Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the relevant field of cold trap liquid nitrogen filling devices, in particular to a cold trap liquid nitrogen filling device. Background Art

[0002] Cold traps are frequently used equipment in semiconductor production processes and are widely used in the evaporation process of semiconductor production processes. Liquid nitrogen is usually manually filled into cold traps to improve the performance of the cold pump in the cold trap. Liquid nitrogen is an inert, colorless, odorless, non-corrosive, non-flammable, and extremely low-temperature liquid. If the human body comes into contact with liquid nitrogen without protective measures, the skin will be in danger of severe frostbite, so a liquid nitrogen filling device is required when filling the cold trap with liquid nitrogen.

[0003] The existing device has the following shortcomings when in use: the liquid nitrogen tank lacks a protective structure, which is easy to bump into the liquid nitrogen tank, causing safety risks; there is a lack of protection devices for the pipeline. When it is not used for a long time, the moisture in the pipeline will freeze and block when the liquid nitrogen is refilled, affecting the use of the liquid nitrogen filling device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a cold trap liquid nitrogen filling device to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a cold trap liquid nitrogen filling device, comprising a placement box, a safety mat, a liquid nitrogen tank, a sealing cover, a low-temperature resistant electric heating wire, a low-temperature resistant valve and a delivery pipeline, wherein a safety mat is installed in the placement box, a liquid nitrogen tank is placed in a placement groove provided on the safety mat, a sealing cover is installed on the liquid nitrogen tank, a delivery pipeline is installed on the sealing cover, a low-temperature resistant heating wire is wrapped in the outer wall of the delivery pipeline, an antifreeze sleeve is provided on the outer wall of the delivery pipeline, a delivery head is installed at one end of the delivery pipeline, a placement box is installed on the placement box, a placement cavity is provided on the placement box, a plug is installed in the placement cavity, the plug is matched with the hole head of the delivery head, the liquid nitrogen tank is placed in the placement groove on the safety mat installed in the placement box, and the sealing cover is provided on the sealing cover. The combined placement box and safety pad can protect the outer wall of the liquid nitrogen tank to avoid safety risks caused by bumping into the liquid nitrogen tank. The antifreeze sleeve installed on the outer wall of the delivery pipeline can prevent frostbite caused by the staff's skin contacting the delivery pipeline. After the liquid nitrogen is filled, the low-temperature resistant valve is closed, and then the low-temperature resistant heating wire wrapped in the outer wall of the delivery pipeline is started to heat the delivery pipeline to evaporate the moisture on its inner wall. Then the delivery head is inserted into the placement cavity opened on the placement box, so that the hole head of the delivery head fits with the plug to block the hole of the delivery head to prevent moisture in the air from entering the delivery pipeline when not in use. By protecting the pipeline, the moisture in the pipeline can be prevented from freezing and blocking when liquid nitrogen is infused again when it is not used for a long time, thereby avoiding affecting the use of the liquid nitrogen filling device.

[0006] In a further embodiment, a low-temperature resistant heating wire is provided in the inner wall layer of the liquid nitrogen tank, and a pressure valve is installed on the sealing cover. The low-temperature resistant heating wire heats the liquid nitrogen and gasifies it to increase the pressure in the liquid nitrogen tank. The low-temperature resistant valve is opened, and under the action of pressure, the liquid nitrogen passes through the transport pipeline and the delivery pipeline from the delivery head into the cold trap. When the pressure in the liquid nitrogen tank is too high, the nitrogen can be discharged through the pressure valve, thereby ensuring the safety of the device.

[0007] In a further embodiment, a transport pipeline is installed on the sealing cover, one end of the transport pipeline is connected to the delivery pipeline, and the other end of the transport pipeline is located at the bottom of the liquid nitrogen tank. A low-temperature resistant valve is installed on the transport pipeline. When the low-temperature resistant valve is opened, liquid nitrogen passes through the transport pipeline and the delivery pipeline from the delivery head into the cold trap under the action of pressure, thereby avoiding tilting the liquid nitrogen tank for liquid nitrogen filling operations.

[0008] In a further embodiment, a control panel is installed on the sealing cover, and the control panel is connected to the low-temperature resistant heating wire, the low-temperature resistant valve and the low-temperature resistant heating wire. The control panel controls the opening and closing of the low-temperature resistant heating wire, the opening and closing of the low-temperature resistant heating wire, and the opening and closing of the low-temperature resistant valve.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the delivery head is slidably connected to the placement chamber, and a hand grip ring is installed on the delivery pipe. The sliding connection between the delivery head and the placement chamber facilitates the placement of the delivery head, and the hand grip ring installed on the delivery pipe makes it convenient for the staff to hold the delivery head.

[0010] In a further embodiment, a universal wheel is installed at the bottom of the placement box, a brake structure is provided on the universal wheel, and a handle is installed on the placement box. The universal wheel and handle installed at the bottom of the placement box can facilitate the movement of the liquid nitrogen tank to the cold trap equipment that needs to be added with liquid nitrogen.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] 1. It can protect the outer wall of the liquid nitrogen tank to avoid safety risks caused by bumping into the liquid nitrogen tank.

[0013] 2. By protecting the pipeline, it can prevent the moisture in the pipeline from freezing and clogging when liquid nitrogen is injected again when it is not used for a long time, so as to avoid affecting the use of the liquid nitrogen filling device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
