[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquor production, and particularly relates to a liquor aging acceleration device and method. Background Art

[0002] Liquor is a distilled liquor mainly made from grain, with daqu, xiaoqu, bran koji, enzyme preparations, yeast, etc. as saccharifying and fermenting agents. It is made by steaming, saccharifying, fermenting, distilling, aging, and blending. During the liquor production process, in order to shorten the aging period, liquor aging acceleration treatment is carried out. The current aging acceleration method is to add an aging accelerator to the liquor and stir it, so as to accelerate the aging of the liquor.

[0003] Currently, when adding an aging accelerator to liquor, generally, workers add the amount based on experience, which is not convenient for workers to add the aging accelerator proportionally according to the different volumes of liquor. This not only increases the workload of workers, but also leads to inaccurate addition of the aging accelerator, affecting the aging acceleration effect. Summary of the Invention

The side wall of the wine inlet pipe penetrates through the inner top of the treatment tank. The lower part of the inner wall of the treatment tank is fixedly communicated with a wine outlet pipe, and a valve is installed in the wine outlet pipe;

[0008] An aging acceleration mechanism, the aging acceleration mechanism includes a floating plate. The lower end of the slide plate is connected to the upper end of the floating plate through a connecting mechanism. The upper end of the slide plate is fixedly connected with two liquid pumping frames. The inner walls of the two liquid pumping frames are hermetically and slidably connected with T-shaped plates. The upper ends of the two T-shaped plates are fixedly connected to the inner top of the treatment tank. The bottom of the two liquid pumping frames is fixedly connected with a one-way liquid outlet pipe communicated with the lower end of the slide plate;

[0009] A stirring mechanism for stirring the liquor in the treatment tank is arranged on the slide plate.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes a first annular groove opened at the upper end of the floating plate. The inner wall of the first annular groove is slidably connected with a rotatable ring, and the upper end of the ring is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slide plate.

[0011] Preferably, a first pipe is fixedly connected and communicated between the inner walls of the two liquid pumping frames, and a one-way liquid inlet pipe is fixedly connected and communicated with the inner wall of one of the liquid pumping frames.

[0012] Preferably, the stirring mechanism includes a rifled rod rotatably connected to the side wall of the sliding plate and the side wall of the floating plate. The threaded part of the side wall of the rifled rod is located above the sliding plate. A plurality of stirring rods are fixedly connected to the side wall of the rifled rod below the sliding plate. A threaded cylinder is rotatably connected to the upper end of the treatment tank, and the side wall of the rifled rod is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, a limiting mechanism is provided on the treatment tank. The limiting mechanism includes a self-locking motor fixedly connected to the upper end of the treatment tank.

[0014] Preferably, a circular groove is opened at the upper end of the threaded cylinder. A plurality of stripe sacs are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circular groove. The upper end of the treatment tank is fixedly connected with a fixing ring through a bracket. A second annular groove is opened on the inner side wall of the fixing ring.

The outer side wall of the rotating ring is communicated with the inner walls of the plurality of stripe sacs through a plurality of second pipes respectively. An oil inlet pipe is fixedly connected and communicated with the inner wall of the second annular groove.

[0015] A method for aging white liquor includes the following steps:

[0016] S1. Add white liquor into the treatment tank through the liquor inlet pipe. At this time, the floating plate moves upward under the buoyancy of the white liquor.

[0020] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of the present invention are as follows:

[0021] 1. An aging mechanism is set up, and the liquor is added into the processing box through the liquor inlet pipe. At this time, the float plate moves up under the buoyancy of the liquor, and the float plate drives the slide plate to move up through the circular ring, and drives the two pump liquid frames to move up, so that the two T-shaped plates slide in the two pump liquid frames respectively, and the aging agent in the two pump liquid frames is squeezed into the processing box through the one-way liquid outlet pipe. In this way, the aging agent can be added according to the amount of liquor in the processing box, avoiding the staff relying on experience to add the amount in the prior art, which is not convenient for the staff to add the aging agent in proportion according to the different volumes of liquor, which not only increases the workload of the staff, but also causes the amount of aging agent added to be inaccurate, affecting the aging effect.

