[0024] The still includes an integrated flip still 31, an upper still feeder 321, an upper still robot 32, and an automatic wine picking system 33. The integrated flip still 31 is used to hold the wine lees and perform wine distillation. The integrated flip still 31 is driven to rotate by a driving motor. The upper still robot 32 is arranged on one side of the integrated flip still 31. The upper still feeder 321 is used to receive the intermediate transfer hopper sent by the transfer trolley 22 and cooperate with the upper still robot 32 to automatically distribute the wine lees into the integrated flip still 31. The top of the integrated flip still 31 is rotatably connected with a flip still cover. The inlet of the automatic wine picking system 33 is connected with the flip still cover, and the outlet is connected with a head wine tank, a tail wine tank, and a wine storage tank.

The wine storage tank is used to store the qualified wine body during the brewing process.
[0025] The integrated flip still 31 is arranged below the still conveyor track 81. The mobile still conveyor 82 is arranged on the still conveyor track 81. The horizontal movement of the mobile still conveyor 82 on the still conveyor track 81 enables the mobile still conveyor 82 to receive the material from the bottom of the integrated flip still 31 and send the material to the spreading mechanism.
[0026] The spreading mechanism includes a multi-stage continuous spreading machine 41 composed of a plurality of chain conveyors. The still conveyor track 81 passes through the feeding end of the multi-stage continuous spreading machine 41, so that the still conveyor track 81 can move the mobile still conveyor 82 to the feeding end of the multi-stage continuous spreading machine 41 to send the material on the mobile still conveyor 82.

After the open-top feed hopper 21 is jacked by the mixing jacking machine, the upper opening of the open-top feed hopper 21 is in butt joint with the mixing machine 71. The mixing machine 71 locks the open-top feed hopper 21, and the materials in the open-top feed hopper 21 are stirred by overturning and stirring. After the materials are uniformly stirred, the locking operation on the open-top feed hopper 21 is released. The open-top feed hopper 21 is lowered again by the mixing jacking machine and conveyed to one side of the mixing machine 71 on the feeding conveyor 62. The open-top feed hopper 21 is continuously transferred by the transfer trolley 22. The fermented grains, grain powder and rice husk are concentrated and mixed by the mixing machine 71, and the mixing uniformity is good.
