Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid marble preparation, in particular to a production line for preparing boxed liquid marbles. Background Art

[0002] With the development of miniaturized medical drug preparation, liquid marbles have attracted widespread attention and have important application prospects in the biomedical field. Liquid marbles are droplet structures formed by encapsulating hydrophobic particles. Their properties are more stable than pure droplets and can be clamped and transferred, but they are weaker than solid spheres and will break under strong pressure. Because this structure can isolate the liquid inside the liquid marble from external environmental contamination and can maintain a stable morphology, it has great potential in the chemical industry and can be used as a chemical microreactor. It also has a wide range of applications in drug screening, blood typing, and gas detection, with advantages such as promoting catalysis, reducing actual consumption, and increasing reaction rate.

[0003] There are two main methods for preparing liquid marbles in the prior art: using the rolling adhesion of liquid droplets to hydrophobic particles to produce individual liquid marbles; and using the vibration of a vibrating plate to achieve large-scale production of liquid marbles, with the marbles arranged in a single row.

If the encapsulation rate is unqualified, the liquid marble box 2 is moved to the waste collection device 8; if the encapsulation rate meets the standard, the liquid marble box 2 is moved to the second conveyor belt assembly 25, and the vibration assembly 20 of the encapsulation transfer device 5 is reset and returned to the side of the first conveyor belt assembly 9. At the same time, the second conveyor belt assembly 25 transports the liquid marble box 2 to the packaging position. Driven by the second linear translation assembly 48, the suction mechanism 29 moves to the top of the first lifting mechanism 26, sucks one of the marble box covers 27 in the box body 40, and moves it to the top of the liquid marble box 2 for sealing. Each time a marble box cover 27 is sucked, the servo motor assembly 42 drives the support plate 41 of the first lifting mechanism 26 to move upward to push the marble box cover 27 to the top of the box body 40. After the capping is completed, the suction mechanism 29 is used to move the sealed liquid marble box 2 containing liquid marbles to the collection tank in the second lifting mechanism 28 for storage, thereby realizing the automated preparation and packaging of the boxed liquid marbles, and facilitating the use, storage and transportation of the liquid marbles.
