Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of liquid chromatography column filling tanks, and in particular to a high performance liquid chromatography column filling tank. Background Art
[0002] At present, the chromatographic column is the core component in chromatographic analysis, and its main function is to separate the mixture. In gas chromatography, the diameter of the chromatographic column is several millimeters, which is filled with solid adsorbent or liquid solvent, which is called the stationary phase. Corresponding to the stationary phase is a mobile phase, which has different affinities with each component in the sample. When the carrier gas carries the sample through the chromatographic column continuously, the components with large affinity move slowly in the chromatographic column, while the components with small affinity move quickly. By detecting the separated components through the detector, the qualitative and quantitative analysis results can be obtained. The system of the HPLC column is composed of several parts such as a liquid reservoir, a pump, an injector, a chromatographic column, a detector, and a recorder. The mobile phase in the liquid reservoir is pumped into the system by a high-pressure pump, and the sample solution enters the mobile phase through the injector and is carried into the chromatographic column (stationary phase) by the mobile phase. Since the components in the sample solution have different distribution coefficients in the two phases, when they move relative to each other in the two phases, after repeated adsorption and desorption distribution processes, the components have large differences in movement speed and are separated into single components that flow out of the column in turn. When passing through the detector, the sample concentration is converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the recorder, and the data is printed out in the form of a graph.
[0003] The existing homogenization tank for loading high performance liquid chromatography columns has a high viscosity of slurry that adheres to the inner wall of the tank and is not easy to discharge. The structure of most tanks is not easy to disassemble. After use, the inner wall of the tank is not easy to clean, which makes it inconvenient to use next time.
[0004] Through searching, the Chinese patent with the Chinese patent announcement number "CN218917294U" discloses a filling device for a homogenization tank for filling a high-performance liquid chromatography column, which includes a bracket, a tank body on the top of the bracket and a feeding pipe on the right side of the tank body, a water pipe is provided on the top of the tank body, a solenoid valve is connected to the bottom end of the bracket, a chromatographic column tube is connected to the bottom end of the solenoid valve, a cleaning mechanism is provided on the left side of the tank body, and a stirring mechanism is provided inside the tank body; the utility model injects water into the tank body again after the sample solution is filled, drives the motor to rotate the paddle again through the rotating shaft, and dissolves the residue on the inner wall of the tank body in water through the scraper, drives the plunger to move upward through the cylinder in the cleaning mechanism, extracts the air of the piston cylinder to make its inside become negative pressure, and makes the waste liquid automatically flow into the piston cylinder and then discharge outward, so as to facilitate automatic cleaning of the tank body, and solves the problem of inconvenient disassembly of the tank body structure in the prior art.
[0005] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the utility model inventor found the following defects:
[0006] Although the above-mentioned device has a certain cleaning function, during its specific application, its internal cleaning structure cannot completely cover the inside of the tank body for scraping. There are gaps during the scraping of the overall scraper, and it cannot completely cover the bottom, top and sides of the tank body. The overall cleaning efficiency is poor. In addition, during the loading and unloading process, spiral conveying is used to assist loading, and the auger structure in the spiral conveying equipment obviously lacks a cleaning structure, which is inconvenient for cleaning. At the same time, during its use, the vertical auger is difficult to transport liquid mobile phases. During loading, the liquid will flow downward, and the overall loading efficiency is low. At the same time, the liquid is also easy to overflow. Obviously, the above-mentioned equipment has certain defects, so it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

The mounting seat 2 is responsible for fixing the tank body 3 to ensure its stability during operation. The driving mechanism 4 is located in the middle of the rear side of the base plate 1. The stirring mechanism 7 can be controlled by the driving mechanism 4. The driving mechanism 4 can accurately control the lifting and lowering of the stirring mechanism 7, so that the stirring mechanism 7 can easily enter or exit the tank body 3, which is convenient for material stirring and tank body 3 cleaning. The stirring mechanism 7 is the core part of the filling tank, and its bottom extends into the interior of the tank body 3. The stirring mechanism 7 can be driven by the driving mechanism 4. In order to carry out efficient stirring operation in the tank body 3, the uniform mixing of the materials is promoted. At the same time, the design of the stirring mechanism 7 also takes into account the convenience of cleaning, and the inside of the tank body 3 can be easily cleaned to avoid the influence of residues on subsequent experiments. The feeding mechanism 6 is located in the middle of one side of the substrate 1, and its output end is connected with the upper end of the tank body 3. Through the feeding mechanism 6, the material to be processed can be easily added to the tank body 3 to achieve rapid feeding. This design reduces the tediousness of manual operation and improves work efficiency. A discharge hopper 5 and a discharge pipe 8 are provided at the bottom of the tank body 3. The discharge pipe 8 is equipped with an electromagnetic valve 9. When the material in the tank body 3 needs to be discharged, it can be controlled The discharge pipe 8 is connected to the chromatographic column tube 10 at the bottom of the solenoid valve 9, so that the stirred material can be directly transported to the chromatographic column for analysis.