[0022] 2. After the liquor is aged, open the valve on the liquor outlet pipe to discharge the liquor. At this time, under the action of multiple springs, the slide plate moves downward, driving the two pump liquid frames to move downward, so that the pump liquid frames can absorb the aging agent in the outside world through the one-way liquid inlet pipe, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0023] 3. A stirring mechanism and a limiting mechanism are set. When the self-locking motor does not rotate, under the meshing action of the first gear and the second gear, the threaded barrel does not rotate. As the slide plate moves upward, the rifle rod moves upward. Under the action of the threaded barrel, the rifle rod moves upward and rotates, driving multiple stirring rods to rotate, thereby stirring and aging the liquor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , a liquor aging acceleration device includes a processing tank 1. A slide plate 2 is hermetically and slidably connected to the inner wall of the processing tank 1.

Two liquid pumping frames 9 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the slide plate 2. T-shaped plates 10 are hermetically and slidably connected to the inner walls of the two liquid pumping frames 9. The upper ends of the two T-shaped plates 10 are fixedly connected to the inner top of the processing tank 1. One-way liquid outlet pipes 11 communicated with the lower end of the slide plate 2 are fixedly connected to the bottoms of the two liquid pumping frames 9.

[0031] The connecting mechanism includes a first annular groove 7 opened at the upper end of the floating plate 6. A rotatable circular ring 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first annular groove 7. The upper end of the circular ring 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slide plate 2.

[0032] A first pipe 12 is fixedly communicated between the inner walls of the two liquid pumping frames 9. A one-way liquid inlet pipe 13 is fixedly communicated with the inner wall of one of the liquid pumping frames 9.

[0033] Add liquor into the processing tank 1 through the wine inlet pipe 4. At this time, the floating plate 6 moves upward under the buoyancy of the liquor. The upward movement of the floating plate 6 drives the slide plate 2 to move upward through the circular ring 8, driving the two liquid pumping frames 9 to move upward, so that the two T-shaped plates 10 slide in the two liquid pumping frames 9 respectively, and the aging accelerator in the two liquid pumping frames 9 is extruded into the processing tank 1 through the one-way liquid outlet pipes 11. In this way, the aging accelerator can be added according to the amount of liquor in the processing tank 1 by itself, avoiding the situation in the prior art where workers add the amount based on experience, and it is not convenient for workers to add the aging accelerator proportionally according to different liquor capacities, which not only increases the workload of workers, but also leads to inaccurate addition amount of the aging accelerator and affects the aging effect.

[0034] And after the liquor is aged, at this time, open the valve on the wine outlet pipe 5 to discharge the liquor. At this time, under the action of the multiple springs 3, the slide plate 2 is driven to move downward, driving the two liquid pumping frames 9 to move downward, so that the liquid pumping frames 9 can absorb the aging accelerator located outside through the one-way liquid inlet pipes 13 by themselves, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0035] The skateboard 2 is provided with a stirring mechanism for stirring the white liquor in the treatment tank 1. The stirring mechanism includes a rifled rod 14 rotatably connected to the side wall of the skateboard 2 and the side wall of the floating plate 6. The thread on the side wall of the rifled rod 14 is located above the skateboard 2. A plurality of stirring rods 15 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the rifled rod 14 below the skateboard 2. The upper end of the treatment tank 1 is rotatably connected with a threaded cylinder 16, and the side wall of the rifled rod 14 is threadedly connected with the inner wall of the threaded cylinder 16.

[0036] The treatment tank 1 is provided with a limiting mechanism. The limiting mechanism includes a self-locking motor 17 fixedly connected to the upper end of the treatment tank 1. A first gear 18 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable shaft of the self-locking motor 17. A second gear 19 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the threaded cylinder 16. The first gear 18 and the second gear 19 are meshed with each other.

[0037] When the self-locking motor 17 does not rotate, at this time, under the meshing action of the first gear 18 and the second gear 19, the threaded cylinder 16 does not rotate. Since the upward movement of the skateboard 2 drives the upward movement of the rifled rod 14, at this time, under the action of the threaded cylinder 16, the rifled rod 14 rotates while moving upward, driving a plurality of stirring rods 15 to rotate, and stirring the aging of the white liquor.

[0038] A circular groove 20 is opened at the upper end of the threaded cylinder 16. A plurality of stripe sacs 21 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circular groove 20. The upper end of the treatment tank 1 is fixedly connected with a fixing ring 22 through a bracket. A second annular groove 23 is opened on the inner side wall of the fixing ring 22. A rotatable ring 24 that can rotate by itself is hermetically slidably connected to the inner wall of the second annular groove 23. The inner side wall of the rotatable ring 24 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the threaded cylinder 16. The outer side wall of the rotatable ring 24 is respectively communicated with the inner walls of a plurality of stripe sacs 21 through a plurality of second pipes 25. An oil inlet pipe 26 is fixedly communicated with the inner wall of the second annular groove 23.

