Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vaccine adjuvant production technology, specifically a separation device for vaccine adjuvant production. Background Technology
[0002] Vaccine adjuvants are substances added to vaccines primarily to enhance their immunogenicity, that is, to increase the body's immune response to vaccine antigens. They themselves are usually not immunogenic, but they stimulate the body's immune system, making the antigens more easily recognized and processed by immune cells, thereby producing a stronger and more lasting immune response. In the production of vaccine adjuvants, separation technology is a crucial step in ensuring the purity and activity of the adjuvants.
[0003] In the existing technology, there are significant problems with cleaning and maintenance. The cleaning process of the internal structure of these separation devices is cumbersome and time-consuming, especially when dealing with adjuvants containing bioactive substances. The residual substances may cause cross-contamination to subsequent production batches, affecting product quality.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a separation device for vaccine adjuvant production. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies and solve significant problems in cleaning and maintenance, the internal cleaning process of these separation devices is cumbersome and time-consuming, especially when dealing with adjuvants containing bioactive substances.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, a separation device for vaccine adjuvant production according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a separation tank 1, on which a separation mechanism is provided. The separation mechanism includes: a separation component, which includes a fixed ring 2 fixedly attached to the inner wall of the separation tank 1, a rotating ring 3 rotatably connected to the inner circular wall of the fixed ring 2 through an annular groove, a first circular block 4 connected to the inner circular wall of the rotating ring 3 through a locking component, a rotating rod 5 fixedly attached to the bottom of the first circular block 4, a set of filter screens fixedly attached to the rotating rod 5, and a rectangular rod 6 fixedly attached to the bottom of the rotating rod 5; a driving component, which is provided at the bottom of the separation tank 1 for driving the rectangular rod 6 to rotate; and a release component, which is provided at the bottom of the first circular block 4 for releasing the first circular block 4.
[0026] During operation, the first circular block 4 is fixed in position by the locking component, and the first circular block 4 can be released by the release component to remove the rotating rod 5 and a set of filter screens for cleaning. This solves the significant problems in cleaning and maintenance in the existing technology. The internal cleaning process of these separation devices is cumbersome and time-consuming, especially when dealing with adjuvants containing bioactive substances. The residual substances may cause cross-contamination to subsequent production batches, affecting product quality. In addition, the aperture size of each screen decreases sequentially, improving the separation effect.
[0027] The drive assembly includes a motor 7 fixed to the bottom of the separation tank 1 by a pair of L-shaped rods. The output end of the motor 7 is provided with a drive rod 8, which is rotatably connected to the bottom of the separation tank 1 and passes through the inner bottom wall of the separation tank 1. A placement groove 9 is provided on the top of the drive rod 8.
[0028] During operation, the motor 7 drives the drive rod 8 to rotate. The rotating rod 5, which is fixed with the rectangular rod 6, can be placed in the placement slot 9. This allows for limiting the rotation and makes the rotating rod 5 rotate simultaneously with the drive rod 8, making it convenient for staff to remove the rotating rod 5.
[0029] The positioning assembly includes a set of first grooves 10 opened on the first circular block 4. The bottom of the first groove 10 is fixed to the positioning block 12 by a spring 11, and the positioning block 12 is slidably connected in the first groove 10. A set of positioning grooves 13 are opened on the inner circular wall of the rotating ring 3.
[0030] During operation, the first circular block 4 can be fixed in position by locking the locking block 12 into the locking groove 13, and fixed to the rotating ring 3. The rotating ring 3 rotates on the inner circular wall of the fixed ring 2, which does not affect the rotation of the rotating rod 5.
[0031] The release assembly includes a set of guide rods 14 fixed to the top of the first circular block 4, a second circular block 15 slidably connected to the set of guide rods 14, and a handle 16 fixed to the top of the second circular block 15.
[0032] A set of first concave blocks 17 are fixed to the bottom of the second circular block 15, and a connecting rod 18 is rotatably connected between the opposite sidewalls of the first concave blocks 17 via a first rotating shaft.
[0033] The top of the first circular block 4 has a set of rectangular through slots 19, the top of the locking block 12 is fixedly connected to the second concave block 20, and the end of the connecting rod 18 away from the first concave block 17 is rotatably connected between the opposite side walls of the second concave block 20 through the second rotating shaft.
[0034] During operation, by pulling the handle 16 upwards, the second circular block 15 can be moved upwards by a set of guide rods 14. Through the connection of the connecting rod 18, the first concave block 17 can pull the second concave block 20 to move, thereby causing the locking block 12 to retract and move the locking block 12 out of the locking groove 13, releasing the first circular block 4. This allows the rotating rod 5 to be pulled out of the placement groove 9, and the rotating rod 5 and filter screen can be removed for cleaning. The rotating rod 5 can be removed quickly, the operation is simple, and the cleaning efficiency is improved.
[0035] Working principle: The first circular block 4 is fixed in position by the locking component, and the first circular block 4 can be released by the release component, so that the rotating rod 5 and a set of filter screens can be removed for cleaning. This solves the significant problems in cleaning and maintenance in the existing technology. The internal structure cleaning process of these separation devices is cumbersome and time-consuming, especially when dealing with adjuvants containing bioactive substances. The residual substances may cause cross-contamination to subsequent production batches, affecting product quality. In addition, the pore size of each screen decreases sequentially, which improves the separation effect.
[0036] The motor 7 drives the drive rod 8 to rotate. The rotating rod 5, which is fixed with the rectangular rod 6, can be placed in the placement slot 9. The rotation rod 5 can be limited and rotated simultaneously with the drive rod 8, making it convenient for staff to take out the rotating rod 5.
[0037] By locking the first circular block 4 into the locking groove 13 using the locking block 12, the position of the first circular block 4 can be fixed and fixed to the rotating ring 3. The rotating ring 3 rotates on the inner wall of the fixed ring 2, which does not affect the rotation of the rotating rod 5.
[0038] By having the operator pull the handle 16 upwards, the second circular block 15 can be moved upwards by a set of guide rods 14. Through the connection of the connecting rod 18, the first concave block 17 can pull the second concave block 20 to move, thereby causing the locking block 12 to retract and move the locking block 12 out of the locking groove 13, releasing the first circular block 4. This allows the rotating rod 5 to be pulled out of the placement groove 9, and the rotating rod 5 and filter screen can be removed for cleaning. The rotating rod 5 can be removed quickly, the operation is simple, and the cleaning efficiency is improved.
