The crossbeam A5 is fixed to the columns A1, column B2, column C3, and column D4 by welding. The columns B2 and C3, column C3 and column D4, and A crossbeam B6 is fixedly connected between the column D4 and the column A1 near the top. The crossbeam B6 is fixed to the column A1, the column B2, the column C3, and the column D4 by welding. The column B2 and the column C3 and the crossbeams A5 and B6 connected thereto form a rectangular basket 1. The column C3 and the column D4 and the crossbeams A5 and B6 connected thereto form a rectangular basket 2. The column D4 and the column A1 and the crossbeams A5 and B6 connected thereto form a rectangular basket 3. The interiors of the rectangular baskets 1, 2, and 3 are all fixedly connected with a steel mesh 8, which blocks the three sides of the curved basket frame. To prevent the blocks in the basket from leaking out and falling, the tops of the four crossbeams A5 are fixedly connected with the same bottom plate steel plate 10, which is welded and fixed to the four crossbeams A5. The bottom plate steel plate 10 is placed between the columns A1, B2, C3 and D4. The bottoms of the front and rear crossbeams A5 are fixedly connected with a pair of forklift arm guide tubes 12, which are welded and fixed to the crossbeams A5. The basket device formed by this design is a frame structure with openings at the top and front end. The opening at the front end facilitates the stacking of the finished blocks in the basket, which can be put into the basket by combining with a manipulator. After a basket is full, a forklift or AGV is inserted into the forklift arm guide tube 12 to transport the filled koji basket equipment to the koji library for aging. After the aging of the koji blocks is completed, a forklift or AGV is used to transport the koji blocks in the basket to the crusher feeding port, and the koji blocks in the koji basket are poured from the top opening into the crusher feeding port through the flipping mechanism for crushing. The utility model replaces traditional transportation and stacking by combining the koji basket equipment with a forklift or AGV, and at the same time, crushes and feeds by combining the koji basket flipping device, without manual koji library stacking and crushing and feeding, which greatly reduces manual labor intensity, saves production costs, and improves production efficiency.
