Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of golden prickly pear processing, specifically a golden prickly pear solid-liquid mixing fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] Golden prickly pear, also known as smooth-branched seedless prickly pear or seedless prickly pear, is an early-maturing, high-yielding fruit tree with a well-developed root system and vigorous growth. It can be processed into juice, wine, beverages, dried fruit, and jam. Fermentation equipment is often used in the processing of golden prickly pear.

[0003] However, current commercially available golden prickly pear fermentation devices typically involve feeding the golden prickly pear and its fermentation additives into a fermentation tank together for fermentation. After fermentation, the liquid and solid fermented materials are then extracted. When extracting the solid fermented material, the fermentation tank often needs to be tilted after the liquid fermented material is extracted. The fermentation tank is often quite large, making it difficult to extract the solid fermented material. Furthermore, the solid fermented material often contains a large amount of liquid fermented material, which is wasted during the extraction process. This affects the efficiency of the entire golden prickly pear fermentation process, slowing down the work. In addition, the maintenance of current fermentation tanks often requires disassembling the stirring mechanism and the tank lid, and then maintaining the tank lid, fermentation tank, and surrounding facilities, which is quite difficult. Therefore, a golden prickly pear solid-liquid mixed fermentation device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a solid-liquid mixing fermentation device for golden prickly pear to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-7This invention provides a technical solution for a solid-liquid fermentation device for *Pyracantha fortuneana*, comprising a base 8, a fermentation tank 1, and a lifting mechanism. The bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is mounted on the base 8 via a sliding mechanism. A liquid guide pipe 11 with a built-in valve is connected to the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. A sieve cage 4 with an open top and bottom is installed inside the fermentation tank 1. A bottom sieve 41 is detachably connected to the bottom of the sieve cage 4. Both the sieve cage 4 and the bottom sieve 41 are sieves that can separate the *Pyracantha fortuneana* fermented material into solid and liquid fermented materials. A detachable lid 2 is attached to the top of the fermentation tank 1. The lid 2 has a material inlet and a motor 3 is vertically mounted on its top. The output shaft 31 at the bottom of the motor 3 passes vertically through and extends into the inner cavity of the lid 2. The material inlet is used to feed golden prickly pear and its fermentation aids into the fermentation tank 1. The golden prickly pear and its fermentation aids fall into the sieve cage 4, and after fermentation, they form golden prickly pear fermented material. The bottom of the output shaft 31 is connected to a stirring frame 5 via a coupling 32. The stirring frame 5 extends into the sieve cage 4 and stirs the material. A support rod 6 is horizontally connected to the bottom end of the frame 5. Both ends of the support rod 6 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sieve cage 4. The support rod 6 consists of a horizontal rod 61 and several sets of vertical rods 62 spaced apart on the horizontal rod 61. Both ends of the horizontal rod 61 are integrally connected to the inner wall of the sieve cage 4. The aforementioned stirring frame 5 consists of a vertically positioned main shaft 51 and stirring rod assemblies arranged on the main shaft 51. At least one set of stirring rod assemblies is provided, and each set consists of a left stirring rod 52 horizontally connected to the left side of the main shaft 51, and... It consists of a right stirring rod 53 horizontally connected to the right side of the main shaft 51, and a left stirring rod 52 installed above the right stirring rod 53. The left stirring rod 52 and the right stirring rod 53 can rotate and stir the golden prickly pear fermentation mixture. The horizontal rod 61 and the vertical rod 62 mentioned above can rotate and stir the golden prickly pear fermentation mixture vertically and horizontally under the action of the rotation of the main shaft 51, so as to make the golden prickly pear fermentation mixture more uniform and thus improve the fermentation effect of the golden prickly pear solid-liquid mixture fermentation device.

[0027] When the motor 3 is running, the output shaft 31 drives the stirring frame 5, support rod 6 and sieve cage 4 to rotate together via the coupling 32. During the rotation of the stirring frame 5, support rod 6 and sieve cage 4, the golden prickly pear and its fermentation auxiliary materials will be rotated and stirred, so that the fermentation auxiliary materials and golden prickly pear are more evenly mixed together. After the fermentation of the golden prickly pear solid-liquid mixed fermentation device is completed, the liquid guide pipe 11 can quickly export the liquid fermentation material. The rotating stirring frame 5, support rod 6 and sieve cage 4 can quickly screen the golden prickly pear fermentation material. Under the action of rotational centrifugal force, the solid fermentation material and liquid fermentation material in the golden prickly pear fermentation material are quickly screened out. The solid fermentation material is always contained in the sieve cage 4, and the liquid fermentation material is screened out through the sieve cage 4 and collected at the bottom of the inner cavity of the fermentation tank 1.

