Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bee pollen processing technology, specifically to a bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking device. Background Technology

[0002] Bee pollen has certain medicinal and health benefits, but it needs to be broken down during processing. There are many existing methods for breaking down bee pollen, among which fermentation can better preserve its nutrients.

[0003] Utility model patent CN207811730U discloses a bee pollen fermentation device, including a base and a control box. A fermentation tank and control box are fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base, with the fermentation tank located to one side of the control box. A pressure gauge is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of one side of the fermentation tank. A sterilization tank is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fermentation tank, and a safety valve is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the upper end of the sterilization tank. A discharge port is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the fermentation tank, and a sealing cap is provided at the lower end of the discharge port. A control console is located on the upper end of the control box, and a display screen and a switch button are fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the front end of the control console.

Real-time data of various indicators of bee pollen in the fermentation tank can be observed directly, and property damage or safety accidents caused by equipment leakage can be effectively avoided.

[0004] However, when the above-mentioned device ferments and breaks down the cell walls of bee pollen, it cannot quickly and effectively expel the gas in the fermentation tank, which can easily lead to over-fermentation or spoilage of the bee pollen. At the same time, after the fermentation and cell wall breaking of bee pollen is completed, it is easy to clump together, which is not conducive to storage or transportation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking device to solve the problems mentioned above.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking device includes a fermentation tank. A feed inlet and an air outlet are provided on one side of the top of the fermentation tank. A turning assembly is provided inside the fermentation tank. A liquid outlet is provided on one side of the bottom of the fermentation tank. A discharge assembly is provided inside the fermentation tank and above the liquid outlet. A filter plate is provided below the discharge assembly. A discharge sealing chute is provided inside the fermentation tank and above the discharge assembly. A sealing plate is slidably installed inside the discharge sealing chute. A drying conveyor belt is provided on one side below the fermentation tank.

[0008] The material turning assembly includes a suspension that is rotatably mounted inside the fermentation tank. The two ends of the suspension are symmetrically arranged with material turning shafts, and a plurality of material turning shovels are symmetrically arranged on the material turning shafts.

[0009] As a further aspect of the present invention: the discharge assembly includes a discharge shaft rotatably disposed inside the fermentation tank and located above the filter plate, the discharge assembly also includes a discharge motor disposed outside the fermentation tank, the output end of the discharge motor is fixedly connected to one end of the discharge shaft, and the discharge shaft is provided with a discharge spiral blade.

[0011] As a further aspect of the present invention: a sealing box is provided on one side below the fermentation tank, and a sealing cylinder is provided inside the sealing box. The protruding end of the sealing cylinder is fixedly connected to the sealing connecting block below the sealing plate.

[0012] As a further aspect of the present invention: a pollution prevention tank is provided on one side of the fermentation tank, the air outlet on the fermentation tank is inserted into the interior of the pollution prevention tank, and an exhaust port is provided on the top of the pollution prevention tank.

[0013] As a further aspect of the present invention, a temperature-regulating heating wire is provided inside the turning shaft.

[0014] As a further aspect of the present invention: a material turning motor is provided on the top of the fermentation tank, and the output end of the material turning motor is fixedly connected to the suspension.

[0015] As a further aspect of the present invention, the material turning shovel is inclined.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0017] (1) In this invention, the material turning motor can drive the suspension to rotate, which in turn drives the material turning shaft below the suspension to rotate. At this time, the material turning shovel can turn the bee pollen in the fermentation tank. Moreover, the height of the material turning shovels on the two material turning shafts is alternately set, which can increase the comprehensiveness of material turning, so that the carbon dioxide gas in the bee pollen can be released fully and quickly. It can quickly and effectively release the carbon dioxide gas inside the bee pollen during the fermentation and cell wall breaking process, and avoid over-fermentation or deterioration during the fermentation and cell wall breaking process. At the same time, if the temperature inside the fermentation tank is low, the temperature inside the fermentation tank can be adjusted by the temperature-regulating heating wire to ensure better fermentation and cell wall breaking.

[0018] (2) In this invention, the drying conveyor belt is equipped with a drying heating wire for drying the bee pollen that has been broken up above the drying conveyor belt. Baffles are symmetrically set on both sides of the drying conveyor belt to prevent it from falling during the conveying and drying process. A material feeding frame is set between the two baffles. Then, several material feeding brackets are set at equal intervals below the material feeding frame. A material feeding plate is set below each material feeding bracket. Several material distributing claws are set at equal intervals below the material feeding plate. In order to ensure uniformity during the conveying and drying process of bee pollen and to achieve the maximum drying effect, after the fermentation and cell wall breaking is completed, the bee pollen has a certain humidity and viscosity. During the conveying and drying process, the material feeding plate can limit the conveying of bee pollen to ensure that the thickness of the bee pollen during the conveying process can reach the thickness that is easy to dry. This can effectively solve the problem that bee pollen cannot be dried quickly and effectively due to uneven conveying. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, this invention is a bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking device, including a fermentation tank 1. An inlet 10 and an outlet 11 are provided on one side of the top of the fermentation tank 1. A material turning assembly 3 is provided inside the fermentation tank 1. A liquid outlet 14 is provided on one side of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. A discharge assembly 5 is provided inside the fermentation tank 1 and above the liquid outlet 14. A filter plate 13 is provided below the discharge assembly 5. A discharge sealing groove 12 is provided inside the fermentation tank 1 and above the discharge assembly 5. A sealing plate 41 is slidably installed inside the discharge sealing groove 12 for sealing the fermentation tank. The bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is sealed. In addition, a drying conveyor belt 6 is set on one side below the fermentation tank 1. During the fermentation and cell wall breaking process of bee pollen, bee pollen is added into the fermentation tank 1 through the feed inlet 10. At the same time, the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is sealed with a sealing plate 41. During the fermentation of bee pollen, carbon dioxide is produced. If a lot of carbon dioxide is not released quickly, it will easily affect the bee pollen, causing it to deteriorate or over-ferment. The turning component 3 turns the bee pollen during the fermentation process to avoid the situation where carbon dioxide cannot be released during the fermentation process.

