Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of chromatography workstations, in particular to a frame-type chromatography workstation. Background Art

[0002] Chromatography is a technology that uses the differences in the physical and chemical properties of different substances. All chromatography systems are composed of two phases: one is the stationary phase and the other is the mobile phase. When the mixture to be separated passes through the stationary phase with the mobile phase, due to the differences in the physical and chemical properties of each component, the ability to interact with the two phases (adsorption, dissolution, binding, etc.) is different, the distribution (content ratio) in the two phases is different, and as the mobile phase moves forward, the components are constantly redistributed in the two phases. By collecting the effluent in parts, each single component contained in the sample can be obtained, thereby achieving the purpose of separating the components. The existing chromatography equipment is composed of multiple sets of valves and diaphragms, so a large number of pipeline connections are required, resulting in the internal pipeline arrangement of the equipment not being rigorous and occupying area. In addition, if the internal pipeline is damaged in subsequent use, the entire outer pipeline needs to be dismantled for investigation and repair, so the repair is troublesome. For this reason, we propose a frame-type chromatography workstation. Utility Model Content

[0013] 2. The frame-type chromatography workstation has a narrow layout equipment structure that extends backwards, and the equipment width is no more than 1.2m (the width of the standard specification series equipment is no more than 90cm). It is convenient for the equipment to move in and out of different workshops of the pharmaceutical factory. The horizontal layout of the frame is inspired by the "high-speed rail" carriage. The frame can be extended at the rear end to place more pumps (such as sample pumps, online dilution pumps, etc.), more functional components (such as online filters, online sensors, multi-channel valves, etc.);
