Original Abstract Submitted
Implemented is an analysis apparatus column oven equipped with a plurality of columns, which is capable of efficiently performing heat conduction on column basis, recognizing a column cartridge that holds a column, and being easily exchanged on column basis. The column change mechanism includes the ferrule, the movable ferrule connector, the pipe, the fastener pull, the fastener fitting, the column cartridge presser, the slide guide, the RFID reader, the fixed wall, the column changer heat insulating member, the fixed bottom plate, the receiver, and the fixed fitting. A plurality of column cartridges can be installed in the heat block, and are in contact with the column heat block to control the temperature in the column cartridges. The column cartridge is fixed between left and right column change mechanisms, and when the fixed column cartridge is opened, the column change mechanism on the left side is moved leftward and opened.
