[0002] Grain moistening is one of the key steps in the liquor brewing process. It mainly refers to evenly adding an appropriate amount of water to the brewing raw materials before steaming and cooking, so that the starch granules in the raw materials can fully absorb water and expand, preparing for subsequent steaming, gelatinization and saccharification and fermentation.
[0003] Taking sorghum winemaking as an example, the sorghum is usually broken into 6 to 8 petals before moistening to speed up the absorption of water and facilitate the subsequent steaming, gelatinization and saccharification and fermentation.
[0004] The raw materials for brewing wine are mostly various grains. The grains will continue to generate heat in the process of absorbing water, and the heat of the grains accumulated at the bottom cannot be dissipated, causing the temperature to rise. In order to ensure that the raw materials for brewing wine will not deteriorate due to overheating during the moistening of the grains, it is necessary to control their temperature by stirring and other methods.
[0005] In the existing technology, the brewing raw materials in the grain moistening machine absorb water through natural absorption, and the temperature of the brewing raw materials is controlled by a stirring device. The water absorption process takes a long time, resulting in a long heating time, so it takes a longer time to control the temperature of the brewing raw materials, and the grain moistening efficiency is low.

[0032] Combine Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a grain moistening machine for liquor brewing, which includes a rice mill 1, a sprayer 2 and a stirrer 3.
[0033] Combine Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the rice milling machine 1 includes a shell 11 and a rice milling device 12. The shell 11 is connected from top to bottom, and the rice milling device 12 is fixedly assembled in the shell 11; the sprayer 2 is located above the rice milling device 12 and is fixedly assembled in the shell 11. The water outlet of the sprayer 2 faces the rice milling device 12; the inlet of the turning machine 3 is connected to the lower end of the shell 11, and constant temperature gas is introduced into the turning machine 3.
[0034] In this embodiment, the sprayer 2 adds water before the brewing raw materials enter the rice milling machine 1. The rice milling machine 1 provides pressure to help the brewing raw materials absorb water quickly. At the same time, the rice milling machine 1 can control the particle size of the brewing raw materials to ensure the surface area of the brewing raw materials for absorbing water. The temperature is then quickly controlled by the stirring machine 3 through which constant temperature gas is introduced. The water absorption time is short, the heating time is short, and the grain moistening efficiency is higher.
[0035] In this embodiment, the brewing raw materials do not need to be crushed in advance, and the streamlined process improves the grain moistening efficiency; at the same time, crushing after adding water can reduce the dust generated during the crushing process, which is beneficial to environmental protection.
[0036] In some embodiments, combined Figure 3 As shown, the rice milling device 12 includes two rice milling rollers 121. The two rice milling rollers 121 are horizontally distributed and are rotatably assembled in the housing 11. The two rice milling rollers 121 are driven by a motor to rotate in opposite directions. A gap is left between the two rice milling rollers 121. Brewing raw materials whose size exceeds the gap will be crushed when passing through. At the same time, the two rice milling rollers 121 rotate under the drive of the motor to realize the crushing process.
[0037] In some embodiments, combined Figure 3 As shown, the rice milling device 12 also includes a discharge baffle 122, and the number of the discharge baffles 122 is 2. The two discharge baffles 122 are respectively located above the two rice milling rollers 121. The two discharge baffles 122 are inclined upward at the far ends and are integrally connected to the shell 11. The discharge baffle 122 is a device that assists the rice milling roller 121 in working. Because the rice milling roller 121 rotates unidirectionally to perform rice milling work, the rice milling work is mainly carried out at the position between the two rice milling rollers 121. The rice milling effect can be ensured by controlling the brewing raw materials to fall to the position of the rice milling roller 121 through the discharge baffle 122.
[0038] In some embodiments, combined Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the stirring machine 3 includes a material storage barrel 31 and a stirring device 32. The material storage barrel 31 is connected to the lower end of the shell 11. The stirring device 32 is fixedly assembled in the material storage barrel 31. The material storage barrel 31 collects the brewing raw materials that have been crushed with water, and stirs them through the stirring device 32 installed inside to help dissipate internal heat.
