Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rice wine processing equipment, specifically to a rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank. Background Technology

[0002] Rice wine is made from the most common rice through fermentation; fermentation is an essential step in the rice wine making process, and the rice is placed in a rice fermentation tank for fermentation.

[0003] Rice wine fermentation occurs in a solid-liquid coexistence state. After fermentation, when the rice wine needs to be removed, the fermented rice residue needs to be filtered to separate the solid and liquid. Most existing rice fermentation tanks have filters installed at the drain outlet to facilitate the filtration of rice residue during rice wine discharge, achieving solid-liquid separation and simplifying the collection of the rice wine. However, in practical use, the following drawbacks still exist:

[0004] Although the rice fermentation tank is equipped with filters at the drain outlet to filter the rice residue when the rice wine is discharged, the filtered rice residue will remain in the fermentation tank, which requires staff to remove the residue, making it troublesome and inconvenient to use.

[0005] Therefore, this application proposes a rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A rapid slag discharge rice fermentation tank includes a fermentation tank body with an open top. Support columns are fixedly installed in a rectangular array at the bottom of the fermentation tank body. A drain pipe is connected through the bottom of the fermentation tank body, and a valve is fixedly installed on the drain pipe. Support plates are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the fermentation tank body. Vertical telescopic rods are symmetrically fixed on the top of the support plates. Bearing blocks are fixed on the top of the two telescopic rods. An electric cylinder connected to the bearing blocks is fixedly installed on the top of the support plates. A cover plate that can seal the open end of the fermentation tank body is installed between the opposite sides of the two bearing blocks.

[0009] At the bottom of the cover plate and inside the fermentation tank body, vertical telescopic rods 2 are fixedly installed in a rectangular array. At the bottom of the four telescopic rods 2, filter frames with open tops are fixedly installed. At the bottom of the cover plate, electric cylinders 2 are symmetrically fixed and connected to the filter frames. When the cover plate seals the open end of the fermentation tank body, the filter frames are hidden inside the fermentation tank body.

[0010] The cover plate has two guide rods that move vertically between the four telescopic rods. The bottom of the two guide rods is fixedly installed with a pressure plate that can extend into the filter frame. When the pressure plate extends into the filter frame, the outer side wall of the pressure plate fits against the inner side wall of the filter frame. The cover plate is equipped with a driving mechanism that acts on the pressure plate, which is used to move the pressure plate closer to or away from the cover plate along the two guide rods.

[0011] Furthermore: the drive mechanism includes a threaded post, a threaded sleeve, and a drive component;

[0012] The cover plate has a through hole, and a threaded post moves vertically through the through hole. The bottom of the threaded post extends to the bottom of the cover plate and is rotatably connected to the pressure plate. A threaded sleeve that is threadedly connected to the threaded post is rotatably installed on the top of the cover plate outside the through hole. A driving component that acts on the threaded sleeve is installed on the cover plate to make the threaded sleeve rotate on the cover plate.

[0013] Furthermore: the driving component includes a motor fixedly mounted on the top of the cover plate, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to a threaded sleeve via a bevel gear assembly.

[0014] Furthermore: a sealing groove is provided on the top of the fermentation tank body and on the outside of its opening end; a sealing gasket that engages with the fermentation tank body is inserted on the fermentation tank body and in the sealing groove; when the cover plate seals the opening end of the fermentation tank body, the sealing gasket abuts against the cover plate and is hidden in the sealing groove; a rubber gasket that abuts against the bottom of the cover plate is fixedly installed on the top of the pressure plate on the outside of the two guide rods.

[0015] Furthermore: the cover plate is rotatably mounted between the opposite sides of two bearing blocks via a rotating shaft, and one of the bearing blocks is fixedly mounted with a motor connected to the rotating shaft.

[0016] Furthermore: a connecting plate is symmetrically fixed to the top of the cover plate, and an arc-shaped groove is provided on the bearing block. The center of the arc-shaped groove and the rotation axis are located in the same axial direction. A connecting shaft extending into the arc-shaped groove is fixedly installed on the connecting plate, and the connecting shaft is slidably hinged to the arc-shaped groove.

[0017] Furthermore, the angle formed between the two ends of the arc-shaped groove and the central axis of the rotating shaft is 150 degrees. When the cover plate seals the opening end of the fermentation tank body, the cover plate is horizontal and the rotating shaft is located at one end of the arc-shaped groove.

[0018] This invention provides a rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0019] 1. After rice fermentation is complete, when the rice wine is removed, rice residue remains in the filter frame. During this process, the driving mechanism moves the pressure plate away from the cover plate along the two guide rods. The pressure plate extends into the filter frame to squeeze the rice residue, improving the solid-liquid separation effect and facilitating the discharge of rice wine. After the rice wine is discharged, the two electric cylinders are controlled to move the cover plate upward, thereby lifting the filter frame above the fermentation tank body, facilitating the discharge of rice residue from the fermentation tank body, improving the discharge efficiency of rice residue, and making it easier to use.

