Description

本発明は、滅菌槽内へ蒸気を導入して内部に収容した被滅菌物の滅菌を行う蒸気滅菌装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a steam sterilization apparatus that sterilizes an object to be sterilized by introducing steam into a sterilization tank.

従来より、病院等で治療に用いられたメスや鉗子等の被滅菌物を蒸気で滅菌する蒸気滅菌装置が知られている。蒸気滅菌とは、蒸気が凝縮する際に放出される熱を利用して滅菌を行うものであり、蒸気滅菌装置は、被滅菌物を収容した滅菌槽へ蒸気を導入して加圧し、所定の温度とした状態を一定時間保ち、被滅菌物の滅菌を行っている。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a steam sterilization apparatus that sterilizes an object to be sterilized such as a scalpel or forceps used for treatment in a hospital or the like with steam is known. Steam sterilization is sterilization using heat released when steam condenses, and a steam sterilization apparatus introduces steam into a sterilization tank containing an object to be sterilized, pressurizes it, The temperature is maintained for a certain period of time, and the object to be sterilized is sterilized.

また、蒸気滅菌装置の多くは、滅菌効果を高めると共に滅菌処理後の被滅菌物の濡れを防止するために、滅菌槽とこの滅菌槽内の被滅菌物を所定温度まで予熱した後、滅菌作業を実施している。このような蒸気滅菌装置では、滅菌槽と被滅菌物との予熱に関しては、被滅菌物を収容する滅菌槽の周囲を覆う加熱槽を備えた構造となっており、加熱槽内へ蒸気を導入することによって滅菌槽を外側から加熱し、運転開始時においては滅菌槽内を所定温度まで昇温させ、運転中においてこの温度を維持している(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。   In addition, many steam sterilizers pre-heat the sterilization tank and the objects to be sterilized to a predetermined temperature before sterilization in order to increase the sterilization effect and prevent the sterilized objects from getting wet. Has been implemented. In such a steam sterilization apparatus, with regard to preheating of the sterilization tank and the object to be sterilized, it has a structure equipped with a heating tank that covers the periphery of the sterilization tank containing the object to be sterilized, and steam is introduced into the heating tank. Thus, the sterilization tank is heated from the outside, and the temperature inside the sterilization tank is raised to a predetermined temperature at the start of operation, and this temperature is maintained during the operation (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

このような蒸気滅菌装置は、被滅菌物を収容した滅菌槽へ蒸気を導入して加圧し、滅菌槽内を所定の温度とし、また、加熱槽内へ蒸気を導入して加圧し、加熱槽内を所定の温度として滅菌槽を外側から加熱しているので、滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力破壊を常に注意する必要があり、蒸気滅菌装置を安全に使用するために、滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力破壊防止が重要なポイントとなっている。   Such a steam sterilization apparatus introduces and pressurizes steam into a sterilization tank containing an object to be sterilized, sets the inside of the sterilization tank to a predetermined temperature, introduces and pressurizes steam into the heating tank, Since the inside of the sterilization tank is heated from the outside with a predetermined temperature inside, it is necessary to be careful of the pressure destruction of the sterilization tank and the heating tank at all times, and in order to use the steam sterilization device safely, Prevention of pressure breakdown is an important point.

滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力破壊は、槽内圧力が異常に上昇することに起因するものであり、滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力破壊を防止する手段として、滅菌槽や加熱槽内に温度センサを設けておき、温度センサにより検出した槽内の温度信号をマイクロコンピュータに入力して判断し、滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力が異常であると判断すると滅菌槽や加熱槽内へ蒸気を供給する弁を閉じて、滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力の上昇を防止することが考えられる。
特開2001−190642号公報
The pressure breakdown of the sterilization tank or heating tank is due to abnormal increase in the pressure in the tank, and a temperature sensor is installed in the sterilization tank or heating tank as a means to prevent pressure destruction of the sterilization tank or heating tank. A valve that supplies steam to the sterilization tank or heating tank when it is determined that the temperature signal in the tank detected by the temperature sensor is input to the microcomputer and the pressure in the sterilization tank or heating tank is determined to be abnormal It is conceivable that the pressure in the sterilization tank or heating tank is prevented from being closed.
JP 2001-190642 A