[0039] In some embodiments, combined Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the lower end of the shell 11 is bent 45 degrees, and the inlet of the stirring machine 3 is vertically opened on the cylindrical surface of the storage barrel 31. The storage barrel 31 is tilted 45 degrees and rotated to be connected to the upper end of the shell 11. The storage barrel 31 can be turned over to help the stirring device 32 on the back to stir the brewing raw materials higher. At the same time, the brewing raw materials can enter the storage barrel 31 normally through the inlet of the stirring machine 3.
[0040] In some embodiments, combined Figure 5As shown, the grain moistening machine for liquor brewing also includes a support column 4, and the number of the support columns 4 is two. The connection end of the first support column 4 is fixedly connected to the shell 11, and the connection end of the second support column 4 is opposite to the lower end of the shell 11 bent 45 degrees. The second support column 4 is rotated from the other side to connect to the storage barrel 31. The above-mentioned rice milling machine 1, sprayer 2 and turning machine 3 can be fixedly installed in the specified position through the support column. The design of the second support column 4 ensures the support effect under the premise of satisfying the flipping action of the storage barrel 31.
[0041] In some embodiments, combined Figure 4 As shown, the stirring device 32 includes a fixed bracket, a rotating shaft and a stirring rod. The fixed bracket is fixedly assembled in the storage barrel 31, the rotating shaft is rotatably assembled on the fixed bracket, the stirring rod is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, the stirring rods are evenly distributed on the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is fixed by the fixed bracket, and the stirring rod stirs the internal brewing raw materials under the drive of the rotating shaft; in conjunction with the flipping of the storage barrel 31, the internal brewing raw materials repeatedly pass through the stirring device 32 during the flipping process of the storage barrel 31, and the stirring rod fully stirs them during this process.
[0042] In some embodiments, combined Figure 4 As shown, there are two fixed brackets, and both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the fixed brackets. The rotating shaft fixed by two fixed brackets has stronger impact resistance. The rotating shaft is located in the center of the storage barrel 31, so that the brewing raw materials are stirred as soon as they enter the storage barrel 31. The fixed brackets are away from the end face of the storage barrel 31, and there is sufficient space at both ends inside the storage barrel 31 to accommodate the brewing raw materials.
[0043] In some embodiments, combined Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the grain moistening machine for liquor brewing further includes a vibration plate 51, which is tilted above the rice milling device 12. The vibration plate 51 is fixedly connected to the housing 11 by a spring. A vibration generator is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the vibration plate 51. The water outlet of the sprinkler 2 faces the vibration plate 51. The function of the vibration plate 51 is to disperse and flatten the dry brewing raw materials, reduce their accumulation thickness, and facilitate the sprinkler 2 to spray water more fully and evenly.
[0044] In some embodiments, combined Figure 2 As shown, a lower hopper 52 is provided above the vibration plate 51. The lower hopper 52 and the shell 11 are integrally formed. The outlet of the lower hopper 52 is inclined upward toward the vibration plate 51. In order to ensure the working effect of the vibration plate 51, it is necessary to control the position where the brewing raw materials fall on the vibration plate 51. The speed and position of the brewing raw materials entering can be controlled through the lower hopper 52.
[0045] Working process: The brewing raw materials first pass through the lower hopper 52 and fall onto the vibration plate 51. The vibration plate 51 vibrates to disperse and thin the brewing raw materials above it. Then the sprinkler 2 is started to sprinkle water on the brewing raw materials. After the brewing raw materials are mixed with water, they are crushed by the rice milling device 12 and then enter the stirring machine 3. The storage barrel 31 is turned over so that the brewing raw materials repeatedly pass through the stirring device 32 to be stirred. Under the action of the constant temperature gas introduced into the storage barrel 31, the temperature of the brewing raw materials is quickly controlled.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
