[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , the first aspect of the application proposes a mass spectrometer, the mass spectrometer comprises an ion source, an ion processing device 100, a transmission device and a detection device, the ion processing device 100 is arranged at the output end of the ion source, the transmission device is arranged at the output end of the ion transmission device, the transmission device is formed with at least one transmission channel, the transmission channel is used for transmitting the charged ions processed by the ion processing device 100, the sample to be detected is decomposed into charged ion groups by the ion source, some solvents and other media are easily attached to the charged ion groups, and cluster ions which affect the stability of detection are easily present in the charged ion groups, the generated charged ion groups are transported to the transmission device after removing the media in the charged ion groups by the ion processing device 100, and the charged ion groups are analyzed by the detection device after being transmitted to the detection device by the transmission device, so as to generate a mass spectrum. The setting of the ion processing device 100 improves the stability of the analysis of the charged ion groups by the detection device in the mass spectrometer.
[0048] The ion source is used to generate charged ions, wherein the ion source can be an electrospray ion source, an electron impact ion source or a chemical ion source.
[0049] The ion processing device 100 comprises a first base body 110, a second base body 130, a connecting piece 140 and a heating assembly 150, the first base body 110 is close to the ion source and is formed with an ion inlet 114, the second base body 130 is formed with an ion outlet 132, the first base body 110 and the second base body 130 are respectively connected to a power supply, so as to form an electromagnetic field between the first base body 110 and the second base body 130, the connecting piece 140 connects the first base body 110 and / or the second base body 130, and is formed with an ion transmission port 141, the ion transmission port 141 communicates with the containing space through the ion outlet 132, so as to form an ion transmission channel between the ion inlet 114 and the ion transmission port 141, the electromagnetic field can be used to provide kinetic energy for the charged ions in the containing space, so that the charged ions can be transmitted through the ion transmission channel, and the heating assembly 150 is at least partially arranged in the containing space and is used to heat the medium in the containing space, so as to evaporate the medium and facilitate the separation of the charged ions and the medium.
[0050] There are cluster ions in the charged ion clusters generated by the ion source that can affect the analysis of the detection device. Since the cluster ions move relatively slower than other charged ions in the electromagnetic field, the charged ion clusters are separated from the cluster ions under the action of the electromagnetic field during their movement in the ion transmission channel, thereby reducing the impact of the cluster ions on the analysis of the detection device.
[0051] The voltage applied to the first substrate 110 may be between 520V and 540V, and the voltage applied to the second substrate 130 may be between 190V and 210V. The applied voltages may also be set according to actual needs.
[0052] The first substrate 110 and the second substrate 130 are spaced apart to form a accommodating space. At least one of the first substrate 110 and the second substrate 130 is formed with a ventilation structure 133. Gas is input into the accommodating space through the ventilation structure 133 to generate an airflow, so as to blow the solution attached to the charged ion cluster out of the accommodating space to reduce the solution attached to the charged ion cluster.
[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, the aperture of the ion inlet 114 is larger than the aperture of the ion outlet 132. Since the detection device in the mass spectrometer needs to operate in a high vacuum environment, the aperture of the ion outlet 132 is reduced to prevent or reduce the passage of a large amount of gas, thereby improving the stability of the mass spectrometer.
[0054] In some embodiments, a ventilation channel 120 is formed between the ventilation structure 133 and the ion inlet 114. Through the ventilation channel 120 formed by the ventilation structure 133 and the ion inlet 114, the solution attached to the charged ion clusters is blown toward the ion inlet 114 and discharged out of the accommodating space through the ion inlet 114. The ion processing device 100 also includes a wind resistance component 115. The wind resistance component 115 is disposed within the ventilation channel 120 between the ventilation structure 133 and the ion inlet 114. The wind resistance component 115 is disposed to reduce the wind force generated within the ventilation channel 120, thereby reducing the impact of the wind force on the charged ion clusters.
