Abstract

A cold-cathode ionization gauge which is easily discharged and has a relatively small time lag between the time when it is applied with a high voltage and the time when it is discharged and current starts to flow therein, and has no directionality to be considered in installing an anode, thereby allowing an easy replacement of the anode. The cold-cathode ionization gauge includes a tubular cathode arranged in a space which communicates with a chamber for measuring the pressure, a rod-like anode disposed in the internal space of the tubular cathode, and magnetic means which form a magnetic field nearly perpendicular to an electric field between the anode and the cathode and cause discharge between the anode and the cathode. The anode is formed with a screw portion in the end part and is disposed inside the space of the tube of the cathode.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to cold cathode ionization vacuum gauges, and more particularly to cold cathode ionization vacuum gauges for replaceable anodes. [Prior Art] Generally, in the vacuum gauge for gas gauges in high vacuum state, a cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge (CCG) is often used. This cold cathode ionization: vacuum gauge has a Penning vacuum gauge and a magnetoelectric vacuum gauge ( Magnetron vacuum gage), inverted type magnetron vacuum gage and other types of models. The composition of this cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge is taken as an example of a Penning vacuum gage and is illustrated in accordance with the fifth figure. As shown, the cold cathode ionization gauge 21 is mounted on a Penning vacuum gauge in a chamber 30, and the vacuum gauge 21 has a cathode 23 in an enclosure 22 and a cathode 23 in a cylindrical shape. The surrounding rod-shaped anode 24, the magnetic gas means (the magnets 25a and 25b) outside the tank 1' body 22, the power source (DC power source) 26 for applying a voltage to the anode 24, and the current for measuring the current flowing through the anode 24 Count 2 7. Further, the chamber 30, the casing 22, and the cathode 23 are grounded. The operation and principle of the cold cathode ionization gauge 21 will be briefly described. First, according to natural radiation or the like, in the space between the cathode 23 and the anode 24, 6200907314 is an initial electron, which performs a spiral motion of the magnetic field lines of the magnetic field of the wound magnets 25a, 25b, and finally is carried by the anode 24 Capture and collect. At this time, the electron collides with the gas and generates ionized ions. Next, the ionized ions are collected on the anode 24, and the current value is measured by an ammeter 27, and the pressure is measured from the current value. However, in this cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge, sometimes even if a high voltage is applied between the cathode and the anode, no discharge phenomenon occurs, and even if a discharge is generated, there is a time when the high voltage of the cold cathode ionization gauge is applied. A time delay occurs between the time when the current begins to flow after discharge. The delay varies depending on the pressure of the gas. In the case of a standard vacuum gauge, it is a few seconds under the pressure of T3Pa, and several hours under the pressure of T8Pa. Thus, under low pressure The delay at the start of discharge is difficult to allow for the length of the capacitor, and the conventional cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge is formed by integrally connecting the connector connected to the power source to the anode. When it is consumed, each connector must be replaced, which has the problem of extremely high replacement cost. This problem can be solved by screwing and mounting the anode to the connector. However, it is formed on one end of the rod anode. When there is a threaded portion that is screwed to the connector, it is necessary to screw the side of the screw portion to the connector, and it is difficult to mount the anode. The inventors of the present invention have found that the surface of the anode has irregularities on the surface of the anode. When the surface of the anode is smooth, it is easy to generate a discharge, and the high voltage of the cold cathode ionization gauge is applied, and the current starts to flow after the discharge of the power of 200907314. The time delay between the moments is solved by forming the aforementioned concavities and convexities by the spiral valleys of the threaded portions: The problem of the directionality of the cultivator is completed by the invention. 1% of the contents of the invention is to provide a cold cathode ionization. A vacuum gauge, which is like 5 ,, the valley is prone to discharge, and the time delay between the time when the cold drop is given, and the time after the electric shock, _ π 包 1-2, and the high voltage are n, More extreme 4-directionality problem, the anode can be easily replaced. Straight space;: ί: The cold cathode ionization and nt system of the present invention are the same as the cathode of the present invention; And an internal space; and a magnetic field in which an electric field between the cathodes is substantially orthogonal to each other, and an uneven portion is formed at a tip end portion of the anode and the uneven portion

I i. Since L t ' is formed with a concavo-convex portion at the tip end portion of the anode, it is measured at a timing at which electric charge ==2 is applied to the high-temperature dust of the cold cathode ionization gauge. The time delay between the moments of one pass is small, and it is effective here that the front and the back bumps are all made into the threaded portion, and the thread can be used according to the thread.

