Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of low-temperature and strong magnetic field scientific experimental devices, and in particular to a multi-stage welded bellows shock absorbing device. Background Art

[0002] Since liquid helium is a non-renewable resource, expensive, and dependent on imports, liquid helium-free refrigerators are currently the main means of achieving liquid helium temperatures. Liquid helium-free refrigerators are simply divided into GM refrigerators and PT refrigerators. GM refrigerators are cheap, but have large vibrations, usually reaching more than 1-2μm. PT refrigerators have small vibrations, but are expensive, usually about 3-4 times that of GM refrigerators. Therefore, most scientific researchers will choose GM refrigerators, but for some experiments that are sensitive to vibration, GM refrigerators cannot meet the use requirements, such as CQDAFM, AFM, SPM, STM, etc.

[0003] There are two general solutions to the problem of large vibration of GM refrigerators: one is to fix the GM refrigerator on the ground, connect it to the main cavity through a metal bellows, and add helium as a cooling medium. However, this method has low cooling efficiency and the lowest temperature difference. The other is to add a rubber bellows at the connection between the GM refrigerator and the cavity. Pure helium passes through the inside of the bellows, but as the temperature drops, the internal helium will be liquefied into liquid helium. At the same time, due to the pressure difference, the rubber bellows will stick to the GM refrigerator, affecting the shock absorption effect. In addition, the life of the rubber bellows is relatively short, and replacement is relatively troublesome.

[0004] Since PT refrigerators are currently completely dependent on imports from Japan and the United States, the purchase price and after-sales service are relatively expensive. Solving the vibration reduction problem of GM refrigerators is of great significance. It can not only support the growth of domestic GM refrigerator manufacturers, but also solve the problem that scientific researchers cannot afford equipment. Utility Model Content

[0024] The utility model adopts a multi-stage metal bellows vibration reduction design, and uses a metal bellows as a transition between the refrigerator and the main cavity of the low-temperature thermostat, so that when the GM refrigerator 12 is working, the upper and lower metal bellows are in a balanced state, reducing the influence of the vibration of the GM refrigerator 12 on the main cavity of the low-temperature thermostat when it is working.

The rubber spring group 2 is usually a composite structure composed of rubber material and metal springs, and is used for shock absorption and stress buffering. It is designed to effectively absorb and disperse energy through the softness and elasticity of rubber when subjected to vibration or impact, thereby protecting other components of the system from damage or excessive pressure.

This design helps to absorb and balance vibration and pressure in the system.

[0026] Through the combination of rubber spring group 2, the metal bellows is in a normal elastic variation range close to the natural state, thereby absorbing the energy generated by absolute vibration. The vibration of the refrigerator, the upper and lower metal bellows and the main cavity of the low-temperature thermostat is gradually reduced. This design basically eliminates the influence of the vibration of the refrigerator on the main cavity of the low-temperature thermostat when it is working, and the vibration level is reduced to the level of hundreds of nanometers, which broadens the application range of the device in the field of low temperature and low vibration, and significantly improves the product cost performance.

These support legs are used to support part of the system while helping to reduce the transmission of vibration to other parts of the system. These components work together on the system, and through fixing and supporting, they help to maintain the stability of the system and reduce vibration. This design takes into account the importance of vibration control during operation, especially during the operation of vacuum systems and GM refrigerators 12 and other equipment.

[0028] The lower surface of the upper vacuum blind plate 7 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8 by means of hexagon socket bolts, and the lower surface of the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower vacuum cover plate 11 by means of screws.

The lower surface of the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower vacuum cover plate 11 by means of screws. This connection method ensures a tight connection between the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8 and the lower vacuum cover plate 11 by means of screws, which helps to transmit the shock-absorbing effect and maintain the structural integrity of the system.

[0029] The upper metal bellows pressure-balancing part also includes a total support rod 10 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lower vacuum cover plate 11, the lower surface of the total support rod 10 is fixedly connected to the vacuum chamber upper cover plate 14, the upper surface of the upper vacuum blind plate 7 is fixedly connected to the vacuum hose interface A6 by argon arc welding, the upper metal bellows pressure-balancing part also includes a vacuum hose interface B19, a vacuum hose 5 and a vacuum chamber 15, the vacuum hose interface A6 and the vacuum hose interface B19 are connected to the vacuum chamber 15 through the vacuum hose 5, the total support rod 10 is an important structural component for supporting the entire system, the vacuum chamber upper cover plate 14 is used to seal and protect the vacuum chamber 15, the vacuum hose interface A6 and the vacuum hose interface B19 are used to transmit vacuum inside the system and ensure the tight connection and vacuum sealing between the various components.

The GM refrigerator 12 is fixed to the upper surface of the lower shock-absorbing metal bellows 13 by screws. This method ensures a firm connection between the GM refrigerator 12 and the lower shock-absorbing metal bellows 13, and ensures the mechanical support required for the correct installation and operation of the cooling system. The soft connection 16 refers to a flexible pipe or hose, which is used to transfer the refrigerant medium or other necessary connection functions between the refrigerator and the part to be refrigerated 17. This method is usually used to provide flexible and reliable connections in complex refrigeration systems.

After the refrigerator is turned on, the vibration will be consumed and reduced step by step, ensuring a significant vibration reduction effect.

[0033] Working principle: In a specific embodiment of the utility model, when the device is working, first the vacuum chamber outlet 18 is connected to the external vacuum pump group to evacuate the vacuum chamber 15, the lower shock-absorbing metal bellows 13, and the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8.

[0034] After the vacuum reaches the specified value, the vacuum pump group is turned off. The size and material of the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 8 and the lower shock-absorbing metal bellows 13 are exactly the same. At this time, the vacuum pressures of the upper shock-absorbing metal bellows 88 and the lower shock-absorbing metal bellows 1314 are the same and cancel each other out.

[0035] However, the weight of the GM refrigerator 12 cannot be balanced and there will still be vibration. At this time, the weight of the GM refrigerator 12 is balanced by adjusting the number and specifications of the rubber spring group 2, and then the GM refrigerator 12 is turned on. It will be found that the vibration is significantly smaller, and almost no vibration can be felt at the upper cover plate 14 of the vacuum chamber. Through professional vibration measuring instruments, it is found that the vibration level of the vacuum main chamber is reduced to hundreds of nanometers.
