Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of thermal field of single crystal furnace, and particularly relates to a cost-reducing and consumption-reducing solid felt used for thermal field of single crystal silicon. Background Art
[0002] A single crystal furnace is a device that uses a graphite heater to melt polycrystalline materials such as polysilicon in an inert gas (mainly nitrogen and helium) environment and grows single crystals using the Czochralski method. It is the most basic equipment in the solar photovoltaic industry. There is a thermal field inside the single crystal furnace. The performance of the thermal field has a great influence on the quality of the output single crystal silicon, especially the thermal insulation of the thermal field. In the prior art, a carbon-carbon thermal insulation cylinder is generally arranged outside the thermal field, and then soft felt is wrapped around the outside of the carbon-carbon thermal insulation cylinder to achieve the effect of thermal insulation of the thermal field. However, the soft felt pulverizes very quickly and must be replaced frequently during use. Moreover, the method of wrapping the soft felt in the carbon-carbon insulation tube is cumbersome. Each replacement of the soft felt requires a lot of time for disassembly and assembly, which not only wastes time but also increases costs. There is also a small part of carbon fiber integral solid felt placed in the upper and lower parts of the thermal field. Compared with soft felt, carbon fiber solid felt is not easy to corrode, but carbon fiber solid felt can only be placed in the upper and lower parts of the thermal field, and cannot wrap the entire thermal field, nor can it fill the gaps in the thermal field. At the same cost as soft felt, the thermal insulation effect is almost the same, and frequent replacement of detachable protective tubes is costly. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the utility model provides a cost-reducing and consumption-reducing solid felt for a single crystal silicon thermal field, comprising: a single crystal furnace body 1000 and a solid felt 2000, wherein the single crystal furnace body 1000 comprises a middle furnace barrel 1110, a furnace cover 1200 is arranged above the middle furnace barrel 1110, a furnace bottom 1300 is arranged below the middle furnace barrel 1110, a water-cooled heat shield portion 1400 and a quartz crucible assembly 1500 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom inside the middle furnace barrel 1110, a plurality of cavities 2400 are arranged in the solid felt 2000, and a single cavity 2400 is annularly connected, the solid felt 2000 comprises a first solid felt 2100, a second solid felt 2200 and a third solid felt 2300, the first solid felt 2100 can pass through the water-cooled heat shield portion 1400 and is sleeved on the periphery of the water-cooled heat shield portion 1400, the second solid felt 2200 is located at the bottom of the first solid felt 2100 and the second solid felt 2200 is sleeved It is arranged on the periphery of the quartz crucible assembly 1500, the third solid felt 2300 is located at the bottom of the second solid felt 2200 and the third solid felt 2300 is sleeved on the periphery of the quartz crucible assembly 1500, the combination of the carbon-carbon insulation tube and the soft felt in the prior art is adjusted to the filling method of the solid felt 2000, and the solid felt 2000 is directly sleeved on the periphery of the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 to solve the problem of frequent and high cost of replacing the soft felt; an annular cavity 2400 is provided inside the solid felt 2000, and the heat conduction efficiency of the entire solid felt 2000 can be reduced through the cavity 2400, thereby reducing heat transfer and improving the insulation capacity, thereby reducing power consumption. In addition, the solid felt 2000 of the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 is movably connected with the solid felt 2000 of the quartz crucible assembly 1500, which is not only convenient to disassemble but also omits the felt wrapping process, thereby improving the installation efficiency.
[0020] Furthermore, the solid felt 2000 is used for heat preservation of the thermal field to reduce the power consumption of the thermal field. The thermal field of the single crystal furnace is composed of thermal field components and thermal insulation materials, and about 50% of the heater power is sufficient to maintain its crystal growth conditions, and the rest of the energy is consumed in the environment. By changing the thermal field structure and adjusting the performance of the thermal insulation material, the temperature gradient of the thermal field can be made reasonable, and the heat loss can be reduced, thereby effectively reducing the power during crystal pulling. Of course, the utility model does not limit the specific material of the solid felt 2000. Preferably, the solid felt 2000 is made of asphalt-based solidified felt. Figure 1 When the solid felt 2000 is used to insulate the heat field, an annular cylindrical cavity 2400 is dug out inside the solid felt 2000, that is, a single cavity 2400 is annularly connected. Of course, the utility model does not limit the specific shape of the cross section of the cavity 2400. Preferably, the cross section of the cavity 2400 is circular. Under the same cross-sectional diameter size, the circular cavity 2400 has the largest heat conduction area, so the circular cavity 2400 has the best heat conduction effect. Of course, the cross section of the cavity 2400 can be elliptical or other structural shapes. Further, referring to Figure 3 The cavities 2400 are distributed in an array so that the cavities 2400 are evenly distributed inside the solid felt 2000. The evenly distributed cavities 2400 can make the thermal insulation more balanced, so that the heat of the outer wall of the water-cooled heat shield 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 remains uniform. It is also easy to process the cavities 2400 and make the solid felt 2000, saving a lot of production time. Furthermore, the interior of the cavities 2400 is vacuumed. The cavities 2400 are vacuumed. In the cavities 2400, since there is no gas, the gas molecules will not conduct heat transfer in the form of convection and conduction. At the same time, since there are no molecules, the cavities 2400 cannot transfer heat by thermal radiation. Therefore, the thermal conductivity of the entire solid felt 2000 is enhanced, and the effect of heat transfer can be slowed down, thereby keeping the heat field warm and further reducing the power consumption of the heat field.
