[0002] An autoclave is a container used to create, store, or measure a vacuum environment. The autoclave is generally made of high-strength metal materials, such as stainless steel or glass, to withstand external atmospheric pressure and maintain the internal vacuum state. Its shape can be cylindrical, spherical, or other specific shapes, depending on application requirements.

[0003] When compounding materials, an autoclave used to manufacture composite materials is required. The autoclave used to manufacture composite materials is a device specially designed to realize the composite process of different materials. According to the process requirements of material composite, the autoclave needs to be equipped with heating and cooling systems. The heating system can use resistance heating, induction heating or radiation heating to raise the temperature inside the tank to the required composite temperature. The cooling system is used to quickly reduce the temperature inside the tank after the composite process is completed to prevent the material from overheating or deformation.

[0004] During the material compounding process, the materials to be compounded are placed in an autoclave, and then the air in the autoclave is extracted by a vacuum pump to form a vacuum environment. In the vacuum state, the gas molecules on the surface of the material are discharged, making the contact between the materials closer. However, during the processing process, the material and the object are in a placed state. In the vacuum process, it is easier for the object position to shift, which makes it impossible to meet the needs of use. Utility Model Content

A vacuum pump 6 is installed on the right side of the tank body 1, and a connecting hole 7 is provided on the top of the vacuum pump 6. A slider 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lifting plate 16, and a slide groove 14 is provided on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the fixed frame 9. The slider 15 is slidably connected to the slide groove 14.

[0033] Specifically, before using the autoclave for material compounding, the object to be processed must first be placed on a specially designed placement plate 21; the placement plate 21 is a flat platform for stably carrying objects; then, the operator needs to rotate the knob 13, which is connected to the driving pulley 12; by rotating the knob 13, the driving pulley 12 starts to rotate; the rotation of the driving pulley 12 is transmitted to the driven pulley 10 through a connecting belt 11, so that the driven pulley 10 also rotates synchronously; the coordinated rotation of the driving pulley 12 and the driven pulley 10 further drives the rotation of the threaded rod 18; the rotational movement of the threaded rod 18 causes the lifting plate 16 to move vertically up and down along the threaded rod 18; the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting plate 16 drives the slider 15 in the slide groove 14 Slide horizontally; the sliding trajectory of the slider 15 is carefully planned to ensure that the object can remain stable during the pressing process; through the movement of the lifting plate 16, the insertion rod 19 and the pressure plate 20 will also move synchronously, thereby realizing the pressing and fixation of the object; in order to adapt to objects of different shapes, the shape of the pressure plate 20 can be easily replaced through the locking mechanism between the card slot 17 and the insertion rod 19; in this way, no matter how the shape of the object changes, a suitable pressure plate 20 can be found to adapt; finally, when the object is properly placed and fixed, turn on the vacuum pump 6 to vacuum the inside of the tank body 1; in this way, a stable vacuum environment can be formed inside the tank body 1, thereby avoiding the problem of reduced material composite quality due to position offset of the object during the composite process.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 The translation mechanism 2 includes a servo motor 201. The bottom of the servo motor 201 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the tank body 1. The output end of the servo motor 201 passes through the tank body 1 and is fixedly connected to a fixed rod 203. The upper and lower ends of the outer wall of the fixed rod 203 are fixedly connected to a winding wheel 202. A steel wire rope 204 is provided on the outer side of the winding wheel 202. The left end of the steel wire rope 204 is fixedly connected to a hook 206. A hanging ring 205 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the placement plate 21. The hook 206 is engaged with the hanging ring 205.

[0035] Specifically, by starting the servo motor 201, the fixed rod 203 can be driven to rotate; as the fixed rod 203 rotates, the winding wheel 202 connected thereto will also rotate synchronously; the rotational movement of the winding wheel 202 further drives the wire rope 204 to wind; as the wire rope 204 winds, the hook 206 will move accordingly; the movement of the hook 206 will drag the hanging ring 205, so that the hanging ring 205 moves synchronously with the placement plate 21; this series of mechanical movements ultimately realizes the loading process of the object to be processed on the placement plate 21; through this automated method, there is no need for manual handling and loading, which greatly saves time and manpower.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 A bracket 4 is installed in the middle of the bottom wall of the tank body 1, and auxiliary frames 5 are installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the tank body 1; observation windows 8 are installed on the left and right ends of the front side of the tank body 1, and the front side of the observation window 8 is threadedly connected with a bolt 3;

[0037] Specifically, the coordination between the bracket 4 and the auxiliary frame 5 increases the stability of the tank body 1 when supported, and the composite state can be observed through the observation window 8 .

[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The left side of the outer wall of the tank body 1 is fixedly connected to an external ring 24, the rear side of the external ring 24 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 22, and the left side of the rotating shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 25; the outer wall of the external ring 24 is equidistantly threaded with multiple screws 23, and the external ring 24 is threadedly connected to the sealing cover 25 through the screws 23;

[0039] Specifically, the connection between the sealing cover 25 and the external ring 24 is disconnected by the screw 23 , and the sealing cover 25 is rotated while the shaft 22 rotates to open or close the tank body 1 .

[0040] Working principle: before using the autoclave, place the object on the placement plate 21, rotate the knob 13 to drive the driving pulley 12 to rotate, the rotation of the driving pulley 12 is linked to the driven pulley 10 through the connecting belt 11 to rotate synchronously, the rotation of the driving pulley 12 and the driven pulley 10 are rotated synchronously with the threaded rod 18, the rotation of the threaded rod 18 drives the lifting plate 16 to move up and down synchronously, the movement of the lifting plate 16 drives the slider 15 to slide in the slide groove 14, and the movement trajectory of the lifting plate 16 is planned. Through the movement of the lifting plate 16, the insertion rod 19 and the pressing plate 20 are moved synchronously, so that the object is pressed and fixed. The shape of the pressing plate 20 can be changed by the engagement between the card slot 17 and the insertion rod 19. It has been adapted to objects of various shapes. Turn on the vacuum pump 6 to evacuate the tank body 1;

[0041] The servo motor 201 is turned on to drive the fixed rod 203 to rotate. The rotation of the fixed rod 203 causes the winding wheel 202 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the winding wheel 202 drives the wire rope 204 to wind, thereby pulling the hook 206 to move. The movement of the hook 206 drags the hanging ring 205 and the placement plate 21 to move synchronously, thereby completing the loading process of the object to be processed on the placement plate 21.
