[0037] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0038] Embodiment
[0039] Referring to the accompanying drawings of the specification, as Figures 1-11 shown, a microbial fermentation equipment includes a container 1, a first pipeline 2, a second pipeline 3, and a third pipeline 4. Specifically, the container 1 is a reaction kettle or other tank body.
[0040] As Figure 10 , 11As shown in the figure, the first pipeline 2 includes a first pipe segment 21, a second pipe segment 22, a third pipe segment 23, and a plurality of fourth pipe segments 24. The first pipe segment 21, the second pipe segment 22, and the third pipe segment 23 are all pipes with openings at both ends. Among them, the first pipe segment 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the container 1, and a part of the first pipe segment 21 can pass through the side wall of the container 1 and extend into the container 1. The first pipe segment 21 can be horizontally arranged, and its connection with the side wall of the container 1 is fixed by welding. The second pipe segment 22 is horizontally arranged inside the container 1, and the connection between the second pipe segment 22 and the first pipe segment 21 is detachable. Specifically, the second pipe segment 22 can be connected to the first pipeline 21 by threads, or the end of the second pipeline 22 is nested with the first pipe segment 21. The third pipe segment 23 is vertically arranged, and the third pipe segment 23 is fixedly communicated with the second pipe segment 22. Specifically, the third pipe segment 23 can be fixedly connected to the second pipe segment 22 by welding. A plurality of fourth pipe segments 24 are fixedly communicated with the third pipe segment 23 and are circumferentially distributed at the bottom of the third pipe segment 23. Fermentation raw materials can be pre-installed in the fourth pipe segments 24, so that microorganisms and gases in the fermentation process can contact the fermentation raw materials in the fourth pipe segments 24 through the first pipeline 2, and the liquid produced by fermentation falls inside the container 1.
[0041] Specifically, there are two structures for the fourth pipe segment 24. One is that both ends of the fourth pipe segment 24 are open. Therefore, the gas and microorganisms flowing through the first pipeline 2 can directly enter the container 1 through the open end of the fourth pipe segment 24. The other is as Figure 11 shown, a cover 241 is provided at one end of the fourth pipe segment 24. Usually, the cover 241 is in a closed state, and a plurality of through holes 242 are distributed on the surface of the fourth pipe segment 24. Microorganisms and gases enter the container 1 through the through holes 242. By providing the through holes 242 in the fourth pipe segment 24, the outflow of the fermentation liquid can be ensured while keeping the fermentation raw materials inside the fourth pipe segment 24. Optionally, the cover 241 can be detachably connected to the fourth pipe segment 24 by threaded connection or socket connection.
[0042] As Figure 10 shown, the second pipeline 3 is fixedly communicated with the side wall of the container 1. Further, the second pipeline 3 and the first pipe segment 21 in the first pipeline 2 are respectively located on opposite sides of the container 1, and the third pipe segment 23 is located in the middle of the container 1. The redundant gas remaining and generated during the fermentation process inside the container 1 can be discharged from the container 1 through the second pipeline 3. The second pipeline 3 is horizontally arranged, and the connection between the second pipeline 3 and the container 1 can be fixed by welding.
[0043] As Figure 1 、 Figure 3 shown, the third pipeline 4 can be fixedly communicated with the bottom of the container 1 by welding. Specifically, as Figure 10As shown in the figure, the third pipe 4 located in the center penetrates through the bottom wall of the container 1 and extends into the interior of the container 1. During the fermentation process, the liquid generated in the fourth pipe section 242 inevitably contains some residues. Due to the extended third pipe 4, there is a height difference between the third pipe 4 and the bottom wall of the container 1, and the residues accumulate on the bottom wall of the container 1. The liquid above the residues can flow out through the extended third pipe 4. The remaining third pipes 4 can be directly fixed to the bottom wall of the container 1 without extension. The switch of the third pipe 4 can be controlled by a valve or closed by a bottom cover. The bottom cover can be connected to the bottom of the third pipe 4 by means of threads.
[0044] An openable top cover 11 is provided above the container 1. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, a hinge seat 5 is fixedly provided at the top of one side wall of the container 1, and the top cover 11 is hinged to the container 1 through the hinge seat 5.
[0045] Furthermore, as Figure 2 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 shown, a support 6 is provided at the top of one side wall of the container 1. The support 6 and the hinge seat 5 are located on opposite sides of the container 1. A T-shaped pipe 61 is fixedly provided in the middle of the support 6. Above the T-shaped pipe 61, there is a pressing plate 62. A screw rod 63 is fixedly provided in the middle of the pressing plate 62. The bottom of the screw rod 63 is rotatably inserted into the middle of the T-shaped pipe 61. The two sides of the T-shaped pipe 61 are rotatably connected to the support 6. When the screw rod 63 rotates and presses down, the bottom of the pressing plate 62 contacts and presses the surface of the top cover 11, realizing the pressing and sealing between the top cover 11 and the container 1. When it is necessary to open the top cover 11, the screw rod 63 is screwed out upwards and then removed. Then, the T-shaped pipe 61 rotates around the support 6, so that the middle pipe of the T-shaped pipe 61 is set downward, and the top cover 11 can be opened. In order to facilitate the rotation of the screw rod 63, a second handle 64 is extended from the top of the screw rod 63 to both sides. At the same time, in order to facilitate the opening of the top cover 11, a first handle 12 is fixedly provided on the top cover 11.
[0046] In summary, the advantages of this application are as follows:
[0047] 1. The fermentation equipment can supply gas, microorganisms, etc. from the first pipe 2, ensuring the continuous progress of the fermentation process in the container 1; the gas in the fermentation equipment is discharged through the second pipe 3 to balance the internal and external air pressures of the container 1 during the fermentation process, thereby maintaining the fermentation environment; the fourth pipe sections 24 are circumferentially distributed, making the liquids and the like generated by the reaction more evenly distributed in the container, facilitating the improvement of the reaction efficiency and the collection of liquids, and thus improving the overall fermentation efficiency; the first pipe section 21 and the second pipe section 22 are detachable, facilitating the disassembly and cleaning of other parts of the first pipe 2 except the first pipe section 21.
[0048] 2. By providing the third pipe 4 with an extension, a height difference is created between the third pipe 4 and the bottom wall of the container 1. Residue accumulates on the bottom wall of the container 1, and the liquid above the residue can flow out through the extended third pipe 4.
[0049] 3. A support 6 is provided at the top of one side wall of the container 1, and the support 6 and the hinge seat 5 are located on opposite sides of the container 1. A T-shaped pipe 61 is fixedly provided in the middle of the support 6. Above the T-shaped pipe 61, there is a pressing plate 62. A screw rod 63 is fixedly provided in the middle of the pressing plate 62, and the bottom of the screw rod 63 is rotatably inserted into the middle of the T-shaped pipe 61. Both sides of the T-shaped pipe 61 are rotatably connected to the support 6. When the screw rod 63 rotates and presses down, the bottom of the pressing plate 62 contacts and presses the surface of the top cover 11, achieving the tight sealing between the top cover 11 and the container 1.
[0050] As described above, it is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
