[0024] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this sterilization device for vinegar production, by incorporating an auxiliary cleaning mechanism, allows two impact rods to alternately impact the corresponding feed pipe and the outer wall of the heating sterilization tank during reciprocating motion. This intermittent impact on the feed pipe and the reaction vessel body of the heating sterilization tank provides auxiliary cleaning for both areas, allowing residual vinegar liquid to fall off the inner wall of the feed pipe, effectively solving the problem of material residue on the inner wall of the feed pipe. Furthermore, it helps remove vinegar mash residue from the inner wall of the heating sterilization tank, achieving the goal of easy maintenance, which is beneficial for the sterilization process in vinegar production and improves the quality of subsequent product processing.

[0035] The auxiliary cleaning mechanism 5 includes a fixed housing 51. A mounting pad 52 is fixed to the inner wall of one side of the fixed housing 51. A DC servo motor 53 is fixed to one side of the mounting pad 52. A reciprocating gear 54 is fixed to the outer side of the output shaft of the DC servo motor 53. A reciprocating rack 55 meshes with the outer side of the reciprocating gear 54. A connecting pad 56 is fixed to one end of the reciprocating rack 55. An impact rod 57 is fixed to one side of the connecting pad 56. A mounting plate 58 is fixed to the outer side of the reciprocating rack 55. A roller mounting sleeve 59 is fixed to the outer side of the mounting plate 58. A guide roller 510 is rotatably connected to the inside of the roller mounting sleeve 59 via a rotating shaft. A limiting connecting sleeve 511 is fixed to one inner wall of the fixed housing 51. When the mounting plate 58 is moving, the guide roller 510 plays a guiding and limiting role. The fixed housing 51 has a through hole inside, and the size of the through hole is adapted to the size of the impact rod 57, so that one end of the impact rod 57 can be moved to the outside of the fixed housing 51. The connecting pad 56 and the impact rod 57 are welded and fixed. The fixed housing 51 and the heating sterilization tank 1 are fixedly connected, which can ensure that the connection between the connecting pad 56 and the impact rod 57 is stable. The limiting connecting sleeve 511 has a guide groove inside, and the size of the guide groove is adapted to the guide roller 510.
[0036] The support mechanism 6 includes a support mounting sleeve 61, a support fixing pad 62 fixed to the bottom of the support mounting sleeve 61, an assembly groove 63 inside the support mounting sleeve 61, an assembly threaded post 64 fixed to the outside of the support leg 2, a positioning washer 65 movably sleeved on the outside of the assembly threaded post 64, and a positioning threaded sleeve 66 threadedly connected to the outside of the assembly threaded post 64.

The support mounting sleeve 61 has an installation groove inside that is adapted to the size of the support leg 2, and the bottom surface of the support leg 2 is in contact with the support fixing pad 62.
[0037] Working principle: After starting the DC servo motor 53, the reciprocating gear 54 rotates intermittently clockwise and counterclockwise. At this time, the reciprocating rack 55 moves back and forth, and the connecting pad 56 drives the impact rod 57 to move. When the two impact rods 57 move back and forth, they can alternately impact the corresponding feed pipe 4 and the outer wall of the heating sterilization tank 1, thereby alternately and intermittently impacting the feed pipe 4 and the reaction vessel body of the heating sterilization tank 1. This can assist in cleaning these two parts, allowing the vinegar residue on the inner wall of the feed pipe 4 to fall off, effectively solving the problem of material residue on the inner wall of the feed pipe 4. It also assists in the removal of vinegar mash residue on the inner wall of the heating sterilization tank 1, achieving the purpose of easy maintenance, which is conducive to the sterilization of vinegar production and improves the quality of subsequent product processing. By setting With a support mechanism 6, when the support leg 2 and the support mounting sleeve 61 are fixedly connected, the support mounting sleeve 61 is movably fitted onto the outside of the support leg 2. At this time, the assembly threaded post 64 is movably inserted into the groove of the support mounting sleeve 61. Then, the positioning washer 65 is movably fitted onto the outside of the assembly threaded post 64, and one side of the positioning washer 65 is movably inserted into the preset positioning groove of the support mounting sleeve 61. Finally, the positioning threaded sleeve 66 is threadedly connected to the assembly threaded post 64, which conveniently completes the fixing between the support leg 2 and the support mounting sleeve 61. This makes the assembly and replacement of the support mounting sleeve 61 and the support fixing pad 62 simple. After long-term use, the support fixing pad 62 is worn and deformed, which is conducive to the replacement and maintenance of the support fixing pad 62.
