Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of environmental analysis instruments, in particular to a purge and capture device for water quality detection. Background Art
[0002] Purge and trap devices for water quality testing are used to pre-treat water samples and improve test accuracy. They use carrier gas to bubble through a bubble plate into the water sample. The carrier gas fully contacts the water sample, sweeping trace amounts of target substances, such as volatile organic compounds, into the vapor phase. These volatile substances are then adsorbed and concentrated by a trap, separating them from other impurities such as water. The trap is then heated and desorbed with carrier gas, delivering the concentrated target substances to the testing instrument. This enables accurate detection of trace contaminants in the water, providing critical evidence for assessing water quality.
[0003] In the existing water quality testing process, if the target substance in the water sample is highly volatile and the detection accuracy requirements are mainly focused on fast and stable detection of the target substance, pure carrier gas can be used at this time.
[0004] When the target volatile substance in a water sample is low in concentration and improved purge efficiency and capture effectiveness are needed, a mixed gas is used. This gas mixture leverages the characteristics of different gases to enhance the purge capability of the target substance. For example, certain organic pollutants have low solubility and low volatility in water, making them difficult to purge efficiently with a single pure carrier gas. Complete removal of these substances from the water requires a significant time, and the addition of other gas components to the mixed gas can improve the mass transfer process between the bubbles and the liquid, thus increasing purge efficiency.
[0005] In the purge-and-trap process for water quality testing, when using pure carrier gas to purge water samples, using a large-aperture bubble plate results in a small contact area between the large bubbles and the water sample, resulting in low mass transfer efficiency. This makes it difficult to efficiently transfer volatile substances from the water sample to the gas phase, compromising detection sensitivity and accuracy. When using a mixed gas purge, the highly viscous gas mixture, if still using a small-aperture bubble plate, will be too high to allow the gas mixture to pass smoothly, severely hindering the proper purge process.

[0046] Refer to the following Figures 1-11 The following describes a purge and capture device for water quality detection provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
[0047] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the purging and trapping device for water quality testing provided in the embodiment of the present invention is particularly suitable for purging and trapping volatile gases in various water samples for water quality testing. Of course, it can also be used for purging and trapping operations of other samples containing volatile gases such as soil samples.
[0048] Specifically, the purge and capture device for water quality detection provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a purge component 100 , a bubble generating component 200 and a driving mechanism 300 .
[0049] The purge assembly 100 provides purge power and a transport medium. By introducing a carrier gas (e.g., pure carrier gas or a mixed gas), the purge assembly 100 removes volatile substances from the water sample. The carrier gas flows within the device, creating a driving force that promotes the transfer of volatile substances from the liquid phase to the gas phase, thereby separating and enriching the target substances in the water sample.
[0050] The bubble generation assembly 200 is used to generate uniform, stable bubbles. When the carrier gas passes through the bubble generation assembly 200, it is dispersed into tiny bubbles that enter the water sample. These tiny bubbles have a large specific surface area, which increases the contact area between the carrier gas and the water sample, improving mass transfer efficiency and enabling more complete transfer of volatile substances from the water to the carrier gas, thereby enhancing the purge and trap effect and detection accuracy.
[0051] The driving mechanism 300 serves as a power source in the purge and capture device for water quality detection, and provides power for the movement of other components, including but not limited to providing carrier gas for the purge assembly 100 .
[0052] It is understood that the drive mechanism 300 can be a common drive form, such as an electric motor, an internal combustion engine, etc. The power source in the drive mechanism 300 can be centralized, transmitting power to other components through a transmission structure; or the power source can be decentralized, with multiple decentralized power sources driving each component separately.
[0053] During the purge and trapping process for water quality testing, different purge gases are required due to the varying properties of volatile substances in the water sample. When using pure carrier gas for purging, a small-aperture bubble plate can generate stable microbubbles, significantly increasing the gas-liquid contact area. This effectively improves the mass transfer efficiency of volatile substances from the water sample to the gas phase, ensuring detection sensitivity and accuracy.
[0054] However, when using mixed gas purging, due to the strong viscosity of the mixed gas, if the small-aperture bubble plate is continued to be used, the gas flow resistance will be too large, affecting the purging process. In this case, a large-aperture bubble plate is required to ensure that the mixed gas can pass smoothly.
[0055] However, the large bubbles formed by the large-aperture bubble plate when used for pure carrier gas purging have poor stability and are easy to break, and cannot effectively and stably carry the substances to be detected in the water, resulting in a low mass transfer rate.
