Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of wine-making equipment, in particular to an automatic yellow water pumping device for a cellar. Background Art

[0002] Today, the liquor industry is developing very rapidly in all aspects, and the degree of automated production is changing with each passing day. Traditional production operations can no longer meet market demand, especially with the increasing requirements for production safety and food safety. The new liquor production model that combines high-tech and traditional technologies has become a general trend. In recent years, liquor production has gradually developed in the direction of mechanization, intelligence, and informatization, and the degree of automation in brewing production has been greatly improved.

[0003] Yellow water is produced by microorganisms using starch to generate alcohol and other flavor components during the fermentation process of the mash in the cellar. At the same time, a large amount of free water is produced. As the fermentation progresses, the free water gradually settles at the bottom of the cellar, forming a brown, fluid liquid. It is usually necessary to pump out the yellow water before opening the cellar to remove the mash. It is necessary to make the mash drip fully into the cellar to avoid high water content and high acidity of the mash out of the cellar, which will affect the extraction of alcohol and flavor components and normal batching.

[0004] In the past, in traditional liquor production, pumping out yellow water required digging a pit for the mash, dripping it into the cellar, and then scooping out the yellow water, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the effect of dripping the mash in the lower layer of the cellar was difficult to meet the requirements. At present, most wineries install yellow water tanks at the bottom of the cellar to allow the yellow water to flow into the tank, and then use yellow water pumps to pump out the yellow water in the tank. This method has improved the quality of dripping and work efficiency to a certain extent, but it still requires manual pumping of yellow water every two hours, and the effect of dripping and work efficiency still needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the existing yellow water pumping process of pits, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an automatic yellow water pumping device for pits which can improve the yellow water pumping efficiency.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is:

[0007] An automatic yellow water pumping device for a cellar comprises a yellow water pipe extending into a yellow water tank at the bottom of the cellar, and a yellow water pump connected to the yellow water pipe, and also comprises a liquid level meter, wherein the liquid level meter is vertically arranged in the yellow water tank, the lower end of the liquid level meter contacts the bottom of the yellow water tank, and the upper end of the liquid level meter exceeds the yellow water tank, a flow meter is arranged at the water inlet end of the yellow water pump, and the liquid level meter and the flow meter are both electrically connected to a controller of the yellow water pump, and the controller of the yellow water pump is configured to control the start and stop of the yellow water pump according to an electrical signal sent by the liquid level meter, and to forcibly shut down the yellow water pump according to a signal fed back by the flow meter.

[0008] Furthermore, the yellow water pipe is buried in the cellar wall, and a pipeline interface is provided at the upper end of the yellow water pipe after passing through the cellar sill, and the water inlet end of the yellow water pump is connected to the pipeline interface through an extension pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, the liquid level meter is a float level meter, and the upper end of the liquid level meter is connected to the controller of the yellow water pump through a liquid level meter cable.

[0010] Furthermore, the liquid level meter cable extends upward to the cellar sill and is connected to a liquid level meter cable interface installed on the cellar sill. The liquid level meter cable interface is connected to a controller of the yellow water pump via an extension cable.

[0017] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0018] It should be noted that if there are directional indication terms in the present invention, such as up, down, left, right, front, and back directions and orientation terms, they are for the purpose of facilitating the description of the relative position relationship between components, and are not for the absolute position of the related components or the position relationship between components. They are only used to explain the relative position relationship and movement of the components in a certain posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. If there are terms related to quantity in the present invention, such as "multiple", "multiple", "several", etc., they specifically refer to two or more.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the automatic yellow water pumping device for a cellar of the utility model comprises a yellow water pipe 2 extending into a yellow water tank 1 at the bottom of the cellar, and a yellow water pump 3 connected to the yellow water pipe 2, and also comprises a liquid level meter 4, the liquid level meter 4 is arranged in the yellow water tank 1 along the vertical direction, the lower end of the liquid level meter 4 contacts the bottom of the yellow water tank 1, and the upper end of the liquid level meter 4 exceeds the yellow water tank 1, and a flow meter 5 is arranged at the water inlet end of the yellow water pump 3, and the liquid level meter 4 and the flow meter 5 are both electrically connected to the controller of the yellow water pump 3, and the controller of the yellow water pump 3 is configured to control the start and stop of the yellow water pump 3 according to the electric signal sent by the liquid level meter 4, and at the same time force the yellow water pump 3 to be shut down according to the signal fed back by the flow meter 5. The yellow water tank 1 is a rectangular box installed at the bottom of the cellar, and the upper top surface is a sieve hole structure, and the upper top surface is at the same level as the bottom of the cellar. The yellow water generated during the fermentation of the fermented grains will be collected in the yellow water tank 1, and the sieve holes are used to intercept the fermented grains. Under normal working conditions, the yellow water pump 3 starts and stops according to the set liquid level height to realize automatic extraction of yellow water. When the liquid level meter 4 fails, or too much mash enters the yellow water tank 1, causing a detection error in the liquid level meter 4, no yellow water flows through the flow meter 5 when the yellow water pump 3 is working, the controller can forcibly shut down the yellow water pump 3 according to the set time, for example, when the yellow water flow is 0 and maintained for 3 minutes, to prevent the yellow water pump 3 from being damaged by long-term idling.