しかしながら、前記の滅菌槽や加熱槽の圧力破壊を防止する手段は、温度センサがフェールセーフなものとなっておらず、また、前記温度センサの信号をマイクロコンピュータにて判断して滅菌槽や加熱槽内へ蒸気を供給する弁を制御するようになっているので、前記マイクロコンピュータが暴走したり、誤動作をした場合には、安全性が確保できないといった問題があった。   However, the means for preventing pressure destruction of the sterilization tank or heating tank is that the temperature sensor is not fail-safe, and the signal from the temperature sensor is judged by a microcomputer so that the sterilization tank or heating tank Since the valve for supplying steam into the tank is controlled, there is a problem that safety cannot be ensured when the microcomputer runs away or malfunctions.

本発明の目的は、滅菌槽や、加熱槽を備えている場合は加熱槽の圧力破壊防止を確実に行い得る蒸気滅菌装置を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide a steam sterilization apparatus that can reliably prevent pressure destruction of a heating tank when a sterilization tank or a heating tank is provided.

上記の目的を達成する本発明の構成を説明すると、下記の通りである。
請求項1に記載の発明は、滅菌槽に給蒸遮断弁を設けた給蒸管と排蒸遮断弁を設けた排蒸管が接続され、前記給蒸遮断弁を開にして給蒸管から滅菌槽内へ導入された蒸気により内部に収容した被滅菌物の滅菌を行う蒸気滅菌装置において、前記滅菌槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えると開く磁力作動スイッチを設け、該磁力作動スイッチの入力を前記給蒸遮断弁の電気回路及び/又は排蒸遮断弁の電気回路と直結させ、滅菌槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により前記給蒸遮断弁が閉じ及び/又は排蒸遮断弁が開くようにしたことを特徴とする。
The configuration of the present invention that achieves the above object will be described as follows.
In the invention according to claim 1, a steam supply pipe provided with a steam supply shut-off valve in a sterilization tank and an exhaust steam pipe provided with an exhaust steam shut-off valve are connected. In a steam sterilization apparatus for sterilizing an object to be sterilized by steam introduced into a sterilization tank, a magnetically operated switch is provided that opens when the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point, and the input of the magnetically operated switch Is directly connected to the electric circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve and / or the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve, and when the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point, the steam supply shutoff valve is closed by the operation of the magnetic operation switch. And / or a vapor shutoff valve is opened.

かかる構成から、滅菌槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度をキュリー点とする磁力作動スイッチを使用すれば、滅菌槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により前記給蒸遮断弁が閉じて滅菌槽内への蒸気の導入が停止し、及び/又は排蒸遮断弁が開いて滅菌槽内の蒸気が排出されるので、滅菌槽内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより滅菌槽の圧力破壊を防止することができる。そして、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動は、滅菌槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度にて磁力が消滅して磁力作動スイッチが切れることになり、電気が流れなくなるので、フェールセーフなスイッチとなり、磁力作動スイッチの入力を前記給蒸遮断弁の電気回路又は排蒸遮断弁の電気回路に直結させているので、誤動作のおそれが無く、滅菌槽の圧力破壊防止を確実に行うことができる。   With this configuration, if a magnetically operated switch having a Curie point at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum allowable pressure in the sterilization tank is used, when the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic supply switch is operated by the operation of the magnetically operated switch. Since the steam shut-off valve is closed and the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank is stopped, and / or the vaporization shut-off valve is opened and the steam in the sterilization tank is discharged, the pressure rise in the sterilization tank can be stopped. This can prevent pressure destruction of the sterilization tank. Then, the magnetic force actuating switch is operated as a fail-safe switch because the magnetic force disappears at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the allowable maximum pressure of the sterilization tank and the magnetic force actuating switch is cut off. Since the input of the operation switch is directly connected to the electric circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve or the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve, there is no possibility of malfunction and the pressure destruction of the sterilization tank can be reliably prevented.

