A filter screen plate 62 is connected inside the mounting frame 65, and a seal 61 is provided at one end of the mounting frame 65.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, after the substrate coating is completed, first release the sealing effect of the seal 61 on the mounting frame 65, and then start the cooling fan 63. The air in the external environment enters the inside of the mounting frame 65 after being filtered by the filter screen plate 62, and then enters the vacuum chamber 1 through the air outlet 64 to perform air-cooling on the coated substrate on the rotating placement mechanism 8, avoiding the accident of burning hands when subsequent operators take the substrate.
[0025] Specifically, the seal 61 includes a sealing plate 611, a connecting block 612, and an electric push rod 613.

Connecting blocks 612 are connected to the output ends of the two electric push rods 613, and a sealing plate 611 is connected between the two connecting blocks 612 and at one end of the mounting frame 65.
[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, start the electric push rod 613 to drive the connecting block 612 to move. The movement of the connecting block 612 drives the sealing plate 611 to move away from the mounting frame 65, facilitating the air in the external environment to enter the vacuum chamber 1 through the mounting frame 65. Also, the electric push rod 613 can be started to drive the connecting block 612 to move. The movement of the connecting block 612 drives the sealing plate 611 to move and fit the mounting frame 65 to perform a sealing operation on the end of the mounting frame 65, facilitating the operator to perform the vacuum pumping operation on the vacuum chamber 1.
[0027] Specifically, a sealing gasket is connected to the side of the sealing plate 611 close to the mounting frame 65, and a sealing groove is provided at the end of the mounting frame 65 corresponding to the sealing gasket.
[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, after the sealing plate 611 moves and fits the side wall of the mounting frame 65, the sealing gasket is correspondingly clamped into the sealing groove. Under the action of the sealing gasket and the sealing groove, it is possible to avoid gaps between the sealing plate 611 and the mounting frame 65, ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing plate 611.
[0029] When this embodiment is in use, open the sealing door 4, place the substrate to be coated on the rotary placement mechanism 8, then inject the raw materials required for coating into the inside of the material storage box 2 through the feeding port 3, and then evaporate and move the injected raw materials onto the substrate through the coating mechanism 7 to complete the coating operation of the substrate. After the coating operation is completed, start the electric push rod 613 to drive the connecting block 612 to move. The movement of the connecting block 612 drives the sealing plate 611 to move away from the installation frame 65. Then start the cooling fan 63. The air in the external environment enters the inside of the installation frame 65 after being filtered by the filter screen plate 62, and then enters the vacuum box 1 through the air outlet 64 to perform air cooling on the coated substrate on the rotary placement mechanism 8. Then open the sealing door 4, and then take out the coated substrate from the rotary placement mechanism 8 to avoid scalding accidents when the operator takes the substrate.

[0032] Specifically, a guiding rotary ring is connected to the outer side wall of the filter screen cylinder 93, a guiding rotary groove is arranged on the inner side wall of the filter screen cylinder 93 at the position corresponding to the guiding rotary ring, and a rotating rod 94 is connected to the inner side wall of the filter screen cylinder 93.
[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, after injecting raw materials into the filter screen cylinder 93, hold the rotating rod 94 and drive the filter screen cylinder 93 to rotate. The rotation of the filter screen cylinder 93 drives the guiding rotary ring to rotate inside the guiding rotary groove. During the rotation of the filter screen cylinder 93, the feeding efficiency of the raw materials inside the filter screen cylinder 93 can be accelerated.
[0034] When this embodiment is in use, inject the raw materials into the filter screen cylinder 93, then hold the rotating rod 94 and drive the filter screen cylinder 93 to rotate. During the rotation of the filter screen cylinder 93, the small particle raw materials fall into the inside of the material storage box 2 through the gaps on the filter screen cylinder 93, and the large particle raw materials remain inside the filter screen cylinder 93, avoiding the large particle raw materials from entering the coating mechanism 7 and affecting the coating efficiency. When it is necessary to take out the large particle raw materials inside the filter screen cylinder 93 for reprocessing, rotate the installation cylinder 91 to make it away from the installation ring 92, then take out the installation cylinder 91 from the feeding port 3, and then pour out the large particle raw materials inside the filter screen cylinder 93 and perform reprocessing on the large particle raw materials, which is convenient for subsequent coating operations of other substrates using the processed large particle raw materials.

The right side of the bottom of the material storage box 2 is communicated with a feeding pipe, and the bottom of the feeding pipe penetrates through the vacuum chamber 1. Mounting plates are connected to both sides inside the vacuum chamber 1. Limiting grooves are provided on the relatively close sides of the two mounting plates. A limiting rod is slidably connected inside the limiting groove. One side of the limiting rod is fixedly connected to a mounting rod. A first sliding groove is opened inside the mounting plate, and a first slider is slidably connected inside the first sliding groove. One side of the first slider is fixedly connected to the mounting rod. A second servo motor is fixedly installed on the top of the vacuum chamber 1. A second threaded rod is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second servo motor, and the second threaded rod penetrates into the first sliding groove and is rotationally connected to the first slider through a thread. A strong magnetic head is connected to the right side of the mounting rod on the left side inside the vacuum chamber 1, and a spraying head is connected to the left side of the mounting rod on the right side inside the vacuum chamber 1.

The raw material is sent into the inside of the spraying head through the feeding pipe, and is heated and evaporated by the spraying head. At the same time, the evaporated substance is attracted by the action of the strong magnetic head, so that the evaporated substance moves and adheres to the side of the object. The lifting adjustment of the first slider is realized through the cooperation between the second servo motor, the second threaded rod, and the thread, so as to realize the lifting adjustment of the mounting rod to drive the strong magnetic head and the spraying head to rise, and realize the comprehensive coating of the object.
[0037] The structure and principle of the rotating placement mechanism 8 composed of a first servo motor and a placement disk in the present utility model have been disclosed in a vacuum magnetron coating device with a Chinese patent application number of 202320929353.4.
