Then, as opening and closing operation s02 shown in Fig. 5, by the control of control unit 14, it is opened and closed each point as follows Every portion and valve.
Hothouse 11: open
First lattice 21: open
Second lattice 23: open
First switching valve 22: close
Second switching valve 24: close
Then, as the sterilization process s03 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s02, that is, open the One lattice 21 with the second lattice 23 so that in the state of hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 connect with the second de-watering section 30, By the control of control unit 14, from the mechanism 19 supply steam that cleans and sterilize.Thus, to hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 Sterilized with the inside of the second de-watering section 30.
The part that exposed for the pharmaceutical preparation as dried object f1 is it is necessary to ensure that integral asepsis.Therefore, Mei Dangkai During beginning medicament production process, as the front operation of medicament production process, carry out steam sterilization operation s03.Jelly towards pharmaceuticals Sterilizing required for knot drying device refers to by exposing more than 20 minutes and eliminating bacteria in the steam more than 122 DEG C.
Pressure in this steam sterilization operation be 210kpa about, 220kpa~240kpa.In fact, as steam Sterilization process s03, will maintain three hours about at high temperature inside device.
Now, in order to tolerate this temperature, the pipe for cooling flow of media of the first cold-trap 17 is configured to by making cooling Unit 17c drives operating to keep less than 70 DEG C.
Equally, in order to tolerate this temperature, the cryopanel 38a of the second cold-trap 38 is configured in heating by making mechanical type Fridge 38b drives and operates and less than 70 DEG C of mechanical type fridge 38b holding.In the past, when the cryotrap being used is arrived From during the heat transfer of cryopanel 38a, the heat resisting temperature of mechanical type fridge 38b is 70 DEG C, and thus described cryotrap is maintained at machine Below the heat resisting temperature of tool formula fridge 38b.In addition, also improving the thermostability of mechanical type fridge 38b.
Then, as matting s04 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s02, that is, open the One lattice 21 with the second lattice 23 so that in the state of hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 connect with the second de-watering section 30, By the control of control unit 14, supply the pure water for cleaning and meeting required standard from cleaning and sterilizing mechanism 19.Thus, The inside of hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 and the second de-watering section 30 is carried out.With other manufacture fields such as quasiconductors Vacuum equipment is different, to be cleaned by watering to the inside of device.It is therefore preferable that hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 and second are de- The inside in water portion 30 is the structure as far as possible not accumulating water.
Then, as the predry drying process s05 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s02, that is, opening First lattice 21 is with the second lattice 23 so that the state that connects with the second de-watering section 30 of hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 Under, the first cold-trap 17 is driven by the control of control unit 14, with to hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 and the second de-watering section 30 carry out predrying, thus removing rinse water.Now, the register (thermoregulative mechanism) of shelf 11a can be passed through, to hothouse 11 Inside heated.
In predry drying process s05, control unit 14 makes coolant in the first cold-trap by driving the first cooling unit 17c Circulate in 17, and open the first lattice 21, the second lattice 23 and the first switching valve 22 and close the second switching valve 24, lead to Overdrive vacuum pump 15 and exclude the gas in hothouse 11 via the first de-watering section 12 as first exhaust path.Thus, The moisture evaporation of inside because of the pressure drop of hothouse 11, the first de-watering section 12 and the second de-watering section 30.Vacuum pump 15 via The gas of the inside of the hothouse 11 containing vapor, the first de-watering section 12 and the second de-watering section 30 is aspirated in first exhaust path. Vapor is trapped by the first cold-trap 17.
Additionally, in predry drying process s05, preferably do not drive the second cold-trap 38, but because of second exhaust operation described later S11 and exclude in subsequent handling in situation of moisture within the second de-watering section 30 etc. however it is not limited to this.
Then, as opening and closing operation s06 shown in Fig. 5, by the control of control unit 14, it is opened and closed each point as follows Every portion and valve.
Hothouse 11: open
First lattice 21: open
Second lattice 23: close
First switching valve 22: close
Second switching valve 24: close
Then, as collecting operation s07 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s06, that is, open the So that while hothouse 11 connects with the first de-watering section 12, closing the second lattice 23 is so that the second de-watering section for one lattice 21 In the state of 30 independences, dried object f1 is moved in hothouse 11.
Then, as opening and closing operation s08 shown in Fig. 5, by the control of control unit 14, it is opened and closed each point as follows Every portion and valve.