[0028] It should be noted that the cross-sectional shape of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 and the cross-sectional shape of the bottom sieve 41 are both inverted "C" shape. The bottom sieve 41 can be connected to the bottom of the sieve cage 4 by a hinge, so that the bottom sieve 41 can be opened to facilitate the discharge of the solid fermented material of the golden prickly pear after fermentation in the sieve cage 4. The bottom surface of the bottom sieve 41 is close to but not attached to the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the fermentation tank 1, and the outer side wall of the sieve cage 4 is not attached to the inner side wall of the fermentation tank 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism is used to lift the can lid 2 and the sieve cage 4. The lifting mechanism includes a support 9 vertically installed on the left side of the top of the base 8, a lifting part installed on the support 9, and a lifting platform 10 located on the support 9 and driven to move up and down by the lifting part. The lifting platform 10 is horizontally placed above the can lid 2, and the motor 3 is fixed to the bottom of the lifting platform 10. The top of the support 9 has two sets of guide holes 92, and the top of the support 9 has an installation groove 91 between the two sets of guide holes 92. The lateral length of the support 9 does not exceed the lateral length of the lifting platform 10. The lifting part consists of a lifting cylinder 93 set in the groove cavity of the installation groove 91 and a guide column 94 extending vertically into the guide hole 92. The top of the guide column 94 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting platform 10, and the movable end of the lifting cylinder 93 is fixed to the bottom of the lifting platform 10. The base 8 mentioned above has a sliding groove 81 located on the right side of the support 9. The sliding mechanism consists of several sets of rollers 82 arranged at intervals at the bottom of the sliding groove 81, and a sliding table 7 placed in the sliding groove 81 and attached to the upper surface of the rollers 82. The several sets of rollers 82 are arranged at intervals along the length of the sliding groove 81. The bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is connected to the platform of the sliding table 7 through the bracket 71. The top view of the sliding table 7 is rectangular. The motor 3 adopts, but is not limited to, a Y121-J type motor. The motor 3 and its structural principle are well-known technologies in the market, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0030] It should be noted that the lifting mechanism operates as follows: The lid 2 is pre-separated from the fermentation tank 1 for easy opening. Then, the lifting cylinder 93 is activated, driving the lifting platform 10 up and down. The guide column 94 and guide hole 92 ensure balanced and stable movement of the lifting platform 10 to lift the lid 2 and sieve cage 4. The lifting cylinder 93 stops operating when the lifting platform 10 rises and removes the sieve cage 4 from the opening of the fermentation tank 1. During the lifting process, the sieve cage 4, along with the bottom sieve 41, performs gravity sieving of the *Pyracantha fortuneana* fermented material. This allows the liquid fermented material to fall freely and accumulate at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, while the solid fermented material remains on the sieve cage 4 and bottom sieve 41. This rapid solid-liquid separation of the *Pyracantha fortuneana* fermented material also facilitates maintenance of the sieve cage 4 and bottom sieve 41, making it easy to clean the solid fermented material. When it is time to collect and export the solid fermented material, simply keep the lid 2 in the lifted position. The fermenter 1 is moved away from directly below the sieve cage 4 using a sliding mechanism. A collection device, such as a collection trough, is placed below the sieve cage 4. The bottom sieve 41 is opened or removed. Under the action of gravity, the solid fermented material on the sieve cage 4 and the bottom sieve 41 is easily collected in the collection device. The principle of the sliding mechanism is as follows: when the tank cover 2 and the sieve cage 4 are lifted, the slide table 7 can be moved along the direction of the slide groove 81 on the roller 82 to move the fermenter 1 directly below the sieve cage 4 to the right side of the top of the base 8, which is convenient for maintenance of the inside of the fermenter 1. At this time, the lifting cylinder 93 can be controlled to move the lifted tank cover 2 and the sieve cage 4 down, which is convenient for maintenance of the sieve cage 4. The fermenter 1 is a commonly used fermentation device on the market. Its structure and principle are well-known technologies on the market. The facilities such as temperature and humidity sensors, heaters, fermentation liquid injection structures and vents installed in the fermenter 1 on the market are conventional and commonly used structures. The fermentation principle of the fermenter 1 is well-known technology, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The solid-liquid fermentation device for golden prickly pear is used in the following way: Before use, the tank cover 2 is tightly closed on the fermentation tank 1, the lifting cylinder 93 is not running, the lifting platform 10 is stationary, and the sliding platform 7 is moved to and close to the right side wall of the support platform 9. During use, the golden prickly pear and its fermentation auxiliary materials are fed into the sieve cage 4 through the material inlet for fermentation. During fermentation, the motor 3 drives the stirring rack 5, support rod 6, and sieve cage 4 to rotate together, ensuring uniform mixing of the golden prickly pear and its fermentation auxiliary materials. After fermentation, the solid fermented material remains on the sieve cage 4, while the liquid fermented material accumulates at the bottom of the inner cavity of the fermentation tank 1. The liquid fermented material is then discharged through the liquid guide pipe 11. During the discharge of the liquid fermented material, the motor 3 continues to run, generating centrifugal force in the sieve cage 4, thereby separating the solid and liquid fermented material within the sieve cage 4. When it is necessary to export the solid fermented material, stop motor 3 and start lifting cylinder 93 to lift tank lid 2 and sieve cage 4 together with lifting platform 10. When sieve cage 4 is lifted away from fermentation tank 1, stop lifting cylinder 93. At this time, the liquid fermented material mixed in with golden prickly pear fermented material in sieve cage 4 is freely screened and falls into fermentation tank 1, while the solid fermented material is contained in sieve cage 4. The fermentation tank 1 is moved away from below sieve cage 4 by the cooperation of sliding table 7 and roller 82, and a collection trough is placed below sieve cage 4. The solid fermented material of golden prickly pear is collected by the collection trough under the action of gravity when bottom sieve 41 is opened. During the separation of tank lid 2 from fermentation tank 1, maintenance can be performed on sieve cage 4 and the inside of fermentation tank 1. Lifting cylinder 93 adopts, but is not limited to, SMC type cylinder. Its structural principle is a well-known technology in the market, so it will not be described in detail here.
