Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary feeding equipment for water-covered fermentation vats, in particular to a feeding funnel suitable for water-covered fermentation vats. Background Art

[0002] Solid-state fermented meat is the main form of traditional fermented meat products in China. The water-covered fermentation vat is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese people during the difficult period of food storage. It is one of the important fermentation container types in the production of solid-state fermented meat and has an irreplaceable position.

[0003] The water-covered fermentation vat mainly consists of seven parts: a vat body, a covered bowl-shaped deep groove, a male and female mouth, an outer edge, an inner edge, a vat cover, and a cover bowl. The feeding port of the water-covered fermentation vat is generally narrow, which is not conducive to the sampling of solid-state fermented meat during industrial production. It has high physical requirements for workers' sampling operations, and improper operation is extremely likely to cause pollution of the covered bowl-shaped deep groove, unable to meet the cleanliness requirements during brine covering, requiring workers to further clean, increasing the work intensity of workers, and also affecting the improvement of production rate.

[0004] The patent with the patent number CN215478419U discloses a feeding funnel structure for pulp hardening, including a feeding funnel body. This feeding funnel structure for pulp hardening further includes a protective ring, a limiting ring, and a positioning convex column. The protective ring and the limiting ring are sleeved on the side of the feeding funnel body near the top. The protective ring is located above the limiting ring. The protective ring is placed on the limiting ring through the support of the limiting ring, and the minimum diameter of the annular channel of the limiting ring is greater than the maximum diameter of the feeding funnel body. The positioning convex columns are evenly distributed on the annular inner side wall of the protective ring, and the protective ring is in contact with the feeding funnel body through the positioning convex columns. The above-mentioned funnel structure is provided with a protective ring at the upper end, which is likely to cause the funnel to be placed unstably. During the feeding process, the funnel is prone to tipping over, affecting the feeding efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model provides a feeding funnel suitable for a water-covered fermentation vat, which solves the problem that the funnel with protection in the prior art is placed unstably.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:

[0007] A feeding funnel suitable for a water-covered fermentation vat includes a material loading hopper and a sampling tube. The bottom of the material loading hopper is communicated with the sampling tube, and an inverted anti-pollution outer shell is detachably connected to the sampling tube. When the feeding funnel is in use, the sampling tube extends into the water-covered fermentation vat, and the anti-pollution outer shell is inverted on the upper side of the bowl-shaped deep groove of the water-covered fermentation vat, effectively avoiding pollution of the bowl-shaped deep groove during feeding and ensuring the cleanliness during brine covering; in addition, the anti-pollution outer shell is in an inverted form, effectively reducing the center of gravity of the feeding funnel, making the feeding funnel more stable when placed on the water-covered fermentation vat, and avoiding tipping over of the feeding funnel during feeding.

[0008] The cross-section of the loading hopper and the anti-fouling shell is circular or square. Specifically, the loading hopper and the anti-fouling shell are both bowl-shaped structures, which is convenient for making the feeding funnel.

[0009] The lower edge size of the anti-fouling shell is larger than the outer edge size of the water-covered fermentation jar, so as to ensure that the anti-fouling shell can completely cover the bowl-shaped deep groove of the water-covered fermentation jar, effectively prevent the material from falling into the bowl-shaped deep groove during feeding, ensure the cleanliness of the bowl-shaped deep groove, and reduce the work intensity of workers.

[0010] The injection tube is sleeved with a first support pad and a second support pad, and the upper edge of the anti-fouling shell is located between the first support pad and the second support pad. The first support pad and the second support pad limit and fix the anti-fouling shell to ensure that the anti-fouling shell is stably installed on the injection tube.

[0011] The first support pad and the second support pad are both silicone rings, which are tightly sleeved on the injection tube. The silicone ring can be tightly clamped on the injection tube by its own elasticity, that is, the silicone ring is easy to install, which facilitates the installation of the first support pad and the second support pad on the injection tube.

