Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical production technology, specifically to a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Pharmaceutical manufacturing is a highly standardized process involving strict regulations, quality control, and technical requirements to ensure the safety, efficacy, and consistency of drugs. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the cleaning of packaging bottles (such as vials, oral liquid bottles, infusion bottles, etc.) is a key step in ensuring drug quality and must comply with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) requirements to avoid contamination, cross-contamination, and particulate residue. Currently, most pharmaceutical packaging bottles are cleaned using spray cleaning or soaking. Spray cleaning can only ensure the cleaning quality of the bottle body, while cleaning the inside of the bottle is more difficult due to the limitation of the bottle opening. Soaking cleaning can ensure the cleaning quality of the inside of the bottle, but it requires a large amount of water resources, resulting in a large energy input and increasing the difficulty of subsequent water treatment, which inconveniences the staff. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment. This solves the problem that most existing pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning methods involve spray cleaning or soaking. Spray cleaning only effectively cleans the bottle body; cleaning the inside of the bottle is difficult due to the limited space at the bottle opening. While soaking can ensure the cleaning quality of the inside, it requires a large amount of water, resulting in high energy consumption and increased difficulty in subsequent water treatment, thus causing inconvenience for operators.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying device, comprising a housing, wherein a cleaning device is provided inside the housing, the cleaning device comprising: a pump body, fixedly connected to one side of the bottom inner wall of the housing, with its output end penetrating through the lower side of one side of the housing; a first conduit connected to the output end of the pump body; a first valve connected to the inner wall of the first conduit; a spray nozzle connected to the end of the first conduit, with its outer wall fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing; and multiple spray nozzles, all connected above the spray nozzle; wherein the pump body draws water from the inner wall of the housing, transports it through the first conduit to the interior of the spray nozzle, and finally sprays it out from the spray nozzles.

[0005] Preferably, a drying device is provided on the lower side of one side of the outer wall of the box. The drying device includes: a fan, which is fixedly connected to the lower side of the outer wall of the box; a second conduit, which is connected to the output end of the fan and its end is connected to one end of the spray nozzle; and a second valve, which is connected to the inner wall of the second conduit. The fan delivers outside air to the inside of the spray nozzle through the second conduit and then blows it into the inside of the packaging bottle through the nozzle.

[0006] Preferably, a partition is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box, a perforated plate is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the box, a drainage hopper is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the box, and a water supply pipe is connected to the lower front of the box.

[0007] Preferably, a lifting device is provided above the box body. The lifting device includes: four bases, all fixedly connected to the outer wall of the box body; multiple electric push rods, each fixedly connected to the top of one of the bases; and two mounting plates, each fixedly connected to the output end of one of the electric push rods. The electric push rods can change the position and height of the mounting plates.

[0008] Preferably, a clamping mechanism is provided above the housing, the clamping mechanism comprising: two servo motors, each fixedly connected to the top of a mounting plate near the pump body; two screws, rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two mounting plates via bearings, and respectively fixedly connected to the output ends of the two servo motors; multiple first clamping plates, each threadedly connected to the outer walls of the two screws; and multiple second clamping plates, each threadedly connected to the outer walls of the two screws, and respectively abutting against the outer walls of the multiple first clamping plates; wherein, the servo motors drive the screws to move the first clamping plates and second clamping plates toward each other. Beneficial effects

[0009] This utility model provides a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying device. It has the following advantages: Through the cooperation of a housing, cleaning device, and lifting device, the pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying device allows the packaging bottle to be placed outside the spray nozzle during cleaning, enabling direct cleaning of the bottle's interior. This effectively ensures the cleaning quality of the packaging bottle and reduces water consumption, thus lowering energy input and reducing the intensity of subsequent water treatment, making it more convenient for operators. With the help of a drying device, the cleaned packaging bottles can be dried quickly. Since the drying method uses increased airflow instead of high-temperature heating, it can effectively prevent the packaging bottles from deforming due to high temperatures, thus ensuring the quality of the packaging bottle processing.

