Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] In this embodiment, if Figures 1-8As shown, a chemical oxygen demand (COD) digestion device includes a base plate 101. A heat insulation plate 102 and a support column 103 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the base plate 101. The support column 103 is located on one side of the heat insulation plate 102. A digestion box 104 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the heat insulation plate 102, which serves to isolate the base plate 101 from the digestion box 104. The digestion box 104 has several mounting holes 105 for placing digestion tubes. A heating element 106 is also installed inside the digestion box 104 to perform high-temperature heating on the digestion tubes. The heating element 106 is located below the mounting holes 105. The digestion box 104 can be made of high-density aluminum alloy material to ensure excellent thermal conductivity, thereby achieving the heating effect on the digestion tubes.

[0031] It also includes a heat dissipation mechanism 200 and a quantitative injection mechanism 300. The heat dissipation mechanism 200 is located on the outside of the digestion box 104 and is used to dissipate heat and insulate the digestion box 104. The quantitative injection mechanism 300 is located above the digestion box 104 and is used to realize the synchronous injection of different solvent liquids into the liquid storage hole 302. The quantitative injection mechanism 300 is connected to the support column 103 through a moving component, which facilitates the adjustment of the height of the quantitative injection mechanism 300 so that the quantitative cylinder 303 can correspond to the digestion tube.

[0032] The moving component includes a groove 107 formed on the surface of the support column 103, a screw 108 rotatably disposed inside the groove 107, a sliding plate 109 threaded on the screw 108, the sliding plate 109 slidably connected to the groove 107, and one end of the screw 108 extends to the outside of the support column 103 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the moving motor.

[0033] Among them, such as Figures 2-6 As shown, the heat dissipation mechanism 200 includes several sliding brackets 201. Heat sinks 202 and heat insulation plates 203 are slidably disposed inside the sliding brackets 201. Both the heat sinks 202 and the heat insulation plates 203 can be fixed to their positions relative to the sliding brackets 201 by bolts. The heat insulation plates 203 are disposed on the side of the heat sinks 202 closest to the digestion chamber 104, and are in contact with the surface of the digestion chamber 104. This effectively prevents heat loss during digestion, saving resources. Multiple heat dissipation fins 204 are fixedly disposed on the side of the heat sinks 202 away from the digestion chamber 104. When cooling is required, the heat insulation plates 203 are slid to the side of the digestion chamber 104, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency.

[0034] Among them, such as Figures 2-8As shown, the quantitative injection mechanism 300 includes a liquid storage tank 301 fixedly connected to the slide plate 109. The liquid storage tank 301 has several liquid storage holes 302 evenly spaced inside, facilitating quantitative and synchronous injection operations and reducing the impact of time on the digestion results. Several metering cylinders 303 are arranged below the liquid storage tank 301. Each metering cylinder 303 includes a cylinder body and an injection head. The injection head is equipped with a solenoid valve for controlling its opening and closing. The metering cylinders 303 are connected to the liquid storage tank 301 via a bracket, facilitating the fixing of the metering cylinders 303. The metering cylinder 303 has a sliding push plate 304 inside. An adjustment component is provided above the metering cylinder 303 to drive the push plate 304 to move. The adjustment component enables the metered injection effect. An infusion tube 305 is connected to the push plate 304. The infusion tube 305 is made of a corrosion-resistant material with good elasticity. The other end of the infusion tube 305 is connected to the liquid storage hole 302. A control valve is provided on the infusion tube 305. The control valve is a solenoid valve-like structure for easy control. The opening and closing of the infusion tube 305 and the infusion efficiency are controlled by the control valve.

[0035] Among them, such as Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes several positioning blocks 306 fixedly installed on the lower surface of the storage tank 301. Gears 307 are rotatably installed inside each positioning block 306. One end of the shaft of each gear 307 extends to the outside of the positioning block 306 and is connected to the output end of a rotary motor. The rotary motor drives the gears 307 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 308 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the position of the push plate 304. This ensures that the volume between the metering cylinder 303 and the push plate 304 is controllable, facilitating subsequent digestion operations. A rack 308 is meshed with one side of the gear 307. The lower end of the rack 308 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the push plate 304. A guide hole is provided on the positioning block 306, and the rack 308 is slidably connected to the guide hole, serving as a guide and limiting element.

[0036] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, a control panel is provided on one side of the base plate 101. The control panel is electrically connected to the heating element 106 and the rotary motor. The control panel is also electrically connected to other electrical components for easy operation.

[0037] Among them, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a cover plate 110 for covering the digestion tube is slidably provided on the upper end of the digestion box 104. The cover plate 110 is fixedly connected to the digestion box 104 by bolts. Compared with the open digestion reaction, the reaction time can be greatly shortened, which is conducive to ensuring the consistency of the overall time of the device.

[0038] Among them, such as Figure 1As shown, the metering cylinder 303 has graduation lines on its outer surface. The metering cylinder 303 is made of transparent material to facilitate real-time observation of the content inside the metering cylinder 303. The number and position of the metering cylinders 303 are matched with the number and position of the liquid storage holes 302 to ensure the normal operation of the device.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] The difference from Example 1 is that, as in Example 1, Figures 4-6 As shown, it also includes a placement groove 111 on the upper surface of the digestion chamber 104. A movable frame 112 is provided inside the placement groove 111. Multiple limiting holes 113 are evenly opened on the movable frame 112. The size and number of the limiting holes 113 are adapted to the size and number of the digestion tubes. High-temperature resistant and heat-insulating carrying plates are provided on both sides of the movable frame 112. After digestion, the movable frame 112 along with all the digestion tubes containing the sample solution can be taken out by the carrying plates and placed into the dish position inside the photometer. The size of the digestion tube is adapted to the size of the photometer dish position, so that the detection results can be obtained by the photometer without titration.

[0041] In use, first place the corresponding volume of test sample solution inside the digestion tube, then place several digestion tubes inside the mounting hole 105. In the initial state, the push plate 304 is at the bottom of the metering cylinder 303. The control panel controls the rotary motor and valve body to execute corresponding commands. The rotary motor drives the gear 307 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 308 to move upward, so that the metering cylinder 303 generates a corresponding suction force, thereby inputting the corresponding volume of solution into the metering cylinder 303. After the quantitative absorption operation is completed, the moving motor drives the screw 108 to rotate, so that the injection head on the metering cylinder 303 corresponds to the digestion tube. After the injection operation is completed, the heating plate 106 is activated to start the digestion operation.

[0042] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
