Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of algae fermentation devices, and in particular relates to an algae fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] Algal fermentation utilizes the growth and metabolic characteristics of algae under specific environments to produce a variety of high-value-added products, such as biofuels, nutritional supplements, and bioactive substances. Algae have advantages such as fast growth rate, high photosynthetic efficiency, and strong adaptability to the environment, and can accumulate a large amount of biomass in a relatively short period of time, providing a solid foundation for large-scale industrial production.

[0003] In the process of algal fermentation, in order to promote the growth and reproduction of algae and maintain their normal physiological functions, it is usually necessary to introduce corresponding gases into the fermentation tank. However, existing algal fermentation devices are often not conducive to the uniform distribution of gases in the fermentation tank, resulting in some areas of algae growing slowly due to insufficient gas supply, while other areas may have adverse effects due to excessive gas accumulation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an algae fermentation device. This device is equipped with a ventilation mechanism. Specifically, when gas needs to be introduced into the fermenter, the gas enters the filter box through the ventilation pipe. The filter unit filters out impurities and microorganisms to prevent them from affecting algae fermentation. The filtered gas then enters the gas distribution pipe through the connecting pipe and is evenly released into the algae liquid inside the fermenter through the aeration holes. This provides a suitable gaseous environment for algae growth, ensures the smooth progress of the fermentation process, effectively improves the efficiency and quality of algae fermentation, and solves the problem that existing algae fermentation devices often fail to achieve even gas distribution within the fermenter.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model relates to an algae fermentation device, comprising a fermentation tank, which is equipped with a ventilation mechanism and a disassembly mechanism.

A gas distribution pipe is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fermenter. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter box. The end of the connecting pipe away from the filter box extends into the interior of the fermenter and is fixedly connected to the gas distribution pipe. The connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the fermenter. Several aeration holes are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the gas distribution pipe. The disassembly mechanism includes a filter unit slidably connected to the inner wall of the filter box. The front side of the filter unit extends to the outside of the filter box.

[0008] Furthermore, a top cover is installed on the top of the fermentation tank, a handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top cover, and several buckles are installed on the outer wall of the fermentation tank.

[0009] Furthermore, a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fermentation tank, and a valve is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, two grooves are provided on the left and right inner walls of the filter box, and two protrusions are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the filter unit. Several of the protrusions extend into the interior of the corresponding grooves on the side away from the filter unit and slide to connect with the corresponding grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, a pull plate is fixedly connected to the front side of the filter unit, a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the rear side of the pull plate, a positioning block is fixedly connected to the rear side of the pull plate, and the rear side of the positioning block extends into the interior of the filter box and is slidably connected to the filter box.

[0012] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided on the top of the filter box, and a positioning pin is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a connecting piece is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning pin, and a spring is wound around the outer wall of the positioning pin.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By setting up a ventilation mechanism, when gas needs to be introduced into the fermenter, the gas enters the filter box through the ventilation pipe. The filter unit filters out impurities and microorganisms to prevent them from affecting algal fermentation. The filtered gas enters the gas distribution pipe through the connecting pipe and is evenly released into the algal liquid in the fermenter through the aeration holes, providing a suitable gas environment for algal growth, ensuring the smooth progress of the fermentation process, and effectively improving the efficiency and quality of algal fermentation.

[0017] 2. By setting up a disassembly mechanism, specifically when it is necessary to disassemble the filter unit inside the filter box, first loosen the bolts and remove them so that the fixing plate is no longer fixed. Then, the spring returns to its original position and contracts under its own elasticity, thereby driving the connecting piece and the positioning pin to disengage from the positioning block.

[0029] Please seeFigures 1-6 As shown, this utility model is an algae fermentation device, including a fermentation tank 1. The fermentation tank 1 is equipped with an aeration mechanism 2 and a disassembly mechanism 3. The aeration mechanism 2 includes a filter box 21 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fermentation tank 1. An aeration pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the left side of the filter box 21. A gas distribution pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. A connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter box 21. The end of the connecting pipe 24 away from the filter box 21 extends into the interior of the fermentation tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the gas distribution pipe 23. The connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the fermentation tank 1. Several aeration holes 25 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the gas distribution pipe 23. The disassembly mechanism 3 includes a filter unit 31 slidably connected to the inner wall of the filter box 21. The front side of the filter unit 31 extends into the filter box. Externally, a top cover 26 is installed on the top of the fermenter 1. A handle 27 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top cover 26. Several buckles 28 are installed on the outer wall of the fermenter 1. A discharge pipe 29 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fermenter 1. A valve 210 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe 29. By setting a ventilation mechanism 2, when it is necessary to introduce gas into the fermenter 1, the gas enters the filter box 21 through the ventilation pipe 22. The filter unit 31 filters impurities, microorganisms, etc., to prevent them from affecting algal fermentation. The filtered gas enters the gas distribution pipe 23 through the connecting pipe 24 and is evenly released into the algal liquid in the fermenter 1 through the aeration holes 25, providing a suitable gas environment for algal growth, ensuring the smooth progress of the fermentation process, and effectively improving the efficiency and quality of algal fermentation.