[0020] 2. By setting a sealing gasket, when the cover plate seals the opening of the fermentation tank body, the sealing gasket and the cover plate come into contact and are hidden in the sealing groove, increasing the fit between the cover plate and the fermentation tank body, thereby increasing the sealing effect on the opening of the fermentation tank body; by setting a rubber gasket, when fermenting rice, the driving mechanism moves the pressure plate closer to the cover plate along the two guide rods, so that the rubber gasket comes into contact with the bottom of the cover plate, increasing the fit between the pressure plate and the cover plate, and achieving a sealing effect at the connection between the guide rod and the cover plate and the perforation;

[0021] 3. The cover plate is mounted between two supporting blocks via a rotating shaft. When it is necessary to discharge rice residue from the filter frame, the rotating shaft is rotated on the supporting blocks by the motor, which in turn rotates the cover plate between the two supporting blocks. This causes the filter frame to flip over and be above the cover plate, making the filter frame tilted. At this time, the open end of the filter frame is below it, which allows the rice residue inside the filter frame to be poured out, which is beneficial for the discharge of rice residue from the filter frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] To address the technical problems in the background section, the following rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank is provided:

[0033] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, the rapid slag discharge type rice fermentation tank provided by this utility model includes a fermentation tank body 1, the top of which is open. Support columns 11 are fixedly installed in a rectangular array at the bottom of the fermentation tank body 1. A drain pipe 12 is connected through the bottom of the fermentation tank body 1. A valve 13 is fixedly installed on the drain pipe 12. Support plates 2 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the fermentation tank body 1. Vertical telescopic rods 21 are symmetrically fixed on the top of the support plates 2. Bearing blocks 22 are fixed on the top of the two telescopic rods 21. An electric cylinder 23 connected to the bearing blocks 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plates 2. A cover plate 24 that can seal the open end of the fermentation tank body 1 is installed between the opposite sides of the two bearing blocks 22.

[0034] At the bottom of the cover plate 24 and inside the fermentation tank body 1, vertical telescopic rods 25 are fixedly installed in a rectangular array. Filter frames 26 with open tops are fixedly installed at the bottom of the four telescopic rods 25. Several filter holes are opened on the outer wall and bottom of the filter frames 26. Electric cylinders 27 connected to the filter frames 26 are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the cover plate 24. When the cover plate 24 seals the opening of the fermentation tank body 1, the filter frames 26 are hidden inside the fermentation tank body 1. When rice is fed, the two electric cylinders 23 are controlled to move the two bearing blocks 22 upward along the telescopic rods 21, which drives the cover plate 24 upward. At the same time, the two electric cylinders 27 move the filter frames 26 downward along the telescopic rods 25, so that the filter frames 26 are hidden away from the cover plate 24 and inside the fermentation tank body 1, which facilitates the feeding of rice.

[0035] The cover plate 24 has two guide rods 241 that move vertically between the four telescopic rods 25. The bottom of the two guide rods 241 is fixedly installed with a pressure plate 3 that can extend into the filter frame 26. When the pressure plate 3 extends into the filter frame 26, the outer side wall of the pressure plate 3 fits against the inner side wall of the filter frame 26. The cover plate 24 is equipped with a driving mechanism 4 that acts on the pressure plate 3, which is used to move the pressure plate 3 closer to or away from the cover plate 24 along the two guide rods 241.

[0036] In use, during rice fermentation, rice, yeast, and water are placed in the filter frame 26. Two electric cylinders 23 are controlled to move the two support blocks 22 downwards along the telescopic rod 21, sealing the opening of the fermentation tank body 1 with the cover plate 24. The filter frame 26 is then concealed within the fermentation tank body 1 for rice fermentation. Once fermentation is complete, to remove the rice wine, valve 13 is opened, allowing the rice wine in the fermentation tank body 1 to drain through the drain pipe 12. The rice wine in the filter frame 26 is discharged through the filter holes, while rice residue remains inside the filter frame 26. During this process, the driving mechanism 4 moves the pressure plate 3 away from the cover plate 24 along the two guide rods 241. The pressure plate 3 extends into the filter frame 26 to squeeze the rice residue, improving the solid-liquid separation effect and facilitating the discharge of rice wine. After the rice wine is discharged, the two electric cylinders 23 are controlled to move the two bearing blocks 22 upward along the telescopic rods 21, thereby moving the cover plate 24 upward. This lifts the filter frame 26 above the fermentation tank body 1, facilitating the discharge of rice residue from the fermentation tank body 1, improving the discharge efficiency of rice residue, and making it easier to use.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides the following:

[0039] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 4 includes a threaded post 41, a threaded sleeve 42, and a driving member 43. A through hole 242 is provided on the cover plate 24. The threaded post 41 moves vertically through the through hole 242. The bottom of the threaded post 41 extends to the bottom of the cover plate 24 and is rotatably connected to the pressure plate 3. The top of the cover plate 24, located outside the through hole 242, is rotatably equipped with a threaded sleeve 42 that is threadedly connected to the threaded post 41. A driving member 43 is installed on the cover plate 24 to act on the threaded sleeve 42, which is used to make the threaded sleeve 42 rotate on the cover plate 24. In use, the threaded sleeve 42 is rotated on the cover plate 24 by the driving member 43. The threaded sleeve 42 is threadedly connected to the threaded post 41, so that the threaded post 41 can be vertically displaced in the through hole 242, so that the pressure plate 3 can move closer to or away from the cover plate 24 along the two guide rods 241.