[0056] Based on this, the bubble generating assembly 200 includes a first bubble plate 210 and a second bubble plate 220 . The first bubble plate 210 is used for the mixed gas to pass through, and the second bubble plate 220 is used for the pure carrier gas to pass through.
[0057] Specifically, the purge assembly 100 includes a pure gas connecting pipe 110 and a mixed gas connecting pipe 120. The pure gas connecting pipe 110 is used to introduce pure carrier gas, and the mixed gas connecting pipe 120 is used to introduce mixed gas. A Venturi tube is provided at the connection point between the pure gas connecting pipe 110 and the mixed gas connecting pipe 120.
[0058] The main body of the Venturi tube is composed of a gradually contracting section, a throat and a gradually expanding section connected in sequence.
[0059] When the various gases from the purge assembly 100 intersect at the venturi tube, the various gases enter the venturi tube at their respective initial flow rates and pressures.
[0060] In the converging section, as the cross-sectional area of the pipe decreases, the gas velocity increases and the pressure decreases accordingly. Upon entering the throat, the gas velocity reaches its maximum and the pressure drops to its minimum, forming a low-pressure zone in the throat. Gases from different sources are intensely drawn in and mixed at the throat.
[0061] As the Brownian motion of gas molecules in high-speed flow and low-pressure environment intensifies, the components in the pure carrier gas and the mixed gas can diffuse and penetrate each other more fully, achieving preliminary mixing.
[0062] In the gradual expansion section, the cross-sectional area of the pipe gradually increases, the gas flow rate slows down, the pressure rises, and the mixed gas flows out of the Venturi tube in a relatively stable state and enters the subsequent purge and capture process.
[0063] The purge-and-trap bottle is configured as a spherical tube 500, which is used to hold the water sample and provide a reaction space for the purge-and-trap process. A first bubble plate 210 and a second bubble plate 220 are located within the spherical tube 500, and the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 can switch positions within the spherical tube 500. The aperture of the first bubble plate 210 is larger than the aperture of the second bubble plate 220.
[0064] When in a mixed gas working condition, the outer wall of the first bubble plate 210 is tightly fitted to the inside of the spherical tube 500, and the second bubble plate 220 is out of contact with the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, that is, the first bubble plate 210 is in a sealed state, and the second bubble plate 220 is in an open state; when in a pure carrier gas working condition, the outer wall of the second bubble plate 220 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, and the first bubble plate 210 is out of contact with the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, that is, the second bubble plate 220 is in a sealed state, and the first bubble plate 210 is in an open state.
[0065] When in a mixed gas working state, the mixed gas requires a larger circulation space to reduce resistance due to its strong viscosity. At this time, the outer wall of the first bubble plate 210 fits tightly against the inside of the spherical tube 500 and is in a sealed state. The mixed gas can only enter the water sample in the spherical tube 500 through the larger aperture on the first bubble plate 210. The bubble plate with a larger aperture allows the mixed gas to pass more smoothly, reducing the problem of poor circulation caused by gas viscosity. At the same time, the second bubble plate 220 is out of contact with the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 and is in an open state. It will not cause significant obstruction to the purging path of the mixed gas, thereby ensuring the high efficiency of the mixed gas purging process.
[0066] When operating in a pure carrier gas mode, the pure carrier gas needs to form tiny, stable bubbles during the purge process to increase its contact area with the water sample. Therefore, the outer wall of the second bubble plate 220 is tightly fitted against the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, creating a sealed state. The pure carrier gas enters the water sample through the smaller apertures in the second bubble plate 220, generating tiny bubbles and effectively improving mass transfer efficiency. Simultaneously, the first bubble plate 210 is released from contact with the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, remaining in an open state to avoid unnecessary interference with the flow of the pure carrier gas.
[0067] During the operation of the purge and capture device, after the water sample is injected into the spherical tube 500, the working condition is switched according to the preset detection program and the type of gas used.
[0068] If mixed gas purging is required, the driving mechanism 300 adjusts the first bubble plate 210 to a sealed state, and the mixed gas enters from the mixed gas connecting pipe 120 and enters the water sample through the first bubble plate 210 to perform a purging operation, thereby removing some substances in the water sample that are easily purged by the mixed gas.