This equipment has broad prospects in the application of chemistry, biology and other fields.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 3The driving mechanism 4 includes a guide rail 41, which is fixedly installed in the middle of the back side of the substrate 1. A mounting frame 42 is fixedly installed on the top of the guide rail 41, and a driving component 43 is fixedly installed on the back side of the mounting frame 42. A sliding rod 44 is slidably connected inside the guide rail 41. The top of the sliding rod 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring mechanism 7. The output end of the driving component 43 is meshed with the sliding rod 44. The guide rail 41 is fixedly installed in the middle of the back side of the substrate 1, providing a stable and accurate sliding path for the sliding rod 44. The mounting frame 42 is firmly fixed on the top of the guide rail 41 for supporting and fixing the driving component 43. The driving component 43 is installed on the back side of the mounting frame 42, and its output end is meshed with the sliding rod 44. Through the operation of the driving component 43, the sliding rod 44 can be driven, thereby controlling the lifting and lowering of the stirring mechanism 7. The sliding rod 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring mechanism 7. When the driving component 43 is in motion, the sliding rod 44 can be driven. When the component 43 is working, the slide bar 44 will slide up and down along the guide of the guide rail 41, driving the stirring mechanism 7 to perform corresponding lifting and lowering movements. This design allows the stirring mechanism 7 to easily enter the tank body 3 for stirring operations, and quickly exit after the stirring is completed, which is convenient for subsequent cleaning work. In addition, the design of the driving mechanism 4 also takes into account the convenience and stability of operation. By accurately controlling the operation of the driving component 43, the lifting and lowering speed and position of the stirring mechanism 7 can be accurately adjusted to ensure efficient stirring and cleaning processes. At the same time, the sliding connection between the guide rail 41 and the slide bar 44 uses high-quality wear-resistant materials to ensure the smoothness and durability of sliding. This driving mechanism 4 is reasonably designed and fully functional, and can efficiently and stably control the lifting and lowering movement of the stirring mechanism 7, providing strong support for the stirring and cleaning operations of the high-performance liquid chromatography column filling tank.
