[0038] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a clamping member for a silicon core seed crystal, including: a connecting rope 1, a connecting head 2, a connecting component 3, and an inner clamp 4. The connecting rope 1 is used to connect with a lifting head 5 at the top of a silicon core furnace. The connecting head 2 is connected to the connecting rope 1. An installation through hole 31 is provided on the connecting component 3, and the connecting head 2 is connected into the installation through hole 31, and the length of the connecting component 3 is adjustable. The inner clamp 4 is installed at one end of the installation through hole 31 away from the connecting head 2, and a seed crystal installation hole 41 is provided in the middle of the inner clamp 4. After one end of the seed crystal is connected to the inner clamp 4, it extends out of the connecting component 3 through the installation hole.

[0040] When performing seed crystal stretching, first connect the connecting rope 1 with the lifting head 5 at the top of the silicon core furnace, and stretch the seed crystal under the action of the lifting head 5. When preparing for stretching, first fix the seed crystal in the seed crystal installation hole 41 of the inner clamp 4, and then install the inner clamp 4 in the connecting component 3. Connect the connecting component 3 with the connecting head 2 and adjust the length of the connecting component 3. Then start the lifting head 5 to realize the drawing of the seed crystal.

[0041] In one embodiment, the connecting rope 1 is a tungsten wire rope or a steel wire rope. When the connecting rope 1 is a tungsten wire rope, it is because the tungsten wire rope has better strength and can improve the service life of the connecting rope 1 during the drawing and rotation process.

[0042] When the connecting rope 1 is a steel wire rope, it is because the steel wire rope has the advantages of high strength, light self-weight, stable operation, not easily breaking suddenly as a whole, and reliable work.

[0043] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the connecting component 3, the connecting head 2 and the connecting component 3 are connected by threads.

[0044] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the connecting component 3 includes: a connecting piece 32 and a locking piece 34. The top of the connecting piece 32 has a threaded hole 33 connected to the connecting head 2, and an external thread is provided on the outer side wall of the connecting piece 32. The mounting through hole 31 is provided in the locking piece 34. The mounting through hole 31 is provided in the locking piece 34. The mounting through hole 31 has a connecting portion 35 connected to the connecting piece 32 and a fixing portion 36 for mounting the inner clamp 4. When the locking piece 34 rotates forward and backward, its relative position with the connecting piece 32 can be adjusted.

[0045] During use, the connecting head 2 and the connecting piece 32 are connected by threads. Then, the inner clamp 4 with the seed crystal installed is installed in the mounting through hole 31, and then the locking piece 34 is connected to the outer side wall of the connecting piece 32 by threads. During the connection process, the length of the locking piece 34 screwed into the connecting piece 32 is adjusted according to the usage requirements, so that the length of the connecting component 3 is adjustable.

[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the orthographic projection of the fixing portion 36 is in an isosceles trapezoid structure. The outer side wall of the inner clamp 4 matches the structure of the fixing portion 36. The mounting hole is a stepped hole.

[0047] During use, in order to facilitate the installation of the seed crystal, the inner clamp 4 has a stepped hole, and one end of the seed crystal is stuck at the step of the stepped hole. Then, the inner clamp 4 is installed in the fixing portion 36 of the mounting through hole 31. The fixing portion 36 is in an isosceles trapezoid structure, and the base of the isosceles trapezoid structure is close to the connecting portion 35. One end of the inner clamp 4 has a tapered surface matching the structure of the fixing portion 36. Therefore, during installation, the inner clamp 4 contacts the inclined surface of the fixing portion 36, so that the inner clamp 4 is installed in the mounting through hole 31.

[0048] Steps for pulling the seed crystal:

[0049] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a tungsten wire rope is connected through the lifting head 5 at the top of the silicon core furnace, and a connecting head 2 is provided at the lower end of the tungsten wire rope. The connecting head 2 is threadedly connected to the connecting piece 32, the seed crystal is fixed in the inner clamp 4, then the inner clamp 4 is installed in the fixing portion 36 of the locking piece 34, and finally the locking piece 34 is connected to the connecting piece 32, and the position after the connection between the connecting piece 32 and the locking piece 34 is adjusted. Under the action of the lifting head 5, the seed crystal is inserted into the liquid surface of the silicon core furnace, and a crystallization interface is formed by using the temperature gradient change. The seed crystal is drawn into a silicon core round rod during the upward lifting process.

[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
