DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0046] The following will be combined with the drawings Figures 1-4 The utility model is further introduced in detail.
[0047] A single crystal furnace crucible high-precision lifting and rotating device, as shown in the figure, comprises: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, comprising:
[0048] The guide rail assembly 6 is arranged on both sides of the column 8 of the crucible furnace and is fixedly connected with the processing surface of the column 8.
[0049] The sliding assembly 9 is arranged on the guide rail assembly 6 and is slidingly connected with the guide rail assembly 6, is located between the crucible shaft 5 and the guide rail assembly 6, and is used for driving the crucible shaft 5 to move up and down.
[0050] The switching assembly 3 is arranged on the side of the sliding assembly 9 and is drivingly connected with the sliding assembly 9, is used for driving the sliding assembly 9 to perform slow and fast switching movement through power-on attraction and power-off separation.
[0051] During the process of switching component 3 driving sliding component 9 to achieve fast and slow switching motion, the guide rail components 6 located on both sides of column 8 provide stable and symmetrical support for crucible shaft 5, which can effectively avoid offset vibration or even shaking caused by load sharing or vibration, so that crucible shaft 5 has stronger stability during up and down movement, thereby improving processing accuracy and working stability.
[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the guide rail assembly 6 in this embodiment includes:
[0053] The guide rail seat 63 is set on the column 8, located on both sides of the column 8, and is fixedly connected to the machined surface of the column 8.
[0054] The double guide rail 61 is mounted on the guide rail base 63 and is fixedly connected to the guide rail base 63. Its end is on the same plane as the end face of the guide rail base 63, and its surface and two sides are slidably connected to the sliding component 9.
[0055] The first limiting strip 62 is provided on the sliding component 9 and is detachably connected to the sliding component 9. Its end extends to the outside of the guide rail seat 63 to prevent the sliding component 9 from vibrating on the double guide rail 61.
[0056] Two sets of guide rail assemblies 6 are set on both sides of the column 8, which can distribute the load weight on the sliding assembly 9 to both sides of the column 8, so that the sliding assembly 9 can move up and down smoothly and reliably. Moreover, the first limiting strip 62 on the outside of the guide rail seat 63 prevents the vibration or shaking caused by the instantaneous offset of the sliding assembly 9 relative to the double guide rail 61, thus playing a further limiting role.
[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sliding component 9 in this embodiment includes:
[0058] The slide table 91 is located between the crucible shaft 5 and the column 8, and cooperates with the lead screw 1 of the crucible shaft 5. The lead screw 1 passes through the slide table 91 and is detachably connected to the bearing seats at the upper and lower ends of the column 8.
[0059] There are two sliders 92, which are respectively set on the slide table 91. One side wall of the slider is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide table 91, and the other side wall is slidably connected to the double guide rail 61.
[0060] The slide table 91 is connected to the double guide rail 61 on both sides of the column 8 by two sliders 92. This structure distributes the load of the slide table 91 during movement to both sides of the column 8, reducing the vibration or shaking caused by the instantaneous offset of the slider 92 on the double guide rail 61. This allows the slider 92 to move up and down smoothly and reliably, reducing the problem of crawling.
[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the switching component 3 in this embodiment includes:
[0062] A slow-speed motor 31 is located on one side of the slide table 91 and is connected to the lead screw 1 for driving the lead screw 1 to rotate slowly.
[0063] The fast motor 32 is located on one side of the slow motor 31, and its output end is connected to the lead screw 1 to drive the lead screw 1 to rotate rapidly.
[0064] An electromagnetic clutch 33 is disposed between a slow motor 31 and a fast motor 32, and is electrically connected to both the slow motor 31 and the fast motor 32. The slow motor 31 and the fast motor 32 are connected in parallel. The electromagnetic clutch 33 controls the rotation of the slow motor 31 and the fast motor 32 by switching between being energized and de-energized.
[0065] The switching between the slow motor 31 and the fast motor 32 is controlled by the electromagnetic clutch 33, so that the control screw 1 can be smoothly switched between slow and fast motion.
