Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mixing device, in particular for mixing solids.
  • the disadvantage of the state of the art is the usually expensive and complex construction, which is the case in particular with mixing devices with several stirring axes.
  • the geometry of the stirring blades must be designed in such a way that collisions do not occur during operation.
  • most mixers cannot be used in batch operation in pharmaceutical production for a longer period of time, since the complex design results in a lot of dead space in gaps. The result is a carryover from batch to batch and thus poor traceability in pharmaceutical production.
  • GB 2 079 615 A and U.S. 4,049,244 A disclose mixing devices having the features of claim 1.
  • the invention is based on a mixing device according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • the mixing device is used in particular for mixing solids in a mixing container, with a stirring element which has at least two helically designed stirring blades which are connected to a motor-driven shaft, the stirring blades having a first section, a second section and a third section.
  • Each of the sections has a constant slope with a steepness or a slope deviating from the constant slope with a curvature, at least one of the constant slopes having a slope different from the at least one other constant slope or one of the deviating slopes one of the at least one other different slope has different curvature.
  • the second section is arranged between the first and third sections.
  • a “slope that deviates from the constant slopes” can be understood to mean a non-constant or variable slope.
  • the first section preferably has a constant gradient
  • the second section a gradient deviating from the constant gradient
  • the third section again has a constant gradient
  • the mixing device By providing the mixing device, dead spaces when mixing the solids in the mixing container can be reduced in a simple manner. In other words, the mixing device enables mixing with almost no dead space.
  • the mixing device can also be used for granulating and / or drying solids.
  • the mixing device can be understood as a stirring device or mixer.
  • the solids are pharmaceutical solids, especially fillers and drugs.
  • the helically formed stirring blades can be understood to mean stirring blades which are formed helically.
  • the at least one constant slope advantageously has a greater or lesser slope than the other constant slope.
  • the at least one section is designed to be steeper or flatter than the other section.
  • the at least one deviating slope further advantageously has a greater or lesser curvature than the other deviating slope.
  • the at least one section is more or less curved than the other section. This allows dead spaces to be reduced by designing the stirring blades.
  • scrapers are arranged at a first end of the stirring blades and bottom clearers are arranged at a second end of the stirring blades.
  • a scraper is arranged at the end of the first section of the stirring blade and a bottom scraper is arranged at the end of the third section.
  • the scrapers also called fins, make it possible for the solids present in the mixing container to be transported in a radial direction within the mixing container in the direction of the motor-driven shaft during mixing.
  • the mixing container has a cylindrical housing wall, a conical housing wall and a valve, the conical housing wall being arranged between the cylindrical housing wall and the valve.
  • a housing wall can be understood to mean a container wall.
  • the valve is preferably a valve with little dead space or preferably a valve free of dead space.
  • the mixing container preferably has a process space. The solids can be mixed in the process space.
  • the agitator element preferably has a transverse bar.
  • the cross bar preferably connects the agitator blades to the shaft.
  • the stirring blades particularly preferably have the same shape.
  • the conically running housing wall preferably encloses an angle ⁇ in a range from 25 ° to 65 °, in particular 45 °, with respect to the horizontal.
  • the horizontal is preferably parallel to the inside / underside of the cover and / or the outside / top of the cover and / or to the cross bar of the agitator.
  • the sections of the stirring blades are also advantageously arranged parallel to the conical housing wall, the stirring blades being of the same width in all sections. This allows dead spaces in the mixing container to be reduced.
  • a distance between the sections of the respective stirring blade and the conical housing wall is preferably 1 to 10 mm, preferably 5 mm.
  • the width of the stirring blades is preferably approximately 5% of the diameter of the cylindrical housing wall and is constant over the entire length of the stirring blades.
  • the scrapers are arranged parallel to the cylindrical housing wall.
  • the wipers are also advantageously arranged parallel to the cylindrical housing wall and / or the bottom clearers have a shape that is adapted to the shape of the valve. In this way, dead spaces can be additionally reduced by designing the scrapers and floor clearers.
  • a distance between the scraper of the respective stirring blade and the cylindrical housing wall is preferably 1 to 10 mm, preferably 5 mm.
  • the wipers are preferably designed to be cut at an axially extending longitudinal side at an angle ⁇ , the angle ⁇ including a range from 20 ° to 60 °, in particular from 40 °.
  • a greatest width of the scrapers on the side facing away from the direction of rotation is particularly preferably smaller by a factor of 0.3 to 0.7, preferably 0.5, than the width of the stirring blades.
  • the mixing device also advantageously has a cover placed on the mixing container, at least one baffle projecting into the mixing container being arranged on the cover and the baffle having a holder and a guide plate.
  • the guide plate is preferably inclined to the horizontal at an angle ⁇ in a range from 15 ° to 55 °, in particular 35 °.
  • the guide plate is preferably inclined at an angle ⁇ in a range from 15 ° to 45 °, in particular 30 °, to a straight line running through the axis of rotation of the shaft.
  • the holder also advantageously has a sensor.
  • Quality control temperature, content, moisture, particle size, lump formation
  • the data from the temperature measurement can be used to determine information on the flow behavior and the shear behavior of the solids.
