DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0077] FIGS. 1 and 2 are oblique views of a high air-tightness electromechanical device of the present invention in two different directions. The sealing housing of the device is mainly composed of a bottom plate 1, a frame wall 2 and a lid 3. A screw 4 tightly fixes the lid 3 on the frame wall 2. The four corners of the frame wall 2 have four holes 5, which can be used to fix the electromechanical device on other brackets by screws.

[0078] When the electromechanical device is a laser, the laser light generated inside the device is output through window 6. The output laser light may need to be coupled to the optical fiber, so screw holes 7 are provided on the frame wall 2, so as to fix the coupling mechanism. The screw hole 7 is a blind hole, not a through-hole connecting the inside and outside of the housing, so the screw hole 7 does not affect the sealing performance of the housing.

[0079] Elements and components of the laser is put into the device. These elements and components usually include crystal, glass, metal, temperature control element, temperature monitoring element, humidity monitoring element, and optical power monitoring element, etc. These elements and components are usually fixed within the housing through screws, welding and adhesives. For the laser, the power supply and the electric signal are connected with the elements and components inside of the laser from outside through the thick electrode 8 and the fine electrode 9. The large current passes through the thick electrode 8 and the small current passes through the thin electrode 9.

[0080] In many cases, if the sealing housing of the laser has been always filled with nitrogen, inert gas or vacuum, then the life time of the laser will increase a lot. If the final sealing process of the junction between the bottom plate 1, frame wall 2 and lid 3 is carried out in another big box filled with desired gases or vacuum, such as a glove box, the desired gases or vacuum is sealed within the housing.

[0081] The sealing of the junction between the bottom plate 1, frame wall 2 and lid 3 is usually easier to do under ordinary air condition. At this time, after the sealing, the desired gases can be injected into the housing or the housing can be vacuumized through the pipeline 10 connected to the housing. Then the pipeline 10 is clamped off, heated to melt, or closed by the valve 11.

[0082] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the sealing housing of the electromechanical device, so as to illustrate the air-tightness sealing of the bottom plate 1, frame wall 2 and lid 3. In order to obtain good air-tightness, the component materials of the bottom plate 1, frame wall 2 and lid 3 are metal, glass and ceramic. The surfaces of these components can be painted, but the sealing effect of the painting will not be considered here. A C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12 is placed between the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2. The C-shaped ring 12 is a flexible metal material. In order to obtain a good sealing effect, the C-shaped ring can be polished on surface, and plated with gold, silver, copper, tin and other soft metal materials. The surfaces of the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 contacting the C-shaped ring likewise remain metal, glass and ceramic materials, with little roughness and great flatness, and cannot have painting. As such, the pressurization of the screw 13 can allow for good contact between the C-shaped ring 12 and the surfaces of the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2, and the leakage rate of helium can be as little as 1×10.sup.−12 Pa m.sup.3/sec per mm of hollow-core metal sealing ring length. For 100 mm length of hollow-core metal sealing ring, the value is 1×10.sup.−10 Pa m.sup.3/sec, approximately equal to 1×10.sup.−9 atm cc/sec, whose physical meaning is that: under 1 standard atmospheric pressure difference, the helium leaks 1 cc every 30 years, or air leaks about 1 cc every 80 years.

[0083] The material used to press the contacting surface of the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12 and the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 should be preferably the soft material same as that of the surface of the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12. Then through pressing, the contact surface material of the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 and the surface material of the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12 are prone to be integrally blended together at the interface, resulting in best sealing effect of the interface. The interface of the same kind of soft metal material are prone to be integrally blended. While the interface of different kinds of metal materials are not so prone to be integrally blended. The interface of the metal material, glass and ceramic are hard to be integrally blended, due to the great difference of the material characteristics, therefore the sealing effect of the interface is relatively poor. At this time, metal material same as that of the surface of the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12 can be pre-plated or pre-welded with metal material at the pressing contact surface of the glass or ceramic material. Plating or welding can tightly attach the metal material on the glass or ceramic, allowing for good air-tightness of the interface. Metal and metal are pressed together, and the interface is prone to be integrally blended, thus having good air-tightness, Even though the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 are made of metal materials, plating or welding appropriate metal materials on the contact surface can also facilitate to improve the air-tightness effect.

