Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of continuous sputtering production lines, specifically to a continuous sputtering production line for steel strips with composite film layers. Background Technology

[0002] Vacuum coating is mainly based on the principles of physical vapor deposition and chemical vapor deposition. In physical vapor deposition, physical processes such as evaporation and sputtering transform the coating material from a solid state into gaseous atoms or molecules, which then move and deposit on the surface of the substrate in a vacuum environment.

[0003] Existing continuous sputtering production lines for steel strips with composite films use a sputtering machine to sputter the surface of the steel strip, achieving continuous coating while the steel strip is in motion. Although the above method can achieve the sputtering effect on the steel strip, the steel strip is very hot after sputtering, requiring cooling treatment. The single water cooling method results in a slow cooling rate for the steel strip, requiring a long time to cool it down, which leads to slow processing efficiency of the steel strip.

[0024] 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.

[0025] like Figures 1-5As shown, the continuous sputtering production line for steel strip with a composite film layer in this embodiment includes a workbench 2. A cleaning box 1 is installed on one side of the top of the workbench 2. A sputtering box 4 is installed on one side of the cleaning box 1. A cooling box 5 is installed on one side of the sputtering box 4. Sealed connection boxes 3 are installed between the cleaning box 1 and the sputtering box 4, and between the sputtering box 4 and the cooling box 5. The design of the sealed connection boxes 3 allows the two ends of the sputtering box 4 to be connected to the cleaning box 1 and the cooling box 5, while effectively avoiding direct contact with the outside air, which would affect the sputtering quality. A water tank 21 is installed at the bottom of the cleaning box 1. A pressure roller 8 is installed on one side of the water tank 21, and a brush roller 18 is installed on one side of the pressure roller 8. The design of the brush roller 18 allows for flexible brushing of the steel strip, avoiding damage to the composite film on the surface of the steel strip. Two spray pipes 7 are installed on one side of the top of the water tank 21. A hot air blower 6 is fixed on one side of the spray pipes 7, and a sponge cleaning roller 10 is installed on one side of the hot air blower 6. A vacuum pump 13 is installed at the bottom of the sputtering box 4. Two tension rollers 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the sputtering box 4. Three sputtering instruments 12 are arranged in the middle of the top of the sputtering box 4. Two water-cooled rollers 22 are arranged on one side of the cooling box 5. Two liquid-cooled rollers 15 are installed on one side of the water-cooled rollers 22. A circulating fan 17 is fixed in the middle of the bottom of the cooling box 5. Through the design of the water-cooled rollers 22 and liquid-cooled rollers 15 in the cooling box 5, the steel strip can be cooled by water first and then by liquid, which increases the heat dissipation efficiency and effectively ensures the heat conduction effect of the device on the steel strip. At the same time, with the design of the circulating fan 17, when the steel strip passes through the water-cooled rollers 22 and liquid-cooled rollers 15 in sequence, the heat in the cooling box 5 can be discharged, and the cold air in the cooling box 5 can be evenly distributed, which effectively ensures the cooling effect of the device on the steel plate. Four guide rollers 16 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sputtering box 4 and both sides of the cooling box 5 to facilitate the horizontal conveying of the steel strip.

[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, two electric slide rails 14 are symmetrically installed on the two inner side walls of the sealed connection box 3. Each electric slide rail 14 is connected to a conveying roller 9 through its own sliding block. Another conveying roller 9 is installed at the lower end of the electric slide rail 14.

[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, a rotating shaft 19 is installed at one end of each of the washing roller 18, guide roller 16, tension roller 11, water-cooled roller 22, and liquid-cooled roller 15. A motor 20 is connected to one side of the rotating shaft 19. The motor 20 drives the rotating shaft 19 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the washing roller 18, guide roller 16, tension roller 11, water-cooled roller 22, and liquid-cooled roller 15.

