Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0047] The following is combined Figures 1 to 10 Describe the color layer columns of this application.

[0048] According to the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the color layer column includes:

[0049] Column component 1;

[0050] The needle component 2 is connected to the column component 1, and a snap-fit ​​fixing component 3 is provided at the connection between the needle component 2 and the column component 1.

[0051] The needle component 2 and the column component 1 are engaged so that the input end of the needle component 2, the input end of the column component 1, the output end of the column component 1 and the output end of the needle component 2 are sequentially sealed and connected.

[0052] In use, column component 1 is first transported to the production stage, where the appropriate adsorbent is loaded. Then, column component 1 is removed from the production stage, and needle component 2 and column component 1 are connected together using snap-fit ​​assembly 3, thus forming a chromatographic column. This achieves the goal of only column component 1 entering the production stage, and then snapping needle component 2 together with column component 1 to form a chromatographic column, effectively preventing needle component 2 from being contaminated with radioactivity upon contact with the end user.

[0053] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, column component 1 includes a connecting seat 11, a first needle 12, a second needle 13, and a container 14. Both the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 are installed within the connecting seat 11. The first needle 12 communicates with the inlet of the container 14, and the second needle 13 communicates with the outlet of the container 14. In use, the eluent is introduced into the container 14 through the first needle 12. After contacting the adsorbent in the container 14, the eluent is output through the second needle 13, thus obtaining a solution carrying high radioactivity. Furthermore, compared to soft chromatography columns in related technologies, the chromatography column in this embodiment consists of a connecting seat 11, a container 14, and corresponding needles, all of which are components with a certain degree of rigidity, eliminating the need for additional support structures and facilitating the production of chromatography columns.

[0054] In embodiments of this application, container 14 is, for example, a glass column. However, it should be understood that container 14 can also be any other suitable structure or material.

[0055] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connector 11 engages with the needle component 2, sealing the input end of the needle component 2, the first needle 12, the container 14, the second needle 13, and the output end of the needle component 2 sequentially. In use, the column component 1 is first transported to the production stage, the adsorbent is loaded into the container 14, and then the column component 1 is removed from the production stage. Then, the connector 11 engages with the needle component 2, sealing the input end of the needle component 2 with the first needle 12 and the output end with the second needle 13. When used by the user terminal, the eluent is transported through the input end of the needle component 2 to the first needle 12, enters the container 14 through the first needle 12 to contact the adsorbent, and then moves to the output end of the needle component 2 through the second needle 13. This achieves a radioactive solution obtained under sealed conditions, making it safer. Furthermore, this ensures that only the column component 1 enters the production stage, and then the needle component 2 is engaged with the column component 1 after production to form a chromatography column, effectively preventing the needle component 2, which comes into contact with the user terminal, from becoming contaminated and carrying radioactivity.

[0056] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, both the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 are fitted with telescopic sealing protective sleeves 15. During use, by providing telescopic sealing protective sleeves 15 to the first needle 12 and the second needle 13, the telescopic sealing protective sleeves 15 prevent the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 from being exposed to the external environment. When the connecting seat 11 is engaged with the needle component 2, the first needle 12 passes through the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 and is inserted into the input end of the needle component 2, while the second needle 13 passes through the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 and is inserted into the output end of the needle component 2. The telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 then retracts downwards. When the column component 1 disengages from the needle component 2, the connecting seat 11 and the needle component 2 are no longer engaged, and the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 gradually disengage from the needle component 2. Simultaneously, the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 gradually returns to its original shape, ensuring that the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 are enclosed within the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15, effectively preventing the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 from contacting the external environment.

[0057] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 11 at one end near the container 14. During use, the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is respectively fitted onto the first needle 12 and the second needle 13, and the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 11. This effectively prevents the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 from detaching when the connecting seat 11 detaches from the needle component 2, ensuring that the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is always fitted onto the first needle 12 and the second needle 13.

