Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of polypeptide biotechnology, and in particular to a polypeptide biosynthesis reactor that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of peptide biosynthesis, the reactor is a core piece of equipment, and its cleaning effectiveness is crucial to product quality and production efficiency. Traditional peptide biosynthesis reactors often retain reactants, catalysts, and other impurities after use. Current reactor cleaning methods primarily rely on manual operation, requiring operators to manually disassemble and wipe each component. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inefficient. Furthermore, it struggles to thoroughly clean complex internal structures (such as stirring shafts and inner wall corners), easily leading to cleaning agent residue or microbial growth, affecting the accuracy of subsequent reactions and product purity. Simultaneously, improper operation during manual cleaning can scratch the reactor's inner wall or damage seals, reducing equipment lifespan. In addition, the fixed structure of traditional reactor cleaning devices prevents flexible adjustment of cleaning intensity and scope based on the degree of contamination in different areas of the reactor, resulting in inconsistent cleaning effectiveness. With the increasing demands for refined and large-scale peptide synthesis processes, there is an urgent need for a reactor cleaning system that can achieve efficient, convenient, and comprehensive cleaning to address the problems of low efficiency, incomplete cleaning, and equipment damage associated with traditional cleaning methods, ensuring the stability of the peptide synthesis process and product quality.

The base is secured with locking bolts and nuts; a cover is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper surface of the base; a first motor is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover chamber; a bearing seat is fixedly connected to the top surface of the cover chamber; slots are provided on both sides of the cover; a lead screw is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor; the other end of the lead screw is movably connected to the bearing seat; a lifting block is threaded onto the lead screw; the two ends of the lifting block are slidably connected to the slots; lifting brackets are fixedly connected to both ends of the lifting block; a cleaning and stirring assembly is connected to the lifting brackets.

[0005] Preferably, the cleaning and stirring assembly comprises a second motor, a rotating arm, a third motor, a rotating shaft, a stirring rod, a column, a rotating rod, a bearing, a first gear, a fourth motor, a second gear, a connecting rod, a first cleaning sponge, an inner tube, a second cleaning sponge, and a spring. The second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting bracket. A rotating arm is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. A third motor is fixedly connected to the left side of the lower surface of the rotating arm, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the third motor. Several stirring rods are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. A column is fixedly connected to the right side of the lower surface of the rotating arm, and a rotating rod is movably connected to the end of the column via a bearing. A first gear is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod. A fourth motor is fixedly connected to the side of the end of the column, and a second gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the fourth motor. The second gear meshes with the first gear.

[0006] Preferably, the first and second cleaning sponges are made of corrosion-resistant fiber material, and the surface is provided with dense embossed texture to improve cleaning efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the contact surface between the reactor lid and the reactor body is provided with an annular sealing ring to improve sealing performance.

[0008] Preferably, the base is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad to enhance the stability of the device.

[0009] Preferably, both the first gear and the second gear are coated with grease.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: (1) High cleaning efficiency and thorough effect: The first motor drives the screw to move the lifting bracket up and down, so that the cleaning and stirring assembly can cover the entire height range of the reactor body, achieving longitudinal cleaning without dead corners; the second motor drives the rotating arm to rotate the cleaning assembly, and in conjunction with the third motor drives the stirring rod, the stirring cleaning and inner wall wiping can be completed at the same time, significantly improving the cleaning efficiency. The first cleaning sponge is fixed to both sides of the rotating rod by the connecting rod, and rotates at high speed with the rotating rod (driven by the fourth motor through gear transmission), closely adhering to the inner wall of the reactor for ring wiping, effectively removing residual impurities from the inner wall. The second cleaning sponge is connected to the end of the inner tube by the spring, which can adapt to the curvature of the bottom of the reactor, and closely adhere to the bottom corner under the action of the spring force, solving the problem of dead corners that are difficult to reach by traditional manual cleaning. The cleaning sponge is made of corrosion-resistant fiber material, and the surface dense convex design increases the friction coefficient, enhances the peeling ability of stubborn stains, and avoids scratching the inner wall of the reactor.

[0011] (2) Convenient operation and equipment protection: No manual disassembly of the reactor lid or internal components is required. The entire cleaning process is completed by an automated cleaning assembly, reducing the intensity of manual operation and the risk of wear on seals caused by frequent disassembly. The spring-connected inner tube structure can automatically adjust the pressure of the second cleaning sponge according to the cleaning resistance, avoiding excessive squeezing and damage to the bottom of the reactor; the gear transmission system is coated with grease to reduce mechanical wear and extend the service life of the equipment; the annular sealing ring improves the sealing performance between the reactor lid and the reactor body, prevents liquid leakage during the cleaning process, and ensures operational safety.

[0012] (3) Stable structure and strong adaptability: The anti-slip rubber pad at the bottom of the base enhances the equipment's vibration resistance and prevents displacement during cleaning; the support legs are fixedly connected to the base, and together with the rigid structure of the cover, ensure the stability of the lifting support during movement. The cleaning and stirring assembly can not only be used for cleaning, but also as a stirring device during the reaction process (driven by a third motor to stir the stirring rod), realizing the integration of "reaction-cleaning" functions, reducing equipment idle rate and lowering production costs.

[0013] (4) Production efficiency and quality assurance: Automated cleaning processes can significantly shorten the time for a single cleaning cycle, which is especially suitable for the rapid turnaround requirements of multiple batches of reactions in large-scale production. Thoroughly cleaning the inner walls and bottom of the reactor and the bottom of the reactor reduces the residue of cleaning agents and microorganisms, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent peptide synthesis reactions and the purity of the products, and improving the stability of production quality.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the specific structure of the cleaning and stirring assembly includes a second motor 15, a rotating arm 16, a third motor 17, a rotating shaft 18, a stirring rod 19, a column 20, a rotating rod 21, a bearing 22, a first gear 23, a fourth motor 24, a second gear 25, a connecting rod 26, a first cleaning sponge 27, an inner tube 28, a second cleaning sponge 29, and a spring 30; the second motor 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting bracket 14; the rotating arm 16 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 15; the third motor 17 is fixedly connected to the left side of the lower surface of the rotating arm 16, the rotating shaft 18 is fixedly connected to the output end of the third motor 17, and several stirring rods 19 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 18; A column 20 is fixedly connected to the right side of the lower surface of the rotating arm 16. A rotating rod 21 is movably connected to the end of the column 20 via a bearing 22. A first gear 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 21. A fourth motor 24 is fixedly connected to the side of the end of the column 20. A second gear 25 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fourth motor 24.

A second cleaning sponge 29 is fixedly connected to the end of the inner tube 28.

During normal operation, the stirring rod 19 on the rotating shaft 18 can be used to stir the liquid as a stirring device. When cleaning is required, add cleaning solution to the reactor body 2.
