Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of analytical instrument auxiliary technology, and in particular to a structure for cleaning residual liquid at the injection port of a liquid chromatograph. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of modern analytical testing, liquid chromatography (LC) is a key instrument for efficient separation and quantitative analysis. It has been widely used in many important fields such as pharmaceutical research and development, food safety testing, environmental monitoring, and quality control of chemical products. Its core function is to utilize the difference in the distribution coefficients of each component in a mixture between the stationary phase and the mobile phase, and to achieve efficient separation of each component through the elution effect of the mobile phase. Combined with the corresponding detector, it completes qualitative and quantitative analysis.
[0003] During the use of liquid chromatographs, the injection port is a key component for sample entry into the instrument. If the residual liquid in the port is not cleaned in time, it can easily lead to cross-contamination of samples, affecting the accuracy and repeatability of test results. At the same time, long-term accumulation of residual liquid may also corrode the injection port components and shorten the service life of the instrument. Traditional cleaning methods mostly rely on manual wiping or simple rinsing, which are not only inefficient and have poor cleaning effects, but also fail to meet the cleanliness requirements of high-precision experimental analysis.

[0012] This invention provides a residual liquid cleaning structure for the injection port of a liquid chromatograph, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0013] 1. This design discloses a residual liquid cleaning structure for the injection port of a liquid chromatograph. The invention utilizes a water pump to deliver cleaning solution from the water tank to the scraper, which then sprays the solution through multiple high-pressure nozzles. This powerfully flushes the residual liquid in the relevant area of the injection port. Simultaneously, the scraper, guided by a slide rail and slider, achieves stable sliding, thoroughly scraping away residual liquid from the filter plate and surrounding area.

[0014] 2. This design provides a residual liquid cleaning structure for the injection port of a liquid chromatograph. By setting a suction box on the base plate and combining it with a fan, a first suction tube, a second suction tube, and a collection box, it achieves the collection and treatment of impurities. The suction provided by the fan can draw impurities from inside the collection box through the second suction tube, and at the same time, it draws impurities from the collection box into the suction box through the second suction tube. This not only improves the automation of impurity cleaning and reduces the trouble of manual operation, but also effectively improves the overall impurity treatment efficiency and cleanliness maintenance capability of the equipment.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for cleaning residual liquid at the injection port of a liquid chromatograph: it includes a base plate 1, a filter box 7, and a housing 2. A filter plate 17 is connected inside the filter box 7. Two slide rails 18 are connected to the filter box 7, and a slider 16 is slidably connected to each slide rail 18. A scraper 19 is connected to the outer wall of the two sliders 16. Multiple high-pressure nozzles 21 are connected to the scraper 19. A collection box 20 is connected to the two sliders 16. A water tank 3 is connected to the base plate 1, and a water pump 15 is connected to the water tank 3. A water pipe 6 is connected to the output end of the water pump 15. The end of the water pipe 6 away from the water pump 15 passes through the housing 2 and is connected to the scraper 19. Water in the water tank 3 is transported to the scraper 19 through the water pipe 6 under the action of the water pump 15, and then sprayed out through multiple high-pressure nozzles 21 on the scraper 19 to rinse the filter plate 17 in the filter box 7. At the same time, the slider 16 slides along the slide rail 18, driving the scraper 19 to move synchronously. While the high-pressure water is rinsing, the surface of the filter plate 17 is scraped and cleaned. The impurities generated during cleaning are collected with the water flow into the collection box 20 connected to the slider 16, thus achieving efficient cleaning of the filter plate 17.
[0022] A suction box 12 is connected to the base plate 1. A fan 13 is connected to the outer wall of the suction box 12. A second suction pipe 14 is connected to the outer wall of the suction box 12. The end of the second suction pipe 14 away from the suction box 12 passes through the box body 2 and is connected to the collection box 20. A first suction pipe 11 is connected to the outer wall of the suction box 12. The end of the first suction pipe 11 away from the suction box 12 is connected to the collection box 5. The bottom surface of the collection box 5 is connected to the base plate 1. When the device is started, the fan 13 connected to the outer wall of the suction box 12 starts to run. During the operation of the fan 13, a negative pressure environment is formed inside the suction box 12. Since the suction box 12 is connected to the collection box 20 through the first suction pipe 11, under the action of negative pressure, the impurities in the collection box 20 will be sucked into the second suction pipe 14 and transported to the suction box 12 along the second suction pipe 14. The impurities entering the suction box 12 will then be pushed by the airflow generated by the fan 13 through the first suction pipe 11 connected to the outer wall of the suction box 12. Finally, the impurities will enter the collection box 5 along the first suction pipe 11, completing the entire impurity collection process and realizing the orderly collection and treatment of impurities.
[0023] The base plate 1 is connected to a liquid storage tank 9, and a pump body 10 is connected to the liquid storage tank 9. The output end of the pump body 10 is connected to a connecting pipe 8. The end of the connecting pipe 8 away from the pump body 10 is connected to the filter box 7. The liquid storage tank 9 on the base plate 1 is used to store liquid. When the equipment is working, the liquid in the liquid storage tank 9 is drawn out by the pump body 10, and after being pressurized by the pump body 10, it is transported to the filter box 7 through the connecting pipe 8, thus completing the process of liquid flow from storage to transportation to the filtration stage. The upper surface of the box 2 is connected to the bottom surface of the filter box 7. The base plate 1 is connected to a control cabinet 4.
[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The control cabinet 4 controls the operation of each component. The liquid in the storage tank 9 is transported to the filter box 7 through the pump body 10 and the connecting pipe 8. The liquid is filtered by the filter plate 17 in the filter box 7. At the same time, the water pump 15 transports the water in the water tank 3 to the scraper 19 through the water pipe 6. The scraper 19 is sprayed out through multiple high-pressure nozzles 21. The slider 16 slides along the slide rail 18 to drive the scraper 19 to move and wash the filter plate 17. The impurities generated during washing are scraped into the collection box 20. Then, the fan 13 is started and sucks the impurities in the collection box 20 into the suction box 12 through the second suction pipe 14. At the same time, the first suction pipe 11 can suck the impurities in the collection box 5 into the suction box 12 for centralized processing. The filtered liquid flows down through the connecting structure between the box body 2 and the filter box 7, completing the entire filtration, cleaning and impurity treatment.
[0025] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
