Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a vacuum packaging sheet and a sterilizing apparatus using the same,

The present invention relates to a sterilizing apparatus, and more particularly, to a vacuum sack sterilizer for sterilizing sterilant by injecting a sterilizing agent into a vacuum pouch.

A chemical sterilizer is a device that performs a desiccation process at a low temperature using a gas such as hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and chlorine dioxide (ClO 2 ) as a sterilant.

A conventional chemical sterilizer using hydrogen peroxide as a sterilizing agent forms a base vacuum pressure of less than 10 Torr in the sterilization process chamber and supplies the sterilizing agent. In such a vacuum state, And may be vaporized at low temperatures (e.g., 60 degrees Celsius). For sterilization, a vaporized sterilant is fed into a chamber having a fixed volume. The amount of sterilizing agent supplied shall be such as to determine the amount of sterilizing agent supplied to be at or below the maximum pressure (eg, 30 torr) at which the sterilizer can remain in the gaseous state at the set temperature. Thus, the sterilizing agent must be maintained in the gaseous state, but the sterilization article inside the chamber and the inside thereof can be delivered and a successful sterilization process can be performed.

Conventional plasma sterilizers generally have sterilization chambers of several tens liters or more, and the supply of sterilizing agent is on the order of a few milliliters in an environment of about 55 degrees centigrade. If the sterilizer is injected above the vaporization pressure, partial condensation occurs inside the sterilizer, and sufficient sterilization may not be achieved because it is difficult to sufficiently transfer the sterilizer to the article. Also, such high-oxidizing sterilizing agents increase the probability of remaining on the object of the sterilizing agent even after the process, resulting in user exposure, and it is difficult to secure the safety of the sterilization process. On the other hand, if a sufficient amount of sterilant is not injected, the concentration of the sterilant in the sterilization apparatus is low, and the sterilization efficiency is low and it is difficult to achieve successful sterilization. Supplying such a sterilizing agent in a predetermined amount is required to ensure the reliability and safety of the sterilization process.

In order to prevent secondary infections and cross-infections after the sterilization process, the conventional sterilizer performs a sterilization process in a state of being packed in a permeable pouch. For effective sterilization processes, TIVEK ® , which has selective permeability on one side of the film of the pouch, is commonly used. On the other hand, a transparent film (for example, PE, PET or PE-PET film) is used so that an internal sterilizing object can be seen. Here, the selective permeability permits permeation of the sterilizing agent through the film to perform the sterilization process and to maintain the sterility after the sterilization process due to the impermeability of the bacteria. However, sterilization sterilization agent is absorbed in part on TIVEK ® film during the process, as a result, has a loss, and poor efficiency of the sterilization process the problem of the sterilant, or absorbed in the packing pouch film after the step sterilizing agent exposed to the user remaining on the surface There is a need for a sufficient purification process to prevent the phenomenon of < Desc / Clms Page number 2 >

The purification process is the sterilization process after which sterile water remaining in the packaging pouch interior, films, and the film surface using a vacuum formed, aeration, plasma (plasma) inner surface sterilization chamber through a discharge, etc., and conventional TIVEK ® additional sterilization chamber the To ensure user safety. However, such an indirect purification process is not efficient in removing the sterilizing agent remaining on the sterilization target object, and a long time purification process is required to secure user safety.

Accordingly, the present inventors have found that an appropriate amount of the sterilizing agent is stored in the container in the exhaust-injection block, including an exhaust-injection block that allows direct sterilant injection into the packaging container without using a film having selective permeability Sterilized packaging containers.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus for sterilizing vacuum pouches by minimizing a sterilizing space and suppressing the use of an unnecessary large amount of sterilizing agent while at the same time vacuum-packaged.

A problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a sterilant containing a sterilant in a predetermined amount by using a packaging pouch or a wrapping paper containing a sterilant, (Sterile packaging pouch) which can be sterilized and injected into the packaging container to perform effective sterilization.

Chemical sterilization using a sterilizing agent is typically carried out using a TIVEK 　 Is placed inside the sterilization chamber. When the sterilizing agent is injected into the sterilization chamber, the sterilizing agent permeates the packaging paper to sterilize the object to be processed in the packaging paper. The sterilization efficiency of this type of sterilization is drastically reduced by a separate wrapping paper. In addition, the wrapper requires an additional long period of cleaning process to remove the sterilant adsorbed in the sterilization process. As the sterilant is injected into the sterilization chamber, a large amount of sterilant is used. The sterilizing agent may cause environmental pollution. Further, the sterilizing agent is usually subjected to an exhaust purification process before being exhausted to the outside. This exhaust purification process deteriorates the performance of the vacuum pump. Therefore, a new sterilization method using a small amount of sterilant is required.

In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a vacuum wrapper is used in place of the sterilization chamber to carry out the sterilization process. After completion of the sterilization process, the vacuum pouch can be immediately delivered by the user or stored for a long time. When the sterilizing agent is injected into the vacuum pouch, the volume defined by the vacuum pouch is significantly smaller than the conventional sterilizing chamber. Therefore, the amount of the sterilizing agent used can be significantly reduced.