[0012] Two positioning grooves are provided on the outer side of the sample injection tube, and the first support pad and the second support pad are respectively engaged with the two positioning grooves. The positioning grooves position the first support pad and the second support pad, ensuring that the first support pad and the second support pad are accurately installed on the sample injection tube, thereby ensuring that the anti-fouling housing is accurately installed on the sample injection tube.

[0013] The side of the second support pad is connected with a pull ring, which fits the inner wall of the anti-fouling shell. The pull ring can pull the silicone ring to move on the injection tube, making it easy to remove the second support pad from the injection tube, thereby facilitating the installation and removal of the anti-fouling shell on the injection tube.

[0014] The lower edge of the anti-fouling housing is provided with an upwardly turned external ring plate. When feeding, the external ring plate can receive the fallen materials to prevent the materials from being directly spilled on the ground or the surface of the water-covered fermentation jar, thereby ensuring that the environment where the water-covered fermentation jar is placed is clean and tidy, and reducing the cleaning workload of workers.

[0015] The size of the upper edge of the outer ring plate is larger than the size of the upper edge of the loading hopper, so as to ensure that the outer ring plate can receive the materials dropped from the loading hopper.

[0016] The diameter of the sample injection tube is smaller than the inlet diameter of the water-covered fermentation jar, so as to ensure that the sample injection tube can be smoothly inserted into the water-covered fermentation jar.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: when the feeding funnel is in use, the sample feeding tube is extended into the water-covered fermentation jar, and the anti-fouling shell is inverted on the upper side of the bowl-shaped deep groove of the water-covered fermentation jar, which effectively avoids contamination of the bowl-shaped deep groove during feeding and ensures the cleanliness of the brine when covered; in addition, the anti-fouling shell adopts an inverted form, which effectively lowers the center of gravity of the feeding funnel, makes the feeding funnel more stably placed on the water-covered fermentation jar, and avoids the feeding funnel from tipping over during feeding.

[0018] When storing the feed funnel, the anti-fouling housing is turned around and installed on the sample feeding tube. At this time, the loading hopper enters the anti-fouling housing, which effectively reduces the space occupied by the feed funnel and facilitates the storage of the feed funnel.

[0019] Through the coordinated use of the loading hopper, the first support pad and the sampling tube, the sampling port area is increased, which makes it convenient to pour the fermented meat raw materials into the water-covered fermentation tank, reduces the operational difficulty and physical exertion of workers in sampling, reduces labor costs, improves the sampling efficiency in solid-state fermented meat production, and avoids unnecessary pollution caused by long-term exposure.

[0020] An external ring plate is used to receive the fallen materials to prevent the materials that have not entered the loading hopper from falling directly onto the ground or the surface of the water-covered fermentation tank, thereby ensuring that the environment in which the water-covered fermentation tank is placed is clean and tidy and reducing the intensity of cleaning work for workers.

[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with 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. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, a feed hopper suitable for a water-covering fermentation vat includes a material-carrying hopper 1 and a sampling tube 4. The bottom of the material-carrying hopper 1 is communicated with the sampling tube 4, and an inverted anti-pollution outer shell 7 is detachably connected to the sampling tube 4. When the feed hopper is in use, the sampling tube 4 extends into the water-covering fermentation vat, and the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is inverted on the upper side of the bowl-shaped deep groove of the water-covering fermentation vat, effectively avoiding pollution of the bowl-shaped deep groove during feeding and ensuring the cleanliness during brine covering. In addition, the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is in an inverted form, effectively reducing the center of gravity of the feed hopper, making the feed hopper more stable when placed on the water-covering fermentation vat, and avoiding the feed hopper from tipping over during feeding.

[0028] In addition, the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is detachably arranged on the sampling tube 4. When the feed hopper is in use, the opening direction of the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is opposite to the opening direction of the material-carrying hopper 1, and the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is inverted on the water-covering fermentation vat. When the feed hopper is stored, the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is removed from the sampling tube 4, and the direction of the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is reversed so that the opening of the anti-pollution outer shell 7 faces upward. At this time, the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is installed on the sampling tube 4 again, and at this time the material-carrying hopper 1 enters the anti-pollution outer shell 7, effectively reducing the occupied space of the feed hopper and facilitating the storage of the feed hopper.