[0058] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the column component 1 includes a limiting and fixing block 16, which is mounted on the connecting seat 11. The limiting and fixing block 16 is used to fix the end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 away from the container 14 to the connecting seat 11. In use, the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is respectively fitted onto the first needle 12 and the second needle 13. The first needle 12 or the second needle 13 is inserted from the opening of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15, and then the opening end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is fixed to the connecting seat 11 by the limiting and fixing block 16, so that the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is fixed to the connecting seat 11, thereby preventing the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 on the first needle 12 or the second needle 13 from falling off, and ensuring that the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 are never in contact with the external environment.

[0059] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the lower surface of the connecting seat 11 is provided with multiple locking blocks 111, and the limiting fixing block 16 is provided with a protrusion 161 that abuts against the locking blocks 111. The protrusion 161 is located between the locking blocks 111 and the lower surface of the connecting seat 11. In use, the locking blocks 111 engage with the protrusion 161 on the limiting fixing block 16, so that the limiting fixing block 16 is fixedly installed on the connecting seat 11. Thus, the limiting fixing block 16 can effectively fix the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 on the connecting seat 11.

[0060] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the connecting seat 11 has a through hole that matches the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15. A first groove 112 is provided on the side of the connecting seat 11 away from the needle component 2. One end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 passes through the through hole, and the other end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is located between the limiting fixing block 16 and the first groove 112. In use, one end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is passed through the through hole and fitted onto the needle (first needle 12 or second needle 13), so that the other end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 is engaged in the first groove 112. The limiting fixing block 16 then fixes the other end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 in the first groove 112, thus limiting the other end of the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 between the limiting fixing block 16 and the first groove 112, preventing the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 from falling off, and ensuring that the first needle 12 and the second needle 13 do not come into contact with the external environment, preventing radioactive contamination of the external environment.

[0061] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the column component 1 includes a first conduit 17 and a second conduit 18. Multiple locking blocks 113, matching the first conduit 17 and the second conduit 18, are provided on the side of the connecting seat 11 near the container 14. The first conduit 17 connects the first needle 12 and the inlet of the container 14, and the second conduit 18 connects the second needle 13 and the outlet of the container 14. In use, one end of the first conduit 17 is connected to the first needle 12, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the container 14. One end of the second conduit 18 is connected to the second needle 13, and the other end is connected to the outlet of the container 14, thus connecting the first needle 12, the container 14, and the second needle 13. Furthermore, by locking the first conduit 17 and the second conduit 18 with the locking blocks 113 respectively, the first conduit 17 and the second conduit 18 become more stable and less prone to shaking, which is more beneficial for the production and use of the color layer column.

[0062] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, container 14 includes a tube body 141. A first connector 142 is located at the upper end of tube body 141, and a second connector 143 is located at the lower end of tube body 141. A first conduit 17 passes through the first connector 142 and communicates with tube body 141, and a second conduit 18 passes through the second connector 143 and communicates with tube body 141. Sealing elements are provided at the connections between the first connector 142 and tube body 141, and between the second connector 143 and tube body 141. In use, the first connector 142 and the second connector 143 are respectively engaged with the upper and lower openings of tube body 141. Then, the first conduit 17 passes through the first connector 142 and communicates with tube body 141, and the second conduit 18 passes through the second connector 143 and communicates with tube body 141, allowing liquid to enter tube body 141 through the first conduit 17 and exit tube body 141 through the second conduit 18. By providing sealing elements at the connection points of the first connector 142 and the tube body 141 and the second connector 143 and the tube body 141, the sealing of the connection between the first connector 142 and the second connector 143 and the tube body 141 is ensured, preventing radioactive materials inside the tube body 141 from polluting the external environment.

[0063] In embodiments of this application, the seal is, for example, a sealing ring. However, it should be understood that the seal can also be any other suitable structure with a sealing function.

[0064] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first connector 142 is provided with a limiting groove 144 that matches the second conduit 18. In use, one end of the second conduit 18 is connected to the second needle 13, and the other end of the second conduit 18 passes through the second connector 143 and communicates with the tube body 141. The second conduit 18 is engaged with the limiting groove 144, which prevents the second conduit 18 from shaking, so that the second conduit 18 can stably connect the second needle 13 and the tube body 141.

