Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermentation machines, in particular to a home brewing, fermentation and refrigeration integrated machine. Background Art
[0002] As people's pursuit of healthy living and personalized food continues to improve, home-brewed fermented foods are becoming more and more popular. However, traditional home-brewed fermentation equipment often has a single function and cannot meet people's needs for precise temperature control, sufficient stirring, and easy cleaning during the fermentation process. In the past, home brewers usually used simple containers for fermentation, which made it difficult to accurately control the fermentation temperature, resulting in unstable fermentation results. Moreover, the lack of an effective stirring device made it difficult to fully mix the fermented material, affecting the fermentation quality. After the fermentation is completed, cleaning the equipment also becomes a problem. The residual fermented material not only affects the quality of the next fermentation, but may also breed bacteria. Today, with the increasing awareness of environmental protection, people have also put forward higher requirements for the rational use of resources. Traditional equipment often wastes a lot of water resources during the cleaning process, which is not in line with the concept of sustainable development.
[0003] After searching, the applicant discovered a Chinese patent disclosure for "a home brewing, fermentation and refrigeration all-in-one machine" with the publication (announcement) number "CN219385156U". This patent mainly provides a cooling and heating device. At the same time, under the action of the stirring device and the air intake assembly, the gas required for fermentation can fully react with the fermented product. The temperature during the fermentation process can be quickly adjusted to ensure that the fermented product is heated evenly and prevent local temperature deviations. However, this device cannot be automatically cleaned. Therefore, we propose a home brewing, fermentation and refrigeration all-in-one machine. Utility Model Content

[0030] Working principle:
[0031] First, during the fermentation process, the raw materials are poured into the inner tank 102 from the feed port 11 at the front end of the tank cover 3. The cooling and heating component 2 on the inner wall of the outer tank 101 can adjust the fermentation temperature as needed. When the temperature needs to be increased, the annular heating rod 203 works and quickly transfers heat to the inner tank 102 through the position between the outer bottom end of the inner tank 102 and the inner side of the outer tank 101. When the temperature needs to be lowered, the cooling medium flows in from the water inlet 201 at the top of one side of the outer tank 101, and flows out from the water outlet 202 at the bottom end of one side of the outer tank 101 after absorbing heat. The water flowing out of the water outlet 202 flows into the water storage tank 7 through the water pipe 8, and the second motor 401 on the top surface of the tank cover 3 drives the rotating rod 402 to drive the stirring The blades 403 rotate to fully mix the fermented material, thereby improving the fermentation efficiency and quality. The temperature detector 12 monitors the fermentation temperature in real time so that the user can adjust the equipment parameters. After the fermentation is completed, when the inner tank 102 needs to be cleaned, the washing liquid in the washing liquid tank 6 flows into the inner tank 102. At the same time, the water in the water storage tank 7 enters the inner tank 102 through the delivery pipe 5. The first motor 903 on the top surface of the tank cover 3 drives the moving rod 902, and the moving rod 902 pulls the annular scraper 901. The annular scraper 901 moves up and down on the inner wall of the inner tank 102. The three groups of annular scrapers 901 connected by the connecting rod work together to scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the inner tank 102. At this point, the entire workflow ends.
[0032] The above-mentioned front, back, left, right, up and down are all based on the Figure 1 As a benchmark, according to the person's observation perspective, the side of the device facing the observer is defined as the front, the left side of the observer is defined as the left, and so on.
