[0048] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0050] The anode module 200 is sealed and docked with the side of the cathode chamber 110 and has a built-in counter electrode 240;

[0051] The exhaust module 300 includes a gas outlet block 310, which is sealed and docked with the bottom surface of the cathode chamber 110. A receiving groove 311 is defined in the middle of the gas outlet block 310 and is positioned directly below the first liquid guide port 111. A negative pressure exhaust connector 312 is provided on the sidewall of the gas outlet block 310. The inner wall of the receiving groove 311 is connected to the negative pressure exhaust connector 312 via a horizontal hole. A sample sealing unit 320 is embedded in the receiving groove 311. The sample sealing unit 320 is used to allow the electrolyte to contact the sample and extract the reaction gas.

[0052] The turning unit 400 is detachably connected to the exhaust module 300 and is used to drive the exhaust module 300 to turn over, so that the exhaust module 300 or the anode module 200 is alternately vertical;

[0053] The consumables making unit 500 is placed in the flipping unit 400 to make test consumables during the flipping process. The negative pressure exhaust connector is connected to the mass spectrometer through an air pipe.

[0054] In the above scheme:

[0055] 1. The above-mentioned electrochemical reaction cell can simultaneously realize in-situ analysis and detection of Raman (surface substances) and mass spectrometry (gas products), improving the efficiency of research on sample reaction mechanisms, eliminating the need to use two sets of equipment to complete analysis and detection separately; electrochemical reactions such as hydrogen evolution and CO2 reduction;

[0056] 2. The overall three-dimensional design of each module is convenient for the placement of internal materials of the module and for subsequent docking, which can simplify the connection of liquid and gas lines and facilitate maintenance;

[0057] 3. The gas derivation module is equipped with a sample sealing unit 320 to encapsulate the sample, which can ensure that there is no leakage of the electrolyte and at the same time ensure the directional transmission of the gas. The outer side of the gas derivation block 310 is provided with a negative pressure drainage joint, which can extract the reaction gas under negative pressure, thereby improving the gas collection speed and mass spectrometry sensitivity.

[0058] 4. The anode module 200 is side-mounted, making it difficult to place the various accessories. To address this issue, a flip unit 400 is provided. The flip unit 400 can drive the exhaust module 300 to rotate, so that the exhaust module 300 or the anode module 200 is alternately vertical. In this way, when the exhaust module 300 is vertical, the tester can place the exhaust accessories one by one from bottom to top. Similarly, when the anode module 200 is vertical, the tester can also place the anode accessories from bottom to top.

[0059] 5. The consumables production unit 500 can produce the proton interaction membrane and hydrophobic membrane 323 required for each test, without the need for manual cutting and production. When the flipping unit 400 flips, it can drive the consumables production unit 500 to move, so that the consumables production unit 500 can automatically complete the cutting action without waiting. After the flipping is completed, the experimenter can directly remove the cut film.

[0060] As a preferred embodiment, the four sides of the cathode chamber 110 are respectively provided with a first liquid inlet connector 150, a first liquid outlet connector 160, a reference electrode 140, and a second liquid inlet 112. During the test, the electrolyte is input into the cathode chamber 110 through the first liquid inlet connector 150 and then output through the first liquid outlet connector 160. The electrolyte can be transferred to the holding tank 311 through the first liquid outlet 111. The Raman spectrometer monitors the changes in the surface material of the reference electrode 140 in real time through the quartz window.

[0061] As a preferred embodiment, the anode module 200 includes an anode chamber 210, a counter electrode 240 is installed at one end of the anode chamber 210, a second liquid inlet joint 220 is installed at the other end, a second liquid discharge joint 230 is installed on the top surface of the anode chamber 210, and a third liquid guide port 211 is provided on the inner wall of the anode chamber 210. A first sealing gasket 250, a proton interaction membrane 270 and a second sealing gasket 260 are provided between the anode chamber 210 and the cathode chamber 110. The first sealing gasket 250 and the second sealing gasket 260 have the same structure. A fourth liquid guide port 252 is provided in the middle of the first sealing gasket 250, and the proton interaction membrane 270 is placed in the middle between the first sealing gasket 250 and the second sealing gasket 260. The proton interaction membrane 270 is used to allow protons in the liquid to flow between the cathode chamber and the anode chamber. The electrolyte enters the anode compartment 210 through the second liquid inlet connector 220 and is then output through the second liquid discharge connector 230. The protons in the cathode compartment 110 and the anode compartment 210 circulate through the proton interaction membrane 270. The first sealing gasket 250 and the second sealing gasket 260 can achieve a double-layer seal to prevent liquid leakage. The area of ​​the proton interaction membrane 270 is larger than the cross-section of the fourth liquid guide port.