[0066] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the lead screw 1 is a C5 grade precision ball screw 1, and the precision of the ball screw 1 reaches more than 0.018mm, ensuring the precise distance of vertical movement of the crucible shaft 5.
[0067] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first limiting bar 62 in this embodiment includes:
[0068] The limiting piece 621 is set on the side wall of the slide table 91 and is fixedly screwed to the slide table 91.
[0069] A stop bar 622 is provided on the limiting piece 621. One end of the stop bar 622 is fixedly connected to the limiting piece 621, and the other end spans the slider 92 and extends to the outside of the guide rail seat 63.
[0070] The limiting piece 621, together with the stop bar, prevents the slider 92 from vibrating or shaking on the double guide rail 61, and plays an auxiliary role in preventing the slider 92 from crawling due to vibration during movement.
[0071] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the guide rail seat 63 in this embodiment is L-shaped, and the slider 92 moves on the double guide rail 61 to provide space.
[0072] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, a second limiting strip 64 is provided on the side wall of the guide rail seat 63. The second limiting strip 64 is located inside the guide rail seat 63 and is screwed to the L-shaped outer wall of the guide rail seat 63 and the outer wall of the double guide rail 61 respectively. The second limiting strip 64 plays the role of preventing the double guide rail 61 from shaking in the direction of vertical movement. At the same time, in this direction, the second limiting strip 64 also contacts the inner side wall of the slider 92 to prevent the slider 92 from shaking.
[0073] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, there are four second limiting bars 64, with two limiting bars arranged in a group on the side wall of the double guide rail 61 to ensure that the slider 92 can improve stability through contact throughout its entire movement stroke.
[0074] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the column 8 in this embodiment is made of carbon steel plate. The use of carbon steel plate for welding the column 8 improves the load-bearing capacity of the traditional profile welded column 8 and further enhances its strength.
[0075] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the column 8 in this embodiment is made of carbon steel plate, and the welding process solves the problem of insufficient strength of the traditional profile welded column 8.
[0076] Please combine Figures 1-4 The working principle of this embodiment is described in detail below:
[0077] During the operation of the single crystal furnace, the crucible shaft 5 needs to provide rotation and vertical movement. This device uses a double guide rail 61 with a slider 92 mounted on the machined surface of the column 8. The double guide rail 61 provides stable and symmetrical support for the crucible shaft 5, enabling smooth movement of the crucible shaft 5, reducing vibration and noise, and thus ensuring the stability and reliability of the guide rails. The ball screw 1 is installed in the bearing seats at the upper and lower ends of the column 8, and engages with a nut inside the slide table 91 mounted on the double guide rail 61. When the motor drives the screw 1 to rotate, the nut connected to the screw 1 drives the slide table 91 to move vertically up and down, thereby causing the crucible shaft 5 to move vertically up and down. An electromagnetic clutch 33 mounted on the base plate 2 is used to switch between fast and slow movement of the crucible shaft 5. When the electromagnetic clutch 33 is energized and engaged, the slow-speed motor 31 operates, driving the lead screw 1 to rotate slowly, thereby causing the crucible shaft 5 to move slowly in the vertical direction. When the electromagnetic clutch 33 is de-energized, the fast-speed motor 32 drives the lead screw 1 to rotate at high speed, thereby causing the crucible shaft 5 to move rapidly in the vertical direction. The C5-grade precision ball screw 1 has a lead accuracy of over 0.018mm, ensuring the precise vertical movement distance of the crucible shaft 5. A 2000-line encoder 7 mounted on the top of the lead screw 1 is used to measure the linear distance of the crucible shaft 5 during vertical movement, with almost no error and high precision.
[0078] In summary, since the double guide rail 61 has two guide rails and a slider 92, it can effectively avoid offset and shaking caused by load sharing or vibration, thereby improving machining accuracy and working stability. Compared with the existing single guide rail, the double guide rail 61 has stronger stability and higher accuracy.
[0079] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the utility model and is not intended to limit it. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
