DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] 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.

[0020] See also Figure 1-3 A detachable liquid chromatography column comprises a column tube 1 and a column cap 2, wherein the number of the column caps 2 is two and they are respectively threadedly connected to the two ends of the column tube 1, the column cap 2 is provided with an inlet and outlet liquid channel 16 which is interconnected with the column tube 1, the outer surface of the connecting end of the column cap 2 is provided with a connecting thread, an integrally formed boss 3 is installed on the inner wall of the column tube 1, a filter plate body 4 is provided on the top of the boss 3, a filler is provided inside the column tube 1, an annular pressing sleeve 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the column cap 2, and a plurality of filter holes 17 are provided on the inner side of the filter plate body 4 corresponding to the annular pressing sleeve 5.

[0021] A square groove 6 is symmetrically provided on the top of the filter plate body 4, and support grooves 7 connected to each other are symmetrically provided on both sides of the inner wall of the square groove 6 of the filter plate body 4. A rotating groove 8 is provided at the position corresponding to the square groove 6 on the top of the column cap 2, and a rotating rod 9 is provided inside the rotating groove 8. The bottom end of the rotating rod 9 passes through the rotating groove 8, the column cap 2 and the square groove 6 in sequence and extends to the inside of the square groove 6 and is fixedly connected with a circular block 10. A connecting clamp 11 is symmetrically installed on the outer side of the circular block 10. The height of the connecting clamp 11 is adapted to the height of the upper and lower sides of the inner wall of the support groove 7, so that clamping can be achieved.

[0022] Specifically, a support sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the position of the column cap 2 on the surface of the column tube 1, and four threaded sleeves 13 are installed around the outside of the support sleeve 12 at equal distances. A locking screw 14 is connected to the inner thread of the threaded sleeve 13. One end of the locking screw 14 passes through the support sleeve 12 and extends to the inside of the column cap 2 to be plugged in. When the column tube 1 and the column cap 2 form a threaded connection, the support sleeve 12 can be used to support the column cap 2, improve the axial compressive strength, and is not easy to deform. At the same time, it also has a certain sealing performance. After the locking screw 14 is rotated, its end can be plugged into the inside of the column cap 2 through the threaded connection with the threaded sleeve 13 to form a horizontal plug-in fixation, thereby improving the installation strength and preventing it from loosening due to the action of the thread.

[0023] Specifically, the outer side of the filter plate body 4 is in contact with the inner wall of the column tube 1, which can effectively prevent the internal filler from leaking from the joint. The bottom of the annular pressing sleeve 5 is in contact with the top of the filter plate body 4. The annular pressing sleeve 5 can not only cooperate with the boss 3 to achieve the compression and fixation of the filter plate body 4, but also can block the liquid after it enters, ensuring penetration from the filter hole 17.

[0024] Specifically, an anti-slip ring 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 9 and located inside the column cap 2. The anti-slip ring 15 is specifically a rubber ring. The anti-slip ring 15 is made of a high-friction rubber material, which can prevent the rotating rod 9 from rotating freely, causing the connecting card 11 to be disengaged from the support groove 7, thereby preventing the filter plate body 4 from loosening and falling off.

[0025] The detachable liquid chromatography column has a reasonable structural design and is easy to use. It can realize rapid disassembly and assembly of various components without the need for tools during operation, thereby improving the convenience of users at work. It also has good overall structural strength, high installation sealing, is not easily deformed by extrusion, and internal fillers are not prone to leakage. It has a long service life and can fully meet usage requirements.

[0026] Working principle: when the column cap 2 needs to be removed, the locking screw 14 can be rotated under the threaded connection of the screw sleeve 13 to disengage it from the plug, and the column cap 2 can be rotated and then removed from the column tube 1. When the column cap 2 is removed, the filter plate body 4 will be taken out together, which is more convenient. When the filter plate body 4 needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to rotate the rotating rod 9 to drive the circular block 10 and the connecting card plate 11 to rotate together, so that the connecting card plate 11 is disengaged from the plug-in connection with the support groove 7, and then it can be taken out from the square groove 6. Similarly, when installing, it is only necessary to reverse the above steps.

[0027] 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.
