[0002] In food testing, sample impurity separation is a crucial step that helps improve the accuracy and sensitivity of detection. Vacuum filtration and Buchner funnels are commonly used laboratory tools that play a vital role in sample preparation, especially when separating solid and liquid components. In practical applications, Buchner funnels are often used in conjunction with vacuum filtration devices for extracting crystals or separating solid and liquid mixtures in chemical experiments.

[0003] Currently, when Buchner funnels are used for impurity separation in food testing samples, their generally integrated structure and the semi-closed state between the filter plate and the outlet tube make thorough cleaning difficult, which can easily lead to cross-contamination when testing different food samples.

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a sample impurity separation device for food testing to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a sample impurity separation device for food testing, addressing the issue that existing Buchner funnels, when used for impurity separation in food testing samples, suffer from cross-contamination due to their generally integrated structure and the semi-closed state between the filter plate and the outlet pipe, which hinders thorough cleaning and makes them prone to thorough cleaning when testing different food samples.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A sample impurity separation device for food testing includes a filter flask and a Buchner funnel. The Buchner funnel is inserted and installed at the upper port of the filter flask.

[0010] Optionally, the top center of the outlet pipe is provided with an outlet channel, the bottom center of the outlet pipe is provided with an outlet that communicates with the outlet channel, and the top outer edge of the outlet pipe is provided with a second threaded portion, which is threadedly engaged with the inner wall of the lower port of the funnel cylinder.

[0011] Optionally, a second sealing ring is provided around the top of the liquid outlet pipe, and the second sealing ring is located between the liquid outlet pipe and the funnel body to form a seal.

[0012] Optionally, a rubber sleeve is fitted on the port of the filtration tube away from the outlet tube, and a sealing plug is connected to the rubber sleeve and inserted into the port of the filtration tube.

[0013] Optionally, a rubber ring is fixed around the middle of the outlet tube, and the rubber ring is inserted into the upper port of the filter bottle to form a seal.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] In the above solution, thanks to the Buchner funnel formed by the combination and disassembly of the funnel body, filter separation cylinder, and liquid outlet pipe, the Buchner funnel itself is easy to disassemble, which facilitates thorough cleaning of the Buchner funnel. This effectively avoids cross-contamination problems caused by incomplete cleaning of the Buchner funnel when separating impurities from different food samples. Therefore, it can improve the impurity separation effect when continuously used for testing different food samples, and help improve the accuracy of food sample testing.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a sample impurity separation device for food testing, including a filter bottle 1 and a Buchner funnel 2. The Buchner funnel 2 is inserted and installed at the upper port of the filter bottle 1. The Buchner funnel 2 includes a funnel body 3, a filtration separation cylinder 4, and a liquid outlet pipe 5. The filtration separation cylinder 4 is detachably fixed to the upper port of the funnel body 3, and a filter plate 401 is provided at the bottom of the filtration separation cylinder 4. (Specific details omitted) Figure 3 As shown, the bottom outer edge of the filter separation cylinder 4 is provided with a first threaded portion 402. The first threaded portion 402 is threadedly engaged with the inner wall of the upper port of the funnel cylinder 3 to detachably install the filter separation cylinder 4 onto the upper port of the funnel cylinder 3. The top of the filter separation cylinder 4 is surrounded by a first sealing ring 403. The first sealing ring 403 is located between the filter separation cylinder 4 and the funnel cylinder 3 to form a seal, thereby ensuring a tight fit between the funnel cylinder 3 and the filter separation cylinder 4 after installation.

[0032] The liquid outlet pipe 5 is detachably fixed to the lower port of the funnel body 3, specifically in conjunction with... Figure 4 As shown, the top center of the outlet pipe 5 is provided with an outlet channel 501, and the bottom center of the outlet pipe 5 is provided with an outlet 502 communicating with the outlet channel 501. The top outer edge of the outlet pipe 5 is constructed with a second threaded portion 503, which is threadedly engaged with the inner wall of the lower port of the funnel body 3 to detachably install the outlet pipe 5 to the lower port of the funnel body 3. The top of the outlet pipe 5 is surrounded by a second sealing ring 504, which is located between the outlet pipe 5 and the funnel body 3 to form a seal, thereby ensuring a tight fit between the outlet pipe 5 and the funnel body 3 after installation.

[0033] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, a filtration tube 7 is fixed to the top side of the outlet pipe 5, and a filtration port 701 is provided on the bottom side of the outlet pipe 5. An independent channel connecting the filtration tube 7 and the filtration port 701 is opened in the middle of the inner wall of the outlet pipe 5, so that the Buchner funnel 2 can form a vacuum channel through the arrangement of the filtration tube 7 and the filtration port 701, without the need for the filter bottle 1 itself to be equipped with a vacuum filter nozzle. Therefore, the versatility of this device can be improved. At the same time, a rubber sleeve 8 is fitted on the port of the filtration tube 7 away from the outlet pipe 5. The rubber sleeve 8 is connected to a sealing plug 801. The sealing plug 801 is inserted into the port of the filtration tube 7, so that it can be sealed when the vacuum filter nozzle channel formed by the filtration tube 7 and the filtration port 701 is not needed.

[0034] In this embodiment, a rubber ring 6 is also fixed around the middle of the outlet pipe 5. The rubber ring 6 is inserted into the upper port of the filter bottle 1 to form a seal, so that the filter bottle 1 and the Buchner funnel 2 can be sealed.

[0035] The working principle provided by this utility model is that, in use, the food testing sample impurity separation device can be formed by installing the filter separation cylinder 4 on the top of the funnel body 3 and the liquid outlet pipe 5 on the bottom of the funnel body 3 to form a Buchner funnel 2. Then, a suitable filter cloth can be laid on the filter plate 401 to filter the food sample. The vacuum filtration pipe 7 and the vacuum filtration port 701 set on the liquid outlet pipe 5 are connected to a negative pressure device to perform vacuum filtration operation.

[0036] Meanwhile, when using this device to separate impurities from different food samples, the Buchner funnel 2 can be easily disassembled for thorough cleaning. This effectively avoids cross-contamination caused by incomplete cleaning of the Buchner funnel 2 when separating impurities from different food samples. Therefore, it can improve the impurity separation effect when continuously testing different food samples, and help improve the accuracy of food sample testing.

[0037] In addition, the suction filter tube 7 and suction filter port 701 provided on the side of the liquid outlet tube 5 make the Buchner funnel 2 suitable for various sizes of filter bottles 1, without the need for the filter bottle 1 itself to have a vacuum suction nozzle. Therefore, the applicability of this device can be effectively improved and its versatility is strong.

[0038] In summary, this device is not only convenient and thorough to clean, avoiding cross-contamination problems that may occur during food sample testing, but it can also be adapted to containers of various sizes for filtration, making it highly versatile.
