[0027] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the automatic stirring fermentation device for high-protein fermented products according to the embodiment of the present utility model is shown. Figure 2 Shown Figure 1 Enlarged structural diagram at point A in the middle. Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of the side cavity and the third cavity of an embodiment of the present utility model is shown. Figure 4 The figure shows the structure of the outer cylinder and the fan of the embodiment of the utility model. Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the utility model discloses an automatic stirring fermentation device for high-protein fermentation products.

[0028] The automatic stirring fermentation device for high-protein fermentation product includes: a first power device 6, a cylinder 1 for accommodating high-protein fermentation product, an outer cylinder 2 wrapping the bottom of the cylinder 1, a dissolution tank 3 for storing solution, a heating device 4 arranged on the dissolution tank 3 and heating the solution, and a stirring rod 5 rotatably arranged in the cylinder 1.

[0029] The outer cylinder 2 wraps around the lower surface of the cylinder 1 and the lower end of the outer surface of the cylinder 1. A channel 21 is formed within the outer cylinder 2, extending outward from the center. The outlet of the dissolving chamber 3 is connected to the channel 21. A heating device 4 heats the solution in the dissolving chamber 3 to generate steam. The steam enters the channel 21 and flows along the channel. The heat of the steam is transferred to the cylinder 1, heating the high-protein fermentation product within the cylinder 1.

[0030] The first power device 6 drives the stirring rod 5 to rotate, and the stirring rod 5 stirs the high-protein fermentation material in the cylinder 1.

[0031] Heating device 4 heats the solution to form steam, which in turn heats cylinder 1, preventing overheating. The steam fills channel 21, gradually transferring heat to cylinder 1, increasing the heated surface area. The distance between channel 21 and cylinder 1 allows for low-temperature heating of cylinder 1, maintaining a stable fermentation environment for high-protein fermentables.

[0032] Outer cylinder 2 surrounds the outer surface of cylinder body 1, forming a space 22. Space 22 is open at its upper end to facilitate placement of cylinder body 1. Space 22 is provided with a partition 23, which supports cylinder body 1. Space 22 is isolated from the outer surface of cylinder body 1 by partition 23, preventing contact with the surface of space 22. This allows the high-temperature steam generated to pass through space 22 while cylinder body 1 is heated at a lower temperature.

[0033] The upper end of the space 22 spirals upward to form an outlet, which is perpendicular to the outer surface of the cylinder 1. A fan 24 is provided at the outlet of the space 22 to extract air from the space 22. The extraction position of the space 22 does not directly face the outer surface of the cylinder 1 to avoid causing a temperature drop in a local area of ​​the cylinder 1, which would affect the fermentation environment of the high-protein fermentation product.

[0034] The channel 21 includes a first cavity 211, a second cavity 212 arranged at the lower end of the outer cylinder 2 around the first cavity 211, and a third cavity 213 spirally surrounding the cylinder 1. The first cavity 211, the second cavity 212 and the third cavity 213 are connected in sequence.

[0035] The first cavity 211 is circular and located in the middle of the lower end of the outer tube 2. The second cavity 212 is spirally laid at the lower end of the outer tube 2. The third cavity 213 is spirally laid at the lower end of the inner side of the channel 21. The upper end of the third cavity 213 forms a pressure relief valve, which relieves pressure in the channel 21 when it becomes excessive.

[0036] Heating device 4 heats the solution in dissolving chamber 3, generating steam. This steam flows upward, sequentially entering first cavity 211, second cavity 212, and third cavity 213. The steam fills channel 21, heating space 22. The heat in space 22 is then transferred to cylinder 1 and the high-protein fermentation product. During this flow, some of the steam cools and liquefies, flowing back into dissolving chamber 3.

[0037] Channel 21 also includes side cavities 214. The side cavities 214 are arranged in a staggered manner to connect the two sides of the second cavity 212 and the two sides of the third cavity 213. The side cavities 214 between adjacent second cavities 212 are arranged in sequence, and the side cavities 214 between adjacent third cavities 213 are arranged in sequence. When steam enters the second and third cavities 212, 213, the steam enters the side cavities 214, extending the time the steam stays in channel 21. At the same time, the side cavities 214 cover the area between adjacent second cavities 212 and adjacent third cavities 213, reducing blind spots in heating and increasing the heating area of ​​channel 21.

[0038] The stirring rod 5 includes a rod body 51, a side rod 52 arranged along the inner surface of the cylinder 1, and a fixed frame 53 rotatably arranged on the rod body 51. A notch is formed at the upper end of the cylinder 1. A block 13 with sharp edges is formed at the lower end of the cylinder 1. A groove 14 is formed on the lower surface within the space 22 for accommodating the block 13. The shape of the groove 14 is a copy of the shape of the block 13. When the cylinder 1 is placed in the space 22, the block 13 is placed in the groove 14, and the rotation of the cylinder 1 is restricted by the cooperation between the sharp edges of the block 13 and the groove 14.

[0039] Rod body 51 is arranged vertically. Side rods 52 are connected to the outer surface of rod body 51. A fixing bracket 53 is rotatably mounted on rod body 51 via bearings. Fixing bracket 53 is positioned above side rods 52. When side rods 52 are placed within cylinder body 1, fixing bracket 53 is positioned within the notch, allowing fixing bracket 53 to engage with cylinder body 1, effectively defining the position between fixing bracket 53 and cylinder body 1.

[0040] The lower end of the inner surface of the cylinder 1 is provided with a seat body 11. A ball 12 is rolled in the seat body 11. A rod groove 54 is formed around the lower end of the stirring rod 5.

[0041] A spring 15 is also installed within the base 11, pushing the ball 12 outward. When the stirring rod 5 is installed within the barrel 1, the spring 15 pushes the ball 12 into the rod groove 54. As the stirring rod 5 rotates, the base 11 rests on the lower end of the rod 51, and the ball 12 rolls along the rod groove 54. The base 11 restrains the lower end of the rod 51, while the fixing bracket 53 restrains the upper end of the rod 51, allowing the rod 51 to rotate smoothly.

[0042] The automatic stirring fermentation device for high-protein fermentable material further comprises a driving frame 7, a mobile frame 71 movably arranged on the driving frame 7, and a second power device 72 for driving the mobile frame 71. The first power device 6 is arranged on the mobile frame 71.

[0043] Exemplarily, the first power device 6 is a motor. The driving end of the first power device 6 is connected to the upper end of the rod body 51, and the driving end of the first power device 6 and the rod body 51 can be disassembled. A rack 73 is provided in the up and down directions of the driving frame 7. Exemplarily, the second power device 72 is a motor. A gear 74 is installed at the driving end of the second power device 72. The gear 74 engages the rack 73, and the second power device 72 drives the gear 74 to rotate, driving the rack 73 and the movable frame 71 to move up and down. The downward movement of the movable frame 71 exerts downward pressure on the stirring rod 5, so that the stirring rod 5 rotates smoothly. The movable frame 71 moves upward, and the stirring rod 5 moves out of the cylinder 1 to facilitate the removal of the high-protein fermentation material in the cylinder 1.

[0044] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0045] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
