Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermentation tanks, in particular to a fermentation tank capable of adjusting and controlling temperature. Background Art
[0002] Fermentation tanks are common equipment used for fermentation. There are many types of fermentation tanks on the market. Some fermentation tanks also have a stirring function. They can use a motor to drive the stirring rod and stirring blades to rotate to achieve stirring operations, thereby promoting a more uniform mixing of the internal raw materials and achieving a more thorough fermentation effect. In addition, some fermentation tanks also have heating and temperature control functions. This type of fermentation tank can use a heater for heating operations and perform temperature control operations.
[0003] However, when this type of fermentation tank with temperature control function is in use, since there is a stirring component inside the tank body, heating and temperature detection can only be performed from the outside of the tank body. After it is heated by the heater, if the temperature exceeds the set value, the temperature control effect is generally achieved by stopping heating. However, in this process, since the temperature has been heated to a value exceeding the standard value, after stopping heating, although the temperature can be prevented from continuing to rise, the subsequent temperature reduction to the standard value is achieved by slowly dissipating the heat. The slow heat dissipation time is long, and there is a problem that the temperature cannot be quickly and timely reduced through the cooling component, which will affect the temperature control effect and bring inconvenience to the user. In view of this, we propose a fermentation tank with temperature adjustment control. Utility Model Content
