The furnace door conveying mechanism can timely transport the next batch of products to the furnace door closing mechanism, so that the furnace door closing mechanism can timely send the next batch of products into the cavity and close the furnace opening for coating, which improves the transportation efficiency of the products, improves the coating efficiency, and thus improves the productivity of the coating device.
[0031] The specific structure of the coating device will be described below in combination with embodiments.
[0032] FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a coating device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the coating device 10 comprises a cavity 100, a furnace door 200, at least one furnace door conveying mechanism 350, and a furnace door closing mechanism 400. The cavity 100 has a furnace opening 110 facing downward, and is configured to coat products. The furnace door 200 is configured to carry products and can close the furnace opening 110. The furnace door conveying mechanism 350 is configured to buffer or transport the furnace door 200 loaded with products, or to buffer and transport the furnace door 200 loaded with products. The furnace door closing mechanism 400 is arranged below the furnace opening 110, can be connected to each furnace door conveying mechanism 350, and is configured to receive the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products transported by the at least one furnace door conveying mechanism 350, and to carry the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products upward to close the furnace door 200 with the furnace opening 110, and to carry the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products downward to separate the furnace door 200 from the furnace opening 110, and to interface with the at least one furnace door conveying mechanism 350 to transport the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products.
[0033] The coating device 10 is provided with at least one furnace door conveying mechanism 350, and is cooperated with the furnace door closing mechanism 400 and the direction of the furnace opening 110, so that after the coating of the previous batch of products is completed, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 can open the furnace opening 110 and transport the previous batch of products out of the cavity 100, and interface with one furnace door conveying mechanism 350 to transport the previous batch of products by the furnace door conveying mechanism 350. The furnace door conveying mechanism 350 can timely transport the next batch of products to the furnace door closing mechanism 400, so that the furnace door closing mechanism 400 can timely transport the next batch of products into the cavity 100 and close the furnace opening 110 for coating, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the products, improving the coating efficiency, and thus improving the production capacity of the coating device.
[0034] The products can be silicon wafers, wafers, solar panels, glass substrates, etc. For example, the products can be silicon wafers with sections, and the coating device 10 can passivate the sections of the silicon wafers with sections.
[0035] The shape of the cavity 100 can be rectangular or cylindrical, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the cavity 100. The shape of the furnace door 200 can be rectangular or circular, as long as the furnace door 200 can carry products and close the furnace opening 110, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit the shape of the cavity 100.
[0036] In some embodiments, the shape of the cavity 100 comprises a cuboid, and the horizontal cross-sectional shape of the furnace door 200 comprises a rectangle. The cavity 100 is generally in a horizontal position, and a plurality of furnace tubes are stacked in the cavity 100. The furnace tubes are made of quartz, which is easy to break. The furnace tubes serve as reaction cavities and are cylindrical due to process limitations. The number and size of the furnace tubes are limited due to space limitations in the factory. The number of products that can be accommodated by the cavity 100 is limited. The shapes of the products or the carriers 900 containing the products are mostly rectangular. Therefore, compared with the cylindrical furnace tubes, the cuboid cavity 100 can accommodate more products in the same space, thereby further improving the production capacity of the coating device 10. In addition, the cuboid cavity 100 facilitates the vertical arrangement or side-by-side arrangement of the coating device 10, thereby saving the space occupied by the coating device 10. Therefore, when the number of coating devices 10 is large, the plurality of coating devices 10 are arranged vertically and / or side by side to improve the production efficiency of the coating device 10.
[0037] The furnace door conveying mechanism 350 can be a conveyor line, which can include a first power source, a first transmission assembly, and a first conveyor belt. The first power source drives the first transmission assembly to move, and the first transmission assembly carries the first conveyor belt to move, so that the first conveyor belt transports the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products. The first power source can be a motor, an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or the like. The first transmission assembly can be a roller, a pulley, a synchronous wheel, a gear, or the like. The first conveyor belt can be a belt, a mesh belt, a synchronous belt, or the like.
[0038] The furnace door closing mechanism 400 can include a conveyor line and a first lifting device located below the conveyor mechanism. Illustratively, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 can include a second power source, a second transmission assembly, and a second conveyor belt. The second power source drives the second transmission assembly to move, and the second transmission assembly carries the second conveyor belt to move, so that the second conveyor belt transports the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products. The second power source can be a motor, an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or the like. The second transmission assembly can be a roller, a pulley, a synchronous wheel, a gear, or the like. The second conveyor belt can be a belt, a mesh belt, a synchronous belt, or the like. Illustratively, the first lifting device is arranged below the conveyor line and connected with the conveyor line to drive the conveyor line to rise, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products on the second conveyor belt is closed with the furnace port 110, or the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products on the second conveyor belt is lowered, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products on the second conveyor belt is separated from the furnace port 110.
[0039] The coating device 10 further includes a pump device 1900 connected with the cavity 100 and configured to supply reaction gas into the cavity 100 for coating the products in the cavity 100.
[0040] The products are contained in the carrier 900, and the carrier 900 is provided with an opening 901, and the reaction gas enters the carrier 900 from the opening 901 in the cavity 100 to coat the products in the carrier 900.
[0041] In some embodiments, the number of furnace door conveying mechanisms 350 is multiple, and the multiple furnace door conveying mechanisms 350 are arranged at different vertical positions. When the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is lifted to different preset positions, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 can be located at the same horizontal plane as one of the furnace door conveying mechanisms 350.
[0042] For example, continuing to refer to FIG. 1, the number of furnace door conveying mechanisms 350 is two, which are a first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and a second furnace door conveying mechanism 500. The first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 can be arranged on the same side of the furnace door closing mechanism 400, and the pump device 1900 is arranged on the other side of the furnace door closing mechanism 400.
[0043] For example, the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 can also be arranged on different sides of the furnace door closing mechanism 400. For example, the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 are arranged on opposite sides of the furnace door closing mechanism 400. For another example, the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 are arranged on adjacent sides of the furnace door closing mechanism 400.
[0044] The first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products in the horizontal direction, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products is conveyed by the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 to the furnace door closing mechanism 400. The furnace door closing mechanism 400 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products in the horizontal direction, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with uncoated products is located below the furnace opening 110. The furnace door closing mechanism 400 is lifted, so that the uncoated products loaded on the furnace door 200 enter the cavity 100, and the furnace door 200 is closed with the furnace opening 110, so that the cavity 100 is in a sealed state, and the products in the sealed cavity 100 are coated.
[0045] After the coating is completed, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is lowered, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products is separated from the furnace opening 110, and the coated products loaded on the furnace door 200 exit the cavity 100, and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 is docked. The furnace door closing mechanism 400 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products in the horizontal direction, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with coated products is conveyed by the furnace door closing mechanism 400 to the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500.
[0046] Exemplarily, the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 is located below or above the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500. When the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is lifted to the first preset position, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is at the same horizontal plane as the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300, and when the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is lifted to the second preset position, the furnace door closing mechanism 400 is at the same horizontal plane as the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500. Thus, the arrangement of the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 can save space, thereby facilitating the improvement of the production capacity of the coating device 10 in a limited space.
[0047] The first preset position can be a position of the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 when the distance between the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the ground is the first preset distance. The first preset position and the first preset distance can be determined according to actual needs, and the disclosure is not specifically limited.
[0048] The second preset position can be a position of the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 when the distance between the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 and the ground is the second preset distance. The second preset position and the second preset distance can be determined according to actual needs, and the disclosure is not specifically limited.
[0049] When the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 is located below the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500, the first preset position is below the second preset position. When the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 is located above the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500, the first preset position is above the second preset position.

