[0033] The device bracket 11 is rotatably connected to a screw rod Ⅰ12, the replacement bracket 21 is connected to the screw rod Ⅰ12 by threads, and the device bracket 11 is fixedly connected to a power mechanism Ⅰ for driving the screw rod Ⅰ12 to rotate;

[0034] The rotating base 22 is slidably connected to an insertion pipe 24, and a telescopic mechanism I 23 is fixedly connected to the rotating base 22, and the telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism I 23 is fixedly connected to the insertion pipe 24;

[0035] The bottom of the fermentation barrel 31 is slidably connected to a sliding pipe 32, the top of the sliding pipe 32 is fixedly connected to a sealing plate 33, the bottom of the fermentation barrel 31 is provided with a sealing groove for accommodating the sealing plate 33, and the side of the sliding pipe 32 is provided with a plurality of connecting holes 34;

[0036] The insertion pipe 24 can be inserted into the bottom of the fermentation barrel 31 and contact the sliding pipe 32, and the sliding pipe 32 is pushed into the fermentation barrel 31. At this time, the sliding pipe 32 is connected to the fermentation barrel 31 through a plurality of communication holes 34;

[0037] A temperature control mechanism 35 is provided at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 31;

[0038] The device bracket 11 is fixedly connected with a telescopic mechanism II 41, the telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism II 41 is fixedly connected with a lifting bracket 42, the lifting bracket 42 is slidably connected with a moving seat 44, the lifting bracket 42 is rotatably connected with a screw rod II 43, the moving seat 44 is connected to the screw rod II 43 by threads, the lifting bracket 42 is fixedly connected with a power mechanism II for driving the screw rod II 43 to rotate, the moving seat 44 is rotatably connected with a rotating cylinder 45, the rotating cylinder 45 is fixedly connected with a feed pipe 46, and the moving seat 44 is fixedly connected with a power mechanism III for driving the rotating cylinder 45 to rotate;

[0039] The rotating cylinder 45 is fixedly connected to a driving motor 47, and a screw shaft 48 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 47. The screw shaft 48 is arranged inside the rotating cylinder 45. A plurality of stirring plates 49 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating cylinder 45. A plurality of circulation holes 410 are arranged on the side wall of the rotating cylinder 45.

[0040] The left and right sides of the device bracket 11 are fixedly connected with telescopic mechanisms III 51, and the telescopic ends of the two telescopic mechanisms III 51 are fixedly connected with suction cups 52, and the suction cups 52 can be sucked with barrel covers 61, and the barrel covers 61 can be buckled on the fermentation barrel 31;

[0041] When using, Figure 1As shown, the fermentation barrel 31 is placed on the rotating base 22, and the fermentation barrel 31 is just inserted into the rotating base 22. The power mechanism I is started, and the power mechanism I is preferably a servo motor. The output shaft of the power mechanism I starts to rotate, and the output shaft of the power mechanism I drives the screw rod I 12 to rotate. When the screw rod I 12 rotates, it drives the replacement bracket 21 to move through the thread, so that the replacement bracket 21 slides on the device bracket 11. The output shaft of the power mechanism I can rotate forward and reverse, so that the replacement bracket 21 can slide back and forth on the device bracket 11, so that the device bracket 11 can be replaced. The bracket 11 is arranged to drive the two fermentation barrels 31 to move alternately to the lower end of the rotating cylinder 45. The fermentation barrels 31 moved to the bottom of the rotating cylinder 45 are stirred. The fermentation barrels 31 not located at the lower end of the rotating cylinder 45 are fermentation barrels 31 that have been stirred or fermentation barrels 31 that have not been stirred. The fermentation barrels 31 that have been stirred are removed from the rotating base 22, and new fermentation barrels 31 that have not been stirred are placed on the rotating base 22. Then, by continuously reciprocating the replacement bracket 21, the multiple fermentation barrels 31 are moved to the lower end of the rotating cylinder 45 in sequence, thereby completing the processing of the multiple fermentation barrels 31.

