DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 6 This application is described in further detail.

[0031] The present application embodiment discloses a refrigerated centrifuge.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a thermal insulation component 5 located in the cavity is fixedly installed in the box body 4, and the thermal insulation component 5 is used to improve the thermal insulation effect of the box body 4. In the embodiment of the present application, the thermal insulation component 5 uses a polyurethane foaming agent, and the polyurethane foaming agent is filled in the cavity and forms a thermal insulation layer, which effectively improves the thermal insulation effect of the box body 4; according to existing materials, the installer can also use other materials that play a thermal insulation role, such as thermal insulation rock wool or polypropylene. A centrifugal component 2 for material separation experiments is installed in the inner tank 3. In order to avoid the driving mechanism of the centrifugal component 2, a support seat 16 for supporting the box body 4 is fixedly installed on the base 1, and the support seat 16 provides an installation space for the driving mechanism of the centrifugal component 2. A refrigeration component 7 for conveying refrigerant to the microchannel evaporator 6 is also fixedly installed on the base 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The refrigeration assembly 7 includes a compressor 71 and a condenser 72 fixedly mounted on the base 1, and the microchannel evaporator 6 includes a microchannel 61 surrounded along the outer wall of the inner tank 3, a collecting pipe 1 62 fixedly mounted at one end of the microchannel 61, and a collecting pipe 2 63 fixedly mounted at the other end of the microchannel 61.

[0034] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 Both the collecting pipe 1 62 and the collecting pipe 2 63 are connected to the capillary tube of the microchannel 61 to facilitate the flow of the refrigerant in the microchannel 61 .

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The liquid inlet end of the compressor 71 is fixedly connected with a pipe 11, one end of which is connected to the compressor 71, and the other end of which is connected to the collection pipe 1 62; the collection pipe 2 63 is fixed with a pipe 2 12, one end of which is connected to the collection pipe 2 63, and the other end of which is connected to the liquid outlet end of the condenser 72; the liquid inlet end of the condenser 72 is fixed with a pipe 3 13, one end of which is connected to the liquid inlet end of the condenser 72, and the other end of which is connected to the liquid outlet end of the compressor 71. A refrigeration cycle pipeline is formed by pipe 1 11, pipe 2 12 and pipe 3 13. A filter 14 is installed on pipe 2 12 to effectively extend the service life of the refrigerant. At the same time, a control valve 18 is installed on pipe 2 12 to control the circulation of the refrigerant. The control valve 18 in the embodiment of the present application can be a solenoid valve or a quick-opening valve, and the filter 14 is installed between the control valve 18 and the condenser 72.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5In order to improve the stability of the microchannel 61 on the inner liner 3, a plurality of positioning plates 1 8 are fixed along the length direction on one side of the collecting pipe 1 62 close to the collecting pipe 2 63, and a plurality of positioning plates 2 9 are fixed on one side of the collecting pipe 2 63 close to the collecting pipe 1 62.

A connector 15 is also provided between the microchannel 61 and the inner liner 3. The connector 15 is a heat-conducting glue. The heat-conducting glue is used to improve the stability of the microchannel 61 on the inner liner 3 and effectively reduce the influence of the centrifugal part 2 on the microchannel 61 during operation. At the same time, the heat-conducting glue has good thermal conductivity, which is convenient for the microchannel 61 to cool the inner liner 3.

[0037] The implementation principle of a refrigeration centrifuge in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: the material to be centrifuged is placed in the centrifugal part 2, and the door is closed. The refrigeration system is started, and the compressor 71 starts to operate to promote the circulation of the refrigerant. The compressed and condensed refrigerant expands and absorbs heat in the microchannel 61 structure, cooling the temperature in the inner tank 3. After the refrigerant expands and absorbs heat, it enters the compressor 71 through the pipeline 11. The compressor 71 compresses the refrigerant, and the refrigerant enters the condenser 72 through the pipeline 3 13 for condensation. The condensed refrigerant is then transmitted back to the microchannel 61 through the pipeline 2 12 to form a refrigeration cycle. The present application increases the heat exchange area and heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange device through the microchannel 61, reduces the amount of refrigerant used and improves the cooling efficiency; the microchannel 61 of the present application reduces the welding link, saves the use of materials, reduces the risk of deformation caused by welding and the manufacturing labor cost, and effectively saves the cooling cost and installation difficulty.

[0038] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
