Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of chemical medicine, and in particular to an extraction device. Background Art

[0002] Liquid-liquid extraction is a common operation in the chemical and pharmaceutical fields. Liquid-liquid extraction, also known as solvent extraction or extraction, is the process of separating and extracting components in a liquid mixture using a liquid solvent. An immiscible solvent is added to the liquid mixture, and the different solubilities of its components in the solvent are utilized to achieve the purpose of separation or extraction. For example, n-butanol is used to extract the active ingredients of a drug from an aqueous extract of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0003] The separation of two immiscible phases in existing extraction devices mainly relies on manual visual observation. However, manual visual observation is affected by factors such as personnel operating experience, and large errors are prone to occur in the judgment of the separation point of the two immiscible phases. In particular, large errors are more likely to occur in the judgment of the separation point of the two immiscible phases with a small color difference, which can easily lead to problems such as the upper liquid phase flowing into the collected lower liquid phase, making it difficult to effectively achieve the separation of the two immiscible phases.

[0074] For the sake of convenience, the following Figure 1 To further describe the present invention, it should be understood that the accompanying drawings do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0075] The utility model provides an extraction device, which includes a liquid tank 1, a capillary tube 2 and a liquid tube 3;

[0076] One end of the capillary tube is an open end, and the other end of the capillary tube is a closed end. The open end of the capillary tube is connected to the bottom of the liquid tank and communicates with the tank cavity of the liquid tank. A through hole 4 is provided on the side wall of the capillary tube.

[0077] One end of the liquid tube is connected to the bottom of the liquid tank, and the other end of the liquid tube is connected to the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube. A sliding plate 5 is provided in the lumen of the capillary tube, and the sliding plate is sealed to the inner wall of the lumen of the capillary tube. The lower surface of the sliding plate is connected to the inner wall of the closed end of the capillary tube via a return spring 6.

[0078] The lower plate surface of the sliding plate is located above the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube, and the lower plate surface of the sliding plate is in contact with the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube;

[0079] A first liquid outlet pipe 7 is provided on the closed end of the capillary tube, and a first valve 8 is provided on the first liquid outlet pipe. A second liquid outlet pipe 9 is provided on the bottom of the liquid tank, and a second valve 10 is provided on the second liquid outlet pipe.

[0080] The extraction device of the present invention can facilitate the determination of the separation of two immiscible phases, thereby effectively achieving the separation of the two immiscible phases. A typical working principle is as follows:

[0081] (1) After liquid-liquid extraction is performed in the liquid tank, two immiscible liquids (such as aqueous liquid and organic liquid) are separated into upper and lower layers in the liquid tank, the upper layer being a liquid phase with low density, and the lower layer being a liquid phase with high density, and the liquid tube, the tube cavity between the lower plate surface of the sliding plate and the closed end of the capillary tube, and the tube cavity between the upper plate surface of the sliding plate and the open end of the capillary tube are filled with the lower layer phase with high density. At this time, compared with the case where no liquid is added to the liquid tank, the sliding plate in the tube cavity of the capillary tube will move a distance toward the tank cavity of the liquid tank due to buoyancy;

[0082] (2) Then, after opening the first valve on the first liquid outlet pipe, the lower phase flows out from the first liquid outlet pipe for collection. When the liquid tank contains the lower phase, the buoyancy of the sliding plate in the tube cavity of the capillary tube remains unchanged during the lower phase flowing out from the first liquid outlet pipe. Therefore, the position of the sliding plate in the tube cavity of the capillary tube remains unchanged. When the lower phase in the liquid tank is separated in the liquid tank (that is, when the liquid tank begins to no longer contain the lower phase), the upper phase with low density begins to flow into the liquid tube. At this time, due to the liquid phase with low density flowing into the liquid tube, the capillary tube The buoyancy of the sliding plate within the lumen begins to decrease, and the sliding plate begins to move in the direction of the return spring. Therefore, the movement of the sliding plate in the direction of the return spring indicates that the lower phase in the liquid tank has been completely separated. At this time, the first valve on the first liquid outlet pipe is closed to prevent the upper phase from entering the collected lower phase, thereby achieving effective and accurate separation of the lower phase. Therefore, after liquid-liquid extraction, simply observing the sliding plate begin to move in the direction of the return spring can be used to accurately determine that the lower phase in the liquid tank has been completely separated. After the lower phase is separated from the liquid tank, only the upper phase remains in the liquid tank. The second valve on the second liquid outlet pipe is opened to collect the upper phase in the liquid tank.

[0083] It should be understood in the present invention that, compared with the tank cavity volume of the liquid tank, the lumen volumes of the thin tube and the liquid tube can be set to be negligible.

