Abstract
Description

[0002] The laser induced breakdown spectroscopy system focuses ultrashort pulse laser on the sample surface to form plasma, and uses a spectrometer to analyze the plasma emission spectrum to identify the elemental composition of the sample.

[0003] When performing laser induced breakdown spectroscopy detection on samples, the environmental atmosphere in which the samples are located has a certain influence on the detection accuracy. Some elements will have different spectral characteristics in different gas environments.

Currently, the protective gas atmosphere is mainly formed by a gas bin structure. However, the gas bin structure is relatively closed. In multi-sample detection, the gas bin structure is prone to cross-contamination between samples. For example, residues from the previous group of samples may be retained in the gas bin structure and interfere with the detection results of the next group of samples, thereby affecting the accuracy of the detection results.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0041] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to example embodiments. It should be understood that the discussion of these embodiments is only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the subject matter described herein, and the functions and arrangements of the elements discussed may be changed without departing from the scope of protection of the contents of this specification. Each example may omit, replace or add various processes or components as needed. In addition, the features described relative to some examples may also be combined in other examples.
[0042] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a first aspect, the present invention discloses a laser induced breakdown spectroscopy detection system, comprising a base 100, a conveying member 140 and a protection unit 200; a mounting frame 110 is fixed on the base 100, a pulse laser 120 is arranged on the mounting frame 110, and a focusing lens 130 is installed at the transmitting end of the pulse laser 120; the conveying member 140 is arranged on the base 100, and is used to convey a sample 150 to the focusing point of the focusing lens 130;
[0043] See also Figure 4 The protection unit 200 is arranged on the base 100 and is located between the focusing lens 130 and the conveying member 140, including a stand 210 arranged on the base 100, a mounting shell 220 fixed on the stand 210, a lifting platform 230 that can be lifted and lowered in the mounting shell 220, and a cover tube 240 arranged on the lifting platform 230, wherein the mounting shell 220 is provided with a slide rail 221 that is slidably matched with the lifting platform 230, and the cover tube 240 is provided with a purge member 260 for blowing protection to the sample 150 to be tested; a light path collector 160 for collecting spectra is provided on one side of the cover tube 240 to transmit the light signal emitted by the plasma to the spectrometer for analysis.
[0044] Specifically, the samples 150 are placed on the conveying member 140 in sequence, and the sample 150 is conveyed to the focusing point of the focusing lens 130 by the conveying member 140, and the lifting platform 230 is moved downward until the cover tube 240 is covered on the outer periphery of the corresponding sample 150, and the sample 150 is purged with argon by the purge member 260, so that the environment around the sample 150 is filled with argon, thereby achieving a protective gas atmosphere; a high-energy laser pulse is generated by the pulse laser 120, and the laser pulse is focused on the surface of the sample 150 through the focusing lens 130, so that a small part of the material on the surface of the sample 150 instantly undergoes ablation, dissociation, atomization and ionization processes to form plasma, and the excited atoms and ions will emit secondary light of a specific wavelength when returning to the ground state, and the secondary light can be collected and resolved by a spectrometer.
[0045] It is worth noting that the present invention performs argon purge on the sample 150 through the purge member 260, so that the environment around the sample 150 is filled with argon gas to form a protective gas atmosphere, thereby effectively reducing the influence of oxygen and nitrogen in the environment on the plasma, reducing background interference, and improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the spectral signal. The protective gas atmosphere helps to improve the excitation efficiency of the plasma and the intensity of the spectral signal, thereby improving the detection accuracy and making the detection result more accurate and reliable.
[0046] In addition, each sample 150 is protected by argon gas through an independent cover tube 240 and a purge piece 260 before testing, reducing the risk of residues from the previous sample being brought into the next sample testing area, effectively preventing cross contamination, and ensuring the accuracy of the test results; after each sample test is completed, the test area can be cleaned by the purge piece 260, further reducing the impact of the residue and improving the stability and reliability of the system.
[0047] For further information, see Figure 2 The conveying member 140 includes a conveying frame 141 fixed on the base 100, a conveying belt 142 for carrying the sample 150 is rotatably mounted on the conveying frame 141, and a conveying motor 143 for driving the conveying belt 142 is mounted at one end of the conveying frame 141;
[0048] Specifically, the samples 150 are arranged in sequence on the conveyor belt 142, and the conveyor belt 142 is driven to move by the conveying motor 143, so that the samples 150 can be supplied to the detection area one by one, and the samples 150 after detection can be removed from the detection area.
