Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, many other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a liquid fermentation tank device for the production of Gastrodia elata and Armillaria mellea, comprising a tank body 1, a connecting column 10 disposed on the rear side of the tank body 1, a fixed connecting ring 4 fixedly connected to the middle of the front side of the connecting column 10, the fixed connecting ring 4 being slidably connected to the tank body 1, a fixed block 3 fixedly connected to the right front end of the connecting column 10, a supporting circular plate 24 fixedly connected to the left front end of the connecting column 10, a rotating column 26 fixedly connected to the rear side of the connecting column 10, the rear end of the rotating column 26 penetrating a straight column 9 and fixedly connected to a first rotating ring 8, and a moving block 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the straight column 9. A motor 17 is installed at the right end of the tank body 1. A long rod 16 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 17. The right end of the long rod 16 passes through the tank body 1. Stirring blades 15 are fixedly connected at equal intervals to the outer wall of the long rod 16. A discharge pipe 22 is connected to the bottom of the tank body 1. A feed pipe 12 is connected to the top of the tank body 1. A cleaning mechanism 2 is installed inside the tank body 1. The cleaning mechanism 2 is used to clean the tank body 1. A top cover 23 is installed at one end of both the feed pipe 12 and the discharge pipe 22. A handle 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the top cover 23. A slot 6 is opened on the front side of the tank body 1. A transparent square piece 5 is fixedly connected inside the slot 6.

[0033] Specifically, the bottom of the straight column 9 is fixed on the moving block 7, supporting the entire device. By rotating the first rotating ring 8, the rotating column 26 is fixedly connected to the first rotating ring 8 and the connecting column 10. The rotating column 26 also passes through the straight column 9, allowing the two fixed connecting rings 4, the supporting circular plate 24, and the fixed block 3 to rotate. The tank 1 will also rotate accordingly, allowing the fermentation liquid to be fed into the tank 1 through the feed pipe 12. When the stirring process needs to be started, the motor 17 is turned on. The rotation of the motor 17 drives the stirring blade 15 to rotate through the long rod 16, so that the nutrients and oxygen in the fermentation liquid inside the tank 1 are evenly distributed, thereby effectively promoting the growth and metabolism of Gastrodia elata. To facilitate the observation of the state of Gastrodia elata, a transparent square plate 5 is installed on the outside of the tank 1. Through the transparent square plate 5, researchers and operators can directly see the growth of Gastrodia elata. When the device is not in use, the top cover 23 is installed on the feed pipe 12 and the discharge pipe 22 through the handle 11.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The cleaning mechanism 2 includes a fixed plate 211, which is engaged with the middle of the supporting circular plate 24. A rotating column 208 is rotatably connected to the front left end of the fixed plate 211. A through-hole block 209 is fixedly connected to the left end of the rotating column 208. A rotating rod 210 passes through the interior of the through-hole block 209. A driving bevel gear 206 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the rotating rod 210. A driven bevel gear 207 is meshed with the right side of the driving bevel gear 206. The right end of the driven bevel gear 207... A rotating circular plate 201 is fixedly connected through the fixed plate 211. Nozzles 202 are fixedly connected to all four sides of the right side of the rotating circular plate 201. A right-angle rod 204 is fixedly connected to the middle of the right side of the rotating circular plate 201. A rotating brush 203 is fixedly connected to the right end of the outer side of the right-angle rod 204. A first pull ring 205 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the fixed plate 211. A second rotating ring 14 is fixedly connected to the front end of the rotating rod 210. A short column 13 is fixedly connected to the front side of the second rotating ring 14.

[0035] Specifically, after the production process of Gastrodia elata and Armillaria mellea is completed, the fixing plate 211 is installed on the supporting circular plate 24, and the through hole block 209 is adjusted to the appropriate position so that the driving bevel gear 206 and the driven bevel gear 207 can mesh correctly. By manually rotating the short column 13, the second rotating ring 14 rotates accordingly. This action will drive the rotating rod 210 and the driving bevel gear 206 to rotate together. The driving bevel gear 206 and the driven bevel gear 207 mesh and drive each other, so that the rotating circular plate 201 starts to rotate. When the rotating circular plate 201 rotates, since the right-angle rod 204 is fixed with the rotating brush 203, the nozzle 202 will spray out cleaning liquid to scrub inside the tank 1, effectively removing the residual Gastrodia elata and Armillaria mellea and other impurities during the production process. The motor 17 is model M3508.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Support rods 25 are fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the straight column 9. The bottom of the support rods 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable block 7. Universal wheels 21 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 7. A locking block 19 is fixedly connected to the left side of the fixed block 3. A blocking block 18 is locked to the right side of the locking block 19. A second pull ring 20 is fixedly connected to the right end of the blocking block 18.

[0037] Specifically, the support rod 25 installed on the lower outer side of the straight column 9 is used to assist the support device of the straight column 9. The caster 21 installed at the bottom of its moving block 7 can move the device to the required position. When using the device, the blocking block 18 engaged in the locking block 19 is placed on the support circular plate 24 by the second pull ring 20.

[0038] Working principle: The bottom of the straight column 9 is fixed on the moving block 7, supporting the device. By rotating the first rotating ring 8, since the rotating column 26 is fixedly connected to the first rotating ring 8 and the connecting column 10, and the rotating column 26 passes through the straight column 9, the two fixed connecting rings 4, the supporting circular plate 24 and the fixed block 3 can rotate, thereby driving the tank body 1 to rotate. The fermentation liquid is input from the feed pipe 12. The motor 17 is turned on, so that the long rod 16 drives the stirring blade 15 to rotate, which can make the nutrients and oxygen in the fermentation liquid inside the tank body 1 evenly distributed, promoting the growth and metabolism of Gastrodia elata and Armillaria mellea. A transparent square plate 5 is installed on the outside of the tank body 1, through which the state of Gastrodia elata and Armillaria mellea can be observed.

[0039] When the production of Armillaria mellea is completed and the device needs to be cleaned, the blocking block 18 is removed from the supporting circular plate 24 and placed on the locking block 19. The fixing plate 211 is installed on the supporting circular plate 24 at the position of the blocking block 18. The through-hole block 209 is rotated until the driving bevel gear 206 meshes with the driven bevel gear 207. By rotating the short column 13, the second rotating ring 14 rotates, driving the rotating rod 210 and the driving bevel gear 206 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 206 meshes with the driven bevel gear 207 to drive the rotation, thereby causing the rotating circular plate 201 to rotate. The nozzle 202 and the rotating brush 203 on the right-angle rod 204 rotate to clean the inside of the tank 1.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
