Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic fertilizer production, in particular to an aeration fermentation tank for producing organic fertilizer by utilizing earthworm castings. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern agriculture, the demand for efficient and environmentally friendly organic fertilizers is increasing. As a high-quality organic fertilizer raw material, earthworm manure is highly favored because it is rich in nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. In order to fully utilize the advantages of earthworm manure and improve its value as an organic fertilizer, it is particularly important to adopt a suitable fermentation process. Aerated fermentation tanks, as a technical means that can effectively maintain an aerobic environment, play a key role in the fermentation process of earthworm manure. By laying pipes under the material and using the pipes to draw air from the bottom of the material, the respiration of microorganisms can be effectively supported, the decomposition rate of organic matter can be accelerated, and the fermentation efficiency can be improved.

[0003] However, traditional aerated fermentation tanks face some technical challenges in practical applications, especially for special organic materials such as earthworm manure. When the biofilm (such as actinomycete hyphae) produced during the fermentation process combines with moisture, a colloid will form at the air outlet filter, significantly reducing the air permeability, sometimes even reducing the air permeability by more than 30%. This not only affects the normal progress of the fermentation process, but may also lead to insufficient fermentation, thereby affecting the quality of the final product. Summary of the invention

[0030] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the driving mechanism includes a second worm gear 1001, a second servo motor 1002 and a second worm 1003; the right end of the cleaning brush 9 is connected to the second worm gear 1001; the second servo motor 1002 is installed on the lower rear side of the connecting frame 3, and the second servo motor 1002 is electrically connected to the controller 2; the second worm 1003 is connected to the output shaft of the second servo motor 1002, the second worm 1003 is rotatably connected to the lower right side of the connecting frame 3, and the second worm 1003 is meshed with the second worm gear 1001.

[0031] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inlet and outlet mechanism includes a three-way pipe 1101, a drain valve 1102 and a water injection pipe 1103; a three-way pipe 1101 is installed on the front lower side of the connecting frame 3, and three ports are arranged on the three-way pipe 1101.

[0032] When in use, the material is poured into the loading frame 1, and the material is fermented in the loading frame 1, and then clean water is added to the water injection pipe 1103, so that the clean water enters the three-way pipe 1101, the connecting frame 3 and the water storage tank 5 through the water injection pipe 1103. During this period, the user can judge the clean water level in the water storage tank 5 according to the scale on the water injection pipe 1103, until the clean water level in the water storage tank 5 reaches a specified height (the clean water level in the water storage tank 5 does not exceed the bottom of the hollow drum 6), and then the controller 2 controls the fan 4 to start, so that the fan 4 introduces air into the connecting frame 3, so that air enters the hollow drum 6, so that the air passes through the filter cloth 7 and is discharged into the material in the loading frame 1, thereby effectively supporting the respiration of microorganisms in the material, accelerating the decomposition rate of organic matter, and thus improving the fermentation efficiency. After that, the controller 2 regularly controls the first servo motor 802 to drive the first worm 803 to rotate for a period of time. When the first worm 803 rotates, the first worm 803 drives the first worm wheel 801 and the hollow drum 6 to rotate, so that the filter cloth 7 on the hollow drum 6 is used alternately. The first worm 803 rotates After a period of rotation, the controller 2 automatically controls the first servo motor 802 to drive the first worm 803 to stop rotating, and then regularly controls the second servo motor 1002 to drive the second worm 1003 to rotate for a period of time through the controller 2.

[0033] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a cover shell 13 is also included; a cover shell 13 is installed on the right side of the connecting frame 3, and the cover shell 13 covers the first worm wheel 801, the first worm 803, the second worm wheel 1001 and the second worm 1003, so as to protect the first worm wheel 801, the first worm 803, the second worm wheel 1001 and the second worm 1003.

[0034] By providing a cover shell 13, the cover shell 13 can be used to protect the first worm wheel 801, the first worm 803, the second worm wheel 1001 and the second worm 1003 to prevent the first worm wheel 801, the first worm 803, the second worm wheel 1001 and the second worm 1003 from being hit by foreign objects, thereby extending the service life of the first worm wheel 801, the first worm 803, the second worm wheel 1001 and the second worm 1003.

[0035] See also Figure 8 As shown, a fan 14 is also included; fans 14 are arranged on both sides of the left and right sides of the hollow drum 6, and the fan 14 is used to introduce the airflow at the right end of the hollow drum 6 into the left end, and the fan 14 is electrically connected to the controller 2.

[0036] By setting the fan 14, when the controller 2 controls the blower 4 to start, the controller 2 can also control the fan 14 to start, so that the fan 14 can introduce the airflow at the right end of the hollow drum 6 into the left end, so that the air in the hollow drum 6 can be evenly discharged into the charging frame 1 through the left and right ends of the filter cloth 7, avoiding that the air inside the hollow drum 6 is discharged in large quantities from the right end of the filter cloth 7 and in small quantities from the left end of the filter cloth 7; thereafter, when the controller 2 controls the blower 4 to be turned off, the controller 2 can also control the fan 14 to be turned off.

[0038] By setting up a detection mechanism, when the controller 2 controls the fan 4 to start, the controller 2 can periodically control the extension of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 15, so that the electric push rod 15 pushes the temperature detector 16 into the material in the loading frame 1, so that the temperature of the material is detected by the temperature detector 16. After the temperature detector 16 completes the detection of the temperature of the material, the controller 2 periodically controls the shortening of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 15, so that the electric push rod 15 retracts the temperature detector 16 from the material in the loading frame 1, and the temperature detector 16 sends the detected data to the controller 2, and then the controller 2 controls the blowing power of the fan 4 according to the detected data, so as to automatically adjust the air flow rate blown into the loading frame 1 according to the temperature (different microorganisms have different optimal growth temperature ranges. Within this range, the metabolic activity and reproduction rate of the microorganisms will change with the change of temperature. Generally speaking, within a suitable temperature range, the higher the activity of the microorganisms, the greater the demand for oxygen).