[0084] A metal spring-enhanced C-shaped ring 14 is placed between the frame wall 2 and the lid 4 of FIG. 3. The sealing performance of the metal spring-enhanced C-shaped ring 14 is one order of magnitude better than the C-shaped ring 12. The metal spring-enhanced C-shaped ring 14 is placed within the annular groove 15 of the lid 3. FIG. 3 shows the non-pressing status. When the screw 4 is tightened, the cylindrical spiral spring is pressed into an elliptic cylinder.

[0085] FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the structure of C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 12 without pressing, its sectional structure is as shown in FIG. 5, and when pressed, its sectional structure is as shown in FIG. 6.

[0086] FIG. 7 is a part of the spring-enhanced C-shaped ring 14. It is made up of C-shaped ring 12 and spiral spring ring 16 which is disposed through the C-shaped ring. FIGS. 8 and 9 show the sectional shapes without pressing and with pressing, respectively. The spiral spring ring 16 facilitates to adapt to the uneven surfaces of the frame wall 2 and the lid 3 in the length direction.

[0087] There are many kinds of hollow-core metal sealing ring, and based on the sectional shape, there are O-shape, W-shape, E-shape, U-shape, V-shape, super C-shape, etc., which can be used for the purpose of the present invention, and when selected, its sealing performance, pressure and other parameters should be considered.

[0088] In order to simplify the sealing and reduce the cost of housing, the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 can be made into an integral component, or the frame wall 2 and the lid 3 can be made into an integral component.

[0089] The thick electrode 8 and the fine electrode 9 generally need to be integrally formed with housing, such as the frame wall 2 and the lid 3, respectively, with its interface requiring good sealing performance. The sealing method of the rubber ring and the adhesive can not be used, due to their poor sealing performance. The method of heat welding should be used, such as metal solder welding, metal welding, glass welding and ceramic sinter forming, etc. Here, the metal solder welding uses metal solder, the melting temperature of which may be high or may be low, corresponding to the low temperature tin welding, high temperature braze welding, etc. The solder welding process includes soldering iron welding, flame welding, heating furnace welding, etc. The metal welding does not use solder, including fusion welding, diffusion welding etc.

[0090] The pipeline 10 generally also needs to be integrally formed with the housing, and the sealing method can not use the rubber ring, plastics or adhesives but need to use heat welding method, such as metal solder welding, metal welding, glass welding and ceramic sinter forming, etc. The pipeline 10 can be made of metal or glass. After filled with the desired gases or vacuumized, the pipeline 10 of metal material or glass material is melted and compacted for sealing.

[0091] A part of the pipeline metal materials such as copper and aluminum can also be sealed by simply clamping off the pipeline 10. When the pipeline 10 is clamped off the metal material pipeline 10 is first pressed into a small gap. Then continuing to press, the metal material has a large plastic deformation, and the metal materials on both sides of the gap are cold welded together, and the gap will disappear. This clamping-off sealing method has a good sealing performance.

[0092] In addition to the above sealing of melting and compacting and clamping off the pipeline 10 can also be sealed by valve 11, so that it can be opened and then re-sealed for many times. The connection sealing of the valve 11 and the pipeline 10 can be heat welding sealing, pressing sealing by hollow-core metal sealing ring, or they may be integral component beforehand.

[0093] FIG. 10 is a schematic view of the structure of the high air-tightness electromechanical device of the FIG. 1 with the lid open and the pipeline and the valve removed. The window 6 is provided with a transparent window glass 17 which separates the inside and the outside of the housing. Laser light generated within the housing is output through the transparent window glass 17 and the window 6. The sealing between the transparent window glass 17 and the housing, such as the frame wall 2 and the lid 3, requires a good sealing method. The sealing method of the rubber ring and the adhesive can not be used, and the method of heat welding should be used, such as metal solder welding, glass welding and ceramic sinter forming, etc. When the transparent window glass 17 is the glass with melting point not too high, the sealing method of metal solder welding and glass welding can be used. The frame wall 2 and the lid 3 are generally metal, and when using metal solder to weld glass, the glass surface is generally plated with metal film to metallize the glass, so that the soldering material can firmly weld the glass. When the window glass is a corundum material with melting point up to 2040° C., the sealing method of ceramic sinter fowling can also be used. The ceramic sintering temperature is usually lower than 2000° C., and will not fuse the corundum material.