Hothouse 11: close
First lattice 21: open
Second lattice 23: close
First switching valve 22: open
Second switching valve 24: close
Then, as the first drying process s09 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s08, that is, opening Put the first lattice 21 so that while hothouse 11 connects with the first de-watering section 12, closing the second lattice 23 is so that second is de- In the state of water portion 30 independence, the first cold-trap 17 is driven by the control of control unit 14, with de- to hothouse 11 and first The inside in water portion 12 particularly hothouse 11 carries out freeze-dried.Thus, because under the pressure of hothouse 11 and the first de-watering section 12 Drop and the moisture evaporation of inside.Vacuum pump 15 aspirates the gas in the hothouse 11 containing vapor via first exhaust path. Vapor is trapped by the first cold-trap 17.
The non-condensing gases such as the nitrogen from the gas of hothouse 11 suction are aspirated without in the first cold-trap by vacuum pump 15 Condense in 17.Freeze the test portion f1 being placed on shelf 11a by depriving evaporation latent heat from moisture.
The temperature of the first cold-trap 17 in the first drying process s09 is set to -40 DEG C about.
Then, as heat drying operation s10 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s08, that is, opening Put the first lattice 21 so that while hothouse 11 connects with the first de-watering section 12, closing the second lattice 23 is so that second is de- In the state of water portion 30 independence, the register 11b being arranged at each shelf 11a is driven by the control of control unit 14 (thermoregulative mechanism).
Heater (thermoregulative mechanism) 11b by the shelf 11a in hothouse 11 is heated to 20 DEG C and to being placed on shelf Test portion f1 on 11a is heated, and thus promotes the drying of test portion f1.In heated test portion f1, contained ice is from this test portion Obtain latent heat in f1, and vapor is become by distillation.
Vacuum pump 15 aspirates the gas in the hothouse 11 containing this vapor via first exhaust path.By vacuum pump 15 Vapor in the gas of suction discharges latent heat on the surface of the first cold-trap 17, and becomes ice by condensing, by this vapor Trapped by the first cold-trap 17.The non-condensing gas such as nitrogen from the gas of hothouse 11 suction by vacuum pump 15 aspirate without Condense in first cold-trap 17.
By proceeding the bleeding of the hothouse 11 being carried out by vacuum pump 15, thus hothouse 11 reaches vacuum pump 15 have reach pressure.In addition, because set point in hothouse 11 for the vapor declines and the trapping energy of the first cold-trap 17 Power is deteriorated, thus the vacuum in hothouse 11 rises stopping.If the vacuum in hothouse 11 rises stopped, test portion f1 In contained ice cannot distil.As a result, because contained ice in test portion f1 in the case of not distilled will not be from Latent heat is obtained, the temperature of test portion f1 rises therefore by the heat effect of heater 11b in solid material.It is arranged on shelf The surface temperature of the test portion f1 that the temperature sensor 11c detection on 11a is heated by heater 11b, and the temperature detecting is made Export in control unit 14 for detection signal.
Meanwhile, by proceeding the bleeding of hothouse 11 being carried out by vacuum pump 15, thus in hothouse 11 Vacuum rises and stops.Now, the measurement indicated value of the measurement indicated value of piezometer 26 and piezometer 27 is exported control single In unit 14, wherein, described piezometer 26 is can not surveyed by affect by the measurement indicated value that the species of measurement gas causes First vacuometer of amount stagnation pressure, described piezometer 27 is can measure the vacuometer of stagnation pressure and be because measuring gas using conduction of heat The species of body and measure indicated value produce difference the second vacuometer.
Control unit 14 is to the measurement indicated value in the hothouse 11 being measured by described first vacuometer 26 and true by second Measurement indicated value in the hothouses 11 of empty meter 27 measurement is compared, and when detecting that the difference of measurement indicated value converges to minimum Between.By being compared to the difference of the measurement indicated value in these first vacuometers and the second vacuometer, by this measurement indicated value Difference converge to the minimum time and be judged as terminal acknowledging time is dried, thus under the second vacuometer is measured in indicative curve Fall point of inflexion on a curve time detecting is that terminal acknowledging time is dried.
Meanwhile, control unit 14, based on the detection signal from temperature sensor 11c, detects the surface temperature of test portion f1 Equal with the heating-up temperature of heater 11b and reach the upper limit.
Then, as differentiation operation s12 shown in Fig. 5, be judged as reaching terminal acknowledging time and/or the upper limit are dried when Between in the case of, control unit 14 is judged as the terminal time that this time is heat drying operation s10, wherein, described dry eventually Point acknowledging time is by the measurement indicated value from piezometer 26,27 is compared with the time detecting, the described upper limit Time is surface temperature and the heater 11b of the test portion f1 being detected based on the detection signal from temperature sensor 11c The temperature equal time.Now, first, after closing the first lattice 21, stop the driving of the first cold-trap 17.If additionally, Close the first lattice 21, then the open and-shut mode of the first switching valve 22 can be any state.
Then, as opening and closing operation s13 shown in Fig. 5, by the control of control unit 14, it is opened and closed each point as follows Every portion and valve.
