Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of koji grass separation technology, and specifically relates to a koji grass separation device. Background Technology

[0002] In the relationship between koji (fermentation starter) and liquor, koji plays a dominant role. Although liquor existed before koji, it was ultimately produced by koji-like microorganisms acting on sugars or starches; koji was simply the precursor to these microorganisms. With the advent of koji-making technology, the liquor industry achieved large-scale, standardized, and advanced development. From then on, liquor became inseparable from koji, and koji determined the quality of the liquor.

[0003] After the koji-making workshop breaks down the koji, broken koji and straw are mixed together. It is necessary to separate the useful broken koji and put them into the dry koji warehouse. Currently, the method used to separate the koji and straw is to first perform preliminary manual sorting to select out the large koji blocks, and then perform electric winnowing to sort out the straw and koji powder. However, in order to achieve integration, both workstations require manual assistance, which is not conducive to automated production. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the problems raised in the background art above, the object of the present invention is to provide a koji grass separation device.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A koji grass separating device includes a feeding mechanism, an output end of which is connected to a lifting mechanism, an output end of which is connected to a separating mechanism, a dust removal mechanism installed beside the separating mechanism, an output end of which is connected to a discharging mechanism, and an output end of which is connected to a koji grass collecting frame.

[0007] The feeding mechanism includes a belt conveyor, which is horizontally installed on the ground;

[0008] The lifting mechanism includes two sets of chain conveyor belts, which are installed in parallel with overlapping inner and outer sides. Both sets of chain conveyor belts are perpendicular to the belt conveyor. Both sets of chain conveyor belts are equipped with pallets. When the two sets of chain conveyor belts run synchronously, the pallets make horizontal, cyclical up-and-down movements. When the pallets move to the top, one set of chain conveyor belts runs first, causing the pallets to tilt. Then the other set of chain conveyor belts follows, causing the pallets to return to horizontal.

[0009] The separation mechanism includes a separation cylinder with a guide cylinder mounted on top. An annular scraper frame is installed inside the separation cylinder, and scrapers are evenly mounted on the annular scraper frame. A double torsion spring is mounted on the mounting shaft of each scraper. The scrapers are J-shaped, with the curved ends of all the scrapers facing the center of the annular scraper frame. A fan is connected to one side of the separation cylinder, and an annular air duct is connected to the other side of the separation cylinder. The input end of the annular air duct is opposite to the output end of the fan. The output end of the annular air duct is connected to the dust removal mechanism, and the output end of the separation cylinder is connected to the feeding mechanism.

[0010] The dust removal mechanism includes a suction pipe connected to the output end of the annular air duct, a dust collector connected to the output end of the suction pipe, a collection bucket connected to the lower output end of the dust collector, and an electrical control box installed on the side of the dust collector.

[0011] The feeding mechanism includes a conical guide barrel, a roller conveyor belt is installed on the upper side of the conical guide barrel, and a collection frame is installed on the lower side of the conical guide barrel.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism, the separating mechanism, and the dust removal mechanism are all equipped with protective shells on their outer sides. This design serves a protective function while also enhancing the overall support effect.

[0013] Furthermore, the output end of the belt conveyor is equipped with a guide plate, a design that facilitates moving the curved block to a designated position.

[0014] Furthermore, the scraper is installed in two sets, with the two sets of scrapers installed alternately one above the other. This design increases the contact area with the curved block, and the staggered arrangement is more conducive to the separation of the curved block from the grass.

[0015] Furthermore, the dust collector is a cyclone separator, a design that provides good dispersion and facilitates the purchase of spare parts.

[0016] Furthermore, the roller conveyor belt has two layers, with a telescopic cylinder connected to the end of the lower roller conveyor belt. This design allows the lower roller conveyor belt to change its distance intermittently by controlling the intermittent operation of the telescopic cylinder, thereby controlling the stacking effect of the curved blocks in the crimping frame.

[0017] Furthermore, the collection bucket is equipped with a baffle at its output end. This design allows for the accumulation of koji, enabling the entire fermentation chamber to be cleaned up in one go after dismantling.

[0018] Furthermore, the output end of the separating cylinder is hinged with a mesh baffle. This design effectively blocks the grass but not the curved block.

[0019] The beneficial effects of using the present invention are as follows:

[0020] This invention achieves automated separation of koji and grass, with manual labor only required for feeding. Furthermore, automated equipment can be used for feeding. The koji-grass separation and grass processing structures are integrated, requiring no manual assistance, which is conducive to automated production line production and ensures efficiency.

[0035] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0036] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a grass separation device of the present invention includes a feeding mechanism 1, a lifting mechanism 2 connected to the output end of the feeding mechanism 1, a separation mechanism 3 connected to the output end of the lifting mechanism 2, a dust removal mechanism 4 installed on the side of the separation mechanism 3, a discharging mechanism 5 connected to the output end of the separation mechanism 3, and a grass collection frame 6 connected to the output end of the discharging mechanism 5.

