[0038] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Example 1
[0039] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 7 A fully automatic liquid-liquid extraction and concentration apparatus includes: an extraction chamber 1, a concentration chamber 2 disposed on one side of the extraction chamber 1, a control cabinet 3 disposed on the other side of the extraction chamber 1, a fixed shell 4 mounted on the top of the control cabinet 3, a plurality of extraction bottles 5 disposed inside the fixed shell 4, a plurality of extraction tubes 14 disposed inside the extraction chamber 1, and a plurality of nitrogen blowing tubes 12 disposed inside the concentration chamber 2.
[0040] Both the top of the extraction tank 1 and the concentration tank 2 are equipped with extraction mechanisms 6. One end of each extraction mechanism 6 is equipped with an extraction three-way valve 22 and a concentration three-way valve 23. The two extraction mechanisms 6 are connected to each other through the extraction three-way valve 22. The flow pipes on multiple extraction bottles 5 are connected to the extraction mechanisms 6 on the extraction tank 1.
[0041] Solenoid valves are installed on the flow path tubes of multiple extraction bottles 5;
[0042] Both the extraction tank 1 and the concentration tank 2 are equipped with lifting mechanisms 9 on their inner top walls. Both lifting mechanisms 9 are equipped with diversion mechanisms 8, and one end of each diversion mechanism 8 is connected to the extraction three-way valve 22 and the concentration three-way valve 23, respectively.
[0043] The extraction tank 1 and the concentration tank 2 are respectively equipped with a fixed bracket 10 and a water bath device 11. The extraction tube 14 is inserted into the fixed buckle on the fixed bracket 10, and the nitrogen blowing tube 12 is inserted into the inner groove of the water bath device 11.
[0044] The inner bottom wall of the extraction box 1 is provided with a vibration mechanism 13, and the fixed bracket 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the vibration mechanism 13.
[0045] One end of the concentration three-way valve 23 on the concentration tank 2 is fixedly connected to the gas pipe 7, and the other end of the gas pipe 7 is connected to an external gas source.
[0046] This utility model provides a fully automatic liquid-liquid extraction and concentration apparatus. In use, as needed, the control cabinet 3 controls the opening of the solenoid valve on the flow path of one of the extraction bottles 5. Then, the extraction mechanism 6 on the extraction tank 1 extracts the extract from the bottle 5. The extract then passes through the extraction three-way valve 22 and the diversion mechanism 8 on the extraction tank 1, allowing the extract to be added into the extraction tube 14. After completion, the control cabinet 3 controls the lifting mechanism 9 to raise the diversion mechanism 8 away from the extraction tube 14. Then, the vibration mechanism 13 causes the extraction tube 14 to vibrate up and down, ensuring thorough mixing of the extract and liquid within the extraction tube 14, achieving the extraction purpose. Finally, the control cabinet 3 controls the lifting mechanism 9 in both the extraction tank 1 and the concentration tank 2 to activate the diversion mechanism. The flow path of the extraction mechanism 6 is closed by the extraction three-way valve 22 on the extraction tank 1. Then, the extractant in the extraction tube 14 is extracted by the extraction mechanism 6 on the concentration tank 2 and the diversion mechanism 8 on the extraction tank 1. At the same time, the extracted extractant is added to the nitrogen blowing pipe 12 by the concentration three-way valve 23 on the concentration tank 2 and the diversion mechanism 8. Then, the control cabinet 3 controls the concentration three-way valve 23 on the concentration tank 2 to close the flow path of the extraction mechanism 6. After that, the external gas line enters the water bath device 11 through the gas line pipe 7 and its pressure dividing valve and diversion mechanism 8 for nitrogen blowing concentration. At the same time, the mechanism on the extraction tank 1 repeats the above steps to enter the next extraction process, so that the device can perform both extraction and concentration.
[0047] Additionally, it should be noted that the extraction tube 14 is designed with a pre-cut gasket to facilitate the addition of liquid by the diversion mechanism 8, while the oscillating extraction prevents the liquid from flowing out and being consumed.
[0048] Furthermore, the extraction mechanism 6 includes a metering pump 61, with an extraction pipe 62 fixedly connected to the input end of the metering pump 61 and a delivery pipe 63 fixedly connected to the output end of the metering pump 61. The extraction three-way valve 22 and the concentration three-way valve 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the two delivery pipes 63, and the flow path pipes on the multiple extraction bottles 5 are all connected to the extraction pipe 62 on the extraction box 1.
[0049] Specifically, the extractant in the extract bottle 5 can be extracted by the metering pump 61 and the extraction tube 62 on the extraction tank 1, and then the extractant can be added to the extraction tube 14 for extraction by the delivery tube 63. Then, the extractant in the extraction tube 14 can be transferred to the nitrogen blowing tube 12 for concentration by the cooperation of the metering pump 61, the extraction tube 62 and the delivery tube 63 on the concentration tank 2.
