Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of craft beer production, in particular to a saccharification pot used for craft beer production. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of craft beer, saccharification is a crucial step. The saccharification process converts the starch in the malt into fermentable sugar for use in the subsequent fermentation process. In order to achieve this process, the saccharification pot is one of the core equipment on the craft beer production line. In order to meet the production needs of craft beer, the design of the saccharification pot is also constantly improving. For example, some advanced saccharification pots are equipped with advanced control systems that can accurately monitor and adjust temperature, pH value and other key parameters to ensure the quality and efficiency of saccharification. At the same time, in order to adapt to different malts and brewing processes, the combination of saccharification pots is also diversified.

[0003] For example, patent CN221662861U discloses a saccharification pot for craft beer production, which relates to the technical field of saccharification pots and includes a body structure, on the outer wall of which a cooling mechanism is fixedly installed.

[0004] During the use of the above-mentioned saccharification pot, although the multiple nozzles it uses can play a certain cleaning role on the inner wall of the pot, it is still difficult to remove stubborn stains and impurities with signs of scaling on the inner wall, so the sanitary quality inside the saccharification pot still needs to be improved. Therefore, this application provides a saccharification pot for craft beer production to meet the needs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a saccharification pot for craft beer production to solve the problem that although the multiple nozzles used in the existing saccharification pot can clean the inner wall of the pot to a certain extent, it is still difficult to remove stubborn stains and impurities with signs of scaling on the inner wall, so the sanitary quality of the interior of the saccharification pot still needs to be improved.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A saccharification pot for craft beer production comprises a main body, an upper mounting frame fixedly provided above the main body, and cleaning mechanisms installed inside and outside the main body, a cleaning mechanism jointly installed inside and outside the upper mounting frame, the cleaning mechanism comprising a first motor, and the first motor fixedly mounted in the upper middle portion of the upper mounting frame, an output end of the first motor being connected to a transmission rod, and connecting frames fixedly provided on the upper and lower sides of one side of the transmission rod, and a displacement assembly installed on the inner sides of the two connecting frames, the displacement assembly comprising a connecting frame, and a cleaning assembly installed in the middle portion of the connecting frame.

[0008] Optionally, the displacement assembly includes a transmission screw, and the transmission screw is installed inside one of the connecting frames, a second motor is installed at one end of the transmission screw, and a screw sleeve is screwed on one side of the transmission screw, a connecting frame is fixed below the screw sleeve, and a guide sleeve is fixed below the connecting frame, and a guide rod is fixed inside the other connecting frame.

[0009] Optionally, both ends of the mounting frame are connected to the screw sleeve and the guide sleeve respectively.

[0010] Optionally, the guide rod is connected to a guide sleeve fixed below the connecting frame in a movable guiding manner.

[0011] Optionally, the cleaning assembly includes a protective frame, and the protective frame is fixed above the middle part of the connecting frame. A third motor is installed inside the protective frame, and the output end of the third motor is connected to a rotating rod. Stirring plates are fixed on both sides of the rotating rod, and rubber bristles are provided on the edges of the two stirring plates.

[0012] Optionally, the stirring plates are symmetrically fixed along the vertical center axis of the rotating rod.

[0013] Optionally, the rubber bristles are evenly distributed and fixed on the edges of the stirring plate.

[0014] Optionally, the cleaning mechanism includes an annular spray frame, and the annular spray frame is fixed on the upper inner part of the upper mounting frame, a plurality of nozzles are provided on the peripheral bottom portion of the annular spray frame, and one port of the annular spray frame is connected to a first connecting pipe, the end of the first connecting pipe is connected to a water pump, and the other port of the water pump is connected to a second connecting pipe, the end of the second connecting pipe is connected to a water tank, and a transparent identification window is provided on one side of the water tank.

[0015] Optionally, the spray heads are distributed equidistantly along the peripheral bottom of the annular spray rack.

[0016] Optionally, the first connecting pipe, the annular spray rack and the plurality of spray heads are adjacent to each other.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0018] In the above scheme, by setting up a cleaning mechanism, the staff starts the second motor to rotate the transmission screw. At this moment, the screw sleeve acting on the screw will carry the connecting frame and the cleaning component in the middle thereof to cooperate with the guide sleeve and the guide rod for lateral displacement until the rubber bristles in the cleaning component can contact the inner wall of the pot. In this state, the staff can start the third motor to rotate the rotating rod. At this time, the stirring plates on both sides of the rotating rod and the rubber bristles on the edge thereof can achieve the cleaning operation of the inner wall. Under the premise of driving the rotation of the lower transmission rod by the first motor, the entire inner wall of the pot can be continuously cleaned, thereby removing stubborn stains and impurities that show signs of scaling on the inner wall. It is worth mentioning that the presence of the displacement component can drive the cleaning component to move as a whole to a eccentric position before the craft beer production materials need to be stirred in the pot body. At this moment, the auxiliary stirring of the material can be achieved by rotating the transmission rod in conjunction with the rotating stirring plates, which is highly practical.

[0019] By setting up a cleaning mechanism, when the saccharification pot equipment body completes the saccharification operation, the staff can discharge the output material from the material outlet. At this time, the staff starts the water pump, and under the guidance of the second connecting pipe and the first connecting pipe, the water in the water tank can be introduced into the annular spray rack and sprayed out from multiple separate nozzles, so as to achieve better wetting and cleaning of the inner wall of the saccharification pot body.

[0035] The working principle of the technical solution provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0036] When the saccharification pot equipment body 1 completes the saccharification operation, the staff can discharge the output material from the material outlet. At this time, the staff starts the water pump 44. Under the guidance of the second connecting pipe 45 and the first connecting pipe 43, the water in the water tank 46 can be introduced into the annular spray rack 41 and sprayed from multiple separate nozzles 42, so as to achieve a better wetting and cleaning operation on the inner wall of the saccharification pot body 1.
