[0002] Fermentation refers to the process by which microorganisms transform raw materials into desired products under specific conditions. In microbial physiology, it is defined as the process by which organic matter is oxidized and degraded by organisms, releasing energy; it is a form of biological oxidation. According to the definition in industrial production, fermentation broadly refers to all industrial production processes that rely on the life activities of microorganisms. A fermentation chamber is a specialized facility used for fermentation processes, providing a suitable environment for microbial growth and the accumulation of metabolic products by controlling conditions such as temperature and humidity.

[0003] The existing fermentation chamber consists of a constant temperature and humidity chamber, a fermentation chamber, and a support plate. When in use, the material to be fermented is placed on the upper side of the support plate, and the temperature and humidity inside the fermentation chamber are controlled by the constant temperature and humidity chamber. However, when the fermentation chamber is ventilated and dehumidified, the dehumidification components are usually concentrated on one side of the fermentation chamber, which makes it impossible to achieve uniform dehumidification inside the fermentation chamber and also affects the local temperature inside the fermentation chamber. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that when the fermentation box is ventilated and dehumidified, the dehumidification components are usually concentrated on one side of the fermentation box, which makes it impossible to achieve uniform dehumidification inside the fermentation chamber.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber, comprising a fermentation chamber body, a door, and a heat dissipation groove. A door is provided on one side of the fermentation chamber body, a heat dissipation groove is provided on the lower side of the fermentation chamber body, casters are installed at the bottom of the fermentation chamber body, a constant temperature and humidity chamber body is installed on one side of the fermentation chamber body, and a gas storage box and a dehumidification box are installed on the top of the constant temperature and humidity chamber body.

[0006] The fermentation chamber body is inserted with a main pipe, which is connected to a gas equalization ring pipe through a branch pipe. The bottom of the gas equalization ring pipe is connected to a gas equalization nozzle. A transmission gear is installed on the upper side of the main pipe, and the outer side of the transmission gear meshes with a drive gear. The middle part of the drive gear is connected to the output end of the drive motor through a coupling. The top of the main pipe is connected to a vacuum pipe through a rotary joint.

[0007] Preferably, a control box is installed inside the fermentation chamber body, and the heat dissipation groove is located on one side of the control box.

[0008] Preferably, the equalizing ring pipe is equidistantly arranged on the outside of the main pipe, and the equalizing nozzle is equidistantly arranged at the bottom of the equalizing ring pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the drive motor is connected to the mounting frame, and the bottom of the mounting frame is welded to the fermentation chamber body.

[0010] Preferably, one end of the extraction pipe is connected to the first extraction pump, and one side of the first extraction pump is connected to the dehumidification box via a dehumidification pipe.

[0011] Preferably, a first solenoid valve is installed on the side of the suction pipe near the first suction pump, the side of the suction pipe near the first solenoid valve is connected to one end of a connecting pipe, and the other end of the connecting pipe is connected to a second suction pump.

[0012] Preferably, one side of the second air pump is connected to the air storage tank via an air delivery pipe, and a second solenoid valve is installed inside the connecting pipe.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber can uniformly and without dead angles extract moisture from the inside of the fermentation chamber body, achieving uniform dehumidification. This is conducive to better control of the moisture and temperature inside the fermentation chamber body by the constant temperature and humidity chamber body, and can effectively avoid the problem of local sedimentation of gas after it is sent into the fermentation chamber body. This allows the substances inside the fermentation chamber body to ferment uniformly at the same speed, which is convenient for unified processing in the later stage. It solves the problem that when the fermentation box is ventilated and dehumidified, the dehumidification components are usually concentrated on one side of the fermentation box, which makes it impossible to achieve uniform dehumidification inside the fermentation chamber.

[0014] 1. To prevent the inability to timely extract moisture from the fermentation chamber body, which would lead to uncontrolled internal temperature, this constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber is equipped with a main pipe and a gas equalization ring pipe. When moisture needs to be removed, the first suction pump on the top of the dehumidification box is activated. The first suction pump extracts moisture from the fermentation chamber body through a suction pipe on one side, passing through a rotary joint, the main pipe, the gas equalization ring pipe, and the gas equalization nozzle. At the same time, the output end of the drive motor installed at the mounting frame drives the drive gear to rotate through a coupling, meshing with the transmission gear. Under the rotational connection of the rotary joint, the main pipe, the gas equalization ring pipe, and the gas equalization nozzle rotate. This constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber can evenly and without dead angles extract moisture from the fermentation chamber body, achieving uniform dehumidification, which is beneficial for the constant temperature and humidity chamber body to better control the moisture and temperature inside the fermentation chamber body.

