Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of X-ray diffractometers, and specifically relates to a novel Soller slit for an X-ray diffractometer. Background Art

[0002] X-ray diffraction utilizes the diffraction principle to accurately determine the crystal structure, texture and stress of substances, and accurately conduct phase analysis, qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. It is widely used in the fields of metallurgy, petroleum, chemical industry, scientific research, aerospace, teaching, material production, etc.

[0003] During the use of an X-ray diffractometer, it is necessary to perform specific optimization on the light beam emitted by the X-ray tube, especially to limit the divergence of the light beam along the focal spot direction to improve the resolution of the obtained X-ray diffraction spectrum. The device or part for achieving this purpose is called a Soller slit. Its basic principle is to place a group of metal foils perpendicular to the focal spot and parallel to each other in the light beam. Thus, the direction of the light is roughly parallel to the metal foils, and its divergence is determined by the length of the metal foils and the distance between them. Usually, a pair of Soller slits are used in a diffractometer and are respectively placed at the outlet of the light source and in front of the detector, so they are very important components in the diffractometer.

[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0027] Embodiment:

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-7, this embodiment provides a novel Soller slit for an X-ray diffractometer, which includes a first thick metal plate 1, a second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3, multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4, and tension bolts 5. The multiple groups of metal foils 3 are arranged at equal intervals between the first thick metal plate 1 and the second thick metal plate 2. A group of Soller slit gaskets 4 is arranged between two adjacent metal foils 3. A group of Soller slit gaskets 4 has two gaskets respectively placed at the upper and lower ends of the metal foil 3. The first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, the multiple groups of metal foils 3, and the multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4 are connected and fixed by the tension bolts 5. In this embodiment, the thickness of the first thick metal plate 1 and the second thick metal plate 2 is about 2 mm, the thickness of the metal foil 3 is about 0.05 mm, and the thickness of the Soller slit gasket 4 is 0.2 - 1 mm. The thickness of the Soller slit gasket 4 can be defined according to needs. The metal foil 3, the first thick metal plate 1, and the second thick metal plate 2 have the same dimensions, and the length of the Soller slit gasket 4 is the same as the length of the metal foil 3. The above-mentioned components are processed using a laser cutting process, and the processing quantity is determined by the length of the Soller slit. It should be noted that the inner sides of the first thick metal plate 1 and the second thick metal plate 2 are both close to a metal foil 3. The number of multiple groups of metal foils 3 is one more than the number of multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4. The tension bolts 5 pass through the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, the multiple groups of metal foils 3, and the multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4 to connect and combine them. Compared with the current Soller slits of diffractometers, most of which bond metal foils with glue, it has the advantages of simple installation, firmness, and durability.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figures 2-6 shown, four counterbored holes 101 distributed in a rectangular shape are opened on the first thick metal plate 1. Threaded holes 201 are opened on the second thick metal plate 2 corresponding to the counterbored holes 101. First through holes 301 are opened on the metal foil 3 corresponding to the counterbored holes 101. There are four first through holes 301. Second through holes 401 are opened on the Soller slit gasket 4 corresponding to the counterbored holes 101. There are two second through holes 401 on each Soller slit gasket 4. The tension bolts 5 pass through the counterbored holes 101, the first through holes 301, the second through holes 401, and the threaded holes 201 to connect and fix them. There are four groups of tension bolts 5. By setting the positions of the counterbored holes 101, the threaded holes 201, the first through holes 301, and the second through holes 401 to correspond, the tension bolts 5 can pass through in sequence, which is used to quickly connect and combine the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, the multiple groups of metal foils 3, and the multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4 for installation. The structure is simple, the assembly is convenient, and by setting four groups of tension bolts 5 for symmetric connection, the stability is good.

[0030] In order to avoid position deviation during the assembly of the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3, and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4, in this embodiment, a positioning structure is provided between the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3, and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4, which is used to position the assembly positions among the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3, and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, the positioning structure includes first positioning strips 102 provided at the upper and lower ends on the side of the first thick metal plate 1 close to the metal foils 3 and second positioning grooves 402 opened on the side of the Soller slit gasket 4 close to the first thick metal plate 1. The first positioning strips 102 are integrally formed with the first thick metal plate 1, and the first positioning strips 102 can be inserted into the second positioning grooves 402 in alignment. The positioning structure further includes first positioning grooves 202 opened at the upper and lower ends on the side of the second thick metal plate 2 close to the metal foils 3 and second positioning strips 403 provided on the side of the Soller slit gasket 4 close to the second thick metal plate 2. The second positioning strips 403 are integrally formed with the Soller slit gasket 4, and the second positioning strips 403 can be inserted into the first positioning grooves 202 and the second positioning grooves 402 in alignment. When assembling the Soller slit gasket 4 with the first thick metal plate 1 and the second thick metal plate 2, a group of Soller slit gaskets 4 close to the first thick metal plate 1 and the first thick metal plate 1 are positioned and assembled by inserting the first positioning strips 102 into the second positioning grooves 402, and a group of Soller slit gaskets 4 close to the second thick metal plate 2 and the second thick metal plate 2 are positioned and assembled by inserting the second positioning strips 403 into the first positioning grooves 202 in alignment. Adjacent two groups of Soller slit gaskets 4 are positioned and assembled by inserting the second positioning strips 403 into the second positioning grooves 402 in alignment, which is used to avoid the installation position deviation among the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, through slots 302 for the first positioning strips 102 and the second positioning strips 403 to pass through are opened at the upper and lower ends of the metal foils 3. During assembly, by passing the first positioning strips 102 and the second positioning strips 403 through the through slots 302 on the metal foils 3, the installation position of the metal foils 3 is positioned.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first positioning strips 102 and the second positioning strips 403 have the same size, the first positioning grooves 202 and the second positioning grooves 402 have the same size, and the insertion ends of the first positioning strips 102 and the second positioning strips 403 are both chamfered.

[0034] A novel Soller slit for an X-ray diffractometer provided by the utility model is connected and combined by a tensioning bolt 5 passing through a first thick metal plate 1, a second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3 and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4. Compared with the Soller slits of current diffractometers, most of which are bonded with metal foils using glue, it has the advantages of simple installation and durability. Moreover, a positioning structure is provided between the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3 and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4 to position the assembly positions among the first thick metal plate 1, the second thick metal plate 2, multiple groups of metal foils 3 and multiple groups of Soller slit gaskets 4, preventing position deviation during assembly and improving product quality.

[0035] The above embodiments are the preferred implementation schemes of the utility model. In addition, the utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious replacement without departing from the concept of the technical solution is within the protection scope of the utility model.