Hothouse 11: close
First lattice 21: close
Second lattice 23: open
First switching valve 22: close
Second switching valve 24: open
Then, as the second drying process s14 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s13, that is, opening Put the second lattice 23 so that while hothouse 11 connects with the second de-watering section 30, closing the first lattice 21 is so that first is de- In the state of water portion 12 independence, the second cold-trap 38 is driven by the control of control unit 14, with de- to hothouse 11 and second The inside in water portion 30 particularly hothouse 11 carries out freeze-dried.
Thus, the moisture evaporation of inside because of the pressure drop of hothouse 11 and the second de-watering section 30.Turbomolecular pump 16 Aspirate the gas in the hothouse 11 containing vapor via second exhaust path.Vapor is by the low temperature cold as the second cold-trap Trap 38 traps.
Meanwhile, the pressure in pressure p 1 and the cryopanel 38a side space in hothouse 11 side space is realized by orifice plate 33 The pressure ratio of p2 meets
P2 (pressure of cryopanel 38a side)/p1 (pressure of hothouse 11 side)≤0.1
P1 > p2
Condition critical pressure ratio, thus, it is possible to stable and constant exhaust velocity is realized by cryotrap 38.
Now, for cryopanel 38a is positioned at the surface of hothouse 11 side, water (hydrone) can be in cryopanel 38a Face in by equably coagulation, and make ice coagulation on the surface of cryopanel 38a, with fill up orifice plate 33 and cryopanel 38a it Between the space apart from d.Equally it is also possible to make ice in the back side coagulation of cryopanel 38a.Additionally, orifice plate 33 need not be cooled to With cryopanel 38a identical degree, but the state after cooling also can be become.
Additionally, heater 11b and turbomolecular pump 16 are set as lasting driving condition from heat drying operation s10.Separately Outward it is also possible to before the second lattice 23 is open, start the driving of cryotrap 38.
The temperature of cryotrap 38 is less than the temperature of the first cold-trap 17, for example, be set to -100 DEG C about.
The second cold-trap 38 being cooled to -100 DEG C traps to the vapor not trapped by the first cold-trap 17.Adjoint This, the pressure drop of hothouse 11.Thus, restart to remain in the distillation of the ice in test portion f1.Remain in test portion f1 Ice is distilled by obtaining latent heat from test portion f1, the surface release of the vapor of the generation cryopanel 38a in the second cold-trap 38 Latent heat simultaneously condenses and becomes ice, thus being trapped by the second cold-trap 38.It is dried by this polish, heated drying process can be made S10 dried test portion f1 is dried further, and improves the final aridity of test portion f1, so that moisture content declines two Number.Additionally, with respect to the water removing in the first drying process s09 using the first de-watering section 12 and heat drying operation s10 Point, the moisture removing in the second drying process s14 using the second de-watering section 30 is 1% about i.e. 5kg.
Then, as airtight operation s16 shown in Fig. 5, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s13, that is, open the So that while hothouse 11 connects with the second de-watering section 30, closing the first lattice 21 is so that the first de-watering section in two compartment portion 23 In the state of 12 independences, by the control of control unit 14, using obturator (not shown) (closure mechanism) to dried object It is airtight etc. airtight to carry out that f1 implements aluminum.
Then, as opening and closing operation s17 shown in Fig. 5, by the control of control unit 14, it is opened and closed each point as follows Every portion and valve.
Hothouse 11: open
First lattice 21: close
Second lattice 23: close
First switching valve 22: close
Second switching valve 24: close
Then, as removal process s18 shown in Fig. 5, take out moisture content from hothouse 11 and be reduced to the expectation state simultaneously Dried object f1 that dried terminates, thus terminate the dried in this batch.
Additionally, as shown in figure 5, in part or all of the first drying process s09 and heat drying operation s10, making For second exhaust operation s11, in the state of being set by opening and closing operation s08, that is, in open first lattice 21 so that hothouse 11 while connect with the first de-watering section 12, and closing the second lattice 23 is so that in the state of the second de-watering section 30 independence, pass through Open the second switching valve 24, exclusion becomes the gas in the second de-watering section 30 of this separate state, thus will be by the second cold-trap 38 The moisture of trapping is rejected to outside.Thereby, it is possible to immediately begin to the freeze-dried operation of next batch.
Equally, in part or all of the second drying process s14 shown in Fig. 5, as first exhaust operation s15, In the state of being set by opening and closing operation s13, that is, in open second lattice 23 so that hothouse 11 and the second de-watering section 30 connect While logical, closing the first lattice 21 is so that in the state of the first de-watering section 12 independence, by opening the first switching valve 22, arrange Except the gas becoming in the first de-watering section 12 of this separate state, thus outer by being rejected to by the moisture that the first cold-trap 17 traps Portion.Thereby, it is possible to immediately begin to the freeze-dried operation of next batch.
