[0002] The multi-branch round silicon core vertical pulling furnace is a device used to produce single crystal silicon, which is widely used in the semiconductor and solar energy industries. The thermal field design of the multi-branch round silicon core vertical pulling furnace is crucial to the quality and efficiency of crystal growth; it directly affects the uniformity, defect density and growth rate of crystal growth; a good thermal field design can reduce stress and impurities in the crystal and improve the electrical properties of the crystal.

[0003] During the silicon core drawing process, when adding materials for the second time, the insulation plate in the middle of the furnace needs to be taken away to add materials, and then put back after adding materials. The insulation plate plays a role in blocking the heat transfer upward and maintaining the required temperature of the thermal field. However, in the prior art, it is inconvenient to take the insulation plate, the taking efficiency is low, and it is easy to affect the growth quality of the crystal. Utility Model Content

[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: in the utility model, the heat insulation disk is placed on the graphite partition guide ring when the silicon core is drawn, which plays the role of thermal insulation and maintaining uniform temperature; the grabbing mechanism is mainly composed of 3 hooks fixed on the connecting arm of the lower suspension rod by pins. Under normal circumstances, the hook is in a closed state due to the effect of gravity. When working, the bottom of the hook moves downward along the conical surface of the suspension disk head and automatically opens. The bottom of the suspension disk head is umbrella-shaped and a groove is provided on the inner wall of the bottom. When it reaches a certain position, the hook automatically shrinks and buckles the groove on the inner wall of the suspension disk head and then lifts it upward, removing the middle heat insulation disk for secondary feeding. After the feeding is completed, the hook buckles the suspension disk head and pulls out the long pin, presses the counterweight block onto the hook, and slowly puts it down on the graphite plate guide ring.
