[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nutritional product fermentation technology, specifically to a fermentation device for nutritional product processing with a temperature control structure. Background Technology

[0002] Nutritional supplements are key to maintaining bodily functions, health, and physical fitness. As living standards improve, people are paying more and more attention to their physical health, leading to a gradual increase in demand for different types of nutritional supplements. To meet this growing demand, many laboratories are now researching and processing nutritional supplements.

[0003] Fermentation is required in the processing of nutritional products, necessitating the use of fermentation equipment. Existing fermentation equipment lacks control over the fermentation environment, resulting in slow fermentation rates. Furthermore, its temperature control structure is relatively simple, failing to effectively regulate temperature according to fermentation needs, which is detrimental to fermentation processing. Therefore, we propose a fermentation device for nutritional product processing with an integrated temperature control system. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing fermentation devices, such as uncontrollable fermentation environment leading to slow fermentation speed and simple temperature control structure that cannot effectively adjust temperature according to fermentation needs, thus hindering fermentation processing, this invention provides a fermentation device for nutritional product processing with a temperature control structure. This device features a simple structure and effectively controls temperature, providing favorable temperature conditions for fermentation, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A fermentation device for processing nutritional products with a temperature control structure includes an inner tank, the top of which is sealed by a sealing cap. An outer tank is coaxially fastened to the outside of the inner tank. Multiple ventilation mechanisms are equidistantly arranged on the outer tank. Each ventilation mechanism includes multiple equidistantly arranged first strip grooves. An arc-shaped baffle corresponding to the position of the ventilation mechanism is slidably connected to the inner side of the outer tank. Multiple second strip grooves are opened on the arc-shaped baffle, the number of which is equal to the number of the first strip grooves. An electric heating wire is fastened to the outer wall of the inner tank, and a fan is installed at the bottom of the outer tank. A pressure gauge, a temperature sensor, and a pressure relief valve are fastened to the top of the sealing cap. The detection ends of the pressure gauge, temperature sensor, and pressure relief valve extend into the interior of the inner tank. The device also includes a control box, in which a controller is installed. The pressure gauge, temperature sensor, pressure relief valve, and fan are all connected to the controller.

[0006] Optionally, the upper and lower ends of the arc-shaped baffle near the outer tank are both fitted with sliders, and the corresponding positions on the inner wall of the outer tank are fitted with slide rails that are connected to the sliders.

[0007] Optionally, a motor is fixed to the bottom of the outer tank, the output end of the motor extends into the outer tank and is rotatably connected to it, and a gear is fixed to the output end located in the outer tank. Multiple teeth are equidistantly connected to the side of the arc-shaped baffle close to the gear, and the gear meshes with the teeth.

[0008] Optionally, a feed pipe is tightly fitted at the outer end of the inner tank body, and a discharge pipe is tightly fitted at the bottom of the inner tank body. The discharge pipe passes through the outer tank body and is sealed to it.

[0009] Optionally, both the discharge pipe and the feed pipe are fitted with solenoid valves, which are connected to a solenoid valve controller.

[0010] Optionally, multiple support legs are circumferentially fastened to the bottom of the outer tank.

[0011] Optionally, the control box is secured to the outer tank via a mounting bracket.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, this invention controls the operation of the electric heating wire to stagger the positions of the second and first strip-shaped grooves. When the fan stops working, it can perform heat preservation treatment. During cooling treatment, the motor rotates, driving the arc-shaped baffle to align the positions of the second and first strip-shaped grooves. Simultaneously, the fan operates, supplying air into the cavity between the inner and outer tanks and discharging it through the second and first strip-shaped grooves, thus creating a circulation and effectively accelerating the cooling process. This invention not only has a simple structure but also effectively controls the temperature, providing favorable temperature conditions for fermentation. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to its embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a fermentation device for processing nutritional products with a temperature control structure, including an inner tank 5, the top of which is sealed by a sealing cap 1. An outer tank 9 is coaxially and tightly attached to the outside of the inner tank 5. A feed pipe 8 is tightly attached to the outer end of the inner tank 5, and a discharge pipe 15 is tightly attached to the bottom of the inner tank 5. The discharge pipe 15 passes through the outer tank 9. To ensure the stability of the connection between the outer tank 9 and the discharge pipe 15, a sealed connection is made between the outer tank 9 and the discharge pipe 15. Simultaneously, as... Figure 1 , 2 As shown, during use, solenoid valves 13 are fastened to both the discharge pipe 15 and the feed pipe 8, and multiple support legs 12 are fastened circumferentially at the bottom of the outer tank 9 to provide support.