[0050] Furthermore, the vibration mechanism 13 includes a fixed frame 1301 fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the extraction tank 1. A cross rod 1302 is provided through the fixed frame 1301, and a fixed bracket 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the cross rod 1302. A drive mechanism 1303 is provided on the fixed frame 1301, and the drive mechanism 1303 is connected to the cross rod 1302.
[0051] Specifically, the drive mechanism 1303 drives the cross rod 1302 inserted on the fixed frame 1301 to move up and down, thereby enabling the fixed support 10 to drive the extraction tube 14 to vibrate up and down, so that the extract liquid and liquid in the extraction tube 14 can be fully mixed to achieve the extraction purpose.
[0052] Furthermore, the drive mechanism 1303 includes a first motor 13031 fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 1301. The output end of the first motor 13031 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 13032. The bottom of the connecting rod 13032 is fixedly connected to a cam 13033, and the bottom of the cross rod 1302 is connected to the cam 13033.
[0053] Specifically, the first motor 13031 drives the connecting rod 13032, and then the connecting rod 13032 drives the cam 13033 to rotate, so that the cross rod 1302 can move up and down under the action of the cam 13033.
[0054] Furthermore, a ball groove is provided at the bottom of the cross bar 1302, and a ball 15 is provided inside the ball groove. The outer wall of the ball 15 is in contact with the cam 13033 to realize the vibration extraction function.
[0055] Specifically, the ball bearing 15 reduces the friction between the cross bar 1302 and the cam 13033, thereby enabling the cross bar 1302 to rise and fall easily.
[0056] Furthermore, the diversion mechanism 8 includes a hose 81 that is fixedly installed at one end of the extraction three-way valve 22 and the concentration three-way valve 23, forming a collection of multiple diversion hoses. The other end of the hose 81 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 82, and multiple diversion stainless steel metal pipes 83 are sequentially fixedly installed on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 82 in a circular array.
[0057] Specifically, the extract can be diverted into multiple extraction tubes 14 or nitrogen blowing tubes 12 via the hose 81, connecting tube 82 and diversion stainless steel metal tube 83. At the same time, the lifting mechanism 9 can drive the connecting tube 82 and diversion stainless steel metal tube 83 to rise and fall without affecting the diversion.
[0058] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism 9 includes an electric telescopic rod 91, with a fixed plate 92 fixedly installed at the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 91, and a connecting pipe 82 passing through and installed on the fixed plate 92.
[0059] Specifically, the electric telescopic rod 91 drives the fixed plate 92 to descend, allowing the extractant to enter the extraction tube 14 and the nitrogen blowing tube 12. When no additional liquid is needed, the electric telescopic rod 91 drives the fixed plate 92 to rise, thereby moving the diversion stainless steel metal tube 83 away from the extraction tube 14 and the nitrogen blowing tube 12. This allows the fixed support 10 to rotate and centrifuge for stratification, and also makes it easier to remove the nitrogen blowing tube 12 from the water bath device 11. Example 2
[0060] Based on Embodiment 1, in this embodiment: a second motor 16 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 1301 via a mounting bracket. The output end of the second motor 16 is fixedly connected to an active synchronous wheel 17. A hollow cylinder 18 is provided through the fixed frame 1301, and the hollow cylinder 18 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1301. A cross rod 1302 is located inside the hollow cylinder 18. A driven synchronous wheel 19 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the hollow cylinder 18, and the active synchronous wheel 17 and the driven synchronous wheel 19 are tensioned and meshed. The second motor 16 is used to drive the hollow cylinder 18 to rotate, thereby realizing the low-speed centrifugal function. Multiple strip plates 20 are fixedly mounted in a circular array on the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 18. Multiple strip grooves 21 are opened in a circular array on the outer wall of the cross rod 1302, and the strip plates 20 and the strip grooves 21 are interlocked.
[0061] The technical solution provided in this embodiment is as follows: the second motor 16 drives the active synchronous wheel 17 to rotate, and then the rotating active synchronous wheel 17 drives the driven synchronous wheel 19 through the synchronous belt, so that the hollow cylinder 18 rotatably mounted on the fixed frame 1301 can rotate. Then, the rotating hollow cylinder 18, with the cooperation of the strip plate 20 and the strip groove 21, can drive the cross rod 1302 and the fixed bracket 10 to rotate, thereby achieving the centrifugation function, which can make the sample liquid and the extract liquid in the extraction tube 14 quickly separate into layers and prevent emulsification.
[0062] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
