Reactor cleaning apparatus
In a reactor cleaning apparatus 1 which cleans an inner wall surface 72 of a reactor 70 which generates polycrystalline silicon, a bell jar of the reactor 70 has a dual structure, a through hole 11 is formed along a vertical direction at a central portion of a substantially disc-like tray 10 placed in a horizontal state, a flange portion 13 in which an opening edge of the reactor 70 is placed is formed at an outer peripheral portion of the tray 10 , a shaft 20 is provided through the through hole 11 of the tray 10 so as to be rotatable and movable in the vertical direction, a nozzle device 50 which sprays a cleaning water at high pressure in three-dimensional directions is provided at an upper end of the shaft 20 , a drive mechanism 30 which rotates the shaft 20 and moves the shaft in the vertical direction is provided at a base end of the shaft 20 , and steam piping 62 capable of supplying the steam within the bell jar of the reactor 70 is provided.
1. A reactor cleaning apparatus which cleans an inner wall surface of a reactor which produces polycrystalline silicon, a bell jar of the reactor having a dual structure,
the reactor cleaning apparatus comprising:
a substantially disc-like tray placed in a horizontal state;
a drainage hole formed in the tray;
a through hole formed along a vertical direction in a central portion of the tray;
a flange portion, at an outer peripheral portion of the tray, on which a lower opening edge of the bell jar is placed;
a shaft provided through the through hole of the tray so as to be rotatable around an axis and movable in the vertical direction;
a nozzle device provided at an upper end of the shaft to spray a cleaning water at high pressure in three-dimensional directions;
a drive mechanism provided to rotate the shaft and move the shaft in the vertical direction; and
steam piping provided so as to be capable of supplying the steam within the bell jar.
2. The reactor cleaning apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the shaft has a feed screw formed on the outer peripheral portion,
the tray is provided with a fixed nut which is screwed to the feed screw and guides the shaft upward and downward in accordance with rotation of the shaft, and
the drive mechanism is provided with a pulley to rotate by a power source thereof, and in which the shaft is inserted in a central portion of the pulley and provided with a spline groove and a spline ridge, which allow the shaft and the pulley to fit thereto so as to be slidable in the length direction, between the inner peripheral surface of the pulley and the outer peripheral surface of the shaft.
3. The reactor cleaning apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the tray is inclined so as to have a descending gradient toward the drainage hole.
4. The reactor cleaning apparatus of claim 2 ,
wherein the tray is inclined so as to have a descending gradient toward the drainage hole.