[0029] Furthermore, the cross-sections of the material-carrying hopper 1 and the anti-pollution outer shell 7 are circular or square. In this embodiment, the cross-sections of the material-carrying hopper 1 and the anti-pollution outer shell 7 are both circular, and the material-carrying hopper 1 and the anti-pollution outer shell 7 are both bowl-shaped structures, which is convenient for manufacturing the feed hopper.

[0030] Furthermore, the size of the lower side edge of the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is larger than the outer edge size of the water-covering fermentation vat. Specifically, the diameter of the opening position of the anti-pollution outer shell 7 is 10 - 15 cm larger than the diameter of the outer edge of the water-covering fermentation vat, ensuring that the anti-pollution outer shell 7 can completely cover the bowl-shaped deep groove of the water-covering fermentation vat, effectively avoiding the material from falling into the bowl-shaped deep groove during feeding, ensuring the cleanliness of the bowl-shaped deep groove, and reducing the working intensity of workers.

[0031] Embodiment 2, based on embodiment 1, a feeding funnel suitable for a water-covered fermentation jar, wherein a first support pad 2 and a second support pad 3 are sleeved on a sample injection tube 4, and an upper edge of an anti-fouling housing 7 is located between the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3. The first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 limit and fix the anti-fouling housing 7 to ensure that the anti-fouling housing 7 is stably installed on the sample injection tube.

[0032] Further, the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 are both silicone rings, which are tightly sleeved on the injection tube 4. The silicone ring can be tightly clamped on the injection tube 4 by its own elasticity, that is, the silicone ring is easy to install, which facilitates the installation of the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 on the injection tube 4.

[0033] Furthermore, two positioning grooves are provided on the outer side of the sample injection tube 4, and the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 are respectively engaged with the two positioning grooves. The positioning grooves position the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3, ensuring that the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 are accurately installed on the sample injection tube 4, thereby ensuring that the anti-fouling housing 7 is accurately installed on the sample injection tube; the spacing between the two positioning grooves is equal to the wall thickness of the anti-fouling housing 7, so that the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3 fix the anti-fouling housing 7 stably, avoiding the anti-fouling housing 7 from shaking between the first support pad 2 and the second support pad 3, and avoiding affecting the stability of the feeding funnel.

[0034] Furthermore, a pull ring is connected to the side of the second support pad 3, and the pull ring is fitted with the inner wall of the anti-fouling shell 7. The pull ring is connected to the silicone ring in one piece, and the operator can pull the silicone ring out of the positioning groove on the injection tube 4 through the pull ring, and move the silicone ring on the injection tube 4, so as to facilitate the removal of the second support pad 3 from the injection tube 4, and then facilitate the installation and removal of the anti-fouling shell 7 on the injection tube 4.

[0035] Embodiment 3, based on embodiment 1, a feeding funnel suitable for a water-covered fermentation jar is provided with an upturned external ring plate 5 at the lower edge of the anti-fouling shell 7. When feeding, the external ring plate 5 can receive the fallen materials to prevent the materials from being directly spilled on the ground or the surface of the water-covered fermentation jar, thereby ensuring that the environment where the water-covered fermentation jar is placed is clean and tidy, and reducing the intensity of workers' cleaning work.

[0036] Furthermore, the upper edge size of the outer ring plate 5 is larger than the upper edge size of the loading hopper 1. It is ensured that the outer ring plate 5 can extend out of the loading hopper 1, and when the material falls from the loading hopper 1, it will fall into the outer ring plate 5, ensuring that the outer ring plate can receive the material falling from the loading hopper.

[0037] Furthermore, the diameter of the sample inlet tube 4 is smaller than the diameter of the inlet of the water-covered fermentation vat. In this embodiment, the sample inlet tube 4 is a straight tube, and the diameter of the sample inlet tube 4 is 2-4 cm smaller than the diameter of the inlet of the water-covered fermentation vat. When installing and using the feed funnel, it is ensured that the sample inlet tube 4 can be smoothly inserted into the water-covered fermentation vat.

[0038] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
