[0023] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.

[0024] The present application discloses a mixing device for cosmetic processing. Figure 1 and Figure 2 A mixing device for cosmetic processing includes a fermentation tank 1, a stirring assembly 5 and an infusion pipe for transporting fermentation liquid at a lower position in the fermentation tank 1 to a higher position. The fermentation tank 1 is configured as a rotating body, which is composed of a top plate 12 and a tank body 11. An infusion pump 3 for driving the transfer of liquid in the infusion pipe is installed above the top plate 12.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 In order to achieve the mixing and dispersion of the fermentation liquid in the fermentation tank 1 along the radial direction of the fermentation tank 1, the stirring assembly 5 includes a stirring shaft 51 rotatably arranged in the stirring tank, a blade 52 fixed on the stirring shaft 51, and a rotating driving member 53 for driving the stirring shaft 51 to rotate, and the non-driving end of the rotating driving member 53 is fixed on the stirring tank. Specifically, the rotating driving member 53 can be a rotary motor, a servo motor, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, in order to save costs, the rotating driving member 53 is set as a rotary motor, and the rotary motor is fixed above the top plate 12. The output end thereof penetrates the top plate 12 and is coaxially fixed to the stirring shaft 51, and the stirring shaft 51 is coaxially arranged with the tank body 11.

[0026] Further, in order to improve the uniformity of the radial dispersion of the fermentation liquid along the tank body 11, refer to Figure 2 There are three groups of blades 52, which are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the stirring shaft 51. Each group of blades 52 has two blades. The two blades 52 in each group are inclined in the opposite direction to the axial direction of the stirring shaft 51, and the two blades 52 in each group are symmetrically fixed on the peripheral wall of the stirring shaft 51.

[0027] On the basis of the stirring assembly 5, in order to transport the fermentation liquid at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 to the top of the fermentation tank 1, refer to Figure 2 The infusion pipe includes an inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 4. One end of the outlet pipe 4 passes through the top plate 12 and is connected to the infusion pump 3, and the other end is located at the top of the fermenter 1. The inlet pipe 2 is arranged below the outlet pipe 4 and is connected to the infusion pump 3. One end of the inlet pipe 2 passes through the top plate 12 and is connected to the infusion pump 3, and the end away from the infusion pump 3 is closed and has a plurality of inlet holes 6 on its peripheral wall. The plurality of inlet holes 6 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the inlet pipe 2. As for the diameter size of the inlet hole 6, the number of the inlet holes 6, and the interval size between the inlet holes 6, they can be adaptively designed according to the size of the fermenter 1 and the concentration of the fermented liquid.

[0028] In an embodiment of the present application, in order to further increase the coverage of the fermentation liquid in the peripheral wall area of ​​the fermentation tank 1 by the liquid inlet pipe 2, the liquid inlet pipe 2 is spirally extended along the circumference of the fermentation tank 1 and fixed on the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1, thereby improving the uniformity when extracting the fermentation liquid; in other embodiments, the liquid inlet pipe 2 is snake-shaped and cyclically rises in the height direction of the fermentation tank 1 and is fixed on the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The liquid inlet hole 6 can be set in any direction along the radial direction of the liquid inlet pipe 2 except the direction toward the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. In the embodiment of the present application, the liquid inlet hole 6 is preferably set toward the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. Furthermore, in order to avoid the fermentation liquid from flowing back into the feed pipe under the action of gravity as much as possible, which will cause difficulties in subsequent cleaning work, the liquid inlet hole 6 is set downward in the vertical direction.

[0030] After the fermentation liquid is extracted from the liquid inlet pipe 2, the fermentation liquid is transported to the liquid outlet pipe 4 under the drive of the liquid infusion pump 3. Figure 2 , the end of the liquid outlet pipe 4 away from the infusion pump 3 is set in a circular ring shape, and a plurality of liquid outlet holes 7 are spaced apart on the peripheral wall of the circular ring region. Specifically, the circular ring communication region of the liquid outlet pipe 4 is coaxial with the stirring shaft 51, and its inner diameter is smaller than the length of the blade 52, so that the fermentation liquid transported can be sprayed onto the blade 52, further improving the uniformity of mixing the components such as microorganisms and nutrients in the fermentation liquid. In other embodiments, the end of the liquid outlet pipe 4 away from the infusion pump 3 can also be set in a concentric ring shape that is interconnected.

[0031] Further, in order to improve the effect of the liquid outlet pipe 4 spraying the fermentation liquid onto the blade 52, refer to Figure 2 Preferably, the liquid outlet hole 7 is opened in the fermentation tank 1 in a direction away from the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. Specifically, the liquid outlet hole 7 is opened in the direction of the stirring shaft 51. In other embodiments, the liquid outlet hole 7 can be set in other directions except the direction toward the top plate 12. Preferably, the direction of the liquid outlet hole 7 is set to a direction that can spray the fermentation liquid in the liquid outlet pipe 4 onto the blade 52. In addition, the aperture size and number of the liquid outlet holes 7 can be adaptively adjusted according to the number and aperture of the liquid inlet holes 6 on the liquid inlet pipe 2, so that the liquid inlet amount and the liquid outlet amount are balanced.

[0032] The implementation principle of a mixing device for cosmetic processing in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: at the initial stage of cosmetic processing, a fermentation liquid containing microorganisms and nutrients is added to the fermentation tank 1, and the rotary motor is started. The output end of the rotary motor drives the stirring shaft 51 to rotate, thereby driving the blades 52 to rotate, so that the microorganisms and nutrients in the fermentation liquid are radially dispersed along the fermentation tank 1. At the same time, the infusion pump 3 is started, and the infusion pump 3 delivers the fermentation liquid located in the inner peripheral wall area of ​​the fermentation tank 1 extracted by the spirally arranged inlet hole 6 of the inlet pipe 2 to the outlet pipe 4, and the fermentation liquid is delivered to the top of the fermentation tank 1 through the outlet hole 7 of the outlet pipe 4, and sprayed to the central axis of the fermentation tank 1. Under the joint action of the blades 52, both the axial diffusion of the microorganisms and nutrients in the fermentation liquid and the radial diffusion of the microorganisms and nutrients in the fermentation liquid are realized, and the uniformity of mixing of the microorganisms and nutrients in the fermentation liquid is improved in many aspects.
