Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe joint for high performance liquid chromatography system especially relates to a blade ring, fastener and joint device of high pressure resistance. BACKGROUND

[0002] When using liquid chromatograph to carry out chromatographic analysis, different target compound detection will involve different chemical detection methods, which will involve multi-way high pressure pipeline, such as: pump system to perfusion switching valve, perfusion switching valve to high pressure sampling valve, flow path switching between high pressure valves, especially clinical chromatography, mass spectrometry TDM system, because the traditional high pressure pipeline & joint adopts 316L stainless steel pipe, the pressure resistance can easily reach 70MPa or even above 100MPa, but when 316L stainless steel pipe is applied to clinical chromatography, mass spectrometry TDM, there is a problem of iron ion precipitation under high pressure working condition, which leads to the scheme being unacceptable; and the pipeline made of PEEK (polyether ether ketone) or other elastic plastic materials can solve the problem of iron ion precipitation, but the existing joint structure cannot solve the problem of high pressure resistance when using PEEK material.

[0003] For example, in the prior art, PEEK pipeline + PEEK blade ring + PEEK or metal screw, because there is no polar adsorption site and no metal ion, PEEK pipeline is the best choice for ion chromatography and gel filtration chromatography system (GFC). Moreover, PEEK has excellent inertness to medium-polar compounds and dissociative compounds, and its performance (such as peak shape) is better than that of stainless steel pipeline when analyzing dissociative compounds in a general chromatograph. However, the pressure resistance of PEEK pipeline is low, which can only ensure that the pressure does not leak within 20MPa (although some cases can withstand 40MPa when water is used as the mobile phase).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0057] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0058] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this disclosure shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. The words “comprising” or “including” and similar terms used in this disclosure mean that the element or object preceding the word covers the element or object listed after the word and its equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. The words “connection” or “linked” and similar terms are not limited to physical or mechanical connections.

[0059] Example 1

[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, this utility model provides a cutting ring, which is an internally penetrating conical ring. The cutting ring has a first through hole along its axis inside, through which the conduit 4 passes during use. The conduit can be a capillary tube or other commonly used conduit in the prior art.

[0061] The front section of the first through hole is a pipe connection section 41, and the rear section of the first through hole is a fastener connection section, and the diameter of the pipe connection section 41 is smaller than the diameter of the fastener connection section; the fastener connection section near the pipe connection section 41 is a first connection section 12, and the diameter of the first connection section 12 gradually increases from the front end to the rear end.

[0062] The fastener connection section has a second connection section 13 at its rear end, and the diameter of the second connection section 13 gradually decreases from the front end to the rear end.

[0063] In this embodiment, the first connecting segment 12 and the second connecting segment 13 are conical, but other feasible shapes are also possible.

[0064] The first through hole is composed of three connected sections, in order from the front end to the rear end of the tapered blade ring 1, a pipeline connecting section 41, the inner wall of which forms a straight cylinder structure parallel to the axis, a first connecting section 12 connected to the rear end of the pipeline connecting section, which presents a conical shape with the large end facing forward, and a second connecting section 13 connected to the large end of the first connecting section, which adopts a conical structure with the large end facing forward and the small end connected to the rear end of the blade ring 1. By setting the first connecting section 12 and the second connecting section 13 in the first through hole, when the blade ring 1 is installed, the blade ring 1 will be subjected to downward pressure from other parts on the first connecting section 12, and at the same time, the blade ring 1 will also be subjected to a reaction force from the interface on the outer conical surface 11 of the blade ring 1. These two forces in different directions will not only cause the blade ring 1 to deform and tightly grip the outer diameter of the pipeline 4, but also strengthen the sealing between the blade ring 1 and the interface to prevent leakage. The second connecting section 13 forms a handle at the rear end of the blade ring 1, which allows the blade ring 1 to be better removed from the interface.

[0065] Specifically, the diameter of the small end of the first connecting section 12 is larger than the diameter of the pipeline connecting section 41, which allows other parts to better transmit downward pressure to the blade ring 1 during installation.

[0066] Further, the first connecting section 12 and the second connecting section 13 are connected by a transition section 14, the pipe diameter of which remains unchanged from the front end to the rear end, and the hole diameter of the large end of the first connecting section 12 = the hole diameter of the transition section 14 = the hole diameter of the large end of the second connecting section 13. The transition section allows the blade ring to have a margin for processing to adapt to different fastener lengths.