[0015] 2. In this constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber, to facilitate better injection of the gas required for fermentation into the fermentation chamber body and avoid uneven gas injection, the first solenoid valve at the exhaust pipe is closed, the second solenoid valve at the connecting pipe is opened, and the second exhaust pump at the top of the gas storage tank is started. The second exhaust pump draws the treated gas from inside the gas storage tank into the connecting pipe, exhaust pipe, and main body through the gas delivery pipe, and then evenly discharges it into the fermentation chamber body through the gas equalization nozzle at the gas equalization ring pipe on the outside of the main body. This constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber can effectively avoid the problem of local sedimentation of gas after it is sent into the fermentation chamber body, so that the substances inside the fermentation chamber body can ferment evenly at the same speed, which is convenient for unified processing later.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber, including a fermentation chamber body 1, a door 101 and a heat dissipation groove 102. The fermentation chamber body 1 has a door 101 on one side, a heat dissipation groove 102 on the lower side of the fermentation chamber body 1, casters 103 installed at the bottom of the fermentation chamber body 1, a constant temperature and humidity chamber body 2 installed on one side of the fermentation chamber body 1, and a gas storage box 3 and a dehumidification box 301 installed on the top of the constant temperature and humidity chamber body 2.

[0023] A main pipe body 5 is inserted inside the fermentation chamber body 1. The main pipe body 5 is connected to a gas equalization ring pipe 501 via a branch pipe. A gas equalization nozzle 502 is connected to the bottom of the gas equalization ring pipe 501. A transmission gear 503 is installed on the upper side of the main pipe body 5. The outer side of the transmission gear 503 meshes with a drive gear 504. The middle part of the drive gear 504 is connected to the output end of a drive motor 505 via a coupling. The top of the main pipe body 5 is connected to a suction pipe 507 via a rotary joint 506. A control box 4 is installed inside the fermentation chamber body 1, and a heat dissipation slot 102 is located on one side of the control box 4. The gas equalization ring pipes 501 are equidistantly arranged on the outer side of the main pipe body 5, and the gas equalization nozzles 502 are equidistantly arranged at the bottom of the gas equalization ring pipes 501. The top of the drive motor 505 is connected to a mounting bracket 6, and the bottom of the mounting bracket 6 is welded to the fermentation chamber body 1.

[0024] In practice, to avoid the inability to timely extract moisture from the fermentation chamber body 1, which would lead to uncontrolled internal temperature, a main pipe 5 and a gas equalization ring pipe 501 are installed inside the fermentation chamber body 1. When moisture needs to be discharged, the first suction pump 7 at the top of the dehumidification box 301 is activated. The first suction pump 7 extracts moisture from the fermentation chamber body 1 through the suction pipe 507 on one side, sequentially passing through the rotary joint 506, the main pipe 5, the gas equalization ring pipe 501, and the gas equalization nozzle 502. At the same time, the output end of the drive motor 505 installed at the mounting bracket 6 drives the drive gear 504 to rotate through the coupling. Engaging with the transmission gear 503, the main body 5, the equalizing ring pipe 501, and the equalizing nozzle 502 are driven to rotate under the rotational connection of the rotary joint 506. The main body 5, the equalizing ring pipe 501, and the equalizing nozzle 502 are distributed on the upper side of multiple support plates 104, and the rotating extraction effectively avoids the problem of reduced extraction efficiency caused by damage to the equalizing nozzle 502. This constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber can evenly and without dead angles extract the moisture inside the fermentation chamber body 1, achieving uniform dehumidification, which is conducive to the constant temperature and humidity chamber body 2 better controlling the moisture and temperature inside the fermentation chamber body 1.

[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 4It is known that one end of the suction pipe 507 is connected to the first suction pump 7, one side of the first suction pump 7 is connected to the dehumidification box 301 through the dehumidification pipe 701, a first solenoid valve 8 is installed on the side of the suction pipe 507 near the first suction pump 7, one end of the suction pipe 507 near the first solenoid valve 8 is connected to the connecting pipe 801, the other end of the connecting pipe 801 is connected to the second suction pump 803, one side of the second suction pump 803 is connected to the air storage box 3 through the air supply pipe 804, and a second solenoid valve 802 is installed inside the connecting pipe 801.

[0026] In specific implementation, to facilitate better injection of the gas required for fermentation into the fermentation chamber body 1 and avoid uneven gas injection, the first solenoid valve 8 at the extraction pipe 507 is closed, the second solenoid valve 802 at the connecting pipe 801 is opened, and the second extraction pump 803 at the top of the gas storage tank 3 is started. The second extraction pump 803 draws the treated gas from inside the gas storage tank 3 through the gas delivery pipe 804 to the connecting pipe 801, the extraction pipe 507, and the main body 5, and then evenly discharges it to the fermentation chamber body 1 through the gas equalization nozzle 502 at the gas equalization ring pipe 501 on the outside of the main body 5, so that the gas is evenly filled inside the fermentation chamber body 1. This constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber can effectively avoid the problem of local sedimentation of gas after it is sent into the fermentation chamber body 1, so that the material inside the fermentation chamber body 1 can ferment evenly at the same speed, which is convenient for unified processing later.

[0027] In summary, when using this constant temperature and humidity fermentation chamber, first open the door 101 and neatly place the fermentation material on the support plate 104, then close the door 101. The temperature and humidity inside the fermentation chamber 1 are monitored by the constant temperature and humidity chamber body 2 on one side of the fermentation chamber body 1. When the internal humidity exceeds the range, the first air pump 7 draws the moisture to the dehumidification box 301 for treatment and discharge. The second air pump 803 replenishes the gas inside the gas storage box 3 to the fermentation chamber body 1 in a timely manner. The heat dissipation groove 102 is used to control the heat dissipation of the control box 4 during operation, and the casters 103 are used for the movement of the fermentation chamber body 1.
