Detailed Implementation
[0023] Example 1
[0024] like Figures 1-7 As shown in the figure, the purification device proposed in this embodiment includes multiple filter boxes 2, multiple filtration mechanisms, multiple limiting mechanisms, and multiple transmission components.
[0025] Multiple filter boxes 2 are arranged side by side, and the two adjacent filter boxes 2 are interconnected. A partition 3 is provided on the inner side of the filter box 2. The interior of the filter box 2 is divided into a buffer chamber 2001 and a filter chamber 2002 by the partition 3. The buffer chamber 2001 is located above the filter chamber 2002. A connecting pipe 15 is provided on the partition 3. A sealing plate 17 for sealing the connecting pipe 15 is rotatably installed at the bottom end of the partition 3. A drain pipe 19 is connected to the bottom filter box 2.
[0026] The filtration mechanism includes a rectangular frame 4 and a filter screen 6 installed inside the rectangular frame 4. The outer surface of the rectangular frame 4 is provided with sealing rubber. One end of the rectangular frame 4 is provided with an inclined surface 4001. Two slots 401 are opened on the end of the rectangular frame 4 away from the inclined surface 4001. Both ends of the filter box 2 are provided with through holes 201 for the rectangular frame 4 to pass through.
[0027] Multiple limiting mechanisms are installed on multiple filter boxes 2. The limiting mechanism includes a connecting rod 11, two sliding plates 10, two first inserts 91 and two second inserts 92. Both ends of the filter box 2 are provided with sliding grooves 202. The ends of the two sliding plates 10 are slidably installed in the sliding grooves 202 on both sides. The two sliding plates 10 are connected by the connecting rod 11. The two first inserts 91 are respectively connected to the inner ends of the two sliding plates 10, and the two second inserts 92 are respectively connected to the outer ends of the two sliding plates 10. The bottom end of the first insert 91 can be movably inserted through to the inside of the perforation 201.
[0028] Multiple transmission components are installed on multiple filter boxes 2 respectively. The transmission components are used to convert the movement of the connecting rod 11 into the rotational movement of the sealing plate 17.
[0029] An outer frame 5 is provided at one end of the filter box 2 near the limiting mechanism. The outer frame 5 is provided to assist in the positioning of the filter mechanism, so that the filter mechanism can be easily aligned with the perforation 201.
[0030] A support plate 8 is provided at the end of the filter box 2 away from the limiting mechanism. The support plate 8 can support the old filter mechanism that can be removed.
[0031] Specifically, the technical solution also includes a centrifuge 1, through which exosomes are centrifuged and then flow into the interiors of multiple filter boxes 2 for further purification.
[0032] First, the exosomes flow into the buffer chamber 2001, and then into the filter chamber 2002 through the connecting pipe 15. The exosomes are filtered and purified by the filter screen 6. Subsequently, the exosomes flow into the interiors of multiple filter boxes 2 for further purification.
[0033] When filter 6 needs to be replaced, the new filter mechanism is aligned and inserted into the filter box 2. During insertion, the inclined surface 4001 at the end of the rectangular frame 4 first contacts the second insertion post 92. As the rectangular frame 4 continues to move, the second insertion post 92 continues to rise. The second insertion post 92 then drives the first insertion post 91 to move via the sliding plate 10. When the second insertion post 92 contacts the upper plane of the rectangular frame 4, it rises to the predetermined position. At this time, the first insertion post 91 moves out of the slot 401 of the old rectangular frame 4, thereby releasing the fixing of the old rectangular frame 4. With the cooperation of the transmission component, when the connecting rod 11 rises, the sealing plate 17 rotates and closes, realizing the... The connecting pipe 15 is sealed, and the exosomes no longer flow into the filter chamber 2002. After that, it is necessary to observe whether the liquid on the filter screen 6 is filtered clean. If all the liquid on the filter screen 6 is filtered, the new filter mechanism is pushed to continue moving. At this time, since the old filter mechanism is released from its limit, the new filter mechanism can move the old filter mechanism out of the filter box 2. When the slot 401 on the new filter mechanism is aligned with the first insertion post 91, the first insertion post 91 is inserted into the inside of the slot 401 under the action of gravity, which realizes the limit of the new filter mechanism. At this time, the connecting rod 11 moves downward and the sealing plate 17 is also rotated open, so that the connecting pipe 15 is in the open state, and the normal filtration work is restored.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment of the purification device, compared to Embodiment 1, a rotating rod 171 is connected to the sealing plate 17, and a rotating frame 16 is provided at the lower end of the partition plate 3. The rotating rod 171 is rotatably mounted on the rotating frame 16. The transmission assembly includes a horizontal rod 12, a vertical rod 13, a wedge block 14, and a connecting rod 18. The vertical rod 13 is connected to the connecting rod 11, and the wedge block 14 is connected to the end of the vertical rod 13. The horizontal rod 12 movably passes through the inner and outer sides of the filter box 2, and a movable hole 121 is opened at the outer end of the horizontal rod 12. The two ends of the connecting rod 18 are rotatably connected to the rotating rod 171 and the horizontal rod 12, respectively. When the connecting rod 11 moves upward, it drives the wedge block 14 to move. The wedge block 14 moves inside the movable hole 121, and the inclined surface of the wedge block 14 contacts one end of the inner side of the movable hole 121. As the wedge block 14 continues to move, it drives the crossbar 12 to move outward. With the cooperation of the connecting rod 18, the sealing plate 17 is driven. When the wedge block 14 rises to the limit position, the sealing plate 17 seals the connecting pipe 15. It should be added that in order to improve the sealing between the connecting pipe 15 and the sealing plate 17, a sealing strip is installed on the bottom edge of the connecting pipe 15.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the purification device proposed in this embodiment, compared with the first embodiment, has a diversion mechanism 7 installed on the inner side of each of the multiple filter boxes 2. The diversion mechanism 7 is located directly below the corresponding connecting pipe 15. The diversion mechanism 7 includes two sets of guide plate assemblies. One set of guide plate assemblies is obtained by rotating the other set of guide plate assemblies by 90 degrees. The two sets of guide plate assemblies are integrally formed. The guide plate assembly includes multiple guide plates, which are distributed in a fan-shaped skeleton shape. Through the above-mentioned diversion mechanism 7, not only can the impact force of the liquid on the filter screen 6 be reduced, but the liquid can also be diverted, so that the liquid can flow evenly to various positions of the filter screen 6, thereby achieving a uniform filtration effect.
[0038] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
