The conveyor belts of each section are preferably conveyed forward at the same conveying speed to guide the fixed tooling 6, and the inward side of each conveyor belt of each section is provided with a plurality of guide pulleys 52. In addition, it should be noted that the distance between two adjacent conveyor belts in front and back should be smaller than the length of the fixed tooling 6 in the front and back direction, so as to ensure that the last conveyor belt can forward convey the fixed tooling 6 before the fixed tooling 6 falls onto the next conveyor belt.
Referring to fig. 3 to 5, before a manufacturer places the fixed tool 6 (see fig. 8) on the transfer mechanism, the controller controls all sealing gates 213, 223, 44 in the five chambers of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, and the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to be in a closed state, and all lifting gates 313, 323, 43 are located at the top dead center to block and seal the corresponding inlets, and at this time, each chamber forms a closed space because the respective inlets and outlets are sealed; the controller also controls the left and right conveyors 511, 512, 513, 514, 515 of the five chambers to drive at the same conveying speed. The producer first controls the sealing shutter 213 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 to open to expose the inlet 211 through the controller, then aligns and places the left flank 64 and the right flank 65 of the fixed tooling 6 from the inlet 211 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 to the left conveyor 511 and the right conveyor in the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, and the fixed tooling 6 having the curved glass 7 fixed thereto is fed into the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 by the left conveyor 511 and the right conveyor to be conveyed toward the outlet 212 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21. After the fixed tooling 6 completely enters the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, the controller controls the sealing gate 213 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 to be closed so as to seal the inlet 211, so that a sealed space is formed inside the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, and at the moment, the controller controls the air pump 214 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 to start and pump out part of the air in the first pre-vacuum chamber 21. Before the fixed tooling 6 reaches the outlet 212 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, the controller controls the sealing gate 223 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 to open backward and outward to expose the inlet 221 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, so that the inlet 221 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 is communicated with the outlet 212 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, and the fixed tooling 6 and the fixed curved glass 7 enter the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 from the outlet 212 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21 through the inlet 221 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 under the conveying of the left conveying belt 511 and the right conveying belt of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, and are driven by the left conveying belt 512 and the right conveying belt of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 to advance towards the outlet 222 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22. After the fixed tooling 6 completely enters the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, the controller controls the sealing gate 223 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 to be closed so as to seal the inlet 221, so that a sealed space is formed inside the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, and at the moment, the controller controls the air pump 224 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 to start and pump most of air in the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, so that conditions are provided for subsequent magnetron sputtering.
Before the fixed tooling 6 arrives, the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 and the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 are pumped by the pumping pumps 314 and 324 under the control of the controller, so that the chambers are as close to vacuum as possible, and the influence of impurities in the air on the subsequent magnetron sputtering coating is avoided. Before the fixed tooling 6 reaches the outlet 222 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, the controller controls the lifting flashboard 313 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to descend and open so as to expose the inlet 311 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, and the inlet 311 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 is communicated with the outlet 222 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22. In this process, the controller controls the air supply pump 315 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 near the inlet 311 to start and continuously supply air (inert gas such as argon) to the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, and controls the air pump 224 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 to keep starting and continuously pump air to the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, so that the air in the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 flows to the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, and the air in the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 is not easy to reversely flow to the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to cause pollution. In other embodiments, the air supply pump 315 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 near the inlet 311 does not supply air, but instead the air pump 314 pumps air, so that after the inlet 311 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 is connected to the outlet 222 of the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, the residual air in the second pre-vacuum chamber 22 is pumped away by the air pump 314 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 even if flowing to the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, and the effect of avoiding pollution can be achieved.
After the fixed tooling 6 and the curved glass 7 completely enter the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, the controller controls the lifting flashboard 313 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to ascend and reset, and the inlet 311 is resealed, so that a sealed space is formed inside the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31. The controller controls the air supply pump 315 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to continuously charge inert gas into the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, after the inert gas is charged in a sufficient amount, the fixed tool 6 and the curved glass 7 are driven by the conveyor belt of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to sequentially pass through four magnetron sputtering devices 316 in the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 from above, and the controller controls the magnetron sputtering devices 316 to perform magnetron sputtering coating on the downward back surface of the curved glass 7 passing by (each magnetron sputtering device 316 sequentially coats the curved glass 7 with a film layer). Similarly, before the fixed tooling 6 reaches the outlet 312 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, the controller controls the lifting gate 323 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 to descend and open to expose the inlet 321 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, so that the inlet 321 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 is communicated with the outlet 312 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31. Because the inert gas used by the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 is different from that used by the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, in the process that the inlet 321 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 is communicated with the outlet 312 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31, the controller controls the air pump 324 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 close to the inlet 321 to start and pump air, and controls the air pump 314 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 to pump air (alternatively, the air pump 315 of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 is used for supplying air and the air pump 324 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 close to the inlet 321 is used for pumping air), so that pollution caused by air flow channeling of the first magnetron sputtering chamber 31 and the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 is avoided. After the fixed tooling 6 and the curved glass 7 completely enter the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, the controller controls the lifting flashboard 323 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 to ascend, reset and reseal the inlet 321, so that a sealed space is formed inside the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, then the controller controls the air supply pump 325 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 to continuously charge inert gas into the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, after the inert gas is filled in a sufficient amount, the fixed tooling 6 and the curved glass 7 are driven by the conveyor belt of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 to sequentially pass through three magnetron sputtering devices 326 in the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 from above, and the controller controls the magnetron sputtering devices 326 to perform magnetron sputtering coating on the downward back surface of the routed curved glass 7.