[0021] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, multiple ventilation mechanisms are equidistantly arranged on the outer tank 9. Each ventilation mechanism includes multiple equidistantly arranged first strip grooves 6, and an arc-shaped baffle 17 corresponding to the position of the ventilation mechanism is slidably connected to the inner side of the outer tank 9. Multiple second strip grooves 19 are opened on the arc-shaped baffle 17, and the number of second strip grooves 19 is equal to the number of first strip grooves 6. In order to achieve stable sliding of the arc-shaped baffle 17 during use, sliders 18 are fastened to the upper and lower ends of the side of the arc-shaped baffle 17 close to the outer tank 9. A slide rail 22 connected to the slider 18 is fastened to the corresponding position on the inner wall of the outer tank 9.

[0022] Meanwhile, a motor 11 is fastened to the bottom of the outer tank 9. The output end of the motor 11 extends into the outer tank 9 and is rotatably connected to it. A gear 21 is fastened to the output end located inside the outer tank 9. Multiple teeth 20 are equidistantly connected to the side of the arc-shaped baffle 17 near the gear 21. The gear 21 and the teeth 20 are meshed. The motor 11 controls the gear 21 to rotate. Since the gear 21 and the teeth 20 are meshed, the arc-shaped baffle 17 can be driven to slide on the inner wall of the outer tank 9. During the sliding process, the relative position of the second strip groove 19 and the first strip groove 6 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the size of the opening formed between them.

[0023] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, in order to achieve temperature regulation inside the inner tank 5, an electric heating wire 14 is fastened to the outer wall of the inner tank 5, and a fan 16 is installed at the bottom of the outer tank 9. At the same time, a pressure gauge 2 for monitoring pressure and temperature, a temperature sensor 3, and a pressure relief valve 4 for releasing pressure inside the inner tank 5 are fastened to the top of the sealing cover 1. The detection ends of the pressure gauge 2, temperature sensor 3, and pressure relief valve 4 extend into the inner tank 5. When the pressure inside the inner tank 5 is too high, the pressure relief valve 4 is controlled to work, so that the pressure inside the inner tank 5 can be released quickly.

[0024] In summary, the fermentation device for processing nutritional products with a temperature control structure, when in use, also includes a control box 7, which contains a controller. The control box 7 is fastened to the outer tank 9 via a mounting bracket 10, and the pressure gauge 2, temperature sensor 3, pressure relief valve 4, fan 16, and solenoid valve 13 are all connected to the controller.

[0025] The raw materials to be fermented are transported to the inner tank 5 through the feed pipe 8. At the same time, the electric heating wire 14 is controlled to work according to the fermentation reaction temperature requirements to ensure the temperature inside the inner tank 5 is stable. When cooling is required, the motor 11 rotates to drive the arc-shaped baffle 17 to rotate, so that the second strip groove 19 and the first strip groove 6 are positioned accordingly. At the same time, the fan 16 is controlled to work to supply air into the cavity formed between the inner tank 5 and the outer tank 9, and the air is discharged through the second strip groove 19 and the first strip groove 6, thus forming a circulation and effectively accelerating the cooling speed. At the same time, when heat preservation is required, the positions of the second strip groove 19 and the first strip groove 6 are staggered, and the fan 16 is stopped. This utility model not only has a simple structure, but also effectively achieves temperature control, providing favorable temperature conditions for fermentation.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. 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.
