Detailed Implementation

[0044] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] This embodiment provides a pneumatic delivery system multi-sample injector, such as... Figure 1、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The multi-sample injector includes a placing plate 1, a sample storage mechanism 2, a sample storage box 3, a retractable sample pushing mechanism 4 and a retractable sealing mechanism 5.

[0046] The opening end of the sample storage mechanism 2 faces downward, and the placing plate 1 is used to place the sample box 11 coming out of the sample storage mechanism 2.

[0047] The sample storage mechanism 2 stores a plurality of sample boxes 11, and releases one sample box 11 to the placing plate 1 at a time.

[0048] In the multi-sample injector shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the sample storage mechanism 2 is located above the placing plate 1, and the sample box 11 comes out of the sample storage mechanism under the action of gravity and falls on the placing plate 1.

[0049] Of course, the relative positions of the sample storage mechanism 2 and the placing plate 1 are not limited to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sample storage mechanism 2 can also be located in other positions of the placing plate 1.

[0050] The storage space of the sample storage mechanism 2 can store a plurality of sample boxes 11, so that the operator can put a plurality of sample boxes 11 to be irradiated into the storage space at one time, thereby saving the operator's manpower.

[0051] As shown in Figure 4 , the sample storage box 3 is connected to one side of the placing plate 1, so that the sample box 11 moving on the placing plate 1 can enter the sample storage box 3; and the sample storage box 3 is provided with a placing groove 301 in communication with the conveying pipeline 10, and the sample box 11 entering the placing groove 301 can enter the conveying pipeline 10 under the action of the airflow of the conveying pipeline 10.

[0052] The placing groove 301 shown in Figure 4 opens upward, and the sample box 11 on the placing plate 1 can fall into the placing groove 301 downward after entering the sample storage box 3 under the pushing of the retractable sample pushing mechanism 4. The opening direction of the placing groove 301 is not limited to Figure 3 the structure shown, but can also be other directions. For example, the opening of the placing groove 301 faces the retractable sample pushing mechanism 4, and the sample box 11 is directly pushed into the placing groove 301 by the retractable sample pushing mechanism 4.

[0053] Continuing to refer to Figure 4 , the working end of the retractable sample pushing mechanism 4 extends into the sample storage mechanism 2 and can push the sample box 11 on the placing plate 1 into the placing groove 301.

[0054] When irradiation is required, the working end of the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 moves toward the location of the sample storage box 3, pushing the sample box 11, which has exited from the sample storage mechanism 2 and is located on the placement plate 1, so that the sample box 11 moves on the placement plate 1 and finally enters the placement slot 301 in the sample storage box 3. After the pusher operation is completed, the working end of the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 retracts.

[0055] The working end of the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 can close and open the opening of the placement groove 301.

[0056] When sample box 11 needs to be pushed into placement slot 301, the opening of placement slot 301 is open. After the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 pushes sample box 11 into placement slot 301, the working end of telescopic sealing mechanism 5 moves towards the location of placement slot 301 until it closes the opening of placement slot 301, preventing airflow from flowing out of the opening of placement slot 301, so that sample box 11 can move normally in conveying pipe 10. When one sample box 11 has finished conveying, the working end of telescopic sealing mechanism 5 moves away from placement slot 301, and the opening of placement slot 301 is opened, so that the next sample box 11 can smoothly enter placement slot 301.

[0057] Reference Figure 4 The opening of the placement groove 301 faces upward, and the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 is located above the placement groove 301; the working end of the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 can move up and down. Of course, the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 can also be located in other positions within the placement groove 301; for example, in… Figure 3 As shown, the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 can also be located on the right side of the placement groove 301. The working end of the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 can move in the left and right directions to close or open the opening of the placement groove 301.

[0058] In this embodiment, the multi-sample injector operates as follows: First, the sample ejection mechanism releases a sample box 11 onto the placement plate 1. Then, the telescopic pushing mechanism 4 pushes the sample box 11 from the placement plate 1 into the placement slot 301 of the sample storage box 3. Finally, the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 seals the opening of the placement slot 301. Airflow propulsion is generated in the delivery pipe 10, pushing the sample box 11 into the reactor for irradiation. The process is repeated for each subsequent irradiation. Therefore, this multi-sample injector allows operators to place multiple sample boxes 11 at once and automatically inserts one sample box 11 into the delivery pipe 10 each time, eliminating the need to place the sample box 11 for each irradiation, thus improving the automation and efficiency of sample placement.

