat assembly 153 is fixedly connected to the transmission rod sleeve 133, and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve 110.

[0141] Fig. 6A A schematic structural diagram of a rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0142] Figure 6B A side view of a rear raceway bearing adapter assembly 151 is shown according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 6C Show Figure 6B DD cross-section diagram. Fig.6D Show Figure 6C A magnified schematic diagram of the area within the circle.

[0143] like Figure 6A-6DAs shown, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 may include a rear raceway bearing frame 15101, at least one rear raceway wheel shaft 15102, and at least one rear raceway wheel 15103. The rear raceway bearing frame 15101 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the transmission magnet 132, for example, the rear raceway bearing frame 15101 and the proximal end of the transmission magnet 132 may be rotatably connected to the proximal end of the transmission magnet fixed shaft 13201 through a bearing. At least one rear raceway wheel shaft 15102 is arranged on the rear raceway bearing frame 15101 at intervals along the circumference of the rear raceway bearing frame 15101. At least one rear raceway wheel 15103 is mounted on at least one rear raceway wheel shaft 15102, and at least one rear raceway wheel 15103 can roll on the inner wall of the outer sleeve 110 without gap along the axial direction of the outer sleeve 110.

[0144] When the linear motion driving magnet 122 performs linear motion, the transmission magnet assembly 130 can be driven to perform linear motion through magnetic coupling. The transfer magnet 132, the transmission rod 131 and the transmission rod sleeve 133 slide along the axial direction of the outer sleeve 110 through the rolling of the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 on the inner wall of the outer sleeve 110 to perform linear motion. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the outer surface of the rear raceway wheel 15103 fits the inner surface of the outer sleeve 110, so that the outer wall of at least one rear raceway wheel 15103 can roll on the inner wall of the outer sleeve 110 along the axial direction of the outer sleeve 110 without gap, so that the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 can have a larger load, extend the service life of the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 and have better guiding performance.

[0145] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 6A-6D As shown, the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 may include a rear raceway bearing frame 15101, six rear raceway runner shafts 15102, and six rear raceway runners 15103. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that this is merely exemplary, and the rear raceway bearing seat assembly 151 may also include other numbers of rear raceway runner shafts 15102 and rear raceway runners 15103.
