DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-4, A polysaccharide extraction fermentation tank with a heating mechanism, comprising a housing 1 and a tank body 2. The tank body 2 is fixed inside the housing 1. A heating mechanism for stirring and heating is provided on the tank body 2. The heating mechanism includes a first motor 3 and a heating device 4. The heating device 4 is fixed at the bottom end of the housing 1. A heating column 5 is installed at the top end of the heating device 4. The heating column 5 passes upward through the housing 1 and the tank body 2. The heating column 5 is located inside the tank body 2. Three groups of heating components are fixed on the heating column 5. The three groups of heating components are evenly distributed up and down. The heating component includes a heating plate 6. There are three heating plates 6. The three heating plates 6 are evenly fixed on the outer wall of the heating column 5. The heating plate 6 is set to have a certain curvature. A plurality of leakage holes 7 are opened on the heating plate 6. A plurality of flow guiding strips 8 are fixed at the front end of the heating plate 6. The first motor 3 is installed at the top end of the housing 1. The output end of the first motor 3 passes downward through the housing 1 and the tank body 2 and is fixed with a rotating component. The rotating component is located inside the tank body 2. The rotating component includes a rotating block 9. A plurality of connecting rods 10 are fixed on the outer wall of the rotating block 9. A rotating ring 11 is fixed on the plurality of connecting rods 10. Three vertical rods 12 are fixed at the bottom end of the rotating ring 11. Two stirring plates 13 are fixed on the inner side side wall of the vertical rod 12. The two stirring plates 13 are respectively located between adjacent two groups of heating components. The stirring plate 13 is set to have a certain curvature. The curvature of the stirring plate 13 is opposite to the curvature of the heating plate 6. The bottom ends of the three vertical rods 12 are fixed with another rotating ring 11. Two limiting grooves 14 are opened on the inner wall of the tank body 2. The rotating ring 11 is slidably connected with the limiting groove 14 on the same side. A heating layer 15 is fixed on the outer wall of the tank body 2. A feed inlet 16 is fixed at the top end of the housing 1. The feed inlet 16 passes through the housing 1 and is communicated with the tank body 2. A discharge outlet 17 is fixed at the bottom end position on the outer wall of the housing 1. The discharge outlet 17 passes through the housing 1 and is communicated with the tank body 2.

[0022] When this fermentation tank is in use, microorganisms are poured into the interior of the tank body 2 from the feed inlet 16. The first motor 3 is started to drive the rotating block 9 to rotate. The rotating block 9 drives the rotating ring 11, the vertical rod 12 and the stirring plate 13 to rotate. At the same time, the heating device 4 is started to heat up the heating column 5 and the heating plate 6, and the heating layer 15 heats the wall of the tank body 2. When the stirring plate 13 rotates, due to the curvature of the stirring plate 13, under the action of force, the microorganisms located in the outer circle will be pushed to the inner circle. After rotation, they contact the heating plate 6 for heating and fermentation. Some pass through the leakage holes 7, and some move along the heating plate 6 under the action of the flow guiding strips 8. Due to the curvature of the heating plate 6, under the action of force, the microorganisms in the inner circle are pushed to the outer circle, and the microorganisms in contact with the inner wall of the tank body 2 are heated by contacting the tank body 2. In this way, rapid, uniform and comprehensive heating of microorganisms is achieved through reciprocation.

[0023] In actual use, it is found that when collecting centrally after fermentation is completed, blockage may occur at the discharge port 17. To avoid the above problems, in this embodiment, an installation block 18 is fixed on the side wall of the outer shell 1 above the discharge port 17. A second motor 19 is installed at the bottom end of the installation block 18. The output end of the second motor 19 passes downward through the discharge port 17 and is fixed with a stirring rod 20. The stirring rod 20 is located inside the discharge port 17.

[0024] In actual use, it is found that when heating and fermenting, some microorganisms will adhere to the inner wall of the tank body 2. To solve the above problems, in this embodiment, a scraping block 21 is fixed on the outer side wall of the vertical rod 12. The scraping block 21 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank body 2.

[0025] In actual use, it is found that the microorganisms after fermentation are completed will accumulate at the bottom of the tank body 2, which is not easy to collect and clean. To avoid the above problems, in this embodiment, the inner bottom wall of the tank body 2 is set as an inclined surface inclined towards the discharge port 17.

[0026] In actual use, it is found that when heating the tank body 2, the heat will be dissipated outward through the outer shell 1. To reduce energy consumption, in this embodiment, the outer shell 1 is made of a material with heat insulation function.

[0027] In actual use, it is found that the fermentation tank may move under the action of external force during operation. To avoid the above problems, in this embodiment, a plurality of support legs 22 are fixed at the bottom end of the outer shell 1. The bottom ends of the support legs 22 are provided with anti-slip patterns.
