Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of organic element analysis and testing, in particular to a sample preparation platform for organic element analysis solid samples. Background Art
[0002] Organic elemental analysis (C, H, N, O, S) is a crucial technique for characterizing sample composition and purity, widely used in fields such as chemical and pharmaceutical products, food and agricultural products, the environment, materials, petroleum and energy, and geology. Elemental analysis not only reveals the composition and content of organic elements, but also allows for the inference of molecular formulas and calculations of grafting and doping, playing a crucial role in determining the structure of substances and measuring their properties. Organic elemental analysis testing requires precise sample weighing and proper preparation. Efficient and rapid sample preparation is a key factor influencing measurement.
[0003] The sample preparation process of solid samples for organic element analysis includes sample addition, sample pressing, and sampling. Traditional sample preparation is mainly completed by manual operation with the help of tools such as tweezers (such as Figure 1 (as shown): Add the sample to the tin cup on the sample preparation board and accurately weigh the sample (adding the sample); completely enclose the sample in the tin cup by squeezing out air, folding the cup multiple times, and compacting it (sampling); then remove the sample and store it on a sample tray (sampling). Commonly used tin cups are small (3-6mm in diameter, 4-12mm in height). Using tools like tweezers to squeeze and fold the cup often results in damage and sample leakage due to ineffective hand coordination and the sharp tips of the tweezers rubbing against the foil. Sample preparation is also inefficient, often requiring several minutes or even more than ten minutes to prepare a single sample.
[0004] At present, the devices provided by the existing technologies CN109668773A and CN104236989A mainly improve the speed and efficiency of sample pressing by pressing the handle or the pressure rod. However, after the sample is pressed, it is not convenient to remove the sample with the devices provided by CN109668773A and CN104236989A. The sample needs to be pushed out by disassembling the sample trough and then reinstalled. Elemental analysis is mostly done in large quantities. Repeated disassembly and reassembly of accessories greatly increases the operation time. At the same time, the device is equipped with vulnerable parts such as springs, which have a certain service life. After a large number of samples are used, they are prone to aging, causing problems such as sample jamming. In addition, for different types of samples, the sample preparation tools and utensils need to be thoroughly cleaned before each sample preparation. These two sample packaging devices require the disassembly of accessories, which increases the difficulty of cleaning.
[0005] CN202508338U discloses a multi-combination sample packaging auxiliary tool, including a template formed by a movably connected lid and a base plate, the template lid is provided with circular and rectangular through holes of different specifications for positioning the tin cup; and tweezers, spoons and shovels that can realize the loading of solid samples, compaction and pushing out of the tin cup. When the tool provided by CN202508338U presses the sample, the sample and the through-hole wall are in close contact after being compacted in the through-hole, and sampling requires applying a certain force to push the sample out. The method provided is to push the sample out by raising the lid, but the force point of this pushing method is not easy to control, and the device may be displaced during the pushing process. At the same time, the sample may roll and fall off the base plate during the pushing process. The whole process is not easy to operate.
[0006] Therefore, it is crucial to provide a solid sample preparation platform for organic element analysis that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
