Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of material preparation, and in particular to a temperature control device. Background Art

[0002] At present, in university laboratories, many researchers and students often face conditions that require temperature control during experiments, such as stirring, ultrasound, and light. Taking two-dimensional materials as an example, two-dimensional materials are usually multilayer structures. The fewer the number of layers of two-dimensional materials, the larger their specific surface area and the more active sites exposed. Therefore, two-dimensional materials usually need to be thinned and peeled off. Liquid phase exfoliation is a simple and controllable method for exfoliating two-dimensional layered materials. Usually, the liquid phase exfoliation method is divided into three steps: one is to disperse the material to be treated in the solvent; the second is to exfoliate the nanosheets through a probe or water bath ultrasound; and the third is to purify the ultrasound product. This method requires the use of high-power ultrasonic devices such as ultrasonic cell disruptors to peel off the sheet structure of the two-dimensional material. This process will generate a lot of heat, causing the temperature of the solution to rise. However, some materials are not tolerant to high temperatures, but they need to be treated in this way. Therefore, a temperature control device is needed to lower the temperature to ensure that the properties of the material do not change during the treatment process. Secondly, as the temperature rises during the treatment process, the solvent evaporates faster, and as the solvent evaporates, the concentration of the solution will become higher and higher. When the solution concentration is too high, the effect of ultrasonic peeling will be affected. At the same time, the solvent needs to be replenished, which wastes manpower.

[0003] In the prior art, the temperature control device of the laboratory is usually equipped with a heat exchange device and a temperature control system. A heat exchange medium is placed in the heat exchange device, and a container containing reagents is placed in the heat exchange medium through a fixed bracket. The temperature control system monitors the temperature of the heat exchange device and the reaction reagents, and controls the temperature of the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange device through a heating device or a refrigeration device, thereby realizing precise control of the temperature.

[0004] However, for experiments that do not require high temperature accuracy, the above-mentioned temperature control device has a complex structure and high cost. Summary of the invention

[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the problems of complex structure and high cost of the temperature control device in the prior art, thereby providing a temperature control device.

[0007] When in use, the temperature control medium is contained in the receiving tank of the storage device, and the temperature control sleeve is arranged outside the container to be temperature controlled. The temperature control medium is sucked into the water inlet of the circulation device, and enters the circulation channel in the temperature control sleeve through the water outlet of the circulation device. While the temperature control medium flows in the circulation channel, heat is exchanged with the container to be temperature controlled. The temperature control medium after heat exchange flows back to the receiving tank through the outlet end of the circulation passage, and the circulation is continued in this way to maintain stability in the container to be temperature controlled. While exchanging heat, the temperature control piece can also play a role in fixing the container to be temperature controlled, and the container to be temperature controlled does not directly contact the temperature control medium part, so as to prevent the container to be temperature controlled from being damaged, and the safety is higher; the temperature control device has a simple structure and reduces the cost while meeting the requirements of general laboratory use scenarios. The storage device, the circulation device and the temperature control piece can be disassembled and reassembled, which is portable and can be applied in a variety of scenarios. The temperature control device provided by the present invention solves the problems of complex structure and high cost of the temperature control device in the prior art.

[0026] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0027] This embodiment provides a structure of a temperature control device capable of maintaining a stable temperature in a container to be temperature-controlled, and is used for exchanging heat with the container to be temperature-controlled.

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a specific implementation of a temperature control device provided in this embodiment includes: a storage device 1, a circulation device 2 and a temperature control component 5, wherein the storage device 1 has a receiving tank for containing a temperature control medium; the circulation device 2 is detachably arranged in the receiving tank, and the water inlet 3 of the circulation device 2 is lower than the liquid level in the receiving tank; the temperature control component 5 is detachably arranged on the outside of the storage device 1, and the temperature control component 5 is used to be sleeved on the outside of the container to be temperature-controlled, and a circulation passage for the circulation of the temperature control medium is arranged in the temperature control component 5, the inlet end of the circulation passage is connected with the water outlet 4 of the circulation device 2, and the outlet end of the circulation passage is connected with the storage device 1.

[0029] When in use, the temperature control medium is contained in the receiving tank of the storage device 1, and the temperature control component 5 is sleeved on the outside of the container to be temperature controlled. The temperature control medium is sucked into the water inlet 3 of the circulation device 2, and enters the circulation channel in the temperature control sleeve through the water outlet 4 of the circulation device 2. While the temperature control medium flows in the circulation channel, heat is exchanged with the container to be temperature controlled. The temperature control medium after heat exchange flows back to the receiving tank through the outlet end of the circulation passage, and the circulation is continued in this way to maintain stability in the container to be temperature controlled. The temperature control component 5 can also play a role in fixing the container to be temperature controlled while exchanging heat, and the container to be temperature controlled does not directly contact the temperature control medium part, so as to prevent the container to be temperature controlled from being damaged, and the safety is higher; the temperature control device has a simple structure and reduces costs while meeting the requirements of general laboratory use scenarios. The storage device 1, the circulation device 2 and the temperature control component 5 can be disassembled and reassembled, which is portable and can be applied in a variety of scenarios.

Specifically, the temperature control component 5 can also be made into temperature control sleeves of different sizes, and temperature control components 5 of different specifications can be selected for replacement according to the use conditions; the size of the heat conducting pipe should not be too thin or too thick. If it is too thin, the flow rate of the circulating medium will be reduced, and if it is too thick, the number of windings will be too small, which will affect the temperature control effect. The length of the heat conducting pipe is suitable to be able to wrap two-thirds to three-quarters of the height of the container to be temperature controlled, and the number of windings is about 10 to 15 turns. In addition, as a replaceable embodiment, the temperature control component 5 can also be set as a sleeve structure, and the side wall of the sleeve structure is set as a heat exchange interlayer.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, in the temperature control device provided in this embodiment, the water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7 are flexible plastic pipes. Flexible plastic pipes can be easily connected, disassembled and bent. In addition, as an alternative embodiment, the water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7 can also be set as non-flexible pipes, which are bent by elbows.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in the temperature control device provided in this embodiment, the circulation device 2 is configured as a water pump.
