Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a blood adsorber sterilization device. Background Art
[0002] Hemoadsorbers purify blood by absorbing harmful substances in the blood, such as pathogenic factors, drugs, and poisons. To ensure the safety of hemoadsorbers in clinical use, sterilization is an integral part of their preparation.
[0003] In existing technology, hemosorbers are typically sterilized in sealed bags and then placed in a high-pressure steam autoclave. This presents several drawbacks.

This method not only increases operational complexity and carries the risk of artificially affecting the sterilization effect, but also lacks precise control over the sterilization process, impacting the performance and service life of the absorber. Utility Model Content

[0021] In some embodiments, the driving member is disposed in the sterilization box and is located in an area outside the evaporation area and the storage area, the first transmission shaft extends into the storage area, and the second transmission shaft is disposed in the adsorber bracket.
[0022] In some embodiments, the adsorber mounting position is used to clamp and fix the blood adsorber in an upright position; and / or,

[0027] The box door is provided with a sealing valve, and the sealing valve is sealed with the box body.
[0028] In some embodiments, the sterilization box is provided with a control panel, which is signal-connected to the steam generator and the driving mechanism, and is used to set and execute the sterilization operation and the capping operation.

[0033] The adsorber mounting bracket features independent mounting locations for each hemoadsorber. Each hemoadsorber is snapped into place. This organized, compartmentalized mounting prevents irregular stacking and squeezing of adsorbers, minimizing the risk of loose or deformed end caps due to improper stacking.

[0045] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0046] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the appearance of the blood adsorber sterilization device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the interior of the blood adsorber sterilization device provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0048] In a first specific embodiment, the blood adsorber sterilization device provided in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes a sterilization box 1, a steam generator 2 and an adsorber bracket 3. The sterilization box 1 is provided with an evaporation area 101 and a storage area 102, and the evaporation area 101 is communicated with the storage area 102; the steam generator 2 is provided in the evaporation area 101, and the steam generator 2 is used to generate steam and input it into the storage area 102; the adsorber bracket 3 is provided in the storage area 102, and the adsorber bracket 3 is provided with an adsorber mounting position 301, and the blood adsorber 4 is mounted in the adsorber mounting position 301.
[0049] During the conventional sterilization process of hemoadsorbers 4, irregular stacking of hemoadsorbers 4 causes the end caps to loosen or deform, which not only reduces the sterilization effect but also may damage the structural integrity of the adsorber. Furthermore, inaccurate control of the sterilization process may result in incomplete sterilization or over-sterilization, affecting the performance and service life of the adsorber.
[0050] In response to these problems, the blood adsorber sterilization device provided in this application effectively solves the above problems through the reasonable layout of the evaporation area 101 and the storage area 102 inside the sterilization box 1, and the coordinated use of the steam generator 2 and the adsorber bracket 3. The zoning layout inside the sterilization box 1 divides the sterilization process into the evaporation area 101 and the storage area 102, which simplifies the sterilization process and makes the generation and application of steam more centralized and efficient. The steam generator 2 is located in the evaporation area 101, directly generates steam, and through communication with the storage area 102, directly transports the steam to the area that needs to be sterilized, reducing the loss of steam during the transmission process and ensuring the efficiency of the sterilization process.
[0051] The adsorber mounting positions 301 on the adsorber holder 3 provide independent mounting locations for each hemosorber 4. Each hemosorber 4 is snapped into place within the adsorber mounting positions 301. This orderly, compartmentalized mounting arrangement prevents irregular stacking and compression of adsorbers, reducing the risk of loosening or deformation of the end caps due to improper stacking. This mounting arrangement ensures the stability of the adsorbers during sterilization, improving sterilization uniformity and reliability.
[0052] In combination with the above structure and process description, it can be seen that the blood adsorber sterilization device has at least the following beneficial effects: the blood adsorber sterilization device effectively avoids the loosening or deformation of the end cover of the blood adsorber 4 due to irregular stacking during the sterilization process through the reasonable layout of the evaporation area 101 and the storage area 102 inside the sterilization box 1 and the coordinated use of the steam generator 2 and the adsorber bracket 3, thereby improving the sterilization efficiency and the service life of the adsorber.
