At the same time, the branch pipe 510 connected to the slide 53 drives the connected slide guide rod 515 to make a circular motion. The slide guide rod 515 contacts the reciprocating guide ring 514 connected to the ring frame 513, so that the slide guide rod 515 slides in the process of sliding with the reciprocating guide ring 514.

The upper and lower slides 53 work alternately to aerate and oxygenate the materials at different locations inside the fermenter 1. This not only improves the efficiency of yeast fermentation, but also promotes the flow rate of the liquid mixture by aerating the materials. The alternating operation increases the frequency of oxygenation and expands the range of the liquid materials exposed to oxygen.

[0019] The bottom turning mechanism 7 includes a sedimentation turntable 71, a plurality of turning bars 72 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sedimentation turntable 71, an upper turning support frame 73 is provided above the sedimentation turntable 71, and a fixed arc plate 74 is fixedly connected to the side of the upper turning support frame 73 away from the slide cylinder 53. A plurality of connecting supports 75 are provided on the side of the fixed arc plate 74. Both ends of each connecting support frame 75 are fixedly connected to a turning box 76, and a guide inclined plate 77 is fixedly connected to the inside of the turning box 76. The sedimentation turntable 71 is fixedly connected to the swing frame 65 located below, and the sedimentation turntable 71 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom surface of the fermentation tank 1. A plurality of turning bars 72 are distributed in a ring array around the center of the sedimentation turntable 71, and the upper turning support frame 73 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slide cylinder 53 located below. A plurality of turning boxes 76 are connected in sequence through the connecting supports 75. The rotation of the slide 53 located at the bottom drives the connected upper flip support frame 73 to rotate with the air, so that the fixed arc plate 74 connected to the upper flip support frame 73 drives the tipping box 76 to make a circular motion around the center of the fermentation tank 1 through the connecting support frame 75, and the swing frame 65 located at the bottom side of the ring frame 513 drives the sedimentation turntable 71, and the rotation of the sedimentation turntable 71 at the bottom side drives the tipping bar 72 to rotate, so that the rotation of the tipping bar 72 pushes the sediment at the bottom, and the tipping box 76 located at the lowest point drives the sediment together with the surrounding liquid materials to flow upward through the internal guide inclined plate 77, and once again guides the bottom side sediment to float upward through the tipping box 76 located on the upper layer. By allowing the sediment material to float upward, it is avoided that the material sedimentation and stacking during the fermentation process prevent the yeast from fully contacting oxygen and affecting the fermentation effect.
[0020] Working principle: The external motor drives the connected drive shaft 51 to rotate, so that the drive shaft 51 drives the slide 53 to rotate through the outer spline vertical bar 52, and the support frame 58 connected to the outer side of the slide 53 stirs the liquid fermentation material in the fermentation tank 1 with a fine nozzle 59. At the same time, the branch pipe 510 connected to the slide 53 drives the connected slide guide rod 515 to make a circular motion. The slide guide rod 515 contacts the reciprocating guide ring 514 connected to the ring frame 513, so that the slide guide rod 515 slides in contact with the reciprocating guide ring 514, guiding the slide guide rod 515 to slide. The slide 53 connected to the branch pipe 510 is pushed upward along the drive shaft 51 to squeeze the plug plate 54. The slide 53 squeezes the plug plate 54 so that the air inside the slide 53 presses the elastic ball 57 in the air extraction port 55 and approaches the plugging valve block 56. As the air inside the slide 53 is compressed, the air in the slide 53 passes through the connected branch pipe 510, so that the branch pipe 510 is unidirectionally transported to the inside of the fine nozzle 59 through the built-in elastic ball 57 and the plugging valve block 56, and is unidirectionally ejected from the small hole on the side of the fine nozzle 59. The small holes will spray out the air with oxygen, increase the range and efficiency of oxygen contact with microorganisms, and thus improve the fermentation efficiency. When the upper slide 53 drives the lower slide 53 to move upward according to the above process through the connection, the upward movement of the lower slide 53 will move away from the inner plug plate 54, and the space will be expanded by the lower slide 53 away from the plug plate 54, allowing air to pass