[0030] The bevel gear set is driven to rotate by the hand-cranked wheel, thereby adjusting the position of the rotating shaft 6, thereby changing the angle and direction of the chromatography column 1. This device can quickly adjust the angle of the chromatography column 1 as needed.
[0031] By driving the bevel gear set and the rotating shaft 6 to rotate through the self-locking hand wheel 8, the angle of the chromatography column 1 can be quickly adjusted. The angle of the chromatography column 1 can be adjusted by simply rotating the hand wheel without complicated operating steps. In addition, the self-locking hand wheel 8 can be replaced with a motor to control the rotation angle, and the position of the chromatography column 1 can be accurately adjusted as needed.
[0032] The chromatography column 1 includes a barrel 9, a barrel cover 10 and a base 11, a filter 12 is provided between the barrel 9 and the base 11, the clamp 3 on the barrel cover 10 is locked and fixed with the clamp 3 at the top of the barrel 9 by bolts A13, and the clamp 3 on the base 11 is locked and fixed with the clamp 3 at the bottom of the barrel 9 by bolts B14.
[0033] By providing a filter 12 between the barrel 9 and the base 11 of the chromatography column 1, leakage or contamination of the sample solution can be prevented during the chromatography process, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the chromatography extraction. The design of the clamp 3 makes the assembly and disassembly of the chromatography column 1 simple and quick. The clamp 3 is locked and fixed by bolts A13 and B14, so that the chromatography column 1 can be quickly installed or disassembled.
[0034] The clamp 3 includes two semicircular rings 301 fixed together by screws and encircling the outside of the chromatography column 1, a sleeve rod 302 located outside the two semicircular rings 301 and sleeved on the outer side of the vertical pole 2, and a mounting block 303 with holes arranged outside the semicircular rings 301 and threadedly connected to the bolt A13 or the bolt B14. The sleeve rod 302 is fixed to the vertical pole 2 by locking screws.
[0035] The rotating shaft 6 is fixedly connected with a sleeve column 15 sleeved on the outer side of the vertical pole 2. The sleeve column 15 is fixed on the vertical pole 2 by a locking screw.

The sleeve rod 302 is locked and fixed to the vertical pole 2 by means of locking screws, which makes the connection and fixation between the clamp 3 and the vertical pole 2 simple and convenient. By using locking screws to fix the sleeve rod 302 and the sleeve column 15, a firm connection between the components can be ensured, thereby improving the durability and durability of the entire device.
[0037] The bottom support 11 is connected to a drain pipe 16, and a drain valve 17 is provided on the drain pipe 16 to facilitate the removal of the liquid remaining in the chromatography column 1 after the chromatography process is completed. This helps to reduce sample waste and improve the efficiency of chromatography extraction. The drain valve 17 can control the speed and flow of the drainage to avoid damage to the structure of the chromatography column 1 due to excessively fast drainage;
[0038] The drain pipe 16 on the base 11 is arranged at an angle to the center line of the chromatography column 1 to facilitate the discharge of residual liquid. When the residual liquid in the chromatography column 1 needs to be discharged, the inclined drain pipe 16 can use gravity to make the residual liquid flow out naturally along the pipeline, avoiding the problem that the residual liquid cannot be completely discharged due to the horizontal arrangement, which is conducive to reducing sample waste and improving chromatography efficiency.
[0039] The filter element 12 includes an outer sleeve 1201 and a sand core 1202 disposed inside the outer sleeve 1201 . The upper and lower ends of the outer sleeve 1201 are respectively provided with annular concave grooves 1203 for fitting the cylinder body 9 and the bottom bracket 11 for insertion and positioning.
[0040] The combination of the outer sleeve 1201 and the sand core 1202 provides an effective filtering mechanism. The sand core 1202 can increase the filtering area and improve the filtering efficiency. The design of the annular concave groove 1203 of the outer sleeve 1201 helps to better position the cylinder 9 and the bottom support 11, ensuring the stability of the chromatography column 1. The sand core 1202 is made of porous ceramic material to improve the filtering efficiency. The porous ceramic material has the advantages of high strength, corrosion resistance, and high filtering accuracy. The sand core 1202 made of this material has a large filtering area and high filtering efficiency. It can better filter out impurity particles in the sample solution and ensure the purity of the extract (glabridin is extracted from the roots or stems of Glycyrrhiza glabra, with a low content. Only about 90 grams of glabridin can be extracted from 1 ton of Glycyrrhiza glabra plants).
