[0035] The technical solution of the present application will be exemplarily described below through some embodiments.
[0036] See also Figure 1 to Figure 3 An embodiment of the present application provides a forage silage fermentation reservoir 100 , including an air inlet chamber 110 , a reservoir tank 120 , an air outlet chamber 130 and a pushing assembly 140 .
[0037] The air inlet chamber 110, the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130 are sequentially distributed along a first direction A, and the first direction A is perpendicular to the height direction B of the reserve tank. The air inlet chamber 110 is connected with an air supply pipe 111, the air inlet chamber 110 is connected with the reserve tank 120 through an air inlet hole, the reserve tank 120 is connected with the air outlet chamber 130 through an air outlet hole, and the air outlet chamber 130 is connected with an air extraction pipe 131.
[0038] The storage tank 120 can be designed in a conventional manner, such as a square tank, a circular tank, etc., with a storage cavity inside and a feed opening at the top. As an example, in an embodiment in which the storage tank 120 is a square tank, the first direction A corresponds to the width direction of the storage tank 120.
[0039] During use, generally, the silage material is added to the storage cavity of the storage tank 120, and then the feed opening of the storage tank 120 can be sealed by a sealing structure such as a film or a cover, and then the silage material is fermented in the storage cavity of the storage tank 120.
[0040] The air inlet chamber 110, the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130 are distributed and connected in sequence along the first direction A. As an example, the air inlet chamber 110 and the reserve tank 120 share a side wall, and the air inlet hole is opened through the side wall shared by the two; the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130 share a side wall, and the air outlet hole is opened through the side wall shared by the two.
[0041] The air supply pipe 111 is used to supply air to the air inlet chamber 110, and is exemplarily disposed on a side wall of the air inlet chamber 110 away from the storage tank 120 in the first direction A. The air extraction pipe 131 is used to extract the gas in the air outlet chamber 130, and is exemplarily disposed on a side wall of the air outlet chamber 130 away from the storage tank 120 in the first direction A.
[0042] The forage silage fermentation storage device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is equipped with an air inlet chamber 110, a storage tank 120 and an air outlet chamber 130 which are connected in sequence. The anaerobic replacement gas (such as carbon dioxide) is passed from the air inlet chamber 110 into the storage tank 120, and the residual oxygen in the storage tank 120 can be replaced by the air outlet chamber 130 and then discharged. Based on the above design, the oxygen content in the fermentation environment can be reduced, which is beneficial to shorten the aerobic decomposition process, thereby improving the problem of silage nutritional loss and corruption.
[0043] The pushing assembly 140 includes a pushing plate 141 and a driver 142; push plates 141 are respectively distributed at both ends of the storage tank 120 in the first direction A, and the push plates 141 extend from one end of the storage tank 120 in the second direction C to the other end. The second direction C is perpendicular to the first direction A, and the second direction C is perpendicular to the height direction B of the storage tank. A vent is opened through the push plate 141 along the first direction A; the driver 142 is transmission-connected to the push plate 141, and is used to drive the push plate 141 to reciprocate along the first direction A.
[0044] It is understandable that the push plate 141 is located in the storage cavity of the storage tank 120. As an example, in an embodiment where the storage tank 120 is a square tank, the second direction C corresponds to the length direction of the storage tank 120.
[0045] The driver 142 can provide the push plate 141 with power for reciprocating motion along the first direction A, and is exemplarily a linear motor. Of course, it can also be configured as other forms capable of outputting linear motion.
[0046] The installation position of the driver 142 is not limited. On the side of the reserve tank 120 close to the air inlet chamber 110, the driver 142 can be installed on the side wall shared by the air inlet chamber 110 and the reserve tank 120, or the driver 142 can be installed in the air inlet chamber 110. Similarly, on the side of the reserve tank 120 close to the air outlet chamber 130, the driver 142 can be installed on the side wall shared by the air outlet chamber 130 and the reserve tank 120, or the driver 142 can be installed in the air outlet chamber 130.
[0047] It should be noted that, during the process of the driver 142 driving the push plate 141 to reciprocate along the first direction A, the push plate 141 has a movement process of approaching the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120 and a movement process of moving away from the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120. During the movement process of approaching the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120, the movement stop point of the push plate 141 is defined as the first position. When the push plate 141 is at the first position, the push plate 141 can fit the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120, and a certain gap can be retained between the two. During the movement process of moving away from the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120, the movement stop point of the push plate 141 is defined as the second position. When the push plate 141 is at the second position, the push plate 141 and the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120 should be spaced apart. At this time, the gap between the push plate 141 and the inner side of the corresponding side wall of the reserve tank 120 is defined as the preset gap.
[0048] The forage silage fermentation storage device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can squeeze and stir the silage material by the push plates 141 arranged at both ends of the storage tank 120 in the first direction A moving toward each other, which is beneficial to squeeze out the residual oxygen between the silage materials. Based on the above design, the oxygen content in the fermentation environment can be reduced, which is beneficial to shorten the aerobic decomposition process, thereby improving the problem of silage nutritional loss and corruption.
