The ball head seat 103 may include a ball head 1031 and a ball head mounting seat 1032. The ball head 1031 is arranged in the spherical recess 1022 of the ball joint seat 102 and can rotate along the spherical recess 1022 of the ball joint seat 102. The proximal end of the ball head mounting seat 1032 is fixedly connected to the distal end of the ball head 1031. The crucible seat 104 is arranged at the distal end of the ball head mounting seat 1032 for supporting the crucible (for example, Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5、 Figure 6 The plurality of adjusting bolts 105 pass through the plurality of adjusting holes 1021 of the ball joint base 102 respectively, and the distal ends of the plurality of adjusting bolts 105 are connected (e.g., abut, etc.) with the proximal end surface of the crucible base 104, for adjusting the swing angle of the crucible 200.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the plurality of adjusting bolts 1051 are connected with the plurality of adjusting threaded holes 10211 of the ball joint base 102 respectively, facilitating the adjustment and fixation of the adjusting bolts 1051.
[0074] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the vacuum crucible adjusting mechanism 100 can also include a plurality of locking nuts 106 connected with the plurality of adjusting bolts 105 respectively, for locking the plurality of adjusting bolts 105, so as to fix the swing angle of the crucible (e.g., Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 The plurality of adjusting bolts 105 pass through the plurality of adjusting holes 1021 of the ball joint base 102 respectively, and the distal ends of the plurality of adjusting bolts 105 are connected (e.g., abut, etc.) with the proximal end surface of the crucible base 104, for adjusting the swing angle of the crucible 200.
[0075] Those skilled in the art can understand that, although Figure 2Four locking nuts 106 are shown for locking four adjusting bolts 105 respectively, but this is only exemplary. The number of locking nuts 106 can be adjusted according to the number of adjusting bolts 105 to lock multiple adjusting bolts 105 respectively.

The elastic assembly 108 may include an elastic assembly seat 1081 and a plurality of elastic components 1082. The elastic assembly seat 1081 is disposed on the fixed base 101. The proximal ends of the plurality of elastic components 1082 are connected to the elastic assembly seat 1081, and the distal ends are used to connect to the crucible 200, thereby securing the crucible 200 on the crucible base 104 through elastic force.