[0049] In one embodiment, considering that the conveyor belt 142 has a certain flexibility, when the cover tube 240 is pressed downward on the conveyor belt 142, the downward pressure will cause the conveyor belt 142 to bend downward, thereby affecting the flatness of the entire conveyor belt 142, and thus easily causing the sample 150 to slip, affecting the consistency of the detection position; for this reason, please refer to Figure 3 A lifting guide rod 211 is vertically fixed on the platform 210, a support platform 212 is slidably sleeved on the lifting guide rod 211, and the support platform 212 is located below the conveyor belt 142. A pressing member 250 for driving the lifting platform 230 to move synchronously with the support platform 212 is provided on the mounting housing 220;
[0050] Specifically, in the initial state, the lifting platform 230 and the cover cylinder 240 are retracted upward into the mounting sleeve 220, and the support platform 212 is also located at the lower end of the lifting guide rod 211 and separated from the conveyor belt 142, thereby not affecting the normal conveying of the sample 150 by the conveyor belt 142; when the conveyor belt 142 conveys one group of samples 150 to the detection position, the lifting platform 230 and the support platform 212 are driven by the clamping member 250 to move toward each other, that is, the lifting platform 230 moves downward, and the support platform 212 moves upward at the same time, until the lower end of the cover cylinder 240 is just buckled on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 142, and the support platform 212 is just in contact with the lower surface of the conveyor belt 142, so as to realize the compression and fixation of the conveyor belt 142, and the conveyor belt 142 remains vertically in a horizontal state unchanged, and at the same time, the sample 150 to be tested is covered in the cover cylinder 240 to isolate the sample 150 to be tested from the external environment, so as to facilitate the accuracy of subsequent laser induced breakdown spectroscopy detection.
[0051] It should be noted that when the cover cylinder 240 moves downward and buckles on the conveyor belt 142, the support platform 212 moves upward and fits with the lower belt surface of the conveyor belt 142, which can effectively prevent the conveyor belt 142 from bending downward under the action of the downward pressure and maintain the flatness of the conveyor belt 142; the pressing member 250 drives the lifting platform 230 and the support platform 212 to move synchronously, ensuring that the cover cylinder 240 and the support platform 212 reach the predetermined position at the same time, realizing uniform compression of the conveyor belt 142, and further preventing the deformation of the conveyor belt 142;
[0052] The support platform 212 fits against the lower surface of the conveyor belt 142, ensuring that the conveyor belt 142 remains horizontal during the detection process, preventing the sample 150 from slipping, helping to improve the consistency of the detection position of the sample 150, ensuring that the laser can be accurately focused on the sample surface during each detection, improving the accuracy and repeatability of the detection, and reducing the detection position deviation caused by deformation of the conveyor belt 142 and sample slippage, thereby improving the reliability and consistency of the detection results.
[0053] For further information, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The pressing member 250 includes a pressing motor 251 fixed on the mounting sleeve 220, the output end of the pressing motor 251 is connected to a gear 252, a first rack 253 is fixed to the lifting platform 230 through a connecting column 231, a through slot 222 for accommodating the connecting column 231 is provided on the mounting sleeve 220, a second rack 254 is fixed to the support platform 212, and the first rack 253 and the second rack 254 are both meshed with the gear 252;
[0054] Specifically, after the conveyor belt 142 conveys the sample 150 to be tested to the detection position, the gear 252 is driven to rotate by the clamping motor 251, and the lifting platform 230 and the support platform 212 are driven to move toward each other synchronously under the meshing transmission of the gear 252 and the first rack rack 253 and the second rack rack 254, until the cover tube 240 and the support platform 212 are in contact with the upper and lower belt surfaces of the conveyor belt 142 at the same time, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of the conveyor belt 142 and the wrapping of the sample 150 to be tested.
[0055] For further information, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The purge member 260 includes an air supply cavity 261 provided in the cover tube 240, a purge ring 262 is rotatably installed in the air supply cavity 261, a plurality of air outlets 263 are circumferentially provided on the purge ring 262, and a rotating driving member for driving the purge ring 262 is provided on the inner wall of the cover tube 240;
[0056] Specifically, during the detection process, the gas supply cavity 261 is connected to an external argon source so that argon fills the gas supply cavity 261, and the argon enters the purge ring 262 and is blown out from each gas outlet 263. The purge ring 262 is driven by a rotating driving member to rotate continuously in a circumferential direction, so that each gas outlet 263 can orbit around the sample 150 at the center, and the sample 150 is wrapped by the circumferentially ejected argon gas flow, so that the sample 150 is always wrapped in a stable argon protective atmosphere to reduce background interference and improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the spectral signal. The protective gas atmosphere helps to improve the excitation efficiency of the plasma and the intensity of the spectral signal, thereby improving the detection accuracy and making the detection results more accurate and reliable.
