Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus, comprising:

[0007] The base has electric lifting cylinders arranged around its top, and the tops of the four electric lifting cylinders are all provided with a mounting plate.

[0008] The mounting plate has an internal mounting cavity. A vertical mounting column is rotatably mounted on the bottom wall of the mounting cavity. The rod of the mounting column rotatably passes through the top of the mounting plate. An electrophoresis device is mounted on the top of the mounting column via a fixing frame. A worm gear is mounted on the outside of the rod of the mounting column. A drive rod is rotatably mounted on the inner side wall of the mounting cavity. A worm gear that meshes with the worm gear is mounted on the rod of the drive rod.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus described in this invention, the electric lifting cylinder includes a fixed cylinder and a movable cylinder, and a stabilizing plate is provided on the outer side of the four fixed cylinders.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus described in this invention, a battery is provided on the top of the base, a switch is provided on the front side wall of the mounting plate, four electric lifting cylinders are connected in series, and the switch is electrically connected to the battery and the four electric lifting cylinders.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus of the present invention, the base is provided with casters around its bottom perimeter, and each caster is provided with a brake pad.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus described in this invention, the bottom end of the mounting column and the side end of the drive rod are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity via a bearing sleeve.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus described in this invention, one end of the drive rod extends and rotatably penetrates the side wall of the mounting plate, and a hand crank is provided at the end of the drive rod, with an anti-slip sleeve fitted on the upper part of the hand crank.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the electrophoresis equipment, you only need to operate the hand crank with one hand to drive the drive rod to rotate. The worm gear and worm wheel will then rotate the mounting column, which will adjust the position of the electrophoresis equipment. Compared with the existing technology, which requires the use of both hands and feet for adjustment, this embodiment is more convenient.

[0017] When the height of the electrophoresis equipment needs to be adjusted, the height of the mounting plate and the electrophoresis equipment can be adjusted by controlling four electric lifting cylinders through a switch, thus making it convenient for operators of different heights and other personnel to view the equipment.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4The diagram shown is a structural schematic of an embodiment of a high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus according to the present invention. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 This paper provides a detailed introduction to a highly efficient capillary electrophoresis instrument.

[0029] A high-efficiency capillary electrophoresis apparatus includes a base 100, with electric lifting cylinders 110 arranged around the top of the base 100, and a mounting plate 120 arranged at the top of the four electric lifting cylinders 110.

[0030] The mounting plate 120 has an internal mounting cavity 200. A vertical mounting column 210 is rotatably mounted on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the mounting cavity 200. The rod of the mounting column 210 rotatably passes through the top of the mounting plate 120. An electrophoresis device 230 is mounted on the top of the mounting column 210 through a fixing bracket 220. A worm gear 240 is provided on the outside of the rod of the mounting column 210. A drive rod 250 is rotatably mounted on the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 200. A worm 260 that meshes with the worm gear 240 is provided on the rod of the drive rod 250.

[0031] Furthermore, the electric lifting cylinder 110 includes a fixed cylinder 130 and a movable cylinder 140. A stabilizing plate 150 is provided on the outer side of the four fixed cylinders 130, which improves the overall stability of the four fixed cylinders 130.

[0032] Furthermore, a storage battery 160 is provided on the top of the base 100, and a switch 170 is provided on the front side wall of the mounting plate 120. Four electric lifting cylinders 110 are connected in series, and the switch 170 is electrically connected to the storage battery 160 and the four electric lifting cylinders 110. The switch 170 allows for convenient simultaneous operation of the four electric lifting cylinders 110, thereby adjusting the height of the electrophoresis equipment 230.

[0033] Furthermore, the base 100 is equipped with casters 180 around its bottom, and each caster 180 is equipped with a brake pad. The casters 180 facilitate the movement of the device, and the brake pads are closed when the device needs to be parked for use.

[0034] Furthermore, the bottom end of the mounting post 210 and the side end of the drive rod 250 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 200 through bearing sleeves, which reduces the friction between the mounting post 210 and the drive rod 250 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 200 when they rotate.

[0035] Furthermore, one end of the drive rod 250 extends and rotatably penetrates the side wall of the mounting plate 120, and a hand crank 270 is provided at the end of the drive rod 250. An anti-slip sleeve 280 is fitted on the upper part of the hand crank 270. The hand crank 270 can easily drive the drive rod 250 to rotate, thereby adjusting the direction of the electrophoresis device 230 through the worm gear 260 and the worm wheel 240. In addition, the worm gear 260 and the worm wheel 240 also have self-locking properties, so that the position of the electrophoresis device 230 is stable after adjustment.

[0036] Furthermore, the mounting plate 120 and the fixing frame 220 are spaced apart. The bottom of the fixing frame 220 is surrounded by auxiliary support wheels 290 with the mounting column 210 as the center. The wheel surfaces of the auxiliary support wheels 290 roll on the top of the mounting plate 120. When the fixing frame 220 rotates, the multiple auxiliary support wheels 290 move accordingly, thereby improving the stability of the fixing frame 220 when it rotates.

[0037] In practical use, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the electrophoresis equipment 230, it is only necessary to operate the hand crank 270 with one hand to drive the drive rod 250 to rotate, and the mounting column 210 will rotate through the worm gear 260 and worm wheel 240, thereby adjusting the position of the electrophoresis equipment 230; when it is necessary to adjust the height of the electrophoresis equipment 230, the four electric lifting cylinders 110 can be operated by the switch 170 to adjust the height of the mounting plate 120 and the electrophoresis equipment 230.

[0038] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the disclosed embodiments can be combined with each other in any manner. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
