[0002] A fermentation tank, as the name implies, is a closed container designed specifically for the microbial fermentation process. Its basic principle is to provide a suitable environment, including temperature, pH value, dissolved oxygen concentration, etc., to support the growth and metabolic activities of specific microorganisms. During the fermentation process, microorganisms decompose raw materials (such as sugars) to produce various metabolites, such as alcohol, lactic acid, acetic acid, enzymes, vitamins, etc. These metabolites are important components of many foods, beverages, and industrial raw materials. In existing fermentations, materials are directly placed in the tank body and left to ferment statically, which takes a long time. During the fermentation process, unpleasant gases are generated. The existing feed inlets of fermentation tanks are directly clamped by a single-layer cover plate. Due to the wear of the cover plate during long-term use, it is easy to have poor sealing, resulting in gas leakage. Since the cover plate is hinged to the feed hopper, it takes a long time to replace the cover plate, and it is not convenient to disassemble and replace. Summary of the Utility Model
