[0002] In the process of using a filter to filter out large particles of impurities in collagen peptides to achieve protein sample separation and purification, the protein solution has a higher viscosity when the concentration is high. In addition, the interaction between protein molecules and the interaction between protein and the filter material will also lead to adhesion, which makes it easy for impurities to adhere to the surface of the filter, causing the filter to be blocked, thereby affecting the quality of protein sample filtration. In addition, protein samples with higher viscosity have a slower flow rate, which increases the resistance to passing through the filter, resulting in a lot of time required for filtration, thereby reducing the efficiency of protein sample purification.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] See also Figures 1-4 , a protein sample purification device shown in the figure includes a tank body 101 and a plurality of support legs 102 arranged on the side wall of the tank body 101, and also includes a purification component arranged in the tank body 101 for purifying the protein sample;

[0021] The purification component includes a mounting plate 201 arranged on the inner wall of the tank body 101. A feed pipe 202 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 201 close to the support leg 102. Two symmetrically arranged connecting pipes 203 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the feed pipe 202. The ends of the two connecting pipes 203 away from each other are fixedly connected to filter cartridges 204. A rotating assembly for rotating the two filter cartridges 204 is provided on the side wall of the feed pipe 202. A material delivery pipe 205 is connected to the side of the mounting plate 201 away from the feed pipe 202 via a connecting assembly.

[0022] It should be noted here that: through the setting of the purification component, under the cooperation of the rotating component and the driving component, dynamic filtration of the protein sample is achieved, and the impurities that were originally statically attached to the surface of the filter mesh are no longer in stable contact with the filter cartridge 204 due to the action of centrifugal force and friction, which helps to break the adhesion between the impurities and the filter cartridge 204, thereby reducing the risk of impurities clogging the filter cartridge 204, and the rotation of the filter cartridge 204 will produce a fluid dynamic effect around it. This effect is similar to stirring or pumping, which can promote the protein sample to form a stronger flow around the filter cartridge 204. This enhanced flow helps to overcome the high viscosity of the protein sample, making it easier for it to pass through the pores of the filter cartridge 204, thereby improving the filtration efficiency of the protein sample.

[0023] It is worth noting that the filter cartridge 204 and the connecting pipe 203 are detachably connected.

[0024] See also Figure 4 , the bottom wall of the feed pipe 202 shown in the figure is fixedly connected with a tapered column 3, and the tapered small end of the tapered column 3 is arranged close to the mounting plate 201;

[0025] It should be noted that the conical column 3 is provided to divert the protein sample raw material entering the feed pipe 202 so that it flows into the two filter cartridges 204 in a relatively balanced manner.

[0026] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotating assembly shown in the figure includes a first bevel gear 401 rotatably connected to the side wall of the feed pipe 202, and the side walls of the two connecting pipes 203 are fixedly connected to the second bevel gears 402. The two second bevel gears 402 are meshed with the first bevel gear 401, and the mounting plate 201 is provided with a driving assembly for driving the first bevel gear 401;

[0027] It should be noted here that the provision of the rotating assembly facilitates the synchronous rotation of the two filter cartridges 204 .

[0028] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The driving assembly shown in the figure includes a driving rod 501 rotatably connected to the mounting plate 201, and one end of the driving rod 501 close to the filter cartridge 204 is fixedly connected to the first sprocket 502. A mounting ring 503 is sleeved on the side wall of the feed pipe 202, and one end of the mounting ring 503 is connected to the first bevel gear 401. A second sprocket 506 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting ring 503. The first sprocket 502 and the second sprocket 506 are connected by a chain 504. A motor 505 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 201 away from the filter cartridge 204, and the output end of the motor 505 is connected to the driving rod 501.

[0029] It should be noted here that the arrangement of the driving assembly facilitates the rotation of the first bevel gear 401 .

[0030] Working principle: During the protein sample purification process, the protein sample is first transported to the feed pipe 202 via the feed pipe 205, and then the protein sample flows into the two filter cartridges 204 under the diversion effect of the conical column 3;

[0031] During the process of protein sample raw material flowing into the filter cartridge 204, the motor 505 is started to drive the first sprocket 502 at one end of the driving rod 501 to rotate. During the rotation of the first sprocket 502, the second sprocket 506 is driven to rotate through the chain 504, and then the first bevel gear 401 is driven to rotate. During the rotation of the first bevel gear 401, the two filter cartridges 204 are driven to rotate under the mutual meshing transmission action of the first bevel gear 401 and the two second bevel gears 402. Therefore, during the rotation of the two filter cartridges 204, dynamic filtration of the protein sample is achieved, and the protein sample originally statically attached to the filter cartridge 204 is filtered. The impurities on the surface of the filter mesh are subjected to the effects of centrifugal force and friction, and their contact with the filter cartridge 204 becomes unstable, which helps to break the adhesion between the impurities and the filter cartridge 204, thereby reducing the risk of impurities clogging the filter cartridge 204. In addition, the rotation of the filter cartridge 204 will produce a fluid dynamic effect around it. This effect is similar to stirring or pumping, which can promote the protein sample to form a stronger flow around the filter cartridge 204. This enhanced flow helps to overcome the high viscosity of the protein sample, making it easier for it to pass through the pores of the filter cartridge 204, thereby improving the filtration efficiency of the protein sample.

[0033] See also Figure 4 This embodiment further explains Example 1. The connecting assembly shown in the figure includes a mounting tube 601 disposed on a side of the mounting plate 201 away from the filter cartridge 204. One end of the mounting tube 601 away from the mounting plate 201 is rotatably connected to a connecting ball 602. One end of the feed pipe 205 is connected to the connecting ball 602.

[0034] It should be noted that the connection assembly is provided to enable the delivery tube 205 to be rotatably connected to the mounting plate 201 , thereby facilitating the delivery of protein samples into the feed tube 202 from different directions.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
