The gas supply cabinet supplies nitrogen to the diffusion furnace, and the nitrogen is connected to the equipment pipeline via a nitrogen supply pipe. At the external gas inlet and the equipment connection point, a pressure stabilizing tank device needs to be added to reduce rework caused by external gas pressure fluctuations. However, the nitrogen supplied in production is currently liquid nitrogen, which will be converted into gas nitrogen for use in the production line.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0029] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0030] Please see Figure 1The present invention provides a device for reducing air pressure fluctuations in diffusion equipment, comprising: an air source cabinet 1 and an adjustment structure 3, wherein an adjustment button 2 is installed on one side of the air source cabinet 1, and a connecting pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the air source cabinet 1.

[0031] The regulating structure 3 is located above the gas source cabinet 1, and the auxiliary structure 4 is provided on one side of the gas source cabinet 1.

[0032] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The regulating structure 3 includes a delivery pipe 301, which is fitted against the inner wall of the connecting pipe 5 and connected to it. A gas storage tank 303 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. A regulating valve 304 and a one-way valve 305 are installed on the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. By setting the regulating structure 3, when a nitrogen pressure alarm occurs, the one-way valve 305 can stabilize the pressure inside the nitrogen storage tank 303, ensuring stable pressure during equipment operation. Furthermore, it stabilizes the nitrogen pressure within the equipment and the gas in the pipe, significantly reducing silicon wafer utilization and rework. A manual valve 302 is installed on the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. The manual valve 302 further enhances the safety of nitrogen delivery. Two ear plates 307 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. The ear plates 307 have screw holes 308 on their sides. Two arched plates 309 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the gas source cabinet 1. The inner wall of the arched plate 309 fits against the ear plates 307. A screw 310 is threaded through the side of the arched plate 309. The screw 310 is matched with the size of the screw hole 308. When it is necessary to limit the position of the conveying pipe 301, first move the conveying pipe 301 to insert into the inner wall of the connecting pipe 5, and at the same time, place the ear plate 307 fixed to the outer wall of the conveying pipe 301 into the inner wall of the arched plate 309. After the screw 310 is aligned with the screw hole 308, rotate the screw 310 to connect with the screw hole 308, thus completing the limitation of the conveying pipe 301. When it is necessary to disassemble the conveying pipe 301, first rotate the screw 310 to separate it from the screw hole 308, and then move the ear plate 307 to separate it from the inner wall of the arched plate 309, thus completing the disassembly of the conveying pipe 301. By setting the above structure, the effect of convenient disassembly of the conveying pipe 301 is achieved. A sealing ring 306 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting pipe 5, and the sealing ring 306 fits against the outer wall of the conveying pipe 301. The sealing ring 306 can seal the tiny gap between the connecting pipe 5 and the nitrogen delivery pipe 301, thereby improving the sealing performance between the connecting pipe 5 and the nitrogen delivery pipe 301.

[0033] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 4The auxiliary structure 4 includes a support plate 41, one side of which is fixedly connected to the gas source cabinet 1. A lead screw 42 is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate 41. The arc surface of the lead screw 42 has a bidirectional thread, and two connecting plates 43 are threadedly connected to the arc surface of the lead screw 42. A clamping plate 44 is fixedly connected to the side of each connecting plate 43 that is close to each other. The inner wall of the clamping plate 44 abuts against the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. By setting the auxiliary structure 4, after the nitrogen delivery pipe 301 is installed on the gas source cabinet 1, the clamping plate 44 can be easily adjusted to clamp and limit the nitrogen delivery pipe 301, thereby making the nitrogen delivery pipe 301 stably supported and preventing it from falling due to its own weight, thus improving the stability of the nitrogen transmission process. A guide rod 45 is slidably inserted through the side of the two connecting plates 43, and one end of the guide rod 45 is fixedly connected to the support plate 41. When the lead screw 42 drives the connecting plate 43 to move, the guide rod 45 can guide and position the connecting plate 43, thereby preventing rotational deviation during the movement of the connecting plate 43. Several rotating plates 47 are fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 42, and the rotating plates 47 are evenly distributed at one end of the lead screw 42. Personnel can rotate the rotating plates 47 to drive the lead screw 42, achieving convenient control of the lead screw 42.

[0034] The working principle of the device for reducing gas pressure fluctuations in diffusion equipment provided by this utility model is as follows: In use, first, a one-way valve 305 is added to the nitrogen interface of the nitrogen delivery pipe 301, then the nitrogen storage tank 303 is connected, and a pressure regulating valve is added to the inlet of the storage tank 303. Then, the manual valve 302 is connected to the control switch, and finally, it is connected to the connecting pipe 5 of the equipment's gas source cabinet 1. When it is necessary to limit the delivery pipe 301, first move the delivery pipe 301 to insert into the inner wall of the connecting pipe 5, and simultaneously insert the ear plate 307 fixed to the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301. When the screw 310 is aligned with the screw hole 308, the screw 310 is rotated to connect with the screw hole 308, thus limiting the position of the delivery pipe 301. When the delivery pipe 301 needs to be disassembled, the screw 310 is first rotated to separate from the screw hole 308, and then the ear plate 307 is moved to separate from the inner wall of the arched plate, thus disassembling the delivery pipe 301. The sealing ring 306 can block the tiny gap between the connecting pipe 5 and the nitrogen delivery pipe 301, thereby improving the sealing performance between the connecting pipe 5 and the nitrogen delivery pipe 301.

[0035] When the nitrogen delivery pipe 301 is connected to the connecting pipe 5, and it is necessary to ensure that the nitrogen delivery pipe 301 is stably supported, first rotate the rotating plate 47 to drive the lead screw 42 to rotate. The lead screw 42 drives the two connecting plates 43 with the bidirectional thread on its arc surface, so that the two connecting plates 43 move towards each other at the same time. The connecting plates 43 drive the clamping plate 44. When the clamping plate 44 is firmly abutted against the outer wall of the delivery pipe 301, the reinforcement and support of the nitrogen delivery pipe 301 can be completed. When the lead screw 42 drives the connecting plate 43 to move, the guide rod 45 can guide and position the connecting plate 43, thereby preventing the connecting plate 43 from rotating or shifting during the movement process.

[0036] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model.
