[0001] This application relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, specifically to a polypeptide synthesizer with an automatic lid-opening function. Background Technology

[0002] The peptide synthesizer is an important piece of equipment for peptide synthesis. During the use of the peptide synthesizer, the bottom plate generally needs to be opened for cleaning and other operations every half month. In the existing technology, the tank and the bottom plate are connected by multiple bolts. Each time it is cleaned, all the connecting bolts must be removed and then installed one by one after cleaning. This is time-consuming, labor-intensive and has low disassembly and assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this application is to provide a peptide synthesizer with an automatic cap-opening function, which aims to solve the problem of low disassembly and assembly efficiency in the prior art.

[0004] This application achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A peptide synthesizer with an automatic lid-opening function includes a tank;

[0006] An opening and closing module, one end of which is hinged to the tank body, and the other end of which is hinged to a sealing cap for closing the tank body.

[0007] A sealing ring is disposed on the sealing cover;

[0008] A rotating module is disposed on the tank body; a rotating locking module connected to the rotating module is also disposed between the tank body and the sealing cover. The rotating module controls the rotating locking module to rotate around the tank body to push the sealing cover to close and squeeze the sealing ring.

[0009] Optionally, the opening and closing module includes several sets of hingedly connected first connecting seats and first adjusting cylinders. Each first connecting seat is evenly arranged around the axis of the tank body, and its free end is connected to the tank body respectively. Each first adjusting cylinder is hingedly connected to the sealing cover respectively.

[0010] Optionally, the sealing cover is also provided with a plurality of first hinge seats, each of which is hingedly connected to each of the first adjusting cylinders.

[0011] Optionally, the tank body is also provided with a second connecting seat, and the sealing cover is provided with a second hinge seat, which is hingedly connected to the second connecting seat.

[0012] Optionally, the rotating module includes at least one rotating adjusting cylinder, one end of which is hinged to the second connecting seat, and the other end of which is hinged to the rotating locking module.

[0013] Optionally, the rotary locking module includes an adjusting ring and an axial compression module, wherein the adjusting ring is rotatably sleeved on the tank body; each of the rotary adjusting cylinders is hinged to the adjusting ring to drive the adjusting ring to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the axis of the tank body.

[0014] Optionally, the adjusting ring includes several arc-shaped plates, and the arc-shaped plates are joined together at their ends to form a circular structure; any two adjacent arc-shaped plates are connected by a connecting plate.

[0015] Optionally, a first limiting flange is provided at the top of the adjusting ring along the axial direction of the adjusting ring; a second limiting flange is provided on the tank body, and the first limiting flange and the second limiting flange are in contact with each other along the axial direction of the tank body.

[0016] Optionally, the axial extrusion module includes several sets of mutually cooperating wedge blocks and support blocks. Around the axis of the adjusting ring, each wedge block is connected to the sealing cover, and each support block is connected to the adjusting ring. Each support block is provided with an extrusion roller that fits against the wedge block. An adjustment gap adapted to the wedge block is provided between any two adjacent support blocks.

[0017] Optionally, around the axis of the adjusting ring, the adjusting ring is further provided with a plurality of radial adjusting rollers and a plurality of axial supporting rollers; each of the radial adjusting rollers is respectively fitted with the outer peripheral surface of the second limiting flange, and each of the axial supporting rollers is respectively fitted with the top surface of the second limiting flange.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] This application includes a tank and an opening and closing module. One end of the opening and closing module is hinged to the tank, and the other end is hinged to a sealing cap for closing the tank. A sealing ring is also provided on the sealing cap. At the same time, a rotating module is also provided on the tank. A rotary locking module powered by the rotating module is also provided between the tank and the sealing cap. The rotating module controls the rotary locking module to rotate around the tank to push the sealing cap to close and squeeze the sealing ring.

[0020] When the tank needs to be closed, the opening and closing module first controls the sealing cover to close with the tank, while the sealing ring fits tightly with the opening end of the tank. Finally, the rotating module controls the sealing cover to rotate. During the rotation of the sealing cover, the rotating locking module will push the sealing cover further towards the tank in the axial direction, thereby cooperating with the tank in the axial direction to squeeze the sealing ring and achieve sealing of the opening end of the tank.

[0021] When it is necessary to open the tank, the sealing cover is first rotated in the opposite direction by the rotating module to engage the locking of the rotating locking module, and then the tank can be opened by controlling the sealing cover in the opposite direction by the opening and closing module.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, firstly, this application realizes the automatic closing and opening of the sealing cover, which reduces the labor intensity and disassembly efficiency of workers to the greatest extent possible compared with the traditional manual disassembly and assembly method;

[0023] Secondly, there are no connecting bolts between the tank body and the sealing ring in this application. Therefore, the installation and opening of the sealing cover can be achieved by controlling the movement of the opening and closing module and the rotating module. This eliminates the need for frequent installation and removal of structural components such as bolts, which helps to improve the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.

