A liquid mixing device that decreases a concentration non-uniformity in the flow direction of a mobile phase and a liquid chromatograph that uses the liquid mixing device are provided. The liquid mixing device is configured to include a flow channel unit that is made from an introduction channel, a branch portion that is positioned in a downstream of the introduction channel, multiple branched flow channels that branch from the branch portion, a junction portion in which the multiple branched flow channels join together, and a discharge channel of the downstream of the junction portion. The multiple branched flow channels are different in terms of any one of, or several of width, depth, and length that are associated with an external shape, and a structure filling the inside of the flow channel and thus the times for the liquid to pass through the branched flow channels are different from each other.

Provided is a liquid chromatograph of a gradient type capable of promoting the mixture of a plurality of solvents without increasing flow passage volume. To this end, the liquid chromatograph includes: a Pump configured to suck a plurality of solvents and feed the solvents to a sample injection device, a separation column that separates a sample to be analyzed into components; and a detector that detects a component of the sample fed from the separation column. The Pump is configured to suck the plurality of solvents through an intake port and feed the solvents to a sample injection device through a discharge port and mix the plurality of solvents at between the intake port and the discharge port. The Pump further includes a cylinder and a plunger that reciprocates inside the cylinder, and the cylinder has an inner wall provided with a recess to generate a whirl in the plurality of solvents.

A pump controller causes a first plunger pump and a second plunger pump connected in series or in parallel to perform intake and compression actions alternately at substantially constant cycles, sets a pressurizing chamber of one of the plunger pumps to a state of a higher pressure than the pressurizing chamber of the other plunger pump, and performs flow rate control by adjusting lift amounts of the first plunger and the second plunger. Thus, it is possible to provide a pump for liquid chromatograph, and a liquid chromatograph, which are capable of reducing pulsations even when an ejection flow rate is changed.

It is possible to correctly determine whether a change in the pressure or flow rate is caused by normal opening and closing operations of a check valve and to monitor in real time whether an operation of a check valve is normal or abnormal in a liquid supply device. Light is introduced in the check valve and a change in the quantity of light transmitted through or reflected by the check valve, caused by the opening and closing of the valve is detected, so that the opening and closing operations of the check valve can be directly detected. The check valve is arranged in a pipe in the liquid supply device, and a change in the pressure in the pipe is monitored on the basis of a signal from a pressure sensor and a signal which represents the opening and closing of the check valve.

In a liquid chromatograph and a pump unit for liquid chromatograph whereby a sample is analyzed while changing the mixing ratio of multiple kinds of solvents, mixing of the solvents can be accelerated without adding any novel device such as a mixer. The pump unit for liquid chromatograph has a configuration which comprises cylinders for introducing a multiple kinds of solvents thereinto and plungers that are reciprocated so as to introduce the solvents and discharge the same for sending, wherein a plurality of channels are formed in the cylinders for mixing the solvents.

摘要:
In a liquid delivery device, when an inlet-side check valve and an outlet-side check valve of a first cylinder are both closed, and compression of an eluent inside the first cylinder is started by means of a first plunger inside the first cylinder, a control unit doubles the rotational speed of a step motor, and measures the amount of change in the pressure inside the first cylinder which changes for a prescribed time by means of a first cylinder internal pressure detector. The time elapsed until the pressure inside the first cylinder is the same as the pressure inside a discharge-side flow passage is predicted using the rate of change over time of the pressure of the eluent. When the predicted elapsed time has elapsed, the rotational speed of the step motor is returned to the original speed, and the compression of the eluent inside the first cylinder is completed.
