[0023] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Example
[0024] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 2 The utility model discloses a fermentation tank for rice wine production, comprising a tank body 1 and a feed hopper fixedly penetrated through the top of the tank body 1, a discharge pipe fixedly penetrated through the lower half of the tank body 1, the discharge pipe is opened and closed by a valve, in an initial state, the discharge pipe is in a closed state, and the inner bottom wall of the tank body 1 is gradually inclined downward from the outer periphery to the position close to the discharge pipe, so that the raw materials in the tank body 1 can be fully discharged from the tank body 1 through the discharge pipe.
[0025] A plurality of electric push rods 2 are fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the tank body 1, and a partition 3 is fixedly connected to the output ends of the plurality of electric push rods 2. The outer peripheral surface of the partition 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank body 1, and the partition 3 is made of heat insulating material.
[0026] Several heating tubes 4 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition 3, and the heating tubes 4 heat the area below the partition 3 to keep the rice wine raw materials at a suitable fermentation temperature. A hose 5 is connected to the bottom of the feed hopper, and the hose 5 is fixed through the partition 3 and extends to the bottom of the partition 3. The raw materials poured into the feed hopper enter the bottom of the partition 3 through the hose 5, and the hose 5 can be bent and deformed, and will not hinder the vertical movement of the partition 3.
[0027] After the raw materials enter the tank body 1, the electric push rod 2 is started to drive the partition 3 to move vertically, so that the bottom surface of the partition 3 is close to the upper surface of the rice wine raw materials, so that the size of the area below the partition 3 is most suitable for the amount of rice wine raw materials. The heating tube 4 only needs to heat the area below the partition 3 to ensure the normal fermentation of the rice wine, saving energy.
[0028] A stirring part 6 is provided in the tank body 1. The stirring part 6 includes a support frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the shell, and a motor 61 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame. A driving rod 62 is drivingly connected to the output end of the motor 61, and the driving rod 62 is rotatably connected to the tank body 1, and the driving rod 62 passes through the partition 3, and the driving rod 62 can rotate relative to the partition 3, and the partition 3 can also move vertically relative to the driving rod 62.
[0029] A fixed block 63 is fixedly sleeved on the lower half of the outer circumference of the driving rod 62, and a plurality of sliding blocks 64 are slidably sleeved on the outer circumference of the driving rod 62 above the fixed block 63, and the uppermost sliding block 64 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the partition 3. A plurality of stirring rods 65 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the plurality of sliding blocks 64 and the fixed block 63.
[0030] When the partition plate 3 moves downward, it pushes the corresponding sliding block 64 to move downward, so that the stirring rod 65 will not hinder the movement of the partition plate 3.
[0031] Springs 7 are fixedly connected between two adjacent sliding blocks 64 or between the fixed block 63 and the corresponding sliding block 64, and the driving rod 62 passes through a plurality of springs 7. When the corresponding sliding block 64 moves downward, the corresponding spring 7 pushes the sliding block 64 below to move, and since the springs 7 are exactly the same, the elastic deformations of the springs 7 are ultimately the same, so that the stirring rods 65 are evenly arranged in the vertical direction.
[0032] The outer surface of the fixed block 63 and the outer surfaces of the plurality of sliding blocks 64 are both hinged with a plurality of connecting rods 8, and the corresponding two connecting rods 8 are hinged as shown in FIG. Figure 2 When the fixed block 63 rotates, the connecting rod 8 can stably drive the corresponding sliding block 64 to rotate, thereby preventing the fixed block 63 and the sliding block 64 from rotating relative to each other, which would cause the spring 7 to be damaged due to excessive distortion.
[0033] The outer wall of the fixed block 63 is fixedly connected to a plurality of extension rods 9, and one end of the extension rod 9 away from the fixed block 63 is fixedly connected to a scraper 10, and the scraper 10 is fitted with the inner wall of the tank body 1 as shown in FIG. Figure 2 When the rice wine in the tank body 1 is completely discharged from the tank body 1, the electric push rod 2 is started to drive the partition 3 to move downward until it fits with the top of the scraper 10. During this process, the partition 3 pushes the raw materials attached to the inner wall of the tank body 1 downward, and cooperates with the rotation of the scraper 10 below to scrape the raw materials off, so that when the tank body 1 is subsequently cleaned by water injection, the raw materials in the tank body 1 can be easily flushed out of the tank body 1.
[0034] The implementation principle of the above embodiment is:
[0035] First, the rice wine raw material is injected into the tank body 1 through the feed hopper and the hose 5. Then the electric push rod 2 is started to drive the partition 3 to move vertically, so that the bottom surface of the partition 3 is close to the upper surface of the rice wine raw material. When the partition 3 moves downward, the corresponding sliding block 64 is driven to move downward. This sliding block 64 pushes the sliding block 64 below to move through the corresponding spring 7. Since each spring 7 is exactly the same, the elastic deformation of each spring 7 is the same in the end, so that the arrangement of the stirring rod 65 in the vertical direction is uniform. The heating tube 4 works to heat the area below the partition 3 to ensure the normal fermentation of the rice wine.
[0036] When stirring is needed, the motor 61 is started, and the motor 61 drives the driving rod 62 to rotate. The driving rod 62 drives the fixed block 63 to rotate. The fixed block 63 drives several sliding blocks 64 to rotate through the connecting rod 8, thereby causing several stirring rods 65 to rotate to stir the rice wine.
[0037] After the fermentation of rice wine is completed, the discharge pipe is opened to discharge the rice wine from the tank body 1, and then the push rod of the motor 61 works to drive the partition 3 to move downward until the partition 3 fits with the top of the scraper 10. During this process, the partition 3 pushes the raw materials attached to the inner wall of the tank body 1 downward, and the motor 61 works to drive the scraper 10 to rotate, so that the raw materials on the inner wall of the tank body 1 are scraped off, thereby separating the raw materials from the inner wall of the tank body 1, which facilitates the cleaning of the raw materials in the tank body 1.
[0038] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
