Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing, and in particular to a fermentation tank for brewing honeysuckle wine. Background Technology

[0002] Brewing is the process of producing alcoholic beverages with a certain concentration through microbial fermentation.

[0003] A search revealed that the Chinese patent "A Fermentation Tank for Sugarcane Wine Brewing" (authorization announcement number CN214881371U) discloses a fermentation tank for sugarcane wine brewing, comprising a tank body, a tank lid on the upper surface of the tank body, a fixed cylinder fixedly connected to the tank lid, an upper cover on the upper side of the fixed cylinder, a connecting rod fixedly connected to the lower side of the upper cover, an ultraviolet lamp on the side of the connecting rod, and an elastic sheet fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting rod; a detector is provided on the side wall of the tank body, a lower cover is fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the tank body, a filter screen is provided on the inner side of the lower cover, an upper cover is provided on the outer side of the lower cover, and a connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the lower side of the horizontal portion of the upper cover. In this invention, the connecting rod is pulled out by the outer top cover, which in turn moves the ultraviolet lamp and the elastic sheet outward. During the process, the ultraviolet lamp sterilizes and disinfects the inner wall of the fixed cylinder to prevent bacteria from being introduced into the fixed cylinder during pH adjustment. The elastic sheet not only plays a sealing role, but also scrapes off the attached substances on the inner wall of the fixed cylinder.

[0004] Although the aforementioned fermentation tank is equipped with a stirrer to agitate the raw materials, the limited number of stirrers and their limited range can easily lead to uneven mixing during actual use. This can result in material accumulation in some areas, uneven fermentation liquid, and problems affecting yeast activity and fermentation speed. Furthermore, after fermentation, residual fermentation products can remain in the fermentation tank, affecting its hygiene and impacting the quality of subsequent brewing operations.

[0005] Therefore, a fermentation tank for brewing honeysuckle wine is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fermentation tank for brewing honeysuckle wine in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. It improves the problem that the stirring structure in the fermentation tank cannot evenly mix the brewing raw materials and cannot clean the residue on the inner wall of the fermentation tank, which easily affects the hygiene quality of the fermentation tank.

[0007] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solution: a fermentation tank for brewing honeysuckle wine, comprising: a tank body and a cover plate disposed on the top thereof, wherein feed pipes are connected to both sides above the cover plate.

[0008] A mixing assembly disposed within a tank;

[0009] The mixing component includes a vertical rod disposed in the tank, and a scraper is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical rod by a connecting rod. The surface of the scraper contacts the inner wall of the tank, and a drive blade is disposed on the surface of the vertical rod.

[0010] Preferably, the mixing assembly further includes a motor fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate. The output end of the motor extends through the tank and is fixedly connected to the upright. A stirring rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the upright. By cooperating with the stirring rod, the brewing raw materials can be roughly mixed.

[0011] Preferably, the drive blade is fixed below the surface of the upright, and a sleeve is provided on the surface of the drive blade. The lower part of the sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the tank through the upright. The lower part of the sleeve is not in contact with the inner bottom of the tank. By cooperating with the drive blade, the drive blade can generate suction in the sleeve when it rotates with the upright, so that the raw material below the sleeve can be adsorbed by the sleeve and surge upward to form a vortex, which can effectively promote the mixing efficiency and quality of brewing raw materials and honeysuckle in the fermentation tank.

[0012] Preferably, the scraper has a bent design, and the curvature of the scraper when viewed from above is consistent with the diameter of the tank. With the above design, the scraper can scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the tank when it rotates with the upright, and at the same time, its tilt angle can be used to guide the scraped material to the discharge pipe at the bottom of the tank.

[0013] Preferably, the lower inner part of the tank is arc-shaped, and the guide end of the scraper corresponds to the arc-shaped part of the lower inner part of the tank.

[0014] Preferably, a discharge pipe is connected to the bottom of the tank, and an auger rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the lower end of the upright. The surface of the driving blade of the auger rod is close to the inner wall of the discharge pipe. By setting the auger rod, it is possible to prevent the accumulation and blockage of sediment or impurities in the tank during subsequent unified discharge, and maintain the smooth discharge of the discharge pipe.

[0015] Preferably, a guide rail is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the tank, and a horizontal plate is slidably connected in the guide rail. The horizontal plate is fixed above the surface of the upright. By setting the guide rail and the horizontal plate, the stability of the upright can be maintained when it rotates.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. By setting the stirring rod and drive blade in the mixing component, when mixing the raw materials in the fermentation tank, the stirring rod can first mix the raw materials, and the drive blade can rotate with the upright rod and generate suction in the sleeve, so that the raw materials below the sleeve can be adsorbed by the sleeve and surge upward to form a vortex, which can effectively promote the mixing efficiency and quality of brewing raw materials and honeysuckle in the fermentation tank.

[0018] 2. By setting up scrapers, the brewing raw materials on the inner wall of the tank can be scraped off and guided to the discharge pipe of the tank. At the same time, in conjunction with the auger rod at the lower end of the upright, it can also prevent the accumulation and blockage of sediment or impurities in the discharge pipe when they are discharged from the tank in a unified manner, thus maintaining the smooth discharge of the discharge pipe.

