The second telescopic module 139 drives the second-layer platform plate 1328 to move along the Y-axis, so that the support platform 1324 moves along the Y-axis, so that the baffles and side support brackets 1325 on both sides no longer clamp the graphite boat, allowing the graphite boat to quickly enter and exit the support platform 1324.

[0108] The toothed support block mentioned above is fixedly installed on the support platform 1324 to support the graphite boat sheet in sections, so that the sheet can cooperate with the pressure strip 13212 in a loose state to make the sheet spacing equal; however, this fixed installation method is bound to the height, spacing and support surface shape of a single-specification graphite boat and cannot be compatible with graphite boats of multiple specifications.

[0109] Therefore, as Figure 13 As shown, to ensure compatibility with graphite boats of various specifications, the support teeth are designed with a lifting mechanism, specifically including: a first support platform 1310 and a second support platform 1312; the first support platform 1310 is provided with at least one first support tooth 1311; the second support platform 1312 is provided with at least one second support tooth 1313; a drive assembly 1314 is used to drive at least one of the first support platforms 1310 and 1312 to lift or lower, so that the second support tooth 1313 is higher or lower than the first support tooth 1311; the first support tooth 1311 and the second support tooth 1313 are used to support graphite boat sheets and have different tooth spacings, ensuring compatibility with graphite boat specifications. The first and second support teeth can be lifted or lowered independently, allowing for precise adjustment of the support height, adapting to graphite boat specifications of different thicknesses and sizes, and improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0110] Furthermore, the second support platform 1312 is disposed below the first support platform 1310; the first support platform 1312 is fixed with multiple rows of first support teeth 1311 at equal intervals along its length direction; the second support platform 1312 is fixed with multiple rows of second support teeth 1313 at equal intervals along its length direction.

[0111] Specifically, the first support platform 1312 has at least one first through slot corresponding to at least one second support tooth 1313; the first through slot is located between two adjacent rows of first support teeth 1311; each second support tooth 1313 passes through the corresponding at least one first through slot.

[0112] During operation, the drive assembly starts working, driving the first support tooth 101 on the first support platform and the second support tooth on the second support platform to rise and fall. In practical applications, only one support tooth needs to rise and fall, or both support teeth can rise and fall simultaneously but independently to achieve precise adjustment of the support position of the graphite boat sheet. As the support teeth rise and fall, the graphite boat sheet is supported at the appropriate height, thus meeting the requirements of a specific graphite boat specification. After adjustment, the drive assembly stops working, and the support teeth remain in the desired position. The adjustable-pitch support tooth frame design can accommodate graphite boats of different specifications without replacing the entire support system, thereby reducing production costs and replacement frequency.

[0113] like Figure 14 As shown, the detection device 14 includes a slide rail assembly 141, which is equipped with a servo pulley structure. Two second gantry moving trusses 142 are slidably arranged on the slide rail assembly 141. The second gantry moving trusses 142 are driven by the servo pulley structure. A second Z-axis servo module 144 is fixedly installed on the two columns of each second gantry moving truss 142. A Y-axis camera assembly 145 is arranged on the second Z-axis servo module 144. The camera of the Y-axis camera assembly 145 performs Y-axis imaging detection on the graphite boat.

[0114] The upper end of the second gantry moving truss 142 is provided with a second Y-axis servo module 143, two third Z-axis servo modules 146 are provided on the second Y-axis servo module 143, and a Z-axis camera assembly 147 is provided on the third Z-axis servo module 146.

[0115] The second gantry moving truss 142 is moved along the X-axis by the slide rail assembly 141, and the Y-axis camera assembly 145 can move along the X-axis and Z-axis by the action of the second Z-axis servo module 144 to capture and detect the side of the graphite boat.

[0116] The cooperation of the second Y-axis servo module 143 and the third Z-axis servo module 146 enables the Z-axis camera assembly 1407 to move simultaneously along the X, Y, and Z axes, allowing for top-down shooting and detection of the graphite axis.

[0117] Check whether the results of the correction of each sheet of each graphite boat meet the design standards.