[0053] In some embodiments, the hemoadsorber sterilization device further comprises:
[0054] The cap screwing device 5 is provided in the storage area 102 and is used for screwing the end cap of the blood adsorber 4 .
[0055] In this embodiment, the blood adsorber sterilization device is newly provided with the function of tightening the end cap through the cap screwing device 5 , so that the end cap of the blood adsorber 4 can be tightened directly in a sterile environment after steam sterilization.
[0056] Compared to the prior art method of requiring the adsorber to be brought back to the sterile laboratory for inspection and tightening, the tightening operation in this embodiment still takes place in the steam sterilization environment. This not only simplifies the entire sterilization and tightening process, but also reduces the risk of contamination caused by multiple handling, improving the efficiency and safety of the sterilization and tightening operations. By integrating the cap screw 5 within the sterilization chamber 1, the sterilization and tightening operations are integrated, further improving the sterilization quality and reliability of the blood adsorber 4.
[0057] In some embodiments, the hemoadsorber sterilization device further comprises:
[0058] The driving mechanism 6 is in driving connection with the capping device 5 . The driving mechanism 6 is used to drive the capping device 5 to rotate so as to screw the end cap of the blood adsorber 4 .
[0059] In this embodiment, the introduction of a drive mechanism 6 automates the capping operation, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of end cap tightening compared to manual operation of the capping device 5. The automated capping process reduces the impact of human factors on tightening quality, ensuring that each end cap of the hemoadsorber 4 is tightened to the appropriate torque, thereby improving the sealing and safety of the sterilized hemoadsorber 4.
[0060] It should be noted that the present embodiment does not specifically limit the specific implementation method of the drive mechanism 6. Various drive methods such as electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic can be used to adapt to different usage environments and requirements. Similarly, the transmission connection method between the capping device 5 and the drive mechanism 6 is also diverse, and can be direct drive, gear drive, chain drive, belt drive, etc., and can be flexibly selected according to the specific design and application scenario.
[0061] In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 6 includes:
[0062] Driving member 61;
[0063] A first transmission shaft 62 is provided on the driving member 61 and is used to output the rotational power of the driving member 61;
[0064] A first gear 63 is provided on the first transmission shaft 62;
[0065] A second transmission shaft 64 is connected to the capping device 5 and is used to drive the capping device 5 to rotate;
[0066] The second gear 65 is disposed on the second transmission shaft 64 , and the second gear 65 is meshed with the first gear 63 .
[0067] In this embodiment, the driving member 61 is the power source of the drive mechanism 6, responsible for providing rotational power. When the driving member 61 is in operation, it transmits the rotational power through the first transmission shaft 62. The first transmission shaft 62 is fixed to the driving member 61 and its design ensures that power is efficiently transmitted from the driving member 61 to the first gear 63.
[0068] The first gear 63 is mounted on the first transmission shaft 62. When the first transmission shaft 62 rotates, the first gear 63 also rotates. The first gear 63 is meshed with the second gear 65. This meshing relationship ensures that power can be smoothly transmitted from the first gear 63 to the second gear 65.
[0069] A second transmission shaft 64 is connected to the capping device 5, and a second gear 65 is mounted on one end of the second transmission shaft 64. When the first gear 63 rotates, driving the second gear 65, the second transmission shaft 64 also rotates, thereby driving the capping device 5 to operate. The rotation of the capping device 5 tightens the end cap of the hemoadsorbent 4.
[0070] The entire drive mechanism 6 forms a power transmission chain, from the driver 61 to the first transmission shaft 62, to the first gear 63, and then to the second transmission shaft 64 via the second gear 65, ultimately rotating the capping device 5. This design not only ensures efficient power transmission but also allows for precise control of the rotational speed and torque of the capping device 5 to accommodate the tightening requirements of different hemoadsorbent device 4 end caps, ensuring the reliability and efficiency of the tightening process.
[0071] Optionally, the driving member 61 is a motor.
[0072] In some embodiments, there are multiple first gears 63 , and the multiple first gears 63 are arranged along the axial direction of the first transmission shaft 62 .