[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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] In practical implementation: such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a fermentation tank for brewing honeysuckle wine includes: a tank body 1 and a cover plate 4 disposed on top of it, with feed pipes 3 connected to both sides above the cover plate 4; and a mixing component 2 disposed in the tank body 1.

[0026] When staff need to brew honeysuckle, they first put the brewing raw materials and honeysuckle raw materials into tank 1 in a specified ratio, and then close and seal the cover 4.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the mixing component 2 includes a vertical rod 202 disposed in the tank 1. A scraper 206 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical rod 202 by a connecting rod. The surface of the scraper 206 contacts the inner wall of the tank 1. A drive blade 209 is disposed on the surface of the vertical rod 202. The mixing component 2 also includes a motor 201 fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate 4. The output end of the motor 201 passes through the tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the vertical rod 202. A stirring rod 204 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical rod 202.

[0028] Then the motor 201 is turned on, and the output end of the motor 201 drives the stirring rod 204 to rotate through the upright rod 202. When the stirring rod 204 rotates, it can evenly stir the brewing raw materials.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the drive blade 209 is fixed below the surface of the upright 202. A sleeve 205 is provided on the surface of the drive blade 209. The lower part of the sleeve 205 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the tank 1 through the upright 202. The lower part of the sleeve 205 is not in contact with the inner bottom of the tank 1.

[0030] When the upright rod 202 drives the stirring rod 204 to mix and stir the raw materials, the drive blade 209 at the lower end of the upright rod 202 will also rotate in the sleeve 205, so that the upper part of the sleeve 205 generates an upward surging force and the lower part of the sleeve 205 generates a suction force. At this time, the brewing raw materials will enter the sleeve 205 from the space between the sleeve 205 and the bottom of the tank 1 and surge upward, which can form a vortex channel, so that the raw materials in the tank 1 are adsorbed from the periphery to the center of the tank 1, then surge from the bottom of the center of the tank 1 to the top, and then diffuse to the periphery. This process is repeated, which can effectively ensure the uniform mixing of the brewing raw materials.

[0031] After mixing, staff can add starter culture or other materials needed for fermentation and wait for fermentation to begin.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the scraper 206 has a bent design, and the curvature of the scraper 206 when viewed from above is consistent with the diameter of the tank body 1; the inner lower part of the tank body 1 has an arc design, and the guide end of the scraper 206 corresponds to the arc part of the inner lower part of the tank body 1.

[0033] When the motor 201 drives the upright 202 to rotate, the scraper 206 will rotate on the inner wall of the tank 1 along with the upright 202 via the connecting rod. Since the scraper 206 is curved and its curvature is consistent with that of the tank 1, the scraper 206 can scrape off the sediment and residue on the inner wall of the tank 1 and guide it to the lower inner part of the tank 1 along the tilt angle of the scraper 206 for subsequent unified collection and discharge.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a discharge pipe is connected to the bottom of the tank body 1, and an auger rod 207 is fixedly connected to the surface of the lower end of the upright rod 202. The auger rod 207 is located in the discharge pipe.

[0035] After fermentation is complete, the discharge pipe is opened, and the brewed wine will be discharged out through the gap between the discharge pipe and the auger rod 207. The sediment will remain at the bottom of the tank 1. After the fluid is completely discharged, the motor 201 is turned on and drives the auger rod 207 to rotate. At this time, the auger rod 207 can smoothly discharge the sediment at the bottom of the tank 1, preventing the problem of sediment blockage and reduced discharge efficiency caused by traditional discharge methods.

[0036] It should be noted that when using the auger to discharge sediment, if there is a lot of sediment, personnel need to add water to tank 1 to dilute the sediment. This can prevent the problem of slow discharge or some distant parts not being discharged by the auger rod 207 due to excessive sediment.

[0037] A guide rail 208 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the tank 1, and a horizontal plate 203 is slidably connected in the guide rail 208. The horizontal plate 203 is fixed to the upper part of the surface of the upright 202.

[0038] Working Principle: When workers need to brew honeysuckle, the raw materials are first placed into tank 1 through feed pipe 3. Then, motor 201 is turned on, and the output end of motor 201 drives stirring rod 204 to rotate through upright rod 202. When stirring rod 204 rotates, it can evenly stir the brewing raw materials. At the same time, the drive blade 209 at the lower end of upright rod 202 will also rotate in sleeve 205, so that an upward surging force is generated at the top of sleeve 205 and a suction force is generated at the bottom of sleeve 205. At this time, the brewing raw materials will enter sleeve 205 from the space between sleeve 205 and the bottom of tank 1 and surge upward, forming a vortex channel, so that the raw materials in tank 1 are adsorbed from the periphery to the bottom. The liquid flows from the center of tank 1, then from below the center to the top, and then spreads outwards. This process is repeated to ensure the uniform mixing of the brewing raw materials. After mixing, the staff can add the fermentation agent or other materials required for fermentation and wait for fermentation to complete. Once fermentation is complete, the discharge pipe is opened, and the brewed liquid will be discharged outwards through the gap between the discharge pipe and the auger rod 207. The sediment will remain at the bottom of tank 1. After the fluid is completely discharged, the motor 201 is turned on and drives the auger rod 207 to rotate. At this time, the auger rod 207 can smoothly discharge the sediment at the bottom of tank 1, preventing the problems of sediment blockage and reduced discharge efficiency that are easily caused by traditional discharge methods.

[0039] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