And a sterilization tank exhaust pipe with a sterilization tank exhaust shutoff valve are connected, and the heating tank exhaust pipe with a heating tank steaming shutoff valve and a heating tank exhaust steam shutoff valve are connected to the heating tank. A steam pipe is connected, the heating tank steaming shutoff valve is opened, the sterilization tank is heated by steam introduced from the heating tank steaming pipe into the heating tank, and the sterilization tank steaming shutoff valve is opened to sterilize. In the steam sterilization apparatus that sterilizes the objects to be sterilized stored in the sterilization tank by the steam introduced from the tank feed pipe into the sterilization tank, a magnetically operated switch is provided that opens when the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point. The sterilization tank supply shutoff valve electrical circuit and / or the sterilization tank exhaustion cutoff. When the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point, the sterilization tank fumigation shut-off valve is closed and / or the sterilization tank fumigation shut-off valve is opened by the operation of the magnetic operation switch. In addition, a magnetic operation switch that opens when the temperature in the heating tank exceeds the Curie point is provided, and an input circuit of the magnetic operation switch serves as an electric circuit of the heating tank steaming shutoff valve and / or an electric circuit of the heating tank exhaust steam shutoff valve. When the temperature in the heating tank exceeds the Curie point, the heating tank steaming shut-off valve is closed and / or the heating tank exhaust steam shut-off valve is opened by operating the magnetic operation switch. And

かかる構成から、滅菌槽及び加熱槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度をキュリー点とする磁力作動スイッチを使用すれば、滅菌槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により、前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁が閉じて滅菌槽内への蒸気の導入が停止し、及び/又は滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁が開いて滅菌槽内の蒸気が排出されるので、滅菌槽内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、また、加熱槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により、前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁が閉じて加熱槽内への蒸気の導入が停止し、及び/又は加熱槽排蒸遮断弁が開いて加熱槽内の蒸気が排出されるので、加熱槽内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより滅菌槽及び加熱槽の圧力破壊を防止することができる。そして、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動は、滅菌槽及び加熱槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度にて磁力が消滅して磁力作動スイッチが切れることになり、電気が流れなくなるので、フェールセーフなスイッチとなり、磁力作動スイッチの入力を前記給蒸遮断弁の電気回路及び又は排蒸遮断弁の電気回路に直結させているので、誤動作のおそれが無く、滅菌槽及び加熱槽の圧力破壊防止を確実に行うことができる。   From this configuration, if a magnetically operated switch having a Curie point at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum allowable pressure of the sterilization tank and the heating tank is used, the operation of the magnetically operated switch is performed when the temperature in the sterilization tank exceeds the Curie point. As a result, the sterilization tank supply shutoff valve is closed and the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank is stopped, and / or the sterilization tank exhaustion shutoff valve is opened and the steam in the sterilization tank is discharged. In addition, when the temperature in the heating tank exceeds the Curie point, the heating tank steaming shut-off valve is closed by the operation of the magnetic force operation switch, and the steam is supplied to the heating tank. Since the introduction is stopped and / or the steam in the heating tank is exhausted by opening the heating tank exhaustion shutoff valve, the pressure rise in the heating tank can be stopped, and thereby the pressure in the sterilization tank and the heating tank Destruction can be prevented. And the operation of the magnetic operation switch is a fail-safe switch because the magnetic operation disappears at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the allowable maximum pressure of the sterilization tank and the heating tank, and the magnetic operation switch is turned off, so that no electricity flows. Since the input of the magnetic operation switch is directly connected to the electrical circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve and the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve, there is no risk of malfunction and the pressure destruction prevention of the sterilization tank and heating tank is ensured. It can be carried out.

