[0037] Example: See Figure 1-Figure 9 A Chinese medicine processing fermentation tank with a defoaming function comprises a support column 1, a treatment cylinder 11 is arranged at the upper end of the support column 1, a cleaning component 2 is arranged in the inner cavity of the treatment cylinder 11, and bubbles generated in the treatment cylinder 11 are eliminated by the cleaning component 2.
[0038] In this solution, the treatment cylinder 11 is supported by the support column 1 to ensure that the treatment cylinder 11 is in a stable state as a whole during operation. At the same time, the bubbles generated by the reaction are eliminated in cooperation with the removal component 2 to ensure the reaction efficiency, gas exchange, foam overflow and normal operation of the equipment.
[0039] Further, the cleaning assembly 2 includes a fixed plate 22 connected to the treatment cylinder 11, a connection block 21 is provided at the upper end of the fixed plate 22, and an exhaust pipe 221 is evenly provided at the lower end of the fixed plate 22. A rotating shaft 23 is rotatably installed at the lower end of the fixed plate 22, a driving member 24 is provided at the lower end of the rotating shaft 23, and a plurality of guide grooves 231 are provided on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 23, a ring 25 is slidably installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 23, a convex block 251 corresponding to the guide groove 231 is provided on the inner wall of the ring 25, and the outer surface of the convex block 251 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide groove 231.
[0040] In this embodiment, the driving member 24 is a device with power output such as a motor, and is connected to an external control device. When the driving member 24 is started, it synchronously drives the rotating shaft 23 arranged at its output end to rotate. Since a guide groove 231 is provided on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 23, the guide groove 231 cooperates with the protrusion 251 to drive the ring 25 to rotate.
[0041] The upper end of the connecting block 21 is provided with a fixing component such as a fixing column, and a motor is provided inside the fixing column and at the upper end of the connecting block 21. At the same time, an electric telescopic rod is provided inside the fixing column. The connecting block 21 is driven up and down by the electric telescopic rod, and the connecting block 21 is rotated by the motor, so that the flip plate 29 is fitted with the bubbles generated by the fermentation, and the bubbles are broken during rotation.
[0042] The exhaust pipe 221 is a component with wind output, such as a fan, through which the airflow is sprayed onto the bubbles, thereby breaking the bubbles.
[0043] Furthermore, a plurality of positioning rods 26 are arranged on the outer surface of the ring 25 , and the plurality of positioning rods 26 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the ring 25 . At the same time, a steering rod 261 is rotatably installed at one end of the positioning rod 26 away from the ring 25 , and a movable block 27 is arranged at the lower end of the steering rod 261 .
[0044] Specifically, when the ring 25 rotates, the positioning rod 26, the steering rod 261 and the movable block 27 cooperate to make the ring 25 move downward, and then the guide groove 231 is used to limit the ring 25 to ensure that the ring 25 remains stable as a whole when moving.
[0045] Furthermore, a protective rod 28 is provided at the end of the movable block 27, and the end of the protective rod 28 away from the movable block 27 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the driving member 24, and a flip plate 29 is provided at the end of the movable block 27. The airflow derived from the exhaust pipe 221 is controlled by adjusting the angle of the flip plate 29.
[0046] Specifically, when the movable block 27 rotates following the steering rod 261, it is supported by the protective rod 28, so that the movable block 27 rotates around the protective rod 28, thereby driving the flip plate 29 to rotate until it reaches the optimal angle and stops, thereby controlling the direction of the airflow and utilizing the high-speed collision between the jet fluid and the bubbles to break the bubbles in an instant.
[0047] Furthermore, the exhaust assembly 3 is mounted on the outer surface of the treatment barrel 11, and the harmful gas generated during the fermentation process is discharged through the exhaust assembly 3. The exhaust assembly 3 includes a fixed block 31 connected to the treatment barrel 11, and a docking block 32 is provided at one end of the fixed block 31, and a connecting pipe 321 is provided at the end of the docking block 32, and the end of the connecting pipe 321 passes through and extends to the inner cavity of the treatment barrel 11.
[0048] In this embodiment, the gas inside the treatment tube 11 is discharged through the connecting tube 321 and evenly discharged through the docking block 32, which helps to avoid the generation of foam or unstable fermentation environment due to excessive gas accumulation. The connecting tube 321 is connected to the through hole 35.
[0049] Furthermore, a power member 33 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed block 31, a crankshaft 34 is provided on the output end of the power member 33, and two push rods 341 are provided on the outer surface of the crankshaft 34. A through hole 35 corresponding to the push rod 341 is provided at the end of the docking block 32, a piston 36 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the through hole 35, the end of the piston 36 is rotatably connected to the end of the push rod 341, and an extrusion rod 361 is provided at the end of the piston 36.
[0050] Specifically, the power member 33 is a device with power output such as a motor, and is connected to an external control device. When the power member 33 is started, it synchronously drives the crankshaft 34 arranged at its output end to rotate. Since a push rod 341 is rotatably installed on the outer surface of the crankshaft 34, the push rod 341 drives the piston 36 to move, wherein the extrusion rod 361 is a component with a telescopic function such as a telescopic rod.
[0051] Furthermore, a pressing plate 37 is provided on the inner wall of the through hole 35, and the end of the pressing plate 37 is connected to the end of the extrusion rod 361. A protective block 371 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the pressing plate 37, and the outer surface of the protective block 371 is connected to the inner wall of the through hole 35. A sealing plate 372 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the protective block 371, and a first elastic member 373 is provided at the end of the sealing plate 372, and one end of the first elastic member 373 away from the sealing plate 372 is connected to the end of the pressing plate 37.
[0052] Specifically, when the extrusion rod 361 moves, the extrusion pressing plate 37 moves. Since the protective block 371 is connected to the inner wall of the through hole 35, the pressing plate 37 is restricted. At the same time, when the pressing plate 37 moves, the sealing plate 372 is pushed to move, so that a gap is generated between the sealing plate 372 and the protective block 371, which is convenient for the gas to be discharged.
[0053] The first elastic member 373 is an elastic component such as a spring, and the sealing plate 372 is limited by the first elastic member 373. When the extrusion rod 361 returns to its initial position, the sealing plate 372 is again fitted to the protective block 371 by the force of the first elastic member 373 to achieve sealing.
[0054] Furthermore, a slot 38 is provided in the middle of the end of the docking block 32, and the cross section of the slot 38 is T-shaped. A sphere 381 is provided on the inner wall of the slot 38, and a second elastic member 382 is provided on the outer surface of the sphere 381, and one end of the second elastic member 382 away from the sphere 381 is connected to the inner wall of the slot 38. A baffle 383 is provided on the inner wall of the slot 38, and the inner wall of the baffle 383 is in contact with the outer surface of the sphere 381.
[0055] Specifically, when it is necessary to continuously discharge the gas inside the treatment tube 11, the baffle 383 is removed, thereby creating a gap between the sphere 381 and the slot 38, so that the connecting pipe 321 is connected to the outside through the slot 38, and the gas is continuously discharged.
[0056] The control device can select a single-chip microcomputer as the control end. In this embodiment, the single-chip microcomputer is a typical embedded microcontroller (Micro controller Unit), which is composed of an arithmetic unit, a controller, a memory, an input and output device, etc., and is equivalent to a microcomputer. Compared with the general-purpose microprocessor used in personal computers, it emphasizes self-supply (no external hardware) and cost saving. Its biggest advantage is that it is small in size and can be placed inside the instrument, but has a small storage capacity, a simple input and output interface, and low functional consumption.
[0057] The above description is only by way of illustration of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