[0118] The detection device 14 further comprises an X-axis servo moving assembly 148 arranged between the slide rail assemblies 141. The X-axis servo moving assembly 148 comprises an X-axis slide rail 1481, a second belt pulley assembly 1482, a support plate 1483, and a second servo motor 1484. The X-axis slide rail 1481 is fixedly arranged on the bottom surface of the cabinet 1. The second belt pulley assembly 1482 and the second servo motor 1484 are arranged on one side of the X-axis slide rail 1481. The second servo motor 1484 is drivingly connected to the second belt pulley assembly 1482. The X-axis slide rail 1481 is slidingly arranged with two support plates 1483. The two support plates 1483 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper and lower portions of the second belt pulley assembly 1482. The support plates 1483 support the graphite boats.

[0119] The two support plates 1483 are driven to move close to or away from each other by the second belt pulley assembly 1482, so as to adapt to graphite boats of different lengths and improve the applicability.

[0120] As shown in Figures 15-16 The conveying device 15 comprises a Y-axis belt moving servo module 151. The Y-axis belt moving servo module 151 comprises a third servo motor 153, a third belt pulley assembly 154, and two tracks. The third servo motor 153 is drivingly connected to the third belt pulley assembly 154. A Y-axis slider 152 is slidingly arranged on the tracks of the Y-axis belt moving servo module 151. A Z-axis lifting rail mechanism 155 is arranged on the Y-axis slider 152. An X-axis support arm 156 is arranged at the lower end of the Z-axis lifting rail mechanism 155. A jaw assembly 157 is symmetrically arranged on the X-axis support arm 156.

[0121] The jaw assembly 157 is driven by a cylinder to grab the graphite boat, and then the graphite boat is lifted by the Z-axis lifting rail mechanism 155 and moved by the Y-axis belt moving servo module 151.

[0122] The working principle before improvement: the external feeding machine sends the graphite boat to the loading and unloading device, the loading and unloading device sends the graphite boat to the first buffer device, and then the carrying device carries the graphite boat to the tightness correction device for tightness correction. During the tightness correction of the first graphite boat, the second graphite boat is sent to the first buffer device by the loading and unloading device. After the correction of the first graphite boat is completed, the carrying device carries the corrected first graphite boat to the detection device for detection. During the detection, the carrying device carries the second graphite boat in the first buffer device to the tightness correction device for tightness correction. After the detection of the first corrected graphite boat is completed, the carrying device moves the first graphite boat to the second buffer device, and then carries the second corrected graphite boat to the detection device for detection. Then, the third graphite boat is fed to the tightness correction device, and then the carrying device puts the first graphite boat on the second buffer device into the first buffer device, and then unloads;

[0123] During this process, the unqualified graphite boat is carried by the carrying device to the tightness correction device again, and the unqualified graphite boat that is corrected multiple times is marked and then unloaded to the first buffer device. The first buffer device buffers the detected and to-be-corrected graphite boats through the stacking function of the first buffer device.

[0124] The first buffer device cooperates with the second buffer device to buffer the graphite boats during the tightness and detection processes, ensures the smoothness of the tightness and detection processes, and always makes the tightness correction device and the detection device work.

[0125] The whole process is highly automated, which greatly improves the efficiency of graphite boat correction. The overall structure is compact, and the detection and correction are performed synchronously, which further improves the correction efficiency.

[0126] The working process of the above carrying device is usually serial, that is, the carrying device transfers the graphite boat from the previous process to the temporary storage device, and then transfers the graphite boat to the next process after the calibration is completed. This serial working mode has obvious bottlenecks: the carrying device needs to frequently go back and forth during the transfer process, resulting in low equipment utilization.

[0127] Therefore, as in the scheme in Embodiment 1 above, in order to reduce the equipment waiting time and improve the equipment utilization, one carrying device and one buffer device are added on the basis of one carrying device and two buffer devices. The improved scheme can significantly improve the transfer efficiency of the graphite boat and the temporary storage capacity through the parallel working mode of the double carrying devices and the temporary storage devices. Specifically, the newly added carrying device can work cooperatively with the original carrying device and be responsible for the transfer of the graphite boat between different processes, thereby reducing the equipment waiting time and improving the equipment utilization. At the same time, the newly added temporary storage device can store more graphite boats, providing more buffer space for calibration and subsequent processes, improving the production capacity, and also enhancing the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0128] The above-described embodiments are merely preferred specific embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any simple change or equivalent replacement of the technical solutions that can be obviously obtained by those skilled in the art within the technical range disclosed by the present application shall all fall within the protection scope of the present application.