through the ventilation upper pipe 511 connected to the exhaust port 55 on the plug plate 54 to exhaust the air discharged from the air supply port 8 at the top of the inner side of the fermentation tank 1. The air squeezes the elastic ball 57 and pushes the elastic ball 57. The spring fills the interior of the slide 53. When the slide 53 at the bottom moves downward, the slide 53 will discharge the air through the branch pipe 510 according to the above process. At this time, the interior of the slide 53 at the top is in the air extraction state. The upper and lower slides 53 work alternately to aerate and oxygenate the materials at different upper and lower positions in the fermentation tank 1. While improving the yeast fermentation efficiency, the flow rate of the mixture in the liquid material is promoted by aerating the material. The oxygenation frequency is increased by alternating work, and the range of the liquid material exposed to oxygen is expanded. The cleaning mechanism 6 is divided into two parts, the upper part and the lower part. The cleaning mechanism 6 at the top drives the driving gear 64 through the rotation of the driving shaft 51, so that the driving gear 64 drives the inner gear ring 63. The inner gear ring 63 rotates and drives the swing frame 65 connected to the bottom to make a circular motion around the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. When the swing frame 65 moves, it drives the reciprocating guide ring 514 and the slide 53 to rotate relative to each other through the connected ring frame 513. When the material is injected into the fermentation tank 1 through the feed port 4, the material will impinge on the immersed cavity float tube 6. 12 generates buoyancy, allowing the cavity float tube 612 to move upward, driving the bent push rod 610 to push the horizontal push groove 69 of the scraper 66. The horizontal push groove 69 is forced to push the scraper 66 to make the side guide groove 67 slide along the fixed inclined groove guide rod 68 and fit the upper inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. During the fermentation process, the scraper 66 rotates with the swing frame 65 to fit the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 and scrapes off the water vapor attached to the inner wall, preventing the acidic or alkaline substances in the fermentation material from corroding the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. When the fermentation tank 1 is finished, the material inside is transported out through the discharge port 9. At this time, the fermentation tank 1 is in an empty tank state, and the cleaning mechanism 6 located below is used to allow the cleaning mechanism 6 located below to fall through the cavity float tube 612 on the ring frame 513 to push the bent push rod 610 to push the scraper 66 located below. After the material in the fermentation tank 1 is discharged, the cavity float tube 612 has no buoyancy support and slides downward along the vertical slide rod 611, allowing the scraper 66 to adhere to the inner wall of the lower half of the fermentation tank 1 according to the above process. During cleaning, the scraper 66 located below is driven by the swing frame 65 to perform a circular motion to scrape off the material attached to the inner wall of the lower half of the fermentation tank 1. Then, after cleaning, it is rinsed with clean water. The cleaning mechanism 6 cleans the upper and lower parts of the fermentation tank 1 in a time-divided and step-by-step manner, cooperates with the fermentation step, and cleans the fermentation tank 1 by adhering to the cleaning, thereby reducing the cleaning dead corner and further improving the cleaning effect, thereby preventing the material residue from breeding bacteria and affecting subsequent use. The rotation of the slide 53 located at the bottom drives the connected upper flip support frame 73 to rotate with the air, so that the fixed arc plate 74 connected to the upper flip support frame 73 drives the tipping box 76 to make a circular motion around the center of the fermentation tank 1 through the connecting support frame 75, and the swing frame 65 located at the bottom side of the ring frame 513 drives the sedimentation turntable 71, and the rotation of the sedimentation turntable 71 at the bottom side drives the tipping bar 72 to rotate, so that the rotation of the tipping bar 72 pushes the sediment at the bottom, and the tipping box 76 located at the lowest point drives the sediment together with the surrounding liquid materials to flow upward through the internal guide inclined plate 77, and once again guides the bottom side sediment to float upward through the tipping box 76 located on the upper layer. By allowing the sediment material to float upward, it is avoided that the material sedimentation and stacking during the fermentation process prevent the yeast from fully contacting oxygen and affecting the fermentation effect.