[0055] Alternatively, the ventilation structure 133 comprises a first ventilation opening and a second ventilation opening, a ventilation passage 120 is formed between the first ventilation opening and the second ventilation opening, one of the first ventilation opening and the second ventilation opening is arranged on the second base body 130, and the other is arranged on the first base body 110, the ventilation passage 120 is formed through the second ventilation opening and the first ventilation opening, after the charged ion group enters the accommodation space from the ion inlet 114, the solution attached to the charged ion group is discharged to the outside of the accommodation space through one of the second ventilation opening and the first ventilation opening. The ion treatment device 100 further comprises a wind resistance component 115 arranged in the ventilation passage 120 between the ventilation structure 133 and the ventilation structure 133. The wind resistance component 115 is arranged to reduce the wind force generated in the ventilation passage 120 and reduce the influence of the wind force on the charged ion group.
[0056] In the embodiments of the present application, the following are explained on the premise that the ion inlet 114 and the ventilation structure 133 form the ventilation passage 120.
[0057] The wind resistance component 115 can be located on the side of the first base body 110 facing the second base body 130, or the wind resistance component 115 can also be located on the side of the second base body 130 facing the first base body 110, or the wind resistance component 115 can be located on the heating assembly 150, and the part of the wind resistance component 115 located in the accommodation space protrudes towards the side of the first base body 110.
[0058] The wind resistance component 115 can be arranged on different structural members according to the processing conditions, and is used to shield part of the wind force in the ventilation passage 120 to reduce the influence of the wind force on the charged ions. In the embodiments of the present application, the wind resistance component 115 is formed on the side of the first base body 110 facing the second base body 130.
[0059] The wind resistance component 115 is specifically an annular structure, and is arranged around the outer circumferential side of the ion inlet 114. After the first base body 110, the second base body 130 and the connecting member 140 are assembled, there is a gap between the wind resistance component 115 and the second base body 130, so that the wind force can pass through the ventilation passage 120.
[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation passage 120 comprises a first passage 121 and a second passage 122, the wind resistance component 115 is located between the first passage 121 and the second passage 122, the first passage 121 is in communication with the ventilation structure 133, and the second passage 122 is in communication with the ion inlet 114. The ventilation passage 120 is divided into the first passage 121 and the second passage 122 by the wind resistance component 115, so that the wind force blows the solution attached to the charged ion group in the second passage 122 and reduces the wind force after entering the first passage 121, thereby reducing the influence on the charged ion group.
[0061] The transmission direction of the charged ions in the ion transmission channel is a first direction, the extension direction of the second channel 122 is a second direction, the first direction and the second direction have an included angle, and the included angle is less than 90°. The second channel 122 extends obliquely towards the direction away from the second base body 130, so that the wind is more easily blown towards the ion inlet 114 in the second channel 122, so that the solution attached to the charged ion group is easily discharged from the ion inlet 114.
[0062] The first base body 110 includes a first side wall 111, and the second base body 130 includes a second side wall 131. The first side wall 111 near the ion inlet 114 and the second side wall 131 near the ion outlet 132 jointly form the second channel 122. The distance between the first side wall 111 and the second side wall 131 forming the second channel 122 gradually decreases towards the direction close to the ion inlet 114, so that the wind is more easily flowed to the ion inlet 114.
[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, the connecting piece 140 is provided with a first adapter 142 and a second adapter 144, and the second base body 130 is provided with a third adapter 134. The first adapter 142 is protruded on the connecting piece 140 towards one side of the first base body 110, and the connecting piece 140 is detachably connected with the first base body 110 through the first adapter 142. The first adapter 142 is in a ring structure, and the first base body 110 includes a connecting wall 112 for adapting with the first adapter 142. The first adapter 142 is provided with a clamping piece 143 in a spherical structure, and at least part of the clamping piece 143 is exposed outside the first adapter 142. The connecting wall 112 is in a ring structure, and the inner side of the connecting wall 112 is provided with a clamping groove 113 corresponding to the clamping piece 143. The first base body 110 and the connecting piece 140 are adapted and assembled through the clamping piece 143 and the clamping groove 113.
