TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field related to oscillator, concretely is a vortex oscillator. BACKGROUND
[0002] In natural science experiments, it is often necessary to mix various reagents, solutions or chemical substances for processing to ensure uniformity of reactants, thereby improving reaction efficiency and product quality. This requirement is particularly prominent in fields such as chemical analysis, life sciences, environmental monitoring, and material preparation. In particular, in a laboratory environment, the oscillation mixing of reagent centrifuge tubes is a common and important operation. Traditional mixing methods often rely on manual oscillation or the use of simple mechanical mixers, such as a shaking bed, a roller mixer, etc. Manual oscillation is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also unstable in mixing effect. While traditional mechanical mixers achieve a certain degree of automation, their mixing force is weak. To overcome these shortcomings, vortex oscillators have emerged.
[0003] A vortex oscillator is a device that uses electromagnetic induction and mechanical motion principles to mix samples through rotational motion or vortex oscillation. It uses magnetic force to drive shaft movement, causing the sample in the sample container (such as a centrifuge tube) to rotate and mix, thereby breaking the laminar flow in the sample and promoting uniform mixing of the sample. In addition, the vortex oscillator can also drive the shaking bed below to move up and down constantly, generating shear force and flexural stress inside the liquid, forming a vortex, and further improving the mixing effect.
