Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the fermentation technology field of plant extracts, in particular to a fermentation equipment for small molecule plant extracts and an application method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production of cosmetics, composite plant extracts have a variety of applications, including but not limited to: moisturizing; anti-inflammatory and redness reduction; skin lightening; skin tightening; anti-aging; breast beautifying; hair growth, hair loss prevention, and hair darkening; sunscreen; in the raw materials for the preparation of composite plant extracts, because the ball fungus contains a large amount of beta glucan, vitamins and other ingredients, and the mineral content is higher than that of general mushrooms on the market, which endows it with antibacterial, lipid-lowering, anti-tumor, hematopoietic function enhancement, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant pharmacological activities, and the extract also has anti-aging function; and fermentation equipment is inevitably used in the process of plant extract processing.

[0003] For example, a fermentation equipment and method for processing composite plant extracts, with publication number CN118421451B and authorization announcement date 2024-08-23, through the second lifting mechanism to drive the cleaning mechanism and the docking pipe to separate, to provide a space for the movement and rotation of the docking pipe, while the cleaning mechanism moves down, through the first connecting piece and the transmission piece to drive the switch plate to automatically close, to facilitate normal fermentation treatment within the fermentation cover; after the switch plate is closed, the first lifting mechanism can drive the docking pipe and the rotating mechanism to move down as a whole, to realize the separation of the docking pipe and the fermentation cover, when the distance between the docking pipe and the fermentation cover reaches the preset distance, the rotating mechanism can drive the fermentation cover to rotate and adjust, to realize the switching of the positions of the two filter screens, to provide support for cleaning and maintenance, to solve the problem that after the fermentation filter structure is used for a long time, it needs to be cleaned and maintained regularly, and during the fermentation process, the filter equipment needs to be manually removed and cleaned and maintained, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0004] However, in fact, there are other problems in the fermentation stirring process: generally, a stirring mechanism needs to be configured in the fermentation tank, and the purpose of stirring is to avoid the agglomeration of the fermentation material due to long-term static placement in the fermentation liquid, and the use of stirring can break up the agglomerated fermentation material, and also avoid the excessive aggregation of the fermentation material. For fermentation, the stirring needs to be gentle, and the stirring speed needs to be slow. However, in the prior art (including the above-mentioned patent), a hard stirring rod rotating mode is often used, which can easily damage the state of the fermentation material itself, especially the small molecule plant extract which is relatively fragile. In the process of hard stirring, the fermentation material is easily damaged, which affects the fermentation result. Moreover, in the fermentation stirring process, the stirring effect of the hard stirring rod in the fluid is not ideal. When the stirring rod rotates, it is easy to cause vortex effect of the fluid, forming a water flow similar to a vortex. When this phenomenon occurs, the fermentation liquid will carry the fermentation material together and rotate in the tank, and cannot achieve a good effect of breaking up the agglomerates and dispersing the fermentation material.

[0005] At the same time, the cleaning problem of the filter screen also needs to be considered. The fermented broth is filtered out, and the fermented dregs or residues are stuck on the surface of the filter screen or in the filter holes. In the prior art, the filter screen disassembly structure or the multi-filter screen switching mode is usually used, but the problem of filter screen cleaning has not been solved fundamentally, and therefore the filter screen cleaning needs to be improved.

[0006] In view of the above problems, the present application proposes a fermentation equipment and application method capable of integrating the stirring system and the filtering system in the fermentation process on the basis of the original fermentation equipment and application method for small molecule plant extracts, so as to achieve more ideal stirring effect and screening effect in the fermentation process, and simultaneously solve the problem of difficult replacement and cleaning of the filter screen, thereby improving the overall efficiency.

In addition, the stirring effect of the hard stirring rod in the fluid is not ideal, and the fluid easily generates vortex when the stirring rod rotates, forming a water flow similar to a vortex.

[0056] An application method of a small-molecule plant extract fermentation equipment, comprising the following steps:

[0057] S1: fermentation preparation stage:

[0058] The fermentation liquid and the small-molecule plant extract after strict proportioning are poured into the tank through the funnel at the upper end of the cover body 1, and the elastic wire 32 and the elastic net 41 in the tank are in a standing and expanding state in this stage.

