Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of vinegar brewing, in particular to a vinegar mash vat for vinegar brewing. Background Art

[0002] The fermented grain vat for vinegar brewing is a specific equipment used in the vinegar brewing process, which is designed to improve the brewing efficiency and the quality of vinegar. The fermented grain vat for vinegar brewing specifically refers to the equipment used in the vinegar production process, mainly used in the fermentation stage to optimize the brewing process and improve the quality of the final product. The design of this fermented grain vat usually includes an internal structure that is easy to operate and control, such as an insulation layer, a temperature control system, etc., to ensure that the fermentation environment meets the requirements for producing high-quality vinegar.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN215593037U discloses a vinegar mash cylinder for vinegar brewing. A driving motor can drive a horizontal column connected to a rotating shaft to rotate in the cylinder body, thereby facilitating driving two rotating rods to make circular motion in the cylinder body. The rotating rods can rotate in the process of making circular motion in conjunction with a self-rotating driving component. The rotating rods cooperate with propeller blades to facilitate comprehensive and uniform tipping of the vinegar mash in the cylinder body, avoiding inefficient manual tipping, thereby effectively improving production efficiency.

[0004] After the vinegar fermented grains vat is finished brewing vinegar, the raw materials for brewing are accumulated inside the vat. In order to ensure the normal brewing of the subsequent vinegar, the raw materials inside need to be taken out and the inner wall of the vat needs to be cleaned. However, there is no structure inside the vat to assist in taking out the raw materials. Therefore, the staff needs to take out the raw materials inside the vat. Since there are many raw materials inside the vat and there are many vinegar fermented grains vats, the efficiency of manually taking out the materials is slow, which will affect the subsequent brewing of vinegar. How to improve these problems has become an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0014] Preferably, the outer wall of the extension tube is slidably connected to the inner wall of the second pipe, and the bottom ring and the clamping ring are both slidably connected to the outer wall of the first pipe and the outer wall of the second pipe.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection between pipe 2 and pipe 1 can be completed by sliding, and the bottom ring and the clamping ring can restrict pipe 1 and pipe 2 by sliding.

[0016] Preferably, the outer wall of the clamping ring is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom ring, the square plates are distributed on the outer wall of the bottom ring and the outer wall of the clamping ring, and the inner wall of the fixing frame is slidably connected to the outer wall of the square plates.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping ring can be rotated on the top of the bottom ring, and the fixing frame can be moved by sliding, so that the fixing frame restricts the bottom ring and the clamping ring.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the implementation of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the implementation of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation of the utility model. Obviously, the described implementation is a part of the implementation of the utility model, not all of the implementations. Based on the implementation of the utility model, all other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-5 A vinegar mash cylinder for vinegar brewing includes a vinegar mash cylinder 1, a cover 2 installed on the top of the vinegar mash cylinder 1, and a cylinder turning motor 3 installed on the top of the cover 2. A driving component 4 is installed at the bottom of the vinegar mash cylinder 1. The driving component 4 consists of a booster unit and a connecting unit 404. The booster unit is located at the bottom of the vinegar mash cylinder 1, and the connecting unit 404 is located on the outer wall of the booster unit. A lifting component 5 is installed inside the vinegar mash cylinder 1.

[0034] The booster unit includes a bottom bin 401, a barometer 402 and an air pump 403. The bottom bin 401 is installed at the bottom of the vinegar mash cylinder 1. The bottom of the outer wall of the vinegar mash cylinder 1 is provided with a thread. The inner wall of the bottom bin 401 is adapted to the thread provided at the bottom of the outer wall of the vinegar mash cylinder 1. The bottom bin 401 can be moved by rotating to complete the connection between the bottom bin 401 and the vinegar mash cylinder 1. The barometer 402 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom bin 401, and the air pump 403 is arranged outside the bottom bin 401.

