DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the utility model provides a purification device for nucleic acid extraction, including a box body 1, a liquid inlet pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the other end of the top of the box body 1, a liquid discharge pipe 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom of the box body 1, a filter 8 is fixedly connected to the pipe mouth of the liquid discharge pipe 7, a sampling tube 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the box body 1, and a control valve 11 is fixedly connected to the sampling tube 10.

[0023] The top of the box body 1 is rotatably connected to a hollow shaft 2 that passes through the top wall of the box body 1, and a refrigeration mechanism 5 is arranged at the bottom end of the hollow shaft 2. The refrigeration mechanism 5 includes a shunt pipe 51, and the shunt pipe 51 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hollow shaft 2. Both ends of the bottom of the shunt pipe 51 are fixedly connected to injection pipes 52 that communicate with the inside of the shunt pipe 51. An air guide pipe 1 53 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the hollow shaft 2, and the bottom end of the air guide pipe 1 53 is communicated with the inside of the shunt pipe 51. The top of the air guide pipe 1 53 is fixedly connected to a connector 54, and the top of the connector 54 is rotatably connected to an air guide pipe 2 55. The inlet end of the air guide pipe 2 55 is connected to a refrigerator 56, and the refrigerator 56 is fixedly installed on the top of the box body 1. One end of the top of the box body 1 is provided with a driving mechanism 6 for driving the hollow shaft 2 to rotate.

[0024] The air guide pipe 53 can guide the cold air inside the refrigerator 56 into the shunt pipe 51 and spray it out through the jet pipe 52. The hollow shaft 2 can be rotated by the driving mechanism 6, which makes the shunt pipe 51 rotate synchronously with the hollow shaft 2, and all the jet pipes 52 rotate synchronously in the circumferential direction. In this way, the jet pipes 52 can evenly disperse the cold air to different areas of the box 1, so that the cooling speed of different areas inside the box 1 is consistent, which greatly improves the temperature control effect.

[0025] The driving mechanism 6 includes a motor 61, which is fixedly mounted on the top of the housing 1. The output shaft of the motor 61 is fixedly connected to a driving gear 62, and the top of the hollow shaft 2 is fixedly connected to a gear ring 63, and the driving gear 62 is meshed with the gear ring 63. The motor 61 is started to rotate the driving gear 62, and since the driving gear 62 is meshed with the gear ring 63, the gear ring 63 drives the hollow shaft 2 to rotate, which makes the shunt pipe 51 rotate synchronously with the hollow shaft 2, which makes all the jet pipes 52 rotate synchronously, so that the jet pipes 52 can evenly disperse the cold air to different areas of the housing 1.

[0026] Among them, the bottom of the diversion pipe 51 is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 3, and the outer side of the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected with a plurality of stirring rods 4, and the plurality of stirring rods 4 are equidistantly distributed along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 3, and the angle between the stirring rod 4 and the rotating shaft 3 is 30 degrees. The stirring rods 4 at the same height are distributed at equal angles around the rotating shaft 3. A cleaning member 9 is provided at the bottom of the rotating shaft 3 for cleaning the top wall of the filter screen 8 by cooperating with the rotation of the rotating shaft 3. The cleaning member 9 includes a mounting plate 91, one end of the mounting plate 91 is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 3, and the other end of the mounting plate 91 is slidably connected with a sliding rod 92 that penetrates the mounting plate 91, and a brush plate 93 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding rod 92, and the brush plate 93 can cooperate with the rotation of the rotating shaft 3 to intermittently conflict with the top wall of the filter screen 8, and a stopper 94 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding rod 92, and a spring 95 is sleeved on the sliding rod 92, and the top end of the spring 95 conflicts with the mounting plate 91, and the bottom end of the spring 95 conflicts with the brush plate 93.

[0027] By starting the motor 61, the driving gear 62 rotates. Since the driving gear 62 is meshed with the ring gear 63, the ring gear 63 will drive the hollow shaft 2 to rotate, which makes the diverter tube 51 rotate synchronously with the hollow shaft 2, and the rotating shaft 3 drives all the stirring rods 4 to rotate synchronously, thereby accelerating the precipitation rate of the protein. At the same time, the mounting plate 91 will drive the brush plate 93 to rotate circumferentially. When the brush plate 93 contacts the top wall of the filter screen 8, the brush plate 93 can clean the protein on the top wall of the filter screen 8, effectively avoiding the problem of the filter holes of the filter screen 8 being blocked.
