Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of koji making equipment, in particular to a double-ridge convoluted koji room structure. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the most common brewing process involves using grains such as rice, sorghum, and wheat as raw materials, fermenting and distilling them to produce a high-purity base liquor. This base liquor is then blended with a certain proportion of water to produce the finished liquor sold on the market. However, dilution of the base liquor with water significantly reduces the taste of the finished liquor.

[0003] Qu (koji) is a saccharifying fermentation agent and the driving force of winemaking fermentation. The quality of koji directly affects the quality and yield of the wine. Currently, koji rooms are mostly single-story structures, equipped with windows and doors for moisture removal and temperature control. However, due to the single-story structure, the windows and doors in the koji room are directly connected to the outside. Therefore, the outdoor temperature can quickly affect the temperature inside the koji room. Especially in cold winters and hot summers, when the windows and doors are opened to remove moisture and control the temperature, the large temperature difference can cause the temperature inside the koji room to fluctuate rapidly, which has an adverse effect on koji production.

[0004] In addition, due to the difference between the environment outside the qu room and the environment inside the qu room, the qu room will have its own unique microbial flora environment. However, in different seasons and needs, it is sometimes necessary for the flora in the qu room to symbiotically exchange ventilation with the microbial flora in the outdoor environment to meet the special flora environment and fresh ambient gas, etc. However, if the qu room is in direct contact with the environment outside the qu room, there is no buffer stage, which sometimes has an adverse effect on qu making.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. The following embodiments are merely illustrative and non-restrictive, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials used in this utility model are all conventional commercial products. Unless otherwise specified, the methods used in this utility model are all conventional methods in the field. The quality of each substance used in this utility model is the quality of conventional use. The structures, connections, etc. not described in detail in this utility model are to be understood as conventional technical means in the field.

[0027] A double-ridged convoluted curved room structure, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the curved house structure includes multiple curved houses 2, a curved house outer wall 1, a double-layer roof ridge on the top, and a spiral corridor 3. Multiple curved houses are arranged inside the curved house outer wall, and a spiral corridor is arranged between the curved houses and the curved house outer wall. The double-layer roof ridge on the top is connected to the curved houses and the curved house outer wall.

[0028] The top double-layer roof includes a bottom ridge 11 and a top ridge 13, and the bottom ridge and the top ridge are arranged in parallel; a plurality of curved rooms and the outer walls of the curved rooms are fixedly installed on a foundation (not shown in the figure);

[0029] The qu room is connected in sequence along the horizontal direction and is provided with a plurality of qu rooms, the qu room including a qu room wall 4, a qu room door 5 and a qu room ventilation and temperature control window 6. The qu room wall is a sealed hollow shape with an opening at the top, and one longitudinal side of the qu room wall is movably connected to be provided with a qu room door and a qu room ventilation and temperature control window. The qu room ventilation and temperature control window is provided in the middle and upper part of the qu room wall. The qu room door is convenient for the staff to enter the hollow interior of the qu room, and it is also convenient for the staff to adjust the temperature in the qu room through the qu room door, which is convenient for ventilation in the qu room to facilitate the preparation of wine koji. The setting of the qu room ventilation and temperature control window is also convenient for the staff to adjust the temperature through the qu room ventilation and temperature control window. The temperature in the koji room is convenient for ventilation in the koji room, which is beneficial for the preparation of koji; the hollow top of the koji room wall is connected to a bottom ridge, and a reed curtain (not shown in the figure) is connected to the bottom ridge. The hollow interior of the koji room is sealed by the reed curtain. Since the reed curtain is made of reed, reed has the advantages of good air permeability and moisture resistance, which can improve the quality of koji making, so the reed curtain is adopted; the top ridge is connected to the koji room wall and the outer wall of the koji room above the bottom ridge, and a closed brick and tile (not shown in the figure) is connected to the top ridge to block wind and rain, thereby ensuring the normal and smooth progress of koji making;

[0030] A regulating window 7 is connected to the wall of the koji room between the bottom ridge and the top ridge. The regulating window is arranged above the ventilation and temperature control window of the koji room to indirectly regulate the temperature and humidity in the koji room, making the regulation more gentle and more conducive to the preparation of koji;