[0041] The bevel gear set is driven by the self-locking hand-cranked wheel 8 to adjust the position of the rotating shaft 6 and change the angle and direction of the chromatography column 1 to meet the separation requirements of different substances. The design of the clamp 3 makes the assembly and disassembly of the chromatography column 1 simple and quick. The clamp 3 is locked and fixed by bolts A13 and B14. An outer sleeve 1201 and a sand core 1202 are arranged between the barrel 9 and the base 11 of the chromatography column 1 to form a filter element 12 to prevent leakage or contamination of the sample solution and protect the internal structure of the chromatography column 1. The drain pipe 16 and the drain valve 17 on the base 11 are convenient for draining residual liquid in the chromatography column 1 to reduce sample waste, and the drain valve 17 is used to control the drainage speed and flow rate.
[0042] When used specifically:
[0043] 1. Assembling the chromatography column
[0044] Prepare the various components of the chromatography column, including the barrel 9, barrel cover 10, bottom bracket 11, filter element 12 (outer sleeve 1201 and sand core 1202), hoop 3, etc. Install the sand core 1202 into the outer sleeve 1201 to assemble the filter element 12. Put the filter element 12 into the barrel 9, and the annular concave groove 1203 of the outer sleeve 1201 is connected with the inner wall of the barrel 9 and the bottom bracket 11. Install the bottom bracket 11 under the barrel 9, and the two are connected through the filter element 12. Use bolts A13 and bolts B14 to lock and fix the hoop 3 at the top of the barrel 9 and the bottom of the bottom bracket 11 respectively. Finally, cover the barrel cover 10, and the chromatography column 1 is assembled.
[0045] 2. Install the chromatography column to the bracket
[0046] Insert the lower ends of the two vertical poles 2 into the bearing seat 5 at the top of the bracket 4 respectively, sleeve the sleeve column 15 on the outer side of the vertical pole 2, and fix it with locking screws, connect the clamp 3 of the chromatography column 1 with the middle position of the two vertical poles 2 respectively, and fix it to the vertical pole 2 with locking screws on the outer side of the sleeve rod 302 of the clamp 3.
[0047] 3. Connect the drive mechanism
[0048] The bevel gear set in the installation box 7 is connected to the input end of one of the rotating shafts 6 by transmission, and a self-locking hand wheel 8 is installed on the outside of the installation box 7 so that it can drive the bevel gear set to rotate. The self-locking hand wheel 8 is rotated (or the motor is started). The hand wheel drives the bevel gear set to rotate, and then drives the rotating shaft 6 connected thereto to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 6 enables the chromatography column 1 to adjust the angle and direction through the vertical pole 2 and the clamp 3; when in use, the chromatography column 1 is placed vertically to the horizontal plane.
[0049] 4. Chromatographic extraction and finalization
[0050] The sample solution to be separated is injected into the chromatography column 1 to start the chromatography process. The solution is filtered through the filter element 12 to remove impurities and then separated and extracted. After the chromatography is completed, the drain valve 17 on the bottom support 11 is opened, and the residual liquid in the chromatography column 1 is naturally discharged using the drain pipe 16 inclined on the bottom support 11.
[0051] 4. Chromatographic extraction and finalization
[0052] Rotate the self-locking hand wheel 8 (or start the motor) to adjust the chromatography column 1 to a horizontal state, remove the clamp 3 and the bottom support 11 on the chromatography column 1, and clean the components on the chromatography column 1; since it can be flipped to a horizontal position, it is very convenient to clean the silica gel or resin remaining on the upper part of the cylinder, and at the same time clean the residual substances in the sample solution to prevent them from being deposited on the inner wall of the cylinder and affecting the next elution; after cleaning, fill the filler required for chromatography and prepare for the next use.
