[0071] A lactic acid bacteria fermentation tank consists of a feed hopper for feeding raw materials and other additives into the tank, the tank body, a stirring system, and a temperature control system. In practice, workers typically use a spoon or a feeding tube to add the lactic acid bacteria raw materials into the tank body. Because the tank body contains liquid, the lactic acid bacteria feed hopper will have a certain humidity, and the lactic acid bacteria raw material (powder) may clump, causing the lactic acid bacteria raw material to clog at the feed hopper outlet, thus affecting production efficiency.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a fermentation device 100 with anti-blocking feed port, including a tank body 60, and the tank body 60 is provided with a feed component 10 for inputting raw materials and other additives into the tank body, and the feed component 10 is provided with a vibration component for vibrating the feed.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the lactic acid bacteria raw material is put into the feed component 10 through the feed port and enters the tank body 60 through the screening hole 202, if the lactic acid bacteria raw material is agglomerated or blocked, most of the material is blocked on the sieve plate by the screening hole. At this time, the material will generate a certain downward pressure, thereby driving the positioning column 201 set in the through hole 208 on the clamp 204 to move downward, compressing the spring 207.

[0074] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the tank body 60 includes a double-layer tank body composed of an outer tank body 601 and an inner tank body 602, and a screen 80 is installed in the inner tank body 602 by a fixed connection method such as fastening screws.

[0075] A drive system 501 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the tank body 60 by means of a fixing connection such as fastening screws. The drive system 501 is preferably a rotary motor. The driving end of the drive system is connected to a gear transmission 502, and the driven gear shaft of the gear transmission 502 passes through the tank body 60 and extends into the tank body 60. The driven gear shaft extending into the tank body 60 is connected to a rotating shaft 701 via a bearing assembly, and an agitator 702 is mounted on the rotating shaft 701. The gear transmission is driven by the drive system to rotate, and the gear transmission drives the rotating shaft 701 to rotate, thereby driving the agitator 702 to rotate.

[0076] Furthermore, the agitator 702 includes a connecting disk 7021, and the connecting disk 7021 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 701 by a fixed connection, and at least one set of connecting rods 7022 is provided on the connecting disk 7021, and the connecting rods 7022 and the connecting disk 7021 are detachably connected.

[0077] Furthermore, a counterweight 7024 is connected to the connecting rod 7022, and a hammer end 7024 is fixedly installed on the counterweight 7024 by a fastening screw, and the hammer end 7024 is semicircular and made of rubber material.

[0078] In this embodiment, by starting the drive system, the drive system is used to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and then drive the connecting rod to rotate. When the connecting rod rotates, a certain centrifugal force is generated, which can effectively stir the mixture inside the tank body. When the connecting rod rotates, the counterweight block and the hammering end are driven to rotate. At this time, the hammering end made of rubber material is used to knock the inner wall of the tank body. At this time, the tank body generates a certain vibration. The vibration force can effectively prevent the material from gathering on the sieve plate and clogging, reducing the probability of material agglomeration, thereby greatly improving production efficiency.

[0079] In actual application, in order to further increase the material feeding speed and reduce the probability of blockage. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the vibration assembly includes a connecting member 206, and the connecting member 206 is disposed in the feeding assembly 10, and the connecting member 206 and the feeding assembly 10 are integrated;

[0080] The vibration assembly further includes a sieve plate 203 provided with screening holes 202 , and the sieve plate 203 is engaged in the connecting member 206 .

[0081] Furthermore, a slot 205 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting member 206;

[0082] The outer wall of the sieve plate 203 is provided with a clamping member 204, and the clamping member 204 is made of an elastic material, preferably rubber, and the clamping member 204 is engaged in the clamping groove 205 for clamping connection. The connection between the sieve plate 203 and the feeding assembly 10 is achieved by the engagement of the clamping member 204 and the clamping groove 205.

[0083] Furthermore, corresponding through holes 208 are provided on the card member 204 inserted into the card slot 205 and the connecting member 206, and a positioning column 201 is fixedly installed in the through hole 208 provided on the card member 204, a fastening base 2011 is welded on the positioning column 201, and the fastening base passes through the through hole 208 provided on the card member 204 and extends into the positioning hole provided in the connecting member 206.

[0084] Furthermore, a spring 207 is fixedly installed in the positioning hole of the connecting member 206 that penetrates the through hole, and the top end of the spring conflicts with the fastening base 2011 that is screwed into the through hole.

[0085] In this embodiment, when the lactic acid bacteria raw material is put into the feed component 10 through the feed port and enters the tank body 60 through the screening hole 202, if the lactic acid bacteria raw material is agglomerated or blocked, most of the material is blocked on the sieve plate by the screening hole. At this time, the material will generate a certain downward pressure, thereby driving the positioning column 201 set in the through hole 208 on the clamp 204 to move downward, compressing the spring 207.

[0086] When the driving shaft rotates, it drives the connecting rod to rotate. When the connecting rod rotates, it will generate a certain centrifugal force, which can effectively stir the mixture inside the tank. When the connecting rod rotates, it drives the counterweight block and the hammering end to rotate. At this time, the hammering end made of rubber material is used to knock the inner wall of the tank. At this time, the tank produces a certain vibration. The vibration force can make the material on the sieve plate pass through the screening hole into the tank. At this time, the weight of the material on the sieve plate is reduced, and the force applied to the spring is reduced or disappears. At this time, the spring will release the stored elastic potential energy, causing the spring to rebound. The rebound force of the spring is used to input the material on the sieve plate into the tank below, thereby preventing the material from gathering at the outlet end of the feed component and improving production efficiency.

[0087] See also Figure 1As shown, at least one group of delivery pipes 404 is provided on the tank body 60, and one end of the delivery pipe 404 is inserted into the tank body 60, and the other end of the delivery pipe 404 is connected to the main pipe 403, and a water inlet 401 is provided on the main pipe 403, which is connected to the external liquid delivery equipment through the water inlet, and a connecting pipe 402 is provided on the main pipe near the water inlet, and the connecting pipe passes through the tank body and extends into the tank body.

[0088] Furthermore, a control valve 405 is provided on the delivery pipe 404 .

[0089] The use process and working principle of this utility model:

[0090] When the present invention is in use, when the material enters the feed component 10 through the inlet end of the feed component, the lumped or large-particle material is screened by the sieve plate arranged in the feed component to prevent it from being blocked at the outlet end of the feed component, and by starting the drive system, the drive system is used to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft is used to drive the connecting rod to rotate. When the connecting rod rotates, a certain centrifugal force is generated, which can effectively stir the mixture inside the tank body, and when the connecting rod rotates, the counterweight block and the hammering end are driven to rotate. At this time, the hammering end made of rubber material is used to knock the inner wall of the tank body, and the tank body generates a certain vibration. The vibration force can be used to make the material on the sieve plate enter the tank body through the screening hole. At this time, the weight of the material on the sieve plate is reduced, and the force applied to the spring is reduced or disappears. At this time, the spring will release the stored elastic potential energy, causing the spring to rebound, and the rebound force of the spring is used to input the material on the sieve plate into the tank body below, thereby preventing the material from gathering at the outlet end of the feed component and improving production efficiency.

[0091] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to be limiting.