[0073] In this embodiment, Figure 2For example, multiple first gears 63 are provided on the first transmission shaft 62 to achieve multiple power output points in the vertical direction. This design allows the adsorber mounting position 301 and the cap screwing device 5 to be arranged at different heights, thereby expanding the number of locations for fixing the blood adsorber 4.
[0074] In some embodiments, there are multiple second gears 65 , and the multiple second gears 65 are arranged along the circumference of the first gear 63 .
[0075] In this embodiment, Figure 2 For example, there are multiple second gears 65, and these second gears 65 are arranged along the circumference of the first gear 63, realizing multiple power output points in the horizontal direction. This means that on the same horizontal plane, adsorber mounting positions 301 and cap screwing devices 5 can be set at multiple locations, thereby expanding the number of locations for fixing the blood adsorber 4.
[0076] In some embodiments, the driving member 61 is disposed in the sterilization box 1 and is located outside the evaporation area 101 and the storage area 102 . The first transmission shaft 62 extends into the storage area 102 . The second transmission shaft 64 is disposed on the adsorber bracket 3 .
[0077] In this embodiment, the driver 61 is placed in the non-sterile area of the sterilization box 1. This layout helps to avoid the mutual influence between the driver 61 and the sterilization environment, and at the same time facilitates its maintenance. The first transmission shaft 62 extends from the driver 61 to the storage area 102, ensuring the directness and efficiency of power transmission. The second transmission shaft 64 is mounted on the adsorber bracket 3 and is directly connected to the capping device 5. This configuration enables the capping device 5 to accurately align with each adsorber mounting position 301 to achieve precise capping operation. This design optimizes the power transmission path and improves the stability and reliability of the overall capping process.
[0078] In some embodiments, the adsorber mounting position 301 is used to clamp and fix the blood adsorber 4 in an upright position.
[0079] In this embodiment, the design of the adsorber mounting position 301 ensures that the blood adsorber 4 can be stably clamped and fixed in an upright position. This design helps to improve the efficiency and stability of the sterilization and tightening process.
[0080] In some embodiments, an elastic member for abutting against the blood adsorber 4 is provided on the inner side of the adsorber mounting position 301 .
[0081] In this embodiment, the inner elastic member further improves the clamping effect and protects the end cap of the blood adsorber 4 from damage during the tightening operation. The elastic member can be made of a material such as a high-temperature resistant silicone pad.
[0082] In some embodiments, the adsorber mounting position 301 includes a first clamping head 31 and a second clamping head 32 that are spaced apart. The first clamping head 31 and the second clamping head 32 are used to clamp the two ends of the blood adsorber 4 .
[0083] In this embodiment, the first clamp 31 and the second clamp 32 are independently fixed to the adsorber bracket 3. This design allows the blood adsorbers 4 of different sizes to be adapted by adjusting the distance between the two, thereby increasing the versatility and flexibility of the sterilization device.
[0084] In some embodiments, the sterilization box 1 includes a box body 11 and a door 12 connected to each other, and the door 12 and the box body 11 are combined to form a storage area 102;
[0085] The box body 11 is provided with an exhaust valve 111 and a drain port 112 . The exhaust valve 111 is communicated with the storage area 102 , and the drain port 112 is communicated with the evaporation area 101 .
[0086] The box door 12 is provided with a sealing valve 121 , which is sealed to the box body 11 .
[0087] In this embodiment, the sterilization chamber 1 is designed to consist of two main parts: a chamber body 11 and a chamber door 12. These parts are connected to each other and together form a storage area 102, while the evaporation area 101 is independently formed by the chamber body 11. The storage area 102 is a closed and sealed space suitable for placing the blood adsorber 4 for sterilization.
[0088] The housing 11 is specifically equipped with an exhaust valve 111 and a drain port 112. The exhaust valve 111 is directly connected to the storage area 102. Its primary function is to exhaust steam and air from the storage area during or after sterilization, helping to regulate and balance the pressure within the storage area and ensure a stable sterilization environment. It also facilitates a rapid return to normal pressure after sterilization, facilitating subsequent operations. The drain port 112 is connected to the evaporation area 101 and collects and drains condensed water or other liquids generated within the evaporation area 101 during the sterilization process, as well as excess water from the steam generator 2.