[0012] 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.

[0013] Those skilled in the art can connect the components in this case sequentially. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the working principle described below. The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. The working principle and process are mainly described below.

[0014] Currently, most pharmaceutical packaging bottles are cleaned by spraying or soaking. Spraying can only ensure the cleaning quality of the bottle body. Cleaning the inside of the bottle is difficult due to the limited space at the bottle opening. Soaking can ensure the cleaning quality of the inside of the bottle, but it requires a large amount of water, resulting in a large energy input and increasing the difficulty of subsequent water treatment, which inconveniences the staff. In view of this, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment. Through the cooperation of the box body, cleaning device and lifting device, the packaging bottle can be placed on the outside of the nozzle during cleaning, and the nozzle can be used to directly clean the inside of the packaging bottle, thereby effectively ensuring the cleaning quality of the packaging bottle, and also effectively reducing the amount of water input, thus reducing energy input and the intensity of subsequent water treatment, thereby facilitating the use of the equipment by the staff.

[0015] Example 1: By Figure 1 It is known that a pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment includes a housing 1, and a cleaning device 2 is installed inside the housing 1. The cleaning device 2 includes: a pump body 21, which is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom inner wall of the housing 1, and its output end passes through the lower side of one side of the housing 1; a first conduit 22, which is connected to the output end of the pump body 21; a first valve 23, which is connected to the inner wall of the first conduit 22; a spray nozzle 24, which is connected to the end of the first conduit 22, and its outer wall is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1; and multiple nozzles 25, all of which are connected to the top of the spray nozzle 24. The pump body 21 draws water from the inner wall of the housing 1, transports it through the first conduit 22 to the inside of the spray nozzle 24, and finally sprays it out from the nozzles 25. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the model of the pump body 21 is not limited, as long as it meets the usage requirements. The pump body 21 can draw water from the bottom of the box 1, and then transport it to the inside of the spray nozzle 24 through the first conduit 22. Then, it can be sprayed directly onto the inside of the packaging bottle through the nozzle 25, which can effectively clean the inside of the packaging bottle. When drying, the staff can close the first conduit 22 through the first valve 23 to block the flow of air. Furthermore, a drying device 3 is provided on the lower side of one side of the outer wall of the box 1. The drying device 3 includes: a fan 31, which is fixedly connected to the lower side of the outer wall of the box 1; a second conduit 32, which is connected to the output end of the fan 31 and its end is connected to one end of the spray nozzle 24; and a second valve 33, which is connected to the inner wall of the second conduit 32. The fan 31 delivers outside air to the inside of the spray nozzle 24 through the second conduit 32, and then blows it into the inside of the packaging bottle through the nozzle 25. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that there are no restrictions on the model of the fan 31, as long as it meets the usage requirements. It should be noted that when using it, dust prevention measures should be taken for the air inlet of the fan 31. This can be achieved by installing a filter screen at the air inlet. There are no restrictions on the mesh size and installation method of the filter screen, as long as it meets the usage requirements. It should be noted that the staff should disassemble and clean the filter screen regularly. There are no restrictions on the specific cleaning cycle, which can be determined according to the actual usage situation. The fan 31 can deliver the air filtered by the filter screen to the inside of the spray nozzle 24, and then spray it out from the nozzle 25 to dry the packaging bottle. The setting of the second valve 33 can close the second conduit 32 to block the cleaning water. Furthermore, a partition 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box 1, a perforated plate 7 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the box 1, a drainage hopper 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the box 1, and a water supply pipe 6 is connected to the lower front of the box 1. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the water after cleaning can be discharged from the inside of the box 1 through the drain hopper 8, while the water supply pipe 6 can be used to replenish the inside of the box 1 with external water. Specifically, when using this pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment, during cleaning, the pump body 21 is turned on while the second valve 33 is closed. At this time, the pump body 21 draws water from the bottom of the box 1, which is then transported through the first conduit 22 and enters the spray nozzle 24. Finally, it is sprayed from the nozzle 25 onto the inside of the packaging bottle, allowing for direct cleaning of the bottle's interior. After cleaning, the pump body 21 and the first valve 23 are turned off, and then the second valve 33 is turned on. The blower 31 then transports outside air through the second conduit 32 to the inside of the spray nozzle 24, which is then blown onto the inside of the packaging bottle again through the nozzle 25. This accelerates the airflow inside the packaging bottle, thus drying it.

