BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0010] The utility model will be further explained in detail in connection with the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0011] Fig. 1 The structure schematic diagram of the utility model for removing the protective cover and the cover plate is shown in the figure;

[0012] Fig. 2 The structure schematic diagram of the utility model for removing the protective cover is shown in the figure;

[0013] Fig. 3 The overall structure schematic diagram of the utility model is shown in the figure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] As Figs. 1-3 shown, the utility model quartz tube cleaning machine, including frame 1, frame 1's four around has the protective plate. Frame 1's top is equipped with the protective bin 2, and the protective bin 2's top is connected with the protective cover 3 that can open and close, and the protective cover 3 adopts the flip type opening structure.

Turn on the heating power supply, and the quartz tube 11 is heated at the temperature increasing rate of not more than 10 °C / min. When the temperature in the heating chamber 4 reaches 100 °C, maintain this temperature for 30 minutes, to ensure that the quartz tube 11 is uniformly preheated, and reduce thermal stress.

[0021] 2. Heating stage: gradually adjust the temperature to the gasification temperature of the parylene, usually between 600°C and 650°C. Continue to increase the temperature at a rate of no more than 10°C / min to avoid rapid heating causing damage to the quartz tube 11.