[0057] Accordingly, see Figure 8 The rotary drive member includes a rotary motor 264 fixed on the inner wall of the cover tube 240, the output end of the rotary motor 264 is connected to a friction wheel 265, and the purge ring 262 is provided with a friction ring 266 adapted to the friction wheel 265;
[0058] Specifically, the friction wheel 265 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 264, and the friction force between the friction wheel 265 and the friction ring 266 is utilized to drive the friction ring 266 to rotate circumferentially, thereby driving the purge ring 262 to rotate circumferentially relative to the cover tube 240, so as to achieve circumferential argon purge protection for the sample 150 to be tested.
[0059] It is worth noting that the purge ring 262 is driven to rotate continuously in the circumferential direction by the rotating drive member, so that each gas outlet 263 can orbit around the sample 150 at the center, ensuring that the argon gas flow is evenly wrapped around the sample 150 to form a stable argon protective atmosphere; the circumferential purge design ensures that the argon gas flow is evenly distributed, reducing the detection error caused by uneven gas flow, and improving the stability and reliability of the system; in addition, the design of the friction wheel 265 and the friction ring 266 can smoothly drive the purge ring 262 to rotate, avoiding the destruction of the argon protective atmosphere due to vibration, and further improving the stability of the system.
[0060] In yet another embodiment, see Figure 8 The cover tube 240 is also provided with an elastically retractable annular sealing airbag 270, and the annular sealing airbag 270 is located below the purge ring 262; during the argon purge process, the annular sealing airbag 270 is inflated to expand radially and seal and wrap the upper end surface of the sample 150 to be tested;
[0061] Specifically, the annular sealing airbag 270 is made of a flexible material such as silicone. When argon purging is performed, the inside of the annular sealing airbag 270 is inflated to cause the annular sealing airbag 270 to expand radially, and the inner circle diameter of the lower end of the annular sealing airbag 270 is reduced until it contacts the upper end surface of the sample 150 and wraps and seals the sample 150. In this way, the argon gas sprayed by the purge ring 262 can completely wrap the sample 150. Since the mass of argon gas is greater than that of air, it settles in the lower space inside the cover tube 240, so that the sample 150 is always in a stable argon protection atmosphere. As the argon gas blown out by the purge ring 262 gradually increases, the air inside the cover tube 240 is gradually squeezed upward, thereby ensuring the stability of the gas protection environment inside the cover tube 240.
[0062] It is worth noting that the annular sealing airbag 270 is made of a flexible material such as silicone, etc., and can expand radially after inflation, contact the upper end surface of the sample 150 and wrap and seal it, which can effectively prevent outside air from entering the inside of the cover tube 240, ensuring the stability and purity of the argon protection atmosphere; through the sealing effect of the annular sealing airbag 270, the loss of argon caused by leakage and the mixing of outside air are reduced, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the detection environment; because argon is heavier than air, the inflated annular sealing airbag 270 can effectively settle argon in the lower space inside the cover tube 240, so that the sample 150 is always in a stable argon protection atmosphere; as the argon blown out by the purge ring 262 gradually increases, the air inside the cover tube 240 is gradually squeezed upward, further ensuring the stability of the gas protection environment inside the cover tube 240, reducing background interference, and improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the spectral signal;
[0063] The sealing effect of the annular sealing airbag 270 can effectively prevent the sample 150 from being contaminated by the outside world during the detection process, maintain the purity of the sample, and improve the accuracy of the detection result;
[0064] The annular sealing airbag 270 can be inflated and deflated quickly, ensuring the timely formation and release of the argon protective atmosphere during the detection process, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the system. The flexible material of the annular sealing airbag 270 can absorb some vibrations, reduce vibrations caused by airflow impact, and further improve the stability of the system.
