20150152672 | SELF-LOCKABLE OPENING AND CLOSING MECHANISM FOR VACUUM CABIN DOOR - A self-lockable opening and closing mechanism includes a frame, a vacuum cabin door, a driving cylinder mounted in the frame, and a linkage mechanism formed of a horizontal lever, one or a pair of first bars, one or a pair of rotational levers, one or a pair of adjustment blocks, one or a pair of second bars, one or a pair of sliding blocks and one or a pair of valve rods and coupled between the driving cylinder and the linkage mechanism in such a manner that operating the driving cylinder drives the valve rods to move the vacuum cabin door between an open position and a close position, and a locking force is automatically produced to hold the vacuum cabin door in the close position against any reaction force, preventing the problem of failure or reduced effect in vacuum sealing. | 06-04-2015 |
