Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of container airtightness integrity testing technology, specifically a pre-filled needle drug positive and negative pressure testing bracket. Background Technology
[0002] When assessing the airtightness of pharmaceutical products, especially sterile injectable products such as pre-filled syringes, different processes and pharmaceutical formulations present different risks. Therefore, long-term airtightness testing is particularly important. For example, sterile injectable products (small-volume pre-filled syringes) consist of three parts: a rubber stopper, a glass vial, and a push rod (the push rod may be omitted during testing). Whether this pharmaceutical packaging system will change within a certain storage period requires periodic testing. In this case, non-destructive testing is crucial. Utilizing the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the drug can effectively assess the airtightness of pre-filled syringes and analyze the airtightness over a period of time. Below is a brief explanation of positive and negative pressure testing for drug airtightness.
[0003] First, the vial is placed in a sealed pressure chamber within the equipment, and a vacuum or increased pressure is applied. The vacuum causes gas to escape through a leakage path, while increased pressure, conversely, causes liquid medication to leak out when the vacuum level is below the liquid's vapor pressure. Therefore, the increased pressure within the sealed chamber is due to leakage from the pharmaceutical packaging, and this pressure is detected by one or more sensors within the sealed chamber. If pre-filled syringes are placed directly into the pressure chamber for testing, the pressure difference can cause the stopper to shift, potentially contaminating the medication (because after the stopper shifts, the previously exposed vial wall will be in the same space as the liquid medication).
[0004] To reduce the risk of contamination and address the low efficiency and high cost of individual tests, a pre-filled needle drug positive and negative pressure test bracket is provided. The bracket is designed with a pre-filled needle holder that can move freely on the guide rod, making it suitable for pre-filled needle drugs with different liquid volumes. Multiple pre-filled needle drugs can be tested at once using the bracket fixing seat. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a pre-filled needle drug positive and negative pressure test bracket, including a bracket fixing base and a pre-filled needle bracket, wherein the pre-filled needle bracket is evenly distributed around the bracket fixing base and connected to the bracket fixing base;
[0026] The bracket fixing seat includes several vertically arranged columns 3, a fixing plate 2 and a base plate 1 connecting the upper and lower ends of the columns 3, several U-shaped grooves 9 evenly arranged along the outer edge of the fixing plate 2, a dovetail groove 10 set on the upper surface of the U-shaped groove 9, and a knurled screw 4 set on the lower surface of the U-shaped groove 9 and passing through the U-shaped groove 9.
[0027] The pre-charge needle bracket includes a base 5 connected to a U-shaped groove 9, a trapezoidal guide rail 13 vertically mounted above the base 5, a card holder 6 that slides vertically along the trapezoidal guide rail 13, and a knurled screw 7 connecting the card holder 6 and the trapezoidal guide rail 13. A U-shaped groove 17 is provided on one side of the base 5, and a pre-charge needle push rod 8 is inserted into the U-shaped groove 17 from one side, with the upper end of the pre-charge needle push rod 8 inserted into the opening on one side of the card holder 6.
[0028] Furthermore, a dovetail boss 16 is provided on the bottom periphery of the base 5. The dovetail boss 16 is slidably inserted into the dovetail groove 10. The knurled screw 4 passes through the dovetail groove 10 to lock the dovetail boss 16. The dovetail groove 10 matches the dovetail boss 16.
[0029] Furthermore, after the dovetail boss 16 is inserted into the dovetail groove 10, the semicircular arc of the U-shaped groove 9 and the semicircular arc of the U-shaped groove 17 form a circular hole. The test sample bottle body fitted on the pre-filling needle push rod 8 is located at this circular hole. A rubber stopper is provided at the mouth of the test sample bottle, and the pre-filling needle push rod 8 passes through the rubber stopper.
[0030] Furthermore, the card holder 6 has two layers on one side where the pre-charge needle push rod 8 is located, forming a lower chamber 15.

[0032] Furthermore, the surface of the base plate 1 is provided with several screw through holes 12, and the surface of the fixing plate 2 is provided with several screw through holes 11.
[0033] Working principle:
[0034] The pre-filled needle push rod 8 is fixed by connecting the base 5 and the card holder 6, preventing the pre-filled needle push rod 8 from moving during the test and causing the rubber stopper to shift. This effectively avoids the situation where the rubber stopper shifts and the medicine is contaminated during the test. The U-shaped groove 9 of the fixing plate 2 and the U-shaped groove 17 of the base 5 combine to form a round hole for fixing the pre-filled needle bottle body, ensuring that the medicine bottle will not fall off the bracket. The dovetail groove 10 positions the base 5, and the pre-filled needle bracket is tightened by the knurled screw 4 to prevent it from falling off the bracket fixing seat.
[0035] The holder 6 can move freely up and down along the trapezoidal guide rail 13 to be adjusted to a suitable position. The position of the holder 6 is locked and fixed by the knurled screw 7. It can adapt to pre-filled needle drugs with different liquid contents, thus improving the versatility and flexibility of the test.
[0036] The position of the retainer 6 is fixed by the knurled screw 27, which is simple and convenient to operate and easy to adjust and fix the position of the pre-charge needle push rod, thus improving the efficiency and convenience of testing.
[0037] The stand holder can test multiple pre-filled needle drugs at once. The assembled and installed stand is placed in a sealed container for testing, which greatly improves testing efficiency and saves time and labor costs.
