[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5The top of the conversion pipe 5 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 21, the top of the rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected to a control handle 22, the bottom of the rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected to a rotating cylinder 23, the outside of the rotating cylinder 23 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the conversion pipe 5, the bottom of the semicircular plate 24 is in contact with the top of the rotating cylinder 23, the inner wall of the conversion pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the semicircular plate 24, a discharge hole 25 is provided on one side of the outside of the rotating cylinder 23, and a reflux hole 26 is provided on the top of the rotating cylinder 23. When the discharge hole 25 is aligned with the output pipe 6, the reflux hole 26 on the top is blocked by the semicircular plate 24, so that the gas only It flows to the next unit through the output pipe 6. When the semicircular plate 24 cannot block the reflux hole 26, the gas only enters the bottom of the alcohol storage tank 3 through the reflux pipe 29 for secondary processing. The outside of the rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected with a ratchet 27, and the top of the conversion pipe 5 is rotatably connected with a pawl 28.

The reflux pipe 29 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outside of the conversion pipe 5, and the left bottom of the reflux pipe 29 is fixedly connected to the inside of the alcohol storage tank 3.

[0028] Compared with some devices in the prior art, the above content further refines the bubbles through the bubble decomposition mechanism inside the alcohol storage tank 3 so as to react better, and is discharged by the cooperation of multiple valves, so that the carbon dioxide is aseptically and decompressed and enters a positive pressure space. The filled canned products are in a sterile carbon dioxide state in this positive pressure space, reducing the risk of contamination and oxidation.

[0029] Working principle: First, carbon dioxide is released from the storage tank and transported through the delivery pipe. This carbon dioxide plays a vital role in beer production. It not only protects beer from oxidation, but also helps to ensure the taste and quality of beer. After the carbon dioxide is pressure-regulated by the pressure reducing valve 18, it enters the alcohol storage tank 3, where the treated alcohol solution is stored for further processing of the beer.

[0030] In the alcohol storage tank 3, carbon dioxide passes through the bubble decomposition plate at the bottom, making the gas more finely and evenly distributed in the alcohol solution. Such refined bubbles help improve the efficiency of the chemical reaction and ensure the full utilization and reaction of the alcohol. The treated liquid is transmitted to the conversion pipeline 5 through the delivery pipe, where the device allows the operator to adjust the flow direction of the liquid as needed by operating the control handle 22 and the rotating rod 21.

[0031] The rotating cylinder 23 in the conversion pipe 5 is adjusted according to the position of the control handle 22 to determine whether the gas is directly output through the output pipe 6 or returned to the alcohol storage tank 3 through the return pipe 29 for secondary processing. This step is controlled by the relative positions of the discharge hole 25 and the return hole 26 on the rotating cylinder 23 and the semicircular plate 24. When the discharge hole 25 is aligned with the output pipe 6, the gas flows to the next processing unit through the output pipe 6; and when the return hole 26 is open, the gas returns to the alcohol storage tank 3.

[0032] Finally, the treated liquid enters the conveyor sterile housing 7, which is a relatively closed and sterile environment to ensure that the liquid is not contaminated by the outside world during the conveying process. The conveyor belt 12 moves the liquid smoothly to the next production stage or packaging area. Throughout the process, the transparent observation glass 13 allows the operator to monitor the entire process and ensure that everything is carried out according to the predetermined standards.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