[0065] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the needle component 2 includes a needle holder 21, a single needle assembly 22, and a double needle assembly 23. The single needle assembly 22 and the double needle assembly 23 are respectively mounted on the needle holder 21. The needle holder 21 is engaged with the connecting seat 11, so that the double needle assembly 23, the first needle tip 12, the container 14, the second needle tip 13, and the single needle assembly 22 are sequentially sealed and connected. In use, the double needle assembly 23 is inserted into a bottle containing eluent, and the single needle assembly 22 is inserted into a vacuum bottle. At this time, there is a pressure difference between the single needle assembly 22 and the double needle assembly 23. The eluent flows through the double needle assembly 23 to the first needle tip 12, and then flows through the first needle tip 12 into the container 14. After the eluent comes into contact with the adsorbent in the container 14, it flows through the second needle tip 13 back to the single needle assembly 22, and then flows into the vacuum bottle, thereby obtaining a radioactive solution. It is convenient to use. Furthermore, only the column component 1 can enter the production process. After the column component 1 leaves the production process, the needle seat 21 is then snapped into the connecting seat 11, so that the needle component 2 and the column component 1 are installed together. This can effectively prevent the needle component 2, which comes into contact with the user terminal, from being contaminated and carrying radioactivity.

[0066] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the single-needle assembly 22 includes a third needle 221 and a first sealing connector 222 connected in sequence. The needle seat 21 engages with the connector 11, allowing the second needle 13 to be inserted into the first sealing connector 222. In use, the connector 11 engages with the needle seat 21, and the second needle 13 is inserted into the first sealing connector 222. The telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 on the second needle 13 contracts as it is squeezed. The third needle 221 is inserted into the vacuum bottle, allowing the eluent to enter the container 14, contact the adsorbent, and then flow through the second needle 13 to the first sealing connector 222, and then from the first sealing connector 222 to the third needle 221. The solution is collected in the vacuum bottle through the third needle 221. The first sealing connector 222 ensures that the second needle 13 remains isolated from the external environment. When the connector 11 detaches from the needle holder 21, the second needle 13 gradually moves away from the first sealing connector 222. Simultaneously, the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 on the second needle 13 gradually expands, enclosing the second needle 13. This ensures that the second needle 13 is always within the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 or always within both the telescopic sealing protective sleeve 15 and the first sealing connector 222.

[0067] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the single-needle assembly 22 includes a first filter 223, a third needle 221, and a first sealing connector 222 connected in sequence. In use, the third needle 221 is inserted into the vacuum bottle, allowing the eluent to enter the container 14 and contact the adsorbent. After contact, the eluent flows through the second needle 13 to the first sealing connector 222, and then flows from the first sealing connector 222 to the first filter 223. The first filter 223 filters the solution and delivers it to the third needle 221. The solution is collected in the vacuum bottle after passing through the third needle 221. Terminal filtration of the solution is achieved through the first filter 223, ensuring the quality of the obtained radioactive solution.

[0068] In one embodiment of this application, a first sealing needle sleeve is provided on the third needle 221. During use, the first sealing needle sleeve can effectively isolate the third needle 221 from the outside world, preventing the third needle 221 from being contaminated by long-term exposure to the external environment. When the color column is needed, the first sealing needle sleeve can be removed.

[0069] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the dual-needle assembly 23 includes a fourth needle 231, an air filter 232, and a fifth needle 233 and a second sealing connector 234 connected in sequence. One end of the fourth needle 231 is connected to the air filter 232, and the needle seat 21 is engaged with the connector 11 so that the first needle 12 is inserted into the second sealing connector 234. In use, the other end of the fourth needle 231 and the fifth needle 233 are inserted into a bottle containing eluent, and the single-needle assembly 22 is inserted into a vacuum bottle. The fourth needle 231 connects the eluent bottle to the outside, ensuring that the pressure in the eluent bottle is always consistent with the ambient pressure. This ensures that there is always a pressure difference between the vacuum bottle and the eluent bottle, and the eluent in the eluent bottle will continuously flow into the vacuum bottle. The fourth needle 231 connects the eluent bottle to the outside through the air filter 232. The air filter 232 can effectively filter the air, delivering clean air containing bacteria and impurities into the eluent bottle. This ensures that the pressure inside the eluent bottle is always higher than that in the vacuum bottle, while preventing the eluent from being contaminated by the air.

