[0033] Reference Figure 1 One embodiment of this utility model provides: a groove sinking processing device for hollow quartz cylinders, comprising:

[0034] The split furnace body consists of an upper furnace body 1 and a lower furnace body 2. The bottom of the lower furnace body 2 is equipped with a lifting device, which can drive the lower furnace body 2 to rise and fall and close with the upper furnace body 1 to form a sealed cavity.

[0035] Temperature control unit 3 is located on the inner wall of the sealed cavity and is used to achieve gradient temperature control with a temperature control accuracy of ±1℃.

[0036] Mold 4 is fixed in the middle of the cavity by high temperature resistant bracket 9, and the bottom of mold 4 is connected to a multi-channel gas distribution system;

[0037] The evacuation system includes an evacuation pipe 5 and a mechanical pump and a Roots pump connected in sequence. The evacuation pipe 5 is connected to the side wall of the lower furnace body 2 and can evacuate the cavity pressure to a primary vacuum of less than 30 mbar, then evacuate to the working vacuum and maintain the pressure.

[0038] The gas pipeline system, including forming gas pipeline 6 and protective gas pipeline 7, is connected to the gas distribution system at the bottom of the mold 4. Forming gas pipeline 6 is equipped with a precision pressure regulating device. Protective gas pipeline 7 can be supplied with gas up to a pressure of 980 mbar and then continue to be pressurized to the critical atmospheric pressure, with an intake control value ≥30 SLMP. The lifting device for the lower furnace body 2 is a hydraulic push rod. When closed, a high-temperature resistant sealing gasket is provided at the joint between the upper furnace body 1 and the lower furnace body 2. The temperature control unit 3 uses a spirally arranged nickel-chromium alloy resistance band, fixed by insulating ceramic, and can preset a gradient temperature curve. When the material reaches the quartz transformation temperature... The molding gas pipeline 6 is triggered to open. The precision pressure regulating device of the molding gas pipeline 6 and the PLC control system 10 form a closed-loop control. By controlling the inlet pressure, the softened material undergoes plastic deformation. The mold 4 is made of high-purity graphite material, and its cavity shape is adapted to the hollow quartz cylinder finished product. The protective gas pipeline 7 is equipped with a flow control valve, which can introduce nitrogen or inert gas. The high-temperature resistant bracket 9 is made of corundum material, and the contact part with the mold 4 is equipped with a heat insulation pad. The height of the bracket is adjustable. The PLC control system 10 integrates a touch screen, which can preset and store temperature-pressure linkage parameters and has fault alarm and emergency shutdown functions.

[0039] Working principle: When the device is working, the lower furnace body 2 is first lowered by the lifting device at the bottom of the lower furnace body 2, and the mold 4 is sent in after being fixed by the high temperature resistant bracket 9. Then the upper furnace body 1 and the lower furnace body 2 are closed to form a sealed cavity. The air extraction system starts the mechanical pump and the Roots pump in sequence through the air extraction pipe 5, first pumping the cavity to a primary vacuum of less than 30 mbar, and then pumping to the working vacuum and holding pressure. Then the protective gas pipe 7 is filled with gas to 980 mbar and then continues to be filled to the critical atmospheric pressure, with the air intake control ≥30 SLMP. The temperature control unit 3 controls the temperature with an accuracy of ±1℃ according to the gradient temperature curve. When the material reaches the quartz transformation temperature, the precision pressure regulating device of the forming gas pipe 6 controls the air intake pressure, so that the softened material is plastically deformed to form a hollow structure. The entire process is controlled by the PLC control system 10 to control the operation of each component.
