Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a flange part easily stickable close to a vacuum vessel by arranging packing doubly, making the outer packing higher in its protuberant height as compared with the inner packing, and utilizing the extent of external pressure at time of evacuation. CONSTITUTION:A vacuum sealing O-ring 5 and a hollow packing 6, whose protuberant height is adjustable by fluid pressure, both are installed in space between a body flange 3 of a vacuum vessel 1 and a cover flange 4 of a cover 2. With this constitution, a clearance between the body flange 3 and the cover flange 4 is large enough, therefore even if there is such a state that the O-ring 5 and the cover flange 4 is not stuck close to each other, if the inside of the vacuum vessel 1 is gradually evacuating, pressure in the vessel 1 is gradually lowered if air is somewhat leaked in the vessel 1 from a part of the hollow packing 6, so the cover flange 4 is gradually moving by action of external pressure, and finally it crushes the O-ring 5, finishing the vacuum seal. Accordingly, supposing that these flanges 3, 4 are deformed and bent due to their own weight or the like, coherence for the vacuum seal can be done.

The conventional structure exhibits its performance as a vacuum flange structure by sandwiching a %0 ring or similar between the flange faces and squeezing it, but as the 7 lange becomes larger, the 7 lange itself bends under its own weight. In addition, the deformation was large 4, and the large size made it difficult to ensure machining accuracy.

[Fill to be Solved by the Invention] The above-mentioned conventional technology does not require any internal or external O2 gas to be removed before evacuation.
However, when the flange becomes large, the flange may be deflected or deformed due to its own weight, and the machining accuracy of the flange surface may be affected.
There was a drawback that it became difficult to make close contact between the 0 ring and the opposing 7 lunge around the entire circumference of the 7 ring.

In order to achieve the above purpose, the gaskets are arranged in double layers, the inner gasket is for vacuum sealing, and the outer gasket has a larger protrusion height than the inner gasket to apply fluid pressure to the inside. Therefore, use one that can easily have a protrusion height of 9 degrees. In other words, even if the flange surface of the main body is greatly deformed and the machining accuracy is poor, by applying fluid pressure to the outer packing and making the protrusion vibrate, it will fit and adhere to the mating flange, and the amount of gas leaking from the outer packing will be reduced. If the evacuation ability of the vacuum evacuation device is superior, the sealing member will strongly adhere to the 7th ring part due to the external pressure, and the purpose will be achieved. The relationship with the attracted force F is F=! -D2P.

A cover flange 4 is provided on the cover 2 side. An O-ring 5 for vacuum sealing is provided between the flange 3 of the main body 7 and the flange 4 of the cover 7, and the second O-ring is used in close contact between the flange 3 of the main body 7 and the flange 4 of the cover 7.

If the container is a small diameter container, the O-ring can be tightly attached using bolts 8, etc., but if the container is a large diameter container, the flange 3 of the main body 7 and the cover flange surface of the cover flange 4 may deform due to their own weight, etc. Due to its large diameter, it is heavy, and it is difficult to handle, leaving a gap in the surface. FIG. 4 shows this state. In order to tighten the bolts 8 in order to eliminate the gap in the case of 20-sided deafness, a large number of bolts 8 are required, and the main body flanone 3 and the cover 7
Correcting the deformation of the lunge 4 with the bolt 8 requires a tremendous tightening force, which is extremely difficult.

Here, in order to solve this problem, if a hollow gasket 6 is used as a sealing member that can adjust the height of the protrusion using fluid pressure, the gap between the main body 7 flange 3 and the cover flange 4 will be large, and the gap between the O-ring 5 and the cover 7 flange will be large. Even if the hollow packing 6 and the cover flange 4 are not in close contact with each other, the hollow packing 6 and the cover flange 4 can be easily brought into close contact with each other. If the inside of the vacuum container 4 is gradually evacuated in this state, even if some air leaks into the vacuum container 1 from the hollow gasket 6, the exhaust capacity of the vacuum exhaust device will outweigh the amount of gas leaking. As the pressure inside the vacuum container 1 gradually decreases, external pressure acts on the cover flange 4 side, and the entire cover 7 flange 4 gradually moves so as to come into close contact with the main body flange 3 side. Finally, the O-ring 5 is crushed to complete the vacuum seal. The state is shown in FIG.