[0069] When it is necessary to switch to pure carrier gas purging, the driving mechanism 300 switches the positions of the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 by rotating, so that the second bubble plate 220 is switched to a sealed state, and at the same time the first bubble plate 210 is turned to an open state, and pure carrier gas enters from the pure gas connecting pipe 110, and forms tiny bubbles through the second bubble plate 220 to purge the water sample.
[0070] Thus, by configuring the purge-and-collection bottle as a spherical tube 500 and employing first and second bubble plates 210 and 220 with different apertures, the adaptability of the bubble plates in conventional devices for purging gases of varying properties is resolved. Under mixed gas conditions, this ensures smooth passage of the mixed gas, avoiding purging difficulties caused by gas viscosity. Under pure carrier gas conditions, this improves mass transfer efficiency and enhances the ability to purge target substances in water samples.
[0071] Further, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the driving mechanism 300 includes a rotating frame 310 , and the rotating frame 310 is used to drive the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to switch positions by rotating.
[0072] Specifically, the rotating frame 310 is slidably connected to the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220, and the rotating frame 310 can rotate around its own central axis. When the rotating frame 310 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to switch positions, and the switching process is stable and reliable.
[0073] When mixed gas purging is required, the rotating frame 310 rotates so that the first bubble plate 210 moves above the second bubble plate 220, and the driving mechanism 300 drives the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to move upward, so that the first bubble plate 210 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 and is in a sealed state, and the second bubble plate 220 is detached from the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 and is in an open state.
[0074] When it is necessary to adjust to the pure carrier gas purge working condition, the driving mechanism 300 first drives the first bubble plate 210 to move downward, and then the rotating frame 310 rotates to adjust the second bubble plate 220 to above the first bubble plate 210. After the rotation of the rotating frame 310 is completed, the driving mechanism 300 drives the second bubble plate 220 and the first bubble plate 210 to move upward. The second bubble plate 220 fits tightly against the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 and is in a sealed state. The first bubble plate 210 is in an open state to avoid interference with the flow of pure carrier gas.
[0075] Therefore, by providing the rotating frame 310, the positions of the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 can be switched quickly and accurately, thereby improving the efficiency of switching the purge and capture device between different gas working conditions.
[0076] In other embodiments, the driving mechanism 300 may be directly connected to the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to achieve regulation of the working states of the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 .
[0077] During actual operation, when the purge and capture device for water quality detection needs to switch from one gas purge condition to another, for example, from a pure carrier gas condition to a mixed gas condition, the transmission component enables rotational motion, directly pushing the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to switch positions.
[0078] In one embodiment, Figure 5-Figure 9 As shown, the driving mechanism 300 includes a counterweight structure 320 , which is used to adjust the distance between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 and the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 .
[0079] Specifically, the rotating frame 310 is provided with a plurality of adjustment cylinders 311 , and the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 are slidably connected to the adjustment cylinders 311 , so that the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 can flexibly perform telescopic movements in the adjustment cylinders 311 .
[0080] The counterweight structure 320 includes a plurality of counterweight blocks 321, which are located inside the adjusting cylinder 311 and can slide relative to the adjusting cylinder 311. The counterweight blocks 321 are provided with a third elastic member, which can fit the inner wall of the adjusting cylinder 311 and can drive the counterweight blocks 321 to slide along the inner wall of the adjusting cylinder 311.
[0081] A first chamber and a second chamber are formed in the adjustment cylinder 311. The first chamber connects the counterweight 321 and the first bubble plate 210, while the second chamber connects the counterweight 321 and the second bubble plate 220. This allows the counterweight 321 to drive the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to expand and contract under the action of gravity to adapt to different working conditions.
[0082] When the mixed gas working condition needs to be adjusted and the first bubble plate 210 needs to be closely attached to the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, as the position of the rotating frame 310 changes, the counterweight 321 begins to slide in the adjustment cylinder 311 under the action of gravity.
[0083] Adjusting the position of the rotating frame 310 causes the counterweight 321 to slide vertically, sliding in a direction that increases the pressure in the first chamber. The volume of the first chamber decreases, increasing the pressure, pushing the first bubble plate 210 outward until its outer wall tightly contacts the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, forming a seal. Simultaneously, the volume of the second chamber increases, decreasing the pressure, causing the second bubble plate 220 to contract and break away from the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, resulting in an open state.
