Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrophoresis technology, specifically to an electrophoresis solution cooling device. Background Technology
[0002] During electrophoresis, when an external DC power source is applied, charged particles such as colloidal microparticles will move directionally towards the cathode or anode within the dispersion medium. For example, biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids will acquire a positive or negative charge under specific pH conditions and migrate towards the opposite electrode under the influence of an electric field. Based on different separation principles and operating methods, electrophoresis can be classified into zone electrophoresis, boundary-shifting electrophoresis, isovelocity electrophoresis, and focusing electrophoresis, among which zone electrophoresis is the most widely used. This technique is widely applied in chemical analysis, biochemical research, and medical testing, playing a crucial role, especially in the separation and experimental research of biological materials, such as the separation and identification of cells, proteins, and nucleic acids.
[0003] In the cooling process of electrophoresis solutions, water cooling is a commonly used method. Its basic principle is to use condensate circulating in a specific device to absorb the heat dissipated by the electrophoresis solution, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling. However, this traditional water cooling method has obvious drawbacks in practical applications. When condensate continuously circulates in the cooling tank, due to the presence of calcium and magnesium ions in the water, these ions will gradually precipitate and adhere to the inner wall of the cooling tank under the influence of factors such as temperature and pressure, forming scale. The continuous accumulation of scale will significantly reduce the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling tank, hinder the heat exchange between the condensate and the electrophoresis solution, and thus greatly reduce the cooling effect, affecting the stability of the electrophoresis process and product quality. Currently, most cooling tanks adopt a sealed design, which makes scale cleaning inconvenient.
[0004] Therefore, an electrophoresis solution cooling device is proposed. Utility Model Content

A sealing seat is fixedly installed at the upper end of both the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this electrophoresis solution cooling device,
[0017] (1) The coolant is driven by a water pump to circulate between the condensate tank, the cooling machine, and the cooling tank of the lower cooling seat, forming a cooling circulation system. This circulation can remove the heat generated at the bottom of the electrophoresis chamber in time, so that the electrophoresis solution is always in a suitable temperature range, ensuring the stability and consistency of the electrophoresis process, and avoiding adverse effects on the electrophoresis effect due to temperature fluctuations. The electric hydraulic rod works to push the upper cooling seat upward, so that the cooling tank between the lower cooling seat and the upper cooling seat is exposed, which makes it convenient to clean the scale in the cooling tank and keep the cooling system unobstructed.

During the operation of the electrophoresis chamber, whether it is subjected to external force impact in the horizontal direction or the horizontal displacement trend caused by internal solution flow, equipment vibration, etc., the limiting frame can constrain the electrophoresis chamber from multiple angles, effectively preventing it from shaking in the horizontal direction, ensuring that the electrophoresis chamber always maintains a stable operating posture, and providing a reliable physical environment for the electrophoresis process.
