Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of powder grinding equipment, and particularly to a molecular biology sample powder grinding device. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, a sample powder grinding device is used in molecular biology test detection work to facilitate subsequent observation and detection work. The existing laboratory simple powder grinding device in the prior art realizes the powder grinding work by manually applying pressure for grinding, with low work efficiency and unable to well meet the actual needs of people.

[0003] For this reason, the Chinese patent with the publication number "CN211755782U" discloses a "molecular biology sample powder grinding device", the main structure of which includes an outer frame in the shape of a semi-square-shaped bent plate. A round table base and a grinding tool are arranged in the inner cavity of the outer frame. The lower end of the round table base is fixedly connected to the outer frame, the upper end of the round table base is provided with a grinding tool, the upper end of the grinding tool is provided with a lifting column, the upper end of the lifting column penetrates through the outer frame, a control device is arranged between the grinding tool and the lifting column, and the lower end of the control device extends into the grinding tool. A transmission device is arranged at the upper end of the outer frame, and the lower end of the transmission device contacts the lifting column. When the molecular biology sample powder grinding device is in use, the biological sample to be ground is placed in the conical groove on the grinding tool seat. Manually rotate the grinding tool. Due to the spring rebound, the conical part of the original grinding tool will fit with the conical groove of the grinding tool seat. In this way, the sample is padded in the conical groove of the grinding tool seat. Rotate the grinding tool, and through the misaligned grinding between the grinding tool and the grinding tool seat, the powder grinding work is realized. At the same time, the rotation of the grinding tool drives the annular gear, and through the transmission of gear one, the worm rotates, and then drives gear two to rotate. The top body is controlled to rotate through the shaft rod. During the rotation of the top body, the lifting column is gradually jacked up. In this way, during the rotation of the top body, the lifting column repeatedly rises and falls, and pressure is applied to the control block through the spring, thereby controlling the grinding tool. In this way, during the cooperative grinding of the grinding tool and the grinding tool seat, the grinding tool gradually applies pressure to the sample to achieve sufficient grinding.

[0004] It can be known from the above description that when the above-mentioned molecular biology sample powder grinding device grinds, the biological sample needs to be placed in the conical groove on the grinding tool seat. And during the grinding process, due to the grinding pressure from the center, the sample particles will move outward, resulting in some larger particles not being ground in time. It is necessary to repeatedly move the particles located on the periphery to the grinding center to achieve a more refined grinding effect. Therefore, its grinding efficiency is low.

[0015] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0016] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A molecular biology sample grinding device includes a bottom support base 1, a first fixed substrate 3 fixedly installed above the bottom support base 1 through a first support rod 2, a first component installation port 4 provided at the center of the first fixed substrate, a second fixed substrate 6 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bottom support base 1 and directly above the first fixed substrate 3 through a second support rod 5, a second component installation port 7 provided at the center of the second fixed substrate 6, a third fixed substrate 9 fixedly installed directly above the second fixed substrate 6 through a third support rod 8, and a rotor perforation 12 provided at the center of the third fixed substrate 9.

[0017] In order to achieve multi-functional use of a single machine and thus improve the effective utilization rate of the kinetic energy of the driving motor 102, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4, it is necessary to set up a screw-feeding grinding mechanism 10, which is internally provided with an upper grinding disc 105 and a lower grinding disc 106 that can grind molecular samples during relative rotation, a material storage housing 107 that is arranged on the upper surface of the upper grinding disc 105 and fixedly installed in the second component mounting port 7 and can pre-store sample materials, a driving motor 102 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the third fixed substrate 9, and a screw 1011 that is placed in the material storage housing 107 and can rotate with the rotor 103 of the driving motor 102 and drive the samples inside the material storage housing 107 to achieve a downward conveying effect. The molecular material is put into the interior of the material storage housing 107. Under the action of gravity, the molecular material will enter the material conveying cavity 109. The driving motor 102 is started, and the rotor 103 will drive the screw 1011 to rotate. At this time, the material around the screw 1011 will move downward. When the pressure of the downward movement of the material is greater than the elastic strength of the helical spring 119, the material will be pressed between the upper grinding disc 105 and the lower grinding disc 106. The rotating lower grinding disc 106 will make the material move from the center to the outside, and a friction grinding effect will be achieved during the movement process, so that the kinetic energy of the driving motor 102 can not only achieve the pressure conveying of the material, but also achieve the grinding effect on the molecular sample, thereby improving the effective utilization rate of the kinetic energy of the driving motor 102.

