Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical technology, specifically to a device for the incremental mixing of donepezil hydrochloride tablets. Background Technology
[0002] Donepezil hydrochloride tablets are a widely used drug for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The quality of the tablets directly affects the efficacy of the drug and the safety of patients. Since the clinical dose of donepezil hydrochloride is usually small, while the excipients (such as starch, microcrystalline cellulose, etc.) account for a large proportion, direct mixing may lead to uneven distribution of the active ingredient and affect the uniformity of the tablet content.
[0003] Therefore, in the formulation production process, the equal-volume incremental mixing method is usually used to mix the pharmaceutical raw materials. By gradually increasing the mixing volume, the trace amounts of active pharmaceutical ingredient and excipients are fully dispersed, thereby avoiding excessively high or low local concentrations. However, if the method of adding the drug in batches is used for mixing, it will not only be time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also increase the risk of introducing external contaminants into the drug during the mixing process each time the feeding tube is opened and closed, which may affect the quality of the finished drug. Therefore, it is necessary to design an automatic equal-volume incremental mixing device for donepezil hydrochloride tablets. Utility Model Content

[0032] Working principle: First, pour the required auxiliary materials into the feeding tank 1. After adding, close the lid of the feeding tank 1 to reduce the possibility of contamination of the auxiliary materials. Then, mix the main materials and auxiliary materials in a 1:1 ratio and pour them into the mixing tank 18 through the feeding pipe 4. After pouring, close the pipe cover of the feeding pipe 4. Then, start the motor 5. The motor 5 mixes the main materials and auxiliary materials through the stirring rod 14. When the main materials and auxiliary materials are added into the mixing tank 18, the weight inside the mixing tank 18 increases. As a result, the mixing tank 18 compresses the telescopic rod 20 through the fixing block 19. At this time, the mixing tank 18 drives the baffle 9 to move downward, so that the feed chute on the side of the baffle 9 corresponds to the discharge pipe 24. Through the discharge pipe 24 and the feeding tank 1, the mixing tank 20 can be pre-filled. When the weight of the raw materials in the mixing tank 18 increases, it is necessary to... To facilitate the downward feeding of subsequent materials, as the baffle 9 moves downward, its side gradually blocks the feed pipe 24, thus stopping the addition of auxiliary materials. After the raw materials in the mixing tank 18 are mixed, the electric moving wheel 23 at the bottom of the mixing tank 18 is activated. The electric moving wheel 23 uses friction to drive the opening and closing plate 21 to rotate through the moving track 16, thereby opening the feed trough of the mixing tank 18. When the raw materials are fed from the mixing tank 18 into the mixing tank 20, the mass inside the mixing tank 18 is reduced. Under the action of the spring 17, the mixing tank 18 drives the baffle 9 to move upward. After the feed pipe 24 resumes feeding, it moves upward again with the baffle 9. When the feed pipe 24 leaves the feed trough, the supply of auxiliary materials stops. At this time, the raw materials are mixed in the mixing tank 20.
[0033] The mixing situation inside the mixing tank 3 12 is the same as above. When the mixing tank 2 10 is being filled, the auxiliary materials are added through the feeding pipe 2 3 and the feeding tank 1 from the feeding trough on the side of the baffle 2 11. After the raw materials are mixed, the mixed raw materials can be discharged by opening the opening and closing plate 22 at the bottom of the mixing tank 3 12.
