Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of chemical vapor deposition furnaces, and in particular relates to a CVD tooling suitable for annular products. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of materials science and industrial technology, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technology has become one of the key technologies in the field of surface modification. Through chemical reactions between gas phases, CVD technology can give specific properties to the surface of materials, such as wear resistance, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance, without changing the composition and strength of the base material. At present, materials prepared by chemical vapor deposition technology, such as pyrolytic carbon coating (PyC), silicon carbide coating (SiC), tantalum carbide coating (TaC), boron nitride coating (BN), etc., are not only used in tool materials, wear-resistant, heat-resistant, and corrosion-resistant materials, special composite materials in the aerospace industry, atomic reactor materials, and biomedical materials, but are also widely used in the preparation and synthesis of various powder materials, bulk materials, new crystal materials, ceramic fibers, and diamond films. It is even more indispensable in the thin film preparation technology of ferroelectric materials, insulating materials, magnetic materials, and optoelectronic materials as large-scale integrated circuit technology.

[0003] The chemical vapor deposition furnace is one of the important equipment for realizing the chemical vapor deposition process. It is mainly composed of the electronic control system, air intake system, exhaust system, lifting system, vacuum system, furnace shell, insulation layer, heater, muffle tube, product tooling and other parts. Among them, the product tooling is an important component that carries the product to deposit the CVD coating. Its design directly affects the contact area between the product and the atmosphere and the deposition efficiency.

[0004] However, in the current application of CVD technology, the design of product tooling has obvious limitations. Since different products have different shapes and sizes, most manufacturers need to design tooling for each product separately when performing product deposition operations. The advantage of this method is that it can achieve the best deposition effect for a specific product, but the disadvantages are also very obvious: every time a different deposition product needs to be replaced in the deposition furnace, the tooling needs to be redesigned, which not only increases the design cost, but also takes a long time for each tooling design and processing stage, resulting in low production efficiency and serious waste of resources. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a CVD tooling suitable for annular products to adapt to the use of different annular products during chemical vapor deposition, thereby improving the production efficiency of the replaced products and reducing the waste of tooling.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1-Figure 6 , clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, a CVD tooling suitable for annular products includes two groups of columns 2 and at least one crossbar 8 connecting the two groups of columns 2. The annular product 15 is mounted on the crossbar 8. The columns 2 are arranged on the gas outlet holes of the gas diffuser plate 1 of the deposition furnace. Figure 2 As shown, the lower part of the column 2 is threadedly connected with a screw sleeve 4, and the screw sleeve 4 is located at the lower part of the heat sink of the deposition furnace. The column 2 is installed at any air outlet of the heat sink of the deposition furnace using the screw sleeve 4, thereby realizing the adjustment of the CVD tooling width and enhancing the adaptability of the CVD tooling.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, the column 2 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 3, and both ends of the cross bar 8 are inserted into the first through holes 3, so that the height of the cross bar 8 can be adjusted according to the shape and size of the annular product, further enhancing the adaptability of the CVD tooling.

[0036] like Figure 2As shown, the column 2, cross bar 8 and screw sleeve 4 are all hollow structures, and the cross bar 8 is provided with a plurality of second through holes (not shown in the figure). The second through holes at both ends of the cross bar 8 are connected with the column 2, and the airflow in the deposition furnace is blown horizontally from the first through hole 3 of the column 2 to the annular product. In addition, in addition to the airflow blowing upward from the bottom of the deposition furnace diffuser plate 1 to the annular product, part of the airflow flows from the column 2 to the cross bar 8, and is blown longitudinally (in both up and down directions) to the annular product again from the second through holes on the cross bar 8, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of the deposition of the annular product.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of sealing plates 5 are provided on the outer side of the column 2, and a first plunger 6 is provided on the sealing plate 5. The first plunger 6 is inserted into the outer side of the first through hole 3 to prevent the airflow from flowing out from the outer side of the column 2. A first end cover 7 is provided at the upper end of the column 2 to prevent the airflow from flowing out from the top of the column 2. Second end covers 9 are provided at both ends of the cross bar 8 to prevent the airflow from flowing out from both ends of the cross bar 8, thereby improving the utilization rate of the airflow in the furnace.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, a slot 10 is provided on the upper portion of the second through hole of the cross bar 8. When the annular product 15 is directly mounted on the cross bar 8, the annular product 15 is placed in the slot 10, thereby limiting the movement of the annular product.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a hook 11, the upper end of which is installed in the second through hole, and the diameter of the hook 11 is smaller than the diameter of the second through hole, so that the airflow in the cross bar 8 can flow out from the second through hole to ensure the quality and efficiency of the vapor deposition. The upper end of the hook 11 is threadedly connected with a nut 13, and the annular product 15 is mounted on the hook 11 to adapt to the deposition operation of small-aperture annular products.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, a gasket 12 is provided at the lower part of the nut 13, and the gasket 12 is installed inside the slot 10. The gasket 12 blocks the upper part of the second through hole, so that the airflow can only flow from the lower part of the second through hole to the annular product, but cannot flow out from the upper part of the second through hole, thereby ensuring the utilization rate of the airflow in the furnace.

[0041] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the cross bar 8 is provided with a plurality of clamps 14, the inner wall of the upper clamp body of the clamp 14 is connected with a clamping block 141, the clamping block 141 is clamped in the clamping groove 10, the inner wall of the lower clamp body of the clamp 14 is connected with a second plunger 142, the second plunger 142 is inserted into the lower part of the second through hole, the clamp 14 blocks the unused second through hole, reduces the loss of airflow, and further improves the utilization rate of airflow.

[0042] like Figure 1As shown, the column 2 is a straight rod structure, and the columns 2 on both sides are connected by a cross bar 8. The large-diameter annular product is directly mounted on the cross bar 8, and the small-diameter annular product is mounted on the cross bar 8 through a hook 11.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] The difference from Example 1 is that Figure 4 As shown, the column 2 is a straight rod structure, and the columns 2 on both sides are connected by two cross bars 8. The small-aperture annular product is mounted on the cross bar 8 through the hook 11. The small-aperture annular product can also be mounted on the lower cross bar 8 through the hook 11, and the large-aperture annular product can be directly mounted on the upper cross bar 8, thereby increasing the capacity of the CVD tooling.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] The difference from Example 1 is that Figure 5 As shown, the column 2 is a Y-shaped rod, and a plurality of first through holes 3 are provided on the main rod and the support rod of the column 2. A cross bar 8 is installed on the main rod and the support rod of the column 2. The column 2 with a Y-shaped rod structure not only increases the number of annular products mounted by the tooling, but also avoids the lower annular products blocking the airflow from the deposition furnace diffuser plate 1, thereby ensuring the deposition effect of the annular products on the upper part of the column 2.

[0047] The above contents are merely examples and explanations of the structure of the utility model. The technicians in this technical field may make various modifications or additions to the specific embodiments described or replace them in a similar manner. As long as they do not deviate from the structure of the utility model or exceed the scope defined in the claims, they should all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