[0024] Finally, this application cleverly utilizes the rotational movement of the sealing cap to convert it into axial compression through a rotary locking module, enabling the sealing ring to better fill the gap between the tank and the sealing cap, thereby ensuring the sealing effect on the tank. Its structure is simple and its sealing performance is good. Attached Figure Description

[0037] Implementation Method 1

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment is an optional embodiment of this application, which discloses a peptide synthesizer with an automatic lid opening function, including a tank 1 and a sealing lid 2. The tank 1 is cylindrical in shape, and the bottom of the tank 1 is completely open along the axial direction of the tank 1. The sealing lid 2 is used to close the bottom of the tank 1.

[0039] A second connecting seat 7 is installed on the outer circumferential surface at the bottom of the tank body 1, and a second hinge seat 8 is provided at the bottom of the sealing cover 2. The second connecting seat 7 and the second hinge seat 8 are hinged together by a rotating shaft.

[0040] Furthermore, an opening and closing module is also provided on the tank body 1. The opening and closing module includes several sets of first connecting seats 4 and first adjusting cylinders 5. Preferably, two sets of first connecting seats 4 and first adjusting cylinders 5 are provided. The first connecting seats 4 and the first adjusting cylinders 5 in the same set are connected by a pin hinge.

[0041] Each of the first connecting seats 4 is evenly arranged around the axis of the tank body 1, and its free end is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the tank body 1 respectively;

[0042] Two first hinge seats 6 are also provided on the bottom surface of the sealing cover 2. The telescopic rods of the two first adjusting cylinders 5 are respectively hinged to the two first hinge seats 6 through hinge shafts, thereby realizing the hinged connection between the sealing cover 2 and the opening and closing module.

[0043] The above settings not only achieve hinge control of the sealing cover 2, but also make the first adjusting cylinder 5 and the first connecting seat 4 hinged. Therefore, the first adjusting cylinder 5 has linear motion capability in the axial direction, as well as a certain rotation adjustment function, which can avoid jamming during the rotation adjustment of the sealing cover 2 and improve the flexibility of adjustment.

[0044] Meanwhile, the two sets of first adjusting cylinders 5 arranged symmetrically can effectively improve the uniformity of force on the sealing cover 2, thereby improving the stability of the sealing cover 2 during the adjustment process.

[0045] Furthermore, a sealing groove is provided on the side of the sealing cap 2 that faces the tank body 1. The groove has an annular structure, and a sealing ring 3 is embedded in the sealing groove.

[0046] Furthermore, a rotating module and a rotating locking module are also provided at the bottom of the tank body 1, wherein the rotating module has at least one rotating adjusting cylinder 9. Preferably, there are two rotating adjusting cylinders 9, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second connecting seat 7 along the axial direction of the tank body 1. One end of each of the two rotating adjusting cylinders 9 is hinged to the second connecting seat 7 through a hinge shaft.

[0047] The rotary locking module includes an adjusting ring 10 and an axial compression module. The adjusting ring 10 includes several arc-shaped plates 1001. Preferably, there are two arc-shaped plates 1001, and the central angle of the two arc-shaped plates 1001 is 180°. It should be noted that the two arc-shaped plates 1001 have the same structure and are joined together at the ends to form a circular structure.

[0048] A connecting plate 1002 is also provided at the joint of the two arc-shaped plates 1001, and the connecting plate 1002 is connected to the arc-shaped plate 1001 by connecting bolts;

[0049] The adjusting ring 10 is fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the bottom of the tank body 1, and the adjusting ring 10 is coaxially arranged with the tank body 1;

[0050] Along the axial direction of the tank body 1, a first limiting flange 11 is also provided at the top of the adjusting ring 10. It should be noted that, along the radial direction of the adjusting ring 10, the first limiting flange 11 is located on the inner side of the adjusting ring 10.

[0051] Meanwhile, a second limiting flange 12 is also provided at the bottom of the outer peripheral surface of the tank body 1. Along the axial direction of the tank body 1, the first limiting flange 11 is located on the upper side of the second limiting flange 12, and the bottom surface of the first limiting flange 11 is in close contact with the top surface of the second limiting flange 12.