[0067] Embodiment 2

[0068] As shown in Figure 6 a fastener, the fastener includes a screw shaft and a head, the front end of the screw shaft is provided with a first connecting head 21; a second through hole 42 is provided in the screw shaft along the screw shaft axis direction, and a connecting screw hole 23 is provided in the head, the connecting screw hole 23 is coaxial and conductive with the second through hole 42. In use, the pipeline 4 passes through the second through hole 42 and the connecting screw hole 23. The outer periphery of the screw shaft is provided with threads.

[0069] The first connecting head 21 is connected with an annular groove 22, and the annular groove 22 forms a barb structure with the first connecting head 21. The barb structure can smoothly remove the blade ring from the interface during disassembly. In this embodiment, the first connecting head 21 is conical in shape, which matches the shape of the first connecting section 12 in Embodiment 1, facilitating subsequent adaptive connection. Of course, it can also be other feasible shapes, the key is to match the shape of the first connecting section 12.

[0070] To further strengthen the fastening of the pipeline, the first fastener 2 has at least one slit 24 along its axial direction on the screw portion. In this embodiment, two slits are symmetrically arranged along the first fastener.

[0071] This fastener is used in conjunction with the blade ring of Embodiment 1 to secure the connection of pipe 4.

[0072] Example 3

[0073] like Figures 1-7 As shown: A high-pressure resistant connector device is used to fix the pipeline 4 in the interface, the interface including a switching valve interface, a chromatography column interface, etc., and the pipeline can be a capillary tube or other pipelines commonly used in the prior art.

[0074] A high-pressure resistant connector includes a cutting ring and a first fastener. The cutting ring 1 has a first through hole along its axis. The front section of the first through hole is a pipe connection section 41, and the rear section is a fastener connection section, with the diameter of the pipe connection section 41 being smaller than the diameter of the fastener connection section. The fastener connection section near the pipe connection section 41 is a first connecting section 12, and the diameter of the first connecting section 12 gradually increases from the front end to the rear end. The fastener includes a screw portion and a head. The front end of the screw portion has a first connecting head 21. The screw portion has a second through hole 42 along its axis, and the head has a connecting screw hole 23, which is coaxial with and communicates with the second through hole 42. The first connecting head 21 of the first fastener is adapted to the first connecting section 12 of the cutting ring. This adaptation refers to matching size and shape, and can be a snap-fit, latch-fit, or abutment connection.

[0075] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the first connecting segment 12 and the first connecting head 21 is conical, but it is not limited to conical. It can also be any shape that can cooperate with each other and whose interaction force is oblique, such as an arc shape whose cross-sectional shape gradually diffuses from the front end to the rear end.

[0076] The rear end of the first fastener connecting section is provided with a second connecting section 13, the diameter of which gradually decreases from the front end to the rear end. The rear end of the first connector 21 is provided with an annular groove 22, which forms a barb structure with the first connector 21. The annular groove 22 of the first fastener is adapted to connect with the second connecting section 13 of the blade ring. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the second connecting section 13 is a tapered structure, but it can also be other feasible shapes, the purpose of which is to be able to engage with the annular groove 22 to form a barb structure.

[0077] To enhance the pressure resistance rating, the first fastener 2 has at least one slit 24 along the axial direction on the screw portion.

[0078] In order to further improve the pressure strength grade, a second fastener 3 is further included, the second fastener 3 is in the form of a screw, a third through hole 43 is arranged on the second fastener 3, a second connecting head 31 is arranged on the screw end of the second fastener 3, the second fastener 3 is screwed into the connecting screw hole 23, and the second connecting head 31 is adaptively connected with the connecting screw hole 23.

[0079] The second connecting head 31 is in the form of a taper structure in the embodiment, and the bottom hole 25 of the connecting screw hole is in the form of a taper structure and is matched with the size and shape of the head of the second fastener 3. Of course, other feasible shapes can also be used, as long as the shape of the connecting screw hole 23 can be matched, so that adaptive connection is facilitated.

[0080] Further explanation and description are as follows:

[0081] The utility model discloses a kind of joint devices of high pressure resistance, including the blade ring 1 of embodiment 1, first fastener 2 (the specific structure of first fastener is as shown in embodiment 2) and second fastener 3, the blade ring 1, first fastener 2 and second fastener 3 are equipped with first through hole, second through hole 42 and third through hole 43 for pipeline 4 to pass through, the screw of the first fastener 2 is screwed, the screw end of the first fastener 2 is in abutment with the blade ring 1, the head of the first fastener 2 is equipped with the connecting screw hole 23 connected with second fastener 3, the hole bottom of the connecting screw hole 23 is in the form of a taper, the screw end of the second fastener 3 is equipped with the second connecting head 31 matched with connecting screw hole 23;The screw end of the first fastener 2 is equipped with first connecting head 21, the blade ring 1 is equipped with the first connecting section 12 matched with first connecting head 21, and the caliber of the blade ring taper hole 12 is greater than the caliber of pipeline through hole 41.

