Abstract
The invention is related to a package for packing a cylindrical carbon heater, used for manufacturing a mono crystal body and a method of forming the same, in which the cylindrical carbon heater is held sandwiched at the opposite ends between a base member and a plurality of retainer members, and compressive forces are applied independently to different parts of the carbon heater on the base member via the respective retainer members.
Claims7
A package of a cylindrical carbon heater used for manufacturing a mono crystal body, which has an integral structure obtainable by sandwiching the cylindrical carbon heater between a base member and a plurality of retainer members, in such a manner that compressive forces are applied to individual portions of the carbon heater intervening between the base member and the retainer members in the direction of the axis of the carbon heater.
A method of forming a package of a carbon heater used for manufacturing a mono crystal body, in which said method comprises steps of positioning a cylindrical carbon heater on a base member, setting one of a plurality of retainer members on the upper end surface of the carbon heater positioned on the base member, applying an axial compressive force to marginal area of the carbon heater exclusive of current application terminals thereof, and axially compressing the current application terminals.