[0059] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 6The telescopic sample pushing mechanism 4 includes a first telescopic member 401 and a sample pushing member 402. One end of the sample pushing member 402 is connected to the working end of the first telescopic member 401, and the other end of the sample pushing member 402 is located between the placement plate 1 and the sample storage mechanism 2. The sample pushing member 402 can move towards or away from the placement groove 301 under the drive of the first telescopic member 401.

[0060] The first telescopic component 401 can be an electric push rod, capable of extending and retracting along its own length. Of course, the first telescopic rod can also be other structural forms such as a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.

[0061] like Figure 6 The working end of the first telescopic member 401 shown is connected to the pusher member 402 by a pin. Of course, in some other embodiments of this application, the working end of the first telescopic member 401 is welded to the pusher member 402.

[0062] When it is necessary to push the sample box 11 located on the placement plate 1 into the placement slot 301, the first telescopic member 401 extends. The working end of the first telescopic member 401 drives the pusher 402 to move from the initial position toward the placement slot 301, thereby pushing the sample box 11 into the placement slot 301. After the sample box 11 is pushed into the placement slot 301, the first telescopic member 401 retracts. The working end of the first telescopic member 401 drives the pusher 402 to move away from the placement slot 301 until the pusher 402 returns to the initial position of pushing the sample box 11.

[0063] Continue to refer to Figure 6 The sample pusher 402 has a receiving through hole 403 for the sample box 11 to enter. When the sample storage mechanism 2 releases a sample box 11, the sample box 11 enters the receiving through hole 403. The inner wall of the receiving through hole 403 can restrict the movement of the sample box 11 and prevent the sample box 11 coming out of the sample storage mechanism 2 from moving freely on the placement plate 1.

[0064] By setting the relative distance between the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 and the sample storage mechanism 2, and the telescopic distance of the first telescopic member 401, it is possible to align the receiving through hole 403 with the position where the sample storage mechanism 2 releases the sample box 11 when the first telescopic member 401 shortens and drives the pusher 402 back to the initial position; and to align the receiving through hole 403 with the opening of the placement groove 301 when the first telescopic member 401 extends and drives the pusher 402 to extend a preset distance.

[0065] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiments of this application also include a base plate 6 and a first support 7. The first support 7 is disposed on the base plate 6, and the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 is connected to the first support 7. When the telescopic pusher mechanism 4 has the above-described structure, the end of the first telescopic member 401 that is away from the pusher member 402 is connected to the first support 7.

[0066] In the embodiment, with reference to Figure 7 , the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 comprises a second telescopic member 501 and a cover 502. The cover 502 is connected to the working end of the second telescopic member 501, and the cover 502 is driven by the second telescopic member 501 to move towards or away from the placement slot 301.

[0067] The second telescopic member 501 can be an electric push rod, which can be telescopic in the length direction of the second telescopic member 501. Of course, the second telescopic member 501 can also be a hydraulic cylinder, an air cylinder or other structural forms.

[0068] As shown in Figure 7 , the working end of the second telescopic member 501 is connected to the cover 502 by a pin. Of course, in other embodiments, the working end of the second telescopic member 501 is welded to the cover 502.

[0069] When the sample box 11 is pushed into the placement hole by the sample pushing member 402, the second telescopic member 501 is elongated, and the working end of the telescopic member drives the cover 502 to move towards the opening of the placement slot 301 until the cover 502 closes the opening of the placement slot 301, so that the placement slot 301 is isolated from the outside. When the sample box 11 is transported to the reaction pile by the airflow in the transport pipeline 10, the second telescopic member 501 is shortened, and the working end of the telescopic member drives the cover 502 to move away from the opening of the placement slot 301, so that the opening of the placement slot 301 is opened to allow the telescopic sample pushing mechanism 4 to push the next sample box 11 into the placement slot 301.

[0070] Figure 7 The specific structure of the cover 502. The cover 502 comprises a baffle 5021, a sealing block 5022 and a gasket 5023. The baffle 5021 is connected to the working end of the second telescopic member 501. The sealing block 5022 is arranged on the bottom surface of the baffle 5021 and is used to extend into the placement slot 301 and abut the inner wall of the placement slot 301. The gasket 5023 is arranged on the bottom surface of the baffle 5021 and surrounds the sealing block 5022.

[0071] The sealing block 5022 is integrally connected to the baffle 5021, and the top surface of the gasket 5023 is bonded to the bottom surface of the baffle 5021. Of course, the sealing block 5022 and the baffle 5021 can also be connected by welding, and the gasket 5023 can also be connected to the bottom surface of the baffle 5021 by screws.

