DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] 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.
[0021] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a combined chromatographic column, comprising: a first column tube 1 and a second column tube 3 are connected in sequence along the axial direction, an extended column tube 2 for extending the length is provided between the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3, and connecting mechanisms are installed at one end of the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3 close to the extended column tube 2, and the two connecting mechanisms are respectively used to detachably install the extended column tube 2 on the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3.
[0022] As described above, when using the first column tube 1, the second column tube 3, the extended column tube 2 and the two connecting mechanisms provided by the utility model, the extended column tube 2 can be detachably installed between the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3 through the two connecting mechanisms, thereby realizing the combined installation of the equipment. At the same time, there are multiple extended column tubes 2, and the lengths of the multiple extended column tubes 2 are different.
[0023] In the present utility model, combined with Figure 2 As shown, the connection mechanism of this embodiment includes a joint 8 and a plurality of connecting rods 7, one ends of the plurality of connecting rods 7 are distributed in a ring array on one side of the joint 8, two joints 8 are respectively installed on the opposite sides of the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3, the two ends of the extended column tube 2 are respectively inserted into the two joints 8, both ends of the extended column tube 2 are installed with mounting rings 4, and one ends of the plurality of connecting rods 7 can be detachably installed on the corresponding mounting rings 4.
[0024] Combination Figure 3-4 As shown, a plurality of slots 13 are provided in a circular array at the edge of the mounting ring 4, one end of each of the plurality of connecting rods 7 is engaged in the corresponding slots 13, and an adjusting member 5 rotatably connected to the connecting rod 7 is provided on the side of the mounting ring 4 facing away from the joint 8, and is used to press the mounting ring 4 toward one side of the joint 8 when the adjusting member 5 is rotated.
[0025] As described above, when using the connection mechanism provided by the utility model, the joint 8 in the connection mechanism provides a plug-in position for the extended column tube 2 on the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3. After the extended column tube 2 is plugged into the joint 8, the connecting rod 7 is flipped toward one side of the mounting ring 4 so that the connecting rod 7 is in the slot 13. At the same time, the adjusting member 5 is on the side of the mounting ring 4 away from the joint 8. The adjusting member 5 is rotated to drive the mounting ring 4 to press toward one side of the joint 8, thereby facilitating the stable plugging of the extended column tube 2 into the joint 8.
[0026] Further, in order to allow the adjusting member 5 to detachably mount the connecting rod 7 on the mounting ring 4, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the adjusting member 5 includes an elliptical pressing block 15 and a lever 10 installed on one side of the elliptical pressing block 15. A rotating shaft 14 is installed at the vertex of the elliptical pressing block 15. One end of the connecting rod 7 is rotatably installed on the rotating shaft 14. The elliptical pressing block 15 includes a long end and a short end, and both the long end and the short end can abut against the mounting ring 4. After one end of the extended column tube 2 is inserted into the joint 8, the connecting rod 7 is moved closer to one side of the mounting ring 4 so that the connecting rod 7 is in the slot 13. At this time, the short end of the elliptical pressing block 15 abuts against the side of the mounting ring 4 away from the joint 8. The lever 10 can drive the elliptical pressing block 15 to rotate on the rotating shaft 14, so that the long end of the elliptical pressing block 15 abuts against the mounting ring 4. In this process, the mounting ring 4 is moved closer to the joint 8, so that the extended column tube 2 is forced to be inserted into the joint 8 to avoid leakage at the position of the joint 8.
[0027] Further, in order to adjust the degree of clamping between the extended column tube 2 and the first column tube 1 or the second column tube 3, refer to Figure 2 As shown, a screw rod 6 for length adjustment is also installed between the connecting rod 7 and the rotating shaft 14, one end of the screw rod 6 is rotatably installed on the rotating shaft 14, and a threaded hole 12 for accommodating the screw rod 6 is opened on the connecting rod 7. By allowing the screw rod 6 to rotate in the threaded hole 12, the overall length of the connecting rod 7 and the screw rod 6 can be adjusted. After the adjusting member 5 rotates and adjusts the screw rod 6, the mounting ring 4 can be driven to approach the joint 8, thereby adjusting the pressing force between the extended column tube 2 and the first column tube 1 or the second column tube 3 to prevent the extended column tube 2 and the first column tube 1 or the second column tube 3 from loosening.
[0028] Further, in order to avoid leakage between the extended column tube 2 and the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3, refer to Figure 2 As shown, flanges 11 are installed at both ends of the extended column tube 2, and the two flanges 11 are respectively inserted into the corresponding joints 8, and a sealing gasket 9 is installed between the joint 8 and the flanges 11. The sealing gasket 9 is placed in the joint 8, and the flange 11 at one end of the extended column tube 2 is inserted into the joint 8. When the extended column tube 2 is locked and installed on the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3 through the connecting mechanism, the sealing gasket 9 is pressed and filled between the extended column tube 2 and the first column tube 1 and the second column tube 3, thereby sealing the gap therebetween.
[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
