Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical production equipment technology, and in particular to a continuous, high-efficiency pharmaceutical drying and sterilization integrated equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, the drying and sterilization of powdered drugs are crucial processes for ensuring drug quality. Especially in continuous production scenarios, equipment must balance efficiency, safety, and process integration. With the increasing demand for automated production in the pharmaceutical industry, traditional separate drying and sterilization equipment, due to its fragmented processes and high degree of manual intervention, struggles to meet the efficiency and stability requirements of large-scale production. Furthermore, pharmaceutical powders are susceptible to chemical reactions due to container materials during storage and handling, or uneven processing can result from equipment structural defects, further highlighting the urgent need for multi-functional integrated equipment.
[0003] Existing pharmaceutical drying and sterilization equipment suffers from significant technical bottlenecks: First, poor material compatibility; traditional metal or ordinary plastic containers are prone to chemical reactions with pharmaceutical powders, such as metal ions potentially catalyzing powder deterioration and leading to decreased drug purity. Second, low process separation efficiency; drying and sterilization are completed in separate equipment, requiring manual powder transfer, which is not only time-consuming but also prone to secondary contamination, with a single transfer loss rate of 5%-8%. Third, insufficient processing uniformity; in static drying and sterilization modes, powder accumulation areas are prone to incomplete sterilization or drying dead zones. For example, the bottom layer of powder may have insufficient contact with the heat source, resulting in microbial residue exceeding the standard by 20%, and the fixed moisture-absorbing components lead to insufficient moisture adsorption, affecting drug stability. Furthermore, problems such as powder spillage and equipment shaking caused by manual operation further increase production risks and costs. The material defects, process fragmentation, and rough processing issues in existing technologies urgently require breakthroughs through integrated structural design, the application of inert materials, and dynamic processing mechanisms. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a continuous, high-efficiency pharmaceutical drying and sterilization integrated equipment. This equipment aims to solve problems such as potential material reactions with pharmaceutical powder, low process separation efficiency, uneven processing, and high risks associated with manual operation in existing pharmaceutical drying and sterilization equipment.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A continuous, high-efficiency pharmaceutical drying and sterilization integrated device includes a base plate. A processing box is fixedly connected to the top side of the base plate via multiple connecting rods. A lifting assembly is provided on the bottom side of the processing box. A through groove is formed on the top side of the processing box. A sliding groove is formed on the front side of the through groove. A slider is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. A housing is fixedly connected to the top side of the slider. A motor is installed inside the housing. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor. A gear groove is formed on the rear side of the slider. A moving assembly is provided inside the gear groove. Multiple rigid silicone rods are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the outer wall of the rotating rod.
[0007] Furthermore, the moving component includes a gear, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and a rack is fixedly connected to the rear side of the through slot, the rack meshing with the gear.
[0008] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate, and lifting rings are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the front and rear sides of the lifting plate. The lifting rings are slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod, and a sloping receiving block is fixedly connected to the bottom right end of the lifting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, a heating plate is installed on the left side of the inclined receiving block, and the top side of the heating plate is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the lifting plate.
[0010] Furthermore, an electric push rod is installed at the right end of the top side of the base plate, and the drive end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to an inclined plane moving block, with the left side of the inclined plane moving block abutting against the right side of the inclined plane receiving block.
[0011] Furthermore, a powder box is provided on the top side of the lifting plate, and a limit rod is fixedly connected to the left side of the processing box.
[0012] Furthermore, the rotating rod and the hard silicone rod are made from sodium silicate and hydrochloric acid.
[0013] Furthermore, the powder box is made of polycarbonate.
[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. In this utility model, the powder box is made of polycarbonate material, which is chemically inert and avoids reaction with the powder, thus ensuring the quality of the medicine from the source. The electric push rod drives the inclined plane moving block to cooperate with the inclined plane receiving block to realize the smooth lifting and lowering of the powder box, ensuring that the rotating rod and the rigid silicone rod are accurately inserted into the box, avoiding powder spillage or structural shaking caused by manual operation, and improving the safety and stability of the equipment operation.
