Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drug mixers, specifically an ultrasonic drug mixer. Background Technology
[0002] In pharmaceutical preparation and experimentation, drug shakers are commonly used devices to promote the dispersion and mixing of drugs in aqueous solutions, thereby improving drug solubility, enhancing efficacy, or meeting specific experimental requirements. Currently, the core mechanical principle of mainstream drug shakers on the market is to apply external force to the mixing of the drug and solvent (usually water) through periodic vibration or reciprocating motion, thus achieving physical dispersion of the drug.
[0003] However, the effectiveness and uniformity of this dispersion method are largely constrained by the compatibility of the drug with water. For drugs with good hydrophilicity, the shaker can effectively promote their dissolution and dispersion; but for hydrophobic drugs or drugs with special surface properties, the dispersion effect is generally poor, which can easily lead to problems such as drug particle aggregation and incomplete dissolution, thereby affecting the drug's efficacy or the accuracy of experimental results.
[0004] Specifically, as disclosed in patent CN 220531386 U, a drug shaker has a certain number of clamping plates (e.g., 15) in its clamping tray. These clamping plates are intended to secure the medicine bottles, but due to the limited number of plates, when processing a large number of bottles, they must be handled in batches, undoubtedly increasing operation time and complexity, and reducing work efficiency. Furthermore, because medicine bottles vary in size, the clamping plates have different degrees of tightness when holding different sized bottles, which may result in some bottles being unstable or difficult to hold.
[0005] On the other hand, patent CN 221772077 U discloses a miniature drug shaker that uses positioning holes (such as 6) to fix the medicine bottle. Although this improves the fixing effect to some extent, the size of the positioning holes limits it to only fit medicine bottles of a specific diameter. It cannot effectively fix medicine bottles of other sizes, thus limiting its scope of use.
[0006] For example, the clinical drug oscillator described in patent CN 220990566 U achieves the oscillation effect by moving the drug up and down, but the frequency and direction of the movement are not adjustable, which to some extent limits its ability to adapt to different drug oscillation requirements.
[0007] Furthermore, patent CN 220294558 U discloses a medication shaker specifically for nursing care. This shaker optimizes the fixation of medicine bottles, such as by setting up a medicine bottle placement position, a limiting plate, and a limiting hole, effectively improving the stability of the medicine bottle. However, this design has high requirements for the uniformity of the height of the medicine bottles, and the size of the limiting hole is fixed, limiting its ability to limit medicine bottles of different heights, which to some extent restricts its applicability.
[0008] Similarly, the drug shaker disclosed in patent CN 221287610 U is similar in design to that in CN 220294558 U, both emphasizing the fixation of the medicine bottle and preventing it from being thrown out. However, both have certain requirements for the uniformity of the height and diameter of the medicine bottle, which can easily cause inconvenience in practical applications, as medicine bottles from different batches or from different sources often have size differences.
[0009] Therefore, we propose an ultrasonic drug mixer that uses ultrasonic energy to mix drugs. The mixing effect is better than that of mechanical shaking, and it does not require a special clamping mechanism to clamp the medicine bottle. The medicine bottle is limited by hooks and rings, which is simple, convenient and widely adaptable. Utility Model Content
[0010] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to practical needs, and provide an ultrasonic drug mixer to solve the problem that the effectiveness and uniformity of current traditional dispersion methods are largely limited by the compatibility of drugs with water. For drugs with good hydrophilicity, the oscillator can effectively promote their dissolution and dispersion; however, for hydrophobic drugs or drugs with special surface properties, the dispersion effect is generally poor, which can easily lead to problems such as drug particle aggregation and incomplete dissolution, thereby affecting the drug's efficacy or the accuracy of experimental results.
[0011] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an ultrasonic drug mixer is designed, including a mixing box, the mixing box having an opening, a water tank inside the mixing box, a mesh trough frame being engaged inside the water tank, a water-impermeable box being placed inside the mesh trough frame, and multiple lifting rings being fixed inside the water-impermeable box, the multiple lifting rings being distributed around the perimeter of the water-impermeable box, and a medicine bottle limiting mechanism being provided between the multiple lifting rings.
[0012] Preferably, the medicine bottle limiting mechanism includes multiple sets of horizontal hooks and multiple sets of vertical hooks, which pass through multiple lifting rings respectively.
[0013] Preferably, each group of horizontal hooks and vertical hooks consists of two hooks, and a rubber band is fixed between each of the two horizontal hooks and the two vertical hooks.
[0014] Preferably, the rubber strips of the horizontal hook and the vertical hook are arranged alternately.