[0062] As a preferred embodiment, the anode bin 210 is provided with first through-holes 212 at the four corners, each set of first through-holes 212 having a set of first guide rods 280 passing through it, and the first sealing gasket 250 is provided with second through-holes 251 at the four corners. The first sealing gasket 250 and the second sealing gasket 260 are both mounted on the first guide rods 280. The inner ends of the four sets of first guide rods 280 are vertically fixed to the side walls of the cathode bin 110, and the outer ends of the four sets of first guide rods 280 are fixedly connected to the baffle 290. The outward-moving anode bin 210 is stopped on the inner side of the baffle 290, and an interference screw 291 is screwed onto the center of the baffle 290. The first sealing gasket 250, the second sealing gasket 260, and the anode bin 210 are all mounted on the first guide rods 280, realizing the storage of the three components. There is no need to store them separately elsewhere. The experimenter only needs to place the proton interaction membrane 270.

[0063] The first guide rod 280 can prevent the first sealing gasket 250, the second sealing gasket 260 and the anode bin 210 from falling when flipping;

[0064] After the anode chamber 210 is rotated to vertical, the experimenter can easily place the proton interaction membrane 270 between the first sealing gasket 250 and the second sealing gasket 260, and then rotate the contact screw 291 to push the anode chamber 210 upward, so that the first sealing gasket 250, the proton interaction membrane 270, the second sealing gasket 260 and the anode chamber 210 are tightly fitted to the side wall of the cathode chamber 110, so as to avoid the proton interaction membrane 270 from being offset when it is subsequently flipped upward.

[0065] As a preferred embodiment, the sample sealing unit 320 includes a third sealing gasket 321, a fourth sealing gasket 322, a hydrophobic membrane 323, and a porous ceramic sheet 324, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The third sealing gasket 321 and the fourth sealing gasket 322 have the same structure, and the sample 800 is placed between the third sealing gasket 321 and the fourth sealing gasket 322. A fifth liquid guide port 325 is defined within the third sealing gasket 321. The third sealing gasket 321 and the fourth sealing gasket 322 seal and position the sample so that the electrolyte can only contact the sample through the fifth liquid guide port 325. The gas generated by the reaction can be discharged through the hydrophobic membrane 323, while the liquid is blocked by the hydrophobic membrane 323.

[0066] As a preferred embodiment, the proton interaction membrane is Nafion 117; the hydrophobic breathable membrane is made of PTFE; the porous ceramic has a pore size of 10-50 μm; and each sealing gasket is made of silicone.

[0067] The traditional module docking is positioned by bolt assembly, which is cumbersome to operate. The following solution is provided for quickly positioning the anode bin 210 and the gas outlet module: the gas outlet block 310 is provided with third through-holes at the four corners, and each set of third through-holes is penetrated by a set of second guide rods 330. The top ends of the four sets of second guide rods 330 are vertically fixedly connected to the cathode bin 110, and the bottom ends are vertically fixedly connected to the base 340. The outside of the second guide rods 330 is sheathed with springs 331, which are placed at the bottom of the gas outlet block 310.

[0068] 1. The second guide rod 330 can support and position the cathode bin 110. In this way, the position of the cathode bin 110 can be determined by simply docking the gas outlet block 310 and the anode bin 210 on the side wall of the cathode bin 110.

[0069] 2. When the gas derivation block 310 is docked with the bottom surface of the cathode bin 110, the spring 331 can be stretched, and the test personnel buckle the first pressure roller frame 360 ​​and the second pressure roller frame 370. The spring 331 and the pressure roller frame constrain the gas derivation block 310 up and down to achieve rapid positioning of the gas derivation block 310. At the same time, the second pressure roller frame 370 presses on the side of the anode bin 210 to achieve secondary positioning of the anode bin 210.

[0072] 2. The base 350 and the reaction cell above it can be disassembled for maintenance or work independently, and can also be docked with the insertion rod 443. When docking, the insertion rod 443 is inserted into the slot 351, the restraining plate 442 stops the base 350, and then the nut 444 is screwed onto the end of the insertion rod 443 to achieve the clamping and positioning of the base 350;
