Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solution preparation technology, specifically to a dissolution and mixing tank that can be rapidly cooled. Background Technology

[0002] In the pharmaceutical processing field, the thorough integration of solute and solution is a crucial step in ensuring drug quality and efficacy, and the dissolution efficiency directly affects the overall preparation progress. Currently, to improve the solute integration efficiency in the solution, the industry commonly uses heating of the dissolving tank. This is because heating can change the physical properties of the solution, effectively increasing its specific heat capacity, thereby accelerating the movement of solute molecules, promoting the interaction between the solute and the solution, and allowing the solute to dissolve into the solution more quickly and completely, significantly improving the initial efficiency of drug preparation to a certain extent. However, this method of relying on heating to improve dissolution efficiency requires corresponding cooling processes. After the heating process, the dissolving tank and the solution inside are at a high temperature, while subsequent solvent processing often has specific temperature requirements, necessitating the solution to be in a suitable ambient or lower temperature environment. Therefore, the industry typically uses water cooling to treat the heated dissolving tank and solution. This involves circulating tap water in a dedicated channel to exchange heat with the high-temperature solution, achieving rapid cooling. However, this water cooling method has significant technical drawbacks. During water cooling, the residual heat of the dissolving tank and solution exchanges heat with the flowing tap water. In this process, hot steam or residual heat causes minerals in the tap water to precipitate, forming scale that adheres to the water cooling channels, heat exchange pipes, and other flow paths. As scale accumulates in these channels, the flow resistance of the tap water increases, compressing the heat exchange area between the hot steam and the tap water, resulting in a significant decrease in heat transfer efficiency. This not only slows down the rate of solution heating and prolongs the time required for solute dissolution, but also makes it difficult to quickly remove heat from the solution during cooling, hindering the efficient reduction of the solution temperature to the appropriate range required for subsequent processing. This severely impacts the overall effectiveness of the heating and cooling processes. Utility Model Content

[0003] The objective of this invention is to address the problem in existing technologies where tap water is used for accelerated cooling, leading to scale buildup and affecting the cooling or heating efficiency of both tap water and hot steam. This invention provides a dissolving and mixing tank capable of rapid cooling. To overcome the shortcomings of the aforementioned technology, the technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: A dissolving and mixing tank capable of rapid cooling, comprising a dissolving tank for dissolving a solute into a solution, and a conductive component on the outer periphery of the dissolving tank capable of alternately transmitting hot steam and tap water through its periphery; the conductive component includes a protective shell fixed to the outer periphery of the dissolving tank, forming a conductive cavity between the protective shell and the dissolving tank, a discharge component extending through the protective shell connected to the bottom of the conductive cavity, a transmission component passing through the protective shell connected to the outer periphery of the conductive cavity, and a three-way solenoid valve output connected to the transmission component, with the three-way solenoid valve input connected to a steam input pipe and a tap water pipe; a deformable metal layer is provided on the inner wall of the conductive cavity, which expands and contracts with temperature during the alternating transmission of hot steam and tap water in the conductive cavity, thus breaking up the scale residue remaining after the tap water passes through. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: multiple protrusions are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the deformable metal layer, and two sets of protrusions are staggered. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: the inner diameter of the transmission component is more than twice the inner diameter of the discharge component. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: the material of the deformable metal layer is aluminum. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: the material of the deformable metal layer is copper. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: multiple reinforcing columns passing through the deformable metal layer are uniformly provided between the protective shell and the outer circumference of the melting tank. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: an air-filled heat insulation cavity is opened inside the outer wall of the protective shell, and multiple reinforcing columns are uniformly provided inside the heat insulation cavity. As a further optimization of the rapidly cooling melting and mixing tank of this utility model: asbestos sleeves are fitted on both the steam input pipe and the transmission component. Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: By incorporating a conductive component, including a protective shell around the dissolving tank, this invention reduces the potential risk of injury to workers from overheating of the tank's outer perimeter. Simultaneously, the protective shell contains a deformable metal layer. During the circulation of hot steam and room-temperature tap water, the thermal expansion and contraction caused by the intermittent passage of hot steam and tap water breaks down the scale adhering to the inner wall of the deformable metal layer. This facilitates the subsequent flushing of the broken scale out of the conductive cavity by the hot steam and tap water, thereby reducing the impact of scale accumulation on heating and cooling effects. This invention also connects the steam input pipe and the tap water pipe within the dissolving tank via a conductive component, and allows for connection of a discharge component at the bottom.Hot steam and tap water circulate through the conductive components and then exit from the discharge component, thereby achieving sequential heating and cooling of the dissolving tank. This effectively improves the efficiency of solute dissolution and solvent cooling after mixing, ensuring the stability of the overall solvent processing efficiency. This invention utilizes staggered protrusions within the deformable metal layer to adjust the size of the conductive cavity during thermal expansion and contraction, increasing the difficulty of hot steam passage and fully utilizing its heat to heat the dissolving tank. Simultaneously, it reduces resistance and increases the cooling rate when tap water passes through, ensuring the stability of the tap water carrying scale as it exits from the discharge component.

