Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of fermentation devices, in particular to a fermentation tank facilitating feeding. Background Art

[0002] Fermentation is a biochemical reaction process in which microorganisms, such as bacteria and yeast, under anaerobic or low-oxygen environments, through the action of enzymes, convert organic substances into simpler substances while releasing energy. This process has extensive applications in multiple industries such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and biofuel. A fermentation tank is an industrial device used for microbial fermentation. In the fermentation tank, microorganisms grow and reproduce under suitable conditions, and convert raw materials into required products through the fermentation process.

[0003] Regarding current fermentation tanks, the height of the tank body is generally relatively high. During actual operation, it usually requires workers to climb to the top of the tank for manual feeding. This operation may cause a relatively high working intensity, and thus may have a negative impact on work efficiency. In addition, during the process of the raw material falling from the top of the tank, affected by gravity, it may cause a certain impact on the stirring frame and the bottom of the tank, and there may even be a potential damage risk.

[0004] Therefore, the utility model provides a fermentation tank facilitating feeding to solve the problems raised in the above background art. Content of the Utility Model

The suction mechanism sucks the raw materials through a suction pump, and the control mechanism can control the up and down movement of the movable outer tube while controlling the switch of the conduction pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, an electric stirring frame is fixedly sleeved on the upper top surface of the tank body, and a support frame is fixedly sleeved near the lower end outside the tank body;

[0016] Furthermore, a storage bucket is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the bottom plate, and the lower end of the movable outer tube is directly opposite to the bucket mouth of the storage bucket;

[0017] Through the above technical solution, the storage bucket is a device for temporarily storing raw materials, and the movable outer tube can play the role of extending the conduction pipe.

[0018] Furthermore, the first moving block is slidably arranged in the air chamber, and the second moving block is slidably arranged in the air chamber;

[0019] Through the above technical solution, the air chamber is composed of two connected chambers. The two moving blocks slide in the two chambers respectively, and the air chamber realizes the linkage of the two moving blocks.

[0020] Furthermore, the movable outer tube is slidably arranged at one end of the conduction tube away from the tank body, and one end of each of the two connecting frames is fixedly connected to the movable outer tube;

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the two connecting frames connect the movable outer tube from both sides, which can not only stabilize the movable outer tube but also drive the movable outer tube to slide up and down.

[0035] Refer to Figures 1-5 , an embodiment provided by the present invention: A fermentation tank facilitating feeding, including a fermentation mechanism 1. The fermentation mechanism 1 includes a tank body 101. A buffer inclined plane 104 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the tank body 101.

The electric stirring frame 103 can fully stir the raw materials in the tank. The buffer inclined plane 104 plays a buffering role when the raw materials fall, slowing down the impact caused by the falling of the raw materials;

[0037] A suction mechanism 2 is arranged at the upper end of the fermentation mechanism 1. The suction mechanism 2 includes a conducting pipe 202 and a moving outer pipe 205. A fixed plate 203 is fixedly sleeved outside the pipe body of the conducting pipe 202. A sliding block 204 is slidably arranged inside the fixed plate 203. One end of the conducting pipe 202 is conductively fixed at the upper end of the tank body 101. A suction pump 201 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the conducting pipe 202. The moving outer pipe 205 is slidably arranged at the outer end of the conducting pipe 202 away from the tank body 101;

[0038] A suction mechanism 2 is provided in the fermenter. The suction mechanism 2 is a structure for sucking raw materials into the fermenter. The up-and-down sliding of the sliding block 204 can control the conduction state of the conduction pipe 202. The suction pump 201 can suck raw materials into the conduction pipe 202, and the movable outer pipe 205 can slide up and down to adjust the length of the entire pipeline;

[0039] A control mechanism 3 is provided at the lower end of the suction mechanism 2. The control mechanism 3 includes a bottom plate 301, a vertical plate 307 and two side plates 303. The vertical plate 307 is fixedly arranged on one side of the bottom plate 301 close to the tank body 101. The two side plates 303 are respectively fixedly arranged at the front and rear ends of the bottom plate 301. A storage bucket 302 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the bottom plate 301. The lower end of the movable outer pipe 205 faces the bucket mouth of the storage bucket 302. A first movable block 308 is slidably arranged at the upper end of the vertical plate 307. The first movable block 308 is slidably arranged in the air chamber 309. A second movable block 310 is slidably arranged in the air chamber 309. The second movable block 310 is slidably arranged on the side of the vertical plate 307 away from the tank body 101. The upper end of the first movable block 308 faces the lower end of the sliding block 204. The upper end of the second movable block 310 is located below one of the two connecting frames 305. An air chamber 309 is formed inside the vertical plate 307. Electric screw rods 304 are fixedly arranged inside the two side plates 303 near the opposite sides.

The control mechanism 3 can not only control the up-and-down sliding of the movable outer pipe 205, but also control the conduction state of the conduction pipe 202. The rotation of the electric screw rod 304 drives the up-and-down sliding of the threaded block 306, and further drives the up-and-down movement of the movable outer pipe 205 through the connecting frame 305. At the same time, the up-and-down movement of one of the connecting frames 305 will drive the up-and-down movement of the second movable block 310, and then the gas in the air chamber 309 is used to push the first movable block 308 up and down to achieve the purpose of pushing the sliding block 204 to control the switch of the conduction pipe 202.

[0041] Working principle: When raw materials need to be added to the fermentation tank, the rotation of the electric lead screw 304 drives the threaded block 306 to move downward, and then drives the movable outer tube 205 to move downward through the connecting frame 305 until the lower end of the movable outer tube 205 is inserted into the storage barrel 302. At the same time, one of the connecting frames 305 drives the second movable block 310 to move downward, and then the gas in the air chamber 309 pushes the first movable block 308 to move upward. The first movable block 308 pushes the sliding block 204 to move upward, and the conduction tube 202 becomes in a conduction state. The raw materials enter the conduction tube 202 under the action of the suction pump 201. Then the raw materials slowly enter the fermentation tank through the buffer slope 104, completing the feeding operation of the fermentation tank.
