Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid phase extraction technology, specifically to a solid phase extraction device. Background Technology
[0002] Solid phase extraction is a commonly used sample pretreatment technique, widely applied in fields such as environmental monitoring, food testing, and pharmaceutical analysis. As one of the core devices of this technique, the ease of use and processing efficiency of the manual solid phase extraction device directly affect the accuracy of experimental results and the experimental process. Currently, traditional manual solid-phase extraction devices have the following shortcomings. First, waste liquid collection is inconvenient, usually requiring an additional waste liquid container to collect the waste liquid generated during the extraction process. This not only increases the number of experimental steps but also makes it easy for waste liquid to leak due to improper placement of the waste liquid container, polluting the experimental environment. Second, the shell volume is small, and the gap design between the two rows of extraction columns is unreasonable, with too small a spacing. When multiple samples need to be processed simultaneously, operators are prone to collisions during the installation, disassembly of extraction columns, and sample addition, making operation inconvenient and seriously affecting the efficiency of processing multiple samples simultaneously. Furthermore, there is a lack of independent flow rate control components. A uniform flow control method is usually used, which cannot accurately control the flow rate according to the actual situation of the samples in different extraction columns, resulting in poor extraction effect for some samples and affecting the accuracy of experimental data. Therefore, a solid-phase extraction device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0015] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.
[0016] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: A solid-phase extraction device includes a base 1, a vacuum chamber 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, an extraction mechanism 3 installed on the top of the vacuum chamber 2, a test tube support frame 4 installed inside the vacuum chamber 2, an adjustable air pump 5 installed on the outside of the vacuum chamber 2, and a draining mechanism 6 installed at the bottom of the vacuum chamber 2. The extraction mechanism 3 includes a sealing cover 31, a guide tube 32 is snapped onto the top of the sealing cover 31, a flow regulating valve 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide tube 32, and an extraction tube 34 is snapped onto the top of the flow regulating valve 33. The draining mechanism 6 includes a liquid storage tank 61, a drain regulating pipe 62 fixedly connected to the outside of the vacuum chamber 2, and a liquid guide pipe 63 fixedly connected to the outside of the drain regulating pipe 62.
[0017] It should be noted that: the sealing cover 31 is installed on the top of the vacuum chamber 2, the guide tubes 32 are evenly distributed inside the sealing cover 31, the horizontal gap between the two rows of guide tubes 32 is set to 6-10cm, the test tube support frame 4 is divided into upper and lower layers, and the two are connected by a column.
[0018] Furthermore: the bottom of the guide tube 32 is located inside the vacuum chamber 2, the test tube support frame 4 has a snap-fit groove inside, the bottom of the guide tube 32 is located directly above the snap-fit groove inside the test tube support frame 4, the extraction end of the adjustable air pump 5 is fixedly connected to the inside of the vacuum chamber 2, and a pressure gauge is provided on the outside of the extraction end. The adjustable air pump 5 has a liquid collection bottle inside, and the liquid collection bottle is connected to the adjustable air pump 5 through a filter tube.
[0019] Specifically: the liquid storage tank 61 is located in the inner bottom wall of the vacuum chamber 2, and the edge of the liquid storage tank 61 is in a sloping state. The liquid inlet end of the drain regulating pipe 62 is fixedly connected to the inside of the liquid storage tank 61. The liquid guide pipe 63 is made of a telescopic flexible hose. The volume of the vacuum chamber 2 is 30%-50% larger than that of the shell of the traditional manual solid phase extraction device to meet the needs of processing multiple samples at the same time.
[0020] As a further implementation of this scheme, after all samples have flowed through the extraction tube 34, the target component has been adsorbed onto the adsorbent. At this point, a rinsing operation is required to remove impurities adsorbed on the packing surface. The adjustable air pump 5 is turned off, the negative pressure supply is paused, and rinsing reagent is added from the top of the extraction tube 34. The air pump is restarted, and the negative pressure is adjusted to 0.02 MPa. The flow regulating valve 33 is slowly opened to control the rinsing reagent flow rate at 1-2 mL / min. The rinsing reagent flows from top to bottom through the adsorbent packing, interacting with the impurities on the packing surface and eluting them off. The target component, due to its stronger binding force with the adsorbent, remains in the packing. The waste liquid containing impurities generated during rinsing enters the storage tank 61 through the guide tube 32, merging with the previous sample impurity waste liquid. This process must ensure that the rinsing reagent completely flows through the entire packing layer to avoid impurity residue affecting the purity of the target component in subsequent applications.
[0021] Workflow: Before performing solid-phase extraction, the basic assembly and status check of the device must be completed: Place the base 1 stably on the experimental table. The vacuum chamber 2 fixed on top of it provides a closed negative pressure environment for the entire extraction process. It is necessary to ensure that there is no air leakage at the connection between the vacuum chamber 2 and the base 1. The test tube support frame 4 inside the vacuum chamber 2 is fixed by the column. The upper and lower locking slots must be kept horizontally aligned, and each locking slot is located directly below the guide tube 32 of the upper sealing cover 31 to ensure accurate subsequent liquid dripping. The extraction end of the adjustable air pump 5 has been connected to the vacuum chamber 2. It is necessary to check the sealing of the air pump and the air chamber connection pipe, and at the same time confirm that the liquid collection bottle inside the air pump is empty and the filter tube is not blocked. The liquid storage tank 61 in the draining mechanism 6 is in a dry and clean state. The valve on the drain regulating pipe 62 is closed, and the end of the guide tube 63 is aligned with the external waste liquid collection container. The assembly of the extraction mechanism 3 must be carried out in a specific order: First, the sealing cover 31 is tightly fastened to the top of the vacuum chamber 2, and the chamber is sealed by the sealing ring; then, the guide tube 32 is vertically inserted from the snap-fit hole at the top of the sealing cover 31 until the bottom of the guide tube 32 extends into the vacuum chamber 2 and is about 2-3 cm away from the upper snap-fit groove of the test tube support frame 4; then, the flow regulating valve 33 is fixed at the top of each guide tube 32 and the valve is adjusted to the fully closed state; finally, the extraction tube 34 containing the adsorbent packing is snapped onto the top of the flow regulating valve 33 to ensure that the extraction tube 34 is tightly connected to the valve and there is no risk of liquid leakage. Depending on the properties of the sample to be processed, such as water quality, food extract, or pharmaceutical solution, pretreatment is performed in advance, including filtration to remove suspended solids and pH adjustment. The pretreated sample is then aliquoted into clean containers for later use. Simultaneously, the extraction tube 34 is activated: the adjustable air pump 5 is turned on, and the pressure inside the vacuum chamber 2 is adjusted to a negative pressure of 0.02-0.03 MPa using a pressure gauge. Activating reagents, such as methanol or acetonitrile, are slowly added from the top of the extraction tube 34. The corresponding flow control valve 33 is slowly opened, controlling the reagent flow rate to 1-2 mL / min. Under negative pressure, the reagent flows from top to bottom through the adsorbent packing material inside the extraction tube 34, fully wetting the packing pores and removing air from the packing material, preparing for subsequent sample adsorption. The waste liquid generated during the activation process drips through the guide tube 32 into the receiving test tube in the upper slot of the test tube support frame 4. If the activation waste liquid needs to be collected separately, it can drip directly into the bottom storage tank 61 of the vacuum chamber 2. If the activation waste liquid can be combined with the subsequent extraction waste liquid, it is necessary to choose whether to place a receiving container on the test tube support frame 4 according to the experimental requirements.
[0022] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