[0039] When stopping adding white liquor to the treatment tank 1, at this time, hydraulic oil is added to the second annular groove 23 through the oil inlet pipe 26. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters a plurality of stripe sacs 21 through a plurality of second pipes 25, tightly fitting the rifled rod 14 and the threaded cylinder 16. Subsequently, the self-locking motor 17 is driven to rotate, driving the threaded cylinder 16 to rotate through the first gear 18 and the second gear 19, so that the rifled rod 14 continues to drive a plurality of stirring rods 15 to rotate, increasing the aging effect of the white liquor.

[0040] A method for aging white liquor includes the following steps:

[0041] S1. Add the white liquor to the treatment tank 1 through the wine inlet pipe 4. At this time, the floating plate 6 moves upward under the buoyancy of the white liquor.

[0042] S2. The upward movement of the floating plate 6 drives the upward movement of the skateboard 2 through the circular ring 8, driving the upward movement of the two liquid pumping frames 9, so that the two T-shaped plates 10 slide in the two liquid pumping frames 9 respectively, and extrude the aging agent in the two liquid pumping frames 9 into the treatment tank 1 through the one-way liquid outlet pipe 11.

[0043] S3. The skateboard 2 moves upward, driving the rifling rod 14 to move upward. Under the limit of the self-locking motor 17, at this time, the threaded barrel 16 does not rotate. Thus, the rifling rod 14 rotates while moving upward, driving multiple stirring rods 15 to rotate, for aging and stirring the white liquor.

[0044] S4. When stopping adding white liquor into the treatment tank 1, at this time, hydraulic oil is added into the second annular groove 23 through the oil inlet pipe 26. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters multiple stripe sacs 21 through multiple second pipes 25, closely fitting the rifling rod 14 and the threaded barrel 16. Subsequently, the self-locking motor 17 is driven to rotate, driving the threaded barrel 16 to rotate through the first gear 18 and the second gear 19, so that the rifling rod 14 continues to drive multiple stirring rods 15 to rotate, enhancing the aging effect on the white liquor.

[0045] When aging the white liquor, the white liquor is added into the treatment tank 1 through the liquor inlet pipe 4. At this time, the floating plate 6 moves upward under the buoyancy of the white liquor. The upward movement of the floating plate 6 drives the skateboard 2 to move upward through the circular ring 8, driving the two liquid pumping frames 9 to move upward, such that the two T-shaped plates 10 slide in the two liquid pumping frames 9 respectively, squeezing the aging agent in the two liquid pumping frames 9 into the treatment tank 1 through the one-way liquid outlet pipe 11. In this way, the aging agent can be added according to the amount of white liquor in the treatment tank 1 automatically. When the self-locking motor 17 does not rotate, at this time, under the meshing action of the first gear 18 and the second gear 19, the threaded barrel 16 does not rotate. Since the upward movement of the skateboard 2 drives the rifling rod 14 to move upward, at this time, under the action of the threaded barrel 16, the rifling rod 14 rotates while moving upward, driving multiple stirring rods 15 to rotate, for aging and stirring the white liquor.

[0046] When stopping adding white liquor into the treatment tank 1, at this time, hydraulic oil is added into the second annular groove 23 through the oil inlet pipe 26. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters multiple stripe sacs 21 through multiple second pipes 25, closely fitting the rifling rod 14 and the threaded barrel 16. Subsequently, the self-locking motor 17 is driven to rotate, driving the threaded barrel 16 to rotate through the first gear 18 and the second gear 19, so that the rifling rod 14 continues to drive multiple stirring rods 15 to rotate, enhancing the aging effect on the white liquor.

[0047] And after the white liquor is aged, at this time, the valve located on the liquor outlet pipe 5 is opened to discharge the white liquor. At this time, under the action of multiple springs 3, the skateboard 2 is driven to move downward, driving the two liquid pumping frames 9 to move downward, such that the liquid pumping frame 9 can absorb the aging agent located outside through the one-way liquid inlet pipe 13 by itself, facilitating subsequent processing.

[0048] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitution or change, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
