Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of single crystal furnaces, and in particular relates to a protective device used for returning gas in a single crystal furnace. Background Art
[0002] During the crystal pulling process of the single crystal furnace, the protective gas (argon) enters from the top of the furnace, passes through the surface of the crystal rod to the surface of the melt, passes through the crucible wall and then enters the bottom of the furnace and is pumped out by the vacuum pump. The protective gas (argon) not only acts as a heat transfer medium, but also removes the volatile SiO and other impurities and contaminants in the melt, which is conducive to the smooth realization of dislocation-free growth of single products. During the crystal pulling process of the single crystal furnace, the furnace is in a negative pressure dynamic equilibrium state, but due to vacuum pump failure, pipeline blockage, circuit and other possible problems, it may cause gas return. Impurity gas is reversed into the furnace, which will affect the quality of the crystal rod, cause wire breakage, pollute the raw materials and cause the raw materials to be scrapped, thereby causing economic losses. For this reason, we propose a protective device for gas return in the single crystal furnace. Utility Model Content

[0020] In this embodiment, when the single crystal furnace body 1 is in the process of pulling crystals, the vacuum pump 4 and the furnace tube 2 are provided.
