[0024] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0026] This application discloses a probiotic production fermentation apparatus. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A probiotic production fermentation device includes a fermentation vessel 1, an inlet 2 installed on the top left side of the fermentation vessel 1, support legs 5 fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the fermentation vessel 1, an outlet 7 connected to the bottom of the fermentation vessel 1, a sealing valve 6 installed on the front side of the outlet 7, a mixing mechanism 3 installed on the top of the fermentation vessel 1, and a moving mechanism 4 installed on the front side of the fermentation vessel 1.

[0027] The mixing mechanism 3 includes a first motor 301. The bottom of the first motor 301 is fixedly connected to the top of the fermentation vessel 1. The output end of the first motor 301 is fixedly connected to a fixed shaft 303. A connecting sleeve 304 is movably connected to the surface of the fixed shaft 303. A stirring rod 302 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting sleeve 304. The number of stirring rods 302 is multiple and they are arranged in a ring around the surface of the connecting sleeve 304.

[0028] The moving mechanism 4 includes a second motor 401. The back side of the second motor 401 is fixedly connected to the front side of the fermentation vessel 1. The output end of the second motor 401 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 407. A gear 406 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting shaft 407. A toothed plate 402 is meshed with the left side of the surface of the gear 406. A connecting plate 403 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the toothed plate 402. A moving ring 404 is fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting plate 403. One side of the moving ring 404 is movably connected to the surface of the connecting sleeve 304.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Both the toothed plate 402 and the connecting plate 403 are movably connected to the inner cavity of the fermentation vessel 1. The surface of the supporting rod 405 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fermentation vessel 1. The supporting rod 405 provides support for the toothed plate 402 and the connecting plate 403, improves the stability of the toothed plate 402 and the connecting plate 403 when they move, and prevents the toothed plate 402 and the connecting plate 403 from shifting their positions.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 The connecting sleeve 304 has positioning grooves 306 on both the front and back sides of its inner cavity. A positioning plate 305 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the positioning groove 306. One side of the positioning plate 305 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed shaft 303. The positioning groove 306 allows the positioning plate 305 to move inside the connecting sleeve 304, thereby driving the connecting sleeve 304 to rotate synchronously during the rotation of the fixed shaft 303.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The surface of the stirring rod 302 is movably connected to a stirring paddle 307. There are multiple stirring paddles 307 arranged in multiple rows. By setting the stirring paddles 307, the mixing effect of the stirring rod 302 is increased, thereby further improving the mixing and contact of the raw materials.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 Both sides of the stirring paddle 307 are movably connected to limit rings 308. The inner cavity of the limit ring 308 is fixedly connected to the surface of the stirring rod 302. By setting the limit ring 308, the position of the stirring paddle 307 is limited to prevent the position of the stirring paddle 307 from shifting during rotation, which would affect the mixing efficiency.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 Movable grooves 11 are provided on both sides of the inner cavity of the feed inlet 2. A baffle 8 is inserted into the inner cavity of the movable groove 11. The surface of the baffle 8 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the feed inlet 2. The position of the baffle 8 can be positioned by the movable groove 11. At the same time, the interior of the feed inlet 2 can be sealed by the baffle 8. Furthermore, by opening the baffle 8 separately, the raw materials to be added later can be stored inside the feed inlet 2 and added when needed, reducing the possibility of airborne microorganisms entering the interior of the fermenter 1 and causing contamination.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 A connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the front side of the baffle 8, and a handle 9 is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting rod 10. The back side of the handle 9 is movably connected to the front side of the feed inlet 2. By setting the handle 9, the contact area with the baffle 8 is increased, which makes it easier to move the position of the baffle 8.

[0035] Working Principle: During the fermentation of probiotics, firstly, by grasping the connecting rod 10 and moving it forward, the connecting rod 10 moves the handle 9, which in turn moves the baffle 8, thus unsealing the inside of the feed inlet 2. Then, the raw materials can be fed into the fermentation vessel 1 through the feed inlet 2. After the raw materials are fed in, by pushing the connecting rod 10 backward, the connecting rod 10 moves the handle 9, which in turn moves the baffle 8, resealing the inside of the feed inlet 2. Subsequently, the first motor 301 drives the fixed shaft 303 to rotate, which in turn drives the positioning plate 305 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting sleeve 304 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring rod 302 to rotate, thus stirring the inside of the fermentation vessel 1. During the mixing of raw materials, the stirring paddle 307 rotates on the surface of the stirring rod 302 as the stirring rod 302 rotates, thereby further improving the mixing effect of the raw materials. At the same time, the second motor 401 drives the connecting shaft 407 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 406 to rotate. The gear 406 then moves the toothed plate 402, which in turn moves the connecting plate 403. The moving ring 404 then moves the connecting sleeve 304, which in turn moves the stirring rod 302. This allows the stirring rod 302 to move repeatedly inside the fermentation vessel 1, increasing the stirring range of the stirring rod 302, helping to optimize oxygen solubility and power consumption, and improving fermentation efficiency.

[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
