Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of yeast production technology, and in particular to equipment for producing yeast for brewing. Background Technology

[0002] To make traditional sweet wine koji using Polygonum hydropiper, first wash the Polygonum hydropiper thoroughly and then drain it. Mix the Polygonum hydropiper with purified water, then use a grinder to crush it until it becomes a fine pulp. Pour the Polygonum hydropiper pulp into glutinous rice flour and mix thoroughly until the rice flour and Polygonum hydropiper pulp form a clump. Finally, manually shape the rice flour into koji balls.

[0003] The processing of yeast starter raw materials requires manual labor, such as manually crushing the Polygonum hydropiper and mixing the Polygonum hydropiper pulp with glutinous rice flour. The process of processing yeast starter raw materials is lengthy and quite tedious.

[0004] Currently, there is a lack of equipment with multiple functions that can completely process yeast raw materials, thereby reducing the burden on workers and facilitating the rapid production of yeast. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a brewing equipment for making brewing yeast in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The equipment for making brewing yeast includes: a base, on which a fixed rod is fixedly connected, and a stirring tank is fixedly connected to the fixed rod. The stirring tank has a stirring groove, and a movable seat is provided on the base. The bottom of the stirring tank is sealed by the movable seat, and a motor is installed at the bottom of the movable seat. A stirring blade is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A crushing tank has a crushing groove, and a vertical rod is fixedly connected to it. A top plate is fixedly connected to the vertical rod, and a motor is installed on the top plate. A crushing blade extending into the crushing groove is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. A valve is installed at the bottom of the crushing tank. A ring plate has a rotating block rotatably connected to the vertical rod, and a ring plate is fixedly connected to the rotating block. The middle area of ​​the ring plate is a draining groove, and a filter screen is rotatably connected to the rotating block. The filter screen is fixed to the ring plate by a limiting member.

[0008] Preferably, a side block is fixedly connected to the movable seat, and a vertical hole is opened on the side block for sliding connection with a fixed rod. One end of the fixed rod is inserted into the vertical hole. An adjusting component for adjusting the height of the movable seat is provided on the base. The adjusting component includes a second motor mounted on the base. A drive gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. A driven gear that meshes with the drive gear is rotatably connected to the base. A screw is fixedly connected to the driven gear. The screw is threadedly connected to an internally threaded sleeve provided on a push rod. A through hole is also opened on the push rod. A bottom rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable seat. The bottom rod is slidably connected to the through hole, and one end of the bottom rod is inserted into the through hole.

[0009] Preferably, the device further includes: a sleeve block, the sleeve block being fixedly connected to the movable seat, the sleeve block having an opening, and the movable seat having a notch adapted to the opening, the notch being located outside the mixing tank.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting component includes a lever rotatably connected to the filter screen, a locking lever slidably connected to the lever, the locking lever being composed of a first cylinder and a second cylinder, the size of the first cylinder being smaller than the size of the second cylinder, and a second spring being sleeved on the first cylinder, the second spring being fixedly connected to the bottom of the second cylinder, the other end of the second spring being fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lever, and a slot adapted to the locking lever being provided on the ring plate; a sliding groove is provided on the vertical rod, a sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the vertical rod, a central hole is provided on the sliding sleeve that is slidably connected to the vertical rod, a protrusion that is slidably connected to the sliding groove is fixedly connected to the central hole, a first round rod and a second round rod are fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and a circular groove adapted to the first round rod and the second round rod is provided on the rotating block.

[0011] Preferably, a spring is fitted on the fixing rod. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protruding part of the outer wall of the mixing tank, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the side block. The elastic force of the spring pushes the moving seat to move downward.

[0012] Preferably, the base is provided with a placement groove, a material bucket is provided in the placement groove, a bent rod is rotatably connected to the base, the bent part of the bent rod abuts against the side wall of the material bucket, and an elastic rubber gasket protrudes from the part of the bent rod that abuts against the material bucket.

[0013] Preferably, the filter screen is made of a multi-layer composite material, and the surface of the filter screen is provided with an anti-corrosion layer.

[0014] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] 1. After pouring an appropriate amount of purified water into the crushing tank and starting the motor, the crushing blades will rotate and chop the Polygonum hydropiper in the crushing tank until it is cut into pulp. Open the valve, and the Polygonum hydropiper pulp in the crushing tank will flow into the mixing tank. Pour the glutinous rice flour into the mixing tank, and once the motor starts, the mixing blades will mix the glutinous rice flour and Polygonum hydropiper pulp evenly. This equipment can perform various processing of yeast raw materials. The powder clumps flowing out of the mixing tank can be manually rounded into yeast balls, which is quite convenient. The staff does not need to use multiple tools to process the yeast raw materials differently.