[0059] S2: fermentation stirring stage:

[0060] At this time, the first motor 21 is started, the first motor 21 drives the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 to rotate, and when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 rotates, the lower ring 3, the upper ring 4, the elastic net 41 and the elastic lines 32 uniformly distributed on the upper end of the cross 31 are synchronously rotated, and the elastic lines 32 uniformly distributed constitute a unique triangular three-dimensional cross shape, and the elastic lines 32 are pulled tight, and when the special shape of the elastic lines 32 is combined in the conical fermentation tank and rotates, it plays a stirring role on the fermentation liquid and the small molecule plant extract in the tank;

[0061] S3: filtering stage:

[0062] S3-1: the first motor 21 is turned off and the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is started, the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 starts to shrink one by one, when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 shrinks downward, the cross-shaped elastic lines 32 will gradually fall back to the original position, and the center point of the elastic net 41 pulled up from the center will also gradually fall with the shrinking of the multi-stage telescopic rod 2, and the elastic net 41 with the center point gradually falling will gradually become smaller and gather with the reset of the line body, and finally when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is completely retracted, the center point of the elastic net 41 also falls to the lowest point and makes the conical elastic net 41 change into a flat-attitude circular plate;

[0063] S3-2: the flat circular plate forms a "filter screen" in the traditional sense, and the elastic lines 32 are covered under the "filter screen" in the form of cross lines, which will not affect the filtering of the "filter screen", and because there is no upward conical stretching deformation, the more the elastic net 41 falls, the smaller and more gathered the mesh holes will be, and then the second motor 72 is started, the second motor 72 drives the outer rotating ring 7 to rotate counterclockwise outside the cover body 1 through the gear 71, and the arc-shaped tabs equally distributed on the outer wall of the counterclockwise rotating outer rotating ring 7 will one by one correspond to the abutting columns 62 and produce outward extrusion and pushing effect on the abutting columns 62, so that the abutting columns 62 synchronously drive the sliding plates 61 to expand outward and stretch the elastic telescopic rods 63, and the sliding plates 61 synchronously drive the fan-shaped baffles 6 inside the cover body 1 to gradually move away from the center disc 5, and the fan-shaped baffles 6 equally distributed on the outer part of the center disc 5 synchronously move away from the center disc 5, so that the upper fermentation space of the fermentation tank is opened, so that the fermentation liquid can flow down and discharge through the gap between the center disc 5 and the fan-shaped baffles 6, and the dregs in the fermentation liquid are blocked by the "filter screen" changed from the elastic net 41, achieving the filtering effect;

[0064] S4: filter screen cleaning stage:

[0065] When the fermentation liquid is filtered, the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is started again, and the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 gradually extends upward to reset the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 to the standing and opening state in step S1, and the mesh of the elastic net 41 gradually changes from small to large and dispersed to the initial state, so that the dregs can easily pass through, then water is injected into the tank through the funnel at the upper end of the cover body 1, and the first motor 21 is started to drive the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 to rotate synchronously through the multi-stage telescopic rod 2, so that the dregs on the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 are more fully penetrated and discharged. After a certain time of water injection and rotary separation, the dregs in the tank are fully discharged, and subsequent fermentation preparation can be performed.

[0066] Embodiment: First, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the fermentation liquid and the small molecule plant extract are poured into the tank through the funnel at the upper end of the cover body 1, at this time the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 in the tank are in the opening state as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , then the first motor 21 is started, the first motor 21 drives the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 to rotate, and the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 rotates to drive the lower circular ring 3, the upper circular ring 4, the elastic net 41 and the elastic line 32 uniformly distributed on the upper end of the cross 31 to rotate synchronously, and the plurality of uniformly distributed elastic lines 32 form a unique triangular three-dimensional cross shape, and the elastic line 32 is stretched, when the special shaped elastic line 32 is combined in the conical fermentation tank and rotates, it plays a stirring role on the fermentation liquid and the small molecule plant extract in the tank.

