[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-5This embodiment provides a vacuum chamber with a sealing valve, including a base 1 and a vacuum chamber 2. The upper end face of the base 1 is provided with an adjustment groove. An adjustment screw 11 is rotatably mounted on the right end face of the adjustment groove via a bearing. An adjustment motor 12 is mounted on the left end face of the adjustment screw 11. A first slider is symmetrically mounted on the outer side wall of the adjustment screw 11. A vacuum chamber 2 is mounted on the upper end face of the first slider. A fixed tube 13 is mounted on the inner end of the vacuum chamber 2. An adjustment tube 14 is mounted on the inner end of the fixed tube 13 via a sliding fit. A first valve 15 is mounted on the outer side wall of the adjustment tube 14. A connecting rod is mounted on the bottom of the outer side wall of the adjustment tube 14. During operation, the left and right threads of the adjustment screw 11 are symmetrical but opposite in direction. The adjustment motor 12 starts, driving the adjustment screw 11 to rotate, thereby moving the vacuum chamber 2 inward, shortening the distance between the vacuum chambers 2, shortening the gas flow time, and improving production efficiency. The first valve 15 opens, enabling exhaust treatment of multiple vacuum chambers 2.

[0020] The upper end face of the vacuum chamber 2 is equipped with an upper tube 16, a connecting hose 17 is installed on the upper end face of the upper tube 16, a second valve 18 is installed on the outer side wall of the upper tube 16, a front tube 19 is installed at the front end of the outer side wall of the vacuum chamber 2, and a third valve 21 is installed on the outer side wall of the front tube 19. During operation, the third valve 21 is opened, and gas enters through the front tube 19. The second valve 18 is opened, and gas is discharged through the upper tube 16 and then enters the connecting hose 17.

[0021] A collar 22 is installed on the outer wall of the connecting hose 17, and a top seat 23 is installed on the inner end of the collar 22. A connecting frame is symmetrically installed on the front and rear ends of the top seat 23. Multiple balls 24 are installed on the inner wall of the collar 22 along its circumferential direction. During operation, when the vacuum chamber 2 moves inward and outward, the connecting hose 17 slides up and down in the collar 22. The use of the ball 24 structure reduces the wear on the outer wall of the connecting hose 17 and ensures the service life of the device. The front of the front tube 19 is equipped with a hose to ensure the stability of the movement of the vacuum chamber 2.

[0022] A fixing rod 25 is installed on the upper end of the outer wall of the fixing tube 13. The upper end face of the fixing rod 25 is connected to the bottom of the top seat 23 by a sliding fit. During operation, the fixing rod 25 plays a role in limiting and fixing the fixing tube 13, ensuring the stability of the fixing tube 13 when gas flows.

[0023] The base 1 has symmetrically installed side seats 26 on the front and back of the upper end. The inner end of the side seat 26 is connected to the outer wall of the vacuum chamber 2 by a sliding fit. During operation, the side seat 26 structure is used to ensure the stability of the vacuum chamber 2 when moving left and right.

[0024] In actual operation, the adjusting screw 11 has symmetrical threads on the left and right sides with opposite directions. The adjusting motor 12 starts and drives the adjusting screw 11 to rotate, thereby moving the vacuum chamber 2 inward, shortening the distance between the vacuum chambers 2, shortening the gas flow time, and improving production efficiency. The first gate valve 15 opens, enabling exhaust treatment of multiple vacuum chambers 2.