[0016] 2. When the rotating block is rotated until the groove aligns with one of the first round rods, the sliding sleeve moves downward under the elastic force of the spring three, and the first round rod extends into the groove at this position. At this time, the ring plate is away from the crushing barrel. When the rotating block is rotated until the groove aligns with the other first round rod, the ring plate is directly above the crushing barrel. The filter screen rotates and opens, and the Polygonum hydropiper on the filter screen falls into the crushing barrel. The position of the filter screen can be adjusted as needed, so when the Polygonum hydropiper is poured onto the filter screen to drain, the water on the Polygonum hydropiper will not drip into the crushing barrel.

[0017] 3. When the motor is started, the driving gear rotates, and the driven gear rotates along with it. The screw on the driven gear rotates as well, causing the push rod to move downwards in the vertical direction. Under the elastic force of the spring, the moving seat moves downwards until the opening is no longer blocked by the mixing tank. At this time, the yeast raw material on the moving seat falls into the material tank through the opening and notch. The discharge process is relatively simple, and then the staff can remove the material tank. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides a technical solution:

[0028] Equipment for making brewing yeast includes:

[0029] A base 1 is provided, a fixed rod 5 is fixedly connected to the base 1, a mixing tank 6 is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 5, a mixing trough 7 is provided on the mixing tank 6, a movable seat 9 is provided on the base 1, a motor 15 is installed at the bottom of the movable seat 9, and a stirring blade 16 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 15.

[0030] A crushing barrel 26 is formed. A connecting rod 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mixing barrel 6. The crushing barrel 26 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 25. A crushing groove 27 is opened on the crushing barrel 26. A vertical rod 28 is fixedly connected to the crushing barrel 26. A top plate 30 is fixedly connected to the vertical rod 28. A motor 31 is installed on the top plate 30. A crushing blade 32 that extends into the crushing groove 27 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 31. A valve 47 is installed at the bottom of the crushing barrel 26.

[0031] A rotating block 33 is rotatably connected to the ring plate 34 and the vertical rod 28. The ring plate 34 is fixedly connected to the rotating block 33. The middle area of ​​the ring plate 34 is a draining groove 35. A filter screen 37 is rotatably connected to the rotating block 33. The filter screen 37 is fixed to the ring plate 34 by a limiting member.

[0032] The bottom of the mixing tank 6 is sealed by the movable seat 9, and a side block 10 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 9. The side block 10 has a vertical hole 11 that is slidably connected to the fixed rod 5.

[0033] The base 1 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the movable seat 9;

[0034] The adjusting component includes a second motor 21 mounted on the base 1. The output end of the second motor 21 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 22. A driven gear 23 that meshes with the drive gear 22 is rotatably connected to the base 1. A screw 24 is fixedly connected to the driven gear 23. The screw 24 is threadedly connected to an internally threaded sleeve 19 on the push rod 18. A through hole 20 is also provided on the push rod 18. A bottom rod 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the moving seat 9. The bottom rod 17 is slidably connected to the through hole 20.

[0035] The equipment also includes:

[0036] The sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 9. The sleeve 12 has an opening 13. The movable seat 9 has a notch 14 that matches the opening 13. When the upper surface of the movable seat 9 abuts against the bottom of the mixing tank 6, the sleeve 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 7, and the notch 14 is located outside the outer wall of the mixing tank 6 at this time.

[0037] The limiting component includes a lever 38 rotatably connected to the filter screen 37, a locking lever 39 slidably connected to the lever 38, the locking lever 39 being composed of a first cylinder and a second cylinder, the size of the first cylinder being smaller than the size of the second cylinder, and a second spring 40 being sleeved on the first cylinder, the second spring 40 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the second cylinder, the other end of the second spring 40 being fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lever 38, and a slot 36 adapted to the locking lever 39 being provided on the ring plate 34;

[0038] A groove 29 is provided on the vertical rod 28, and a sliding sleeve 42 is slidably connected to the vertical rod 28. A central hole 43 is provided on the sliding sleeve 42 and is slidably connected to the vertical rod 28. A protrusion 44 is fixedly connected to the central hole 43 and is slidably connected to the groove 29. A first round rod 46 and a second round rod 48 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 42. A round groove 41 that matches the first round rod 46 and the second round rod 48 is provided on the rotating block 33.

[0039] A spring 45 is fitted on the vertical rod 28. When the rotating block 33 rotates to align the circular groove 41 with the first circular rod 46, the sliding sleeve 42 moves downward under the elastic force of the spring 45, and the first circular rod 46 extends into the circular groove 41 at this position. At this time, the ring plate 34 is away from the crushing barrel 26. When the rotating block 33 rotates to align the circular groove 41 with the second circular rod 48, the ring plate 34 is located directly above the crushing barrel 26. The filter screen 37 rotates and opens, and the Polygonum hydropiper on the filter screen 37 falls into the crushing barrel 26.

