Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum chamber refrigeration technology, specifically a refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for a vacuum chamber. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum simulation chambers typically contain refrigeration equipment for simulating operations in specific temperature environments. During operation, refrigerant needs to be supplied to the refrigeration equipment to ensure its proper cooling effect. Existing supply structures often achieve this by using a supply pipeline that passes directly through the chamber wall. This pipeline is directly connected to the refrigerant pipeline via a flange. The refrigerant in the refrigerant pipeline comes into direct contact with the chamber through the flange and the supply pipeline. This results in a high thermal conductivity and a significant reduction in cooling efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for a vacuum chamber, which can solve the technical problem of poor refrigeration effect mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for a vacuum chamber, comprising a chamber connection part and a refrigerant pipeline connection part. The chamber connection part includes a penetration pipeline fixed to the wall of the vacuum chamber and a first connecting flange fixedly connected to the end of the penetration pipeline, the penetration pipeline extending outwards from the chamber. The refrigerant pipeline connection part includes a refrigerant pipeline body, a transfer pipeline surrounding the outside of the refrigerant pipeline body, and a second connecting flange connected to the end of the transfer pipeline and used to connect to the first connecting flange. The refrigerant pipeline body passes through the penetration pipeline and enters the interior of the vacuum chamber. The transfer pipeline is constructed in a frustum shape, one end fixedly connected to the refrigerant pipeline body, and the other end extending towards the distal end of the refrigerant pipeline body and fixedly connected to the end face of the second connecting flange.
[0005] In a preferred embodiment, a first sealing ring is connected between the first connecting flange and the second connecting flange to ensure the sealing of the connection between the two connecting flanges.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the transfer pipe is made of metal, and its two ends are welded to the outer wall of the refrigerant pipeline body and the end face of the second connecting flange, respectively. This connection method can improve the sealing performance of the vacuum chamber.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the transfer pipe is a metal bellows. By providing a bellows structure, deformation of the transfer pipe during the welding process can be prevented.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the gap between the refrigerant pipeline body and the through-chamber pipeline is set between 3-5 mm. This distance is set to prevent the refrigerant pipeline body from shaking and to prevent the refrigerant pipeline body from contacting the through-chamber pipeline.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a second sealing ring is further embedded between the inner wall of the first and / or second connecting flange and the refrigerant pipeline. This structure further ensures that the vacuum chamber remains sealed.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for vacuum chambers provided by this utility model, through the cooperation of the penetration pipeline, refrigerant pipeline, transfer pipeline and various connecting flanges, can effectively reduce the thermal conductivity of the refrigerant pipeline, and at the same time improve the reliability of the penetration pipeline seal, thus ensuring the airtightness of the vacuum chamber.

[0018] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment discloses a refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for a vacuum chamber. Through this mechanism, the refrigerant pipeline outside the chamber extends into the vacuum chamber and connects to the refrigeration equipment inside the chamber, while ensuring the airtightness of the vacuum chamber.
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism includes a compartment connection part 1 and a refrigerant pipeline connection part 2 that docks with it.
[0020] The chamber connection part 1 includes a through-chamber pipe 11 fixed to the chamber wall of the vacuum chamber and a first connecting flange 12 fixedly connected to the end of the through-chamber pipe 11. The through-chamber pipe 11 communicates with the interior of the chamber and extends from the chamber wall to the outside. To ensure the airtightness of the connection of the through-chamber pipe 11, it is preferable to weld the through-chamber pipe 11 to the chamber wall, or to integrally form the through-chamber pipe 11 during the production and processing of the vacuum chamber.
[0021] The refrigeration piping connection 2 includes a refrigerant piping body 21, a transfer pipe 22 surrounding the outside of the refrigerant piping body 21, and a second connecting flange 23 connected to the other end of the transfer pipe 22. The second connecting flange 23 is sleeved outside the refrigerant piping body 21. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the refrigerant piping body 21 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the through-chamber pipe 11 and the first connecting flange 12, so that the refrigerant piping body 21 can pass through the through-chamber pipe 11 and enter the interior of the vacuum chamber.
[0022] The transfer pipe 22 is connected between the refrigerant pipe body 21 and the second connecting flange 23. Specifically, in this embodiment, the transfer pipe 22 is constructed as a frustum shape, which is sleeved on the outside of the refrigerant pipe body 21. One end is fixedly connected to the refrigerant pipe body 21, and the other end extends toward the distal end of the refrigerant pipe body 21 and is fixedly connected to the end face of the second connecting flange 23.
[0023] The second connecting flange 23 is used to connect with the first connecting flange 12, and its specifications are compatible with the first connecting flange 12. To ensure the sealing of the connection between the first connecting flange 12 and the second connecting flange 23, a first sealing ring (not shown in the figure) is also connected between the two connecting flanges.
[0024] In this embodiment, the transfer pipe 22 is made of metal. One end of it is welded to the outer wall of the refrigerant pipe body 21, and the other end is preferably welded to the end face of the second connecting flange 23. This connection method can improve the sealing performance of the vacuum chamber. Meanwhile, since the refrigerant pipe body 21 only has one circumferential welded connection point with the transfer pipe 22, the contact area is very small. Furthermore, there is a gap between the refrigerant pipe body 21 and the through-chamber pipe 11, with air in between. When simulating a low vacuum state inside the chamber, this gap in the pipe is also in a low vacuum state, resulting in a very low thermal conductivity coefficient, thus significantly reducing the thermal conductivity coefficient of the refrigerant pipe body 21. It should be noted that the gap between the refrigerant pipe body 21 and the through-chamber pipe 11 should not be too large to prevent the refrigerant pipe body 21 from shaking. At the same time, the gap should not be too small to prevent the refrigerant pipe body 21 from contacting the through-chamber pipe 11. A gap of 3-5 mm between the refrigerant pipe body 21 and the through-chamber pipe 11 is preferable.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the transfer pipe 22 is made of a metal bellows with a certain strength. Since the bellows has good flexibility and excellent guiding and retraction function, it can effectively prevent the transfer pipe 22 from deforming during the welding process.
[0026] To further ensure the airtightness of the vacuum chamber, a second sealing ring (not shown in the figure) is also embedded in the inner wall of the first connecting flange 12 and / or the second connecting flange 23. The second sealing ring acts between the first connecting flange 12 and / or the second connecting flange 23 and the refrigerant pipeline. This sealing structure, together with the transfer pipeline 22, can further ensure that the vacuum chamber is in a sealed state.
[0027] The refrigerant pipeline penetration mechanism for the vacuum chamber provided in this embodiment can effectively reduce the thermal conductivity of the refrigerant pipeline by cooperating with the penetration pipeline 11, the refrigerant pipeline, the transfer pipeline 22, and each connecting flange, while improving the sealing reliability of the penetration pipeline 11 and ensuring the sealing performance of the vacuum chamber.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
