Conventional dialysate preparation equipment uses a metering pump,
Measuring water and dialysis stock solution (hereinafter referred to as stock solution) by measuring and mixing them separately, measuring a certain amount of water and stock solution using a measuring tank and mixing them, and measuring the concentration or conductivity of the diluted solution. Depending on the situation, either the water or the stock solution could be controlled. However, the metering pump type has problems with parts wear, leakage from seals, weight, and noise, while the metering tank type has problems such as increased size, reliability of the solenoid valve, inadequate disinfection, and system complexity. ,use,
There are many problems in maintenance. Furthermore, both the metering pump type and the metering tank type have drawbacks such as there is a limit to miniaturization of the shape, and even when changing the concentration of dialysate, operations are complicated and adjustment is difficult. Furthermore, in the method of controlling the water or stock solution by measuring the conductivity of the diluted solution, which is based on the same principle as the present invention, it is not possible to obtain adequate feedback, resulting in oscillation, overshoot, hunting, etc. Instability of concentration has become a problem, and the reality is that it has not become widespread despite the advantages of automation, small size, and light weight.

At the beginning of preparation of dialysate, the inside of the mixing tank is filled with air or residual water from washing, and at the same time as the apparatus is started, the solenoid valve 2 is opened and purified water is injected into the mixing tank.
A zero concentration signal from the concentration sensor in the mixing tank is input to the stock solution pump controller via the concentration measurement circuit, and due to the difference with the signal from the concentration setting device, a rectangular wave like 1 in Figure 3B is output to the comparator. is added to the integrator, which is integrated and passed through the current amplifier,
A voltage such as 1 in FIG. D is applied to the stock solution pump driving motor to start pumping the stock solution. As can be seen from the waveform D, the rotational speed of the motor increases over time, gradually increasing the rate of injection of the stock solution into the mixing tank. Correspondingly, the concentration of the liquid in the mixing tank also starts from zero as shown in A1, gradually increases, and eventually becomes equal to the set concentration. At this point, the output of the comparator changes from positive to negative, but the liquid concentration further increases due to a slight response delay. However, from the point at which the output from the comparator becomes negative, the output voltage of the integrator begins to decrease as shown in C2, and the rotational speed of the motor also decreases, reducing the amount of stock solution added. concentration decreases. While repeating this control operation, the liquid concentration gradually approaches the set concentration, reaches an equilibrium state, and becomes stable.

If the liquid concentration changes for some reason during use,
By comparison with the set concentration, when the concentration is high, the signal from the comparator becomes negative, the output voltage of the integrator decreases, and the concentration of the liquid decreases. When the liquid becomes thin, a positive signal is applied to the integrator, which acts to increase the input voltage to the motor, bringing the liquid concentration closer to the set concentration. By constantly comparing the dialysate concentration prepared in this way with a set concentration, the stock solution pump is operated in a direction to correct changes in the solution concentration, thereby ensuring stability of the concentration. In this case, the time constant of the integrator that integrates the signal from the comparator has a significant effect on the stability of the control system. In other words, in the case of excessive response (small time constant), large hunting occurs in the liquid concentration based on the set concentration value, and in the case of insufficient response (large time constant), an offset that does not reach the set value is generated. arise. This device is designed so that the time constant in the integrator can be changed in accordance with the response characteristics of the system, which also changes depending on the flow rate of dialysate, and can be set experimentally before using this device. I have to.