[0089] A sealing valve 121 mounted on the door 12 forms a sealed connection with the chamber body 11. This sealing design ensures the tightness of the storage area 102 during the sterilization process, preventing steam or other gases from leaking into the external environment and ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the sterilization process. The sealing valve 121 provides a good seal when the sterilization chamber 1 is closed, yet can be easily opened for operation or maintenance of the storage area 102, ensuring ease and flexibility of operation.
[0090] In some cases, the process for using the hemoadsorber sterilization device is described below.
[0091] Initially, the operator opens the chamber door 12 to place the hemoadsorber 4 onto the adsorber mounting position 301 within the storage area 102. Once ready, the operator then closes the chamber door 12, which in turn closes the sealing valve 121 and the exhaust valve 111, ensuring that the storage area 102 is completely sealed and ready for the subsequent sterilization process.
[0092] Next, the steam generator 2, located within the evaporation zone 101 of the sterilizer 1, is activated to generate high-temperature steam. This steam enters the storage zone 102, effectively sterilizing the hemoadsorber 4 therein. This process utilizes the heat and penetrating power of the high-temperature steam to eliminate any microorganisms, ensuring the cleanliness and safety of the hemoadsorber 4.
[0093] After the sterilization process is completed, the sealing valve 121 cannot be opened due to the pressure in the storage area 102. To ensure that the air pressure and environment in the storage area 102 can be restored to a suitable state, the exhaust valve 111 is opened. Through the regulation of the exhaust valve 111, the steam in the storage area 102 is gradually discharged. After a period of time, the pressure in the storage area 102 returns to normal pressure, creating conditions for the tightening operation.
[0094] After confirming that the pressure in the storage area 102 is normal, the driving mechanism 6 starts to operate, controlling the capping device 5 to tighten the end cap of the hemoadsorbent 4. The capping device 5 uses the power output of the driving mechanism 6 to tighten the end cap of the hemoadsorbent 4, ensuring its sealing and preventing recontamination after sterilization.
[0095] After steam sterilization is completed and the end caps are tightened, the operator opens the sealing valve 121 and the chamber door 12. At this time, the blood adsorber 4 that has been sterilized and has the end caps tightened can be safely taken out.
[0096] In some cases, the steam generator 2 is composed of a water tank 21 and a heater 22 , which work together to generate high-temperature steam for sterilization. The drain port 112 can drain the water in the water tank 21 .
[0097] The water tank 21 is part of the steam generator 2 and stores the water used to generate steam. Before the sterilization process begins, an appropriate amount of water is added to the water tank 21. A heater 22 is installed inside or below the water tank 21 to heat the water. When heater 22 is operating, it converts electrical energy into thermal energy, bringing the water in the water tank 21 to a boil and generating steam in the evaporation zone 101.
[0098] In this embodiment, before operation begins, an appropriate amount of water needs to be added to the water tank 21. To ensure safety and efficiency, a low water level alarm is installed in the water tank 21. Once the water level is detected to be below a preset minimum, the power supply to the heater 22 is automatically cut off and an alarm is sounded to alert the operator.
[0099] When the sterilization device is started, the heater 22 immediately starts to heat the water in the water tank 21. When the water temperature in the water tank 21 reaches or exceeds the preset sterilization temperature, the heater 22 automatically stops heating to maintain a constant steam temperature to ensure the effectiveness of the sterilization process.
[0100] In some embodiments, the sterilization box 1 is provided with a control panel 13 , which is signal-connected to the steam generator 2 and the driving mechanism 6 . The control panel 13 is used to set and execute the sterilization operation and the capping operation.
[0101] In this embodiment, the control panel 13 may be provided with a variety of control buttons and display interfaces, such as a temperature control knob, a timer, a start / stop button, and a display screen for displaying the current sterilization status and capping status. The operator can use these control interfaces to easily set the desired sterilization temperature and time parameters, as well as parameters such as capping torque and speed.
