In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Among them, the terms "first position" and "second position" are two different positions.

[0032] In the description of the utility model, it needs to explain, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixed connection, also can be detachable connection, can be mechanical connection, also can be electrical connection, can be directly connected, also can be indirectly connected through intermediate medium, can be the communication inside two elements. For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] The utility model provides a kind of sprouting cylinder device easy to clean, it mainly includes cylinder shaft 23, sprouting cylinder 3, insert cover 31, limiting piece.

[0034] In Figure 1 The example, the cylinder shaft 23 is detachably connected to the stirring device 2 of brown rice sprouting machine by overturning assembly. Stirring assembly 2 includes main shaft 21 and the driving device 5 connected to main shaft 21, wherein the main shaft 21 is inserted into the two bearing seats of symmetrical crossbeam, two identical flower-shaped turntable are installed on the two sides of the main shaft 21 respectively, and the two flower-shaped turntables are also located in the inner side of rack 1, each flower-shaped turntable has six branch 22 distributed in central symmetry, and any branch of one side flower-shaped turntable and the branch 22 of the corresponding flower-shaped turntable on the other side can form a branch connection group, such as Figure 3 Example, six branch connection groups are formed between two flower-shaped turntables. Two branches of any branch connection group are inserted and fixed with cylinder shaft 23, and the sprouting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the cylinder shaft 23, each branch 22 has shaft hole 24 for fixing the cylinder shaft 23.

[0035] In Figure 1 , Figure 3In the example, the cylinder shaft 23 is provided as a square shaft, and the shaft hole 24 is a round hole, and the overturning assembly is a ring-shaped gasket 25. The ring-shaped gasket 25 is movably fitted in the shaft hole 24, and in this example, the cylinder shaft 23 is fixed in the square inner hole of the ring-shaped gasket 25. Similarly, since the cylinder shaft 23 is locked by the square inner hole, when the pattern turntable drives the germination cylinder 3 to rotate, since the square shaft is locked by the square inner hole of the pattern turntable, the germination cylinder 3 will not produce self-rotation around the cylinder shaft 23, and only produce circular motion of the pattern turntable driving the germination cylinder 3, and then the germination cylinder 3 will realize 360-degree overturning around the main shaft. Under the action of centrifugal force and gravity, the brown rice in the germination cylinder 3 will undergo large-range rotating movement, tumbling and uniform dispersion on the inner wall of each angle in the germination cylinder 3 during the rotating process, so as to achieve the effect of uniform stirring and ventilation.

[0036] Therefore, it can be distinguished that the traditional germination cylinder rotates around the cylinder shaft, and during the self-rotation process, no matter what angle the germination cylinder rotates to, the brown rice is always gathered at the bottom and is driven by the friction of the inner wall of the germination cylinder to perform small-range shaking. According to the example provided by the present application, the present application drives the germination cylinder 3 to perform circular motion by the main shaft 21, and the germination cylinder 3 is fixedly locked with the cylinder shaft 23 and cannot produce self-rotation, so the brown rice will perform large-range circular tumbling movement with the overturning of the germination cylinder 3, rather than being gathered at the bottom.

[0037] In addition, the annular gasket 25 can rotate in the shaft hole 24 in the unlocked state, the inner periphery of the shaft hole 24 and the outer periphery of the annular gasket 25 are provided with a set of symmetrically distributed notches, when the notches of the inner periphery of the shaft hole 24 correspond to the notches of the outer periphery of the annular gasket 25, a set of symmetrically distributed insertion holes can be formed at the joint of the shaft hole 24 and the annular gasket 25, which can be matched with a limiting piece, which is generally a plug; in this example, when the inner side of the germination cylinder 3 needs to be turned over for cleaning in the stopped state, the plug in the insertion hole can be removed first, then the annular gasket 25 is rotated to drive the cylinder shaft 23 and the germination cylinder 3 to rotate, and the plug can be installed again to fix the current state when it is rotated to 180 degrees, so that the germination cylinder 3 is turned over by 180 degrees in the stopped state, realizing the position conversion of the inner side and the outer side of the germination cylinder 3, facilitating the cleaning of the inner side dead angle of the germination cylinder 3, which can avoid the removal of the entire germination cylinder 3 from the pattern turntable during cleaning, saving work and cleaning efficiency, and eliminating unnecessary disassembly steps. Preferably, two positioning holes are arranged near the shaft hole 24 of each branch, a positioning shaft is arranged in the positioning hole, and a card 27 is mounted on the positioning shaft, the card 27 can cover at least a part of the edge of the annular gasket 25, so as to further reinforce the connection between the cylinder shaft 23 and the branch 22, and prevent the cylinder shaft from sliding out in the axial direction. The cooperation between the square shaft and the square inner hole of the annular gasket 25 and the cooperation between the card 27 and the positioning shaft can be further fixed by the clamping hoop 28.

[0038] In Figure 2 In this example, the strip-shaped opening is provided with a slot on both sides in the axial direction, the plug 31 is matched with the slot on both sides of the edge, one side of the plug 31 is provided with a handle part, and the plug 31 has a recessed part which is always arranged towards the inside of the germination cylinder 3, which can provide a certain inward structural stress, improve the tightness of the cooperation, prevent the plug from being deformed after being impacted by the brown rice, and effectively avoid leakage during stirring of the brown rice.

[0039] In addition, in some embodiments, the cylinder wall of the germination cylinder 3 is provided as a frame type wire mesh, which ensures the air permeability and water permeability.

[0040] In Figure 4In the example, the germination cylinder device can be assembled with a brown rice germination machine, the brown rice germination machine further comprises a rack 1, a spraying device 4 and a driving device 5. The rack 1 is an isosceles trapezoidal frame structure, has multiple groups of symmetrical cross beams and longitudinal beams for supporting, wherein a bearing seat is fixedly installed on each of the symmetrical cross beams at a middle position, and an extension table is connected to one side of the cross beam; additionally, four foot supports are arranged at the bottom of the rack 1 to enhance stability and reduce vibration during rotary stirring. The driving device 5 comprises a motor and a speed reducer and can drive two patterned rotating discs to rotate synchronously, can be installed on the extension table of the rack 1 and is convenient to operate. The spraying device 4 is arranged at the top of the rack 1 and is connected to the driving device 5, and multiple groups of nozzles are arranged on the spraying device 4 to spray water on the brown rice in the germination cylinder. Figure 1 In the example, the spraying device 4 comprises two spraying pipes arranged on the top of the rack, and multiple nozzles are arranged on each spraying pipe to spray downward.

[0041] Although the utility model has disclosed as above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the utility model, and any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, therefore the protection scope of the utility model should be defined by the claims.