以上のように本発明に係る蒸気滅菌装置によれば、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えると開く磁力作動スイッチを設け、該磁力作動スイッチの入力を前記給蒸遮断弁の電気回路及び/又は排蒸遮断弁の電気回路と直結させ、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により前記給蒸遮断弁が閉じ及び/又は排蒸遮断弁が開くようにしたので、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度をキュリー点とする磁力作動スイッチを使用すれば、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動により前記給蒸遮断弁が閉じて滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内への蒸気の導入が停止し、及び/又は排蒸遮断弁が開いて滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内の蒸気が排出されるので、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽の圧力破壊を防止することができる。そして、前記磁力作動スイッチの作動は、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽の許容最高圧力に対応する所定温度にて磁力が消滅して磁力作動スイッチが切れることになり、電気が流れなくなるので、フェールセーフなスイッチとなり、磁力作動スイッチの入力を前記給蒸遮断弁の電気回路及び/又は排蒸遮断弁の電気回路と直結させているので、誤動作のおそれが無く、滅菌槽又は滅菌槽及び加熱槽の圧力破壊防止を確実に行うことができる。   As described above, according to the steam sterilization apparatus of the present invention, a sterilization tank or a sterilization tank and a heating tank are provided with a magnetic operation switch that opens when the temperature exceeds the Curie point, and the input of the magnetic operation switch is cut off from the supply of steam. When the temperature in the sterilization tank or the sterilization tank and the heating tank exceeds the Curie point, the steam supply shut-off valve is activated by the operation of the magnetically operated switch when directly connected to the electric circuit of the valve and / or the electric circuit of the fumigation cutoff valve. Since the shut-off and / or the fumigation shut-off valve are opened, the sterilization tank or sterilization tank can be used by using a magnetically actuated switch with a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum allowable pressure of the sterilization tank or sterilization tank and heating tank. And when the temperature in the heating tank exceeds the Curie point, the steam supply shut-off valve is closed by the operation of the magnetic operation switch, and the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank or the sterilization tank and the heating tank is stopped, and / or Exhaust block Opens and the steam in the sterilization tank or sterilization tank and heating tank is discharged, so that the pressure increase in the sterilization tank or sterilization tank and heating tank can be stopped. Pressure breakdown can be prevented. Then, the operation of the magnetic force operation switch is such that the magnetic force disappears at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum allowable pressure of the sterilization tank or the sterilization tank and the heating tank, and the magnetic operation switch is turned off. Since it becomes a safe switch and the input of the magnetic operation switch is directly connected to the electric circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve and / or the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve, there is no risk of malfunction, and the sterilization tank or sterilization tank and heating tank Can be reliably prevented.

以下、本発明に係る蒸気滅菌装置を実施するための最良の形態の一例を詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, an example of the best mode for carrying out the steam sterilization apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail.

図1、図2は、本発明に係る蒸気滅菌装置の実施の形態の第1例であり、図1は本例の蒸気滅菌装置を示す概略構成図、図2は本例で用いる磁力作動スイッチの一例を示す縦断面図である。   1 and 2 show a first example of an embodiment of a steam sterilization apparatus according to the present invention, FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing the steam sterilization apparatus of this example, and FIG. 2 is a magnetically operated switch used in this example. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view which shows an example.

本例の蒸気滅菌装置では、滅菌槽1に、給蒸遮断弁2を設けた給蒸管3と排蒸遮断弁4を設けた排蒸管5が接続されている。そして、前記給蒸遮断弁2を開とすることにより、ボイラ(図示せず)により生成された蒸気を給蒸管3から滅菌槽1内へ導入し、給蒸遮断弁2を閉とすることにより滅菌槽1内への蒸気の導入を遮断するようになっている、また前記排蒸遮断弁4を開とすることにより、滅菌槽1内へ導入した蒸気を排蒸管5から排出するようになっている。   In the steam sterilization apparatus of this example, a steam supply pipe 3 provided with a steam supply shutoff valve 2 and a steam exhaust pipe 5 provided with a steaming shutoff valve 4 are connected to the sterilization tank 1. Then, by opening the steam supply shut-off valve 2, steam generated by a boiler (not shown) is introduced from the steam supply pipe 3 into the sterilization tank 1, and the steam supply shut-off valve 2 is closed. In this way, the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank 1 is shut off, and the steam introduced into the sterilization tank 1 is discharged from the exhaust pipe 5 by opening the exhaust steam shutoff valve 4. It has become.

前記滅菌槽1内には、滅菌槽1内の温度がキュリー点を超えると開く磁力作動スイッチ6が設けられている。図2は本例で用いられる磁力作動スイッチ6の一例を示す縦断面図である。この磁力作動スイッチ6は、ガラス管7に封入されたリードスイッチ8と、その周囲に配置されキュリー温度にて磁性が変化する筒状の感温磁性体9と、同じくリードスイッチ8の周囲に配置される筒状の永久磁石10とから構成されている。   In the sterilization tank 1, a magnetic force actuating switch 6 that opens when the temperature in the sterilization tank 1 exceeds the Curie point is provided. FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing an example of the magnetic force actuated switch 6 used in this example. The magnetic force actuating switch 6 includes a reed switch 8 sealed in a glass tube 7, a cylindrical temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9 that is arranged around the reed switch 8 and changes its magnetism at the Curie temperature, and is also disposed around the reed switch 8. The cylindrical permanent magnet 10 is made up of.