[0037] The feeding mechanism 1 includes a belt conveyor 101, which is horizontally installed on the ground;

[0038] The lifting mechanism 2 includes two sets of chain conveyor belts 201. The two sets of chain conveyor belts 201 are installed in parallel with an inner and outer overlap. Both sets of chain conveyor belts 201 are perpendicular to the belt conveyor 101. The two sets of chain conveyor belts 201 are equipped with pallets 202. When the two sets of chain conveyor belts 201 run synchronously, the pallets 202 make horizontal circular up and down movements. When the pallets 202 move to the top, one set of chain conveyor belts 201 runs first, causing the pallets 202 to tilt. Then the other set of chain conveyor belts 201 follows, making the pallets 202 horizontal again.

[0039] The separation mechanism 3 includes a separation cylinder 301, a guide cylinder 302 installed on the top of the separation cylinder 301, an annular scraper frame 303 installed inside the separation cylinder 301, scrapers 304 evenly installed on the annular scraper frame 303, a double torsion spring 305 installed on the mounting shaft of the scraper 304, the scraper 304 is J-shaped, and the curved ends of all scrapers 304 face the center of the annular scraper frame 303. A fan 306 is connected to the side of the separation cylinder 301, and an annular air duct 307 is connected to the other side of the separation cylinder 301. The input end of the annular air duct 307 is opposite to the output end of the fan 306. The output end of the annular air duct 307 is connected to the dust removal mechanism 4, and the output end of the separation cylinder 301 is connected to the feeding mechanism 5.

[0040] The dust removal mechanism 4 includes a suction pipe 401 connected to the output end of the annular air duct 307. The output end of the suction pipe 401 is connected to a dust collector 402. The lower output end of the dust collector 402 is connected to a collection bucket 403. An electrical control box 404 is installed on the side of the dust collector 402.

[0041] The feeding mechanism 5 includes a conical guide barrel 501, a roller conveyor belt 502 is installed on the upper side of the conical guide barrel 501, and a collection frame 503 is installed on the lower side of the conical guide barrel 501.

[0042] In this embodiment, when using a grass-separation device, grass-containing blocks are placed on a belt conveyor 101. This placement can be done manually or automatically. Under the effect of the belt conveyor 101, the grass blocks are transferred to a tray 202 on a chain conveyor 201. Then, the chain conveyor 201 lifts and moves the tray 202 and the grass blocks placed on the tray 202 together. After reaching the top, one set of chain conveyors 201 runs first, causing the tray 202 to tilt. Under this tilt, the grass blocks on the tray 202 enter the guide cylinder 302 under their own weight. Then, the other set of chain conveyors 201 follows, making the tray 202 horizontal again for the next lifting and placement of grass blocks.

[0043] Under the influence of the guide cylinder 302, the curved block enters the separation cylinder 301 and, under its own weight, enters the annular scraper frame 303. Under the weight of the curved block and the effect of the double torsion spring 305, the scraper 304 changes angle and maintains contact with the curved block. Under this contact and the cutting action of the scraper, the straw on the surface of the curved block is separated. The separated curved block and straw fall together, and at the same time, the wind force of the fan 306 blows the straw and dust into the annular air duct 307, and is sucked into the dust collector 402 through the suction pipe 401 for the separation of solid materials and powdery substances. The curved block and broken pieces fall onto the roller conveyor belt 502 through the output end of the separation cylinder 301 and are transferred to the collection frame 6 by the roller conveyor belt 502. During the movement of the roller conveyor belt 502, the straw remaining on the curved block falls into the collection frame 503 through the conical guide bucket 501 while rolling.

[0044] In summary, the automatic separation of the curved blocks and grass is achieved, and the grass is also separated by the dust removal mechanism 4 and enters the collection bucket 403, which is conducive to subsequent collection and reuse.

[0045] The lifting mechanism 2, the separation mechanism 3, and the dust removal mechanism 4 are preferably equipped with protective shells on their outer sides. This design not only provides protection but also enhances the overall support effect. In fact, the structure for protection and support can also be considered according to the specific situation.

[0046] The preferred belt conveyor 101 has a guide plate 102 installed at its output end. This design facilitates moving the curved block to a designated position. In practice, a guide structure can also be considered depending on the specific circumstances.

[0047] The preferred scraper 304 is installed in two sets, which are staggered one above the other. This design increases the contact area with the curved block, and the staggered arrangement is more conducive to the separation of the curved block and the grass. In fact, the installation structure of the scraper 304 can also be considered according to the specific situation.

[0048] The preferred dust collector 402 is a cyclone separator. This design provides good dispersion and facilitates the purchase of spare parts. In fact, the choice of dust collector 402 can also be considered depending on the specific circumstances.

[0049] The preferred roller conveyor belt 502 has two layers. The lower roller conveyor belt 502 has a telescopic cylinder 504 connected to its end. With this design, the intermittent operation of the telescopic cylinder 504 can drive the lower roller conveyor belt 502 to change the distance intermittently, thereby controlling the stacking effect of the curved blocks in the collecting frame 6. In fact, auxiliary stacking measures can also be considered according to the specific situation.

[0050] The preferred collection bucket 403 has a baffle 405 installed at the output end. This design can achieve the purpose of accumulation. After the fermentation chamber is dismantled, it can be cleaned up at once. In fact, collection measures can also be considered according to specific circumstances.

[0051] The output end of the preferred separator 301 is hinged with a mesh block 308. This design effectively blocks the grass but not the curved block. In fact, blocking measures can also be considered depending on the specific situation.

[0052] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