[0084] Similarly, when switching to pure carrier gas operation is required, the turret 310 is repositioned, and the counterweight 321 slides, increasing the pressure in the second chamber and decreasing the pressure in the first chamber. The second bubble plate 220 extends and fits tightly against the inner wall of the spherical tube 500, while the first bubble plate 210 retracts, completing the operating state switch.
[0085] Thus, the counterweight structure 320 enables automatic and precise adjustment of the distance between the first and second bubble plates 210, 220 and the inner wall of the spherical tube 500. The positions of the bubble plates can be quickly and accurately switched according to different working conditions, improving the device's response speed and ease of operation.
[0086] At the same time, since the counterweight structure 320 mainly relies on gravity and chamber pressure to drive the expansion and contraction of the bubble plate, it avoids the failure risk caused by complex transmission mechanisms and electronic components, reduces the maintenance cost of the equipment, and improves the stability and service life of the device.
[0087] In one embodiment, when the driving mechanism 300 is required to drive the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 to rotate and switch positions, in order to ensure that the bubble plates are tightly fitted with the inner walls of the spherical tube 500 in the working state and achieve a good sealing effect, there is a certain contact pressure between the bubble plates and the inner walls of the spherical tube 500, so that friction is generated between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 and the inner walls of the spherical tube 500, resulting in increased wear of the bubble plates and the inner walls of the spherical tube 500, thereby shortening the service life of the purge and capture device.
[0088] like Figure 5-Figure 9 As shown, in order to reduce the friction between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 and the spherical tube 500 when rotating and switching, a first elastic member 322 is provided between the counterweight block 321 and the adjustment tube 311 .
[0089] Specifically, the elastic force of the first elastic member 322 always causes the counterweight 321 to be located at the preset position or to have a tendency to approach the preset position.
[0090] When the rotating frame 310 drives the adjustment tube 311 to rotate and approach a horizontal position, the counterweight 321, originally distributed along the axial direction of the adjustment tube 311 under the action of gravity, is now subjected to a gravity force in a direction that is nearly perpendicular to the axis of the adjustment tube 311. This reduces the effect of gravity on the position of the counterweight 321 within the adjustment tube 311. Due to its inherent elastic restoring properties, the first elastic member 322 pushes the counterweight 321 toward the center of the adjustment tube 311.
[0091] As the counterweight 321 moves toward the center, the pressure distribution within the first and second chambers adjusts. The force generated by the pressure differential causes the distance between the first and second bubble plates 210, 220 and the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 to gradually reach a predetermined position. This predetermined position is when the first and second bubble plates 210, 220 are sufficiently away from the inner wall of the spherical tube 500. The rotating frame 310 then continues to rotate, completing the positional switching of the bubble plates. Consequently, as the first and second bubble plates 210, 220 rotate, the contact area and pressure between them and the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 are reduced, thereby reducing friction.
[0092] After the switching is completed, the adjustment cylinder 311 leaves the horizontal position. Under the action of gravity, the counterweight block 321 overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic member 322 and moves to the corresponding working position again. The first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 stretch or shrink again to the corresponding working state of being in contact with or separated from the inner wall of the spherical tube 500 to adapt to the new purge gas working condition.
[0093] Therefore, by providing the first elastic member 322 , the friction between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 and the spherical tube 500 is effectively reduced, which greatly slows down the wear rate of the components.
[0094] In one embodiment, Figure 5-Figure 11 As shown, in order to prevent uneven mixed gas from causing different volatile substances in the water sample to have different opportunities to contact the gas, the purge and capture device for water quality detection provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a guide component 400, which is used to uniformly mix the mixed gas.
[0095] Specifically, the deflector assembly 400 is located between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220. The deflector assembly 400 includes multiple deflectors 410 and a limiting structure 420. The multiple deflectors are arranged at intervals and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the spherical tube 500. Magnetic blocks 411 are provided on both sides of the deflectors 410. The limiting structure 420 is used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the deflectors 410 to stabilize the airflow direction.
[0096] The second bubble plate 220 is provided with a magnetic control component 221. The magnetic control component 221 and the guide plate 410 are staggered in the vertical direction. The magnetic control component 221 controls the rotation of the guide plate 410 through magnetic interaction.
[0097] When in the mixed gas purge mode, the second bubble plate 220 is located below the guide plate 410. At this point, the magnetic control assembly 221 and the magnet block 411 at the closer end of the guide plate 410 repel each other magnetically. The guide plates 410 gradually tilt under the repulsive force. The limiting structure 420 causes multiple guide plates 410 to tilt at the same preset angle, forming a mixed flow channel. This forces the mixed gas to change its flow direction, significantly increasing the frequency of collisions between gas molecules of different components and greatly improving the uniformity of the mixed gas.