このように構成された磁力作動スイッチ6は、感温磁性体9のキュリー点が滅菌槽1において許容される最高圧力に対応する所定温度に設定されており、滅菌槽1内の温度が前記設定温度以上となると、感温磁性体9のキュリー点以上となって磁力が消失し、これに伴いリードスイッチ8が切れるように構成されている。リードスイッチ8にはリード線11,12が接続されている。ガラス管7、リード線11,12は耐熱性絶縁材13で覆われている。   In the magnetic force actuated switch 6 configured in this way, the Curie point of the temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9 is set to a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum pressure allowed in the sterilization tank 1, and the temperature in the sterilization tank 1 is set as described above. When the temperature is higher than the temperature, the temperature becomes higher than the Curie point of the temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9, the magnetic force disappears, and the reed switch 8 is turned off accordingly. Lead wires 11 and 12 are connected to the reed switch 8. The glass tube 7 and the lead wires 11 and 12 are covered with a heat resistant insulating material 13.

前記磁力作動スイッチ6は前記給蒸遮断弁2の電気回路及び排蒸遮断弁4の電気回路に設けてある制御回路14と直結しており、前記滅菌槽1内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、感温磁性体9の磁力が消失し、前記磁力作動スイッチ6が作動してOFFとなり、制御回路14により前記給蒸遮断弁2が閉じ又は排蒸遮断弁4が開き、又は、給蒸遮断弁2が閉じると共に排蒸遮断弁4が開くようになっている。   The magnetic force actuating switch 6 is directly connected to the control circuit 14 provided in the electric circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve 2 and the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve 4, and the temperature in the sterilization tank 1 has exceeded the Curie point. At this time, the magnetic force of the temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9 disappears, the magnetic operation switch 6 is activated and turned OFF, and the steam supply shut-off valve 2 is closed or the exhaust steam shut-off valve 4 is opened by the control circuit 14, or the steam supply When the shutoff valve 2 is closed, the exhaust steam shutoff valve 4 is opened.

また、前記滅菌槽1には、大気圧近傍の飽和温度に対して検知できる温度センサ15が設けられており、この温度センサ15の信号が前記制御回路14に与えられ、滅菌槽1の扉(図示せず)を開ける際の0圧の確認を該制御回路14で行って、扉を開ける際の許可の指示を出すようになっている。   Further, the sterilization tank 1 is provided with a temperature sensor 15 capable of detecting a saturation temperature near atmospheric pressure, and a signal from the temperature sensor 15 is given to the control circuit 14 so that the door ( The control circuit 14 confirms the zero pressure when opening the door (not shown), and issues a permission instruction when opening the door.

このように構成された蒸気滅菌装置では、滅菌槽1内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチ6が作動し、磁力作動スイッチ6からの信号を受けた制御回路14の制御により、前記給蒸遮断弁2が閉じ、及び/又は排蒸遮断弁4が開く。前記給蒸遮断弁2が閉じることにより滅菌槽1内への蒸気の導入が停止し、排蒸遮断弁4が開くことにより滅菌槽1内の蒸気が排出されるので、滅菌槽1内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより滅菌槽1の圧力破壊を防止することができる。   In the steam sterilization apparatus configured as described above, when the temperature in the sterilization tank 1 exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic force operation switch 6 is activated, and the control circuit 14 receives a signal from the magnetic force operation switch 6 to control it. The steam supply shutoff valve 2 is closed and / or the exhaust steam shutoff valve 4 is opened. When the steam supply shut-off valve 2 is closed, the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank 1 is stopped, and when the exhaust steam shut-off valve 4 is opened, the steam in the sterilization tank 1 is discharged. The ascent can be stopped, and thereby the pressure destruction of the sterilization tank 1 can be prevented.

このような給蒸遮断弁2、排蒸遮断弁4の動作は前記制御回路14により制御される。これらの動作のうち、どの動作を選択するかは、特に限定されないが、滅菌槽1内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記給蒸遮断弁2が閉じると共に排蒸遮断弁4が開くように動作させると、より一層安全性の高いものとなる。   The operations of the steam supply cutoff valve 2 and the exhaust steam cutoff valve 4 are controlled by the control circuit 14. Of these operations, which operation is selected is not particularly limited, but when the temperature in the sterilization tank 1 exceeds the Curie point, the steam supply shutoff valve 2 is closed and the steaming shutoff valve 4 is opened. When it is operated in a safe manner, the safety becomes even higher.

