[0002] Microbial fermentation refers to the process of using microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, etc.) to convert raw materials into products required by humans through specific metabolic pathways under suitable conditions. Microbial fermentation technology is an important part of modern biotechnology. It not only has important application value in industrial production, but also has important significance in scientific research. Through microbial fermentation technology, people can produce various useful compounds and biological products, making important contributions to the development and progress of human society. Microbial fermentation has a wide range of applications in the fields of pharmaceutical industry, food industry, energy industry, chemical industry, agriculture and environmental protection. For example, in the pharmaceutical industry, microbial fermentation is used to produce antibiotics, vaccines, etc.; in the food industry, microbial fermentation is used to produce products such as yogurt, soy sauce, vinegar, etc.; in environmental protection, microbial fermentation is used to treat wastewater, waste gas, etc.
[0003] During the microbial fermentation process, dirt such as yeast, protein impurities, hops and hop resin compounds may be deposited on the surface of the fermenter and related equipment. If these dirt are not cleaned in time, they may become obstacles to the growth and metabolism of microorganisms, and even lead to fermentation failure. Cleaning can effectively remove these dirt, reduce the risk of contamination, and ensure the smooth progress of the fermentation process.

At present, most cleaning devices clean through rotating brushes. However, this cleaning method is prone to missed cleaning areas and the cleaning is not thorough enough, which poses a high risk of contamination for the next fermentation.

[0023] Refer to Figure 2, specifically, the reciprocating assembly 22 further includes a vertical chute 222 and a support spring 227. The vertical chute 222 is fixedly arranged on the main board 11. The reciprocating connecting rod 221 is located inside the vertical chute 222. The upper end of the reciprocating connecting rod 221 is connected with a sliding block 223. The sliding block 223 is located in the vertical chute 222 and is slidably connected with the vertical chute 222. A connecting block 224 is connected to the sliding block 223. A moving rod 225 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 224. A slide rail 226 is formed on the driving cylinder body 213. The moving rod 225 is slidably connected with the slide rail 226. During the rotation of the driving cylinder body 213, the moving rod 225 is driven to move in the slide rail 226 through the slide rail 226, so that the moving rod 225 is lifted. The support spring 227 is arranged on the reciprocating connecting rod 221. The support spring 227 is located in the vertical chute 222. During the lifting process of the moving rod 225, the support spring 227 is stretched.
