Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of rotary evaporators, and more specifically, relates to a fixing device for a rotary evaporator. Background Art
[0002] A rotary evaporator is a commonly used experimental instrument, mainly used for operations such as sample concentration, separation, and purification in the fields of chemistry, pharmaceuticals, food, and environmental protection. Its working principle is: putting the sample into a rotary bottle, and using the turntable and vacuum system of the rotary evaporator to gradually evaporate and concentrate the sample under temperature control conditions, and separating the volatile substances from the sample.
[0003] The rotary bottle in the rotary evaporator has a very important function. It can help the sample be fully exposed to the vacuum environment of the rotary evaporator for rapid volatilization and evaporation. Since the sample accumulates inside the rotary bottle above the water bath, the weight on the downward-tilted side of the rotary bottle is relatively large. During the use of the rotary bottle, further limiting treatment is required for the bottle body of the rotary bottle.
[0004] In the prior art, the position near the bottle mouth of the rotary bottle is usually limited. Due to the relatively large weight at the bottom of the rotary bottle, it may not be convenient to further support the position at the bottom of the rotary bottle during the rotation of the rotary bottle, which may cause the rotary bottle to shake, and then cause the sample to splash out or the volatilization to be incomplete.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiment
[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0031] Refer to Figures 1-3, A rotary evaporator fixing device, including a water bath 1 and an evaporator rotary flask 2 located above the water bath 1. A support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the water bath 1. There are two support plates 3, and the two support plates 3 are symmetrically distributed with the central axis of the water bath 1 as the center. The top of the support plate 3 is rotatably connected to a movable rod 4. The movable rod 4 penetrates through the top of the support plate 3. One end of the movable rod 4 is fixedly connected to a stabilizing block 5. A limiting disk 6 is fixedly connected to the side of the stabilizing block 5 away from the movable rod 4. The inner circumference of the limiting disk 6 is larger than the outer circumference of the evaporator rotary flask 2. There are two stabilizing blocks 5, and the two stabilizing blocks 5 are symmetrically distributed with the central axis of the limiting disk 6 as the center. A fixing component 8 for facilitating the limiting treatment of the evaporator rotary flask 2 is arranged inside the limiting disk 6;
[0032] The fixing component 8 includes a plurality of air bags 81 fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the limiting disk 6. The outer side walls of the plurality of air bags 81 are all fixedly connected with sliding plates 82. The longitudinal sections of the inflated air bags 81 and the sliding plates 82 are both arc-shaped. An adjusting rod 83 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 82. A roller 84 is installed at one end of the adjusting rod 83 away from the sliding plate 82. The number of the air bags 81, the sliding plates 82, the adjusting rods 83 and the rollers 84 is equal. The outer side wall of the roller 84 is in contact with the outer side wall of the evaporator rotary flask 2. A communicating pipe 85 is fixedly connected between adjacent two air bags 81. An air inlet pipe 86 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the communicating pipe 85. The air inlet pipe 86 fixedly penetrates through the outer side wall of the limiting disk 6. An exhaust pipe 87 is fixedly connected to one of the air bags 81, and the exhaust pipe 87 fixedly penetrates through the outer side wall of the limiting disk 6; Gas is transmitted to the inside of the air bag 81 through the air inlet pipe 86 and the communicating pipe 85. The air bag 81 slowly expands accordingly, so that the volume of the air bag 81 increases. The sliding plate 82 drives the adjusting rod 83 to move towards the direction close to the evaporator rotary flask 2, so that the roller 84 moves to be in contact with the evaporator rotary flask 2. The gas inside the air bag 81 leaks out through the exhaust pipe 87, thereby limiting and supporting the evaporator rotary flask 2, and preventing the evaporator rotary flask 2 from shaking due to too fast or uneven rotation speed.
[0033] Refer to Figures 3-4 , The plurality of air bags 81 are distributed in a circumferential array inside the limiting disk 6, which is convenient for limiting and supporting the evaporator rotary flask 2 at multiple angles on the surface.
[0034] Refer to Figure 4 , A sealing cover 88 is threadedly connected to the top of the exhaust pipe 87. A rubber plug is arranged inside the sealing cover 88, and anti-slip patterns are arranged on the outer side wall of the sealing cover 88. The sealing cover 88 seals the top of the exhaust pipe 87 through the rubber plug.
[0035] Refer to Figure 2, a partition plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the limit disc 6. There are multiple partition plates 7. Each airbag 81 is located between every two partition plates 7. The outer side wall of the sliding plate 82 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the partition plate 7. The communication pipe 85 is fixedly penetrated through the inside of the partition plate 7. The partition plate 7 limits the slowly expanding airbag 81 and at the same time increases the stability of the movement adjustment of the sliding plate 82.
[0036] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , an air pump 9 is installed on the outer side wall of the water bath 1. The air pump 9 is located on the left side of the bottom of the water bath 1. The air outlet of the air pump 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the air inlet pipe 86 away from the communication pipe 85. A one-way valve is arranged inside the air inlet pipe 86. After the air pump 9 operates, the gas is transmitted to the inside of the airbag 81 through the air inlet pipe 86 and the communication pipe 85. The one-way valve prevents the gas inside the air inlet pipe 86 from flowing back.
[0037] Refer to Figure 2 , a round hole 10 is opened on the inner side wall of the limit disc 6. There are multiple round holes 10. The multiple round holes 10 are arranged in a circumferential array on the inner side wall of the limit disc 6. The limit disc 6 is slidably connected to the adjusting rod 83 through the round hole 10. The round hole 10 increases the stability of the movement adjustment of the adjusting rod 83.
[0038] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , a second chute 12 is opened on the movable rod 4. The movable rod 4 is slidably connected to a slider 13 through the second chute 12. The slider 13 is located at one end of the movable rod 4 away from the stabilizing block 5. The second chute 12 facilitates the movement adjustment of the slider 13; a first chute 11 is opened on the support plate 3. The slider 13 is attached to the support plate 3 through the first chute 11. The slider 13 is attached to the support plate 3 through the first chute 11 to limit the position of the movable rod 4 after rotation, so that the evaporator rotating bottle 2 is at a suitable inclination angle.
[0039] Working principle: First, the evaporation flask 2 rotates through the inside of the limit disc 6. The air pump 9 operates, and the gas is transmitted to the inside of the airbag 81 through the intake pipe 86 and the connecting pipe 85. The airbag 81 then expands, and its volume slowly increases. Each airbag 81 is located between every two partition plates 7. The sliding plate 82 slides accordingly, and the adjusting rod 83 moves towards the evaporation flask 2 through the action of the round hole 10, causing the roller 84 to move into contact with the evaporation flask 2, thereby limiting and supporting the evaporation flask 2. During the rotation of the evaporation flask 2, through the action of the adjusting rod 83, the rotation is further stabilized. When it is necessary to remove the evaporation flask 2, the sealing cap 88 rotates and moves away from the exhaust pipe 87, and the gas inside the airbag 81 is discharged through the connecting pipe 85 and the airbag 81, causing the volume of the airbag 81 to decrease accordingly. The sliding plate 82 moves towards the airbag 81, and then the adjusting rod 83 drives the roller 84 to move away from the evaporation flask 2. Subsequently, the evaporation flask 2 can be removed from the inside of the limit disc 6. When adjusting the slope of the evaporation flask 2, the limit disc 6 is rotated and adjusted through the cooperation of the stabilizing block 5 and the movable rod 4. The support plate 3 moves through the first sliding groove 11 and the second sliding groove 12 to fit with the support plate 3, and the position of the movable rod 4 after adjustment is limited.
[0040] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