[0042] Further, the power mechanism IV is started, and the power mechanism IV is preferably a servo motor, and the output shaft of the power mechanism IV starts to rotate, and the output shaft of the power mechanism IV drives the rotating base 22 to rotate, and the rotating base 22 drives the fermentation barrel 31 to rotate, that is, the fermentation barrel 31 located at the lower end of the rotating cylinder 45 can rotate to assist in stirring;

[0043] The fermented raw materials are introduced into the rotating drum 45 in advance, and the driving motor 47 is started. The output shaft of the driving motor 47 starts to rotate, and the output shaft of the driving motor 47 drives the screw shaft 48 to rotate. The rotation of the screw shaft 48 generates a downward pushing force, and the screw shaft 48 pushes the fermented raw materials in the rotating drum 45 downward into the fermentation barrel 31;

[0044] The telescopic mechanism II 41 is started. The telescopic mechanism II 41 may be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism II 41 drives the lifting bracket 42 to move, so that the lifting bracket 42 moves up and down. The lifting bracket 42 drives the rotating cylinder 45 to move, and then the height of the rotating cylinder 45 is adjusted, so that the rotating cylinder 45 can be extended into the fermentation barrel 31.

[0045] The power mechanism III is started. The power mechanism III is preferably a servo motor. The output shaft of the power mechanism III starts to rotate. The output shaft of the power mechanism III drives the rotating drum 45 to rotate. The rotating drum 45 drives the plurality of stirring plates 49 to rotate. When the stirring plates 49 rotate, the fermentation raw materials in the fermentation barrel 31 are stirred.

[0046] Furthermore, during the stirring process, the drive motor 47 is started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 47 can drive the screw shaft 48 to rotate. The output shaft of the drive motor 47 can rotate forward and reverse, so that the screw shaft 48 rotates forward or reversely, generating an upward or downward driving force, so that the fermentation raw materials in the fermentation barrel 31 flow into the rotating cylinder 45 or are discharged from the rotating cylinder 45 through the multiple circulation holes 410;

[0047] That is, when the spiral shaft 48 rotates, an upward force is generated, so that the fermentation raw materials in the fermentation barrel 31 are drawn into the rotating cylinder 45 and discharged through the multiple circulation holes 410; when the spiral shaft 48 rotates, a downward force is generated, so that the fermentation raw materials in the fermentation barrel 31 are drawn into the rotating cylinder 45 through the multiple circulation holes 410 and then discharged, thereby forming a flow of the fermentation raw materials and increasing the stirring efficiency;

[0048] Furthermore, the raw material pipeline to be added can be connected to the insertion pipeline 24 in advance, and the telescopic mechanism I23 can be started. The telescopic mechanism I23 can be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism I23 drives the insertion pipeline 24 to move upward, so that the insertion pipeline 24 is pressed against the sliding pipeline 32, so that the sliding pipeline 32 slides upward, so that the sliding pipeline 32 is connected to the fermentation barrel 31 through the multiple connecting holes 34, and then the raw materials to be added are passed into the fermentation barrel 31;

[0049] The processed fermentation barrel 31 moves to the lower end of the side barrel cover 61, and the suction cup 52 can suck the barrel cover 61, and start the telescopic mechanism III51. The telescopic mechanism III51 can be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism III51 drives the barrel cover 61 to move downward, so that the barrel cover 61 is buckled on the fermentation barrel 31, and the suction cup 52 no longer sucks the barrel cover 61. Then, the fermentation barrel 31 is removed from the rotating base 22, and a new fermentation barrel 31 is placed on the rotating base 22, and a new barrel cover 61 is sucked on the suction cup 52. This cycle is repeated to complete the processing of multiple fermentation barrels 31;

[0050] A dairy product fermentation method, the method comprising the following steps:

[0051] Step 1: placing the fermentation barrel 31 on the rotating base 22;

[0052] Step 2: insert the rotating drum 45 into the fermentation barrel 31, inject the fermentation raw materials into the fermentation barrel 31 through the rotating drum 45, and the rotating drum 45 rotates to stir the fermentation raw materials in the fermentation barrel 31;

[0053] Step 3: After the stirring is completed, the replacement bracket 21 is slid to replace the fermentation barrel 31, and the new fermentation barrel 31 is replaced to the lower end of the rotating cylinder 45. The fermentation barrel 31 after the stirring is moved to the lower end of the barrel cover 61 for buckling.
