Problems solved by technology

At present, the injection trigger signal of most gas chromatographs needs to be manually triggered by the start button on the instrument. The time interval between each injection and pressing the button is different, which will lead to poor retention time repeatability.
[0003] The Varian gas chromatograph uses an automatic injection trigger device. A long shrapnel is installed on the upper part of the injection port. When the sample is injected, the injection needle presses down the shrapnel to press the micro switch to obtain a trigger signal. Although this method can complete automatic injection triggering, it needs to install some complex connecting rod parts on the injection port, which is bulky, complicated, and easy to damage and fail, so it is not suitable for on-site portable instruments.
The triggering method adopted by TORION is relatively complicated. A custom-made syringe is used to press the probe on the PCBA board, and the probe is in contact with the electrode to trigger the trigger.
This has relatively strict requirements on the type of syringe, and only its specially customized SPME needle can be used to inject samples. The versatility is limited, and the triggering electronic device is very prone to failure under the high temperature of more than 200 degrees in the injection port.

Abstract

The invention provides a triggering method for a sample injection port of a chromatograph, which includes the following steps: (A1) inserting the needle head of an SPME into the through hole of an acting piece and pressing downward the acting piece; (A2) enabling the acting piece to move in a limiting piece and connect with a first electrode and a second electrode after an elastic piece is deformed, as a result, the first and the second electrodes are communicated through the acting piece, so as to trigger the working of the sample injection port; and (A3) lifting the external force so as to enable the acting piece to restore to the original position under the action of the elastic piece. The triggering device and method have the advantages of simple structure and high stability, portability and universality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sample inlet of a chromatograph, in particular to a trigger device and a trigger method for a sample inlet of a chromatograph. Background technique [0002] A trigger signal is required to start the instrument to run the process and trigger signal acquisition when gas chromatograph samples are injected. At present, the injection trigger signal of most gas chromatographs needs to manually trigger the start button on the instrument, and the time interval between each injection and pressing the button is different, which will cause the retention time repeatability to deteriorate. [0003] The Varian gas chromatograph uses an automatic injection trigger device. A long shrapnel is installed on the upper part of the injection port. When the sample is injected, the injection needle presses down the shrapnel to press the micro switch to obtain a trigger signal. Although this method can complete automatic injection triggering, it nee...