[0094] FIG. 10 also shows an internal thread blind hole 18 on the bottom plate 1. The thread blind hole 18 is used to fix the elements and components inside the housing. Based on the requirements, the thread blind hole 18 can also be disposed on the frame wall 2 and the lid 3. The thread blind hole 18 is not through-hole, and does not affect the sealing of the housing. In addition to fixed with screws, the internal elements and components can also be fixed by welding and adhesives. Unlike FIG. 1, FIG. 10 shows the state with no need for the pipeline 10 and valve 11.

[0095] FIG. 11 shows the housing with the lid 3 open when seen from the bottom of FIG. 1. The sealing metal ring 14 is placed in the annular groove 15 at the lid 3. As another method, the annular groove can also be disposed at the frame wall 2.

[0096] The bottom surface of the bottom plate 1 shown in FIG. 11 is flat, except for the screw hole of the screw 13. Since some of high-power electromechanical devices need to be cooled from the bottom plate 1, the flat bottom surface is favorable for the heat transferred to other cooling plates. As for some other high-power electromechanical devices, the bottom plate 1 is provided with waterway, and the cooling water flows in the waterway, taking the heat away.

[0097] The valve 11 requires a good sealing performance herein. The conventional valve use rubber ring to seal, which can not be used herein. The present invention provides a valve with high air-tightness, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13. 19 and 20 is the inlet and outlet of the valve pipeline, 21 is valve knob, 22 is valve body, 23 is hollow-core metal sealing ring, 24 is pressing block, and 25 is rubber sealing ring. The material of each component isolating the inside from the outside of the valve when the valve is closed is one or more of the metal, glass and ceramic. When tightening the knob switch 21, the knob switch 21 propels the pressing block 24 to move straight to press the C-shaped sealing ring 23. The pressing block 24 is provided with a guide key 26, as shown in FIG. 14. The guide key 26 is matched with the guide groove of the inner cylinder of the valve body 22, so that the pressing block 24 can only move straight, without rotation. When the pressing block 24 pressed the C-shaped sealing ring 23, the air-tightness of leakage rate of helium less than 1×10.sup.−10 Pa m.sup.3/sec can be achieved. If the guide key 26, the guide groove and the pressing block 24 are omitted, the valve can have the advantages of simple structure and low cost, but the hollow-core metal sealing ring 23 turns to be subjected to rotary pressing, resulting in large wear, and generally does not have such good sealing performance as straight pressing under the guide key.

[0098] When loosening the knob switch 21, the pipeline inlet 19 and outlet 20 get through with each other. In order not to cause too much air leakage at the knob switch 21, a rubber sealing ring 25 is disposed on the periphery of the cylinder of the knob switch 21. When the pipeline inlet 19 and outlet 20 get through with each other, the external air pump or high pressure air cylinder control the air state inside the housing, so that the leakage rate of the rubber sealing ring 25 being a bit high is not so important.

[0099] FIG. 14 is a state diagram with the knob switch 21 and the valve body 22 separated. When the knob switch 21 is loosened to a certain extent, the knob switch 21, pressing block 24 and C-shaped sealing ring 23 are taken out from the inner cylinder of the valve body 22 altogether. The C-shaped sealing ring 23 is stuck within four anti-detachment claws 27 on the pressing block 24. At the same time, the pressing block 24 is also stuck on the knob switch 21. Sometimes, in order to ensure high air-tightness, the hollow-core metal sealing ring 23 can only be sealed once, and if need to seal again, the hollow-core metal sealing ring 23 should be replaced with a new one. With regard to the valve of the present invention, the hollow-core metal sealing ring 23 used for sealing can be simply taken out from the valve body 22, facilitating replacement. In order to prevent the separation of the knob switch 21 assembly from the valve body, a separation preventive screw can be disposed on the valve body. When the separation preventive screw is tightened, the rotation of the knob switch 21 can only close or open the valve. When the separation preventive screw is loosened, the rotation of the knob switch 21 can allow it be taken out from the valve body.