[0030] The filter box 21 has two grooves 32 on its left and right inner walls. The filter unit 31 has two protrusions 33 fixedly connected to its left and right sides. Several protrusions 33 extend from the side furthest from the filter unit 31 into the corresponding grooves 32 and slide in connection with them. A pull plate 34 is fixedly connected to the front of the filter unit 31. A sealing strip 35 is fixedly connected to the rear of the pull plate 34. A positioning block 36 is fixedly connected to the rear of the pull plate 34. The rear of the positioning block 36 extends into the filter box 21 and slides in connection with it. A groove 37 is provided on the top of the filter box 21. A positioning pin 38 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 37. A connecting piece 39 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning pin 38. A spring 310 is wound around the outer wall of the positioning pin 38. One end of the spring 310 is fixedly connected to the connecting piece 39, and the other end of the spring 310... The end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide 37. One end of the positioning pin 38 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 311, and the other end of the positioning pin 38 extends into the interior of the positioning block 36 and slides with the positioning block 36. The fixing plate 311 and the filter box 21 are threadedly connected by bolts 312. By setting the disassembly mechanism 3, when it is necessary to disassemble the filter unit 31 in the filter box 21, first loosen the bolts 312 and remove the bolts 312 so that the fixing plate 311 is not fixed. Then, the spring 310 returns to its original position and contracts under its own elasticity, thereby driving the connecting piece 39 and the positioning pin 38 to disengage from the positioning block 36. Finally, the filter unit 31 is pulled by the pull plate 34, so that the fermenter 1 can be disassembled and the filter unit 31 can be cleaned or replaced, thereby ensuring the stable passage of gas and ensuring a stable and sufficient gas environment for algae fermentation.

[0031] One specific application of this embodiment is as follows: Gas is introduced into the fermenter 1 through the vent pipe 22. The gas enters the filter box 21 through the vent pipe 22. In the filter box 21, the gas is filtered by the filter unit 31 to remove impurities, microorganisms, etc., preventing them from entering the fermenter 1 and adversely affecting algae fermentation. The filtered gas enters the fermenter 1 from the filter box 21 through the connecting pipe 24 and flows into the gas distribution pipe 23. Several aeration holes 25 on the gas distribution pipe 23 evenly release the gas into the fermenter 1. The algal liquid inside provides the necessary gaseous environment for algal growth and promotes the algal fermentation process. The top cover 26 of the fermentation tank 1 can prevent external debris from falling into the fermentation tank 1 and ensure the relative sealing of the fermentation environment. The top cover 26 can be easily opened or closed by the handle 27. Several buckles 28 on the outer wall of the fermentation tank 1 can be used to fix the top cover 26 to ensure that the top cover 26 is tightly connected to the fermentation tank 1. After the fermentation is completed, the discharge pipe 29 at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 can be opened by opening the valve 210 to discharge the fermented product from the fermentation tank 1.

[0032] The filter unit 31 is installed inside the filter box 21. The protrusions 33 on its left and right sides are slidably connected to the grooves 32 on the left and right inner walls of the filter box 21, respectively. This allows the filter unit 31 to slide back and forth inside the filter box 21 and also guides and limits the installation position of the filter unit 31. A pull plate 34 is installed on the front side of the filter unit 31, and a sealing strip 35 is installed on the rear side of the pull plate 34. The sealing strip 35 maintains the airtightness of the filter box 21 after the filter unit 31 is installed to prevent unfiltered air from leaking out. After the filter unit 31 is installed, the positioning block 36 is inserted into the filter box 21, and then the fixing plate 311 is pressed down. The fixing plate 311 drives the positioning pin 38 to move, so that the bottom end of the positioning pin 38 is inserted into the positioning block 36 to limit the positioning block 36, thereby preventing the pull plate 34 and the filter unit 31 from moving. When the positioning pin 38 moves, it drives the connecting piece 39 to move, thereby stretching the spring 310 through the connecting piece 39. Finally, the fixing plate 311 is fixed to the top of the filter box 21 by the bolt 312, so that the positioning pin 38 cannot move, thus completing the installation of the filter unit 31. When it is necessary to disassemble the filter unit 31 for cleaning, replacement, or other operations, first loosen the bolt 312 and remove it. After the bolt 312 is removed, the fixing plate 311 is no longer fixed, and the spring 310 returns to its original position and contracts under its own elasticity, thereby driving the connecting piece 39 to move. When the connecting piece 39 moves, it drives the positioning pin 38 to move. When the positioning pin 38 moves, it disengages from the positioning block 36, so that the positioning block 36 is no longer restricted. Then, the pull plate 34 is moved, and the filter unit 31 can be pulled out of the filter box 21 through the pull plate 34, thus disassembling the filter box 21.
