Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of film preparation, and relates to a bias voltage device for PVD coating. BACKGROUND

[0002] The glass secondary product, namely, deep-processed glass, is a glass product with specific functions prepared by using flat plate glass (float glass, common flat plate glass, flat-drawn glass, and calendered glass) as a basic raw material and adopting different processing techniques according to different use requirements.

[0003] PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is a technology of converting a solid material into a gaseous state by a physical method and depositing a film on a substrate surface, which is commonly used in the field of glass processing. Coating of electrochromic glass is a technology of coating different film layers on a glass substrate in a certain order. The coating process requires bias voltage to be applied to the glass substrate to adsorb the metal film layer prepared in the previous process on the bottom layer. At present, the bias voltage function in the coating process of PVD processed glass is mainly realized by a copper brush. For example, CN113684463A discloses a flat plate continuous PVD equipment and a carrier plate bias voltage introduction device thereof, which includes a power supply, a connecting mechanism, and an electricity introduction mechanism. The electricity introduction mechanism includes a wire and loading and unloading switches. The number of the connecting mechanisms is set to at least three and arranged in sequence. The connecting mechanism includes a mounting seat for connecting the combined chamber and a flexible brush that is not in conduction with the combined chamber. The flexible brush is in conduction with the wire, which can avoid damage to the connection between the carrier plate and the connecting mechanism caused by excessive instantaneous current.

[0004] However, the traditional copper brush used in the bias voltage device has the following two problems: first, the copper wire is easy to fall off during the contact between the glass carrier plate and the copper brush, and the fallen copper wire is easy to enter the molecular pump and damage the equipment. Second, the glass carrier plate is advanced and retreated in the chamber multiple times, which can cause the copper brush to curl, resulting in the linear increase of the sliding friction between the glass carrier plate and the copper brush, and even causing the glass carrier plate to be stuck. It is very important to effectively solve the above problems for improving the coating quality and work efficiency. Utility model content