[0052] The telescopic rods of each of the rotary adjusting cylinders 9 are respectively hinged to the outer peripheral surface of the adjusting ring 10 via pins, thereby controlling the adjustment ring 10 to rotate around the axis of the tank body 1;

[0053] Furthermore, the axial extrusion module includes several sets of mutually cooperating wedge blocks 13 and support blocks 14; around the axis of the sealing cover 2, each of the wedge blocks 13 is evenly arranged, and several connecting plates 1002 are evenly arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the sealing cover 2, and each of the wedge blocks 13 is connected to each of the connecting plates 1002 by bolts; it should be noted that each of the wedge blocks 13 is separate from each other;

[0054] Each of the wedge blocks 13 has an overall arc-shaped structure. Along the length direction of the wedge block 13, one side of the wedge block 13 facing the support block 14 is an inclined surface, and the other side is a planar structure.

[0055] Each of the support blocks 14 is disposed at the bottom of the adjusting ring 10, and is evenly distributed around the axis of the adjusting ring 10. Along the radial direction of the adjusting ring 10, each of the support blocks 14 is disposed on the inner side of the adjusting ring 10, and each of the support blocks 14 is integrally connected to the inner wall of the adjusting ring 10. An adjustment gap 16 adapted to the wedge block 13 is provided between any two adjacent support blocks 14.

[0056] Each of the support blocks 14 is rotatably equipped with a pressing roller 15, and the pressing roller 15 is in close contact with the bottom surface of the wedge block 13; it should be noted that the bottom surface refers to the side of the wedge block 13 that faces the support block 14.

[0057] When the tank 1 needs to be closed, one of the rotary adjusting cylinders 9 extends its piston rod, while the other rotary adjusting cylinder 9 retracts its piston rod. Around the axis of the adjusting ring 10, the two rotary adjusting cylinders 9 apply the same rotational force to the adjusting ring 10, thereby controlling the rotation of the adjusting ring 10. At this time, the mutually misaligned support rod block (i.e., along the axis of the tank 1, the wedge block 13 is located directly above the adjusting gap 16) will move closer to the wedge block 13. The squeezing roller 15 will first come into contact with the inclined surface on the wedge block 13, and gradually move to the plane at the bottom of the wedge surface during rotation. Due to the inclined surface, the squeezing roller 15 will push the sealing cover 2 toward one side of the tank 1 and continuously squeeze the sealing ring 3, thereby achieving a seal.

[0058] When it is necessary to open, the movement direction of the two rotary adjusting cylinders 9 is reversed. At this time, the wedge block 13 and the support block 14 will be misaligned with each other, and the squeezing roller 15 will once again fit against the inclined surface at the bottom of the wedge block 13, thereby gradually releasing the squeezing of the sealing cover 2, and thus releasing the squeezed sealing cover 2. At the end position of the adjustment, the wedge block 13 will be located directly above the adjusting gap 16. At this time, the opening and closing module can control the rotation of the sealing cover 2, thereby fully opening the tank 1. And due to the existence of the adjusting gap 16, the sealing cover 2 will not interfere with the adjusting ring 10.

[0059] The above structure cleverly converts the rotational motion of the adjusting ring 10 into the axial movement of the sealing cover 2 through the setting of the wedge block 13, thereby squeezing the sealing ring 3 to achieve sealing. It is not only simple in structure, but also can effectively ensure the stability and sustainability of the seal.

[0060] Furthermore, around the axis of the adjusting ring 10, the adjusting ring 10 is also provided with a plurality of radial adjusting rollers 17 and a plurality of axial supporting rollers 18; each of the radial adjusting rollers 17 is respectively in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the second limiting flange 12, and each of the axial supporting rollers 18 is respectively in contact with the top surface of the second limiting flange 12.

[0061] The cooperation between the radial adjusting roller 17 and the axial support roller 18 can effectively reduce the rotational resistance of the adjusting ring 10, making equipment control more labor-saving and effectively reducing equipment wear, thereby ensuring the equipment's sealing performance.

[0062] Compared with the prior art, firstly, this application realizes the automatic closing and opening of the sealing cover, which reduces the labor intensity and disassembly efficiency of workers to the greatest extent possible compared with the traditional manual disassembly and assembly method;

[0063] Secondly, there are no connecting bolts between the tank body and the sealing ring in this application. Therefore, the installation and opening of the sealing cover can be achieved by controlling the movement of the opening and closing module and the rotating module. This eliminates the need for frequent installation and removal of structural components such as bolts, which helps to improve the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.

[0064] Finally, this application cleverly utilizes the rotational movement of the sealing cap to convert it into axial compression through a rotary locking module, enabling the sealing ring to better fill the gap between the tank and the sealing cap, thereby ensuring the sealing effect on the tank. Its structure is simple and its sealing performance is good.

[0065] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