[0065] For further information, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The bottom of the cover tube 240 is provided with a blowing groove 241, and the cover tube 240 is provided with a first air passage 242 communicating with the blowing groove 241 and a second air passage 243 communicating with the annular sealing airbag 270, respectively. The cover tube 240 is provided with a switching member 280 adapted to the first air passage 242 and the second air passage 243; when the cover tube 240 moves downward to its position, the switching member 280 only connects the air supply cavity 261 with the second air passage 243; when the cover tube 240 moves upward to reset, the switching member 280 only connects the second air passage 243 with the first air passage 242;
[0066] Specifically, after the cover tube 240 moves downward and is pressed against the conveyor belt 142, the switching member 280 switches its state, so that the gas supply chamber 261 is connected to the second gas channel 243, so that during the argon gas purge, the argon gas in the gas supply chamber 261 is used to inflate the annular sealing airbag 270, so as to drive the annular sealing airbag 270 to expand and wrap and seal the sample 150;
[0067] After the detection is completed, the cover tube 240 moves upward and resets, and the switching member 280 switches the state again, so that the second air channel 243 is connected to the first air channel 242, so that the argon gas inside the annular sealing airbag 270 is ejected from the blowing groove 241 to achieve the blowing and cleaning of the inner wall of the cover tube 240, remove the debris, dust and other pollutants generated during the detection process, avoid interference with the next cycle of detection, and at the same time achieve the reuse of argon gas.
[0068] Accordingly, see Figure 8 and Fig.10 The switching member 280 includes a flexible capsule 281 disposed at the lower end of the cover tube 240, a slide plate 283 is vertically slidably disposed in the cover tube 240, a push plate 282 connected to the flexible capsule 281 is fixed at the lower end of the slide plate 283, a third air passage 286 is opened in the slide plate 283, and a first notch 287 and a second notch 288 are respectively opened at the upper and lower ends of the third air passage 286;
[0069] Specifically, when the cover tube 240 moves downward to its position, the flexible capsule sheet 281 contacts the upper belt surface of the conveyor belt 142, thereby pushing the slide plate 283 upward through the push plate 282, so that the upper end of the slide plate 283 extends into the air supply cavity 261, the first notch 287 communicates with the air supply cavity 261, and the second notch 288 communicates with the second air channel 243, so as to realize the inflation of the annular sealing airbag 270;
[0070] When the cover tube 240 moves upward and resets, the flexible capsule 281 returns to its initial position, and the slide plate 283 slides down until the first notch 287 is connected to the second air channel 243, and the second notch 288 is connected to the first air channel 242, so as to discharge the argon gas in the annular sealing airbag 270 and blow it out from the blowing groove 241.
[0071] Furthermore, in order to achieve accurate switching of the state of the switching element 280, please refer to Fig.10 A guide rod 284 is vertically fixed on the push plate 282, and the guide rod 284 is slidably connected to the cover tube 240. A spring 285 is movably sleeved on the guide rod 284;
[0072] Specifically, when the cover tube 240 is separated from the conveyor belt 142, the push plate 282 can push the flexible bag sheet 281 to the lower end under the elastic force of the spring 285. At this time, the second notch 288 is just connected to the first airway 242 to ensure that the argon gas in the annular sealing airbag 270 is discharged smoothly, and the effect of blowing and cleaning is achieved at the same time.
[0073] It is worth noting that, through the switching mechanism of the switching member 280, after the detection is completed, the argon gas inside the annular sealing airbag 270 can be ejected from the blowing groove 241 to blow and clean the inner wall of the cover tube 240, which not only realizes the reuse of argon gas, but also reduces the waste of argon gas and reduces the detection cost;
[0074] In addition, the design of the switching member 280 realizes automatic switching of the airway. When the cover tube 240 moves downward into position, the flexible capsule 281 contacts the conveyor belt 142, and pushes the slide plate 283 through the push plate 282, so that the first slot 287 is connected to the air supply chamber 261, and the second slot 288 is connected to the second airway 243, thereby realizing the inflation of the annular sealing airbag 270; when the cover tube 240 moves upward and resets, the flexible capsule 281 returns to its initial position, and the slide plate 283 slides down, so that the first slot 287 is connected to the second airway 243, and the second slot 288 is connected to the first airway 242, thereby realizing the discharge and blowing of the argon gas in the annular sealing airbag 270.
[0075] The second aspect of the present invention discloses a detection method of a laser induced breakdown spectroscopy detection system, comprising the following steps:
[0076] S1, the conveying member 140 conveys the sample 150 to be tested to the testing position;
[0077] S2, the cover tube 240 moves downward to cover the sample 150 to be tested;
[0078] S3, the purge member 260 purges the hood tube 240 with argon gas to form a protective gas atmosphere that envelops the sample 150 to be tested;
[0079] S4, the pulse laser 120 generates laser pulses, and the laser pulses are focused on the surface of the sample 150 through the focusing lens 130;