そして、前記磁力作動スイッチ6の作動は、滅菌槽1の許容最高圧力と対応する所定温度にて磁力が消滅して磁力作動スイッチが切れることになり、電気が流れなくなるので、フェールセーフなスイッチとなり、磁力作動スイッチ6の入力を前記給蒸遮断弁2の電気回路及び排蒸遮断弁4の電気回路に設けてある制御回路14と直結させているので、誤動作のおそれが無く、滅菌槽1の圧力破壊防止を確実に行うことができる。   The operation of the magnetic force operation switch 6 is a fail-safe switch because the magnetic force disappears at a predetermined temperature corresponding to the allowable maximum pressure of the sterilization tank 1 and the magnetic force operation switch is turned off, so that electricity does not flow. Since the input of the magnetic force actuating switch 6 is directly connected to the control circuit 14 provided in the electric circuit of the steam supply shutoff valve 2 and the electrical circuit of the exhaust steam shutoff valve 4, there is no risk of malfunction and the sterilization tank 1 Pressure destruction can be reliably prevented.

なお、本例では、前記磁力作動スイッチ6が滅菌槽1内に設けられているが、これに限られるものではなく、滅菌槽1に接続される給蒸管3内の給蒸遮断弁2の下流側に設けられていてもよく、又は、排蒸管5内の排蒸遮断弁4の上流側に設けられていてもよい。   In this example, the magnetic force actuated switch 6 is provided in the sterilization tank 1, but is not limited to this, and the steam supply shutoff valve 2 in the steam supply pipe 3 connected to the sterilization tank 1 is not limited thereto. It may be provided on the downstream side, or may be provided on the upstream side of the exhaust steam cutoff valve 4 in the exhaust steam pipe 5.

図3は、本発明に係る蒸気滅菌装置の実施の形態の第2例の概略構成図である。   FIG. 3 is a schematic configuration diagram of a second example of the embodiment of the steam sterilization apparatus according to the present invention.

本例の蒸気滅菌装置では、被滅菌物を収容する滅菌槽16と、この滅菌槽16を覆い加熱する加熱槽17を備えている。前記滅菌槽16には、滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18を備えた滅菌槽給蒸管19と滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20を備えた滅菌槽排蒸管21が接続されている。   The steam sterilization apparatus of this example includes a sterilization tank 16 for storing an object to be sterilized and a heating tank 17 for covering and heating the sterilization tank 16. The sterilization tank 16 is connected to a sterilization tank steaming pipe 19 having a sterilization tank steaming shutoff valve 18 and a sterilization tank steaming pipe 21 having a sterilization tank steaming shutoff valve 20.

また、前記加熱槽17には、加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22を備えた加熱槽給蒸管23と加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24を備えた加熱槽排蒸管25が接続されている。   The heating tank 17 is connected to a heating tank steaming pipe 23 having a heating tank steaming cutoff valve 22 and a heating tank steaming pipe 25 having a heating tank steaming cutoff valve 24.

そして、前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18を開にすることにより、ボイラ(図示せず)により生成された蒸気を滅菌槽給蒸管19から滅菌槽16内へ導入し、滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18を閉とすることにより滅菌槽16内への蒸気の導入を遮断するようになっている、また前記滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20を開とすることにより、滅菌槽16内へ導入した蒸気を滅菌槽排蒸管21から排出するようになっている。   Then, the steam generated by a boiler (not shown) is introduced into the sterilization tank 16 from the sterilization tank steaming pipe 19 by opening the sterilization tank steaming cutoff valve 18, and the sterilization tank steaming cutoff valve is introduced. By closing 18, the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank 16 is blocked, and by opening the sterilization tank exhaust steam shutoff valve 20, the steam introduced into the sterilization tank 16 is removed. It discharges from the sterilization tank exhaust pipe 21.