[0040] In this embodiment, the driving component 43 includes a motor 431 fixedly mounted on the top of the cover plate 24. The output shaft of the motor 431 is connected to the threaded sleeve 42 through a bevel gear assembly 432. Specifically, the bevel gear assembly 432 includes two meshing bevel gears. One bevel gear is coaxially fixed to the threaded sleeve 42, and the other bevel gear is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the motor 431. In use, the motor 431 is turned on, and the output shaft of the motor 431 rotates, thereby driving the threaded sleeve 42 to rotate on the cover plate 24 through the bevel gear assembly 432.

[0041] In this embodiment, a sealing groove is provided on the top of the fermentation tank body 1 and on the outer side of its open end. A sealing gasket 14 is inserted on the fermentation tank body 1 and inside the sealing groove, engaging with the fermentation tank body 1. When the cover plate 24 seals the open end of the fermentation tank body 1, the sealing gasket 14 abuts against the cover plate 24 and is hidden inside the sealing groove. A rubber gasket 31 that abuts against the bottom of the cover plate 24 is fixedly installed on the top of the pressure plate 3 on the outer side of the two guide rods 241. By setting the sealing gasket 14, the cover plate 24 seals the open end of the fermentation tank body 1. During sealing, the sealing gasket 14 abuts against the cover plate 24 and is hidden in the sealing groove, increasing the fit between the cover plate 24 and the fermentation tank body 1, thereby increasing the sealing effect on the opening end of the fermentation tank body 1; by setting the rubber gasket 31, during rice fermentation, the driving mechanism 4 causes the pressure plate 3 to move closer to the cover plate 24 along the two guide rods 241, so that the rubber gasket 31 abuts against the bottom of the cover plate 24, increasing the fit between the pressure plate 3 and the cover plate 24, and achieving a sealing effect on the connection between the guide rod 241 and the cover plate 24 as well as the perforation 242.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides the following:

[0044] In this embodiment, the cover plate 24 is rotatably mounted between the opposite sides of two support blocks 22 via a rotating shaft 243. One of the support blocks 22 is fixedly mounted with a motor 221 connected to the rotating shaft 243. By setting the cover plate 24 to be rotatably mounted between the opposite sides of the two support blocks 22 via the rotating shaft 243, when it is necessary to discharge the rice residue in the filter frame 26, the motor 221 causes the rotating shaft 243 to rotate on the support block 22, thereby rotating the cover plate 24 between the two support blocks 22. This causes the filter frame 26 to flip over and be above the cover plate 24, making the filter frame 26 tilted. At this time, the open end of the filter frame 26 is located below it, so that the rice residue in the filter frame 26 can be poured out, which is beneficial for the discharge of rice residue in the filter frame 26.

[0045] In this embodiment, a connecting plate 5 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the cover plate 24. An arc-shaped groove 222 is provided on the bearing block 22. The center of the arc-shaped groove 222 is located on the same axial direction as the rotation axis 243. A connecting shaft 51 extending into the arc-shaped groove 222 is fixedly installed on the connecting plate 5, and the connecting shaft 51 is slidably hinged to the arc-shaped groove 222. Specifically, the connecting shaft 51 can slide in the arc-shaped groove 222 and can rotate in the arc-shaped groove 222. By setting the connecting shaft 51 and the arc-shaped groove 222, when the cover plate 24 rotates around the rotation axis 243 between the two bearing blocks 22, the connecting shaft 51 rotates around the rotation axis 243. At this time, the connecting shaft 51 rotates in the arc-shaped groove 222 and slides along the arc-shaped groove 222. The bearing block 22 provides auxiliary support for the connecting shaft 51, thereby achieving auxiliary support for the cover plate 24.

[0046] In this embodiment, the angle formed between the two ends of the arc groove 222 and the central axis of the rotating shaft 243 is 150 degrees. When the cover plate 24 seals the opening end of the fermentation tank body 1, the cover plate 24 is horizontal and the rotating shaft 243 is located at one end of the arc groove 222, which makes it easy to adjust the cover plate 24 to a horizontal position, thereby facilitating the subsequent sealing of the opening end of the fermentation tank body 1 by the cover plate 24.