[0021] Furthermore, in order to properly install and connect with the thermal field components, refer to Figure 2 The upper and lower end surfaces of the solid felt 2000 are provided with matching grooves 2600, and the matching grooves 2600 are used to match and install with the equipment inside the single crystal furnace body 1000. Furthermore, the center of the solid felt 2000 is provided with a fixing groove 2500, and the fixing groove 2500 is used to sleeve the thermal field components, for example, sleeved on the periphery of the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500. Of course, the utility model is not limited to specific thermal field components. Preferably, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The thermal field component includes a water-cooled heat shield portion 1400 and a quartz crucible assembly 1500. The solid felt 2000 is fixed to the periphery of the water-cooled heat shield portion 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 through a fixing groove 2500. The matching groove 2600 is clamped with the end faces of the water-cooled heat shield portion 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 so that the solid felt 2000 can be stably sleeved on the periphery of the thermal field component. Of course, the utility model does not limit the specific structure of the fixing groove 2500 and the matching groove 2600. Preferably, the fixing groove 2500 and the matching groove 2600 are based on the specific size of the actual thermal field component. The fixing groove 2500 and the matching groove 2600 are used to be matched and installed on the periphery of the thermal field component.
[0022] Furthermore, the present invention does not limit the specific structure and specific connection method of the thermal field components inside the single crystal furnace. Figure 1A furnace cover 1200 is arranged above the water-cooled heat shield 1410, the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 are placed inside the furnace barrel 1100, the furnace barrel 1100 includes a middle furnace barrel 1110 and a lower furnace barrel 1120, the middle furnace barrel 1110 and the lower furnace barrel 1120 are movably connected, the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 includes a water-cooled heat shield 1410 and an outer guide tube 1420 arranged on the periphery of the water-cooled heat shield 1410, the first fixed felt 2100 is sleeved on the periphery of the outer guide tube 1420, and the quartz crucible assembly 1500 is connected to the bottom of the water-cooled heat shield part 1400 The quartz crucible assembly 1500 includes a quartz crucible 1510, a crucible side 1520 on the outer wall of the quartz crucible 1510, and a crucible support 1530 at the bottom of the quartz crucible 1510. A support rod 1540 is further provided below the crucible support 1530. Air guide tubes 1600 are provided on both sides of the support rod 1540. The second solid felt 2200 is located above the third solid felt 2300. The second solid felt 2200 and the third solid felt 2300 are sleeved on the periphery of the quartz crucible assembly 1500. The cavities 2400 on the first solid felt 2100, the second solid felt 2200 and the third solid felt 2300 are not connected to each other. That is, the cavities 2400 on the first solid felt 2100, the second solid felt 2200 and the third solid felt 2300 are all independent. When the solid felt 2000 needs to be replaced, the second solid felt 2200 and the third solid felt 2300 can be taken out by simply disassembling the middle furnace drum 1110 and the lower furnace drum 1120, and the first solid felt 2100 can be taken out by disassembling the furnace cover 1200. In the process of installing and disassembling the solid felt 2000, it is not necessary to disassemble other thermal field components, which solves the problem of cumbersome soft felt wrapping in the prior art. Furthermore, the lower part of the quartz crucible assembly 1500 is provided with an air guide Cylinder 1600, the outer periphery of the air guide cylinder 1600 is provided with a support member 1610, and the support member 1610 is made of asphalt-based cured felt with a solid 2400 structure. Since the air guide cylinder 1600 does not require high thermal insulation performance, a solid 2400 asphalt-based cured felt is used. The solid 2400 asphalt-based cured felt also has certain thermal insulation performance, but its thermal conductivity is not as good as the asphalt-based cured felt with a cavity 2400 structure. It is suitable for structures that do not require high thermal insulation performance, which not only plays a supporting role but also a thermal insulation role.
