SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an enhanced filtration type center support that can convert the crystal deposits in the above problems into fine dust, thereby protecting the working surface of the vacuum valve and prolonging the maintenance time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The structure provided by the utility model will be explained and described in detail below in combination with the drawings of the specification.

[0022] REFERENCE Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment specifically discloses an enhanced filter-type central support, including a central support body 1. The central support body 1 has a ring-shaped structure and is made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel. It is a standard vacuum pipeline component. A groove 11 is formed on the outer peripheral sidewall of the central support body 1. The groove 11 extends along the entire circumference and is used to place an O-ring seal for supporting the seal during vacuum pipeline connection. An installation ring 2 is provided on the inner sidewall of the central support body 1. The installation ring 2 is concentrically arranged with the central support body 1, that is, the installation ring 2 is welded to the center surface of the central support body 1. A filter component 6, a turbulence component 5, and a throttling component 4 are sequentially connected along the axial direction on the installation ring 2. A flared mouth 41 is formed in the center of the throttling component 4. The flared mouth 41 can be made of aluminum alloy to ensure structural strength. The larger end of the flared mouth 41 is close to the turbulence component 5, and the smaller end is away from the turbulence component 5.

[0023] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the working principle of the central support is as follows: it is installed on the vacuum pipeline 8. When the coating equipment is working, the high-temperature gas flow 7 carrying the reaction products enters from the flared end 41 of the throttling device 4. At this time, since the gas flow enters from the wider vacuum pipeline 8 to the narrow end of the flared end 41, the flow rate of the gas flow increases and the temperature decreases due to the throttling effect, making the reaction products easier to condense. The cooled and accelerated gas flow gradually decreases in speed as the cross-section of the flared end gradually increases and enters the turbulence component 5, further cooling the gas flow and reducing the flow rate. The gas flow carrying the reaction products is disturbed in the turbulence component 5, and the reaction products are cooled and condensed into fine dust. These dust particles are then intercepted by the filter component 6 to achieve the filtration effect.

[0024] Through the above process, this embodiment can cool and condense the reaction products in the gas flow into fine dust. This dust is non-adhesive and will not be deposited or condensed on the working surface of the vacuum valve. It will be discharged with the gas flow, thereby avoiding the reaction products from condensing into continuous large hard crystal deposits on the valve plate, which would restrict the mechanical rotation of the butterfly valve or affect its sealing performance if deposited on the valve plate of the angle valve.

[0025] To improve airflow within the central support, in some preferred embodiments, the mounting ring 2 is circumferentially spaced with three support shafts 3, and the filter assembly 6, the turbulence-disrupting assembly 5, and the throttling assembly 4 are sequentially and spaced along the support shafts 3. Specifically, the edges of the mounting ring 2, the filter assembly 6, the turbulence-disrupting assembly 5, and the throttling assembly 4 each have three corresponding connecting holes for threading the three support shafts 3; thus connecting the filter assembly 6, the turbulence-disrupting assembly 5, and the throttling assembly 4 to the mounting ring 2 as a whole. Simultaneously, a certain gap space is formed between the filter assembly 6, the turbulence-disrupting assembly 5, the throttling assembly 4, and the mounting ring 2, allowing the airflow 7 to flow as fully as possible as possible when passing through the throttling assembly 4, the turbulence-disrupting assembly 5, and the filter assembly 6, thereby improving the turbulence and filtration effects.

[0026] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the filter assembly 6 includes a coarse filter element 61 and a fine filter element 62. The coarse filter element 61 is located closer to the turbulence-inducing component 5, and the fine filter element 62 is located closer to the mounting ring 2. By setting two stages of filtration, the filtration effect is further improved. The fine filter element 61 has a higher filtration level than the coarse filter element 62. Their filtration levels can be selected according to the process type and reactant type. Both the coarse filter element 61 and the fine filter element 62 are made of glass fiber, which has high flame retardancy and can withstand high temperatures. In some optional embodiments, the filter assembly 6 can also be provided with more filter elements, depending on the process requirements. The materials of the coarse filter element 61 and the fine filter element 62 can also be ceramic fiber or other materials.

[0027] In some embodiments, the airflow deflector 5 includes a cylindrical housing 51 and a deflecting stainless steel wire mesh 52 made of wound stainless steel wire installed inside the cylindrical housing 51. The deflecting stainless steel wire mesh 52, made of wound stainless steel wire, can both cool the airflow and create a good airflow deflection effect within the cylindrical housing 51, and also has a certain preliminary filtration effect. Of course, in some other embodiments, a deflector plate can also be used to disrupt the airflow.

[0028] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model can realize the state transformation and filtration of reaction products in vacuum coating equipment. It only needs to be installed in the original vacuum pipeline of the equipment and replace the ordinary central support in front of the key vacuum valve. Without changing the overall structure and size of the equipment, it can extend the service life of the vacuum valve, reduce the equipment failure rate and maintenance frequency, thereby making the process more stable, extending the normal process time, and thus improving the equipment's production capacity.

[0029] The overall structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and it is highly versatile. It is suitable for different pipe diameters and can also meet different working conditions and different process types by replacing filter plates of different filtration grades and adjusting the size of stainless steel wire mesh. It is easy to use and convenient to maintain.
