[0002] In the final cleaning process of beer brewing, brewing water is usually used to rinse the fermented malt to maintain the purity of the brewing process and avoid affecting the flavor of the beer. To reduce impurities in the brewing water, it is usually filtered. However, filtration can remove suspended solids and large particle microorganisms in the water, but may not be able to completely remove all microorganisms. These microorganisms may produce substances such as acids, vinegar, and strange smells during the fermentation process, which will affect the wine quality and hygiene standards.

[0039] The names of the messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of this disclosure are only for illustrative purposes and are not used to limit the scope of these messages or information.

[0040] Refer to Figures 1 - 4 , a sterile water preparation device for brewing, including a water storage tank 1, a metering and adding component 2, a concentration detection component 3, a storage tank 4 and a liquid circulation component 5. A pipeline 11 is connected to the water storage tank 1 and is connected to an external water pump through the pipeline 11. The metering and adding component 2 is located between the water storage tank 1 and the storage tank 4. The metering and adding component 2 has a feeding end and a discharging end. The feeding end is connected to the storage tank 4 through a connecting pipe, and the discharging end is communicated with the pipeline 11 through a connecting tank. The metering and adding component 2 is a metering and adding pump, which is a device for accurately controlling and transporting fluid drugs or chemical reagents, and can transport a certain amount of sterilizing and disinfecting gas according to the proportion of the liquid in the water storage tank 1 to ensure the preparation of sterile water;

[0041] The concentration detection component 3 is arranged at the connection of the discharging end and the pipeline 11. The concentration detection component 3 is a sodium hypochlorite concentration detection device, and by detecting the concentration of sodium hypochlorite, the concentration can be adjusted according to the volume of the liquid in the water storage tank 1;

[0042] The liquid circulation component 5 is arranged on one side of the water storage tank 1. An outlet interface 12 and an inlet interface 13 are arranged on the water storage tank 1, and the outlet interface 12 and the inlet interface 13 are connected to the liquid circulation component 5 through a connecting water pipe;

[0043] The storage tank 4 is filled with a sterilizing and disinfecting gas, and the sterilizing and disinfecting gas is sodium hypochlorite. Sodium hypochlorite is a strong oxidant, and when dissolved in water, it will generate hypochlorous acid, which can oxidize the cell membranes, proteins and nucleic acids of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, and destroy their vital activities, thereby achieving the effect of sterilization.

[0044] Based on the above structure, the filtered brewing water is transported from the pipeline 11 to the water storage tank 1 by an external water pump. Since the storage tank 4 storing the sterilizing and disinfecting gas is connected to the metering and adding component 2, and the other end of the metering and adding component 2 is communicated with the pipeline 11, by calculating the volume of the liquid transported to the water storage tank 1, the metering and adding component 2 transports a certain proportion of the sterilizing and disinfecting gas in the storage tank 4 to the water storage tank 1 through the pipeline 11, and the concentration detection component 3 detects the transported concentration in real time to avoid the situation of incomplete sterilization due to insufficient concentration. Through the mixing of the brewing water and the sterilizing and disinfecting gas in the water storage tank 1, the microorganisms in the brewing water are eliminated, thus completing the preparation of sterile water. Moreover, since a liquid circulation component 5 is arranged on one side of the water storage tank 1, by connecting the liquid circulation component 5 to the water outlet interface 12 and the water inlet interface 13 in the water storage tank 1, the liquid in the water storage tank 1 can be circulated, so that it can be fully mixed. Through the cooperation of the metering and adding component 2 and the concentration detection component 3, the preparation of sterile water can be completed, solving the problem that the microorganisms in the existing conventional brewing water cannot be completely eliminated by filtration.

[0045] In one implementation, referring to Figures 1 - 3 , it further includes a flow switch component 6. The flow switch component 6 is a device for monitoring and controlling the fluid flow rate. It controls the operation of the system by detecting the flow velocity or volume flow rate of the fluid. The flow switch component 6 is arranged on the pipeline 11, and the flow switch component 6 is located between the water storage tank 1 and the metering and adding component 2. By linking the flow switch component 6 with the metering and adding component 2, when the external water pump replenishes water to the water storage tank 1 through the pipeline 11, the flow switch component 6 is started by the flow velocity in the pipeline 11, and the flow start-stop signal of the flow switch component 6 is transmitted to the metering and adding component 2 as the power start-stop signal for controlling the metering and adding component 2, thus achieving the automatic preparation effect of sterile water and improving the operation efficiency.

[0046] In one implementation, referring to Figures 2 - 5 , it further includes a stirring component 7. The stirring component 7 includes a bearing support seat 71, a stirring part 72 and a handle part 73;

[0047] Two sets of symmetrically distributed bearing plates 14 are provided on the inner wall of the storage tank 4. The bearing support seats 71 are arranged on the bearing plates 14, and the bearing plates 14 play a supporting role. The stirring member 72 is rotatably arranged on the two bearing support seats 71. One end of the stirring member 72 passes through the storage tank 4 and extends to the outside of the storage tank 4 and is connected to the handle part 73. Thus, when the handle part 73 rotates, the stirring member 72 rotates synchronously. The stirring member 72 includes a support rod 721 and stirring rods 722. The support rod 721 is rotatably arranged between the two bearing support seats 71, and the bearing support seats 71 can support the support rod 721 when it rotates. The stirring rods 722 are arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the support rod 721. There are several stirring rods 722 and they are evenly distributed along the length direction of the support rod 721. When an operator rotates the handle part 73 outside the water storage tank 1, the handle part 73 can drive the support rod 721 to rotate. Since the stirring rods 722 are arranged on the support rod 721, when the support rod 721 rotates, the stirring rods 722 rotate synchronously. During the rotation process, the flow of the liquid in the water storage tank 1 can be accelerated, enabling the liquids to be quickly mixed, and improving the preparation speed of sterile water.

[0048] In one implementation, referring to Figures 1 - 4 , a water outlet pipe 15 is provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 1, and brackets 16 are arranged around the water storage tank 1. Through the brackets 16, a drainage area is formed between the bottom of the water storage tank 1 and the ground. The arrangement of the brackets 16 can improve the stability of the water storage tank 1 when placed on the ground, and through the support of the brackets 16, a certain distance can be generated between the water storage tank 1 and the ground, facilitating the installation of external pipelines on the water outlet pipe 15.

[0049] In one implementation, referring to Figures 1 - 3 , the liquid circulation component 5 is a peristaltic pump, which is a device commonly used for precisely controlling fluid transportation. It transports liquids through a closed spiral channel, which ensures the cleanliness and leak - free of the liquid during transportation. When the liquid in the water storage tank 1 is added with sterilizing and disinfecting gas, the sterile liquid in the water storage tank 1 can be evenly mixed by the back - and - forth transportation of the liquid, improving the quality of sterile water.