また、前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22を開とすることにより、ボイラ(図示せず)により生成された蒸気を加熱槽給蒸管23から加熱槽17内へ導入し、加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22を閉とすることにより加熱槽17内への蒸気の導入を遮断するようになっている、また前記加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24を開とすることにより、加熱槽17内へ導入した蒸気を加熱槽排蒸管25から排出するようになっている。   Further, by opening the heating tank supply shutoff valve 22, steam generated by a boiler (not shown) is introduced from the heating tank supply pipe 23 into the heating tank 17, and the heating tank supply cutoff valve is introduced. The steam introduced into the heating tank 17 is cut off by closing the heating tank 17, and the steam introduced into the heating tank 17 is opened by opening the heating tank exhausting shutoff valve 24. It discharges from the heating tank exhaust pipe 25.

前記滅菌槽16及び加熱槽17内には、滅菌槽16及び加熱槽17内の温度がキュリー点を超えると開く磁力作動スイッチ26,27が設けられている。本例で用いられる磁力作動スイッチ26,27は、前記第1例で用いられている磁力作動スイッチ6と同様の構成となっている。前記磁力作動スイッチ26は、感温磁性体9のキュリー点が滅菌槽16において許容される最高圧力と対応する所定温度に設定されており、また、前記磁力作動スイッチ27は、感温磁性体9のキュリー点が加熱槽17において許容される最高圧力と対応する所定温度に設定されている。   In the sterilization tank 16 and the heating tank 17, there are provided magnetic operation switches 26 and 27 that open when the temperature in the sterilization tank 16 and the heating tank 17 exceeds the Curie point. The magnetic force operation switches 26 and 27 used in this example have the same configuration as the magnetic force operation switch 6 used in the first example. The magnetic actuation switch 26 is set to a predetermined temperature at which the Curie point of the temperature sensitive magnetic body 9 corresponds to the maximum pressure allowed in the sterilization tank 16, and the magnetic actuation switch 27 is configured to correspond to the temperature sensitive magnetic body 9. The Curie point is set to a predetermined temperature corresponding to the maximum pressure allowed in the heating tank 17.

前記滅菌槽16内に設けた磁力作動スイッチ26は、前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18の電気回路及び/又は滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20の電気回路に設けてある制御回路28と直結しており、前記滅菌槽16内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、感温磁性体9の磁力が消失し、前記磁力作動スイッチ26が作動してOFFとなり、制御回路28により前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18が閉じ又は滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開き、又は、滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18が閉じると共に滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開くようになっている。   The magnetic force actuating switch 26 provided in the sterilization tank 16 is directly connected to the control circuit 28 provided in the electric circuit of the sterilization tank fumigation cutoff valve 18 and / or the electric circuit of the sterilization tank fumigation cutoff valve 20. When the temperature in the sterilization tank 16 exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic force of the temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9 disappears, the magnetic force operation switch 26 is turned off, and the control circuit 28 controls the sterilization tank fumigation shutoff valve. 18 is closed or the sterilization tank exhaustion shutoff valve 20 is opened, or the sterilization tank steaming shutoff valve 18 is closed and the sterilization tank exhaustion shutoff valve 20 is opened.

また、前記加熱槽17内に設けた磁力作動スイッチ27は、前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22の電気回路及び/又は加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24の電気回路に設けてある制御回路28と直結しており、前記加熱槽17内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、感温磁性体9の磁力が消失し、前記磁力作動スイッチ27が作動してOFFとなり、制御回路28により前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22が閉じ又は加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24が開き、又は、加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22が閉じると共に滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開くようになっている。   The magnetic force actuating switch 27 provided in the heating tank 17 is directly connected to the control circuit 28 provided in the electric circuit of the heating tank steaming shutoff valve 22 and / or the electrical circuit of the heating tank exhausting shutoff valve 24. When the temperature in the heating tank 17 exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic force of the temperature-sensitive magnetic body 9 disappears, the magnetic operation switch 27 is activated and turned off, and the heating circuit is heated by the control circuit 28. The shut-off valve 22 is closed or the heating tank exhaust steam shut-off valve 24 is opened, or the heating tank feed steam shut-off valve 22 is closed and the sterilization tank exhaust steam shut-off valve 20 is opened.