[0067] Based on the above method, efficient stirring in the fermentation process of the small molecule plant extract can be realized, and when the fermentation is completed and the fermentation liquid and the dregs need to be separated, first, the first motor 21 is closed and the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is started, the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 starts to shrink one by one downward, when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 shrinks downward, the cross-shaped elastic line 32 will gradually fall back (when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 shrinks to the lowest point, the elastic line 32 will be in a straight line state without being stretched, and the elastic line 32 has a certain elastic deformation ability), at the same time, the center point of the elastic net 41 lifted from the center will gradually fall with the shrinking of the multi-stage telescopic rod 2, and the elastic net 41 with the center point gradually falling will gradually become small and gathered with the resetting of the line body (the elastic net 41 is a conical shape composed of a plurality of warp and weft), and finally when the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is completely retracted, the center point of the elastic net 41 also falls to the lowest point and makes the conical elastic net 41 change into a flat attitude circular plate.

[0068] The plane round plate forms a traditional "filter screen", and the elastic line 32 is covered under the "filter screen" in the form of a cross line, which does not affect the filtering of the "filter screen", and because there is no upward tapered tensile deformation, the more the elastic net 41 falls back, the smaller the mesh of the net will be and the more it will gather, and then the second motor 72 is started, the second motor 72 drives the outer rotating ring 7 to rotate counterclockwise outside the cover body 1 through the gear 71, and the arc-shaped flapper on the outer wall of the counterclockwise rotating outer rotating ring 7 corresponds to the abutment 62 and generates an outward extrusion pushing action on the abutment 62, thereby causing the abutment 62 to synchronously drive the sliding plate 61 to expand outward and stretch the elastic telescopic rod 63, and the sliding plate 61 synchronously drives the sector-shaped baffle 6 inside the cover body 1 to gradually move away from the center disc 5, and the sector-shaped baffle 6 outside the center disc 5 moves away from the center disc 5 at the same angle, so that the upper fermentation space of the fermentation tank is opened, so that the fermentation liquid can flow down and be discharged through the gap between the center disc 5 and the sector-shaped baffle 6, and the dregs in the fermentation liquid are blocked by the "filter screen" converted by the elastic net 41, achieving the filtering effect.

[0069] Finally, when the fermentation liquid is filtered, the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 is started again, and the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 gradually extends upward to reset the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41. Figure 4 to the initial state of the large and dispersed, so that the dregs can easily pass through, and then water is injected into the tank through the funnel on the upper end of the cover body 1, and the first motor 21 is started to drive the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 to rotate synchronously through the multi-stage telescopic rod 2, so that the dregs on the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41 are more fully penetrated and discharged, and after a certain time of water injection and rotation separation, the dregs in the tank are fully discharged, and subsequent fermentation preparation can be carried out.

[0070] The present application ingeniously combines the stirring system and the filtering system in fermentation into one by using the posture transformation of the elastic line 32 and the elastic net 41, and uses the unique triangular three-dimensional cross-shaped elastic line 32 as a "stirring rod" which can stir the tank without dead angle when rotating, and the stirring is more sufficient, and the special "stirring rod" only has a stirring effect on the small molecule plant extract which needs to be dispersed, so that the small molecule plant extract can be fully dispersed and dispersed in the fermentation liquid, and has the advantage that when the liquid is stirred, the liquid and the fermentation material will not produce vortex effect like the traditional hard stirring rod, which affects the stirring effect, and for the dispersion of the fermentation material in the fermentation liquid, it has higher pertinence, sufficiency and comprehensiveness.

[0071] Meanwhile, the switching of the conical lifting state and the flat state of the elastic net 41 can realize the switching of the "small and gathered" state and the "large and dispersed" state of the mesh of the elastic net 41, so that the elastic net 41 can be converted into a "filter screen" in the traditional sense. After filtering the dregs, the elastic net 41 can be lifted to open the mesh to make the "filter screen" invalid and cooperate with the flushing to directly discharge the dregs. It is simple and efficient, and according to the specifications of different small molecule plant extracts, the retraction amount of the multi-stage telescopic rod 2 can be adaptively adjusted, so as to adaptively adjust the spacing of the elastic wire 32 and the aperture of the elastic net 41, so as to meet the filtering and stirring of dregs of different specifications of fermented materials.