[0035] The connecting unit 404 comprises a pipe 1 4041, a pipe 2 4042, an extension pipe 4043, a bottom ring 4044, a snap ring 4045, a square plate 4046 and a fixing frame 4047. The pipe 1 4041 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the air pump 403, the pipe 2 4042 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom bin 401. After the air pump 403 is started, the high-pressure air can be transported to the interior of the bottom bin 401 through the pipe 1 4041 and the pipe 2 4042. The extension pipe 4043 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pipe 1 4041, and the outer wall of the extension pipe 4043 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the pipe 2 4042, so that the connection between the pipe 2 4042 and the pipe 1 4041 can be completed by sliding. The bottom ring 4044 is arranged at the bottom of the pipe 1 4041, the snap ring 4045 is installed at the top of the bottom ring 4044, and the bottom ring 4046 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom bin 401. 044 and the retaining ring 4045 are both slidably connected to the outer wall of pipe one 4041 and the outer wall of pipe two 4042, and the bottom ring 4044 and the retaining ring 4045 can restrict pipe one 4041 and pipe two 4042 by sliding. The outer wall of the retaining ring 4045 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom ring 4044, and the retaining ring 4045 can rotate on the top of the bottom ring 4044. The square plate 4046 is installed on the outer wall of the bottom ring 4044. The square plates 4046 are distributed on the outer wall of the bottom ring 4044 and the outer wall of the retaining ring 4045. The fixed frame 4047 is installed on the outer wall of the square plate 4046. The inner wall of the fixed frame 4047 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the square plate 4046. The fixed frame 4047 can be moved by sliding so that the fixed frame 4047 restricts the bottom ring 4044 and the retaining ring 4045.

[0036] By setting the bottom bin 401 and the air pump 403, the operation of the air pump 403 is controlled so that the air pump 403 delivers high-pressure air to the inside of the bottom bin 401 through the pipeline 1 4041 and the pipeline 2 4042. When the air pressure inside the bottom bin 401 rises to a certain height, the raw materials accumulated inside the vinegar mash cylinder 1 will be pushed up, which is convenient for operators to handle the raw materials. At the same time, since the bottom bin 401 and the vinegar mash cylinder 1 are in a threaded connection relationship, the bottom bin 401 can be moved by rotation, thereby completing the disassembly and assembly between the bottom bin 401 and the vinegar mash cylinder 1, and the air pump 403 and the bottom bin 401 are connected by the connecting unit 404. When the bottom bin 401 needs to be disassembled, the air pump 403 can be disassembled by adjusting the connecting unit 404, thereby avoiding the existence of the air pump 403 and affecting the rotation of the bottom bin 401.

[0037] The lifting assembly 5 includes a limiting rod 501, a support plate 502 and a sealing gasket 503. The limiting rod 501 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vinegar mash cylinder 1, and the support plate 502 is installed on the inner wall of the vinegar mash cylinder 1. The top of the support plate 502 is a conical surface, and the support plate 502 with a conical surface can guide the raw materials. The sealing gasket 503 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 502. The presence of the sealing gasket 503 can seal the connection between the support plate 502 and the vinegar mash cylinder 1 to avoid leakage of vinegar. The limiting rod 501 penetrates the support plate 502 and the sealing gasket 503, and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support plate 502 and the inner wall of the sealing gasket 503. The presence of the limiting rod 501 can ensure the stability of the support plate 502 during movement.

[0038] By setting a limit rod 501, when the support plate 502 moves upward under the action of high-pressure gas, it will slide on the outer wall of the limit rod 501. Since the limit rod 501 is distributed around the support plate 502 and is stuck in the groove of the outer wall of the support plate 502, when the support plate 502 is in the process of rising, the limit rod 501 can limit the support plate 502, thereby ensuring the stability of the support plate 502 during the rising process.

[0039] The working principle of the vinegar fermented grains cylinder for vinegar brewing is as follows: after the vinegar brewing is completed, when the raw materials need to be taken out, the cover 2 is removed from the top of the vinegar fermented grains cylinder 1, and by controlling the operation of the air pump 403, the air pump 403 transmits high-pressure air to the inside of the bottom bin 401 through the pipeline 1 4041 and the pipeline 2 4042. When the air pressure inside the bottom bin 401 rises to a certain height, the support plate 502 will drive the sealing gasket 503 to push the raw materials to be lifted under the action of the high-pressure air, so that the raw materials overflow the vinegar fermented grains cylinder 1. After the raw materials are completely taken out from the inside of the vinegar fermented grains cylinder 1, the support plate 502 is removed from the inside of the vinegar fermented grains cylinder 1. Take out and stop the operation of the air pump 403, slide the fixed frame 4047 to separate the fixed frame 4047 from the square plate 4046, and rotate the snap ring 4045 to separate the snap ring 4045 and the bottom ring 4044 from the pipe 1 4041 and the pipe 2 4042. At this time, the air pump 403 can be disassembled by sliding. After the disassembly of the air pump 403 is completed, the bottom bin 401 is moved by rotating so that the bottom bin 401 is separated from the vinegar mash cylinder 1 under the action of the thread. At this time, the operator can clean the inner wall of the vinegar mash cylinder 1, the outer wall of the support plate 502 and the inner wall of the bottom bin 401.

[0040] The above description is only the preferred implementation of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
