Hybridization reactions in a controlled reaction chamber system
The patent US12064769B2 describes a sophisticated system designed to facilitate chemical reactions through controlled mixing and heating. Central to this system is a reaction oven that houses at least one reaction chamber featuring a functionalized surface and a fluid. The system includes a rotatable rack that holds the reaction chamber, a motor for imparting rotational motion, and a controller that manages both the motor and a heating element. The controller is programmed to execute a protocol stored in its memory, which outlines various time intervals, rotational characteristics, and temperature settings. Notably, the rotational characteristics and temperatures are selected randomly from predefined distributions, allowing for dynamic adjustments during the reaction process.
Additionally, the patent outlines methods for mixing within the reaction chamber, emphasizing automated control over the motor and heating element. The method includes rotating the rack at different speeds and directions, as well as adjusting the temperature at specified intervals. The electronic controller plays a crucial role in executing these tasks, ensuring that the system can adapt to varying conditions throughout the reaction. The hybridization oven described in the patent further enhances this functionality by integrating a drive motor, heating element, and electronic controls to optimize the reaction environment. Overall, the invention aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of chemical reactions through precise control of mixing and temperature.