[0070] In the embodiments of this application, a second sealing sleeve is fitted onto the fourth needle 231, and a third sealing sleeve is fitted onto the fifth needle 233. During use, the second and third sealing sleeves effectively isolate the fourth and fifth needles 231 and 233 from the external environment, preventing them from being contaminated by prolonged exposure. When the chromatography column is needed, the second and third sealing sleeves can be removed.

[0071] In one embodiment of this application, the first sealing connector 222 and the second sealing connector 234 are, for example, heparin caps. However, it should be understood that the first sealing connector 222 and the second sealing connector 234 can also be any other suitable sealing connector.

[0072] In one embodiment of this application, the first, second, and third sealing needle sleeves are, for example, soft silicone sleeves, which can more effectively isolate the needle tip from contact with the external environment. However, it should be understood that the first, second, and third sealing needle sleeves can also be any other suitable sealing structure.

[0073] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 10 As shown, the snap-fit ​​fixing assembly 3 includes a snap-fit ​​strip 31 and a snap-fit ​​groove 32 that cooperate with each other, one of which is disposed on the connecting seat 11 and the other on the needle seat 21. In use, the snap-fit ​​strip 31 and the snap-fit ​​groove 32 are engaged to connect the connecting seat 11 and the needle seat 21, thereby snapping the column component 1 and the needle component 2 together, achieving the connection between the needle component 2 and the column component 1. This allows only the column component 1 to enter the production process, and the needle component 2 to be snapped together with the column component 1 after production to form a color layer column, effectively preventing the needle component 2, which comes into contact with the end user, from being contaminated and carrying radioactivity.

[0074] In embodiments of this application, the snap-fit ​​strip 31 is disposed, for example, on the inner wall surface of the pin holder 21, and the snap-fit ​​groove 32 is disposed, for example, on the outer wall surface of the connector 11. However, it should be understood that the snap-fit ​​strip 31 and the snap-fit ​​groove 32 can also be disposed in any other suitable location.

[0075] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 10 As shown, the snap-fit ​​strip 31 is provided with a second groove 311, and the end of the snap-fit ​​strip 31 near the snap-fit ​​groove 32 is provided with an inclined surface 312. The snap-fit ​​groove 32 is provided with a protrusion 321 that matches the second groove 311. In use, the column component 1 is first transported to the production stage. After the column component 1 leaves the production stage, the snap-fit ​​strip 31 and the snap-fit ​​groove 32 are snapped together. The protrusion 321 in the snap-fit ​​groove 32 moves along the inclined surface 312 towards the second groove 311 until the protrusion 321 snaps into the second groove 311, thereby connecting the needle seat 21 and the connecting seat 11 together. This achieves the goal of only the column component 1 entering the production stage, and then snapping the needle component 2 together with the column component 1 after the production stage to form a color layer column, effectively preventing the needle component 2, which comes into contact with the user terminal, from being contaminated and carrying radioactivity.

[0076] In one embodiment of this application, the snap-fit ​​fixing assembly 3 includes a first snap and a second snap that cooperate with each other, one of which is disposed on the connecting seat 11 and the other on the needle seat 21. In use, the first snap and the second snap are snapped together, thereby securing the connecting seat 11 and the needle seat 21, allowing the needle component 2 and the column component 1 to be connected together to form a color layer column. This achieves the goal of allowing only the column component 1 to enter the production process, and then snapping the needle component 2 together with the column component 1 to form the color layer column after production, effectively preventing the needle component 2, which comes into contact with the user terminal, from being contaminated and carrying radioactivity.

[0077] In embodiments of this application, the first latch is disposed, for example, on the outer wall surface of the needle holder 21, and the second latch is disposed, for example, on the outer wall surface of the connecting seat 11. However, it should be understood that the first and second latches can also be disposed in any other suitable location.

[0078] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate this application and are not intended to limit this application. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various combinations, modifications, or equivalent substitutions of the technical solutions of this application do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this application and should be covered within the scope of the claims of this application.