また、前記滅菌槽16には、第1例と同様に、大気圧近傍の飽和温度に対して検知できる温度センサ29が設けられており、この温度センサ29の信号が前記制御回路28に与えられ、滅菌槽16の扉(図示せず)を開ける際の0圧の確認を該制御回路28で行って、扉を開ける際の許可の指示を出すようになっている。   Further, as in the first example, the sterilization tank 16 is provided with a temperature sensor 29 that can detect a saturation temperature near atmospheric pressure, and a signal from the temperature sensor 29 is given to the control circuit 28. The control circuit 28 confirms the zero pressure when the door (not shown) of the sterilization tank 16 is opened, and issues a permission instruction when the door is opened.

このように構成された蒸気滅菌装置では、滅菌槽16内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチ26が作動し、磁力作動スイッチ26からの信号を受けた制御回路28の制御により、前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18が閉じ、及び/又は滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開く。前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18が閉じることにより滅菌槽16内への蒸気の導入が停止し、滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開くことにより滅菌槽16内の蒸気が排出されるので、滅菌槽16内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより滅菌槽16の圧力破壊を防止することができる。   In the steam sterilization apparatus configured as described above, when the temperature in the sterilization tank 16 exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic force actuating switch 26 is actuated and controlled by the control circuit 28 that receives a signal from the magnetic force actuating switch 26. The sterilization tank feed shutoff valve 18 is closed and / or the sterilization tank exhaust steam shutoff valve 20 is opened. Since the introduction of steam into the sterilization tank 16 is stopped by closing the sterilization tank steaming shut-off valve 18 and the sterilization tank exhaust steam shut-off valve 20 is opened, the steam in the sterilization tank 16 is discharged. The pressure rise in 16 can be stopped, and thereby the pressure destruction of the sterilization tank 16 can be prevented.

このような滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18、滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20の動作は前記制御回路28により制御される。これらの動作のうち、どの動作を選択するかは、特に限定されないが、滅菌槽16内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記滅菌槽給蒸遮断弁18が閉じると共に滅菌槽排蒸遮断弁20が開くように動作させると、より一層安全性の高いものとなる。   The operations of the sterilization tank supply cutoff valve 18 and the sterilization tank exhaustion cutoff valve 20 are controlled by the control circuit 28. Of these operations, which operation is selected is not particularly limited, but when the temperature in the sterilization tank 16 exceeds the Curie point, the sterilization tank fumigation shutoff valve 18 is closed and the sterilization tank fumigation shutoff valve is closed. If it is operated so that 20 opens, it will become much safer.

また、加熱槽17内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記磁力作動スイッチ27が作動し、磁力作動スイッチ27からの信号を受けた制御回路28の制御により、前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22が閉じ、及び/又は加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24が開く。前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22が閉じることにより加熱槽17内への蒸気の導入が停止し、加熱槽排蒸遮断弁22が開くことにより加熱槽17内の蒸気が排出されるので、加熱槽17内の圧力上昇を停止させることができ、これにより加熱槽17の圧力破壊を防止することができる。   Further, when the temperature in the heating tank 17 exceeds the Curie point, the magnetic operation switch 27 is activated, and the control of the control circuit 28 that receives a signal from the magnetic operation switch 27 controls the heating tank supply shutoff valve 22. Is closed and / or the heating tank exhaust steam shutoff valve 24 is opened. Since the introduction of the steam into the heating tank 17 is stopped by closing the heating tank supply shutoff valve 22, and the steam in the heating tank 17 is discharged by opening the heating tank exhausting shutoff valve 22, the heating tank The pressure rise in 17 can be stopped, whereby the pressure breakage of the heating tank 17 can be prevented.

このような加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22、加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24の動作は前記制御回路28により制御される。これらの動作のうち、どの動作を選択するかは、特に限定されないが、加熱槽17内の温度がキュリー点を超えたとき、前記加熱槽給蒸遮断弁22が閉じると共に加熱槽排蒸遮断弁24が開くように動作させると、より一層安全性の高いものとなる。   The operation of the heating tank steaming shutoff valve 22 and the heating tank exhaust steam shutoff valve 24 is controlled by the control circuit 28. Of these operations, which operation is selected is not particularly limited, but when the temperature in the heating tank 17 exceeds the Curie point, the heating tank steaming cutoff valve 22 is closed and the heating tank exhausting cutoff valve is closed. If it is operated so that 24 opens, it will become much safer.