[0020] Since the yellow water pipe 2 is an infrastructure and a factory building usually has multiple cellars, for the convenience of management and maintenance, the yellow water pipe 2 can be buried in the cellar wall when the cellar is built, and a pipe interface 21 is set after the upper end of the yellow water pipe 2 passes through the cellar sill, and the water inlet end of the yellow water pump 3 is connected to the pipe interface 21 through an extension pipe. In the actual production process, the extension pipe can be configured according to the use of the cellar, and one yellow water pump 3 can correspond to one cellar, or one yellow water pump 3 can correspond to multiple cellars, which increases the flexibility of pumping yellow water in the factory building.

[0021] For the liquid level meter 4, the present invention preferably uses a float level meter, which is a liquid level meter 4 with a float 41 that can slide up and down on the liquid level meter 4 as the liquid level rises and falls. Its working principle is as follows: Figure 2As shown, when the float 41 rises to position A with the yellow water level, the liquid level meter 4 transmits a signal to the controller of the yellow water pump 3, and the yellow water pump 3 is started to extract the yellow water; when the float 41 drops to position B with the yellow water level, the yellow water pump 3 stops working. If a large amount of mash is deposited at the bottom of the yellow water tank 1, after the yellow water is completely pumped out, the float 41 is located on the mash and cannot reach position B, and the yellow water pump cannot be controlled to stop working. At this time, the yellow water pump 3 can be forced to shut down through the signal fed back by the flow meter 5, which plays a safety role.

[0022] In order to ensure stable signal transmission, the upper end of the liquid level meter 4 is connected to the controller of the yellow water pump 3 through a liquid level meter cable 42. Similarly, in order to facilitate management and control, the liquid level meter cable 42 extends upward to the cellar sill and is connected to a liquid level meter cable interface 43 installed on the cellar sill, and the liquid level meter cable interface 43 is connected to the controller of the yellow water pump 3 through an extension cable.

[0023] In order to prevent workers from stepping on the pipe interface 21 and the liquid level gauge cable interface 43 during work, a stainless steel box can be set on the cellar sill. The pipe interface 21 and the liquid level gauge cable interface 43 are both located in the stainless steel box. A box door is provided on the top of the stainless steel box. The box door is closed when the cellar is not in use. When in use, the yellow water pump 3 is connected with an extension pipe and an extension cable.

[0024] In order to facilitate the unified treatment of yellow water, a yellow water tank 6 can be set up next to the cellar, and the yellow water pump 3 sends the yellow water into the yellow water tank 6 for temporary storage before sewage treatment.

[0025] The utility model adds a liquid level meter 4 in the yellow water tank 1 and a flow meter 5 at the water inlet of the yellow water pump 3. The liquid level meter 4 transmits the yellow water liquid level information to the yellow water pump 3. The yellow water pump 3 automatically operates to extract yellow water or stops working according to the yellow water liquid level. When the liquid level meter 4 fails, the flow meter can force the yellow water pump 3 to shut down according to the water flow rate. There is no need for workers to frequently check and operate. The whole equipment has a high degree of automation and safe and secure operation. It can save manpower, improve the dripping effect, keep the moisture content of the mash at the optimal value, and is beneficial to improving the output and quality of liquor. It has good practicality and application value.
