[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0016] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0019] In one embodiment of the present invention, a resistance wire or heating element should be installed in the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 to heat the edible fungi inside the fermentation tank 1 and keep them within a suitable fermentation temperature. During use, the edible fungi are mixed by the directional stirring mechanism 100. The directional stirring mechanism 100 also drives the circulating swing mechanism 200 to rotate through the synchronous transmission mechanism 300 to prevent the edible fungi from accumulating. In conjunction with the real-time deflection mechanism 400, the fermented edible fungi are quickly discharged.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the directional stirring mechanism 100 includes a longitudinal rotating shaft 3, a stirring blade 4, a stirring blade 5, and a fixing frame 7. The longitudinal rotating shaft 3 is rotatably mounted on the fermentation tank 1. Multiple stirring blades 4 are provided, and the stirring blades 4 are arranged at equal intervals on the longitudinal rotating shaft 3. The stirring blades 5 are fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the longitudinal rotating shaft 3. The fixed frame 7 is arranged at the top of the fermentation tank 1, and the drive motor 8 is mounted on the fixed frame 7 and connected to the longitudinal rotating shaft 3 through a coupling.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of through holes 6 are uniformly provided on the stirring blade 4 to reduce the resistance when the stirring blade 4 rotates. The longitudinal rotating shaft 3 rotates under the drive of the drive motor 8, and the stirring blade 4 and the stirring blade 5 rotate synchronously to mix the edible fungi entering the fermentation tank 1.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the synchronous transmission mechanism 300 includes a bevel gear 9, a transverse rotating shaft 10, a bevel gear 11, a transverse rotating shaft 12, a pulley 13, a synchronous belt 14, and a pulley 15.

The first bevel gear 9 is mounted on the longitudinal rotating shaft 3, and the second bevel gear 11 is mounted on the end of the transverse rotating shaft 10. The first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 11 mesh with each other.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the longitudinal rotating shaft 3 rotates, it also drives the transverse rotating shafts 10 on both sides to rotate simultaneously through the bevel gear 9 and bevel gear 11. When the pulley 13 rotates with the transverse rotating shaft 10, it also drives the pulley 15 and the transverse rotating shaft 12 to rotate through the synchronous belt 14, thereby driving the circulating swing mechanism 200 to rotate synchronously.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cyclic swing mechanism 200 includes a movable sleeve 17, a movable rod 18, and a scraping layer 19. The movable sleeve 17 is arranged inside the fermentation tank 1 and connected to the transverse rotating shaft 12. The movable rod 18 is slidably installed on the movable end of the movable sleeve 17. The movable rod 18 is also connected to the elastic support installed inside the movable sleeve 17. The scraping layer 19 is disposed on the side of the movable sleeve 18 and abuts against the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. The scraping layer 19 is made of rubber material to prevent the scraping layer 19 from getting stuck in the movable sleeve 17.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, the movable sleeve 17 moves along the inner wall of the fermentation box 1 when it rotates with the transverse rotating shaft 12, while the movable sleeve rod 18 automatically retracts due to the elastic support when it rotates with the movable sleeve 17, so as to automatically tap the fermentation box 1. When the movable sleeve 17 and the scraper 19 come into contact with the inner wall of the fermentation box 1, they automatically scrape off the edible fungi attached to the inner wall of the fermentation box 1, which can effectively prevent the edible fungi from accumulating on the inner wall of the fermentation box 1.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the real-time deflection mechanism 400 includes a base frame 20, a drive shaft 21, and a drive motor 22; The bottom frame 20 is arranged on the outside of the fermentation box 1, and the drive shaft 21 is rotatably mounted on the bottom frame 20 and fixedly connected to the fermentation box 1. The second drive motor 22 is mounted on the outside of the bottom frame 20, and the second drive motor 22 is connected to the drive shaft 21 in a transmission manner; A magnetic pole 23 is installed on the outside of the fermentation box 1, and an electromagnet 24 is installed on the inside of the bottom frame 20.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, a temperature and humidity detector 25 is installed inside the fermentation box 1. The temperature and humidity detector 25 is also electrically connected to a controller 16 installed on the outside of the bottom frame 20, so as to detect the temperature and humidity inside the fermentation box 1. In conjunction with the resistance wire or heating element inside the fermentation box 1, the temperature inside the fermentation box 1 is adjusted in a timely manner to maintain the edible fungi at a suitable fermentation temperature.

[0028] Furthermore, after the fermentation of edible fungi inside the fermentation box 1 is completed, the controller 16 controls the drive motor 22 to work and drive the drive shaft 21 to rotate along the bottom frame 20. Since the drive shaft 21 is fixedly connected to the fermentation box 1, the fermentation box 1 and the feeding pipe 2 rotate synchronously. After the feeding pipe 2 is tilted to a certain angle, the sealing plug on the feeding pipe 2 is removed, and the edible fungi inside the fermentation box 1 are discharged obliquely downward.

[0029] In summary, during actual use, edible fungi are added into fermentation tank 1 along the feeding pipe 2. The longitudinal rotating shaft 3 rotates under the drive of the first drive motor 8, and the first stirring blade 4 and the second stirring blade 5 rotate synchronously to mix the edible fungi entering fermentation tank 1. This, combined with the resistance wire or heating element inside fermentation tank 1, heats the edible fungi inside, ensuring they are at a suitable fermentation temperature. Simultaneously, as the longitudinal rotating shaft 3 rotates, it also drives the transverse rotating shafts 10 on both sides to rotate via the first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 11. When the pulley 13 rotates with the transverse rotating shaft 10, it also drives the second pulley 15 and the second transverse rotating shaft 12 to rotate via the synchronous belt 14. When the movable sleeve 17 rotates with the second transverse rotating shaft 12, it moves along the inner wall of fermentation tank 1. When the movable sleeve 18 rotates with the movable sleeve 17, the elastic support automatically retracts, facilitating the... The fermentation chamber 1 is automatically tapped. When the movable sleeve 17 and scraper 19 come into contact with the inner wall of the fermentation chamber 1, they automatically scrape off the edible fungi attached to the inner wall of the fermentation chamber 1. After the edible fungi inside the fermentation chamber 1 have finished fermenting, the controller 16 controls the drive motor 22 to drive the drive shaft 21 to rotate along the bottom frame 20. The fermentation chamber 1 and the feeding pipe 2 rotate synchronously. After the feeding pipe 2 is tilted to a certain angle, the directional stirring mechanism 100, the circulating swing mechanism 200 and the synchronous transmission mechanism 300 rotate synchronously. The edible fungi inside the fermentation chamber 1 are discharged obliquely downwards, thus completing the material removal work of the edible fungi. This application has the characteristics of uniform mixing, can automatically scrape off the edible fungi attached to the inner wall of the fermentation chamber 1, effectively prevent the edible fungi from accumulating on the inner wall of the fermentation chamber 1, can make the edible fungi inside the fermentation chamber 1 fully ferment, and can also adjust the position of the fermentation chamber 1 after fermentation to facilitate the rapid discharge of edible fungi.