[0005] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments further illustrate its content; however, the content of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments. Figure 1 As shown, a rapidly cooling dissolving and mixing tank includes a dissolving tank 3 for temporary storage of pharmaceuticals. The dissolving tank 3 is externally equipped with a conductive element 2. The input end of the conductive element 2 is connected to a steam input pipe 4 and a tap water pipe 5, while its output end is connected to a discharge outlet 7. When it is necessary to heat the dissolving tank 3 and the solute and solution inside to improve the efficiency of solute dissolution, the operator can open the steam input pipe 4 and close the tap water pipe 5. Subsequently, the hot steam output from the steam input pipe 4 is guided by the conductive element 2 to flow stably around the outer periphery of the dissolving tank 3 and finally discharged from the discharge outlet 7. This process achieves uniform heating of the dissolving tank 3 and the solution inside, thereby increasing the specific heat capacity of the solution and accelerating the solute dissolution process. After a certain heating time, when the solute is completely dissolved in the solution, the cooling treatment of the pharmaceuticals becomes crucial for subsequent solvent processing. At this time, the operator needs to close the steam input pipe 4 and open the tap water pipe 5. Room temperature tap water then passes through the outer periphery of the dissolving tank 3, absorbs heat, and is discharged from the discharge outlet 7. This process effectively reduces the internal temperature of the dissolving tank 3, ensuring the overall efficiency of solvent processing. The working principle of this dissolving and mixing tank lies in the orderly circulation of hot steam and tap water through the conductive component 2, thereby precisely controlling the temperature of the dissolving tank 3 and its internal solution. The design of the conductive component 2 not only improves the efficiency of heating and cooling but also ensures operational stability and reliability. Figure 2As shown, the core component of the conductive element 2 is a protective shell 201 fixed to the outer periphery of the dissolving tank 3. The protective shell 201 is connected to the output port of the three-way solenoid valve 9 via the transmission element 6, while the input port of the three-way solenoid valve 9 is connected to the steam input pipe 4 and the tap water pipe 5 respectively. This design allows the operator to easily switch between heating and cooling modes by controlling the three-way solenoid valve 9. Both the steam input pipe 4 and the transmission element 6 are covered with asbestos sleeves to reduce burns caused by accidental contact by workers. A conductive cavity 207 is formed between the protective shell 201 and the dissolving tank 3. The inner wall of the conductive cavity 207 is covered with a deformable metal layer 202, and the conductive cavity 207 through which the heated steam or tap water passes is formed within the deformable metal layer 202. During the circulation of hot steam and tap water, the deformable metal layer 202 undergoes thermal expansion and contraction due to alternating hot and cold temperatures. This physical change not only helps to remove scale residue in the tap water caused by residual heat from the hot steam, but also improves the efficiency of the heating and cooling process. Specifically, the deformable metal layer 202 can be made of aluminum or copper, which have high deformation rate and thermal conductivity, or other metal materials with high deformation rate and thermal conductivity. The inner and outer walls of the deformable metal layer 202 are provided with staggered protrusions 203. When the deformable metal layer 202 expands thermally, these protrusions 203 reduce the passage gap inside the conduction cavity 207, prolonging the residence time of hot steam in the conduction cavity 207, thereby ensuring that the hot steam can stably and fully heat the dissolving tank 3. When the deformable metal layer 202 contracts thermally, the protrusions 203 increase the space inside the conduction cavity 207, accommodating more tap water to absorb the heat inside the dissolving tank 3, and accelerating the flow rate of tap water to further increase the cooling rate of the dissolving tank 3. It also allows the tap water to stably carry scale through and be discharged from the discharge part 7. Furthermore, the inner diameter of the transmission component 6 is two or three times that of the discharge component 7, a design that extends the residence time of hot steam and tap water within the protective shell 201. This fully utilizes the heat of the hot steam and the heat absorption effect of the tap water, further enhancing the rapid heating and cooling capabilities of the dissolving tank 3. To reduce the temperature of the outer periphery of the protective shell 201 and prevent accidental injury to operators, a heat insulation cavity 205 is provided on the outer wall of the protective shell 201. This heat insulation cavity 205 utilizes the low thermal conductivity of air to effectively reduce the temperature. Simultaneously, multiple reinforcing columns 204 are provided between the protective shell 201 and the inner wall of the dissolving tank 3 to maintain its structural strength and support the position of the dissolving tank 3. Multiple reinforcing columns 206 are also evenly distributed within the heat insulation cavity 205 to enhance the overall structural stability of the protective shell 201. Three supporting legs 1 are evenly provided at the bottom of the protective shell 201, and each supporting leg 1 is fixedly fitted with a foot plate 8. This design allows operators to easily and stably position the protective shell 201 and the dissolving tank 3 in a suitable location for use. The three-way solenoid valve 9 has flanges at both the input and output ends to facilitate installation and disassembly by operators, thereby completing the corresponding installation and repair.One end of the input component is fixedly disposed within the protective shell 201 and communicates with the conduction cavity 207 formed within the deformable metal layer 202. The other end of the input component is provided with another flange, so that the operator can connect the transmission component 6 to the three-way solenoid valve 9. The specific structure, model, and operating method of the three-way solenoid valve 9 should be understood as prior art. The specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications or variations within the scope of the claims, which do not affect the substantive content of this utility model.
