Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical manufacturing, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine percolation extraction system with online monitoring and control functions. Background Art

[0002] At present, the control of drug quality in the pharmaceutical production industry is gradually developing towards the "Quality by Design (QbD)" model. QbD is a drug quality control concept promoted to improve drug quality, encourage technological innovation and reduce the difficulty of supervision. It is widely used in drug and pharmaceutical process development. QbD emphasizes in-depth understanding of drug quality and pharmaceutical process laws, and ensures drug quality by improving the level of process quality control. At the same time, QbD emphasizes that the focus of drug quality control should be shifted from finished product inspection to the control of raw materials, intermediates and pharmaceutical processes. In the production process of traditional Chinese medicine preparations, research on Chinese medicine quality control is mostly focused on finished preparations, and quality control of intermediates and pharmaceutical processes is very lacking. In addition, the implementation of intelligent manufacturing has become an inevitable trend for the high-quality development of the Chinese medicine industry. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a pharmaceutical system with online monitoring and control functions.

[0003] The percolation process of traditional Chinese medicine is widely used in the production of traditional Chinese medicines and is crucial for the extraction of effective ingredients from some traditional Chinese medicines. In the current production process, the percolation process of traditional Chinese medicine is mostly detected offline, which has the disadvantages of complex pre-treatment, delayed detection, and inability to recover the liquid medicine. At present, the industry lacks online detection devices and automated control systems that can sense intelligently. The percolation production process is relatively extensive, which is not conducive to the quality control of intermediates, affects the batch-to-batch consistency of intermediates, and may affect the quality of finished preparations.

[0004] A Chinese patent document with publication number CN220584189U discloses an online detection device for a Chinese medicine extraction process, which includes an extraction tank, and a detection device is arranged on one side of the extraction tank. By arranging the detection device, samples can be extracted for detection during the extraction process of the Chinese medicine, thereby achieving the effect of online detection. A Chinese patent document with publication number CN219915375U discloses an online detection system for total solids in a Chinese medicine extract, which includes a liquid inlet pipeline, a liquid outlet pipeline, a detection pipeline, a detection probe, and a refractometer, wherein the detection probe is arranged in the detection pipeline, and the detection probe is connected to the refractometer located outside the detection pipeline, and the total solids content in the extract is displayed by a digital refractometer, thereby achieving online rapid detection of total solids.

[0005] The information obtained by the above-mentioned online detection device is not rich enough and it is difficult to fully reflect the state of the percolation liquid and the percolation process. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of traditional Chinese medicine percolation extraction system with online monitoring and control functions. Utility Model Content
