Especially in clinical chromatography and mass spectrometry therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) system, although the high pressure pipeline and joint of traditional 316L stainless steel material have excellent mechanical strength (pressure value can reach 70-100MPa), but there is a risk of Fe ion dissolution under high pressure operation environment, which makes it not suitable for clinical detection scene. Although the elastic capillary tube made of PEEK (polyether ether ketone) high polymer material can effectively avoid the problem of metal ion pollution, but due to the strength of PEEK material, the existing joint will cause local ring extrusion PEEK capillary tube, which will cause stress concentration, and the capillary tube will be deformed and even blocked, and the capillary tube will be exploded or the capillary tube will be reversed.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:
[0012] In the high-pressure-resistant integrated connector, the first screw is screwed in to make the first tapered head and the interface be pressed against each other, so that the first tapered head deforms and shrinks the capillary tube hole, thereby realizing the sealing and the first-stage fastening of the capillary tube.
[0013] In the high-pressure-resistant integrated connector, the tapered end of the second screw gradually presses against the tapered hole of the tail portion of the first screw to deform during the process of being screwed into the tail hole of the first screw, thereby shrinking the capillary tube and forming the third-stage fastening, and further enhancing the fastening of the connector to the capillary tube.
[0014] The high-pressure-resistant integrated connector divides the fastening of the capillary tube into multiple stages by the first screw and the second screw, thereby dispersing the stress points of the capillary tube, eliminating the stress concentration phenomenon of the capillary tube, and greatly reducing the force borne by each stress point of the capillary tube, so that the capillary tube is prevented from being deformed and blocked due to stress concentration.
