[0051] Conductive iron plates smaller than the diameter of the circulation channel cavity are arranged at fixed intervals in the circulation channel cavity, the thickness of the iron plates is one quarter of the height of the circulation channel cavity, and iron-nickel alloy fibers are arranged between the circulation channel cavities;

[0059] An insulation layer is arranged outside the conical tank, and the insulation material of the insulation layer includes polyurethane foam, self-extinguishing polystyrene plastic, polyurethane, expanded perlite powder or slag wool;

[0060] The insulation layer of the conical tank is also covered with a thin metal plate for decoration and protection, generally made of 0.5-0.7mm stainless steel plate, 0.7-1.5mm aluminum alloy galvanized plate or tinplate plate;

[0061] At the same time, the conical tank is a sealed tank, so the carbon dioxide can be recycled by connecting it to the conical tank through a connecting pipe. This can reduce environmental pollution; the recycled carbon dioxide can be used for pressure preparation, carbonation treatment, replenishing carbon dioxide in beer, and carbon dioxide washing.

[0062] Three temperature measuring probes are installed at the upper, middle and lower parts of the conical tank respectively to continuously output the fermentation liquid temperature measurement values ​​at different parts. The conical tank is controlled by a computer in the central control room.

[0063] Since the conical tank is closed, the fermentation operator cannot directly contact and observe the materials in the tank, so the materials in the tank must be checked and controlled with the help of measuring devices. These devices include: temperature measuring instrument, liquid level measuring instrument, pressure measuring instrument, low and high position probes, sampling device. The utility model observes and controls through the computer in the central control room.

[0064] (1) Temperature measuring instrument During the fermentation, heat preservation and cooling process, the temperature needs to be accurately measured and controlled. Since the fermentation liquid will have strong convection in the tank during fermentation, resulting in temperature difference, it is necessary to install three temperature measuring probes at the upper, middle and lower parts of the conical tank respectively to continuously output the temperature measurement values ​​of the fermentation liquid at different parts. The temperature measurement point cannot be set on the cooling device, otherwise the displayed temperature will be lower than the actual temperature, resulting in inaccurate temperature control. In addition, in order to accurately control the cooling speed, three temperature measuring probes need to be installed at the refrigerant inlet.

[0065] (2) During the fermentation and storage of wine, the pressure measuring instrument must monitor the pressure changes in the tank. If the predetermined pressure is not reached or the pressure rises too slowly, it must be taken seriously.

[0066] (3) Liquid level indicator Modern liquid level measuring device can not only display the liquid level height, but also immediately display the volume of the fermentation liquid. At least two liquid level probes (pressure probes) are installed inside the conical tank, namely, a full tank probe and an empty tank probe.

[0067] (4) Minimum liquid level probe and maximum liquid level probe It is best to install low-level and high-level probes on the conical tank to ensure that the maximum liquid level is not exceeded during feeding and to avoid empty tanks during discharging.

[0068] (5) Sampling device To check the quality of the fermentation liquid, it is necessary to sample and analyze the fermentation liquid through a sampling device. The sampling device is located at the bottom of the column. In order to prevent the sampling tube from being blocked by yeast and coagulants, it should be extended about 30 cm into the tank.

[0069] Among them, the cooling method of the conical tank is different according to the capacity of the tank. Each conical tank itself should be equipped with 3-4 sections of cooling devices for temperature control. The cooling device of the conical tank is welded on its outer wall, and there are cooling jackets, semicircular tubes, arc tubes or Miller plate jackets.

[0070] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
