Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0032] Sample bottle 1;

[0033] Filter membrane support 4, the filter membrane support 4 is located inside the sample bottle 1;

[0034] Sample bottle cap 2, the sample bottle cap 2 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the sample bottle 1;

[0035] Gasket 3, the gasket 3 is located at the closer end of the filter membrane support 4 and the sample bottle cap 2;

[0036] O-ring 8, the O-ring 8 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the filter membrane support 4;

[0037] PTFE filter membrane 7, the PTFE filter membrane 7 is located below the filter membrane support 4;

[0038] Long air replenishing needle 5 and short sampling needle 6, the long air replenishing needle 5 and the short sampling needle 6 are located above the sample bottle 1 and penetrate through the sample bottle cap 2.

[0039] In a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the sample bottle 1 is transparent, ensuring sample visualization while preventing the sample from being contaminated by the outside world. It is used to carry the sample. The sample bottle cap 2 is tightly sleeved on the opening surface of the sample bottle 1, providing the first physical barrier to prevent external impurities from entering. The filter membrane support 4 is located on the inner wall of the sample bottle 1, used to support the PTFE filter membrane 7, and at the same time ensure the stability during sample filtration. The gasket 3 enhances the sealing effect, reduces the leakage risk during gas exchange, and can also ensure that there is no gap between parts, preventing shaking. The O-ring 8 strengthens the sealing performance, ensuring the isolation of the internal and external environments of the sample bottle. The PTFE filter membrane 7 has high filtration efficiency and low adsorption characteristics, suitable for filtering various sample types. The long air supplement needle 5 and the short sampling needle 6 are used to extract the sample without damaging the sealed state, avoiding air pollution of the sample. When sampling, the short sampling needle 6 is located above the PTFE filter membrane 7, and the long air supplement needle 5 passes through the PTFE filter membrane 7, effectively solving the problems of the electronic nose inhaling suspended particles and aerosols, and being more centered in this way, without affecting the test use of the electronics.

[0040] Specifically, please refer to Figures 1-3 , the inner diameter of the mouth of the sample bottle 1 is 33 mm, the outer diameter is 47 mm, and the height is 83 mm.

[0041] In this embodiment: The inner diameter of 33 mm of the mouth determines the matching size of the bottle cap 2 and the outer diameter selection of the O-ring 8 and the filter membrane support 4. The outer diameter of 47 mm determines the storage space of the bottle on the rack. The height of 83 mm, the vertical distance from the bottom of the bottle to the top of the bottle mouth, affects the capacity of the sample bottle 1 and the comfort of holding.

[0042] Specifically, please refer to the figure. The material of the gasket 3 is PTFE, and the gasket 3 matches the opening of the sample bottle 1.

[0043] In this embodiment: The gasket 3 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, having excellent chemical inertness, heat resistance, and low friction coefficient. The gasket 3 matches the opening of the sample bottle 1, and the diameter is such that it can completely cover the bottle mouth, and at the same time ensure that when the bottle cap 2 is tightened, the gasket can receive sufficient pressure to form a seal.

[0044] Specifically, please refer to the figure. The filter membrane support 4 is of a conical design.

[0045] In this embodiment: The conical design of the filter membrane support 4 helps to guide the liquid to be evenly distributed along the filter membrane, reducing the local overload of the sample on the filter membrane, thereby improving the filtration efficiency and consistency, and at the same time facilitating the sleeving of the PTFE filter membrane 7, and then facilitating the sleeving of the O-ring 8.

[0046] Specifically, please refer to the figure. The circumferential surface of the filter membrane support 4 is provided with grooves, and the grooves match the O-ring 8.

[0047] In this embodiment: When the O-ring 8 is embedded in the groove of the filter membrane support 4, it protects the filter membrane and the support from mechanical stress, extends their service life, and can also prevent movement, playing a stabilizing role.

[0048] Specifically, please refer to the figure. The material of the sample bottle 1 is polypropylene.

[0049] In this embodiment: Polypropylene has excellent chemical resistance and can withstand the erosion of a variety of chemicals, including strong acids, strong bases, and many organic solvents, reducing the risk of contamination caused by the reaction between the container material and the sample. Polypropylene has good heat resistance and can withstand relatively high temperatures. At the same time, it also maintains good toughness and strength at low temperatures.

[0050] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: Place the PTFE filter membrane 7 on the lower side of the filter membrane support 4, ensure that the filter membrane is flat and without wrinkles, place the filter membrane support 4 into the sample bottle 1, ensure that the O-ring 8 is correctly installed in the groove on the circumferential surface of the filter membrane support 4 to provide additional sealing, place the gasket 3 above the filter membrane support 4 to ensure that it fits perfectly with the opening of the sample bottle 1 to increase the sealing performance, put the sample bottle cap 2 on the circumferential surface of the sample bottle 1, ensure that the gasket 3 is located between the filter membrane support 4 and the sample bottle cap 2, tighten the sample bottle cap 2 until the appropriate pressure is reached to ensure that all components are in close contact to form a leak-free seal, carefully inject the sample to be filtered into the sample bottle 1 through the short sampling needle 6, ensure that the sample is evenly distributed on the PTFE filter membrane 7. If necessary, gas can be introduced or discharged through the long air supplement needle 5 to adjust the air pressure in the bottle or replace the gas environment, such as performing sample treatment under inert gas protection. After filtration, keep the sample bottle cap 2 tightly closed to ensure the sealed state of the sample during storage and transportation, prevent the sample from being contaminated or leaked, and effectively solve the problem of the electronic nose inhaling suspended particles and aerosols. In this way, it is more centered and does not affect the test use of the electronic device.

[0051] Finally, it should be noted that: The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model 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.
