Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of collagen preparation, and in particular to a collagen degassing tank. Background Art

[0002] Collagen usually needs to be deaerated before filling to avoid bubbles mixed in the filled collagen that affect the use of the product. Methods for deaerating collagen generally include stirring, centrifugation or vacuum treatment. The method of deaeration by centrifugation is generally to place the collagen in a collagen deaerator, and then place the collagen deaerator in a centrifugal deaerator. When the centrifugal deaerator rotates at high speed, centrifugal force is generated. This centrifugal force separates the collagen and the bubbles therein, ultimately achieving the deaeration effect. In order to discharge the bubbles in the collagen deaerator, the existing collagen deaerator is generally provided with an exhaust channel. However, when sterile collagen is produced, bacteria and the like may enter the collagen from the exhaust channel during the centrifugal deaerator process, resulting in the collagen failing to meet the sterility requirements.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances. Example

[0027] This embodiment provides a collagen degassing tank 10, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 , which includes a tank body 11, a cover body 12 and a connector 13, wherein the cover body 12 and the tank body 11 are detachably connected, and the cover body 12 is provided with an exhaust channel 121 connected to the interior of the tank body 11. If the cover body 12 and the tank body 11 are detachably connected, the material in the tank body 11 can be inspected by separating the cover body 12 and the tank body 11. Exemplarily, the cover body 12 and the tank body 11 are connected by threads, the outer wall of the tank body 11 is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the cover body 12 is provided with an internal thread, and the external thread and the internal thread can be threadedly matched. It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the cover body 12 and the tank body 11 can also be other detachably connected structures, for example, the cover body 12 and the tank body 11 can be snap-connected, plug-in, etc.

[0028] Optionally, the bottom of the tank body 11 is provided with a positioning portion 111 for positioning in a centrifugal device. The positioning portion 111 is a groove or a protrusion. By cooperating with the positioning portion 111 on the bottom of the tank body 11 and the centrifugal device, the tank body 11 is positioned in the centrifugal device, and the centrifugal device then controls the collagen degassing tank 10 to centrifuge, thereby preventing the collagen degassing tank 10 from shaking violently laterally during the centrifugation process. For example, when the centrifugal device is provided with a protrusion, the bottom of the tank body 11 is provided with a groove to cooperate therewith; when the centrifugal device is provided with a groove, the bottom of the tank body 11 is provided with a protrusion to cooperate therewith.

[0029] The two ends of the connector 13 have a first connecting port 131 and a second connecting port 132 that are relatively arranged and connected, and a filter membrane 133 capable of filtering and sterilizing is provided between the first connecting port 131 and the second connecting port 132; the connector 13 is detachably connected to the cover body 12, and the exhaust channel 121 is connected to the first connecting port 131, and the second connecting port 132 is used to discharge gas.

[0030] The collagen degassing tank 10 of the present application, the exhaust channel 121 opened on the cover 12 is connected to the first connection port 131 of the connector 13, and when the collagen degassing tank 10 is placed in a degassing centrifuge for centrifugation, the gas discharged by the centrifugation enters the connector 13 from the first connection port 131 through the exhaust channel 121, and then is discharged from the second connection port 132 through the filter membrane 133. Since there is a filter membrane 133 capable of filtering and sterilizing between the first connection port 131 and the second connection port 132, bacteria cannot enter the connector 13 from the outside through the second connection port 132 and then enter the tank body 11 to contaminate the collagen in the tank body 11, and the collagen can be kept sterile during the degassing process. Exemplarily, the pore size of the filter membrane 133 is 0.1~0.22μm, for example, any one of 0.1μm, 0.12μm, 0.14μm, 0.16μm, 0.18μm, 0.2μm and 0.22μm or a value between any two of them. In addition, since the connector 13 is detachably connected to the cover body 12 , the connector 13 is replaceable and can be replaced when damaged.

[0031] Among them, the outer diameter of the filter membrane 133 is larger than the inner diameter of the first connecting port 131 and the second connecting port 132, which can ensure that whether it is discharged from the first connecting port 131 to the second connecting port 132 or entered from the second connecting port 132 to the first connecting port 131, the area of ​​the filter membrane 133 is larger, and the circulating gas can be fully filtered and sterilized.

[0032] Illustratively, the connector 13 includes a first connecting post 134, a mounting portion 136, and a second connecting post 135, which are sequentially connected. The filter membrane 133 is disposed on the mounting portion 136. The first connecting port 131 is disposed at the end of the first connecting post 134 away from the mounting portion 136, and the second connecting port 132 is disposed at the end of the second connecting post 135 away from the mounting portion 136. The first connecting post 134 is connected to the exhaust passage 121. The cover 12 has a protruding post 122 protruding from the upper surface of the cover 12. The exhaust passage 121 is disposed on the protruding post 122. The protruding post 122 is detachably connected to the first connecting post 134.

[0033] The connector 13 is provided with a first connecting column 134 and a second connecting column 135 , and the cover 12 is provided with a protruding column 122 . By connecting and fixing the first connecting column 134 and the protruding column 122 , the first connecting port 131 is connected to the exhaust channel 121 , making connection and fixing easier.

[0034] Exemplarily, the protruding column 122 includes a first protrusion 1221 and a second protrusion 1222 arranged in an annular manner. The second protrusion 1222 is arranged around the first protrusion 1221 and has a gap therebetween to form a recess 1223. The exhaust passage 121 is provided in the first protrusion 1221, and the first connecting column 134 is detachably inserted into the recess 1223. When the first connecting column 134 is inserted into the recess 1223, the first protrusion 1221 abuts against the inner wall of the first connecting column 134, and the second protrusion 1222 abuts against the outer wall of the first connecting column 134. The first protrusion 1221 and the second protrusion 1222 form a certain abutment effect on the first connecting column 134, thereby ensuring a more stable connection between the first connecting column 134 and the protruding column 122.

[0035] In summary, the collagen degassing tank 10 of the present application, the exhaust channel 121 opened on the cover 12 is connected to the first connection port 131 of the connector 13, and when the collagen degassing tank 10 is placed in a degassing centrifuge for centrifugation, the gas discharged by the centrifugation enters the connector 13 from the first connection port 131 through the exhaust channel 121, and then is discharged from the second connection port 132 through the filter membrane 133. Since there is a filter membrane 133 that can filter and sterilize between the first connection port 131 and the second connection port 132, bacteria cannot enter the connector 13 from the outside through the second connection port 132 and then enter the tank body 11 to contaminate the collagen in the tank body 11, and the collagen can be kept sterile during the degassing process. In addition, since the connector 13 and the cover 12 are detachably connected, the connector 13 is replaceable and can be replaced when damaged; the cover 12 and the tank body 11 are detachably connected, and the material in the tank body 11 can be inspected by separating the cover 12 and the tank body 11.

[0036] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
