[0002] A vacuum coating machine is a coating device that can provide a high degree of vacuum for coating. Its main coating principles are evaporation and sputtering. In evaporation coating with multiple evaporation sources, it is necessary to control the baffle mechanism to block the designated evaporation source so that the unblocked evaporation source can work normally.

[0003] The baffle mechanism generally includes a baffle and a baffle frame that controls the movement of the baffle. Since a large amount of film material is attached to the bottom surface of the baffle, the baffle needs to be removed and cleaned regularly. Since the baffle and the baffle frame are connected by bolts, certain tools are needed to assist in removing the baffle, which is more laborious, and the coating environment may be contaminated when using tools to remove the baffle.

[0007] The mounting cover is in the shape of a cylindrical bin body with an open lower end, and an annular track and a plurality of slots are provided on the inner wall of the mounting cover. The slots are arranged in a circular array and connect the annular track and the bottom of the mounting cover. Extrusion blocks matching the number of slots are arranged vertically in the annular track, and the extrusion blocks are arranged in a circular array and respectively arranged between adjacent slots.

[0009] The baffle frame is arranged in the chamber of the vacuum coating machine and is used to support and drive the installation cover to move.

[0010] Furthermore, a lifting channel is provided on the upper surface of the mounting cover, which vertically penetrates into the annular track. The number and size of the lifting channels match the extrusion block. The extrusion block slides in the lifting channel, and a drive plate is connected to its upper end. The drive plate is equipped with an electric screw, which is vertically arranged on the upper surface of the mounting cover.

[0011] Furthermore, both ends of the lower surface of the extrusion block along the circumferential direction of the mounting cover and both ends of the upper surface of the clamping block along the circumferential direction of the matching disk are provided with chamfers, and a spring is vertically connected between the extrusion block and the driving plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the baffle frame includes a fixed rod and a driving rod.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the implementation methods of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the embodiments described in the utility model are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an evaporation source baffle mechanism of a vacuum coating machine, including a mounting cover 1, a baffle 2, and a baffle frame 3.

[0022] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the mounting cover 1 is in the shape of a cylindrical bin with an open lower end, and an inner wall surface of the mounting cover 1 is provided with an annular track 11 and a plurality of slots 12. Specifically, in this example, four slots 12 are provided; the slots 12 are arranged in a circular array and connect the annular track 11 and the bottom of the mounting cover 1, and extrusion blocks 13 matching the number of the slots 12 are provided vertically movable in the annular track 11, and the extrusion blocks 13 are arranged in a circular array and are respectively arranged between adjacent slots 12.

[0023] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a mating disk 21 is provided on the upper surface of the baffle 2, and the outer diameter of the mating disk 21 matches the inner diameter of the mounting cover 1, and is used to extend into the interior of the mounting cover 1; a number of clamping blocks 22 matching the clamping slot 12 are provided on the edge of the mating disk 21, and the clamping blocks 22 are arranged in a circular array and have sizes matching the clamping slot 12, and the clamping blocks 22 are used to extend from the clamping slot 12 into the annular track 11.

[0024] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the baffle frame 3 is arranged in the chamber of the vacuum coating machine, and is used to support and drive the installation cover 1 to move.

[0025] During operation, when the baffle 2 needs to be installed, the block 22 is aligned with the slot 12, and the block 22 is extended into the annular track 11 through the slot 12, and the baffle 2 is rotated so that the block 22 slides in the annular track 11 to just below the extrusion block 13, and the extrusion block 13 is moved downward so that the extrusion block 13 presses the block 22 into the annular track 11, thereby completing the fixation of the baffle 2 in the installation cover 1; when the baffle 2 needs to be removed, only the extrusion block 13 needs to be moved upward and the baffle 2 needs to be rotated so that the block 22 can be withdrawn from the slot 21 and the annular track 11, and the baffle 2 can be removed from the installation cover 1.

[0026] Preferably, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a lifting channel 14 is provided on the upper surface of the mounting cover 1 and vertically penetrates into the annular track 11. The number and size of the lifting channels 14 match the extrusion blocks 13. The extrusion blocks 13 are slidably fitted in the lifting channels 14. A driving plate 15 is connected to the upper end thereof. The driving plate 15 is matched with an electric screw 16. The electric screw 16 is vertically arranged on the upper surface of the mounting cover 1. The electric screw 16 is used to drive the extrusion blocks 13 to move vertically in the lifting channels 14 through the driving plate 15.

[0027] Preferably, Figure 2~Figure 4As shown, both ends of the lower surface of the extrusion block 13 along the circumferential direction of the mounting cover 1 and both ends of the upper surface of the clamping block 22 along the circumferential direction of the matching disk 21 are provided with chamfers, and a spring 17 is vertically connected between the extrusion block 13 and the driving plate 15. During operation, when the clamping block 22 slides in the lifting channel 14, its chamfered surface contacts the chamfered surface of the extrusion block 13 and pushes the extrusion block 13 upward, and the spring 17 is compressed. When the upper surface of the clamping block 22 contacts the lower surface of the extrusion block 13, the elastic force of the spring 17 drives the extrusion block 13 to squeeze the clamping block 22, thereby fixing the clamping block 22. Under this preferred scheme, there is no need to actively move the extrusion block 13 during the installation of the baffle 2 to the mounting cover 1, thereby simplifying the operating steps of fixing the baffle 2.

[0028] Preferably, Figure 2 As shown, the baffle frame 3 includes a fixed rod 31 and a driving rod 32. The fixed rod 31 is vertically installed in the vacuum coating machine chamber, and the upper end of the fixed rod is coaxially connected with a first rotating mechanism 33. The first rotating mechanism can adopt a rotating motor, a rotating cylinder or other rotating driving mechanical device; the driving shaft of the first rotating mechanism 33 is connected with a rotating seat 34, one end of the driving rod 32 is rotatably matched with the rotating seat 34, and a second rotating mechanism 35 is provided on the rotating seat 34. The second rotating mechanism 35 can adopt a rotating motor, a rotating cylinder or other rotating driving mechanical device; the second rotating mechanism 35 is arranged perpendicular to the driving rod 32, the driving shaft of the second rotating mechanism 35 is vertically connected to one end of the driving rod 32, and the other end of the driving rod 32 is connected to the mounting cover 1, the first rotating mechanism 33 is used to drive the mounting cover 1 and the baffle 2 to rotate along a horizontal axis, and the horizontal axis refers to the axis parallel to the bottom of the vacuum coating machine chamber; the second rotating mechanism 35 is used to drive the mounting cover 1 and the baffle 2 to rotate along a vertical axis, and the vertical axis refers to the axis perpendicular to the bottom of the vacuum coating machine chamber.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application.