The loading and unloading device 700 is configured to load the uncoated product into the furnace door 200 carried by the loading and unloading mechanism 600, or unload the coated product from the furnace door 200 carried by the loading and unloading mechanism 600. When the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is lifted to different preset loading positions, the loading and unloading device 700 loads the uncoated product into the furnace door 200 carried by the loading and unloading mechanism 600, and the loading and unloading mechanism 600 conveys the furnace door 200 loaded with the uncoated product to different furnace door conveying mechanisms 350. When the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is lifted to different preset unloading positions, different furnace door conveying mechanisms 350 convey the furnace door 200 loaded with the coated product to the loading and unloading mechanism 600. Through automatic loading and unloading, the loading and unloading efficiency is improved, thereby improving the production efficiency of the coating device 10.

When the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is lifted to the third preset position, the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is at the same horizontal plane as the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300, and the loading and unloading mechanism 600 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with the uncoated product in the horizontal direction, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with the uncoated product is conveyed from the loading and unloading mechanism 600 to the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300. When the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is lifted to the fourth preset position, the loading and unloading mechanism 600 is at the same horizontal plane as the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500, and the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with the coated product in the horizontal direction and away from the furnace door closing mechanism 400, so that the furnace door 200 loaded with the coated product is conveyed from the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 to the loading and unloading mechanism 600, and the loading and unloading mechanism 600 transports the furnace door 200 loaded with the coated product in the horizontal direction and away from the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500. The third preset position is the preset loading position, and the fourth preset position is the preset unloading position.
[0053] The third preset position can be the position of the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 when the distance between the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 and the ground is the first preset distance. The third preset position and the first preset distance can be determined according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not make specific limitations.
[0054] The fourth preset position can be the position of the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 when the distance between the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500 and the ground is the second preset distance. The fourth preset position and the second preset distance can be determined according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not make specific limitations.
[0055] When the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 is located below the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500, the third preset position is located below the fourth preset position. When the first furnace door conveying mechanism 300 is located above the second furnace door conveying mechanism 500, the third preset position is located above the fourth preset position.
[0056] The loading and unloading mechanism 600 can include a conveyor line and a second lifting device.

The first horizontal direction X1 is the same as the horizontal moving direction of the furnace door 200 on the loading and unloading mechanism 600, and the second horizontal direction X2 is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction X1. The gripper 720 is connected to the moving module assembly 710 and moves with the moving module assembly 710, and is configured to grasp or place products.