7. The use of a small molecule plant extract fermentation apparatus, characterized by The fermentation equipment is applied to a fermentation process of a small-molecule plant extract, and the fermentation process comprises the following steps: S1: fermentation preparation stage: The fermentation liquid and the small-molecule plant extract are poured into the tank through the funnel at the upper end of the cover body (1), and the elastic wires (32) and the elastic net (41) in the tank are in the erected and opened state in this stage; S2: fermentation stirring stage: At this time, the first motor (21) is started, the first motor (21) drives the multi-stage telescopic rod (2) to rotate, and the multi-stage telescopic rod (2) rotates and drives the lower circular ring (3), the upper circular ring (4), the elastic net (41) and the elastic wires (32) uniformly distributed on the upper end of the cross (31) to rotate synchronously, and the plurality of elastic wires (32) uniformly distributed form a unique triangular three-dimensional cross shape, and the elastic wires (32) are pulled tight, and when the special-shaped elastic wires (32) are combined in the conical fermentation tank and rotate, they can stir the fermentation liquid and the small-molecule plant extract in the tank; S3: filtration stage: S3-1: turn off the first motor (21) and start the multi-stage telescopic rod (2), the multi-stage telescopic rod (2) starts to shrink one by one, when the multi-stage telescopic rod (2) shrinks downward, the elastic wires (32) in the cross shape will gradually fall back to the original position, at the same time, the center point of the elastic net (41) pulled up from the center will also gradually fall with the shrinking of the multi-stage telescopic rod (2), and the elastic net (41) with the center point gradually falling is opposite to the elastic wires (32), that is, the mesh of the elastic net (41) will gradually become smaller and gather with the reset of the wire body, and finally when the multi-stage telescopic rod (2) is completely retracted, the center point of the elastic net (41) also falls to the lowest point and makes the conical elastic net (41) change into a circular plate in a flat posture. S3-2: The flat circular plate forms a "filter screen" in the traditional sense, and the elastic line (32) is covered under the "filter screen" in the form of a cross line, which does not affect the filtering of the "filter screen". Moreover, due to the absence of upward conical stretching deformation, the elastic net (41) falls back and its mesh becomes smaller and more concentrated. Then the second motor (72) is started, which drives the outer rotating ring (7) to rotate counterclockwise outside the cover body (1) through the gear (71). The counterclockwise rotating outer rotating ring (7) has arc-shaped tabs at equal angles on its outer wall, which correspond to the abutments (62) one by one and produce outward extrusion and pushing action on the abutments (62), so that the abutments (62) drive the sliding plate (61) to penetrate the cover body (1) and expand outward and stretch the elastic expansion rod (63). The sliding plate (61) drives the fan-shaped baffle (6) inside the cover body (1) to gradually move away from the center disc (5). Similarly, the fan-shaped baffles (6) outside the center disc (5) move away from the center disc (5) at equal angles, so that the upper fermentation space of the fermentation tank is opened, allowing the fermentation liquid to flow down and discharge through the gap between the center disc (5) and the fan-shaped baffle (6), and the dregs in the fermentation liquid are blocked by the "filter screen" transformed from the elastic net (41), achieving the filtering effect. S4: Filter screen cleaning stage: After the fermentation liquid is filtered, the multi-stage expansion rod (2) is started again, which gradually extends upward to reset the elastic line (32) and the elastic net (41) to the raised and opened state in step S1. The mesh of the elastic net (41) gradually changes from small and concentrated to large and dispersed, allowing the dregs to pass through. Then water is injected into the tank through the funnel at the upper end of the cover body (1), and the first motor (21) is started to rotate the elastic line (32) and the elastic net (41) synchronously through the multi-stage expansion rod (2), so that the dregs on the elastic line (32) and the elastic net (41) are discharged. After water injection and rotation separation, the dregs in the tank are fully discharged.
