Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid chromatography technology, specifically to a liquid chromatograph with efficient heat dissipation function. Background Technology
[0002] High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), as one of the core instruments in modern analytical chemistry, is widely used in fields such as pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, and food safety. Its core component, the chromatographic column, is typically equipped with a column oven to precisely control the temperature during the separation process, thereby improving analytical reproducibility and separation efficiency. However, when the column oven operates at high temperatures (especially the 40-80℃ conditions commonly seen in reversed-phase chromatography), the internal heating element or Peltier temperature control system generates a significant amount of heat. Insufficient heat dissipation can lead to temperature fluctuations, decreased instrument performance, and even component damage.
[0003] Currently, conventional liquid chromatographs mostly adopt passive heat dissipation designs (such as ventilation holes in the casing) or simple active heat dissipation solutions (such as small axial flow fans).
[0004] However, this approach has significant drawbacks: 1. Low heat dissipation efficiency: Natural convection or low-speed fans are insufficient to meet the heat dissipation requirements under high-temperature conditions, especially when operating at high ambient temperatures or for extended periods of continuous operation, where the heat dissipation bottleneck becomes more prominent. 2. Poor environmental adaptability: Dust in the air can easily enter the instrument through the heat dissipation holes, and its accumulation can affect the stability of the circuit or contaminate the flow path system.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a liquid chromatograph with efficient heat dissipation function. Utility Model Content
[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a liquid chromatograph with efficient heat dissipation, which facilitates improved heat dissipation efficiency and can filter impurities in the air, effectively solving the problems in the prior art.
[0007] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a liquid chromatograph with high-efficiency heat dissipation function, comprising a liquid chromatograph, wherein exhaust vents are provided on both sides of the liquid chromatograph, and an air inlet heat dissipation structure is fixedly installed on the back of the liquid chromatograph. The air inlet heat dissipation structure includes a cooling box, a cooling fan, an exhaust port, a drying structure, a first rectangular frame, a filter screen, and a cooling structure. The cooling structure is installed inside the cooling box and includes an inlet valve, an outlet valve, a coil, and fins. The cooling fan is installed on one end of the outer surface of the cooling box. The exhaust port is located on one side of the outer surface of the cooling box away from the cooling fan. The drying structure is fixed in the exhaust port and includes a second rectangular frame, a protective net, and a desiccant. The outer wall of the fins has honeycomb ventilation holes.
[0008] Preferably, the first rectangular frame is fixed at one end of the liquid chromatograph located on the cooling fan, and the filter screen is fixed to the inner wall of the first rectangular frame.

[0011] Preferably, the inlet valve and the outlet valve are fixed at both ends of the coil, and the fins are fixed to the outer wall of the coil.

[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a liquid chromatograph with efficient heat dissipation function, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. This liquid chromatograph with high-efficiency heat dissipation function uses liquid cooling (coil with fins) and air cooling (cooling fan) to dissipate heat in a coordinated manner. It utilizes the circulation of coolant to quickly absorb heat, while the fins increase the heat exchange area and the honeycomb air passage optimizes the airflow path, which significantly reduces the temperature of the air entering the chromatograph and solves the problem of insufficient heat dissipation efficiency of traditional single air cooling.
[0014] 2. This liquid chromatograph with efficient heat dissipation function filters impurities in the air entering the liquid chromatograph through a filter screen, and dehumidifies the air through the filter screen, making it particularly suitable for high humidity environments.
