Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of amino acid detection, and in particular to hydrolysis apparatus for amino acid detection. Background Technology
[0002] Amino acids are a class of organic compounds containing amino and carboxyl groups, and are the basic building blocks of proteins. Their general chemical formula is R-CH(NH2)-COOH, where R represents a side chain group that determines the type and properties of the amino acid. Amino acids not only participate in protein synthesis in living organisms, but also play important roles in metabolic regulation and the maintenance of physiological functions.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN219532652U, which discloses a hydrolysis device and sample processing system for amino acid detection. The device includes a main body and a branch body connected to the side of the main body. The branch body is connected to a vacuum pump. The opening end of the main body is provided with a main body sealing plug, and a nitrogen gas delivery pipe is provided on the main body sealing plug.
[0004] The hydrolysis device and sample processing system for amino acid detection in the aforementioned patent have the following shortcomings: The device uses a heating jacket to provide heat to the sample liquid containing the amino acid to be tested in the main body, so that the sample liquid is heated evenly, thereby improving the hydrolysis efficiency of the amino acid to be tested. However, since the device does not have a device to rotate and flow the main body and the sample liquid inside, it is difficult to heat the static sample liquid quickly and evenly, which will affect the hydrolysis efficiency to a certain extent. Therefore, the heating efficiency of the device during use can be further improved. Utility Model Content

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0031] This application discloses a hydrolysis apparatus for amino acid detection.
[0032] Reference Figure 1-3 A hydrolysis device for amino acid detection includes a base 1, a heating shell 3 rotatably mounted on the top of the base 1, a main body 4 disposed inside the heating shell 3, and the connection and snapping method between the main body 4 and the heating shell 3 in this application is the prior art in this field, so the specific structure and usage process are not described in detail. A branch pipe 5 is fixedly and through one side of the main body 4. Both the branch pipe 5 and the main body 4 are provided with corresponding extraction mechanisms and feeding mechanisms. The base 1 is provided with a rotation mechanism for rotating the main body 4 and reinforcement mechanisms disposed on both sides of the base 1.
[0033] The rotating mechanism includes a circular hole 14 on the top of the base 1, a circular plate 15 rotatably installed in the circular hole 14, a heating shell 3 fixedly installed on the circular plate 15, a first bevel gear 16 fixedly installed at one bottom end of the circular plate 15, a support column 17 fixedly installed at one bottom end of the first bevel gear 16, the support column 17 rotatably installed on the bottom inner wall of the circular hole 14, a second bevel gear 18 meshing with the bottom of the first bevel gear 16, a rotating column 19 fixedly installed at one end of the second bevel gear 18, a support frame 21 fixedly installed on one side of the base 1, and a drive motor 20 fixedly installed on the support frame 21. The output end of the drive motor 20 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating column 19. In this application, the drive is performed by the drive motor 20, and the driving method is not limited. Specifically, it can be driven by electric rotation, manual rotation, or other methods according to the usage requirements.
[0034] In use, by controlling the start of the drive motor 20, the output of the drive motor 20 will drive the rotating column 19 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating column 19 will drive the second bevel gear 18 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 18 will drive the first bevel gear 16 and the circular plate 15 to rotate, thereby enhancing the convection of the sample liquid and accelerating the heat transfer, so that the sample liquid is heated faster and the time required for heating the sample liquid is reduced. Therefore, the hydrolysis heating efficiency of this application can be further improved.
[0035] Reference Figure 1-3 The extraction mechanism includes a first sealing plug 7 disposed at one end of the branch pipe body 5. One end of the branch pipe body 5 passes through one side of the first sealing plug 7 and is fixedly installed with an extraction pipe 8 that is connected to an external vacuum device. The extraction pipe 8 is provided with a first valve 9 and a sealing plate 10 is provided at one end of the extraction pipe 8.
[0036] In use, the air in the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device is evacuated by connecting the vacuum extraction pipe 8 to the pipeline of the vacuum pump.
