Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of measurement, in particular to a device for quickly determining the zero position of a seed crystal in a single crystal furnace. Background Art

[0002] In single crystal furnace crystal pulling, the position relationship between the liquid level and the guide tube directly determines the height of the liquid level. When seeding, observe the position of the upper axis, and set it as the seed crystal zero point when the seed crystal contacts the liquid surface. As the seed crystal is consumed, when the length of the seed crystal becomes shorter and then drops to zero, the lower end surface of the seed crystal cannot contact the liquid surface, and the seeding function cannot be achieved. At this time, the seed crystal needs to be lowered again to contact the liquid surface. This operation cannot ensure the safe length reserved for the seed crystal, and after long-term operation, the seed crystal will be consumed, resulting in a shortened seed crystal service life. In addition, this operation will increase the operation time and affect the efficiency of crystal pulling. Therefore, regular seed crystal zero position calibration becomes part of the process operation.

[0003] Under the existing conditions, the zero position of the seed crystal can be determined by measuring the distance between the weight and the lower flange of the auxiliary furnace chamber. By achieving the unification of this size, the zero position of the seed crystal can remain unchanged. At present, two people are used to measure the relative position relationship between the weight and the lower flange of the auxiliary furnace chamber, and then the zero position of the seed crystal is deduced. When two people work together to measure the relative position between the weight and the lower flange of the auxiliary furnace chamber. One person uses a steel ruler (ruler) to lean against the bottom of the lower flange, and the other person uses a tape measure to measure the position of the steel ruler (ruler) from the weight, and raises and lowers the upper shaft so that the distance between the two reaches the predetermined distance. At this time, observe whether the position of the upper shaft of the industrial computer is zero. If there is a deviation, enter the setting page to set this displayed value to zero, so that the calibration of the seed crystal zero position is achieved.

[0004] The above method has the following disadvantages: 1. It requires two people to cooperate in the operation, which is inefficient and occupies human resources; 2. When measuring with a tape measure, the operator needs to read the measured value, which has the risk of reading incorrectly, thereby affecting the zero position calibration work; 3. When the upper and lower parts work together to lock the seed crystal limit, there is a safety hazard of falling objects from high altitude. Utility Model Content

[0045] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a device for quickly determining the zero position of a seed crystal in a single crystal furnace, comprising: a connecting member 1, a connecting seat 2, a connecting rod assembly 3, a positioning screw 4, a mounting seat 5 and a distance meter 6. The connecting member 1 is provided with a connecting opening 11 connected to a weight. The connecting seat 2 is arranged on the outer wall of the connecting member 1. One end of the connecting rod assembly 3 is hinged to the connecting seat 2. The positioning screw 4 is installed at the other end of the connecting rod assembly 3. The mounting seat 5 is rotatably installed on the connecting rod assembly 3, and the mounting seat 5 is provided with a sliding groove 51 that matches the positioning screw 4. The distance meter 6 is installed on the mounting seat 5.

[0047] When in use, the connector passes through the tungsten wire rope through the connecting opening 11, so that the connector 1 is clamped with the weight. The connection opening 11 is provided, on the one hand, to facilitate the passing of the tungsten wire rope, and on the other hand, to adapt to weights of different dimensions and improve the versatility of the determination device. When measuring, the connecting rod assembly 3 rotates around its hinge with the mounting seat 5, so that the connecting rod assembly 3 is in a horizontal position. At this time, the opening of the rangefinder 6 is opened to measure the distance between the rangefinder 6 and the lower flange of the auxiliary chamber. After lifting the upper shaft of the industrial computer so that the displayed value on the rangefinder 6 reaches the preset value, observe whether the position of the upper shaft of the industrial computer is zero. If it is, it shows the calibration of the seed crystal zero position. If there is a deviation, enter the setting page of the industrial computer and set the secondary display value to zero.

[0048] In order to adapt to the lower flange of the auxiliary chamber with different diameters, a sliding groove 51 is provided on the mounting seat 5, and a positioning screw 4 is provided on the connecting rod assembly 3. When the mounting seat 5 rotates, the positioning screw 4 is in the sliding groove 51, so that the position of the rangefinder 6 changes, so that the rangefinder 6 is located below the lower flange of the auxiliary chamber.

[0049] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in order to facilitate the processing of the connection opening 11, the connection member 1 adopts a cylindrical structure part, and the connection opening 11 is opened along the axial direction of the connection member 1 with the cylindrical structure.

[0050] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to facilitate the positioning of the connecting rod assembly 3, a locking assembly 7 is provided at the connection between the connecting seat 2 and the connecting rod assembly 3. The locking assembly 7 can be a screw and a nut, and the angle between the connecting seat 2 and the connecting rod assembly 3 is fixed by the cooperation of the screw and the nut. The locking assembly 7 can also be a pin. When the pin is selected, the connecting seat 2, the connecting rod assembly 3 and the pin have a certain friction force after being connected, so as to avoid the angle deviation of the connecting rod assembly 3 after the angle is rotated.

[0051] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rod assembly 3 includes: an articulated seat 31, a rod body 32 and a mounting plate 33.

The other end of the rod body 32 is fixedly provided with a mounting plate 33, and the positioning screw 4 is installed on the top of the mounting plate 33. The mounting seat 5 is hinged at the top of the mounting plate 33, and the positioning screw 4 is located in the sliding groove 51 of the mounting seat 5 after installation.

[0053] When the rod body 32 is in a horizontal position, the position of the rangefinder 6 on the horizontal plane needs to be adjusted, and the mounting base 5 can be rotated to rotate it. During the rotation process, the positioning screw 4 further limits the mounting base 5 to improve the stability during the rotation process.

[0054] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting seat 5 includes: a rotating plate 52 and a mounting plate 53. The rotating plate 52 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 33, and the sliding groove 51 is arranged on the rotating plate 52. The mounting plate 53 is arranged on one side of the rotating plate 52, and the rangefinder 6 is mounted on the mounting plate 53. When the rotating plate 52 is installed, the rotating plate 52 drives the mounting plate 53 to rotate, and drives the rangefinder 6 to adjust the angle position during the rotation process.

[0055] When in use, the rotating plate 52 rotates around the hinge between the rotating plate 52 and the mounting plate 33. During the rotation process, the sliding groove 51 provided on the rotating plate 52 cooperates with the positioning screw 4 to improve the stability during the rotation process. The mounting plate 53 is installed at the other end of the rotating plate 52 to facilitate the detection of the rangefinder 6.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model.
