Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of soy sauce processing, in particular to a koji making device. Background Art

[0002] Soy sauce evolved from soybean paste. It was originally brewed with animal protein, and later gradually switched to plant protein from beans and grains. The main raw materials of soy sauce include soybeans, wheat, etc., among which soybeans are one of the main raw materials. High-quality soybeans must be selected and fully soaked and steamed. Koji making is an important part of the soy sauce brewing process. By inoculating soy sauce mold, soybeans and wheat are mixed and fermented to form "koji". The temperature and humidity need to be controlled during the koji making process to ensure the quality and taste of the koji.

[0003] During the koji making process, microorganisms consume nutrients in the koji material for growth and fermentation. By adding liquid (such as glucose solution), additional nutrients can be provided to the microorganisms to promote their growth and activity. In order to achieve precise liquid spraying control, more sensors and control systems may need to be used, which will increase the energy consumption and use cost of the equipment. In addition, some existing equipment may not be able to accurately control the amount of liquid spraying according to the stirring speed. Changes in stirring speed will directly affect the mixing effect of the koji material and the uniformity of liquid distribution. If the stirring speed is too fast, the liquid may not be able to fully penetrate into the koji material, and if the stirring speed is too slow, the liquid may be concentrated in a certain area, causing the koji material to be too wet or too dry. This uneven humidity distribution will affect the growth and fermentation effect of microorganisms, and thus affect the quality of koji making.

A plurality of eccentric magnetic blocks 504 are fixedly arranged on the transmission shaft 503. Two mounting blocks 701 are arranged on the limiting ring 7. One end of the material spreading device 501 and the material turning device 502 away from the driving motor 5 are respectively rotatably connected to the inside of the mounting block 701. The inside of the base 2 is provided with a mounting cavity 201 and a transmission gear 507. The bottom wall of the chassis 702 is fixedly connected with a driven gear ring 703. The driven gear ring 703 is rotatably connected to the mounting cavity 201, and the connecting gear 506 Located inside the installation cavity 201, the connecting gear 506 and the driven gear ring 703 are connected by the connecting gear 506, the chassis 702 carries the raw materials in the koji making process, and the driven gear ring 703 interacts with the transmission gear 507 and the connecting gear 506 in the installation cavity 201 to realize the rotation of the chassis 702. This rotation can help the raw materials to be more evenly affected by the material spreading device 501 and the material turning device 502. An adaptive liquid spraying device is arranged on the mounting frame 6 away from the material spreading device 501;

[0026] It should be noted that: the top of the chassis 702 is sealed with the limiting ring 7 and the bottom of the driving motor 5 to ensure that the material inside the koji making machine 1 will not leak when the chassis 702 rotates, and the transmission gear 507 is meshed with the driven gear ring 703 and the connecting gear 506 to ensure the smooth rotation of the chassis 702;

[0027] Reference Figure 4-Figure 7 The adaptive liquid spraying device comprises a liquid storage tank 8 fixedly arranged on a mounting frame 6, a plurality of liquid outlet channels 802 are equidistantly arranged at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 8, a liquid injection port 801 is connected through the upper end of the liquid storage tank 8 for replenishing the liquid in the liquid storage tank 8, a liquid outlet piston 9 is slidably connected inside the liquid outlet channel 802, a limit plate 903 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the liquid outlet piston 9, and an upper side wall of the limit plate 903 is elastically connected to the bottom wall of the liquid storage tank 8 via a return spring 904;

[0028] Furthermore, the return spring 904 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the liquid outlet piston 9, and a plurality of liquid inlet grooves 901 are provided in an annular shape on the liquid outlet piston 9 above the limit plate 903, which are used to guide the liquid in the liquid storage tank 8 to the liquid outlet piston 9, and a plurality of liquid outlet holes 902 are provided in an annular shape at the bottom of the liquid outlet piston 9, which are used to discharge the liquid in the liquid outlet piston 9, and the ends of the liquid inlet grooves 901 and the liquid outlet holes 902 are both penetrated through the side wall of the liquid outlet piston 9;

[0029] It should be noted that the number of eccentric magnetic blocks 504 is equal to that of the liquid outlet channel 802 and they are arranged opposite to the liquid outlet channel 802, which ensures that the eccentric magnetic blocks 504 can apply intermittent magnetic force to the liquid outlet piston 9. The distal end of the liquid outlet channel 802 and the bottom end of the liquid outlet piston 9 are arranged with the same polarity. The magnetic force between the distal end of the liquid outlet channel 802 and the bottom end of the liquid outlet piston 9 is greater than the elastic force of the reset spring 904. When the reset spring 904 is in the initial state, the liquid inlet groove 901 is located inside the liquid outlet channel 802. At this time, the liquid outlet channel 802 is in a closed state. When the distal end of the liquid outlet channel 802 is opposite to the bottom end of the liquid outlet piston 9, the liquid inlet groove 901 is located inside the liquid storage tank 8. At this time, the liquid outlet channel 802 is in an open state. The transmission shaft 503 rotates with the rotation of the drive motor 5, and the eccentric magnetic blocks 504 thereon also rotate accordingly. These eccentric magnetic blocks 504 are used to magnetically interact with the liquid outlet piston 9 in the adaptive liquid spraying device to control the liquid spraying operation.