[0098] When switching to the pure carrier gas purge mode, the second bubble plate 220 moves above the guide plate 410. At this time, the magnetic control component 221 and the magnet block 411 at the end of the guide plate 410 that is closer to each other are magnetically attracted. The magnetic force of the opposite magnetic poles attracting each other causes the guide plate 410 to quickly rotate to a vertical state. For pure carrier gas, the vertical guide plate 410 can minimize the resistance during the flow of pure carrier gas, ensuring that the pure carrier gas can pass through at a stable and efficient flow rate, thereby improving the purge efficiency.
[0099] Thus, through the flow guide assembly 400, the flow guide plate 410 rotates and tilts during mixed gas purging, ensuring uniform mixing of the mixed gas and ensuring uniform contact between the various volatile substances in the water sample and the mixed gas. For pure carrier gas purging, the flow guide plate 410 is vertically positioned to reduce the flow resistance of the pure carrier gas and improve purging efficiency.
[0100] Further, such as Figure 5-Figure 11 As shown, the driving mechanism 300 includes a sliding block 330, and a sliding groove 340 is provided on the outer wall of the spherical tube 500. When the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 are in a switching state, the sliding block 330 and the sliding groove 340 are used to tighten the guide plate 410 to avoid interference of multiple guide plates 410 with the position switching of the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220, and after the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 complete the switching, the sliding block 330 and the sliding groove 340 make the guide plate 410 open.
[0101] Specifically, the plurality of guide plates 410 are arranged as a plurality of identical units, so that the guide plates 410 in the unit can move toward both ends of the rotating frame 310 to complete the contraction.
[0102] The sliding block 330 is set to a magnetic material, and the guide plate 410 is provided with a connecting block 412. The sliding block 330 moves the connecting block 412 of the guide plate 410 corresponding to the sliding block 330 in the unit through the magnetic drive, thereby causing the multiple guide plates 410 in the unit to shrink, ensuring that the guide plate 410 will not interfere during the switching process between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220.
[0103] When the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 are in the switching state, the sliding block 330 slides forward along the sliding groove 340 under the power of the driving mechanism 300. At this time, the sliding block 330 drives the guide plate 410 to move and retract.
[0104] During the switching process between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 , the guide plate 410 is in a contracted state, thereby preventing the guide plate 410 from interfering with the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 that are switching positions.
[0105] After the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 are switched, the sliding block 330 slides in the opposite direction along the sliding groove 340 , so that the guide plate 410 opens and returns to the working state.
[0106] Therefore, the guide plate 410 is adjusted by the sliding block 330 and the sliding groove 340, effectively preventing the interference problem between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 and the guide plate 410 during the switching process, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the device operation.
[0107] In one embodiment, Figure 5-Figure 9 As shown, a second elastic member 430 is provided between the plurality of guide plates 410 , and two ends of the second elastic member 430 are respectively connected to two adjacent guide plates 410 . The second elastic member 430 is used to ensure that the plurality of guide plates 410 are evenly distributed.
[0108] Specifically, the elastic force of the second elastic member 430 always causes the two guide plates 410 to move away from each other or have a tendency to move away from each other.
[0109] When the device is working normally, under the action of the second elastic member 430 , the guide plates 410 maintain a certain spacing distance between adjacent guide plates 410 and are evenly distributed between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 .
[0110] When the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 are switching states, in order to avoid interference between the guide plate 410 and the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220, when the sliding block 330 slides forward along the sliding groove 340 on the outer wall of the spherical tube 500, the guide plate 410 overcomes the elastic force of the second elastic member 430 and contracts. The multiple guide plates 410 are close to each other and are in a tightened state, avoiding interference with the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 that are switching positions, thereby ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the switching process.
[0111] After the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220 have been switched, the sliding block 330 slides in the opposite direction along the sliding groove 340, releasing the elastic force of the second elastic member 430. Under the action of the elastic force of the second elastic member 430 and the sliding block 330, the multiple guide plates 410 quickly return to their open state, away from each other, and are evenly redistributed between the first bubble plate 210 and the second bubble plate 220.
[0112] Therefore, by providing the second elastic member 430 , it is ensured that the guide plate 410 can be evenly distributed during normal operation.
[0113] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
