[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, an evaporation boat for a vacuum coating machine includes a melting tank 1. An assembly frame 4 is provided on the upper side of the melting tank 1. A baffle plate 5 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the surface of the assembly frame 4. Evaporation holes 6 are evenly distributed on the surface of the baffle plate 5. Heating elements 7 are evenly distributed and fixedly installed on the lower surface of the baffle plate 5 at the gaps between the evaporation holes 6. The combined plate of the assembly frame 4 and the baffle plate 5 can cover the upper opening of the melting tank 1.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the molten aluminum evaporates and rises, and will adhere to the surface of the workpiece through the evaporation hole 6, thereby coating the workpiece.

[0023] The baffle plate 5 blocks the upper opening of the entire melting tank 1 to prevent the solution from boiling and splashing. It also prevents excess aluminum liquid from dripping onto the surface of the workpiece into the melting tank 1, which would cause the boiling solution to splash.

[0024] The dripping aluminum solution on the surface of the barrier plate 5 will be heated by the heating element 7 and thus evaporated and reused.

[0025] Furthermore, slots 2 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the upper surface of the melting tank 1, and insert blocks 3 are inserted and installed on the inner surface of the slots 2.

[0026] The upper end of the insert 3 is fixedly connected to the assembly frame 4, and the height of the insert 3 is greater than the depth of the slot 2;

[0027] The inner surface of the melting tank 1 is set as inclined surfaces on the left and right sides, and the opening of the melting tank 1 is set as feed inlets on the left and right sides.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the barrier plate 5 can be installed with the melting tank 1 by inserting the plug 3 into the slot 2;

[0029] When the insert 3 is fully inserted into the slot 2, it can also raise the baffle plate 5 to a certain height, without directly and completely closing the opening of the melting tank 1, thus ensuring that the feed port can continuously feed material into the melting tank 1.

[0030] Furthermore, the outer surface of the melting tank 1 is covered with a heating tank 8, and the inner surface shape of the heating tank 8 matches the shape of the melting tank 1.

[0031] The depth of the tank body of the dissolving tank 1 is 1-2 mm, and the depth of the tank body of the heating tank 8 is 3-4 mm.

[0032] By using the above technical scheme, the dissolving tank 1 is not heated by itself, but is externally assisted by the heating tank 8, which effectively prevents the direct heating of the dissolving tank 1 from accelerating the corrosion speed of the boat body, and the external auxiliary heating mode can synchronously heat the whole dissolving tank 1, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the temperature of the whole boat body.

[0033] Working principle: when using the evaporation boat of the vacuum coating machine, first, the plate body composed of the assembly frame 4 and the blocking plate 5 is combined, the blocking plate 5 is covered on the upper side of the dissolving tank 1 by inserting the block 3 into the slot 2, then the dissolving tank 1 is put into the heating tank 8, the cable bundle delivers the current value electrode 9, the heating tank 8 is heated by the resistance value, the dissolving tank 1 is uniformly heated, the coating material is sent into the inside through the feed port on both sides of the dissolving tank 1, heated and melted, gasified and rising, the steam passes through the evaporation hole 6 and rises, adheres to the surface of the workpiece, and then the workpiece is coated, the blocking plate 5 blocks the upper opening of the whole dissolving tank 1, avoids the boiling and splashing of the solution, and also avoids the falling of the excess aluminum solution on the surface of the workpiece into the dissolving tank 1, which causes the boiling solution to splash, the falling aluminum solution on the surface of the blocking plate 5 is heated by the heating piece 7 and then evaporates upward to coat the workpiece, thereby fully and completely using the coating material, which is the working principle of the evaporation boat of the vacuum coating machine.