[0018] For the specific structure of the screw-feeding grinding mechanism 10, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , including a motor fixing seat 101 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the third fixed substrate 9, an upper grinding disc 105 and a lower grinding disc 106 symmetrically arranged up and down. The driving motor 102 in an inverted state is fixedly installed inside the motor fixing seat 101. The rotor 103 of the driving motor 102 penetrates through the motor fixing seat 101 and the rotor perforation 12. An axially installed groove 1010 with an inward concave structure is arranged at the center of the bottom end of the lower grinding disc 106. A material storage housing 107 with an integral structure is arranged on the upper surface of the upper grinding disc 105. A funnel-shaped cavity 108 with an open top is arranged in the top area of the material storage housing 107. A material conveying cavity 109 with an open bottom end and a top end communicating with the bottom end of the funnel-shaped cavity 108 is arranged in the bottom area of the material storage housing 107 and the interior of the upper grinding disc 105. The bottom end of the rotor 103 is installed with a screw 1011 located inside the funnel-shaped cavity 108 and the material conveying cavity 109 through a coupling 104. The structural radius of the upper port of the funnel-shaped cavity 108 is greater than that of its lower port, and the structural radius of the lower port of the funnel-shaped cavity 108 is the same as the structural radius of the material conveying cavity 109. After the driving motor 102 is started, the rotation of the screw 1011 makes the material around it generate a downward conveying direction.

[0019] To achieve the function of adjusting the grinding pressure, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , it is necessary to set up a grinding pressure adjusting mechanism 11, which internally has a longitudinal hollow housing 111 fixedly installed in the first component mounting port 4 and hollow inside, a helical spring 119 placed inside the longitudinal hollow housing 111 and in a compressed state, a longitudinal telescopic rod 1110 that can exert an upward elastic force on the lower grinding disc 106, and an external threaded rod 117 that can change the elastic pressure of the helical spring 119. By rotating the rotating cap 118, due to the connection relationship of the threaded structure, the external threaded rod 117 will drive the lower grinding disc 106 to move longitudinally, thereby changing the distance between the lower limit plate 115 and the upper limit plate 116, and further changing the elastic strength of the helical spring 119 during operation. Finally, the pressure between the upper grinding disc 105 and the lower grinding disc 106 during grinding will be changed, achieving the function of adjusting the grinding pressure.

[0020] Regarding the specific structure of the grinding pressure adjusting mechanism 11, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , including a longitudinal hollow housing 111 fixedly installed in the first component mounting port 4. The interior of the longitudinal hollow housing 111 is provided with a longitudinal component activity cavity 112. The bottom end of the longitudinal hollow housing 111 is provided with an internal threaded hole 113 communicating with the bottom end of the longitudinal component activity cavity 112. The top end of the longitudinal hollow housing 111 is provided with a rod body perforation 114 communicating with the top end of the longitudinal component activity cavity 112. Inside the longitudinal hollow housing 111 and located within the longitudinal component activity cavity 112, there are placed a lower limit plate 115 and an upper limit plate 116 that can move axially along the longitudinal component activity cavity 112. A compressed helical spring 119 is placed between the lower limit plate 115 and the upper limit plate 116. The bottom end of the lower limit plate 115 is installed with a rotatable external threaded rod 117 through a bearing. The rod body of the external threaded rod 117 is installed in the internal threaded hole 113 through a threaded structure. The bottom end of the external threaded rod 117 is fixedly installed with a rotating cap 118. The upper surface of the upper limit plate 116 is fixedly installed with a longitudinal telescopic rod 1110 passing through the rod body perforation 114. The top end of the longitudinal telescopic rod 1110 is installed inside the shaft body installation groove 1010 through a bearing. The threaded structure includes an internal threaded structure provided in the internal threaded hole 113 and an external threaded structure provided on the rod body of the external threaded rod 117, and the internal threaded structure matches the external threaded structure.

[0021] In use, according to the hardness of the molecular sample, the rotating cap 118 is rotated. Due to the connection relationship of the threaded structure, the outer threaded rod 117 will drive the lower grinding disc 106 to move longitudinally, and finally the pressure between the upper grinding disc 105 and the lower grinding disc 106 during grinding will be changed, so that the pressure is sufficient to grind the molecular sample into powder. The molecular material is put into the interior of the material storage housing 107. Under the action of gravity, the molecular material will enter the material conveying cavity 109. The driving motor 102 is started, and the rotor 103 will drive the screw 1011 to rotate. At this time, the material located around the screw 1011 will move downward. When the pressure of the downward movement of the material is greater than the elastic strength of the helical spring 119, the material will be pressed between the upper grinding disc 105 and the lower grinding disc 106. The rotating lower grinding disc 106 will cause the material to move from the center to the outside, and a frictional grinding effect will be achieved during the movement process.

[0022] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
