TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to crystal growth equipment furnace, concretely relates to a kind of liquid touch alarm of single crystal furnace. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the automatic pulling crystal process, the heat shield needs to be automatically lowered above the liquid surface. If the liquid port distance is too close (the liquid port distance is the vertical distance between the flow guide cylinder and the silicon liquid in the quartz crucible), the high-temperature silicon liquid is easy to immerse into the flow guide cylinder, causing silicon spitting accidents, and even causing the single crystal furnace to explode due to the silicon liquid scalding through the water-cooled screen. It is necessary to take measures to prevent the flow guide cylinder from contacting the silicon liquid in the quartz crucible and to avoid the silicon liquid from easily immersing into the flow guide cylinder. The existing technology uses a liquid touch alarm mechanism to alarm in time. The liquid touch mechanism is installed on the inside of the heat shield. However, the heat shield needs to be cleaned. When the heat shield is cleaned, the liquid touch mechanism is easy to fall off and easy to be damaged. After the damage, the whole needs to be replaced, which is high in cost.