[0016] 2. In this invention, a heating plate evenly heats and sterilizes the powder box, ensuring that the powder meets hygiene standards. A motor drives a rotating rod and a rigid silicone rod to rotate, utilizing the hygroscopic properties of the silicone rod to dry the powder. Simultaneously, the meshing transmission of gears and racks causes the silicone rod to move laterally during rotation, achieving full-range heating, hygroscopic absorption, and stirring of the powder, avoiding uneven local processing. This integrates the sterilization, drying, and mixing processes, simplifying the workflow while improving the efficiency and uniformity of drug processing. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This utility model provides an embodiment of a continuous high-efficiency pharmaceutical drying and sterilization integrated device, comprising a base plate 1, a processing box 8 fixedly connected to the top side of the base plate 1 by multiple connecting rods 3, a lifting plate 4 provided on the bottom side of the processing box 8, a through groove 10 opened on the top side of the processing box 8, a sliding groove 13 opened on the front side of the through groove 10, a slider 15 slidably connected inside the sliding groove 13, a machine box 9 fixedly connected to the top side of the slider 15, a motor 14 installed inside the machine box 9, a rotating rod 17 fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 14, a gear groove opened on the rear side of the slider 15, a gear 16 provided inside the gear groove, and multiple rigid materials fixedly connected to the bottom end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 17. The silicone rod 19 and the lifting plate 4 are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of both sides. The lifting rings 5 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 3. The bottom right end of the lifting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the inclined support block 18. The left side of the inclined support block 18 is installed with a heating plate 20. The top side of the heating plate 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the lifting plate 4. The right end of the top side of the base plate 1 is installed with an electric push rod 12. The drive end of the electric push rod 12 is fixedly connected with an inclined moving block 2. The left side of the inclined moving block 2 abuts against the right side of the inclined support block 18. The top side of the lifting plate 4 is provided with a powder box 6. The left side of the processing box 8 is fixedly connected with a limit rod 7. The powder box 6 is made of polycarbonate.
[0027] Specifically, when using this continuous high-efficiency pharmaceutical drying and sterilization integrated equipment, the operation process revolves around the automation and multi-functional integration of pharmaceutical powder processing. First, the newly produced pharmaceutical powder is put into the pharmaceutical powder box 6 made of polycarbonate material. Its chemical inertness ensures that it will not react with the pharmaceutical powder, thus guaranteeing the quality of the medicine from the source. Then, the electric push rod 12 is activated to drive the inclined plane moving block 2 to move to the left. By utilizing the inclined plane moving block 2 and the inclined plane receiving block 18, the lifting plate 4 is pushed to lift the pharmaceutical powder box 6 synchronously, so that the rigid silicone rod 19 at the bottom of the rotating rod 17 extends into the pharmaceutical powder box.
[0028] Reference Figure 2-4 Gear 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of rotating rod 17. A rack 11 is fixedly connected to the rear side of through groove 10. The rack 11 meshes with gear 16. Rotating rod 17 and hard silicone rod 19 are made of sodium silicate and hydrochloric acid.
[0029] Specifically, at this time, the heating plate 20 and the motor 14 are activated simultaneously. The heating plate 20 heats the powder box 6 to achieve constant-temperature sterilization of the powder. The motor drives the rotating rod 17 to rotate the rigid silica gel rod 19. This silica gel rod is made from sodium silicate and hydrochloric acid and has hygroscopic properties, which can absorb residual moisture in the powder. At the same time, the rotating rod 17 is linked to the gear 16, which rotates and, through meshing with the rack 11, drives the slider 15 to move laterally along the slide groove 13. This causes the rotating rigid silica gel rod 19 to perform linear reciprocating motion synchronously, ensuring that every part of the powder in the powder box 6 can undergo comprehensive treatment including heating sterilization, moisture absorption and drying, and mixing. This equipment, through the lifting transmission of the electric push rod 12, the lateral linkage of the gear 16 and the rack 11, and the integrated functional design, completes the sterilization, drying, and mixing processes simultaneously, significantly improving the continuity and efficiency of drug processing. It is suitable for industrial production scenarios of various powdered drugs.
[0030] Working principle: In use, the freshly produced medicine powder is first placed into the medicine powder box 6. Since the medicine powder box 6 is made of polycarbonate, it will not react with the medicine powder, ensuring the quality of the powder. Then, the electric push rod 12 is activated to drive the inclined plane moving block 2 to the left. Because the contact surface between the inclined plane receiving block 18 and the inclined plane moving block 2 is inclined, the movement of the inclined plane moving block 2 pushes the inclined plane receiving block 18 upwards, thereby driving the lifting plate 4 and the medicine powder box 6 upwards. This causes the bottom end of the rotating rod 17 and the hard silicone rod 19 to enter the medicine powder box 6. Then, the heating plate 20 and the motor 14 are activated. The heating plate 20 heats the medicine powder box 6. The powder inside the powder box 6 is heated and sterilized. Simultaneously, the motor 14 drives the rotating rod 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod 17 and multiple hard silicone rods 19 to rotate. Since the hard silicone rods 19 are made from sodium silicate and hydrochloric acid, they absorb the residual moisture inside the powder, thus drying the powder. At the same time, the rotating rod 17 drives the gear 16 to rotate, and the gear 16 meshes with the rack 11. Therefore, when the gear 16 rotates, it also drives the slider 15 to move, which in turn drives the rotating rod 17 and multiple hard silicone rods 19 to move, thus ensuring the all-round processing of the powder inside the powder box 6.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