[0072] When the cover 502 closes the opening of the placement slot 301, the outer side surface of the sealing block 5022 abuts the inner wall of the placement slot 301, and the baffle 5021 presses the gasket 5023 against the edge of the placement slot 301. The cover 502 cooperates with the sealing block 5022 through the gasket 5023 to isolate the placement slot 301 from the outside, avoiding leakage of the airflow in the transport pipeline 10.

[0073] With reference to Figure 7 , the bottom surface of the placement groove 301 and the bottom surface of the sealing block 5022 are both provided as a circular arc surface, forming an inner wall surface that is adapted to the sample box 11. Specifically, the inner wall formed by the bottom surface of the placement groove 301 and the bottom surface of the sealing block 5022 is a cylindrical surface, which is fitted with the outer side surface of the sample box 11 as shown in the figure, avoiding excessive airflow between the sample box 11 and the bottom surface of the sealing block 5022 and between the sample box 11 and the bottom surface of the placement groove 301, which would affect the transportation of the sample box 11, ensuring that the airflow in the transportation pipeline 10 can push the sample box 11 in the placement groove 301. Figure 5

[0074] It should be noted that the specific structure of the gland 502 is not limited to the above, and in other embodiments of the present application, the gland 502 can also have other structures.

[0075] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 , the sample storage mechanism 2 is arranged above the placement plate 1, and the sample box 11 released from the sample storage mechanism 2 falls on the upper surface of the placement plate 1.

[0076] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 , the sample storage mechanism 2 includes a sample storage cylinder 201, a sliding rail 202, and a sliding cover 203. The sample storage cylinder 201 is located above the placement plate 1, and a plurality of sample boxes 11 can be arranged in the sample storage cylinder 201. The sliding rail 202 is arranged on the top of the sample storage cylinder 201 in the horizontal direction; and the sliding cover 203 is slidingly connected to the sliding rail 202.

[0077] Both ends of the sample storage cylinder 201 have openings, the opening at the top of the sample storage cylinder 201 is used for placing the sample box 11, and the opening at the bottom of the sample storage cylinder 201 is used for the sample box 11 to fall down.

[0078] The sliding rail 202 is connected to the top of the sample storage cylinder 201 by screws. The sliding rail 202 can also be welded to the top of the sample storage cylinder 201.

[0079] When it is necessary to place sample boxes 11 in the sample storage mechanism 2, the sliding cover 203 is slid along the sliding rail 202 to move away from the opening at the top of the sample storage cylinder 201, and after the opening at the top of the sample storage cylinder 201 is opened, the operator places a plurality of sample boxes 11 in the sample storage cylinder 201 according to the pre-set irradiation order, and the plurality of sample boxes 11 in the sample storage cylinder 201 are arranged in the height direction as shown in Figure 5 .

[0080] With reference to Figure 5 , the sample storage mechanism 2 further includes a door 204, and the sample storage cylinder 201 is provided with an outlet facing the first telescopic sample pushing mechanism 4. The door 204 is hinged to the sample storage cylinder 201, and the door 204 can cover the outlet.

[0081] ​A hinge is arranged beside the outlet of the sample storage cylinder 201, and the door 204 is connected to the hinge, so that the door 204 can be opened and closed by rotating around the hinge. When the door 204 is closed, the outlet is covered. When it is necessary to observe the sample box 11 placed in the sample storage cylinder 201, the door 204 can be opened for observation.

[0082] In the embodiment, the sample storage box 3 is provided with a first mounting hole 305 and a second mounting hole 3046 which are coaxial and communicate with the placing groove 301. The multi-sample feeder further comprises two pairs of photoelectric sensors 9 which are respectively mounted in the first mounting hole 305 and the second mounting hole 3046 to detect the sample box 11 in the placing groove 301.

[0083] When the telescopic sample pushing mechanism 4 pushes the sample box 11 into the placing groove 301, the two pairs of photoelectric sensors 9 mounted in the first mounting hole 305 and the second mounting hole 3046 can detect the sample box 11 in the placing groove 301, and then control the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 to close the opening of the placing groove 301.

[0084] Referring to Figure 2 With Figure 4 , the sample storage box 3 comprises a shell a 302 and a shell b 303. The shell a 302 is connected to the shell b 303, and the placing plate 1 is connected to the shell b 303, and the top surface of the placing plate 1 is flush with the top surface of the shell b 303. The side of the shell a 302 facing the sample storage mechanism 2 is provided with a sample pushing channel for the working end of the telescopic sample pushing mechanism 4 and the sample box 11 to pass through. The placing groove 301 is arranged in the shell b 303, and the opening of the placing groove 301 faces upward, and the telescopic sealing mechanism 5 is located above the placing groove 301; the first mounting hole 305 and the second mounting hole 3046 are also arranged in the shell b 303.