[0037] Reference Figure 3-5 The feeding mechanism includes a second sealing plug 11 installed on the main pipe body 4. A level gauge 6 is installed inside the main pipe body 4, with one end of the level gauge 6 exposed on the outside. A nitrogen gas guide pipe 12 is installed inside the main pipe body 4 to connect with an external nitrogen tank. A second valve 13 is installed on the exposed side of the nitrogen gas guide pipe 12. A heating sleeve 27 is installed inside the heating shell 3. A temperature sensor 28 is embedded in the heating sleeve 27. A storage battery 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the circular plate 15. The storage battery 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the circular plate 15 so that it can move with it, thus preventing the phenomenon of wire tangling. The heating sleeve 27 and the storage battery 2 are electrically connected.
[0038] In use, high-purity nitrogen is introduced into the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device through a nitrogen tank, so that the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device is filled with high-purity nitrogen; then the vacuum is evacuated and nitrogen is introduced, and this process is repeated three times. After the nitrogen is introduced, the first valve 9 and the second valve 13 are closed. This can more thoroughly replace oxygen with nitrogen and improve the hydrolysis heating efficiency of the amino acids to be tested.
[0039] Reference Figure 4 The reinforcement mechanism includes top plates 22 fixedly installed on both sides of the base 1, and corresponding adjusting rods 23 fixedly installed at the bottom of both top plates 22. Corresponding mounting seats 25 are fixedly installed at the bottom telescopic ends of both adjusting rods 23. Corresponding suction cups 26 are provided at the bottom of both mounting seats 25. Both adjusting rods 23 are composed of sleeves and sleeve rods, and are interlocked. Corresponding adjusting bolts 24 are screwed onto the outer surface of one side of both adjusting rods 23.
[0040] In use, by pulling the two adjusting rods 23, the base can be stretched and the two suction cups 26 can be moved downwards. The suction cups 26 can then adhere to the tabletop or the ground, thereby improving the stability of the base 1 and the overall stability of use. The position of the adjusting rods 23 and the suction cups 26 can be fixed by rotating the adjusting bolts 24.
[0041] The implementation principle of the hydrolysis device for amino acid detection in this application embodiment is as follows: In use, the sample solution containing the amino acid to be tested is added to the main body 4, and one end of the nitrogen gas delivery tube 12 is inserted into the sample solution. By closing the second valve 13 and opening the first valve 9, and connecting the vacuum extraction tube 8 to the pipeline of the vacuum pump, the air in the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device is evacuated. Then, the operation is reversed, and high-purity nitrogen is filled into the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device through the nitrogen tank, so that the inner cavity of the hydrolysis device is filled with high-purity nitrogen. Then, the vacuum is evacuated and nitrogen is filled again. After repeating this process three times, the first valve 9 and the second valve 13 are closed while the device is filled with nitrogen.
[0042] At this point, the pipes connected to the extraction pipe 8 and the nitrogen gas delivery pipe 12 can be disassembled to prevent motion interference. The corresponding first valve 9 and second valve 13 can ensure sealing. By controlling the start of the drive motor 20 and the heating jacket 27, the output end of the drive motor 20 will drive the rotating column 19 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating column 19 will drive the second bevel gear 18 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 18 will drive the first bevel gear 16 and the circular plate 15 to rotate. This will drive the heating shell 3 and the main pipe body 4 that is engaged with the heating shell 3 to rotate. This will allow the sample liquid in the main pipe body 4 to rotate and flow, thereby enhancing the convection of the sample liquid and accelerating the heat transfer, so that the sample liquid is heated faster and the time required for heating the sample liquid is reduced. Therefore, the hydrolysis heating efficiency of this application can be further improved.
[0043] By pulling the two adjusting rods 23, the base 1 can be stretched, which can also move the two suction cups 26 downwards and make them adhere to the tabletop and the ground. This can improve the stability of the base 1 and thus improve the overall stability of use. By rotating the adjusting bolt 24, the positions of the adjusting rods 23 and the suction cups 26 can be fixed.
[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
