Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of reaction apparatus for synthesis, specifically a reaction apparatus for synthesizing silica gel chromatography column packing. Background Technology
[0002] A chromatographic column is an instrument used for the separation of compounds. Different packing materials are selected based on the different compounds to be separated in order to achieve good results. Among them, silica gel packing material is the most widely used in chromatography technology because it is superior to other packing materials in terms of efficiency, hardness and performance. The current method of producing silica gel packing material is generally to produce semi-finished silica gel particles in a tank with stable temperature and pressure, and then produce silica gel packing material that can be used in chromatographic columns through subsequent processes such as aging, acid soaking, water washing and drying.

A second discharge pipe is connected to the inside of the manual valve.
[0028] It should be noted that a certain amount of water can be injected into the inside of the tank 1 through the water inlet pipe 5 for cleaning.
[0029] Please see Figures 2 to 3 In this embodiment, the rotating mechanism 3 includes a motor 301 fixed to the upper surface of the tank 1 by a mounting bracket. A first transmission wheel 302 is fixed to the outer side of the output shaft of the motor 301. A rotating tube 303 is rotatably connected to the top wall of the inner cavity of the tank 1 through a sealed bearing. The top end of the rotating tube 303 rotates through the tank 1 and extends to the upper side. A second transmission wheel 304 is fixed to the outer side of the top end of the rotating tube 303.

[0030] Specifically, the rotating mechanism 3 also includes a fan 307 fixed to the right side of the tank 1 by a mounting plate. The air outlet of the fan 307 is fixed to a heating box 308 by a pipe. The upper surface of the heating box 308 is connected to a connecting pipe 309. The outer side of the left side of the connecting pipe 309 is connected to a solenoid valve 310. The inside of the solenoid valve 310 is connected to an input pipe 311.
[0031] Specifically, the bottom end of the input pipe 311 is rotatably connected to the top end of the rotating pipe 303 through a sealed bearing.

Two connecting rods 313 are fixed on both the left and right sides of the rotating pipe 303. A scraper 314 is fixed on the opposite side of the connecting rods 313 on both sides. Through the dual action of hot air and rotating pipe 303, the silica solution is heated evenly, improving the production quality of silica particles. The distribution of the air outlet 306 can further promote the uniform heating and stirring of the solution.
[0032] Specifically, the opposite sides of the scrapers 314 on both sides are in contact with the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the tank 1. A certain amount of silica solution can be added into the tank 1 through the feed pipe 6. At the same time, the blower 307, motor 301, solenoid valve 310 and heating box 308 are turned on. The air outlet of the blower 307 is vented, and after being heated by the heating box 308, it flows into the interior of the input pipe 311.

The bottom end of the air inlet pipe 403 is connected to the upper surface of the filter frame 401. A visualization glass plate 404 is fixed to the front of the filter frame 401. A chromatographic column is an instrument used for the separation of compounds. Different packing materials are selected according to different compounds to be separated in order to achieve good results. Among them, silica gel packing is the most widely used in chromatography technology because it is superior to other packing materials in terms of efficiency, hardness and performance. The production method of silica gel packing is generally to produce semi-finished silica gel particles in a tank with stable temperature and pressure.
[0036] It should be noted that the filter screen 402 can filter dust in the air entering the tank 1, thereby improving the flow of the inlet pipe 311, the connecting pipe 309 and the pipeline.
[0037] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0038] In use, a certain amount of silicate solution can be added into the tank 1 through the feed pipe 6. Simultaneously, the blower 307, motor 301, solenoid valve 310, and heating box 308 are turned on. Air is discharged from the outlet of the blower 307, heated by the heating box 308, and then flows into the input pipe 311. It is then sprayed out through at least two air outlets 306. When the motor 301 starts, it drives at least two stirring tubes 305 on the left and right sides to rotate, thus stirring the silicate solution inside the tank 1. Combined with the several air outlets 306 on the left and right sides, this stirs the silicate solution inside the tank 1. The internal silica solution is uniformly stirred and heated to produce silica gel particles. Impurities adhering to the inner wall of the tank 1 can be cleaned by the scrapers 314 on both sides. The produced silica gel particles can be discharged by opening the manual valve in the discharge structure 2. The rotating conveyor wheel 312 can transport the silica solution on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the tank 1 upward to improve the reaction effect and improve the production quality of silica gel particles. The filter screen 402 can filter the dust in the air entering the tank 1 and improve the flow of the input pipe 311, connecting pipe 309 and pipeline.
