Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of yogurt fermentation equipment, and in particular to a fermentation device for yogurt production. Background Technology

[0002] Yogurt, a popular dairy product, relies heavily on fermentation, a crucial step in its production process that determines product quality. However, efficiently and thoroughly draining the fermented yogurt after fermentation, and preventing it from sticking to the tank walls, remains a significant technical challenge. Currently, most yogurt fermentation equipment relies on gravity to discharge the fermented yogurt through a discharge pipe. However, due to the viscosity of yogurt, some residue often remains on the tank walls, making complete removal difficult. This residue not only reduces production efficiency but also increases cleaning difficulty and compromises hygiene and safety in subsequent production. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fermentation device for yogurt production that uses a ring scraper to scrape the inner wall of the tank during the discharge process, thereby preventing yogurt from sticking to the inner wall of the tank, greatly improving the discharge efficiency and the efficiency of cleaning the tank later.

[0019] During yogurt fermentation, the top cover is opened and the raw materials are poured into the tank for stirring and fermentation. After fermentation, the discharge pipe is opened to discharge the fermented yogurt. During the discharge process, the electric cylinder is activated to push the annular scraper downwards. The annular scraper scrapes the inside of the tank to prevent the yogurt from sticking to the inside of the tank.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: during the discharge process, the inner wall of the tank is scraped by the annular scraper, thereby preventing yogurt from sticking to the inner wall of the tank, greatly improving the discharge efficiency and the efficiency of cleaning the tank later.