[0100] The knob switch 21 shown in FIGS. 12 to 14 is a manual mechanical type, and for electric valve, the knob switch can be made into electric type. The electric switches have rotary and straight types, and for the straight electric switch, the guide groove and the pressing block 24 in the valve both can be omitted.

[0101] In the present invention, the junction between the valve 11 and the pipeline 10 also use pressing sealing by hollow-core metal sealing ring to achieve high air-tightness. The material of each component isolating the inside from the outside of the pipeline interface when the pipeline interface is connection sealed is one or more of metal, glass and ceramic. FIG. 15 shows a cross-sectional view of a connection structure. 10 is pipeline, 28 is screw cap, 29 is C-shaped metal sealing ring, and 30 is threaded valve pipeline inlet and outlet. When the screw cap 28 is tightened to the thread of the valve pipeline orifice 30, the screw cap 28 presses the flange at the end of the pipeline 10, and further presses the C-shaped metal sealing ring 29 to the valve pipeline orifice 30, thus realizing the sealing. The pipeline 10 and the valve pipeline orifice 30 in FIG. 15 can be pre-rotated to any angle, and tightening the screw cap 28 for sealing does not change the angle, which is pretty convenient. In some cases of low cost, the pipeline 10 and the screw cap 28 are made into one component, then the valve pipeline orifice 30 may be rotated to an unexpected angle when tightened for sealing, and since it is rotary pressing, the air-tightness effect of the sealing will be generally poor, but the cost will be lower.

[0102] The valve pipeline orifice 30 in FIG. 15 can also be the orifice of another pipeline, as such, the pipeline length can be extended, and the pipeline interface can maintain good air-tightness.

[0103] FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the housing of a high air-tightness electromechanical device with no windows of the present invention. FIG. 16 is different form FIG. 1 in that: the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 are integrally formed into a bottom frame 31, without window 6, or pipeline 10. The housing of the electromechanical device is suitable for electrical signal processing device.

[0104] FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the housing of a high air-tightness electromechanical device with solar charging or wireless charging. FIG. 17 is different form FIG. 1 in that: the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 are integrally formed into a bottom frame 31, without electrode. The window 32 is disposed on the lid 3, and the power supply can be externally charged by solar charging or wireless charging.

[0105] FIG. 18 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the housing of a high air-tightness electromechanical device with a thin-walled frame. FIG. 18 is different form FIG. 1 in that: the bottom plate 1 and the frame wall 2 are integrally formed into a bottom frame 33, and its lower part is a thin-walled frame chassis structure, which saves material and has light weight. 34 is lid.

[0106] For the housing of a large high air-tightness electromechanical device with the size being more than half a meter, the housing can be made of sheet metal and sheet metal stamping components, and the cost is much lower when compared with machined by thick metal plate milling machine. FIG. 19 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the high air-tightness device made of sheet metal and sheet metal stamping components of the present invention. FIG. 20 is a cross-sectional view showing the sealing structure of FIG. 19. 35 is basin body of the sheet metal stamping component, 36 is flange of the basin body. 37 is lid plate of the sheet metal, 38 is edge of the lid plate. 39 is pressing limiting base plate of the hollow-core metal sealing ring, which can be made of metal material. 40 is bolt used for pressing, 41 is nut used for pressing, 42 is base plate used for the bolt, 43 is bas plate used for the nut. 44 is C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring.

[0107] When the bolt 40 and nut 41 are tightened, the flange 36 and edge 37 press the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 44, for sealing. Due to the use of pressing limiting base plate 39, the pressing amounts around the C-shaped hollow-core metal sealing ring 44 are uniform, so as to ensure a good sealing. in addition, due to the internal stress, the flanges of the large basin body may not be in a plane, thus generating warping. In order to adapt to the warping, the pressing limiting base plate 39, the base plate used for the bolt 42, and the base plate used for the nut 43 do not use large whole plates, but divide them into several small segments. These small segments and the edge 37 of the soft sheet metal together can be well adapted to the warping of the flange of the basin body. The shape of the small segments can be long strip, arc, circle, rectangle, etc. The pressing limiting base plate 39 can be fixed with the basin body flange 36, for example, by screw, beforehand, so as to reduce the workload of the final assembly, and can also be integrally formed into one component with the base plate used for the bolt 42, or the base plate used for the nut 43, so as to reduce the number of components.