[0102] When the operator sets all parameters and starts the sterilization process through the control panel 13, the control panel 13 sends a corresponding signal to the steam generator 2, which activates the heater 22 to heat the water in the water tank 21 and generate steam for sterilization. At the same time, the control panel 13 also monitors the temperature and pressure during the sterilization process to ensure that the sterilization conditions meet the preset standards.
[0103] After the sterilization process is completed, the control panel 13 will send a signal to the drive mechanism 6 according to the preset program to start the capping device 5 to perform the capping operation, ensuring that the end cap of the blood adsorber 4 is properly tightened, completing the entire sterilization and preparation for use process.
[0104] In some embodiments, the sterilization box 1 is provided with a pressure sensor 14 , which is used to detect the pressure of the storage area 102 ; the control panel 13 is connected to the pressure sensor 14 by signal, and the control panel 13 is also used to display the pressure of the storage area 102 .
[0105] In this embodiment, the sterilizer 1 integrates a pressure sensor 14, which is a key component for accurately monitoring the internal pressure of the storage area 102. The pressure sensor 14 is installed at an appropriate location in the storage area 102 and can detect and record the pressure changes in the storage area 102 during the sterilization process in real time.
[0106] Through the signal connection with the control panel 13, the data of the pressure sensor 14 can be transmitted in real time and displayed on the control panel 13. Such a design allows the operator to intuitively monitor the real-time pressure status of the storage area 102 to ensure that the sterilization process is carried out within a safe parameter range.
[0107] The control panel 13 not only displays pressure readings but also generates alarms or automatically adjusts pressures based on preset thresholds. For example, if the pressure in the storage area 102 exceeds a safe range or falls below the minimum pressure required for sterilization, the control panel 13 can generate audible and visual alarms, prompting the operator to take appropriate action. Furthermore, the control panel 13 can automatically adjust the operating status of the heater 22 and the opening and closing of the exhaust valve 111 to maintain an optimal sterilization environment.
[0108] In some cases, the process for using the hemoadsorber sterilization device is described below.
[0109] Open the door 12 of the sterilization chamber 1. The operator can then place the hemoadsorbers 4 one by one into the adsorber mounting locations 301 within the storage area 102. These mounting locations are designed to secure the hemoadsorbers 4 upright. Resilient members, such as high-temperature-resistant silicone pads, are incorporated into the mounting locations to provide additional protection, preventing damage when tightening the end caps. The first and second clamps 31, 32 are spaced apart to accommodate hemoadsorbers 4 of varying sizes, ensuring stable placement during the sterilization process.
[0110] After closing the door 12, the operator activates the sterilization process via the control panel 13. The control panel 13 is connected to the steam generator 2 and the drive mechanism 6 for signaling and executing the sterilization operation. The heater 22 within the steam generator 2 begins heating the water in the water tank 21, generating high-temperature steam. This steam enters the storage area 102 through the evaporation zone 101, fully sterilizing the hemosorbent 4. The sterilization process utilizes the heat and penetrating power of steam to eliminate all possible microorganisms, ensuring the cleanliness and safety of the hemosorbent 4.
[0111] After sterilization is complete, the operator opens the exhaust valve 111 via the control panel 13, releasing the steam within the storage area 102 until the pressure drops to ambient pressure. This step is necessary to ensure that the internal environment of the hemoadsorber 4 can be reduced to ambient pressure. The control panel 13 then sends a signal to the drive mechanism 6, activating the capping mechanism 5 to tighten the end cap of the hemoadsorber 4.
[0112] Throughout the sterilization and tightening process, the pressure sensor 14 within the sterilization chamber 1 monitors the pressure in the storage area 102 in real time and transmits the data to the control panel 13 for display. This provides the operator with real-time pressure feedback, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the sterilization process. Finally, when the sterilization and tightening process is complete, the operator opens the sealing valve 121 and the chamber door 12 to remove the processed hemoadsorber 4.
[0113] The entire usage process demonstrates the automated and integrated design of the blood adsorber sterilization device. By precisely controlling the sterilization conditions and tightening operations, the sterilization quality and reliability of the blood adsorber 4 are improved, while the operating process is simplified and the operator's labor intensity is reduced.
