[0002] Bread is a food made from ingredients such as flour, water, salt and yeast or leavening agents, usually made by baking. It is one of the staple foods in many cultures around the world and an important part of the human diet. The dough needs to be fermented before making bread. Bread fermentation is a crucial step in the bread-making process. It refers to the gas fermentation produced by the yeast or leavening agent in the dough under certain temperature and humidity conditions.

[0042] Working principle: When the fermentation machine is in use, the dough is placed on the upper side of the turning shovel 4, and the electric telescopic rod 201 is controlled to extend so that the hammer head 206 extends into the fermentation basin 3. The No. 2 motor 208 is started and the No. 2 motor 208 drives the rotating drum 202 to rotate. Since the lower side of the rotating drum 202 is arranged in an inclined shape, the higher side pushes the hammer rod 204 through the rotation of the rotating drum 202. When it rotates to the lower end, the reset spring 205 drives the hammer rod 204 to move upward, so that the two hammer heads 206 can beat the dough alternately. By kneading the dough, the electric telescopic rod 201 can be shortened after beating for a period of time, so that the No. 1 motor 7 is started to rotate the turning shovel 4. When the turning shovel 4 rotates to the upper side, the dough will fall into the fermentation basin 3. When the turning shovel 4 turns back to the fermentation basin 3, the dough can be shoveled onto the turning shovel 4 due to the flatter settings on both sides, thereby turning over, which can make the dough ferment more evenly.
