EMBODIMENT

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 Figure 8 The present application provides a water-soluble enteric-coated resin drug multi-dose form adaptive high-efficiency coating pot, which mainly comprises an air-tight tank 1, a rotary coating pot 2, a diaphragm vacuum pump 4, a servo motor 5, a connecting main shaft 6, a sealing cover 7, a metal feeding pipe 8, a coating material pipe 9, a hot air pipe 10, a double-channel electromagnetic valve 11, an air heating tank 12, a coating material injection pipe 13, a hot air injection pipe 14, and a stirring rod 15.

[0032] The air-tight tank 1 is a conical sealed cavity, and the inner wall thereof is provided with a corrosion-resistant coating to prevent chemical substances from corroding the inside of the tank during coating, thereby ensuring the service life of the equipment and the purity of the drug. The conical sealed cavity provides a stable low-pressure or even vacuum environment.

[0033] ​Inside the air-tight tank 1, a rotary coating pot 2 is connected by bearing assembly, the rotary coating pot 2 is the core component for containing medicine for coating treatment, the side wall of the pot body is provided with dense micropores, the aperture of the micropores is 0.1-1mm, and the porosity is 30%-50%, the aperture and porosity in the range are designed to make the hot air uniformly penetrate the medicine layer in the pot and effectively discharge the water vapor generated in the coating process, while preventing the medicine particles from escaping from the micropores.

[0034] A diaphragm vacuum pump 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom center of the air-tight tank 1, the air suction end of the diaphragm vacuum pump 4 is in sealed communication with the inside of the air-tight tank 1, responsible for sucking out the air in the air-tight tank 1 to form a negative pressure environment, thereby accelerating the evaporation of moisture; the diaphragm vacuum pump 4 is fixedly connected with a servo motor 5 at the bottom through a flange, the driving shaft of the servo motor 5 extends along the axial direction and is drivingly connected with a connecting main shaft 6 through a shaft coupling; the connecting main shaft 6 penetrates the center shaft hole of the diaphragm vacuum pump 4 and is fixedly connected with the bottom center of the rotary coating pot 2; the servo motor 5 drives the connecting main shaft 6 to rotate the rotary coating pot 2; in order to ensure the sealing of the air-tight tank 1, a mechanical seal is arranged between the connecting main shaft 6 and the shaft hole of the diaphragm vacuum pump 4, which effectively prevents external air from entering and maintains the vacuum state in the tank.

[0035] A sealing cover 7 is detachably connected to the top opening of the air-tight tank 1 through a sealing ring, which facilitates the cleaning, maintenance, loading and unloading of the medicine inside the air-tight tank 1; a metal feeding pipe 8 vertically penetrates the center of the sealing cover 7, and is fixed and sealed between the sealing cover 7 by welding, ensuring the sealing and structural stability.

[0036] The metal feeding pipe 8 is provided with a coating material pipe 9 and a hot air pipe 10 parallel along the axial direction inside, the coating material pipe 9 is used for conveying coating liquid, and the hot air pipe 10 is used for conveying dry hot air; the input ends of the coating material pipe 9 and the hot air pipe 10 are both extended outside the sealing cover 7 and are jointly connected with a double-channel electromagnetic valve 11, which is used for independently controlling the flow of coating material and hot air. The input end of the hot air pipe 10 is in sealed communication with the air outlet end of an air heating tank 12 through a pipeline, and the air heating tank 12 is used for filtering and heating the entering hot air.

[0037] The metal feeding pipe 8 is fixedly connected with at least three coating material spraying pipes 13 on one side of the side wall inside the air-tight tank 1 along the radial direction, the input ends of the coating material spraying pipes 13 are in sealed communication with the output end of the coating material pipe 9, responsible for uniformly spraying the coating material to the surface of the medicine in the rotary coating pot 2; the other side of the side wall of the metal feeding pipe 8 is fixedly connected with at least three hot air spraying pipes 14 along the radial direction, the input ends of the hot air spraying pipes 14 are in sealed communication with the output end of the hot air pipe 10, used for spraying the heated hot air to the medicine to accelerate drying.

[0038] In order to further improve the mixing uniformity of the medicine, the lower end of the metal feeding pipe 8 inside the air-tight tank 1 is also symmetrically fixedly connected with at least two stirring rods 15, which remain relatively static when the rotary coating pan 2 rotates, and generate relative motion with the rotating medicine, thereby effectively stirring the medicine, preventing agglomeration and adhesion, and ensuring the uniformity of the coating.

[0039] In use of the coating pan, first, the medicine chips are poured into the rotary coating pan 2, then the sealing cover 7 is covered, and the coating material pipe 9 is connected with the container containing the coating material. After preparation, the servo motor 5 is started to drive the rotary coating pan 2 to rotate. When the rotary coating pan 2 rotates, the medicine chips are uniformly dispersed on the conical inner wall of the rotary coating pan 2 by centrifugal force, and at the same time, the servo motor 5 also drives the diaphragm vacuum pump 4 to pump the air in the air-tight tank 1 outwards, so that the air pressure in the air-tight tank 1 is lower than the outside atmospheric pressure to form a vacuum. At this time, the double-channel electromagnetic valve 11 opens the communication of the coating material pipe 9 and the hot air pipe 10, so that the outside atmospheric pressure will push the coating material from the coating material pipe 9 into the metal feeding pipe 8, and then uniformly sprayed from the coating material spraying pipe 13 and covered on the surface of the medicine chips. At the same time, the outside air is also pumped in, and the air is filtered and heated by the air heating tank 12 and then sprayed from the hot air spraying pipe 14 opposite to the coating material spraying pipe 13 to heat and dry the medicine coating. At the same time, the spiral stirring blade 3 rotates with the rotary coating pan 2, and cooperates with the fixed stirring rod 15 to stir the medicine, so that it is more uniform. Subsequently, the hot air with steam enters the air-tight tank 1 through the micropores on the rotary coating pan 2, and is then pumped out by the diaphragm vacuum pump 4. The conical shape of the rotary coating pan 2 and the micropores arranged thereon enable the medicine to be uniformly dispersed and spread when the rotary coating pan 2 rotates, which is conducive to the adhesion and drying of the coating. After the hot air is blown out, it will pass through the pores between the medicine chips and then flow out through the micropores on the rotary coating pan 2, so that the drying effect is more thorough and uniform. Embodiment

[0040] On the basis of embodiment 1, the structure of the rotary coating pan 2 and the stirring effect are further optimized in this embodiment.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the rotary coating pan 2 is inverted conical, and the cone angle is 60°-120°. The inverted conical design enables the medicine to be better dispersed and rolled under the joint action of centrifugal force and gravity during rotation, avoids the medicine from being accumulated at the bottom or edge of the pan, ensures the uniformity of the coating, and maximizes the coating area while ensuring sufficient rolling of the medicine.

[0042] More preferably, the inner wall of the rotary coating pan 2 is uniformly fixedly connected with helical stirring blades 3 along the generatrix direction, the helical direction of the helical stirring blades 3 is adapted to the rotation direction of the rotary coating pan 2, when the rotary coating pan 2 rotates, the helical stirring blades 3 can effectively lift the medicine at the bottom of the pan upward, and make the upper medicine descend to the bottom of the pan, thereby realizing sufficient mixing and turning in three-dimensional directions, greatly enhancing the relative movement between the medicine particles, ensuring that each medicine can be in full contact with the coating material and hot air, further improving the uniformity and drying efficiency of the coating. This active stirring combined with passive centrifugal force dispersion enables the coating pan to efficiently adapt to various dosage forms of medicines, including micro-pellets and particles that are prone to accumulate.