[0030] Specifically, the structural design of the material turning component 3 is referenced. Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, the material turning assembly 3 includes a suspension 30 rotatably mounted inside the fermentation tank 1, with turning shafts 32 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the suspension 30. Each turning shaft 32 has a temperature-regulating heating wire 34 inside. Several turning shovels 33 are symmetrically arranged on each turning shaft 32, and the turning shovels 33 are inclined. Additionally, a turning motor 31 is installed at the top of the fermentation tank 1, and its output end is fixedly connected to the suspension 30. The turning motor 31 can drive the suspension 30 to rotate, thereby driving the turning shafts 32 below the suspension 30 to rotate. At this time, the turning shovels 33 can... The bee pollen inside the fermentation tank 1 is turned over, and the height of the turning shovels 33 on the two turning shafts 32 is set alternately to increase the comprehensiveness of turning, so that the carbon dioxide gas in the bee pollen can be released fully and quickly. This can quickly and effectively release the carbon dioxide gas inside the bee pollen during the fermentation and cell wall breaking process, avoiding over-fermentation or spoilage during the fermentation and cell wall breaking process. At the same time, if the temperature inside the fermentation tank 1 is low, the temperature inside the fermentation tank 1 can be adjusted by the temperature regulating heating wire 34 to ensure better fermentation and cell wall breaking.

[0031] Regarding the structural design of the discharge component 5, refer to... Figure 2 As shown, the discharge assembly 5 includes a discharge shaft 51 rotatably disposed inside the fermentation tank 1 and located above the filter plate 13, and a discharge motor 52 disposed outside the fermentation tank 1. The output end of the discharge motor 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the discharge shaft 51, and a discharge spiral blade 53 is provided on the discharge shaft 51. After the bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking are completed, the sealing plate 41 is opened. At this time, the bee pollen after fermentation and cell wall breaking falls onto the filter plate 13. Then, the discharge motor 52 drives the discharge shaft 51 to rotate, which in turn drives the discharge spiral blade 53 on the discharge shaft 51 to rotate, thereby slowly outputting the bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1 from the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 to the drying conveyor belt 6 on one side.

[0032] Regarding the structural design of the drying conveyor belt 6, refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the drying conveyor belt 6 is equipped with a drying heating wire 65 inside, which is used to dry the bee pollen above the drying conveyor belt 6 after the cell wall breaking is completed. Baffles 62 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drying conveyor belt 6 to prevent it from falling during the conveying and drying process. A material feeding frame 61 is set between the two baffles 62. Then, several material feeding brackets 63 are set at equal intervals below the material feeding frame 61. A material feeding plate 64 is set below each material feeding bracket 63. Several material distributing claws 66 are set at equal intervals below the material feeding plate 64. In order to ensure uniformity during the conveying and drying process of bee pollen and to achieve the maximum drying effect, after the fermentation and cell wall breaking is completed, the bee pollen has a certain moisture and viscosity. During the conveying and drying process, the material feeding plate 64 can limit the conveying of bee pollen, ensuring that the thickness of the bee pollen during the conveying process can reach the thickness that is easy to dry. This can effectively solve the problem that bee pollen cannot be dried quickly and effectively due to uneven conveying.

[0033] Secondly, refer to Figure 5 As shown, a sealing box 4 is set on one side below the fermentation tank 1. A sealing cylinder 42 is set inside the sealing box 4. The extended end of the sealing cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to the sealing connecting block 43 below the sealing plate 41. The forward and backward movement of the sealing plate 41 is controlled by the extension and retraction of the sealing cylinder 42, thereby controlling the discharge of bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1.

[0034] In addition, to ensure that bacteria enter the fermentation tank 1 through the vent 11 and affect the fermentation of bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1, a contamination prevention tank 2 can be installed on one side of the fermentation tank 1. The vent 11 on the fermentation tank 1 is inserted into the solution in the contamination prevention tank 2. The solution can be a liquid that can react with carbon dioxide and has bactericidal properties. Then, an exhaust port 21 is installed above the contamination prevention tank 2 to discharge gas, which can effectively prevent external air from entering the fermentation tank 1 and contaminating the bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1.

[0035] Working principle of the invention:

[0036] During the fermentation and cell wall breaking of bee pollen, bee pollen is added into the fermentation tank 1 through the feed inlet 10. During fermentation, the turning motor 31 drives the suspension 30 to rotate, which in turn drives the turning shaft 32 below the suspension 30 to rotate. At this time, the turning shovel 33 turns the bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1. The carbon dioxide produced during fermentation is discharged through the exhaust port 11 into the pollution prevention tank 2, and then discharged through the exhaust port 21. After the bee pollen fermentation and cell wall breaking are completed, the sealing cylinder 42 retracts, controlling the sealing plate 41 to retract. At this time, the fermentation... The bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1 falls onto the filter plate 13. At this time, the liquid in the bee pollen flows out from the outlet 14. Then, the discharge motor 52 drives the discharge shaft 51 to rotate, which in turn drives the discharge spiral blade 53 on the discharge shaft 51 to rotate. This allows the bee pollen in the fermentation tank 1 to be slowly output from the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 to the drying conveyor belt 6 on one side. The bee pollen can then be limited and conveyed by the material guide plate 64 to ensure that the bee pollen is spread to a thickness that is easy to dry during the conveying process, thus obtaining bee pollen with broken cell walls.

[0037] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
