Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of probiotic production and processing, in particular to a probiotic fermentation tank feeding device. Background Art
[0002] Probiotics are a type of active microorganisms that are beneficial to the host by colonizing in the human body and changing the composition of the flora in a certain part of the host. They promote nutrient absorption and maintain intestinal health by regulating the host mucosal and systemic immune functions or by regulating the balance of intestinal flora, thereby producing single microorganisms or mixed microorganisms with clear composition that are beneficial to health. The beneficial bacteria or fungi in humans and animals mainly include yeast, probiotic spores, Clostridium butyricum, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Actinomycetes, etc. During the production and processing of probiotics, they need to be used in a fermentation tank and the materials need to be transported into the fermentation tank.
[0003] Common probiotic fermentation tank feeding devices are usually composed of structures such as a silo, a conveying pipe, and a control valve. When in use, the material is first put into the silo, and then the control valve is opened, and the material enters the conveying pipe, thereby conveying the material to the probiotic fermentation tank. This is a common probiotic fermentation tank feeding device structure and usage method. The traditional probiotic fermentation tank feeding device, because the material transported to the inside of the fermentation tank includes probiotic bacteria, culture medium, fermentation promoter, etc., and the various materials enter the fermentation tank without mixing, thereby reducing the fermentation time and efficiency. Some probiotic fermentation tank feeding devices, by adding a stirring structure (such as a stirring rod) inside the silo, mix and stir the various materials. However, in this way, since a variety of materials are put into the silo, some materials will accumulate at the bottom of the inner cavity of the silo. It is impossible to achieve the purpose of uniformly mixing a variety of materials by only stirring and mixing with a stirring rod. For this reason, a probiotic fermentation tank feeding device is proposed. Utility Model Content