In the present embodiment, one of two cold-traps allowing hand over 17,38 are made to become independent cryotrap 38, And by arranging orifice plate 33, thus dried object can be carried out freeze-dried until moisture content becomes and was beyond one's reach down in the past Double-digit moisture content drops.
Further, since compared with being proposed to obtain the method for lower temperature by liquid nitrogen, operation cost is cheap in the past And temperature conditionss can also be changed, therefore, it is possible to tackle various drying conditions.
When starting cryotrap 38, become closed state by making the first lattice 21 or the second lattice 23, thus Can prevent the ice being attached to the first cold-trap 17 from adsorbing on the lower cryotrap for the treatment of temperature 38 compared with the first cold-trap 17 Probability.
In addition it is also possible to install the other separations in addition to the second lattice 23 between cryotrap 38 and hothouse 11 Valve is not so that destroy the function of orifice plate 33.
Or it is also possible to according to the species of dried object f1 or the restriction that leads to because of dried object f1, maintenance can be tieed up Hold above-mentioned critical pressure ratio assigned position relation while, the cryopanel 38a in cryotrap 38 and orifice plate 33 are directly set Put in hothouse 11.This structure can be applicable to following situation: such as dried object f1 is the product being removed after airtight Situation etc. and the ice being attached to cryotrap 38 will not cause the situation of problem in product warehouse-out.
In addition, identical with the first cold-trap 17 it is also possible to existing freeze-dried device perforate additional valve, and add Cryotrap 38.At this time, it may be necessary to being set to above-mentioned specification or being set to the structure according to this specification so that can be applicable to clean And sterilization process.
In dried, dried object f1 expose the inside of hothouse 11, the inside of the first de-watering section 12, second take off The inside in water portion 30 must assure that integral asepsis.Therefore, whenever starting medicament production process, before medicament production process Operation is it is necessary to carry out steam sterilization operation and matting.Towards pharmaceuticals particularly be applied to water for injection (wfi: Water for injection) manufacture etc. freeze-dried device in necessary sterilization treatment refer to by more than 122 DEG C Steam in expose more than 20 minutes and eliminating bacteria.
Inside hothouse 11 pressure in this steam sterilization operation be 210kpa about, 220kpa~240kpa. In fact, as steam sterilization operation, high temperature three hours about will be maintained inside device.Now, in the first cold-trap 17, in order to Tolerate this temperature, keep less than 70 DEG C of temperature by making cooling unit 17c operate.In addition, in this trap of cryotrap 38 In, in order to tolerate this temperature, so that it is operated by starting the compressor of mechanical type fridge 38b when steam heats, thus protecting Hold less than 70 DEG C of temperature.
Due in cryotrap 38, mechanical type fridge 38b cannot keep in the environment of more than 70 DEG C for a long time, because This is preferably carried out at sterilizing while mechanical type fridge 38b being set to operating condition and cooled down in sterilization process s03 Reason.At this time, it may be necessary to carry out mechanical type fridge 38b output set so that the cooling capacity of mechanical type fridge 38b higher and The temperature of trap plate 38a reaches the temperature enough to sterilize.
In addition, in the case of the device that such as present embodiment manufactures towards pharmaceutical preparation, as mechanical type The connecting portion of fridge 38b and cryopanel 38a improves the paper tinsel body of heat transfer, can use gold-plated, native gold etc..
The first drying process s09 and heat drying operation s10 of water is trapped in the first cold-trap 17 at -50 DEG C~-70 DEG C After end, carry out the second drying process s14 as total polish further, in this operation, cryotrap 38 is at -90 DEG C Residual moisture is drawn at~-100 DEG C.It is therefore preferable that the first cold-trap 17 and cryotrap 38 are arranged on the room (space) separating. Additionally, it is preferred that not using heater 11b for the ice-melt in cryopanel 38a.
For cryotrap 38, the material in the cylinder body portion of mechanical type fridge 38b is sus316.In addition, cryopanel (trap Plate) material of 38a part is sus316, heat transfer part formed by the higher metal of the corrosion resistances such as native gold.
Reducing the second drying process s14 of the moisture content of dried object f1 by trapping moisture at very low temperature is Carry out the finishing step after the first freeze-dried drying process s09, remaining some moisture of absorption under conventional operating. Therefore, in the Minton dryer of present embodiment, its object is to when processing speed rising need not be made and shortens process Between in the case of, the degree that reaches of moisture content is improved about double figures.In the past, select for quasiconductor or flat faced display Cryotrap 38 in the manufacture device of (fpd, flat panel display), cryotrap 38 can be used for present embodiment Minton dryer.