[0108] Sometimes it is desired that the housing of the high air-tightness device has a large transparent window so that the article condition inside of the housing can be seen clearly. At this time, the sheet metal 37 of FIG. 19 can be replaced with a glass plate, as shown in FIG. 21. Here, the material of the glass plate or the window glass is an inorganic transparent material, such as glass material, quartz crystal, gem crystal, etc. Because it is not easy to punch holes in the glass, and the glass plate is prone to crush when suffering great pressure, the schematic view of the sealing structure is changed into FIG. 22. In FIGS. 21 and 22, 45 is window glass plate. 46 is pressing limiting base plate of the hollow-core metal sealing ring. Because it is difficult for the glass plate 45 to deform so as to adapt to the warping of the basin body flange 36, when manufacturing the basin body, the warping of the basin body flange 36 should be controlled. below a certain amount, and the width of the flange 36 as well as the thickness of the glass plate 45 should be appropriately increased. As such, the glass plate 45 can resist warping, so that the warping can adapt to the flatness of the glass plate 45. If the pressing limiting base plate 46, the base plate used for the bolt 42, and the base plate used for the nut 43 are also controlled in good flatness, and are not divided into small segments, they are also conducive to resisting warping. The pressing limiting base plate 46 can be fixed with the basin body flange 36, for example, by screw, beforehand, so as to reduce the workload of the final assembly, and can also be integrally formed into one component with the base plate used for the bolt 42, or the base plate used for the nut 43, so as to reduce the number of components.

[0109] As for the high air-tightness device in FIGS. 18, 19 and 21, because of the use of thin plate, it is difficult to punch a thread blind hole on it. Therefore, a threaded component can be fixed on the inner wall of the thin plate by adhesives, welding, and ceramic sinter forming and other processing techniques. Also, one or more of the glass window, pipeline, thick electrode and fine electrode communicating the inside with the outside can be fixed on the inner wall of the thin plate by metal solder welding processing technique, metal welding processing technique, glass welding processing technique and ceramic sinter forming processing technique, etc., which not only increases the number of functions, but also maintains a good sealing performance.

[0110] The housing of the high air-tightness device of the present invention is not limited to the rectangular shape shown in the above figures, but also can be a complex shape such as a cylinder and an elliptic cylinder, for example, the lid is round and the bottom plate is square. In addition, the bottom plate and the lid are not limited to the plane, but can also be an uneven complex curved surface. In addition, any one of the bottom plate, frame wall and lid can also be composed of a plurality of components, and uses one or more of metal solder welding processing technique, metal welding processing technique, glass welding processing technique, ceramic sinter forming processing technique and hollow-core metal sealing ring pressure seal processing technique for seal connection.

[0111] FIG. 23 is an exploded view of a high air-tightness container of the present invention. FIG. 24 is a cross-sectional view after assembly. The container is mainly composed of a container body 47 and a lid 49. The container body 47 has an external threaded opening and an external thread 48. The lid 49 has an internal thread 50, which is matched with the external thread 48. In order to maintain a high air-tightness seal, the present invention uses a hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 and a gasket 52. When the lid 49 is rotated to tighten, the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 and the gasket 52 are pressed through the propulsion of the external thread 48 and the internal thread 50. The gasket 52 is provided with a key 53, the external threaded opening is provided with a groove 54 and their matching allows the gasket 52 not to rotate with the lid 49, and defines that the container body 47, the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 and the gasket 52 only have straight pressing, without relative rotation. Thus the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 is not prone to be worn, and the sealing effect is good. If the lid 49 and the gasket 52 are integrally formed into one component, the cost will be lower, but the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 will have a rotating wear. 55 is positioning contact surface of the container body 47 and the lid 49, limiting the pressing amount of the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 not to be excessive. As for the sealing shown in FIG. 24, the components isolating the inside from the outside of the container are container body 47, gasket 52 and hollow-core metal sealing ring 51. Therefore, the materials made of the container body 47 and the gasket 52 should be one or more of metal, glass and ceramic with high air-tight performance.

