Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of koji processing, in particular to a koji pill drying device. Background Art
[0002] If conidia of Aspergillus are transferred into strongly steamed white rice and then kept warm, hyphae will grow luxuriantly on the rice grains. This is the koji, which is the essence of wine making and plays a decisive role in the concentration and aroma of the wine.
[0003] During the processing of koji, it is usually rolled into round balls and then dried after fermentation. Currently, the koji balls are usually dried directly and evenly on a winnowing basket. However, this method of drying cannot dry the bottom of the koji balls where they are in contact with the winnowing basket, which will cause uneven drying of the balls, thus affecting the quality of subsequent winemaking. Therefore, further improvements can be made. Utility Model Content

[0005] As an optimization, the outer side of the reflective board has an outer frame, and the outer sides of the drying board and the outer frame are provided with sockets. The end of the bolt is fixedly installed with a positioning column, and the positioning column is inserted into the inside of the socket. By screwing the bolt into the threaded hole, the positioning column will be inserted into the socket, which will play a role in limiting the installation of the drying board and the reflective board.
[0006] As an optimization, a number of through holes are evenly opened in the internal array of the drying board, and the drying board forms a hollow structure through the through holes, which facilitates the even placement of the koji balls for drying, and facilitates the ventilation and light exposure of the koji balls.
[0007] As an optimization, the drying board is made of a transparent acrylic board.
[0008] As an optimization, the movable wheel includes a mounting tube fixedly mounted on the bottom side of the base, a sliding column is movably inserted inside the mounting tube, the bottom of the sliding column is rotatably connected to a support, and the bottom of the support is rotatably connected to a roller, which rolls on the ground through the roller, making it convenient to move the drying device.
[0009] As an optimization, a buffer spring is fixedly installed inside the top of the mounting tube, and the buffer spring is fixedly installed on the top of the limit bar. The buffer spring plays a buffering role to prevent the dried koji balls from falling due to bumps and vibrations when the drying device is moved.
[0010] As an optimization, a limit strip is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting tube, and a guide groove is provided on the outer side of the sliding column corresponding to the limit strip, and the limit strip is slidably inserted in the guide groove. By sliding the limit strip inside the guide groove, it will play a role of limiting and guiding the sliding column.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0012] 1. The koji pill drying device can insert the positioning column into the socket by screwing the bolt into the threaded hole, which makes it convenient to install the drying board and the reflective plate. The koji pills can then be evenly placed through the through hole for drying, and the reflective plate below will reflect the bottom of the koji pills, thereby increasing the light intensity and improving the drying efficiency.
[0013] 2. The koji pill drying device can push the drying rack to move as a whole by rolling along the ground through the rollers provided at the bottom of the base, so the drying position can be adjusted according to the changes in sunlight, further improving the drying efficiency. The buffer spring can play a buffering role during movement, thereby preventing the koji pills from falling due to bumps and shaking when moving the drying device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
