Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sapphire technology, and more specifically, to an energy-saving single crystal furnace for sapphire crystal preparation. Background Technology
[0002] Sapphire is an important material in artificial crystals. Due to its excellent mechanical and optical properties, sapphire crystals have been widely used. Energy-saving single crystal furnaces are required in the preparation of sapphire crystals.
[0003] However, in the existing energy-saving single crystal furnace, the process involves first opening the furnace door, placing the raw material in, and then turning on the control cabinet. At this point, the coil inside the furnace is energized, and the current passes through the ring-shaped iron core, generating a strong eddy current. After reaching the melting point, the internal conditions are improved to produce high-quality sapphire. Since the crystal is deposited inside the furnace, the heating effect on the raw material is uneven. When the heating is uneven, various defects are easily generated in the crystal during the production process, affecting the quality. In severe cases, it can easily lead to metamorphic crystal formation or failure to grow single crystals, thereby reducing the production efficiency of the equipment. Therefore, we propose an energy-saving single crystal furnace for sapphire crystal preparation. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model discloses an energy-saving single crystal furnace for sapphire crystal preparation, comprising a base 1, a furnace body 2 fixedly connected to the center of the top of the base 1, a furnace core 3 fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the furnace body 2, a housing 9 fixedly connected to the right side of the top of the base 1, an electric push rod 16 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the housing 9, a sliding plate 17 fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric push rod 16, a fixing plate 8 fixedly connected to the left side of the sliding plate 17 extending to the outside of the housing 9, and a box body 7 fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate 8, a motor 11 fixedly installed to the right side of the top of the inner cavity of the box body 7, a rotating rod 12 fixedly connected to the bottom of the motor 11, a first pulley 13 sleeved on the surface of the rotating rod 12, a belt body 14 sleeved on the surface of the first pulley 13, a second pulley 15 sleeved on the left side of the inner cavity of the belt body 14, a stirring rod 6 sleeved in the inner cavity of the second pulley 15, and a stirring blade 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod 6 extending to the outside of the box body 7, and cover plates 5 attached to both sides of the top of the furnace body 2.
[0026] Through the above technical solution, the motor 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, which in turn drives the first pulley 13 to rotate. The rotation of the first pulley 13 drives the belt body 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the second pulley 15 to rotate. The rotation of the second pulley 15 drives the stirring rod 6 and the stirring blade 4 to rotate, thereby stirring and tumbling the sapphire crystal raw material inside the furnace core 3. This avoids the reduction in crystal production quality due to uneven heating of the sapphire crystal, and greatly improves the efficiency of sapphire crystal production.
[0027] Specifically, the base 1 has fixed posts 10 fixedly connected to all four sides of its bottom, and anti-slip pads are fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed posts 10. Mounting blocks are fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the motor 11, and mounting bolts are provided on the surface of the mounting blocks. A bearing is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the housing 7, and the top of the stirring rod 6 is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the bearing. A slide rail 18 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner cavity of the housing 9, and the right side of the sliding plate 17 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the slide rail 18. The mounting blocks and mounting bolts facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the motor 11. The bearing improves the stability of the rotation of the stirring rod 6, and the slide rail 18 improves the stability of the sliding of the sliding plate 17.
[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the user removes the cover plate 5 from the surface of the furnace body 2. Then, the user pours the sapphire crystal raw material into the inner cavity of the furnace core 3. Next, the cover plate 5 is placed on top of the furnace body 2 to seal it. Then, the user starts the furnace body 2 via the controller to begin heating the raw material inside the furnace core 3. To ensure the uniformity of heating of the raw material inside the furnace core 3, the user starts the electric push rod 16 via the external controller. The electric push rod 16 facilitates the movement of the sliding plate 17, which in turn moves the fixed plate 8. The movement of the fixed plate 8 pushes the stirring rod 6 and the stirring blade 4 into the inner cavity of the furnace core 3. The process can be adjusted according to the sapphire crystal content. The height of the sapphire crystal raw material is adjusted by regulating the insertion depth of the stirring rod 6, thereby improving the uniformity of heating of the sapphire crystal. Then, the user starts the motor 11 through an external controller. The motor 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, which in turn drives the first pulley 13 to rotate. The rotation of the first pulley 13 drives the belt body 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the second pulley 15 to rotate. The rotation of the second pulley 15 drives the stirring rod 6 and the stirring blade 4 to rotate, thereby stirring and tumbling the sapphire crystal raw material inside the furnace core 3, greatly improving the uniformity of heating of the sapphire crystal raw material and thus improving the efficiency of crystal production.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
