Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of sterilizers, in particular to an ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device. Background Art

[0002] Ethylene oxide sterilizer is an instrument used for sterilization in industrial production and medical institutions. It is usually composed of a sterilization chamber, a heating system, a vacuum system, a dosing device and a gasification device, a residual gas treatment system, a monitoring and control system, etc.

[0003] The current ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device, after adding medicine, ethylene oxide will remain in the sterilizer. If it comes into contact with the skin, redness and swelling will quickly occur, and blistering will occur after a few hours. Repeated contact can cause allergies, and liquid splashing into the eyes can cause corneal burns.

[0004] For example, in the prior art Chinese patent document (application announcement number CN216417880U), an ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device is used. When the device is in use, the distance sensor can determine whether the door of the sterilizer box is closed, and the pressure sensor can determine whether there are items to be sterilized in the sterilizer box. The dosing is performed by automatically controlling the opening of the solenoid valve, and the mass flow meter stops the dosing according to the dosing amount. The prior art has the following problems: after the dosing is completed, ethylene oxide remains in the sterilizer. If it comes into contact with the skin, redness and swelling will occur quickly, and blistering will occur after a few hours. Repeated contact can cause sensitization, and liquid splashing into the eyes can cause corneal burns.

[0005] Therefore, in view of this situation, it is urgent to design and produce an ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device to meet the needs of actual use. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model aims to provide an ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device to solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device, comprising a first air pipe used for dosing the ethylene oxide sterilizer, the side of the first air pipe is fixedly connected to an outer shell, the upper side of the outer shell is fixedly connected to a gas tank filled with nitrogen, a second air pump is installed on the side of the gas tank, the output end of the second air pump is fixedly connected to a third air pipe, the side of the third air pipe is connected to a second air pipe connected to the first air pipe, the upper side of the outer shell is fixedly connected to the third air pump, and the upper side of the third air pump is connected to an exhaust pipe.

[0008] Preferably, a first motor is installed inside the outer shell, and an output end of the first motor is fixedly connected to a spray pipe.

[0009] Preferably, a plurality of spray ports are installed on the side of the spray pipe, and a fifth air supply pipe is connected to the side of the spray pipe.

[0010] Preferably, an end of the exhaust pipe away from the third air pump is connected to an exhaust gas processor for processing ethylene oxide, and a second gas tank is connected to the side of the fifth gas pipeline.

[0011] Preferably, a fan is installed inside the outer shell, and the end of the first air supply pipe away from the outer shell is connected to a first air pump.

[0012] Preferably, the fixed end of the first air pump is fixedly connected to an ethylene oxide placement tank, and the side of the outer shell is connected to a fourth air pipe.

[0013] Preferably, a fourth air pump is connected to the side of the fourth air delivery pipe, and a base is fixedly connected to the lower side of the outer shell.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of the utility model are as follows:

[0015] The ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device starts the second air pump after the dosing sterilization is completed, discharges the nitrogen in the gas tank to the inside of the outer shell to reduce the concentration of ethylene oxide, and at the same time the second air pipe transports the nitrogen to the inside of the first air pipe to treat the ethylene oxide remaining in the first air pipe. After the concentration of ethylene oxide is reduced to a safe range, the third air pump is started to discharge the ethylene oxide to the exhaust gas processor through the exhaust pipe to treat the ethylene oxide. After the ethylene oxide is discharged, the air in the second gas tank is sprayed into the inside of the outer shell through the spray pipe to clean the outer shell to prevent some ethylene oxide from remaining on the inner wall of the outer shell and causing harm to the human body.

[0016] The ethylene oxide sterilizer dosing device drives the ethylene oxide to move by a fan, and simultaneously starts the fourth air pump to move the ethylene oxide through the fourth air pipe, so as to circulate and transport the ethylene oxide in the outer shell, thereby preventing the ethylene oxide from accumulating inside the outer shell due to the density of ethylene oxide being higher than that of air, resulting in different ethylene oxide concentrations inside the outer shell and causing unnecessary consumption.