[0034] Please refer to Figure 3The driving assembly 43 includes a first motor 431 and a strip groove 432. The strip groove 432 is opened on the back of the slide bar 44. The first motor 431 is fixedly installed in the middle of one side of the mounting frame 42. The output end of the first motor 431 passes through the mounting frame 42 and is fixedly installed with a transmission gear 433. The interior of the strip groove 432 is fixedly installed with a rack 434. The rack 434 and the transmission gear 433 are meshed and connected. The first motor 431 is fixedly installed in the middle of one side of the mounting frame 42. It is the power of the driving assembly 43. When the motor is started, its output end will start to rotate and drive the transmission gear 433 connected thereto to rotate together. The transmission gear 433 is installed at the output end of the first motor 431. It passes through the mounting frame 42 and is meshed with the rack 434. This meshing connection ensures a close fit between the transmission gear 433 and the rack 434, so that the power of the motor can be efficiently transmitted to the rack 434. The rack 434 is fixedly installed inside the strip groove 432, and the strip groove 432 is opened. The rack 434 is arranged on the back side of the slide bar 44, and is designed so that it can mesh with the transmission gear 433, thereby converting the rotational motion of the motor into the linear motion of the slide bar 44. When the first motor 431 is started, the transmission gear 433 begins to rotate, and through the meshing action with the rack 434, the rack 434 is pushed to move up and down in the strip groove 432. Since the rack 434 and the slide bar 44 are fixedly connected, the slide bar 44 will also slide up and down accordingly. This design not only realizes the lifting and lowering control of the stirring mechanism 7, but also ensures the smoothness and accuracy of the movement. In addition, the driving component 43 also has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation, and high reliability. By adjusting the speed and direction of the motor, the lifting speed and direction of the stirring mechanism 7 can be accurately controlled to meet different experimental requirements. This driving component 43 realizes accurate control of the lifting and lowering motion of the stirring mechanism 7 through motor drive and gear rack 434 transmission, which provides a strong guarantee for the efficient operation of the high-performance liquid chromatography column filling tank.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1, support plates 12 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the substrate 1, and mounting plates 13 are fixedly installed on the outer ends of the support plates 12. The mounting plates 13 are fixedly installed on the outer ends of the support plates 12. This design allows the entire device to be easily installed and fixed on a laboratory bench or other work platform. The mounting plate 13 usually has sufficient area and strength to withstand the weight of the device itself and the vibration and impact that may occur during use. In addition, mounting holes 14 are usually provided on the mounting plate 13. These mounting holes 14 can be conveniently bolted to the laboratory bench or other fixed structures to ensure the safe fixation of the equipment. The mounting holes 14 are designed to be countersunk holes, so that the bolt heads after installation can be sunk into the holes, avoiding the impact on the appearance and use of the equipment. The design of the support plate 12 and the mounting plate 13 provides a stable and reliable installation foundation for the high-performance liquid chromatography column filling tank, ensuring the stability and safety of the equipment during operation. At the same time, this design also makes the installation and maintenance of the equipment more convenient.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 , mounting holes 14 are provided at both ends of the mounting plate 13, and the mounting holes 14 are set as countersunk holes. In order to ensure the firmness and stability of the installation, mounting holes 14 are provided at both ends of the mounting plate 13, and these mounting holes 14 are specially designed as countersunk holes. The characteristic of the countersunk hole is that its hole mouth part has a larger diameter, while the depth of the hole gradually decreases and finally matches the rod of the bolt or screw. This design allows the mounting plate 13 to be tightly connected to the laboratory bench or other fixed structure using bolts or screws during installation, and at the same time, the head of the bolt or screw can be completely sunk into the hole and will not protrude from the surface of the mounting plate 13. The benefits of using countersunk holes as mounting holes 14 are obvious. First, it avoids the head of the bolt or screw protruding from the surface of the mounting plate 13, thereby ensuring the neatness and beauty of the appearance of the equipment. Secondly, the countersunk hole design can reduce the friction and collision caused by the contact between the head of the bolt or screw and external objects, which helps to extend the service life of the equipment. Finally, this design can also reduce the shaking or loosening of the equipment caused by improper installation to a certain extent, thereby improving the stability and safety of the equipment.