[0082] As Figure 3 And Figure 6Further, the screw rod of the first fastener 2 is provided with two cutting seams 24 in the axial direction, which uniformly divides the screw rod of the first fastener 2 into two parts. When the first fastener 2 is screwed into the interface, the first connecting head 21 of the first fastener 2 will press downward the first connecting section 12, i.e. press the inner tapered surface of the blade ring 1, at the same time, the outer tapered surface 11 of the blade ring 1 will be pressed with the inner tapered surface of the interface, so that the blade ring 1 is deformed, tightly holds the pipeline 4, and forms a secondary fastening, and the mutual pressing between the blade ring 1, the pipeline 4 and the interface forms a sealing structure; when the first fastener 2 presses downward the blade ring 1, the inner tapered surface of the blade ring 1 will reversely press the first connecting head 21 of the first fastener 2, so that the first fastener 2 with the cutting seam 24 is pressed and deformed, the pipeline through hole 41 of the first fastener 2 is reduced to tightly hold the outer diameter of the pipeline 4, and the third level of fastening is realized to further improve the pressure resistance level; further, when the second fastener 3 is screwed into the connecting screw hole 23 of the first fastener 2, the second connecting head 31 of the second fastener 3 is pressed and deformed with the connecting screw hole 23, tightly holds the pipeline 4, and the fourth level of fastening is realized.

[0083] Through the multi-level fastening of the joint device to the pipeline 4, in the case that all the materials are PEEK materials, the pressure resistance can be greater than 80Mpa, and even reaches 180Mpa after changing the material into steel or titanium, which can meet the application requirements of ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The downward pressure of the first fastener 2 and the reaction force of the interface to the joint are only applied to the blade ring 1, and will not be directly applied to the pipeline 4, only the deformation of the front end of the blade ring 1, the deformation of the first connecting head 21, the clamping of the screw rod part of the first fastener 2 and the deformation at the second connecting head 31 are used to fasten the outer diameter of the pipeline 4, the stress points on the pipeline 4 are dispersed, the stress of each point is reduced, and the probability of the pipeline 4 being blocked due to stress concentration and serious deformation is greatly reduced.

[0084] In the existing high-pressure joint structure, the sealing element and the pipeline are usually made into an integral structure, and once the parts are repaired or replaced, the pipeline and the sealing element need to be replaced at the same time, and the maintenance cost is extremely high. Since the downward pressure of the first fastener 2 and the reaction force of the interface to the joint are only applied to the blade ring 1, the blade ring 1 becomes a vulnerable part of the entire joint, and when the joint is repaired or the sealing element is replaced, only the blade ring 1 needs to be replaced, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost and reduces the maintenance time.

[0085] In the prior art, the blade ring 1 is sealed in the interface by a screw for a long time, and the blade ring 1 usually deforms, so when the joint is replaced, the deformed blade ring 1 is difficult to be taken out from the interface, in order to solve the above problems, like Figures 4-6As shown, further, the conical head of the screw end of the first fastener 2 is provided with an annular groove 22, which forms a barb structure with the first connecting head 21; the blade ring 1 is provided with a second connecting segment 13 structure adapted to the barb structure near one end of the first fastener 2, and the blade ring 1 is clamped with the first fastener 2 through the second connecting segment 13 structure and the barb structure, and when the first fastener 2 is rotated out of the interface, the barb structure of the first fastener 2 will simultaneously take the blade ring 1 out of the interface.

[0086] Specifically, the head profile of the second fastener 3 and the first fastener 2 is selected from one of knurled, hexagonal and petal-shaped. It is convenient for the operator to rotate in and out the second fastener 3 and the first fastener 2.

[0087] Specifically, the materials of the blade ring 1, the first fastener 2, the second fastener 3 and the pipeline 4 are selected as high-molecular soft material, which is PEEK (polyether ether ketone) in this embodiment.

[0088] Installation method:

[0089] 1. The pipeline 4 is sequentially threaded through the first through hole of the blade ring 1, the second through hole 42 of the first fastener 2 and the third through hole 43 of the second fastener 3, and the front end of the pipeline 4 is ensured to protrude from the front end of the blade ring 1.

[0090] 2. The first connecting head 21 of the first fastener 2 is clamped into the fastener connecting segment of the blade ring 1, and the combination is compressed;

[0091] 3. The second fastener 3 is rotated into the connecting screw hole 23 of the first fastener 2, and is tightened.