[0028] like Figures 1-5As shown, in this embodiment, the electric slide rail 14 is screwed to the sealed connection box 3, one of the conveying rollers 9 is rotatably connected to the sliding block of the electric slide rail 14, and the other conveying roller 9 is rotatably connected to the sealed connection box 3. The motor 20 drives the conveying roller 9 to rotate, realizing the movement of the steel strip during sputtering, thereby realizing the continuous sputtering of the device.

[0029] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the cleaning tank 1, the sputtering tank 4, and the cooling tank 5 are all screwed to the workbench 2. The pressure roller 8 and the brushing roller 18 are rotatably connected to the water tank 21. The spray pipe 7 and the hot air blower 6 are all screwed to the cleaning tank 1. The spray pipe 7 needs to be connected to an external water supply device to achieve rapid spraying and cleaning of the cleaning liquid remaining on the surface of the steel strip. The brushing roller 18 can perform flexible brushing on the surface of the steel strip to prevent impurities from sticking to the surface of the steel strip. The design of the pressure roller 8 allows the steel strip to be completely immersed in the cleaning liquid.

[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the sponge cleaning roller 10 is rotatably connected to the cleaning box 1, the sputtering instrument 12 is plugged into the sputtering box 4, the tension roller 11 is rotatably connected to the sputtering box 4, and the vacuum pump 13 is screwed into the sputtering box 4. The design of the sponge cleaning roller 10 facilitates the adsorption and cleaning of residual water droplets on the surface of the steel strip. The sputtering instrument 12 can achieve continuous sputtering of the steel strip, realizing uniform coating on the surface of the steel strip. The design of the tension roller 11 can tension and transport the steel strip, ensuring the sputtering effect of the device on the steel strip.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, both the water-cooled roller 22 and the liquid-cooled roller 15 are rotatably connected to the cooling box 5. The water-cooled roller 22 and the liquid-cooled roller 15 are staggered. The circulating fan 17 is screwed to the cooling box 5. The water-cooled roller 22 and the liquid-cooled roller 15 have different thermal conductivity. The liquid-cooled roller 15 uses a refrigerant with higher thermal conductivity, which increases the thermal conductivity. With the staggered distribution of the two water-cooled rollers 22 and the two liquid-cooled rollers 15, heat is dissipated, and the surface of the steel strip has cooling gaps. At the same time, with the design of the circulating fan 17, the contact cooling between the steel strip and the cold air can be effectively guaranteed.

[0032] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows: When using the device, it needs to be placed in an appropriate position and connected to an external power supply. The steel strip to be sputtered is passed through the cleaning tank 1, the sputtering tank 4, and the cooling tank 5 in sequence. An appropriate amount of cleaning solution is added to the water tank 21. The steel strip passes through the spray pipe 7, the hot air blower 6, and the sponge cleaning roller 10 from the bottom end of the pressure roller 8 and the brush roller 18. In the water tank 21, the motor 20 drives the brush roller 18 on the rotating shaft 19 to brush and clean the surface of the steel strip. Surface grease and impurities stick to the surface of the steel strip. At the same time, the motor 20 and the spray pipe 7 will rinse the steel strip to prevent cleaning solution from remaining on the surface of the steel strip. Then the hot air blower 6 will dry the water on the surface of the steel strip, and the sponge cleaning roller will also be used. The aligned rollers 10 adsorb the steel strip, ensuring it enters the sputtering box 4 cleanly and dryly. Then, the vacuum pump 13 extracts air from the sputtering box 4. Combined with the design of three sputtering units 12, this effectively ensures the sputtering effect on the steel strip surface after passing through the sputtering box 4. Finally, the steel strip enters the cooling box 5. The design of the water-cooled roller 22 and the liquid-cooled roller 15 enables the steel strip to be cooled by water first and then by liquid, achieving an increasing heat dissipation efficiency and effectively ensuring the heat conduction effect of the device on the steel strip. Simultaneously, the design of the circulating fan 17 ensures the removal of heat from the cooling box 5 as the steel strip passes through the water-cooled roller 22 and the liquid-cooled roller 15, resulting in a uniform distribution of cold air within the cooling box 5 and effectively ensuring the cooling effect of the device on the steel plate.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
