[0002] An atomic absorption spectrophotometer is a specialized spectral detection instrument. The instrument emits light with characteristic spectral lines of the analyte from a light source. When the light passes through the sample vapor, it is absorbed by the ground-state atoms of the analyte in the vapor. The content of the analyte in the sample is determined by the degree to which the characteristic spectral lines of the emitted light are attenuated.
[0003] When processing the optical path in a light source, a grating is needed to decompose light of different wavelengths and direct it in different directions. In actual detection, the grating needs to be rotated and adjusted, as shown in the structure of an optical component and spectrometer disclosed in utility model patent application number 202221711473.9, where the grating is driven to rotate by a power transmission mechanism.

[0020] It should be noted that many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0021] Furthermore, it should be understood in the description of this utility model that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "axial," "radial," and "circumferential" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0022] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral unit; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. However, specifying a direct connection indicates that the two main bodies at the connection point are not connected by an intermediate structure, but are simply connected to form a whole through a connecting structure. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0023] In this utility model, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the first feature "on" or "below" the second feature may be in direct contact with the first and second features, or indirect contact through an intermediate medium. In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of this utility model. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.
[0024] In this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a grating rotation drive structure is provided, including a mounting frame 1 and a grating 2 rotatably disposed on the mounting frame 1. The drive structure further includes: a drive rod 3, one end of which is rotatably connected to the grating 2, and the other end forming a drive end 4; a linear drive assembly, including a slidable slider 5 and a drive member that drives the slider 5 to move, the slider 5 being able to drive the drive end 4 to move, so that the drive rod 3 drives the grating to rotate; and an elastic member, one end of which is connected to the drive rod 3 and the other end of which is connected to the mounting frame 1 or the slider 5, the elastic member being able to cause the drive end 4 to abut against the slider 5.
[0025] In use, the driving structure of this invention utilizes a driving component to move the slider 5, while an elastic component presses the driving section of the driving rod 3 against the slider 5. This allows the slider 5 to drive the driving rod 3 to rotate, thereby rotating the grating. The driving structure of this invention, by using an elastic component to press the driving end 4 of the driving rod 3 against the slider 5, maintains a tight fit between the slider 5 and the driving rod 3, preventing assembly gaps between the slider 5 and the driving rod 3 that could cause the grating to loosen. This allows for a simpler assembly method where the driving end 4 of the driving rod 3 abuts against the slider 5, reducing the requirements for assembly gaps. This invention controls the linear movement of the slider 5 to drive the rotation of the driving rod 3. By monitoring the movement position of the slider 5, the rotation angle of the grating 2 can be monitored. As shown in the figure, by utilizing the length of the driving rod 3 to amplify the travel distance of the slider 5 per unit angle rotation of the grating 2, the rotation angle of the grating 2 can be monitored relatively accurately based on the travel distance of the slider 5.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, more specifically regarding the structure of this utility model, the drive rod 3 is provided with a roller 6 at the drive end 4, and the roller 6 abuts against the slider 5.
[0027] As shown in the figure, by setting the roller 6, the relative movement between the drive end 4 of the drive rod 3 and the slider 5 can be made smoother.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, specifically regarding the structure of this invention, the slider 5 is provided with a guide strip 7 that abuts against the roller 6. As shown in the figure, by providing the guide strip 7, the roller 6 can roll along the guide strip 7.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, specifically regarding the structure of this utility model, the elastic element is configured as a spring 8. As shown in the figure, one end of the spring 8 is connected to the middle section of the drive rod 3, and the other end is connected to the mounting bracket 1. This allows the spring 8 to pull the drive rod 3 so that the roller 6 remains in contact with the guide bar 7 when the slider 5 pushes the drive end 4 of the drive rod 3 to move.
[0030] In an alternative embodiment, the spring 8 may also be fixed to the slider 5.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, more specifically regarding the structure of this utility model, the end of the drive rod 3 away from the drive end 4 is provided with a through groove 9, the grating 2 is provided with a connecting rod 10 that can pass through the through groove 9, and the portion of the connecting rod 10 extending out of the drive rod 3 is threadedly fitted with a fixing block 11.
[0032] As shown in the figure, this allows adjustment of the position of the connecting rod 10 within the through slot 9, determining the actual distance between the driving end 4 of the driving rod 3 and the rotation axis of the grating, thus facilitating adjustment of the rotation amplitude of the grating 2. After adjustment, the driving rod 3 can be fixed by screwing the fixing block 11 onto it.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, more specifically regarding the structure of this utility model, the driving component includes a lead screw 12 that cooperates with the slider 5 and a motor 13 that drives the lead screw 12 to rotate.
[0034] As shown in the figure, by using lead screw 12 to drive slider 5, the self-locking stability of lead screw 12 can ensure the angular stability after the grating rotation is adjusted. Moreover, the lead screw 12 can control the movement of slider 5 relatively stably.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment, more specifically regarding the structure of this utility model, the slider 5 is connected to a marking part 14, and the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a positioning switch 15 on the moving path of the slider 5.
[0036] As shown in the figure, the positioning switch 15 can periodically move the slider 5 to the position of the positioning switch 15 to mark the origin, so as to facilitate the initial position marking of the grating 2 before adjusting the angle.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment, specifically regarding the structure of this invention, the positioning switch 15 is configured as a photoelectric switch. As shown in the figure, the marking part 14 is configured as a marking plate for the slider 5. Moving the marking plate to the position of the photoelectric switch can trigger the photoelectric switch for origin positioning.
[0038] This invention also provides an atomic absorption spectrophotometer, including the grating rotation drive structure described above. It should be noted that the atomic absorption spectrophotometer of this invention only improves the rotation drive structure of the grating 2; it does not restrict improvements to other structural components of the atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