[0112] FIG. 25 shows that a pipeline 56 is provided on the gasket 52. This pipeline 56 can be formed by machined with the gasket 52 together and can also be sealed by metal solder welding processing technique, metal welding processing technique, glass welding processing technique, ceramic sinter forming processing technique, and hollow-core metal sealing ring pressure seal processing technique. The status of the key 53 inserted into the groove 54 is also shown. The shape of the key 53 can be cylinder, cuboid, etc., the key 53 can be integrally formed with the gasket 52, or can be re-assembled by different components, or can be assembled before the lid 49 is tightened at the end of the separation. The groove 54 can be a square groove, and can also be a round hole, etc. FIG. 26 is a perspective view showing the gasket 52 with a pipeline 56 and a key 53.

[0113] The gasket 52 can also have a through electrode, the inner side of the high air-tightness container is provided with an electronic component, through the electrode, power is supplied and signal is input from the external, and then the signal is output from the inside to the outside. The sealing method for the electrode can be the same as the sealing method for the pipeline. Similarly, the container body 47 can also be provided with a pipeline, an electrode and a window glass, etc.

[0114] FIG. 27 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the high air-tight butt joint of the two pipelines through the pressing of the hollow-core metal sealing ring. The two sides of the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 are respectively provided with gaskets 52 and 57 having pipelines. The gaskets 52 and 57 may also be the flanges of the ends of the pipelines 56 and 58, respectively. The gasket 52 is provided with a key 53, and the gasket 57 is provided with a groove. The gasket 52 can be separated from the key 53 and is made to be the same as the groove on the gasket 57, and at this time the key 53 is just a cylinder or a cuboid. Because of the matching of the key 53 and the groove, the gaskets 52, 57 arid the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51 do not have relative rotation, but only have straight pressing and separating, so as to avoid the rotary friction of the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51, thus improving sealing performance. 59 is hollow screw nut having an internal thread, 60 is hollow screw bolt having an external thread, the internal and external threads are rotating matched at 61, pressing the gaskets 52, 57 and the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51. The positioning contact surface 55 defines the pressing amount of the hollow-core metal sealing ring 51. Compared with the rotary pressing of FIG. 15, the sealing performance of the straight pressing of FIG. 27 is better.

[0115] In some cases, two high air-tightness electromechanical devices need to be connected together through the pipeline. For example, air conditioning refrigerant compressor and air conditioning radiator generally need to be connected together through the pipeline. The high air-tightness sealing method of pipeline interface connection of the present invention has good high- and low temperature performance, durability, and better air-tightness than the sealing method of the pipeline socket connection and the rubber ring sealing method for the air-conditioning pipeline used in buildings and vehicles.

[0116] The high air-tightness device of the present invention can be a sealing device of a high temperature heating furnace. The housing of the high temperature heating furnace is composed of a frame wall and a lid etc., the sealing between them usually adopts the rubber ring. The heat-resistance temperature of rubber ring material is generally below 500° C., if the heating temperature reaches more than 1000° C., the use of rubber ring to seal will become difficult. The cooling water pipeline can be disposed around the rubber ring for cooling, but the use of hollow-core metal sealing ring with a higher heat-resistance temperature to seal can allow the structure to be more simple.

[0117] Similarly, as for ultra-low temperature cooling device, such as liquid nitrogen cooling device with the temperature of −196° C., the resistance to low temperature of conventional rubber ring and other organic materials is much higher than −196° C. in this case, the use of hollow-core metal sealing ring with resistance to extremely low temperature for sealing is better.

[0118] The high air-tightness device related to the present invention is applicable in laser, lighting source, camera, video camera, computer, database storage, telephone, oscilloscope, multimeter, communication equipment, electrical signal processor, microwave component, sensor, air conditioner, high temperature heating furnace, ultra-low temperature cooling device and long-term oxidation preventive preservation device and other uses.

[0119] The embodiment is not intended to limit the shape, material and structure of the present invention in any form, and any simple modification, equivalent change and decoration made to the above embodiments on the basis of the technical essence of the present invention all fall within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present invention.