[0031] The outer wall of the qu room is arranged at intervals outside multiple qu rooms, and an entrance door 14 is arranged on the outer wall of the qu room to facilitate entering the qu room for related operations. The upper part of the outer wall of the qu room is connected to the bottom ridge and the top ridge, and an outer wall regulating window 9 is connected to the outer wall of the qu room opposite to the ventilation and temperature regulating window and the regulating window of the qu room. The setting of the outer wall regulating window is used to regulate the temperature and humidity in the qu room according to the outdoor temperature and humidity; a spiral corridor is formed between the outer wall of the qu room, the foundation, the qu room and the bottom ridge, and a new microenvironment is formed in the spiral corridor through the qu room, the qu room door and the ventilation and temperature regulating window of the qu room, which interact with the microbial environment in the qu room, which is beneficial to the preparation of wine koji. At the same time, due to the setting of the spiral corridor, the outdoor temperature and humidity will first play a buffering role in the spiral corridor, so that the regulation of the temperature and humidity in the qu room will not be particularly intense, thereby avoiding affecting the preparation of wine koji.

[0032] When the utility model is in use, the required raw materials for koji making are placed in the koji room. Through the arrangement of the lower vents and the revolving corridor, the air circulation inside the koji room is stabilized, and the temperature is kept within a certain stable range. At the same time, the arrangement of the revolving corridor also prevents the microbial flora from being easily affected by the external environment, thereby ensuring the stability of the microbial flora and facilitating the koji making operation. In winter, the ventilation and temperature-regulating windows of the koji room are closed, so that the koji room can insulate the interior of the room and ensure temperature stability. If the temperature is low, the external wall regulating windows are closed. Due to the arrangement of the double-layer roof and double-sided walls, the air is not easily exchanged with the outside world, and the temperature is increased, so that it is maintained at an appropriate temperature. In summer, the ventilation and temperature-regulating windows of the koji room are opened to maintain temperature stability. If the temperature is high, the external wall regulating windows and the koji room door are opened to improve ventilation efficiency, reduce temperature, and maintain it at an appropriate temperature. The lower vents can provide the ventilation required for normal use. Since the roofs of each curved room are interconnected, the humidity and temperature inside each curved room can be balanced. By setting the regulating windows, when the temperature and humidity are high, the regulating windows can be opened in conjunction with the exterior wall regulating windows and ventilation and temperature regulating windows to maintain stable temperature and humidity.

[0033] In this embodiment, a plurality of lower vents 8 of the curved room wall are connected and arranged on the bottom of the other longitudinal side of the curved room wall. The lower vents of the curved room wall can be used to fine-tune the temperature and humidity in the curved room according to actual needs, so that the wind and air in the curved room circulate upward from the lower vents of the curved room wall and then flow out through the ventilation and temperature control windows of the curved room, so that the adjustment of the temperature and humidity in the curved room is more uniform.

[0034] In this embodiment, a plurality of vents 10 are provided at the bottom of the outer wall of the qu room. The vents 10 can be used to fine-tune the temperature and humidity in the qu room according to actual needs. When the use requirements cannot be met by adjusting the outer wall adjustment windows, the vents can be adjusted to meet the use requirements and ensure the quality of the qu preparation.

[0035] In this embodiment, the qu room structure also includes a water collecting chamber 15 and a water collecting window hole 16. A water collecting window hole is provided on the wall connecting the bottom ridge and the top ridge on the horizontal side of the spiral corridor, and a water collecting chamber is provided on the spiral corridor below it to recover the water vapor of the qu flowing out of the top of each qu room. If the water vapor of the qu is directly released into the atmosphere, the temperature and humidity of the atmosphere will affect the temperature and humidity in the qu room, thereby bringing adverse effects.

[0036] In this embodiment, the single curved room is configured to be rectangular and the ventilation and temperature-regulating windows and the curved room doors are configured correspondingly, which can form a narrow tube effect and improve ventilation efficiency.

[0037] Although the embodiments of the present invention are disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will understand that various replacements, changes and modifications are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention and the appended claims. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents disclosed in the embodiments.