Before the fixed tooling 6 reaches the outlet 322 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32, the controller controls the lifting flashboard 43 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to descend and open to expose the inlet 41 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4, so that the inlet 41 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 is communicated with the outlet 322 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32. Also, in order to prevent the air of the recovery air chamber 4 from flowing into the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 to cause pollution, the air supply pump 325 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32 near the outlet 322 needs to supply air (or the air pump 324 needs to pump air) while the air pump 45 of the recovery air chamber 4 pumps air during the process of connecting the inlet 41 of the recovery air chamber 4 with the outlet 322 of the second magnetron sputtering chamber 32. After the fixed tooling 6 and the coated curved glass 7 completely enter the recovery air pressure chamber 4, the controller controls the lifting flashboard 43 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to ascend, reset and reseal the inlet 41, so that a sealed space is formed inside the recovery air pressure chamber 4. Since the pumps 214, 224 of the previous pre-vacuum chambers 21, 22 pump most of the air, and the inert gas filled in the magnetron sputtering chamber during the magnetron sputtering process does not completely fill the whole magnetron sputtering chamber, the air pressure in the sealed space of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 is smaller than the normal atmospheric pressure. After the lifting flashboard 43 is lifted and reset, the controller controls the air pump 45 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to stop air suction and controls the air supply pump 46 to start slow air supply, so that the air pressure of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 is slowly recovered to the normal atmospheric pressure, and the defects of cracks and the like when the curved glass 7 directly enters the normal air pressure environment from the negative pressure environment are avoided. After the air pressure of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 is recovered to the normal atmospheric pressure, the controller controls the sealing gate 44 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to open forwards and outwards to expose the outlet 42, the fixed tooling 6 and the coated curved glass 7 are driven by the conveyor belt of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to leave the recovery air pressure chamber 4 from the outlet 42 of the recovery air pressure chamber 4, and the producer can take the fixed tooling 6 from the front of the recovery air pressure chamber 4 to detach the coated curved glass 7 from the fixed tooling 6.
In this embodiment, the left conveyor 511, 512, 513, 514, 515 and the right conveyor of each chamber are all left open (for the fixed tooling 6 to pass through), and the upper and lower parts of the frame body 61 of the fixed tooling 6 are provided with open areas, so that the curved glass 7 fixed on the fixed tooling 6 is exposed from the upward front and the downward back, and the magnetron sputtering devices 316, 326 are arranged at the lower parts of the magnetron sputtering chambers 31, 32, and perform magnetron sputtering coating on the downward back of the curved glass 7. In other embodiments, the magnetron sputtering devices 316 and 326 may be instead arranged at the upper parts of the magnetron sputtering chambers 31 and 32, and the curved glass 7 is subjected to magnetron sputtering coating on the upward front surface; alternatively, magnetron sputtering devices 316 and 326 are arranged at the upper part and the lower part of the magnetron sputtering chambers 31 and 32, and magnetron sputtering coating is carried out on the front surface and the back surface of the curved glass 7 passing by.
In this embodiment, the producer places a fixed fixture 6 with a curved glass 7 fixed to the left and right conveyor belts 511 and 511 of the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, and the fixed fixture 6 is driven by the left and right conveyor belts to be conveyed forward. In other embodiments, a producer can place a plurality of fixing tools 6 at a time according to actual conditions, and the left conveyor belt and the right conveyor belt drive the fixing tools to be conveyed forwards; the left conveyor belt and the right conveyor belt can timely suspend conveying, so that the fixed tools are temporarily suspended in corresponding chambers, and after the air pump, the air supply pump and the magnetron sputtering equipment of the chambers complete relevant procedures, the left conveyor belt and the right conveyor belt drive the fixed tools to convey forwards. Further, in the present embodiment, the first pre-vacuum chamber 21, the second pre-vacuum chamber 22, and the recovery air pressure chamber 4 are provided with sealing gates. In other embodiments, these sealing gates may be replaced by lifting shutters 313, 323 of the magnetron sputtering chambers 31, 32, and the sealing effect of the inlet and outlet can be achieved.
The above-described embodiments are provided for the present invention only and are not intended to limit the scope of patent protection. Insubstantial changes and substitutions can be made by one skilled in the art in light of the teachings of the invention, as yet fall within the scope of the claims.