[0084] The tank bottom wall of the liquid tank of the utility model can be a plane wall, and the liquid tank can be a cubic tank or a cylindrical tank.

[0085] In a preferred example of the present invention, the connection between the open end of the capillary tube and the bottom of the liquid tank and the connection between one end of the liquid tube and the bottom of the liquid tank are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0086] The tube lumens of the capillary tube and the liquid tube of the present invention can be cylindrical or cubical. Preferably, the capillary tube is a transparent capillary tube, through which the sliding of the sliding plate on the inner wall of the tube lumen of the capillary tube can be easily observed.

[0087] In a preferred example of the present invention, scale lines are provided on the side wall of the capillary tube, and the scale lines can be arranged up and down along the side wall of the capillary tube, and the scale lines can easily display the sliding of the sliding plate in the capillary tube.

[0088] The liquid tank of the present invention may further include an agitator capable of stirring the tank cavity. When two immiscible liquids are added to the tank, the agitator may be used to thoroughly stir the liquid before allowing the liquid to stand and separate, thereby improving extraction efficiency. The components of the agitator of the present invention are not particularly limited and include (but are not limited to) a stirring blade, etc.

[0089] The main excellent technical effects of this utility model include:

[0090] 1. The utility model develops an extraction device, which facilitates the separation of two immiscible phases, thereby effectively achieving the separation of the two immiscible phases.

[0091] 2. The structure and operation of the extraction device of the utility model are simple, which is conducive to industrial production.

[0092] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0093] Example 1

[0094] This embodiment 1 provides an extraction device, which includes a liquid tank 1, a capillary tube 2 and a liquid tube 3;

[0095] One end of the capillary tube is an open end, and the other end of the capillary tube is a closed end. The open end of the capillary tube is connected to the bottom of the liquid tank and communicates with the tank cavity of the liquid tank. A through hole 4 is provided on the side wall of the capillary tube.

[0096] One end of the liquid tube is connected to the bottom of the liquid tank, and the other end of the liquid tube is connected to the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube. A sliding plate 5 is provided in the lumen of the capillary tube, and the sliding plate is sealed to the inner wall of the lumen of the capillary tube. The lower surface of the sliding plate is connected to the inner wall of the closed end of the capillary tube via a return spring 6.

[0097] The lower plate surface of the sliding plate is located above the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube, and the lower plate surface of the sliding plate is in contact with the through hole on the side wall of the capillary tube;

[0098] A first liquid outlet pipe 7 is provided on the closed end of the capillary tube, and a first valve 8 is provided on the first liquid outlet pipe. A second liquid outlet pipe 9 is provided on the bottom of the liquid tank, and a second valve 10 is provided on the second liquid outlet pipe.

[0099] The tank bottom wall of the liquid tank is a plane wall.

[0100] The extraction device described in Example 1 facilitates the determination of the separation of two immiscible phases, thereby effectively achieving the separation of the two immiscible phases. The specific working principle is as follows:

[0101] After liquid-liquid extraction is performed in the liquid tank, the two immiscible liquids are separated into upper and lower layers in the liquid tank. After the first valve on the first liquid outlet pipe is opened, the lower phase with a larger density flows out from the first liquid outlet pipe for collection. When the liquid tank contains the lower phase, the position of the sliding plate in the lumen of the capillary tube remains unchanged during the process of the lower phase flowing out of the first liquid outlet pipe. When the lower phase in the liquid tank is separated in the liquid tank (that is, when the liquid tank begins to no longer contain the lower phase), the upper phase with a smaller density begins to flow into the liquid tube. At this time, due to the inflow of the density phase into the liquid tube, the upper phase with a smaller density begins to flow into the liquid tube. When the liquid phase is small, the buoyancy of the sliding plate in the lumen of the capillary tube begins to decrease, and the sliding plate begins to move in the direction of the return spring. The movement of the sliding plate in the direction of the return spring indicates that the lower phase in the liquid tank has been separated. Therefore, simply by observing that the sliding plate begins to move in the direction of the return spring, it can be used to accurately determine that the lower phase in the liquid tank has been separated. At this time, the first valve on the first liquid outlet pipe is closed to prevent the upper phase from entering the collected lower phase, thereby achieving effective and accurate separation of the lower phase. After the lower phase is separated from the liquid tank, the liquid tank only contains the upper phase. The second valve on the second liquid outlet pipe is opened to collect the upper phase in the liquid tank.

[0102] Therefore, the extraction device described in this embodiment 1 can facilitate the separation of two immiscible phases, thereby effectively achieving the separation of the two immiscible phases.

[0103] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
