[0002] The photovoltaic industry is ready to take off. The cost issue of single crystal furnaces is the focus of common concern among people in the photovoltaic industry. The reduction of non-silicon costs is the driving force for the continued effective development of single crystals, reducing the production cost of single crystal silicon wafers and achieving grid parity. The size of single crystal furnaces and large-size thermal fields are changing rapidly. Graphite heating elements are generally set at the bottom of the single crystal furnace, which plays a greater role in the normal operation of the single crystal furnace.

[0003] Patent application publication number: CN202744655U A graphite heater used in preparing single crystal silicon by the direct pulling method achieves the effect of a bottom heater without modifying the single crystal furnace equipment, saving the cost of technical upgrading. Compared with traditional cylindrical graphite heaters of the same size, the graphite heater of the utility model has the characteristics of high thermal energy utilization, saving 4% to 8% of energy, and when pulling single crystals larger than 9 inches, the temperature control is stable, the heat convection of the silicon solution is small, and the crystallization rate is increased by 2% to 4%.

[0004] However, in actual use, thermal shock will occur after the current is passed, which will cause the joint between the heater body and the bottom heating element to be thin and easy to break, thereby shortening the life of the heater body and increasing the cost of use. In addition, the size of the bottom support feet is fixed, and the scope of application is small. Utility Model Content

[0027] Reference Figure 4As shown, a spring 9 is provided inside the connecting hole 7, a first fixing plate 10 is provided on one side of the spring 9, a connecting groove 11 is provided on the surface of the graphite foot plate 1, a threaded rod 12 is provided inside the connecting groove 11, and a second fixing plate 13 is provided on one side of the threaded rod 12. The bolt 5 is rotated clockwise to turn the bolt 5 into the threaded hole 4, thereby fixing the graphite foot plate 1 and the connecting block 2. Then, the connecting column 8 is inserted into the connecting groove 11, and then the threaded rod 12 is driven to rotate by rotating the cap head 15. Then, the threaded rod 12 drives the second fixing plate 13 to move to the left, and then the connecting column 8 is squeezed. The connecting column 8 squeezes the first fixing plate 10, and the first fixing plate 10 squeezes the spring 9 to deform, and the connecting column 8 moves horizontally in the movable groove, thereby improving the application range of the device.

[0028] Reference Figure 2-3 As shown, the surfaces of the first fixing plate 10 and the second fixing plate 13 are both arranged in an arc shape, and a main heater foot plate 14 is arranged at the bottom of the graphite foot plate 1, and a movable groove is opened on the surface of the main heater foot plate 14. Due to the shape design of the connecting hole 7, the spacing of the main heater foot plates 14 will not be affected by the heater body 3 when adjusting, thereby reducing the damage rate of the heater body 3 and the main heater foot plates 14 caused by deformation, extending the service life, and reducing the use cost of graphite parts.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the connecting column 8 is slidably connected to the movable groove, and one end of the threaded rod 12 located outside the connecting hole 7 is fixedly connected with a cap head 15 to facilitate the rotation of the threaded column.

[0030] Working principle of the utility model: when the utility model is used, the surface of the graphite foot plate 1 is first wrapped with a carbon-carbon material layer, so as to improve the strength of the graphite foot plate 1 itself, and the wrapped graphite foot plate 1 can reduce the deformation of the foot plate, and also enhance the load-bearing capacity of the foot plate, and is not easy to break. When installing, first align the installation groove 6 with the bottom of the connecting block 2, then align the bolt 5 with the threaded hole 4, and then rotate the bolt 5 clockwise to turn the bolt 5 into the threaded hole 4, so as to fix the graphite foot plate 1 and the connecting block 2, and then insert the connecting column 8 into the connecting groove 11, and then drive the threaded rod 12 to rotate by rotating the cap head 15, and then the threaded rod 12 drives the second fixing plate 13 to move to the left, and then squeeze the connecting column 8, the connecting column 8 squeezes the first fixing plate 10, and the first fixing plate 10 squeezes the spring 9 to deform, and the connecting column 8 will move horizontally in the movable groove, thereby improving the application range of the device;

[0031] When the heater body 3 changes due to heat, it will drive the main heater foot 14 to move, and the distance between the main heater foot 14 will change with the heat. When the distance between the main heater foot 14 is adjusted, due to the shape design of the connecting hole 7, the distance between the main heater foot 14 will not be affected by the heater body 3 when adjusting, thereby reducing the damage rate of the heater body 3 and the main heater foot 14 due to deformation, extending the service life, and reducing the use cost of graphite parts. At the same time, when the main heater foot 14 is deformed, it will drive the first fixed plate 10 to move horizontally. At this time, because the first fixed plate 10 receives the return force, it drives the driving spring 9 to move, and the first fixed plate 10 and the second fixed plate 13 will always be in contact with the connecting column 8, avoiding the main heater foot 14 and the graphite foot 1 from shaking, thereby greatly improving the stability of the device.

[0032] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