The vacuum pouch may be evacuated to a vacuum state below atmospheric pressure by a vacuum pump, and then the sterilizing agent may be injected into the vacuum pouch. When the vacuum pouch is in an atmospheric pressure environment, the vacuum pouch shrinks due to a pressure difference between the inside and the outside, and a space for diffusion of the sterilizing agent is difficult to be secured. In order to provide the diffusion space of the sterilizing agent, the vacuum pouch may be disposed in a vacuum chamber maintained at a pressure lower than the pressure of the vacuum pouch. Accordingly, the vacuum pouch expands due to a low external pressure to secure a space for diffusion. Thus, the secured space can provide a path through which the sterilizing agent can diffuse, thereby stably sterilizing the object such as a lumen. The vacuum chamber is for controlling an external pressure of the vacuum pouch, and the sterilizing agent is not exposed to the inner wall of the vacuum chamber. Accordingly, the air exhausted from the vacuum chamber may be separately purified and not exhausted. Therefore, only the sterilant injected into the vacuum pouch can be selectively purified and exhausted.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, when the vacuum pouch is in a vacuum state, heat transfer due to convection is difficult. Therefore, a heating block may be used to heat the object to a specific temperature required for an optimal sterilization process.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the sterilizing agent is directly injected into the vacuum pouch capable of vacuum sealing using the impermeable film, and the sterilizing efficiency is improved by the limited sterilizing agent diffusion space. Also, a user safety problem that occurs when the sterilizing agent is absorbed by the vacuum pouch or remains on the outer surface of the vacuum pouch can be solved. In addition, the vacuum pouch can be packaged in a vacuum to provide long-term storage in a sterilized state. The vacuum pouch can maintain a sterilized state in a contaminated environment, a high temperature environment, and a high humidity environment. The sterilization agent injection port (or the exhaust-injection block) of the vacuum pouch can be sealed by elasticity using an elastic body such as silicone rubber and a needle.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the volume of the vacuum pouch is secured by using a vacuum container outside the vacuum pouch without forming a flow path such as an emboss pattern, thereby providing a diffusion space for the sterilizing agent.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, it is necessary to secure the volume of the vacuum pouch for effective diffusion of the sterilizing agent inside the vacuum pouch and supply of the sterilizing agent to the sterilizing object after supplying the sterilizing agent directly to the vacuum pouch. An effective sterilization process was made possible by using a vacuum container outside the vacuum package.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a vacuum packaging sheet is sealed using a PE (polyethylene) film in a state in which an object to be processed is accommodated, and vacuum formation of a vacuum packaging sheet through an exhaust- Sterilant supply was made possible.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the vacuum pouch includes an exhaust-injection block, and includes a sterilization containing portion capable of containing a sterilant in the exhaust-injection block, and the sterilant is extracted from the sterilization- And can be injected into the vacuum pouch. Accordingly, the separate sterilizing cartridge can be removed.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, an exhaust-pour block may be mounted on the vacuum pouch to allow direct injection of the sterilizing agent from the sterilizer into the vacuum packaging container to provide effective sterilization.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a sterilizing agent is stored in an exhaust-injection block, so that an appropriate amount of sterilizing agent is stored for the volume of the packaging container, sterilized by the sterilization agent contained in the exhaust- The leakage of the sterilizing agent does not occur during the extraction of the agent, so that the safety of the user and the reliability of the sterilization process can be secured. In addition, information on the amount of sterilant injected using a code such as a barcode or a QR code printed on a wrapping paper or an exhaust-injection block, the kind of the packaging container, and the date of manufacture can be transmitted to the sterilizer to perform a reliable sterilization process have. In addition, warning information can be displayed when the used vacuum pouch is loaded again into the sterilization chamber by using information such as a bar code. Further, information such as a bar code can be used to set the process mode according to this information.

Also, according to the modified embodiment of the present invention, the vacuum chamber may be used as a sterilization chamber to treat a large-sized object to be processed which is not inserted into the vacuum pouch.

The sterilizing agent may be extracted from the sterilizing agent storage portion of the exhaust-injection block using an auxiliary needle and injected through the main needle into the vacuum pouch through the vaporizer. While the sterilizing agent is injected into the vacuum pouch, the vacuum chamber may be maintained in a vacuum state.

At S116, the sterilant injected through the exhaust-injection block may be evacuated. The sterilizing agent of the vacuum pouch can be discharged through the main needle and a predetermined valve.

At S117, the vacuum pouch and the vacuum chamber can be simultaneously injected into the atmosphere. The filter may receive outside air and filter the air to inject air into the vacuum chamber and the vacuum pouch. Then, the main needle regrets. Accordingly, the vacuum chamber is opened, and the vacuum packaging machine can be extracted to the outside.
