Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermentation, in particular to a room for fermenting light fermented black beans. Background Art
[0002] Light fermented black beans are fermented from the dried mature seeds (black beans) of Glycine max (L.) Merr., a plant in the legume family. According to the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China, its preparation method is as follows: 70-100g each of mulberry leaves and Artemisia annua are decocted with water, filtered, and the decoction is mixed with 1000g of clean soybeans. Once the decoction is completely absorbed, it is steamed thoroughly. Remove the decoction, let it air dry briefly, and then place it in a container and allow it to ferment until a yellow coating forms. Remove the decoction, remove the residue, rinse, and place it in a container and allow it to ferment for another 15-20 days, until fully fermented and fragrant. Remove the decoction and briefly steam it.
[0003] The fermentation time for light black bean curd is relatively long. During the fermentation process, the black beans in the fermentation vat need to be stirred regularly. This serves the following purposes: 1. Maintaining uniform mixing: Stirring ensures that the fermented material is thoroughly mixed, ensuring that every part receives sufficient oxygen and nutrients. This helps promote the uniform distribution and growth of microorganisms throughout the fermented material. 2. Promoting oxygen delivery: Stirring helps oxygen be transported more quickly into the fermented material, providing more oxygen for the microorganisms. This is crucial for the growth and metabolic activity of aerobic microorganisms. 3. Improving fermentation efficiency: Proper stirring makes the microorganisms in the fermented material more active, thereby increasing fermentation efficiency and yield. By increasing the contact area between the microorganisms and the fermentation substrate, stirring promotes the biochemical reactions. 4. Preventing poor fermentation: Even stirring prevents stress on the microorganisms in the fermented material, preventing the production of undesirable fermentation products. This helps maintain the quality and flavor of the black bean curd. 5. Accelerating fermentation: Appropriate stirring helps the microorganisms in the fermented material grow and reproduce more rapidly, thereby accelerating the fermentation process. This shortens the fermentation cycle and improves production efficiency.
[0004] The existing fermentation room does not have the function of stirring the raw materials in the fermentation barrel, and manual labor is required to enter the fermentation room regularly to operate. This operation method has certain problems. On the one hand, the environment in the fermentation room is humid and hot, which is not conducive to the staff to perform stirring operations inside. On the other hand, since the fermentation time of light black beans is long, manual stirring operations are required many times, resulting in frequent opening and closing of the fermentation room door, which to a certain extent destroys the temperature and humidity in the fermentation room, which is not conducive to the fermentation of light black beans. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a room for fermenting light fermented black beans, which solves the problem that the existing fermentation room cannot automatically stir the raw materials in the fermentation barrel, resulting in high manual operation intensity and being unfavorable for the fermentation of light fermented black beans. In order to achieve the above purpose, the following solutions are adopted:
[0006] A room for fermenting light fermented black beans comprises: a room, a partition, a dehumidifier, a humidifier, a temperature regulating device, a movable mechanism, a lifting and stirring mechanism, a temperature and humidity sensor, a chiller, a circulation pipeline and a controller, wherein a horizontal partition is fixedly installed below the ceiling of the room, the left and right sides of the partition do not contact the room walls, the dehumidifier, the humidifier and the temperature regulating device are installed on the top of the partition in sequence from left to right, the movable mechanism is fixedly installed at the bottom of the partition, the lifting and stirring mechanism is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable mechanism, the stirring mechanism is fixedly installed below the lifting and stirring mechanism, the temperature and humidity sensor is fixedly installed on the wall of the room, the chiller is installed outside the room and is connected to the temperature regulating device through a circulation pipeline, the temperature and humidity sensor is electrically connected to the controller, and the output end of the controller is electrically connected to the dehumidifier, humidifier, temperature regulating device, movable mechanism, lifting and stirring mechanism, stirring mechanism and chiller.
[0007] Furthermore, a plurality of marking lines for placing fermentation barrels are drawn on the floor of the room.
[0008] Furthermore, the dehumidifier is provided with a drainage pipe connected to the outside of the room.
[0009] Furthermore, the humidifier is provided with a water inlet pipe connected to the outside of the room.
[0010] Furthermore, the temperature regulating device consists of a shell, a fan and a heat exchanger. The shell is hollow inside and has several ventilation holes on the surface. The fan and heat exchanger are fixedly installed inside. The chiller is connected to the heat exchanger through a circulation pipeline, and the controller output end is electrically connected to the fan.
[0011] Furthermore, the moving mechanism is composed of electric slide No. 1, electric slide No. 2 and electric slide No. 3. Electric slide No. 1 and electric slide No. 2 are respectively fixedly mounted on the front and rear sides of the bottom of the partition. Electric slide No. 3 is located below electric slide No. 1 and electric slide No. 2, and its two ends are respectively fixedly mounted on the sliders of electric slide No. 1 and electric slide No. 2. The output end of the controller is electrically connected to electric slide No. 1, electric slide No. 2 and electric slide No. 3.
[0012] Furthermore, the lifting and stirring mechanism is composed of an upper mounting plate, a lower mounting plate, an electric push rod, a motor and a stirring paddle. The upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate are distributed up and down and are connected into a whole by the electric push rod. The motor is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the lower mounting plate, and the rotating shaft passes through the lower mounting plate, and the stirring paddle is fixedly mounted at its end. The output end of the controller is electrically connected to the electric push rod and the motor.
[0013] Furthermore, the controller is integrated with control buttons and a display screen.
[0014] Directions:
[0015] First, the staff transports the fermentation barrels containing black beans and other raw materials into the room and places them in turn within the marked lines on the floor of the room. After the placement is completed, the staff closes the door and inputs the temperature, humidity, fermentation time and other parameters of the black bean fermentation through the controller. After these parameters are input into the controller, they are processed by the program counter, instruction register, instruction decoder, timing generator and operation controller inside the controller, and the output signal controls the operation of the corresponding equipment.
[0016] The controller obtains the indoor temperature and humidity conditions through the temperature and humidity sensor, controls the chiller to heat or cool the coolant in the circulation pipeline, and the coolant circulates in the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger exchanges heat with the air in the fermentation room and drives the air flow through the fan until the controller obtains the indoor temperature from the temperature and humidity sensor and it is consistent with the preset parameters. At this time, the controller controls the chiller to continue to operate according to the current state to achieve constant temperature in the fermentation room, and controls the humidifier or dehumidifier to achieve constant humidity in the fermentation room.
[0017] During the black bean fermentation process, the controller regularly controls the movement mechanism to drive the lifting and stirring mechanism to move above each fermentation barrel and remain stationary above each fermentation barrel for a certain period of time. When the movement mechanism is stationary, the controller controls the electric push rod to extend, so that the stirring paddle extends into the fermentation barrel to stir the fermentation raw materials. After the stirring is completed, the lifting and stirring mechanism resets and stops, and the fermentation raw materials remaining on the stirring paddle drip back into the fermentation barrel. After a certain period of time, the movement mechanism continues to work and moves the lifting and stirring mechanism to the top of the next fermentation barrel to continue the stirring operation.
[0018] Advantages of the present invention
[0019] (1) The present invention can replace manual stirring during the black bean fermentation process by cooperating with the moving mechanism and the lifting and stirring mechanism, thereby reducing the workload for the staff. On the other hand, since there is no need for manual labor to frequently enter the fermentation room for stirring, the environment in the fermentation room is always in a stable state, and there is no temperature and humidity change caused by opening and closing the door of the fermentation room, which can improve the quality of the finished black bean curd.
