[0018] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a coating carrier includes multiple flat plates 1 and multiple substrates 2, and the substrates 2 are arranged on the flat plates 1, and are characterized in that: they also include C-shaped beams 3 and cross beams 4, and the adjacent flat plates 1 are connected by cross beams 4, and the two ends of the cross beams 4 are connected to the C-shaped beams 3, and each flat plate 1 is evenly distributed with multiple substrates 2. The coating carrier of the utility model has a simple structure and is easy to use. The arrangement of the C-shaped beams and cross beams not only improves the strength of the structure, but also reduces the distance between the substrates on both sides of the cross beams, thereby improving the utilization rate of the carrier; it solves the problem that when there is a temperature difference between different parts after heating, the flat plate used in the pocket for placing multiple substrates will be deformed; when the square tube is sputtered, the edges are prone to color difference, and the utilization rate of the carrier is low.

[0021] Both sides of each flat plate 1 are mounted on the crossbeam 4. Both sides of the crossbeam 4 are provided with slots 41, and the side parts of the flat plate 1 are inserted into the slots 41. The slots 41 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the crossbeam 4. Above the slots 41 on the crossbeam 4, there are mounting holes 42, and bolts 5 are provided in the mounting holes 42 to match them. The mounting holes 42 are threaded holes, and the mounting holes 42 are connected with the slots 41. The ends of the bolts 5 pass through the mounting holes 42 and extend into the slots 41 to contact and press the flat plate 1. The flat plate of the utility model is connected to the crossbeam in a pressing form, which can be stretched and retracted when heated, and the thermal deformation of the flat plate can be reduced.

[0022] The cross beam 4 is a round tube, the mounting hole 42 is perpendicular to the slot 41, and a shoulder 43 is provided at the upper end of the mounting hole 42 on the cross beam 4. The depth of the plate 1 inserted into the slot 41 is less than the length of the slot 41.

[0023] Blocks 6 are provided at both ends of the cross beam 4, and the block 6 is clamped in the C-shaped bayonet on the C-shaped beam 3. The cross beam 4 can also be connected to the C-shaped beam 3 by fasteners such as screws.

[0024] Specifically, the coating carrier of the utility model is composed of a C-shaped beam, a cross beam and a flat plate. The cross beam is made of a round tube and has grooves on both sides. The flat plate is inserted into the groove of the cross beam and is pressed by screws on the cross beam. When the carrier is heated in the cavity, the flat plate can be stretched in the slot after being heated, and the deformation of the flat plate is small, which is beneficial to the coating of the substrate and the automatic placement of the substrate in the carrier.

[0025] The crossbeam is in the form of a circular tube, which not only improves the strength of the structure, but also has little impact on the substrates on both sides of the crossbeam during coating, and can reduce the distance between the substrates on both sides of the crossbeam, thereby improving the utilization rate of the carrier.

[0026] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely illustrative and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present invention is limited to these examples; under the concept of the present invention, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the present invention as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of simplicity. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