[0064] The second adapter 144 is protruded on the connecting piece 140 towards one side of the second base body 130, and the second adapter 144 is located inside the first adapter 142 with a gap between the first adapter 142 and the second adapter 144. The third adapter 134 is protruded on the second base body 130 towards one side of the connecting piece 140, and the third adapter 134 is adapted to be assembled in the gap, so that the connecting piece 140 and the second base body 130 are structurally clamped in the first direction. The first adapter 142, the second adapter 144 and the third adapter 134 are provided to facilitate the mutual assembly of the first base body 110, the second base body 130 and the connecting piece 140. The second base body 130 and the connecting piece 140 are also fixedly assembled through bolts.
[0065] The fourth adapter 135 is formed on the second base 130 and faces the first base 110, and is in the form of a ring-shaped platform and located in the first channel 121. The fourth adapter 135 can block part of the wind in the first channel 121, reducing the influence of the wind on the charged ion groups.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The connecting piece 140 is further provided with a positioning column 148 on the side away from the second base 130. The positioning column 148 is used to form a positioning connection with the device body of the mass spectrometer when the ion processing device 100 is assembled in the mass spectrometer.
[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, the ventilation structure 133 is formed on the second base 130 and located on the outer circumferential side of the third adapter 134. The connecting piece 140 is provided with a gas hole 145 penetrating the connecting piece 140 in the first direction. The ventilation structure 133, the first channel 121, the second channel 122, and the ion inlet 114 are sequentially connected and combined to form a ventilation channel 120. The gas hole 145 is connected to the ventilation channel 120 for connecting the ventilation channel 120 and the gas supply device. The gas hole 145 is further provided with a sealing ring 146 on the side away from the second base 130. The gas hole 145 is used to connect with the gas supply device. The gas supply device is used to inject gas into the gas hole 145 to generate a gas flow. The gas flow blows the solution attached to the charged ion groups out of the ion processing device 100 along the sequence of the first channel 121, the second channel 122, and the ion inlet 114, so as to separate the charged ion groups from the solution or other medium attached thereto.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present application, the heating assembly 150 is arranged on the second base 130 and close to the first base 110. The heating assembly 150 has at least two heating surfaces exposed in the second channel 122. The heating surfaces are used to provide heat for the second channel 122. The heating assembly 150 specifically includes a heating ring 151, a heating wire 152, and a fixing piece 154. The heating ring 151 is in the form of a ring. Most of the structure of the heating ring 151 is located in the first channel 121. The heating ring 151 provides heat for the accommodation space to evaporate the solution attached to the charged ion groups, so as to facilitate the wind to blow away the solution or other medium. The heating ring 151 can also block the wind in the first channel 121.
[0069] The fixing member 154 is a ring structure and is sleeved on the second base 130. The fixing member 154 is located on the side of the heating ring 151 away from the second base 130 and is used to fix the heating ring 151. The fixing member 154 is located at the communication between the first channel 121 and the second channel 122 and reduces the size of the channel at this position, thereby reducing the wind force in the first channel 121 and reducing the influence on the charged ion groups.
[0070] The connecting member 140 is provided with a plurality of grooves 147 on the side close to the second base 130. The heating wire 152 is arranged in the grooves 147. One end of the heating wire 152 is exposed on the side of the connecting member 140 away from the second base 130 and forms a heating joint 153, which is used to connect a power source or other energy source to transfer heat. The other end of the heating wire 152 is connected to the heating ring 151 and the first base 110, so that the heating ring 151 and the first base 110 have the function of generating heat. Since the heating wire 152 is arranged inside the ion processing device 100, the heating wire 152 is not prone to damage. Since the first base 110, the second base 130 and the connecting member 140 are detachably connected, the maintenance or replacement of the heating wire 152 is facilitated.
[0071] The second aspect of the application further provides an ion processing device 100. It can be understood that the ion processing device 100 is the same as the ion processing device 100 in the mass spectrometer of the first aspect of the application, and will not be repeated here.