[0016] Example 2: From Figure 1 , 2 As shown in section 3, a lifting device 4 is provided above the housing 1. The lifting device 4 includes: four bases 41, all fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing 1; multiple electric push rods 42, each fixedly connected to the top of multiple bases 41; and two mounting plates 43, each fixedly connected to the output end of two electric push rods 42. The electric push rods 42 can change the position and height of the mounting plates 43. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that there is no restriction on the model of the electric actuator 42, as long as it meets the usage requirements. It should be noted that a synchronizer should be set between multiple electric actuators 42. The synchronizer is then used to control the synchronous movement of multiple electric actuators 42. One actuator is designated as the master device, and the others are slave devices. The movement command of the master actuator is transmitted to the slave actuators in real time through the synchronizer. The slave actuators strictly follow the movement of the master actuator. The actual position / speed of each actuator is monitored in real time through encoders, potentiometers or Hall sensors, and the data is fed back to the synchronizer to form a closed-loop control. The position and height of the clamping mechanism 5 can be changed by the mounting plate 43 of the electric actuator 42. Specifically, when using the pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment, if it is necessary to change the position height of the clamping mechanism 5, the electric push rod 42 is activated. At this time, the electric push rod 42 can change the height of the mounting plate 43, thereby changing the position height of the clamping mechanism 5.

[0017] Example 3: From Figure 1 , 2 As can be seen from points 3, 4, and 5, a clamping mechanism 5 is provided on the top of the housing 1. The clamping mechanism 5 includes: two servo motors 51, both fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 43 near the pump body 21; two screws 52, which are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two mounting plates 43 via bearings, and are fixedly connected to the output ends of the two servo motors 51; multiple first clamping plates 53, which are threadedly connected to the outer walls of the two screws 52; and multiple second clamping plates 54, which are threadedly connected to the outer walls of the two screws 52 and are respectively in contact with the outer walls of the multiple first clamping plates 53. The servo motors 51 drive the screws 52 to move the first clamping plates 53 and the second clamping plates 54 toward each other. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the model of the servo motor 51 is not limited, as long as it meets the usage requirements. It should be noted that a synchronizer should be set between the two servo motors 51 so that the synchronizer can control the two servo motors 51 to move synchronously. Each servo motor is equipped with a high-precision encoder, which can detect its own operating status in real time (such as current speed and actual position) and feed this data back to the synchronizer in real time. When a difference is detected between the two motors, the synchronizer will fine-tune the control signal of one or both motors according to a preset synchronization algorithm (such as proportional-integral-derivative control, i.e., PID algorithm). For example, if the speed of motor B is slightly slower, the synchronizer will send an "acceleration" signal to the driver of motor B, and may also fine-tune the speed of motor A to make the two quickly converge. The outer wall of the screw 52 is machined with multiple sets of opposing threads, so that when the screw 52 rotates, the first clamping plate 53 and the second clamping plate 54 move towards each other. Specifically, when using the pharmaceutical packaging bottle cleaning and drying equipment, the staff places the packaging bottle between the first clamping plate 53 and the second clamping plate 54, and then turns on the servo motor 51. The servo motor 51 drives the screw 52 to rotate, which in turn drives the first clamping plate 53 and the second clamping plate 54 to move towards each other, thereby clamping and limiting the packaging bottle to prevent it from falling off during cleaning and drying.