In this manner, since the screw portion is formed at both ends of the anode, the anode can be attached to the connector by screwing the screw portion formed at either end to the connector, and the restriction of the anode mounting direction can be released. Further, since the screw portion of the other end portion of the anode is disposed in the space inside the cylinder of the cathode, discharge is likely to occur, and the time delay between the timing at which the high voltage of the cold cathode ionization gauge is applied and the time at which the current starts to flow after discharge is delayed. small. Here, the length of the threaded portion formed at both ends of the anode is the same size, and it is preferable that the thread having the same pitch is formed on the threaded portions of the both ends. Further, in the case where the lengths of the screw portions formed at both ends of the anode are different, it is preferable that either of the screw portions is formed to at least exceed the length of the screw portion screwed to the connector. Further, it is preferable that the entire length of the anode is 28 mm or more and 30 mm or less, and a screw portion having a length of 3 mm or more and 10 mm or less is formed at the tip end portion. According to the cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge of the present invention, it is possible to obtain a so-called discharge which is easy to generate, and the time delay between the timing at which the cold cathode ionization gauge south voltage is applied and the timing at which the discharge current starts to flow are small. Moreover, according to the cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge of the present invention, the so-called 9 200907314 anode mounting non-directionality can be obtained, and the effect of each anode can be easily changed.

In addition, when the total length L of the anode is 28 mm or more and 31 mm or less, and the tip portion is formed with a thread portion of 3 mm or more and 10 mm or less, it is considered that discharge occurs within 4 minutes. (Second Embodiment) Further, the pressure-output voltage characteristics were verified by the anode used in the first embodiment. In the same manner as in the first embodiment, the anode was made of an anode having a diameter of 1.6 mm and made of molybdenum. Further, the total length L of the anode is set to 27 mm, 28 mm, 29 mm, 30 mm, and 31 mm, and a screw portion having a pitch of 1.6 mm and a length of 3 mm for connection to the connector is formed at an end portion connected to the connector of the anode. The other end of the anode was formed with a thread portion having a pitch of 1.6 mm and a length of 3 mm. Further, the aforementioned thread portion is formed by ISO metric threads. The thus formed anode was mounted on the cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge 1 shown in Fig. 3 to verify the pressure-output voltage characteristics. Here, the reference pressure in the chamber 30 is measured by a pressure gauge not shown, and a 3 KV DC power source is used for the power source, and the current of the cathode 23 is measured by a current measuring circuit. The measurement current is input to a log amplifier, and the result of the logarithmic amplifier voltage output (V) and the reference pressure (Pa) are plotted to investigate the relationship. And the results are shown in the fourth picture. Further, in the fourth figure, the symbol A is an anode having a total length of 31 mm, the symbol B is an anode having a total length of 30 mm, the symbol C is an anode having a total length of 29 mm, the symbol D is an anode having a total length of 28 mm, and the symbol E is a positive length of 27 mm. 14 200907314 Extreme occasion. As shown in the fourth figure, in the case of an anode having a total length of 27 mm (the sign of the symbol E), at the point b, it is understood that the output voltage with respect to the reference pressure is unstable and has a dispersed portion. Further, in the case of an anode having a total length of 31 mm (in the case of the symbol A), at the point a, it is understood that the output voltage with respect to the reference pressure is not stabilized and has a dispersed portion. When the measurement is carried out using such an anode, it is not preferable because an appropriate pressure value cannot be obtained. On the one hand, an anode system having a total length of 28 mm to 30 mm can obtain an output voltage stable with respect to a reference pressure, and an appropriate pressure value can be obtained from an output voltage. As described above, from the viewpoint of discharge characteristics, the total length of the anode is preferably 28 mm or more and 31 mm or less. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of pressure-output voltage characteristics, the total length of the anode is 28 mm or more and 30 mm. The following are preferred. Therefore, it is preferable that the entire length of the anode is 28 mm or more and 30 mm or less, and the tip end portion is formed with a thread portion of 3 mm or more and 10 mm or less. However, the above description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention is only one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. The features of the present invention are not limited thereto, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The scope of the patent application is subject to the scope of the present invention, and any one skilled in the art can be included in the scope of the present invention. Any changes or modifications that are easily thought of can be covered in the scope of the patents in this case below. 15 200907314 [Brief Description of the Drawings] The first drawing shows a schematic configuration of a cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge according to the present invention. The first figure is a side view of the anode of the cold cathode ionization vacuum gauge used in the first figure. The schematic ^ diagram is used to illustrate the output voltage relative to the reference pressure.
