Furthermore, this SPE device reduces floor space, increases the amount of sample processed per unit time, and lowers detection costs. However, conventional SPE uses manual sample loading, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The SPE column is also prone to clogging, resulting in significant resource consumption. Fully automated SPE equipment, on the other hand, is more economically costly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic solid-phase extraction device for large-volume water samples, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the need for manual sample loading in current solid-phase extraction devices on the market, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to column clogging, resulting in high consumption of manpower and resources; and the high economic cost of using fully automatic solid-phase extraction equipment.

[0010] Preferably, a positioning plate is fixed to the side of the second adjustment seat by welding, and the particulate filter is engaged through the positioning plate.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic solid-phase extraction device for large-volume water samples, comprising a solid-phase extraction device body 1, a solid-phase extraction column 8 on the solid-phase extraction device body 1, a capped bottle 10 for holding large-volume water samples on the solid-phase extraction device body 1, and a disposable infusion set 4 sealed and inserted into the cap of the capped bottle 10. The disposable infusion set 4 is equipped with an infusion tubing 404, and the infusion tubing 404 is sequentially equipped with a drip chamber 401, a particle filter 402, a flow regulator 403, and an injection needle 405 from top to bottom. A support base 9 is provided at the bottom of the solid-phase extraction device body 1, and a movable rod 3 and a positioning rod 6 are provided on the solid-phase extraction device body 1 that are movably inserted and engaged with each other, and the positioning rod 6 is welded... On the support base 9, universal wheels 902 are evenly spaced and bolted to the bottom of the support base 9. This structure allows the solid phase extraction device body 1 to have a telescopic rod structure through the cooperation of the movable rod 3 and the positioning rod 6, which facilitates the lifting and adjustment of the solid phase extraction device body 1. The universal wheels 902 facilitate the movement and handling of the solid phase extraction device body 1. The movable rod 3 is fitted with a first adjusting seat 2 and a second adjusting seat 5, and the sides of the first adjusting seat 2 and the second adjusting seat 5 are fastened to the movable rod 3 by through bolts. This structure allows the first adjusting seat 2 and the second adjusting seat 5 to be adjusted in position on the movable rod 3. After the side of the first adjusting seat 2 is inserted, it is bolted to the positioning frame 201, and the positioning frame 201 is integrally bent to form a circle. The ring-shaped collar 202 allows the positioning frame 201 to be fixed to the movable rod 3 via the first adjusting seat 2. Limiting rods 901 are evenly spaced and inserted into the upper end of the supporting base 9, with a waste liquid collection basin 12 engaged between the limiting rods 901. A solid-phase extraction column positioning plate 11 is placed above the waste liquid collection basin 12, and the solid-phase extraction column 8 is inserted into the solid-phase extraction column positioning plate 11. Positioning rings 203 are evenly spaced and engaged on the collar 202. Fasteners 204 forming an obtuse angle structure are fixed to the side of the positioning rings 203 by screws, and the fasteners 204 contact and engage with the capped bottles 10. When positioning the capped bottles 10, the caps of the bottles 10 can be facing downwards, allowing the bottles 10 to be inserted... Inside the positioning ring 203, the lower part of the capped bottle 10 is supported by fasteners 204. Fasteners 204 rotate as the capped bottle 10 moves downwards, allowing another fastener 204 to clamp the side of the bottle body, thus achieving stable positioning of the capped bottle 10. This system can accommodate capped bottles 10 of various sizes. The capped bottle 10 is a clean bottle, and the cap provides a seal. A rubber stopper 7 is securely inserted into the upper end of the solid-phase extraction column 8, and the injection needle 405 passes through the rubber stopper 7. A positioning plate 501 is welded to the side of the second adjusting seat 5, and the particulate filter 402 engages and passes through the positioning plate 501. This structure allows the positioning plate 501 to reliably position the particulate filter 402.A large volume of water sample is drawn from a capped bottle 10 through the infusion tubing 404 of a disposable infusion set 4, passing sequentially through a drip chamber 401, a particle filter 402, a flow regulator 403, and an injection needle 405 before entering the solid-phase extraction column 8. This achieves rapid solid-phase extraction while simultaneously filtering solid impurities through the particle filter 402 to prevent clogging. The flow rate is controllable by the flow regulator 403. The disposable infusion set 4 is an air-inlet type, using disposable equipment to avoid contamination. Connecting the bottles in series increases the water sample volume and improves detection efficiency. The waste liquid collection basin 12 collects the waste liquid after solid-phase extraction, and the limiting rod 901 prevents the waste liquid collection basin 12 from tipping over.

[0019] Working principle: When using this large-volume water sample automatic solid-phase extraction device, the large-volume water sample is first loaded into the capped bottle 10. The movable rod 3 rises relative to the positioning rod 6. The height of the movable rod 3 is adjusted, and then the positions of the first adjusting seat 2 and the second adjusting seat 5 relative to the movable rod 3 are adjusted to control the positions of the positioning frame 201 and the positioning plate 501. The fixed position of the solid-phase extraction device body 1 is adjusted by the universal wheel 902. The waste liquid collection basin 12 is positioned on the support base 9 by the limiting rod 901. The solid-phase extraction column positioning plate 11 is placed on the waste liquid collection basin 12. Then, the solid-phase extraction column 8 is inserted into the solid-phase extraction column positioning plate 11. Next, the capped bottle 10 is inverted and inserted into the positioning ring 203. After the lower part of the capped bottle 10 is pressed against one of the fasteners 204, the collar 202 is positioned relative to the capped bottle 10 as it moves down. Ring 203 rotates until another fastener 204 clamps onto the side of the capped bottle 10. Then, the disposable infusion set 4 is inserted into the cap of the capped bottle 10. The other end of the disposable infusion set 4 is inserted into the rubber stopper 7 through the injection needle 405, thus connecting the solid phase extraction column 8 with the capped bottle 10. The particle filter 402 is positioned on the positioning plate 501. Under atmospheric pressure and gravity, the large volume of water sample in the capped bottle 10 flows through the infusion tubing 404, through the drip chamber 401, the particle filter 402, the flow regulator 403, and the injection needle 405 into the solid phase extraction column 8. This achieves automatic loading and solid phase extraction of the large volume of water sample. The flow rate can be controlled by the flow regulator 403, and the particle filter 402 filters out particulate impurities to prevent the solid phase extraction column 8 from clogging. This process is low in manpower and material costs, thus completing a series of tasks.

[0020] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