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 6The stirring mechanism 7 includes a fixed block 71, which is fixedly installed on the top of the sliding rod 44. A top cover 72 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the fixed block 71. A second motor 73 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the top cover 72. The output end of the second motor 73 passes through the top cover 72 and is fixedly installed with a stirring assembly 74. The stirring mechanism 7 is a key part in the high-performance liquid chromatography column filling tank. Its main function is to achieve stirring and mixing of the materials in the tank body 3 to ensure the uniformity of the materials and the adequacy of the reaction. The stirring mechanism 7 includes key components such as a fixed block 71, a top cover 72, a second motor 73 and a stirring assembly 74, which work together to complete the stirring task. The fixed block 71, as a supporting structure of the stirring mechanism 7, is firmly fixedly installed on the top of the sliding rod 44, which ensures the stability of the stirring mechanism 7 during the lifting process and avoids operational errors or equipment damage caused by shaking or vibration. The top cover 72 is located at the bottom of the fixed block 71. It not only plays a role of sealing and protection, but also serves as an installation base for the second motor 73. The design of the top cover 72 takes into account the cooperation with the tank body 3 to ensure that there will be no interference or friction with the inside of the tank body 3 during the stirring process. The second motor 73 is the power source of the entire stirring mechanism 7. It is fixedly installed in the middle position of the top of the top cover 72. When the motor is started, its output end will begin to rotate, driving the stirring component 74 connected to it to perform stirring operations. This design enables the stirring mechanism 7 to work independently, which is convenient for precise control of the stirring speed and stirring time. The stirring component 74 is the core part of the stirring mechanism 7, which is directly involved in the stirring process. The stirring component 74 is driven by the second motor 73 to rotate to fully stir the material in the tank body 3. Its design takes into account factors such as stirring effect, stirring uniformity and material characteristics to ensure the efficiency and reliability of the stirring process. This stirring mechanism 7 is reasonably designed and fully functional, can achieve uniform stirring of the material in the tank body 3, improve reaction efficiency and the accuracy of experimental results, and at the same time, it has a compact structure and is easy to operate.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 6The stirring assembly 74 includes a rotating shaft 741, which is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second motor 73. An upper scraper 742 is fixedly mounted at equal intervals on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 741. A lower scraper 743 is fixedly mounted at equal intervals on the lower end of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 741. The overall cross-sectional shape of the lower scraper 743 is an isosceles trapezoid. The outer inclined surface of the lower scraper 743 is fitted and connected to the inner wall inclined surface of the discharge hopper 5. The outer side and the top of the upper scraper 742 are respectively fitted and connected to the inner wall of the tank body 3 and the bottom of the top cover 72. The rotating shaft 741 As the power transmission component of the stirring assembly 74, it is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor 73. When the motor is started, the rotating shaft 741 rotates accordingly, driving the stirring component installed thereon to perform stirring operation. This design ensures the efficient transmission of stirring power and provides a stable and reliable power source for the stirring operation. The upper scraper 742 is fixedly installed at an equal interval on the upper outer surface of the rotating shaft 741. During the stirring process, the upper scraper 742 rotates with the rotation of the rotating shaft 741, and its outer side is closely fitted with the inner wall of the tank body 3. The top is fitted with the bottom of the top cover 72. This design enables the upper scraper 742 to effectively scrape off the material attached to the inner wall of the tank body 3, preventing the accumulation and waste of materials, and improving the uniformity of stirring. The lower scraper 743 is also fixedly installed at equal intervals on the lower part of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 741, and its overall cross-sectional shape is an isosceles trapezoid. This design enables the outer inclined surface of the lower scraper 743 to fit closely with the inner wall inclined surface of the discharge hopper 5. During the stirring process, the lower scraper 743 rotates with the rotation of the rotating shaft 741, which can not only The stirring assembly 74 is designed to effectively scrape off the material attached to the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5 and guide the material to flow toward the discharge port, thereby accelerating the discharge process of the material. The design of the stirring assembly 74 fully considers the uniformity of stirring and the fluidity of the material. Through the coordinated use of the upper scraper 742 and the lower scraper 743, the inner wall of the tank body 3 and the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5 can be fully scraped to avoid material residue and waste. At the same time, the rotational motion of the stirring assembly 74 can also promote the uniform mixing of the material in the tank body 3 and improve the stirring efficiency and reaction effect.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 6The outer surface of the rotating shaft 741 is fixedly installed with a stirring auger 744, which is arranged on the inner side of the upper scraper 742 and the lower scraper 743. The lower end of the stirring auger 744 is also set to a cone shape. The stirring auger 744 is located on the inner side of the upper scraper 742 and the lower scraper 743. The spiral shape design can effectively push and mix the materials. When the rotating shaft 741 rotates, the stirring auger 744 rotates accordingly, pushing the materials from the bottom of the tank body 3 upward, and at the same time making the materials form a rotating flow in the tank body 3, thereby achieving uniform mixing of the materials. It is worth mentioning that the lower end of the stirring auger 744 is specially designed to be conical. This design makes the stirring auger 7 When 44 contacts the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5, it can guide the material to flow to the discharge port more smoothly, reducing material residue and blockage.