[0015] Preferably, the mesh trough frame is provided with handles at both ends of the top, and the handles are engaged with the top surface of the mixing box.
[0016] Preferably, the inner wall of the impermeable tank has a square hole, and a graduated glass observation window is installed in a sealed manner inside the square hole for observing the water level.
[0017] Preferably, a ball valve is provided at the bottom side of the mixing tank, and the ball valve is connected to a water tank located inside the mixing tank.
[0018] Preferably, the top of the mixing chamber is covered with a stainless steel cover, and the surface of the stainless steel cover is covered with a four-sided pyramidal sound-insulating foam.
[0019] Preferably, the stainless steel cover is equipped with multiple buckles around its outer circumference for fixing and sealing the stainless steel cover to the mixing chamber.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0021] 1. This utility model uses the energy of ultrasound to mix drugs, which has a better mixing effect than the shaking effect of the mechanism. Moreover, it does not require a special clamping mechanism to clamp the medicine bottle. The medicine bottle is limited by hooks and rings, which is simple, convenient and widely adaptable.
[0022] 2. This utility model allows for the normal cleaning of items placed in water after the inner waterproof tank is removed.
[0023] 3. This utility model reduces the impact of noise on operators by setting sound-insulating foam on the stainless steel cover and using four tower-lock sealing devices. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0029] Example 1: An ultrasonic drug mixer, see [link to example]. Figures 1 to 3 The system includes a mixing chamber 1 with an opening. Inside the mixing chamber 1 is a water tank, and inside the water tank is a mesh frame 2. Inside the mesh frame 2 is a waterproof chamber 6. Inside the waterproof chamber 6 are multiple lifting rings 7, which are distributed around the perimeter of the waterproof chamber 6. A medicine bottle limiting mechanism is set between the lifting rings 7. First, the ball valve 5 must be closed to prevent leakage during subsequent water filling. Then, an appropriate amount of water is poured into the water tank of the equipment to ensure that the water level is about 1 / 3 above the mixing chamber 1. A water level observation window is set inside the chamber to allow the operator to intuitively and accurately observe the current water level and adjust the water filling volume to the appropriate position. After filling the water, the operator must close the stainless steel cover 3 and secure it firmly with the tower buckle 4 to ensure that the cover will not be accidentally opened during the operation of the equipment and to ensure operational safety. Next, the power switch is turned on to supply power to the equipment. At this time, the equipment enters the standby state. The operator can select and set the required ultrasonic treatment time through the knob in the middle position.
[0030] For details, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The medicine bottle limiting mechanism includes multiple sets of horizontal hooks 8 and multiple sets of vertical hooks 9, which pass through multiple hanging rings 7 respectively.
[0031] For more details, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 Each set consists of two horizontal hooks 8 and two vertical hooks 9, and each set is secured with a rubber band between the two horizontal hooks 8 and the two vertical hooks 9.
[0032] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rubber strips of the horizontal hook 8 and the vertical hook 9 are arranged alternately up and down.
[0033] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mesh trough 2 has handles at both ends of the top, and the handles are engaged with the top surface of the mixing box 1.
[0034] It is worth noting that, see Figure 3 The inner wall of the impermeable tank 6 has square holes, and a scaled glass observation window is installed in a sealed manner in the square holes to observe the water level.
[0035] It is worth noting that, see Figure 1 A ball valve 5 is provided on the bottom side of the mixing tank 1, and the ball valve 5 is connected to the water tank located inside the mixing tank 1.
[0036] It is worth mentioning that, see Figure 1The top of the mixing chamber 1 is covered with a stainless steel cover 3, and the surface of the stainless steel cover 3 is covered with a four-sided pyramidal sound-insulating foam.
[0037] It is worth emphasizing that, see Figure 1 Multiple buckles 4 are installed around the outer circumference of the stainless steel cover 3 to secure and seal the stainless steel cover 3 to the mixing chamber 1.
[0038] When using an ultrasonic drug mixer, firstly, the ball valve 5 must be closed to prevent leakage during subsequent water filling. Then, an appropriate amount of water is poured into the equipment's water tank, ensuring that the water level is about 1 / 3 above the mixing chamber 1. A water level observation window is provided inside the chamber, allowing the operator to intuitively and accurately observe the current water level and adjust the water volume to the appropriate position. After filling, the operator must close the stainless steel cover 3 and secure it firmly using the buckle 4 structure to ensure that the cover will not be accidentally opened during equipment operation, thus ensuring operational safety. Next, the power switch is turned on to supply power to the equipment. At this time, the equipment enters standby mode, and the operator can select and set the required ultrasonic treatment duration using the knob in the middle position.
