Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine production, and particularly relates to a medical composite magnetic stirrer. Background Art

[0002] Agitator is a machine that has a shaft with blades rotating in a cylinder or a groove, and mixes and compounds a variety of raw materials to make them into a composite or suitable consistency. By stirring, the reactants are fully compounded and heated evenly, the reaction time is shortened, and the reaction efficiency is improved. The application of mixers is relatively wide, for example, in the fields of pharmaceutical processing, food processing, and chemical raw material production and processing, mixers are used. This application is mainly for medical pharmaceutical mixers, which are extremely important composite equipment in the pharmaceutical industry. In the pharmaceutical industry, the mixing of liquid medicines is an indispensable part of the pharmaceutical process. It involves key factors such as the uniformity, stability and effect of the drug. Traditional manual mixing can no longer meet the requirements of modern drug production for efficiency and quality. Therefore, medicinal mixers are widely used as an efficient and accurate solution. In order to meet the GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) of drug production in the production process, it is necessary to ensure that no pollution is introduced during the compounding process, the compounding is uniform and easy to clean and disinfect. For this reason, the design usually needs to be made of stainless steel with high surface finish, good sealing, and corrosion and wear resistance. In addition to the basic stirring function, it has also developed a variety of functions such as heating, cooling, vacuum stirring, vacuum degassing, high shear dispersion, etc. to meet the preparation needs of different pharmaceutical preparations (such as solid preparations, liquid preparations, semi-solid preparations, etc.).

[0003] Although most pharmaceutical blenders have good compounding capabilities, it may be difficult to ensure absolute uniformity of compounding when dealing with certain complex formulas or materials with large differences in particle size, especially when dealing with high-viscosity or non-Newtonian fluids. In addition, ordinary pharmaceutical blenders may not be able to flexibly adapt to the production processes of various types of products. For example, the same blender may require different mixing methods and speeds when dealing with solid and liquid preparations, and general-purpose blenders may have limitations in this regard. Modern pharmaceutical blenders are designed with cleaning and disinfection needs in mind, but the complex structure may lead to dead corners that are difficult to clean thoroughly, especially in equipment with internal pipes, valves, or nested components, which may breed microorganisms and are not conducive to maintaining a sterile production environment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, a medical composite magnetic stirrer comprises a tank body 1 and a stirring device 2 , wherein the stirring device 2 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1 .

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the stirring device 2 includes a magnetic cylinder 21 with a central axis groove at the bottom and an isolation cover 22 arranged outside the magnetic cylinder 21, an impeller 23 is arranged in the outer gap of the isolation cover 22, a radial outer magnetic ring 24 is arranged at the top of the impeller 23, an axial outer magnetic ring 25 is arranged on the inner wall of the impeller 23, a radial inner magnetic ring 26 is arranged at the top of the magnetic cylinder 21, an axial inner magnetic ring 27 is arranged on the inner wall of the magnetic cylinder 21, and a driving device 3 is arranged at the bottom of the magnetic cylinder 21, and the driving device 3 is connected with the central axis groove at the bottom of the magnetic cylinder 21 to drive the stirring device 2 to rotate and stir.

[0031] The driving device 3 includes a driving shaft 31 and a driving motor 32 . One end of the driving shaft 31 is inserted into the central axis groove at the bottom of the magnetic cylinder 21 and connected thereto, and the other end is rotatably connected to the driving motor 32 .

[0032] The central axes of the magnetic cylinder 21 , the isolation cover 22 and the impeller 23 coincide with each other. The impeller 23 disposed outside the isolation cover 22 maintains a certain gap with the isolation cover 22 in order to reduce the friction force when the impeller 23 rotates.

[0033] A composite magnetic stirrer is formed by setting a radial outer magnetic ring 24, a radial inner magnetic ring 26, an axial outer magnetic ring 25, and an axial inner magnetic ring 27. The advantages of permanent magnetic transmission technology are utilized, and permanent magnetic flexible transmission is applied to the field of medical stirring. The axial magnetic field and the radial magnetic field are mixed, and the composite magnetic force can transmit a higher torque. Considering that different stirring methods and speeds may be required when processing solid preparations and liquid preparations, in order to optimize the magnetic structure, the impeller 23 can obtain a higher rotation speed.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the radially outer magnetic ring 24 and the radially inner magnetic ring 26 both adopt a Halbach annular array structure.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the axial outer magnetic ring 25 and the axial inner magnetic ring 27 both adopt a Halbach linear array structure.

