The left and right ends of the fixed seat 91 are fixedly connected with air outlets 97. By designing the exhaust mechanism 9, the interior of the fermentation box 1 can be automatically depressurized and exhausted.

[0032] The present invention is used as follows: during use, the internal environment of the fermentation box 1 can be monitored through the action of the temperature sensor 6 and the humidity sensor 10. When the internal temperature of the fermentation box 1 is high, the air pump 81 is activated, and the air pump 81 sucks the interior of the box 5 through the air guide 83, so that the interior of the box 5 forms a negative pressure state. Then, the external air is sucked in through the air inlet 85. After entering the interior of the box 5, the air is filtered and purified by the filter plate 86, and then the air is input into the fermentation box 1 to achieve cooling. When the internal temperature of the fermentation box 1 is low, when the air pump 81 is used for ventilation, the electric heating wire 84 is activated synchronously to heat the air entering the fermentation box 1, thereby achieving the purpose of ventilation and temperature increase of the internal environment of the fermentation box 1, and convenient temperature adjustment.

[0033] When the air is filtered through the filter plate 86, the motor 87 works at the same time. The output end of the motor 87 drives the rotating shaft 89 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 89 drives the top block 891 to rotate. The rotation of the top block 891 will squeeze the protrusion 892, and the protrusion 892 will drive the filter plate 86 to move horizontally. The filter plate 86 will drive the guide rod 893 to slide along the guide seat 894. The filter plate 86 can squeeze the first spring 895. When the top block 891 rotates and separates from the protrusion 892, the filter plate 86 can shake in the horizontal direction under the elastic action of the first spring 895, so as to prevent the filter plate 86 from being blocked and affecting the air permeability.

[0034] When the humidity inside the fermentation box 1 is high, the air pump 71 works, and the air pump 71 extracts the gas inside the fermentation box 1 through the air inlet 72, and the gas is input into the cabinet 4 through the exhaust port 73. At this time, the solenoid valve of the left connecting port 76 is opened, and the gas will be input into the partition 75 and flow through the drying filter element 77. The drying filter element 77 can absorb moisture from the air, and then the gas will flow back to the inside of the fermentation box 1 through the connecting port 76, thereby achieving the purpose of dehumidifying the internal environment of the fermentation box 1.

[0035] When the humidity inside the fermentation box 1 is low, the air pump 71 works, and the air pump 71 extracts the gas inside the fermentation box 1 through the air inlet 72, and the gas is input into the cabinet 4 through the exhaust port 73. At this time, the solenoid valve of the right connecting port 76 is opened, and the gas will be input into the partition 75 and flow into the water tank 78. The water inside the water tank 78 can humidify the air, and then the gas will flow back to the inside of the fermentation box 1 through the connecting port 76, thereby achieving the purpose of humidifying the internal environment of the fermentation box 1.

[0036] The fermentation box 1 is a sealed structure, which can prevent the exchange with the outside air from affecting the environmental stability of the internal space of the fermentation box 1, and can further improve the fermentation effect of the dough. During the ventilation process inside the fermentation box 1, if the air pressure inside the fermentation box 1 is relatively high, the gas will push the block 92 to move downward, and the block 92 will drive the connecting rod 93 to move downward. The block 92 can squeeze the second spring 94, and at the same time the connecting rod 93 drives the baffle 96 to move downward. At this time, the block 92 is separated from the inner wall of the fixed seat 91, and the baffle 96 is separated from the inner wall of the fixed seat 91. The gas will enter the interior of the fixed seat 91 and be discharged from the air outlet 97. The gas can be automatically depressurized and discharged through the fixed seat 91 to avoid the danger caused by excessive air pressure.
