Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of polysilicon production equipment, in particular to a cutting device for recycling graphite chucks. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of polysilicon, graphite chucks are an important auxiliary raw material and are used in large quantities. Before the production furnace is charged, the silicon core is connected to the hole of the graphite chuck by a thread. In the reduction furnace, silicon rods are produced through a reduction process; during the reduction reaction process, silicon material continuously deposits on the upper end of the silicon core, and the diameter gradually becomes thicker until the qualified silicon rod size is finally reached. After the silicon rod completes the reaction, the silicon rod needs to be removed and separated from the graphite chuck. Since one end of the silicon core is inserted into the graphite chuck, during the high-temperature reduction reaction, silicon material will not only deposit on the silicon core but also on the graphite chuck, causing a large amount of silicon material to adhere to the surface of the graphite chuck and the silicon core embedded in the tapered part of the graphite chuck, resulting in a tight combination between the graphite chuck and the silicon rod and making disassembly difficult. Currently, the graphite chuck is mainly separated from the silicon rod by knocking it to break it; the broken graphite chuck can only be scrapped, which not only causes waste of resources but also increases the production cost for its subsequent treatment, and to a certain extent, it will also have an impact on the environment.

In the following description, different "one embodiment" or "embodiment" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, the specific features, structures, or characteristics in one or more embodiments can be combined in any suitable form.

The fastening cylinder 7-1 has a receiving hole for receiving the graphite collet to be cut; one side of the fastening cylinder 7-1 has a threaded hole; the axis of the threaded hole is perpendicular to the axis of the receiving hole; the threaded hole communicates with the receiving hole; the locking member 7-2 is installed on the threaded hole for locking the graphite collet on the receiving hole.
[0044] The cutting mechanism 3 is fixedly arranged on the operating platform 1 and is used for cutting the locked graphite chuck along the radial direction; the graphite chuck rotates under the drive of the drive mechanism 2, and the cutting blade of the cutting mechanism 3 rotates to cut the rotating graphite chuck. The cutting position of the graphite chuck can be selected according to the damage at the end of the graphite chuck and the adhesion of the silicon material, and it is ensured that the support and connection functions of the graphite chuck for the silicon core are not affected. Preferably, the cutting direction of the cutting blade of the cutting mechanism 3 for the graphite chuck is opposite to the thread direction of the silicon core, so that when the cutting blade cuts to the silicon core, it can generate frictional force on the silicon core to promote the rotation of the silicon core and is beneficial to the silicon core to withdraw from the graphite chuck. Preferably, a limiting member 4-1 is arranged between the cutting mechanism 3 and the operating platform 1 and is used for limiting the cutting depth of the cutting mechanism 3, so that the cutting blade completely cuts the graphite chuck and reduces the cutting of the silicon core in the graphite chuck. Preferably, the cutting mechanism 3 is an angle grinder.
[0045] The silicon core unloading mechanism 4 includes: a base 4-3, a limiting member 4-1, and a clamping mechanism 4-2; the base 4-3 is slidably arranged on the operation platform 1 and can slide axially along the fastening cylinder 7-1 relative to the operation platform 1; when the base 4-3 slides, it drives the limiting member 4-1 and the clamping mechanism 4-2 to approach or move away from the chuck holder 7, so as to separate the silicon core that has not been separated after the graphite chuck is cut. The rotation direction of the chuck holder 7 is opposite to the thread direction of the silicon core. When the silicon core is clamped, the graphite chuck continues to rotate driven by the chuck holder 7, and the silicon core rotates relative to the graphite chuck to achieve separation from the graphite chuck.

The inner side of the first clamping member 4-21 has a first clamping groove; the first clamping groove and the second clamping groove act symmetrically with each other for clamping the silicon core. A first flexible anti-slip layer 4-26 is arranged in the first clamping groove to prevent the silicon core from directly contacting the first clamping groove, avoid metal contamination of the silicon core, facilitate the recycling of the silicon core, and increase the friction force. Preferably, the first flexible anti-slip layer 4-26 is detachably arranged in the first clamping groove for easy replacement. Further preferably, the first flexible anti-slip layer 4-26 is a rubber layer or a leather layer to avoid metal contamination of the silicon core.

[0046] The inner side of the second clamping member 4-22 has a second clamping groove; a second flexible anti-slip layer 4-27 is arranged in the second clamping groove; to prevent the silicon core from directly contacting the second clamping groove, avoid metal contamination of the silicon core, facilitate the recycling of the silicon core, and increase the friction force. Preferably, the second flexible anti-slip layer 4-27 is detachably arranged in the second clamping groove for easy replacement. Preferably, the second flexible anti-slip layer 4-27 is a rubber layer or a leather layer to avoid metal contamination of the silicon core.
[0047] The second transmission gear 4-23 meshes with the first transmission gear 4-25 to ensure that the first clamping member 4-21 and the second clamping member 4-22 swing simultaneously. The operating member 4-24 is fastened to the first rotating shaft or the second rotating shaft and is used to rotate the first rotating shaft or the second rotating shaft, thereby driving the first clamping member 4-21 and the second clamping member 4-22 to rotate, so that the first clamping groove and the second clamping groove symmetrically clamp one end of the silicon core in the graphite chuck on both sides. A collection box 6 is arranged at the lower part of the operating platform 1. The collection box 6 is located below the chuck fixture 7 and is used to collect the disassembled silicon core and graphite chuck.
