Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of copper target smelting equipment, and specifically to a semiconductor target smelting and purification device. Background Technology

[0002] Copper sputtering targets are core materials for sputtering coatings in semiconductors, flat panel displays, photovoltaics, and other fields. Their purity and internal structure directly affect the coating quality. Copper sputtering target purification and smelting equipment is a key piece of equipment for achieving the preparation of high-purity copper sputtering targets. Its core design is to remove metallic impurities, gaseous impurities, and non-metallic inclusions from the raw materials through a synergistic effect of smelting and purification, and to obtain copper billets with uniform composition and dense structure.

[0003] In related technologies, copper target purification equipment typically consists of a raw material pretreatment system, a smelting system, a purification system, an ingot casting system, and finally, qualified copper material.

[0004] In remelting systems, scrap copper targets are often used for smelting and purification to save resources. By putting the scrap copper targets into the smelting furnace, many impurities will float on the surface of the molten copper during smelting. In the existing technology, manual retrieval is often used to clean the impurities on the surface of the molten copper. This method not only increases the risk of injury to operators, but is also inefficient. To solve the above problems, a semiconductor target smelting and purification device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a semiconductor target melting and purification device. The present invention adjusts the position of the cleaning tank and the melting furnace body by means of a moving device and an electric telescopic rod. Then, by starting the motor, the pawl drives the feed to rotate, which in turn drives the ratchet to rotate the shaft and the cleaning tank, thereby completing the receiving action. This cleans the impurities floating on the top of the melting furnace body. Finally, the cleaning tank is controlled to rotate so that the collected waste residue is put into the waste box to complete the operation. This reduces the risk of injury to the operator and improves the purification efficiency.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a semiconductor target melting and purification device, including a movable device installed at the bottom of the melting furnace body, a support frame installed on both sides of the movable device, a support platform slidably installed on the top of the support frame, an opening in the middle of the support platform, two sliding devices slidably installed in the opening, a support rod fixedly installed at the bottom of each sliding device, and a cleaning groove movably installed between the bottoms of the support rods.

[0007] The cleaning groove is arc-shaped, and a rotating shaft is provided at both ends of the cleaning groove. The rotating shaft is used to rotate the cleaning groove. A sealing shell is provided on the side of each rotating shaft away from the center of the cleaning groove. The sealing shell is used to seal components such as ratchet and pawl.

[0008] Each sealed housing contains a ratchet that is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. The ratchet is connected to a pawl, and a pawl is engaged at the end of the ratchet away from the rotating shaft. The pawl, in conjunction with the ratchet, is used to change the rotation direction of the motor shaft. A connecting shaft is rotatably mounted on the pawl, which is used to connect the output shaft of the motor to the pawl. Thus, when the output shaft of the motor rotates, the ratchet and the pawl work synchronously. A motor is mounted on the top of the connecting shaft, which drives the ratchet to rotate.

[0009] A slide rail is symmetrically embedded in the opening. The slide rail is used for the movement of the slider. The sliding device includes two sliders that are slidably disposed between the slide rails. The sliders are used to connect the support rod to the support platform. A support rod is fixedly disposed at the bottom of each slider. The support rod is used to connect the slider to the cleaning groove. A connecting block is disposed at the top of each slider. The connecting block is used to install the linkage plate. A linkage plate is fixedly disposed between the tops of the connecting blocks. The linkage plate is used to connect the two connecting blocks and the two support rods into one unit.

[0010] One of the connecting blocks has an electric push rod on the side furthest from the center of the cleaning tank. The electric push rod is used to move the sliding device. The other connecting block has a driven telescopic rod on the side furthest from the center of the cleaning tank. The driven telescopic rod is used to adjust the position of the sliding device on the opening. The drive end of the electric push rod is mounted on the support platform, thereby connecting the electric push rod to the support platform. A positioning block is provided at the end of the driven telescopic rod furthest from the connecting block. The positioning block is used to fix the driven telescopic rod and also to connect the driven telescopic rod to the support platform. The positioning block is fixed on the support platform.

[0011] The support frame includes two symmetrically arranged fixed vertical plates for supporting the support platform. Each fixed vertical plate has a slide rail at its top, and a movable block is slidably mounted on each slide rail. The movable block is used to connect the support platform to the fixed vertical plate. Each movable block is fixed to the support platform on the same side. An electric telescopic rod is provided at one end of each slide rail on the same side. The electric telescopic rod is used to move the movable block, thereby moving the support platform and the components installed on it. Each electric push rod is connected to the movable block on the same side.

[0012] A waste bin is installed on the opposite side of the mobile device, which is used to collect waste residue in the cleaning tank.

[0013] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] 1. The position of the cleaning trough and the smelting furnace body is adjusted by the moving device and electric telescopic rod. Then, the motor is started to make the pawl drive the feed to rotate, which in turn drives the ratchet to rotate the shaft and the cleaning trough to complete the receiving action. This cleans the impurities floating on the top of the smelting furnace body. Then, the cleaning trough is rotated to put the collected waste slag into the waste box to complete the operation. This reduces the risk of injury to the operator and improves the purification efficiency.

[0015] 2. The electric push rod is used to move the sliding device, and the driven telescopic rod is used to adjust the position of the sliding device on the opening. The drive end of the electric push rod is mounted on the support platform by bolts, thereby connecting the electric push rod to the support platform.