[0040] A spring 8 is fitted on the fixed rod 5. One end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protruding part of the outer wall of the mixing tank 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the side block 10. The elastic force of the spring 8 pushes the moving seat 9 to move downward.

[0041] The base 1 has a placement groove 2, and a material bucket 3 is placed in the placement groove 2. A bent rod 4 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The bent part of the bent rod 4 abuts against the side wall of the material bucket 3, and an elastic rubber pad protrudes from the part of the bent rod 4 that abuts against the material bucket 3.

[0042] The filter screen 37 is made of multi-layer composite material, and the surface of the filter screen 37 is provided with an anti-corrosion layer.

[0043] The upper surface of the movable seat 9 is in contact with the lower surface of the mixing tank 6. At this time, the notch 14 is located on the outside of the mixing tank 6, and the opening 13 is blocked by the mixing tank 6, that is, the object in the mixing tank 6 cannot flow out through the opening 13 and the notch 14.

[0044] With the action of the sleeve block 12, as the bottom of the moving seat 9 gradually moves away from the mixing tank 6, the yeast starter material in the mixing tank 6 can only flow out from the opening 13, effectively preventing the yeast starter material from leaking from the moving seat 9. The notch 14 is inclined, so after the yeast starter material flows out from the opening 13, it flows along the notch 14 into the material bucket 3 on the base 1 below. Then, the staff can manually knead the yeast starter material in the material bucket 3 into a ball shape and wait for the new yeast to ferment.

[0045] After washing the smartweed, place it on the filter screen 37. The water on the smartweed can pass through the filter screen 37 until the smartweed is drained. The filter screen 37 can move away from the crushing barrel 26 as the ring plate 34 rotates, so the water on the smartweed will not drip into the crushing barrel 26.

[0046] A spring 45 is fitted on the vertical rod 28. When the rotating block 33 rotates to align the circular groove 41 with the first circular rod 46, the sliding sleeve 42 moves downward under the elastic force of the spring 45, and the first circular rod 46 extends into the circular groove 41 at this position. At this time, the ring plate 34 is away from the crushing barrel 26. When the rotating block 33 rotates to align the circular groove 41 with the second circular rod 48, the ring plate 34 is located directly above the crushing barrel 26. The filter screen 37 rotates and opens, and the Polygonum hydropiper on the filter screen 37 falls into the crushing barrel 26.

[0047] In summary, the process of making yeast provided in this embodiment requires processing the yeast raw materials:

[0048] Place the washed Polygonum hydropiper pulp onto the filter screen 37 and let it drain. Push the sliding sleeve 42 upwards until the circular groove 41 disengages from the first circular rod 46. Then rotate the rotating block 33 until the circular groove 41 aligns with the second circular rod 48. Release the force on the sliding sleeve 42. Under the action of the spring 35, the sliding sleeve 42 moves downwards, and the first circular rod 46 extends into the circular groove 41. At this point, the filter screen 37 is above the crushing barrel 26. Pull the locking rod 39 upwards, causing the end of the locking rod 39 to move upwards and disengage from the locking groove 36. Rotate the lever 38, and the filter screen 37 rotates, causing the Polygonum hydropiper on the filter screen 37 to fall into the crushing groove 27 inside the crushing barrel 26.

[0049] Pour an appropriate amount of purified water into the crushing trough 27, start the motor 31, and the crushing blade 32 will rotate to chop the Polygonum hydropiper in the crushing trough 27 until the Polygonum hydropiper is cut into grass pulp.

[0050] Open valve 47, and the Polygonum hydropiper pulp in crushing bucket 26 flows into mixing bucket 6. Pour glutinous rice flour into mixing bucket 6. Start motor 15, and stirring blade 16 mixes the glutinous rice flour and Polygonum hydropiper pulp evenly. Place material bucket 3 into the placement groove 2 on base 1, and rotate bent rod 4. The bent rod 4 abuts against the outer wall of material bucket 3, thus fixing material bucket 3 in the placement groove 2.

[0051] When motor 15 starts, the drive gear 22 rotates, causing the driven gear 23 to rotate as well. The screw 24 fixedly connected to the driven gear 23 rotates as well, causing the push rod 18 to move downward in the vertical direction. Under the elastic force of spring 8, the moving seat 9 moves downward until the opening 13 is removed from the obstruction of the mixing tank 6. At this time, the yeast raw material on the moving seat 9 falls into the material tank 3 through the opening 13 and the notch 14.

[0052] The above description of the embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
