Technical Field

The invention relates to a modular ion mobility spectrometer.

Background

The main forms of the existing ion mobility spectrometers (or detectors) include three types, namely, portable types, desktop types and portable desktop types. For example, FIG. 1A shows a portable ion mobility spectrometer model TR1000DB-A from Toveryvale, FIG. 1B shows a desktop ion mobility spectrometer model TR2000 from Toveryvale, and FIG. 1C shows a handheld desktop ion mobility spectrometer model ION CAN600 from Smiths detection.

In existing solutions, the core device of an ion mobility spectrometer (i.e., the ion mobility tube) is not optimally performing due to the limitations of either the hand-held or desktop configurations. In addition, the defects of inconvenient maintenance/repair and function expansion, single task form, poor bearing capacity of high detection frequency and the like exist.

The main reason for the above-mentioned disadvantages is that conventional hand-held, bench-top or possibly hand-held bench-top ion mobility spectrometers arrange the ion mobility tube inside the ion mobility spectrometer. As a result, the design of the size of the ion mobility tube and its own configuration is limited due to the external shape and size of the ion mobility spectrometer. In addition, the high voltage and high temperature of the ion mobility tube can adversely affect peripheral components (e.g., displays, batteries, etc.) that can adversely affect the placement of the ion mobility tube within the ion mobility spectrometer.

In addition, the conventional ion mobility spectrometer has a problem of slow cleaning speed when dealing with high-frequency sampling detection, and although the problem can be solved by increasing the number of ion mobility tubes to alternatively work, the number of non-core devices such as a display, a printer, a power supply and the like can be correspondingly increased while the number of the ion mobility tubes is increased, thereby increasing the cost of a user.

The conventional portable ion mobility spectrometer has a limited function expansion and cannot easily cope with flexible tasks such as light weight when it is used, which is in conflict with the object of requiring multiple batteries and desiccants for durability enhancement. In addition, conventional forms of ion mobility spectrometers do not combine the advantages of both hand-held and bench-top (including hand-held bench-top) versions.

[ technical effects ] of

By adopting the technical scheme, the invention eliminates the limitation of the form of the ion mobility spectrometer on the size and the layout of the ion mobility tube, and improves the detection performance of the core machine.

On the premise of not increasing the weight of the main body, the detection performance of the portable ion mobility spectrometer is improved, the durability is enhanced, and the replacement period of the drying agent is longer.

The high detection frequency carrying capacity of the ion mobility spectrometer is enhanced without increasing the cost of non-core devices (e.g., displays, batteries, printers, etc.).

By means of the separated layout of the ion migration tube, the working temperature of the non-core device is reduced, and therefore the failure rate is reduced. Meanwhile, the core device is convenient to repair or replace quickly, and the convenience of maintenance/repair is enhanced.

For manufacturers of ion mobility spectrometers, the costly and complex design and manufacturing process of the device is the ion mobility tube. In the invention, the ion migration control is made into sub-modules separated relative to the non-core device, so that a plurality of end products with different configurations can be derived. Thus, the related operations become simple from design and manufacture to actual use to after-sales maintenance.

It is possible for the user to achieve increased flexibility (e.g., one-machine-multiple-use) at a minimum cost or to cope with the need for high detection frequency at a lower cost than in the conventional case.

It should be understood that the drawings are merely schematic and that the dimensions and proportions of elements in the drawings are not necessarily precise.

Detailed Description

FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of the principles of an ion mobility spectrometer according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

In the present invention, the core machine is the core device of the ion mobility spectrometer and is a separate module from other non-core devices of the ion mobility spectrometer (e.g., display, battery, printer, etc.).

As shown in fig. 2, the core machine may be combined with a variety of different task docking stations. These task docking stations include, for example, portable and desktop docking stations, which may also be customized to the needs of the user. For example, when the core engine is combined with a portable docking station, it may be combined to form a portable ion mobility spectrometer. When the core engine is combined with a desktop docking station, it may be combined to form a desktop ion mobility spectrometer.

Specifically, the core mainly comprises an ion migration tube, a migration gas treatment system and a sample injector, and also comprises a battery, a display, an operation button, a shell and the like. The capacity of the battery, the size of the display, the amount of desiccant, etc. in the core machine may be smaller/less than the corresponding features in a conventional ion mobility spectrometer, and the display may even be eliminated. That is, a separately usable ion mobility spectrometer with detection capability, which is intended to be formed in a manner as light in weight and as small in size as possible, has a core performance (i.e., detection capability) that is stronger than that of a conventional portable ion mobility spectrometer.

Accordingly, the portable docking station may include a separate battery pack, a wirelessly or wired connected wrist display, a detection performance recovery base, a wireless printer, a gas sampling device, etc., wherein the detection performance recovery base enables a core engine connected thereto to recover to optimal detection performance at a faster rate than a conventional form of portable ion mobility spectrometer in a manner of providing a large flow of clean air.

The desktop docking station may include a built-in larger capacity battery, a larger size display, a mobile air circulation handling system, a wired or wireless printer, etc. The migration gas circulation processing system is similar to the detection performance recovery base mentioned above, and a drying agent circulation regeneration system is arranged in the migration gas circulation processing system, so that the replacement period of the drying agent can be obviously prolonged.

In addition, a docking station may be combined with one or more cores. Electrical signal transfer, power transfer, airflow transfer, etc. may be performed between the docking station and the core machine. For example, a user may purchase only one core, one portable docking station, and one desktop docking station to simultaneously implement the functions of a hand-held ion mobility spectrometer and a desktop ion mobility spectrometer. In the conventional ion mobility spectrometer, the portable ion mobility spectrometer and the desktop ion mobility spectrometer respectively include their own core machines and peripheral devices, so that the cost is high and the flexibility is low. In contrast, the modular ion mobility spectrometer according to the present invention can improve the detection performance, durability and flexibility of the ion mobility spectrometer, while reducing the cost.

For example, when one or more core machines are used with a desktop docking station, the core machine passes status information, detection process and result information of the body to the desktop docking station. The desktop docking station displays the visual information desired by the user on the larger display based on this information. It is to be understood that each of the plurality of core machines may be distinguished.

In addition, the user can input control information or change information on the wrist display or the desktop display interface, control the core machine through the desktop docking station, for example, modify the core machine operating parameters to adapt to different tasks, add contraband in the database, alternate the two core machines, and quickly restore the performance status of the core machine through peripheral components in the docking station (mainly, higher power supply of the desktop docking station is used to realize temperature control, and larger desiccant reserve is used to supply more clean airflow), so that the ion mobility spectrometer can be restored from the high-load status more quickly to meet the requirement of high detection frequency.

The technical objects, technical solutions and technical effects of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the above-described embodiments are exemplary only, and not limiting. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement and the like made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principle of the present invention are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