[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, each push plate 141 extends from one end of the storage tank 120 in the second direction C to the other end, and can better squeeze and stir the silage material between the two push plates 141; at the same time, vent holes are provided on the push plates 141. On the one hand, it is convenient for the replacement gas to enter between the silage materials, and the residual oxygen can be discharged more fully. On the other hand, the air is distributed through the vent holes of the push plates 141. The air inlet chamber 110 and the storage tank 120 only need to be connected through one or a few air inlet holes, and there is no need to configure a large number of air inlet holes between the air inlet chamber 110 and the storage tank 120. Similarly, the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130 only need to be connected through one or a few air outlet holes, and there is no need to configure a large number of air outlet holes between the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130, which is beneficial to maintaining the corresponding outer wall strength of the air inlet chamber 110, the reserve tank 120 and the air outlet chamber 130; in addition, after driving the push plate 141 to move to the second position, the preset gap between the push plate 141 and the inner side of the side wall of the reserve tank 120 can be used as a gas distribution space, which is beneficial to fully disperse the replacement gas in the cross section perpendicular to the first direction A, and is also beneficial to better discharge the residual oxygen in the reserve tank 120.
[0050] In some embodiments, the push plate 141 extends from the bottom to the top of the reservoir 120. As an example, the bottom of the push plate 141 is slidably and sealingly matched with the bottom wall of the reservoir 120.
[0051] Optionally, in the second direction C, the length of the push plate 141 is substantially consistent with the length of the storage cavity of the storage tank 120 , and both ends of the push plate 141 are slidably engaged with the inner side of the side wall of the storage tank 120 .
[0052] Based on the above design, the silage material can be enclosed between the opposite push plates 141 and the side wall of the storage chamber, which is beneficial for the push plates 141 to better push the silage material.
[0053] In some embodiments, each push plate 141 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes, and the plurality of ventilation holes are respectively distributed at the edge and the middle of the push plate 141 .
[0054] As an example, the plurality of vent holes are evenly distributed throughout the push plate 141 .
[0055] In the above technical solution, the plurality of vent holes have a wider distribution range on the push plate 141 , which is conducive to better dispersion of the replaced gas filled in the reserve tank 120 , thereby facilitating more sufficient discharge of the residual oxygen in the reserve tank 120 .
[0056] In some embodiments, the push plate 141 can move to a first position when reciprocating along the first direction A. When the push plate 141 is at the first position, the push plate 141 is in contact with the inner side of the side wall of the storage tank 120 .
[0057] In the above technical solution, since the push plate 141 can fit together with the inner side of the side wall of the reserve tank 120, when adding silage materials into the reserve tank 120, the push plate 141 is moved to fit together with the inner side of the side wall of the reserve tank 120, so as to prevent the silage materials from entering the gap between the push plate 141 and the side wall of the reserve tank 120, which is conducive to the push plate 141 to better push the silage materials.
[0058] In some embodiments, the push plate 141 can move to a second position when reciprocating in the first direction A. When the push plate 141 is at the second position, a preset gap is provided between the push plate 141 and the inner side of the side wall of the corresponding storage tank 120. The storage tank 120 is provided with a gas sampling port, which is connected to the preset gap.
[0059] As an example, the gas sampling ports are opened on the side walls of the storage tank 120 that are oppositely distributed along the second direction C.
[0060] Considering that aerobic decomposition of silage materials during fermentation will produce specific gases, in the above technical solution, the gas is sampled from a preset gap through a gas sampling port, and analysis of the sampled gas is helpful to determine the aerobic decomposition situation during the fermentation process.
[0061] In some embodiments, the storage tank 120 is provided with a liquid sampling port, which is connected to the bottom of the preset gap.
[0062] As an example, the liquid sampling port is opened on the bottom wall of the storage tank 120, or is opened on the side walls of the storage tank 120 that are oppositely distributed along the second direction C.
[0063] Taking into account that the corruption of silage materials during the ensiling process will produce putrefaction, and the anaerobic fermentation process will anaerobically decompose soluble sugars into lactic acid, in the above technical scheme, the liquid is sampled from a preset gap through a liquid sampling port, and the sampled liquid is analyzed, which is helpful for judging the fermentation process.
[0064] In some embodiments, a protruding area 121 is provided in the middle of the bottom wall of the storage tank 120 , and the height of the protruding area 121 gradually decreases from the middle to both ends in the first direction A.
[0065] As an example, when the push plate 141 is located at the second position, in the first direction A, the push plate 141 corresponds to the edge of the protruding area 121 .
[0066] In the above technical solution, the bottom wall of the storage tank 120 is high in the middle and low on both sides, which is conducive to the liquid flowing to both sides and gathering in the preset gap, making it convenient to sample the liquid.
[0067] Optionally, when the push plate 141 is in the second position, the area of the bottom wall of the storage tank 120 corresponding to the preset gap is basically horizontal, which is conducive to the bottom of the push plate 141 to better fit with the bottom wall of the storage tank 120 when the push plate 141 moves along the first direction A.
[0068] In some embodiments, the height of the bottom wall of the reserve tank 120 gradually decreases from one end to the other end in the second direction C.
[0069] In the above technical solution, in the second direction C, one end of the storage tank 120 is high and the other end is low, which is conducive to the liquid gathering to the lower end, so that when the liquid gathers in the preset gap, it gathers at the lower end of the preset gap, which is conducive to more convenient liquid sampling.
[0070] Further, in the second direction C, the end of the bottom wall of the storage tank 120 with a lower height is a preset end; and the liquid sampling port is located at the preset end.
[0071] Since the height of the preset end is relatively low, the liquid mainly gathers at the preset end. In the above technical solution, the liquid sampling port is opened at the preset end, which is more convenient for liquid sampling.
[0072] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
