[0011] The second drive motor is located between the first drive motor and the transmission roller, and the power output end of the second drive motor is connected to the second drive sprocket.

[0012] The second drive sprocket is connected to the disassembly structure via a transmission chain;

[0013] The disintegration structure is located above the drive drum;

[0014] The rake-loosening and spreading structure is located below the drive roller.

[0015] Furthermore, the dispersing structure is located at the discharge end of the material holding chamber and there is a gap between it and the drive roller. The dispersing structure includes a dispersing shaft and a dispersing rod. One end of the dispersing shaft is connected to the second drive sprocket through a drive chain.

[0016] The dispersing rods are evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the dispersing shaft.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0029] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a steamer spreading mechanism includes a frame 1, a robotic arm connecting seat 3 on the frame 1, a material holding port 2 on the upper part of the frame 1, a material holding cavity 16 inside the frame 1, a first sensing device 4 on the top of the frame 1 facing the material holding cavity 16, a conveying mechanism and a loosening and spreading mechanism on the lower part of the frame 1, the conveying mechanism can convey the material in the material holding cavity 16, and the loosening and spreading mechanism can output the material in the material holding cavity 16 from one side of the material holding cavity 16.

[0031] The purpose of this design is to provide a conveying mechanism and a dispersing and raking mechanism on the frame. On the one hand, the conveying mechanism can push the fermented mash in the feeding chamber toward the dispersing and raking mechanism. On the other hand, the dispersing and raking mechanism can disperse the fermented mash to facilitate subsequent spreading. Furthermore, the spreading mechanism can scrape the discharged mash flat. In this way, spreading is accomplished with a single device. This solves the problem that the existing steaming equipment has a relatively complex structure and requires two or more devices to be used in conjunction to complete the spreading of the mash, making it impossible to spread the mash at a single feeding or spreading end.

[0032] Meanwhile, in a specific implementation, this embodiment provides a specific structure of a conveying mechanism, wherein the conveying mechanism includes a first drive motor 5, a first transmission sprocket 6, a transmission roller 7, and a transmission belt 8;

[0033] The first transmission sprocket 6 and transmission drum 7 are respectively located at both ends of the bottom of the frame 1;

[0034] The first drive motor 5 is located between the first transmission sprocket 6 and the transmission roller 7, and the power output end of the first drive motor 5 is connected to a gear, and the gear is connected to one end of the first transmission sprocket 6 through a transmission chain;

[0035] The other end of the first transmission sprocket 6 is connected to the transmission drum 7 via the transmission belt 8.

[0036] The purpose of this design is to provide the necessary power through the first drive motor so that the first transmission sprocket can rotate, causing the mash inside the holding chamber to move toward the outlet. At the same time, the transmission belt 8 connects the transmission roller 7 to the first transmission sprocket 6, so that the necessary output power can be provided from both the end of the holding chamber and the discharge end.

[0037] In this embodiment, a specific composition of a dispersing structure and a rake-loosening and spreading structure is provided respectively. The rake-loosening and dispersing and rake-loosening and spreading mechanism includes a second drive motor 9, a second drive sprocket 10, a dispersing structure 11, and a rake-loosening and spreading structure 13.

[0038] The second drive motor 9 is located between the first drive motor 5 and the transmission roller 7, and the power output end of the second drive motor 9 is connected to the second drive sprocket 10.

[0039] The second drive sprocket 10 is connected to the disintegration structure 11 via a transmission chain;

[0040] The disintegration structure 11 is located above the transmission drum 7;

[0041] The rake-loosening and spreading structure 13 is located below the drive roller 7;

[0042] Furthermore, the dispersing structure 11 is located at the discharge end of the material holding chamber 16 and there is a gap between it and the drive roller 7. The dispersing structure 11 includes a dispersing shaft and a dispersing rod. One end of the dispersing shaft is connected to the second drive sprocket 10 through a drive chain.

[0043] The dispersing rods are evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the dispersing shaft.

[0044] Meanwhile, the rake-loosening and spreading structure 13 is located at the discharge end of the material holding chamber 16. The rake-loosening and spreading structure 13 includes rake-loosening and spreading rods, which are evenly arranged, and one end of the rake-loosening and spreading rods is vertically connected to the discharge end of the material holding chamber 16.

[0045] The purpose of this design is to provide the necessary power to the dispersing structure through an additional second drive motor. The dispersing rod rotates under the drive of the second drive motor, which in turn drives the dispersing shaft on its outer circumference to rotate, thus dispersing the mash that is about to be discharged from one side of the feeding chamber and preventing it from piling up.

[0046] Meanwhile, after the mash is broken up, it needs to be spread out. The robotic arm drives the robotic arm connecting seat 3 to move back and forth, and the rake and spreading rod can spread the stacked mash out like a rake.

[0047] In this embodiment, protective covers 15 are provided on both sides of the frame 1, and a pneumatic opening and closing door structure 12 is provided inside the protective cover 15. The pneumatic opening and closing door structure 12 can contact the outer wall of the material inlet 2.

[0048] The purpose of this design is to protect the components located on one side of the frame through the protective cover. At the same time, when the material is unloaded, the outer wall of the material inlet will extend outward to facilitate unloading. After the unloading is completed, the pneumatic door structure can close the outer wall of the material inlet inward.

[0049] It should be noted that in this embodiment, a second sensing device 14 is also provided at the rear of the frame 1, and the position of the frame 1 is sensed by the second sensing device, so that it can return to the original position when laid flat. At the same time, in this embodiment, both the first sensing device and the second sensing device can be infrared sensors, and those skilled in the art can select the appropriate model according to actual needs.

[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are 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.