  • At least one cleaning nozzle which can be extended inside the mixing device is preferably arranged on the cover. As a result, cleaning liquid can be introduced in a simple manner inside the mixing device.
  • the mixing device preferably has at least one filter between an inlet opening and a metering device. This makes it possible to ventilate and / or ventilate the process space in a simple manner.
  • the mixing device preferably has a sight glass in the cover for inspections or measurements of quality-relevant measured variables (eg homogeneity, humidity, particle size, temperature).
  • quality-relevant measured variables eg homogeneity, humidity, particle size, temperature.
  • the mixing device preferably has a lifting / pivoting device which is connected to the cover.
  • the mixing container can be opened and closed by means of the lifting / swiveling device.
  • the mixing process can take place in detail as described below:
  • the solids which are preferably fillers (excipient) and medicinal substances (e.g. highly potent API), are in powder form.
  • the powders are pneumatically, preferably gravimetrically, transported from the feeders to at least one inlet opening for API and excipient.
  • the inlet opening is preferably arranged in the cover or in the housing wall of the mixing container.
  • composition of the mixture can be carried out with high precision, since the mixing device can be operated with the low stirrer speed in the receiving mode for as long as is required for a highly precise metering.
  • the agitator can turn in the mixing direction.
  • the mixing direction is that in which the powder has to slide upwards on the upper side of the stirring blades, since the stirring element moves this upper side against the bulk of the powder. So that the mixing time is very short, and small amounts of highly potent API can be well distributed even during the dosing, only fillers can be dosed into the mixing container of the mixing device in a first phase of the dosing in the range of greater than 0 to 30 seconds, while the agitator levels the bed at a slow speed and already premixes it. This prevents some of the already small amount of medicinal substances from sticking to metallic surfaces of the stirring element, the housing wall and / or the valve in cases of unfavorable substance properties.
  • the dosage of the medicinal substances can then also begin, with the stirrer rotating at a sensibly predetermined speed and ideally the inlet opening for the medicinal substances being located above the powder bed of fillers.
  • the agitator can rotate at the full required mixing speed, but in a shortened period of time, since a large part of the substances was already mixed during the dosing.
  • the agitator can reduce its speed and the valve at the outlet opening can be opened.
  • the powder mixture is conveyed gravimetrically or pneumatically, preferably a combination of both mechanisms, out of the mixer, with the agitator rotating further in the mixing direction to assist.
  • the agitator can rotate at mixing speed or some other sensibly specified speed.
  • the filter at the connection between the inlet opening and the dosing device can also be used to add air to support the transport.
  • air can also be added through a specially provided opening to support transport if the pressure loss across the filter becomes too high.
  • Optional valves at one of the inlet openings can prevent uncontrolled entry of materials from the feeders into the mixing device due to excessive suction during pneumatic emptying.
  • Different solids are preferably metered in a period of 1 to 8 minutes through at least one inlet opening.
  • the dosing can be done by means of the powder from dosing devices or connected to the inlet opening similar components.
  • the powder mixture of the solids is preferably made uniform during the metering, by slow mixing. This avoids a cone of material which could block the inlet opening.
  • the various solids are mixed within 0.5 to 5 minutes through the formation of vertical, elliptical flows between the shaft and the housing wall.
  • the powder mixture can flow up the housing wall and move down again in the vicinity of the shaft.
  • the agitator is shaped so that it moves the powder mixture as gently as possible without introducing more shear and energy than necessary into the powder mixture. A significant local temperature increase in the powder mixture is thus avoided even at high speeds and short mixing times.
  • the special design (helical shape) of the agitator enables efficient vertical transport of the powder mixture up the housing wall.
  • the cleaning process can take place in detail as described below:
  • the mixer can be emptied almost completely before cleaning so as not to waste valuable pharmaceuticals or API.
  • a cleaning liquid preferably water or water with cleaning additives
  • the agitator rotates at any speed and Order in and against the mixing direction.
  • the valve at the outlet opening can initially remain closed until the mixing container is filled to 50-80%.
  • the rotation creates a stronger cleaning effect on the housing wall.
  • the sudden reversal of the direction of rotation creates turbulence and cleans the agitator and baffle.
  • the rotating movement creates a vortex. This enables cleaning fluid to be transported to the lid and cleans it.
  • the valve can now be opened to any degree, so that the cleaning liquid provided with powder residues can leave the mixing device.
  • drying air can instead be supplied to the mixing device at a connection specially provided for this purpose in the cover or at the connection between the inlet opening and the metering device.
  • the valve at the outlet opening of the mixing device is opened to a desired degree.
  • the valve of the mixing device can be closed, remain open and ideally be opened and closed again as often as required, in order to prevent overfilling of the mixing container on the one hand and also to clean the valve in a particularly advantageous manner on the other hand.
  • the agitator element can advantageously rotate during cleaning in order to increase the cleaning effect by impulses introduced into the cleaning liquid. It can be particularly advantageous if the agitator also moves in the opposite direction of rotation.
  • an air stream of dry air preferably additionally heated air, can be passed into the process space for drying after cleaning.
  • the air required for drying is preferably introduced at the connection between the inlet opening and the metering device when required.
