Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermentation, in particular to a combined fermentation device which is convenient to move. Background Art

[0002] Fermentation refers to the process by which people utilize the life activities of microorganisms under aerobic or anaerobic conditions to prepare the microorganisms themselves, or directly obtain metabolites or secondary metabolites. Fermentation is sometimes also written as "fermentation", and its definition varies depending on the usage scenario. Generally speaking, fermentation mostly refers to a certain decomposition process of organic substances by organisms.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN221284515U discloses a fermentation device, including: a fermentation tank; a rotating shaft, the bottom end of the rotating shaft penetrates and extends into the fermentation tank, and a plurality of horizontal stirring cylinders are arranged on the shaft body of the rotating shaft in the fermentation tank in a staggered manner from top to bottom. A plurality of vertical stirring cylinders are connected between every two adjacent horizontal stirring cylinders arranged up and down. One end of each horizontal stirring cylinder away from the rotating shaft is provided with a first aeration head, and a plurality of second aeration heads are arranged at equal intervals from top to bottom on each vertical stirring cylinder. The rotating shaft is driven by a driving component; an air supply pipe, the rotating shaft is of a hollow structure, one end of the air supply pipe is rotationally connected to the top end of the rotating shaft, and the other end of the air supply pipe is provided with an aeration blower.

[0004] However, in the prior art, there are two ways to move the fermentation tank. One way is to place the fermentation tank on a moving vehicle for transportation. In this way, the fermentation tank needs to be first moved onto the moving vehicle and then fixed. This method of moving is relatively cumbersome and not convenient to use. The other way is to set moving wheels at the bottom of the fermentation tank for movement. After moving to a suitable position, the moving wheels are fixed. However, the contact area between the moving wheels and the ground is small, and it is easy to slide. Moreover, the fixing of the moving wheels is achieved by increasing friction. In this way, during use, as long as the force required for movement is greater than the frictional force, the fermentation tank will still move, resulting in unstable use.
