Abstract: The present invention relates to an improvement in a technique of a large-volume sample injection in high-performance liquid chromatography or supercritical fluid chromatography. A sample injection device 10 comprises: a sample container 12; a sample loop 14; a syringe 16, a liquid transfer channel 18; a first channel switching valve 30 that switches the sample loop to be detachable to the liquid transfer channel; and a second channel switching valve 40 that switches the channel of the syringe 16 together with the first channel switching valve. The second channel switching valve 40 comprises a stator part that has six through holes at vertex positions of a regular octagon, and a rotor part that rotates in contact with the stator part to switch a channel. The rotor part has three channel grooves, and two of the through holes and one of the channel grooves face each other to form a channel.
