Abstract

A vacuum system, such as the form of a plasma system, includes a vacuum chamber. The side walls of the vacuum chamber are configured in the form of a completely closed chamber extruded profile. A first end face of the chamber extruded profile is closed off with a plate. A second end face of the chamber extruded profile, which lies opposite the first end face, has a reversibly openable and closable door. The door is fastened by at least one hinge pivotably to the chamber extruded profile. The side walls, which are fully closed transversely to the longitudinal axis of the chamber extruded profile, enable a simple and cost-effective production of the vacuum chamber. The vacuum chamber may be accommodated at least partially in a housing, which may likewise be configured at least partially in the form of an extruded profile.

Claims (13)

1. A vacuum system having a vacuum chamber, wherein an outer side of the vacuum chamber which runs parallel to a vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis is formed in one piece from a chamber extruded profile, wherein the chamber extruded profile is configured such that the chamber extruded profile is fully closed transversely to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis and has an end-face opening which can be opened and closed by a pivotably openable and closable door, wherein the chamber extruded profile has on the outer side a hinge projection which runs parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis and extends outwardly from the outer side and on which is disposed a hinge for the pivotable connection between the pivotably openable and closable door door and the chamber extruded profile.

2. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the chamber extruded profile has on the outer side a latch holder projection which runs parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis and on which is disposed a latch for the closing of the pivotably openable and closable door on the chamber extruded profile.

3. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the chamber extruded profile has on the outer side a cooling rib running parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis.

4. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the chamber extruded profile has on the outer side a fastening projection running parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis for fastening the vacuum chamber to a housing of the vacuum system.

5. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the chamber extruded profile has on a chamber extruded profile inner side two mutually opposing insertion recesses running parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis for the insertion of a plate.

6. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vacuum system has a housing in which the vacuum chamber is accommodated, wherein a part of the housing which runs parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis is configured in a form of a housing extruded profile.

7. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vacuum system is configured in a form of a vacuum dryer.

8. The vacuum system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vacuum system is configured in a form of a plasma system.

9. A vacuum system, comprising:

a vacuum chamber, wherein an outer side of the vacuum chamber which runs parallel to a vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis is formed in one piece from a chamber extruded profile, wherein the chamber extruded profile is configured such that the chamber extruded profile is fully closed transversely to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis and has at least one end-face opening;

a pivotably openable and closable door configured to open and close the at least one end-face opening of the chamber extruded profile;

a hinge projection formed as part of the chamber extruded profile which runs parallel to the vacuum chamber central longitudinal axis and extends outwardly from the outer side; and

a hinge disposed on the hinge projection, wherein the hinge is a pivotable connection between the pivotably openable and closable door and the chamber extruded profile.