[0036] The radial magnetic rings adopt a linear array, and the axial magnetic rings adopt a circular array. The radial and axial magnetic rings are compounded together and work synchronously. By axially moving the magnetic cylinder 21, the air gap and the meshing area between the inner and outer magnetic rings are controlled, so that a wider range of controllable transmission torque and speed can be obtained, a more stable speed regulation performance can be obtained, and non-contact adjustment of torque and power can be achieved. It is more practical and has higher operating efficiency.

[0037] By arranging permanent magnets with different magnetizing directions according to a certain pattern, the magnetic lines of force can be gathered on one side of the magnet and weakened on the other side, thereby obtaining a relatively ideal unilateral magnetic field. The radial magnetic rings adopt a linear array, and the axial magnetic rings adopt a circular array. The radial and axial magnetic rings are compounded together and work synchronously. By axially moving the magnetic cylinder 21 and controlling the air gap and meshing area between the inner and outer magnetic rings, a wider range of controllable transmission torque and speed can be obtained, a more stable speed regulation performance can be obtained, and non-contact transmission of energy inside and outside the tank body 1 can be realized.

[0038] The impeller 23 includes a main wheel 231 (such as Figure 5 As shown) and secondary wheel 232 (as shown Figure 6As shown in the figure, the secondary wheel 232 is arranged on the top of the main wheel 231, an annular groove is arranged on the top of the secondary wheel 232, the radial outer magnetic ring 24 is arranged in the annular groove of the secondary wheel, an axial annular groove is arranged on the inner wall of the main wheel 231, and the axial outer magnetic ring 25 is arranged in the axial annular groove of the main wheel 231.

[0039] The secondary wheel 232 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes passing therethrough, and the top of the main wheel 231 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes corresponding thereto, and the secondary wheel 232 is connected to the main wheel 231 by screws.

[0040] The axial outer magnetic ring 25 is installed on the main wheel 231, and the radial outer magnetic ring 24 is installed on the secondary wheel 232, so as to expand the utilization rate of the magnetic field and obtain a larger torque.

[0041] The main wheel 231 includes a plurality of stirring impeller wings.

[0042] In some embodiments, six stirring impeller wings are evenly distributed on the main wheel 231, which can stir and compound a variety of raw materials. A mounting groove for the axial outer magnetic ring 25 is provided in the wall of the main wheel 231, and a through hole is opened in the middle.

[0043] An axial hole is opened in the middle of the secondary wheel 232, a mounting groove for the radial outer magnetic ring 24 is arranged on the top of the secondary wheel 232, and a secondary wheel wing is arranged on the top surface of the secondary wheel 232 to assist the wheel wing of the main wheel 231 in stirring.

[0044] In some embodiments, the main wheel 231 and the secondary wheel 232 are each provided with four pairs of threaded holes corresponding to each other, and are connected and fixed by screws.

[0045] like Figure 7 As shown, a radial annular groove is arranged at the top of the magnetic cylinder 21 , an axial annular groove is arranged in the magnetic cylinder 21 , the radial inner magnetic ring 26 is arranged in the radial annular groove of the magnetic cylinder 21 , and the axial inner magnetic ring 27 is arranged in the axial annular groove of the magnetic cylinder 21 .

[0046] The magnetic cylinder 21 is cylindrical in shape, and has mounting grooves for mounting radial inner magnetic ring 26 and axial inner magnetic ring 27, which play a fixing role. The center of the magnetic cylinder 21 has an axial hole and a keyway, which can be connected to the drive shaft 31 by a flat key. The drive motor 32 provides power to drive the drive shaft 31 to drive the magnetic cylinder 21 to rotate. In order to facilitate the connection and reduce the gap between the magnetic cylinder 21 and the isolation cover 22, a countersunk threaded hole is provided on the top.

[0047] like Figure 8 As shown, the bottom of the tank body 1 is connected to the bottom of the isolation cover 22 of the stirring device 2, and a static sealing gasket is arranged between the tank body 1 and the isolation cover 22. The static sealing gasket has a good sealing effect, so that the stirrer has good sealing performance.

[0048] The driving motor 32 drives the driving shaft 31 to rotate, and the driving shaft 31 drives the magnetic cylinder 21 connected thereto to rotate. The radial inner magnetic ring 26 and the axial inner magnetic ring 27 arranged in the magnetic cylinder 21 and the radial outer magnetic ring 24 and the axial outer magnetic ring 25 arranged on the impeller 23 rotate using a conforming magnetic field. When different drugs are needed, the required rotation speed is different. Therefore, the magnetic cylinder 21 can be moved axially to control the air gap and meshing area between the inner and outer magnetic rings, so as to obtain a wider range of controllable transmission torque and rotation speed, obtain more stable speed regulation performance, and realize non-contact adjustment of torque and power. It is more practical and has higher operating efficiency.
