[0025] Refer to Figure 1-7 , a closed test chamber for supercritical carbon dioxide flow - carrying dry - ice particle decontamination provided by the present utility model includes a support base 1. The upper end of the support base 1 is fixedly connected with a box body 2. Inside the box body 2, a first pipeline 3 and a second pipeline 4 are fixedly connected. The lower ends of the first pipeline 3 and the second pipeline 4 are jointly connected with a three - way pipe 15. The lower end of the three - way pipe 15 is fixedly connected with a connecting hose 16. Inside the box body 2, a connecting seat 23 is connected through a position adjustment mechanism. The bottom end of the connecting seat 23 is fixedly connected with a nozzle 22. One end of the connecting hose 16 far from the three - way pipe 15 is fixedly connected with the nozzle 22 and is in mutual communication. An opening 30 is formed on the front end face of the box body 2. The bottom end inside the box body 2 is slidably connected with an experimental bench 8. The experimental bench 8 extends to the outside of the box body 2 through the opening 30. Inside the support base 1, two baffles 7 are connected through a driving mechanism. Both baffles 7 block the front of the experimental bench 8, and the driving mechanism is used to adjust the angle of the baffle 7;

[0026] The driving mechanism includes a guide rail 28, a second electric telescopic rod 27, a rack 31, a gear 26, a rotating shaft 25, a bearing seat 24 and a connecting block 32. Inside the support base 1, the guide rail 28 and the bearing seat 24 are fixedly connected. Inside the guide rail 28, the rack 31 is slidably connected. Inside the bearing seat 24, the rotating shaft 25 is rotatably connected. The baffle 7 is fixedly installed at the front end of the rotating shaft 25. The rear end of the rotating shaft 25 is fixedly connected to the gear 26. The gear 26 meshes with the rack 31. Inside the support base 1, an electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected through a fixed seat. The output end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the connecting block 32, and the connecting block 32 is fixedly connected to the rack 31. During operation, the first pipe 3 is externally connected to a supercritical carbon dioxide input pipe, and the second pipe 4 is externally connected to a dry ice particle input pipe. At this time, both the supercritical carbon dioxide and the dry ice particles can simultaneously enter the connecting hose 16 through the three-way pipe 15 and are finally ejected through the nozzle 22. The gas and dry ice particles ejected from the nozzle 22 can perform a decontamination experiment on the experimental sample. When the experiment is completed, control the second electric telescopic rod 27 to contract. With the cooperation of the connecting block 32, drive the rack 31 to move outwards, thereby driving the gear 26 to rotate. The gear 26 drives the rotating shaft 25 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 25 drives the baffle 7 to rotate until the baffle 7 is completely staggered from the experimental bench 8, which facilitates the subsequent removal of the experimental bench 8 from the box body 2, thereby facilitating the removal of the experimental sample so that the operator can observe the decontamination situation of the experimental sample.

[0027] Furthermore, an observation window 6 is provided on the front end face of the box body 2. During operation, it is convenient to observe the experimental situation inside the box body 2 through the observation window 6.

[0028] Furthermore, a sealing groove is formed on the front end face of the box body 2. Inside the sealing groove, a sealing ring 29 is fixedly connected, and the experimental bench 8 is in close fit with the sealing ring 29. During operation, with the mutual cooperation of the sealing groove and the sealing ring 29, the sealing effect between the experimental bench 8 and the box body 2 can be better. During the process of cleaning the experimental sample with supercritical carbon dioxide flow and dry ice particles, the gas is not easily leaked out along the connection between the experimental bench 8 and the box body 2.

[0029] Furthermore, a third pipe 5 is fixedly connected inside the box body 2, and the third pipe 5 communicates with the box body 2. During operation, the third pipe 5 is externally connected to a gas collection device. During the experiment, the excess supercritical carbon dioxide gas and other gases can enter the gas collection device through the third pipe 5, which is not only convenient for subsequent recycling but also avoids these gases leaking into the outside world and affecting the environment.

[0030] Further, a first electric telescopic rod 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 2. The output end of the first electric telescopic rod 9 is fixedly connected to a pressing plate 10, and the pressing plate 10 is located at the leftmost end of the experimental bench 8. During operation, when placing an experimental sample on the experimental bench 8, it is necessary to ensure that the experimental sample is in contact with the front end face and the right end face inside the experimental bench 8. Then, the experimental bench 8 is pushed into the box body 2, and then the first electric telescopic rod 9 is controlled to operate, which can drive the pressing plate 10 to move to the right to press the experimental sample, so that the experimental sample can be stably located in the experimental bench 8, facilitating subsequent stable decontamination experiments on the experimental sample.

[0031] Further, the position adjustment mechanism includes a fixing plate 11, a first motor 17, a first threaded rod 12, a guide rod 13, a moving frame 19, a second threaded rod 18, a second motor 14, a moving seat 20, and a third motor 21. The fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the box body 2. The first threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected between the fixing plate 11 and the box body 2. The guide rod 13 is fixedly connected between the fixing plate 11 and the box body 2. The right end of the fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the first motor 17. The output shaft end of the first motor 17 is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 12. The circumferential surface of the first threaded rod 12 is threadedly connected to the moving frame 19. The guide rod 13 passes through the moving frame 19, and the moving frame 19 is slidably connected to the guide rod 13. The front end of the moving frame 19 is fixedly connected to the second motor 14. The second threaded rod 18 is rotatably connected inside the moving frame 19. The output shaft end of the second motor 14 is fixedly connected to the second threaded rod 18. The circumferential surface of the second threaded rod 18 is threadedly connected to the moving seat 20. The moving seat 20 is located inside the moving frame 19 and is slidably connected to the moving frame 19. The inside of the moving seat 20 is fixedly connected to the third motor 21. The output shaft end of the third motor 21 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 23. During operation, the first motor 17 operates to drive the first threaded rod 12 to rotate. At this time, the moving frame 19 drives the second motor 14, the second threaded rod 18, the moving seat 20, the connecting seat 23, and the spray head 22 to move left and right along the guide rod 13. And the second motor 14 operates to drive the second threaded rod 18 to rotate. At this time, the moving seat 20 can drive the third motor 21, the connecting seat 23, and the spray head 22 to move back and forth along the moving frame 19. And the third motor 21 operates to drive the connecting seat 23 to rotate, thereby driving the spray head 22 to rotate. By adjusting the position of the spray head 22 in different directions, it is convenient to use the spray head 22 to perform decontamination experiments on multiple different positions of the experimental sample.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] During use, place the experimental sample on the experimental bench 8, and then place the experimental bench 8 into the box body 2. Next, control the driving mechanism to operate, driving the baffle 7 to rotate until the baffle 7 blocks the front end of the experimental bench 8. At this time, the experimental bench 8 can be stably located inside the box body 2. Then, control the first electric telescopic rod 9 to operate, driving the extrusion plate 10 to move rightward to extrude the experimental sample. At this time, with the mutual cooperation of the extrusion plate 10 and the experimental bench 8, it can be ensured that the experimental sample is stably located inside the experimental bench 8. Finally, control the position adjustment mechanism to operate, driving the nozzle 22 to move in multiple directions. At this time, the supercritical carbon dioxide and dry ice particles ejected from the nozzle 22 can perform decontamination experiments on multiple different positions of the experimental sample.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features.
