Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of screening equipment, and in particular relates to a filtering device which can be self-cleaned and is suitable for micron-level medicinal particles. Background Art

[0002] In the process of drug production, it is often necessary to purify and collect drugs, such as filtering crystalline drug particles together with solutions to achieve solid-liquid separation, and purifying, washing, and concentrating drug-containing suspensions (liposomes, microspheres, microcrystals, etc.) by filtering. Conventional filtration methods are mainly dead-end filtration, that is, the drug solution flows through the filter in a direction perpendicular to the filter under a certain driving force or suction force, and particles smaller than the filter mesh aperture are intercepted during the flow process. Due to the small particle size, as the filtration process proceeds, the particle accumulation causes the filtration resistance to rise rapidly, and the filtration speed continues to slow down. In order to improve the filtration efficiency, it is often necessary to increase the effective filtration area or backwash the filter, which significantly increases the drug production cost and production energy consumption; in addition, when transferring samples, the drug is fully covered on the filter and accumulated into a dense cake layer, making sample collection difficult, and there is obvious drug residue in the filter and its surroundings, resulting in reduced sample transfer efficiency and reduced final product output, making it difficult to achieve industrial scale-up production.

[0003] Therefore, how to avoid the phenomenon of filter screen clogging easily in traditional dead-end filtration, improve drug filtration effect, and increase drug yield is an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a self-cleaning filtering device suitable for micron-sized medicinal particles, so as to improve the filtering effect of the medicinal liquid, enhance the convenience of operation, and solve the problems of filter blockage, low sample yield, etc. proposed in the above background technology.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A medicinal particle filtering device comprises a cylindrical body, wherein the top opening of the cylindrical body is a material taking port, the bottom opening is a liquid discharge port, and a filter screen is installed in the cylindrical body; the filter screen is arranged in parallel with the material taking port and the liquid discharge port;

[0007] A feed inlet is provided on the side of the cylindrical body. The position of the feed inlet is higher than the position of the filter screen. The feed inlet is connected to a feed pipeline.

[0008] The discharge port is designed as a quick-release chuck. After being matched with a sealing gasket and a clamp, it can be quickly connected to a pipeline system of suitable size to facilitate the discharge of the filtered liquid. The material extraction port is designed as a quick-release chuck. With a sealing gasket, a clamp, a blind plate or similar components, a sealing structure can be formed on one side of the filter material, which can withstand a pressure of no more than 3 bar and can be quickly disassembled and assembled to collect the material on the filter.

[0009] Furthermore, the cross-section of the cylindrical body is quadrilateral or circular.

[0010] Furthermore, the Ra of the circle is less than 0.3, and the diameter is 10cm-50cm.

[0011] Furthermore, the angle between the center line of the feed port and the filter is 1°-60°, and the distance from the projection of the feed port on the filter to the center of the filter is 50%-95% of the radius of the filter.

[0012] Furthermore, the filter screen is a multi-layer sintered mesh made of stainless steel, or a stainless steel woven mesh with a supporting structure.

[0013] Furthermore, the filter mesh has an aperture of 10 μm-800 μm.

[0014] Furthermore, the ratio of the diameter of the feed pipeline to the diameter of the filter screen is in the range of 0.006-0.4.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. This device realizes a special liquid flow mode by rationally configuring the position of the lateral feed channel. The sample to be filtered is spontaneously enriched to the center of the filter screen through the Bernoulli effect in the device, avoiding the accumulation of drug particles on the entire filter screen, realizing the self-cleaning function of the device, improving the filtration efficiency and bringing convenience to sample collection, effectively improving the transfer efficiency of the sample, reducing the labor intensity of the staff, and facilitating industrial production.

[0017] 2. This device does not contain any moving parts and does not require external power supply. The power for filtering and self-cleaning comes from the kinetic energy of the material at the feed inlet. It is easy to use, maintain, energy-saving and environmentally friendly, and effectively reduces the production cost of medicines.

[0018] 3. This device can be connected to the corresponding blind plate and discharge pipeline through the quick-release connectors of the discharge port and the material taking port, which can isolate the material from the external environment.
