Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical preparation reaction vessels, and in particular to a reaction vessel for preparing pharmaceutical intermediates. Background Technology
[0002] As a core piece of equipment in the pharmaceutical industry, reaction vessels used for the preparation of pharmaceutical intermediates bear the brunt of key processes such as drug synthesis, purification, and crystallization. Their design, performance, and application directly impact drug quality, safety, and production efficiency. Pharmaceutical intermediate reaction vessels generally consist of a vessel body, a stirring system, a heating / cooling device, sealing components, a transmission system, and safety accessories. The vessel body is typically made of 316L stainless steel or Hastelloy, with the inner surface mirror-polished to Ra≤0.4μm to eliminate dead zones and meet GMP aseptic requirements. The stirring system is equipped with multi-layer impellers or special stirrers, such as double-layer turbine stirrers, which can achieve dissolved oxygen uniformity ≥95% and shorten dehydration time by 30%. The heat transfer system combines jacketed and coiled designs. The jacket utilizes heat medium circulation to achieve wide temperature range control from -40℃ to 400℃, while the coils are in direct contact with the material, achieving temperature control accuracy of ±0.5℃. The sealing device employs double mechanical seals combined with a nitrogen protection system, with a leakage rate <0.01ml / h, meeting FDA standards. Safety accessories include explosion-proof discs, safety valves, pressure gauges, and over-temperature protection devices to ensure rapid release in case of overpressure / over-temperature.
[0003] Currently, reactors used for preparing pharmaceutical intermediates typically require the input of multiple excipients during actual operation. When a single-input mechanism is used to input these different excipients, a series of problems arise. During each delivery of a different excipient, some of the excipient adheres to the contact area between the input mechanism and the reactor's inner wall. Due to the differences in the properties of the various excipients, it is difficult to completely remove the residual excipients adhering to the inner wall and the input mechanism.
[0004] Such inadequate cleanliness can have numerous negative impacts on subsequent production processes. Firstly, residual excipients may chemically react with newly introduced excipients, altering their chemical properties and affecting the quality and purity of pharmaceutical intermediates, ultimately leading to products that do not meet quality standards. Secondly, the continuous accumulation of residual excipients can clog the input channels, hindering normal excipient transport and reducing production efficiency. Furthermore, prolonged incomplete cleaning can cause corrosion of the reactor's inner wall and input mechanisms, shortening equipment lifespan and increasing production costs for the company. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a reaction vessel for the preparation of pharmaceutical intermediates, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A reaction vessel for preparing pharmaceutical intermediates includes a reaction vessel body, a sealing cover, and interfaces. The sealing cover is fixed to the reaction vessel body by bolts, and multiple interfaces are located on the side wall, bottom, and top of the sealing cover of the reaction vessel body, respectively. The sealing cap is connected to a main liquid inlet pipe via an interface. A main pump body for liquid inlet is installed on the main liquid inlet pipe. The main pump body injects the pharmaceutical intermediate into the reactor body. One interface of the reactor body is connected to a secondary packing inlet pipe, and a secondary pump body for excipient input is connected to the secondary packing inlet pipe. The other end of the secondary pump body is connected to a secondary packing delivery pipe, thereby realizing the input of the main liquid and packing into the reactor. Another interface of the reactor body is connected to a connecting pipe via a docking pipe. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to a backwash infusion pipe. The backwash infusion pipe is connected to the auxiliary packing infusion pipe via the connecting pipe and the connecting pipe. The other end of the backwash infusion pipe is connected to a backwash pump. The other end of the backwash pump is connected to a backwash inlet pipe. The backwash system performs backwashing operations on the auxiliary packing system and the reactor.
[0007] In a further preferred embodiment, the bottom of the reactor body is connected to a drain pipe via an interface, and a butterfly valve is connected to the drain pipe to discharge the mixture from the reactor body. In a further preferred embodiment, the interface is a connecting flange, and a sealing ring is attached to the connecting flange by adhesive. The reactor body, the sealing cover and the interface in contact with it are welded and fixed. The sealing cover and the reactor body are fixed by bolts, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the sealing cover and the reactor body. In a further preferred embodiment, butterfly valves are connected to both the main liquid inlet pipe and the main pump body pipe. The flow rate of the pharmaceutical intermediate preparation mixture input into the main liquid inlet pipe is controlled by the butterfly valves. Another butterfly valve is installed on the auxiliary packing inlet pipe to control the input of the auxiliary packing. In a further preferred embodiment, the cross-section of the auxiliary packing infusion pipe, the connecting pipe, and the connecting pipe is designed in an "I" shape, and a butterfly valve is provided on the connecting pipe to achieve communication between the auxiliary packing infusion pipe and the connecting pipe. In a further preferred embodiment, the backwash inlet pipe is connected to the backwash storage tank, and butterfly valves are installed on the backwash inlet pipe and the backwash delivery pipe, while a flow meter is installed on the backwash delivery pipe.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By incorporating the auxiliary packing inlet pipe, auxiliary pump body, and auxiliary packing delivery pipe, the main liquid and packing are simultaneously introduced into the reactor. This ensures the timely and accurate supply of excipients during the reaction process, facilitating the smooth progress of the reaction according to the predetermined ratio and conditions, and improving the efficiency and product quality of pharmaceutical intermediate preparation reactions.
[0009] The backwashing system, through its components such as backwash inlet pipes, connecting pipes, link pipes, and backwash pumps, effectively backwashes the auxiliary packing system and reactor. This helps remove residual reactants and impurities from the system, keeping it clean, preventing pipe blockage and equipment corrosion, thereby extending equipment lifespan and ensuring the efficient execution of subsequent reactions.
[0010] The combined effect of the auxiliary packing system and the backwashing system enables precise control of excipients during the reaction and thorough cleaning of the system after the reaction. On the one hand, the auxiliary packing system ensures the accuracy of the reaction ratios and improves product quality; on the other hand, the backwashing system thoroughly cleans the system after the reaction, providing favorable conditions for the next reaction. This combined effect improves the stability and reliability of the entire pharmaceutical intermediate preparation process, reduces production costs, and contributes to environmental protection and sustainable development.

These butterfly valves allow for precise control of the flow rate of the pharmaceutical intermediate preparation mixture entering the main liquid inlet pipe 4. Another butterfly valve is installed on the auxiliary packing inlet pipe 6 to control the input flow rate of the auxiliary packing, ensuring the accuracy of the reaction ratio.
[0020] The cross-sections of the auxiliary packing infusion pipe 8, the connecting pipe 9, and the connecting pipe 13 are designed in an "I" shape. This design not only enhances the strength of the pipes but also optimizes fluid flow. A butterfly valve is installed on the connecting pipe 9, which can control the connection status between the auxiliary packing infusion pipe 8 and the connecting pipe 13.
[0021] The backwash inlet pipe 11 is connected to the backwash storage tank.

In addition, a flow meter is installed on the backwash delivery pipe 12 to monitor the flow rate of the backwash fluid in real time, ensuring the accuracy and effectiveness of the backwash operation.
[0022] Place the reactor body 1 in a suitable position. Next, secure the sealing cover 2 tightly to the top of the reactor body 1 with bolts, and install a sealing ring at the connection between the sealing cover 2 and the reactor body 1. Then, connect each interface 3 to the reactor body 1 and the sealing cover 2 via connecting flanges, and attach the sealing rings to the connecting flanges with adhesive.
[0023] At one interface 3 on the sealing cap 2, the main liquid inlet pipe 4 is connected, and the main pump body 5 is installed on the main liquid inlet pipe 4.