[0030] The working principle of the koji-making device is as follows: the raw materials are transported to the inside of the koji-making machine 1 through the storage chamber 3 and the conveying pipeline 4, the conveying pipeline 4 runs through the side wall of the koji-making machine 1, and ensures that the raw materials can smoothly enter the chassis 702 in the koji-making machine 1, and the driving motor 5 drives the spreading device 501 and the turning device 502 through the bevel gear set 505, the spreading device 501 is used to spread the raw materials evenly, and the turning device 502 is used to turn the raw materials to ensure uniform fermentation of the raw materials. In this process, the rotation of the chassis 702 can be realized through the interaction between the driven gear ring 703 and the transmission gear 507 and the connecting gear 506 in the installation cavity 201, and this rotation helps the raw materials to be more evenly processed in the subsequent process; a sealing arrangement is provided between the top of the chassis 702 and the limit ring 7 and the bottom of the driving motor 5 to ensure that when the chassis 702 rotates, the material inside the koji-making machine 1 will not leak;

[0031] The adaptive liquid spraying device stores liquid (such as glucose solution) through the liquid storage tank 8, and controls the liquid spraying through the liquid outlet channel 802. A liquid outlet piston 9 is arranged in the liquid outlet channel 802, and the piston is controlled by a return spring 904 and an eccentric magnetic block 504. When the eccentric magnetic block 504 on the transmission shaft 503 rotates to a position directly opposite to the liquid outlet channel 802, due to the effect of magnetic force, the liquid outlet piston 9 is repelled and moves upward. At this time, the liquid inlet groove 901 is located inside the liquid storage tank 8, and the liquid inside the liquid storage tank 8 will enter the liquid outlet piston 9 through the liquid inlet groove 901, and finally be discharged from the liquid outlet hole 902; when the eccentric magnetic block 504 leaves this position, the return spring 904 pushes the liquid outlet piston 9 back to its original position. At this time, the liquid inlet groove 901 is located inside the liquid outlet channel 802, and the liquid in the liquid storage tank 8 no longer flows out;

[0032] By adjusting the rotation speed of the driving motor 5, the movement frequency of the liquid outlet piston 9 per unit time can be controlled, that is, the liquid ejection frequency can be controlled. This design realizes the precise control of liquid ejection, ensuring that the raw materials are evenly moistened and supplied with nutrients during the koji making process. The liquid is evenly ejected through the liquid outlet hole 902 in the adaptive liquid spraying device, covering the raw materials, providing the necessary humidity and nutrients for the koji making process. At the same time, when the eccentric magnetic blocks 504 are close to the raw materials in the koji making machine 1, they will knock and stir the raw materials. This knocking and stirring helps to break up the lumps of the raw materials and make them looser, making them easier to mix evenly with the liquid. At the same time, the knocking and stirring can also increase the surface area of ​​the raw materials and improve the adhesion between the liquid and the raw materials. The contact area further promotes the uniform distribution of the liquid and the full wetting of the raw materials; in particular, this design can respond to changes in the stirring speed in a timely manner. When the stirring speed increases, the rotation speed of the driving motor 5 will also increase accordingly, thereby increasing the movement frequency of the liquid outlet piston 9 and the liquid ejection frequency. In this way, the liquid can cover the raw materials more quickly and mix more fully with the raw materials. Similarly, when the stirring speed decreases, the movement frequency of the liquid outlet piston 9 and the liquid ejection frequency will also decrease accordingly to avoid excessive liquid. By accurately controlling the liquid ejection frequency and the stirring speed of the raw materials, it can be ensured that the raw materials are fully moistened and nutrient-supplied during the koji making process, thereby improving the quality and taste of the product.

[0033] As the driving motor 5 continues to work, the chassis 702 rotates continuously, the material spreading device 501 and the material turning device 502 continuously process the raw materials, and the adaptive liquid spraying device sprays liquid as needed. The entire koji making process is carried out under the coordinated action of these components until the expected koji making effect is achieved;

[0034] Through this koji-making device, uniform processing of raw materials, precise control of liquid spraying and good sealing can be achieved, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of koji-making. This design is simple and efficient, and does not require complex control systems and sensors to achieve precise control of liquid spraying and uniform stirring of raw materials. It reduces the complexity and cost of the koji-making device and improves product quality and processing efficiency.
