Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, specifically to a raw material soaking and cleaning device for preparing rice sake. Background Technology

[0002] Soaking and cleaning the raw materials is a crucial step in the preparation of rice sake, as it directly affects the quality of the sake. However, existing methods for soaking and cleaning rice sake raw materials have many shortcomings.

[0003] Traditional methods of soaking and cleaning rice sake ingredients often involve relatively simple approaches, such as placing the ingredients directly into a water tank for soaking, followed by manual stirring or the use of simple tools to assist in cleaning. This method has limited effectiveness in removing impurities such as dust, sand, and rice husks from the surface of the ingredients. Some ingredients may not be thoroughly cleaned, resulting in residual impurities. Once these impurities are mixed into the subsequent sake brewing process, they will seriously affect the taste of the sake, making it rough and reducing its quality. Furthermore, it is difficult to effectively reduce the number of microorganisms on the surface of the ingredients.

[0004] For example, in a wheat grain washing and soaking device with announcement number CN221822139U, each air inlet coil is horizontally arranged around the lower outer side of the tank, and the air inlet coils are spaced apart from top to bottom along the height direction of the tank; multiple air vents are connected and arranged between the air inlet coils and the side of the tank; the air vents that cooperate with the same air inlet coil are radially distributed along the outer wall of the tank.

[0005] For example, in the soaking device with cleaning function for mulberry wine production, as disclosed in announcement number CN216039497U, a cleaning component is provided on the left side of the wine tank. A first hinge frame is fixedly installed on the left side of the wine tank near the top. A cover plate is movably installed on the top of the wine tank through the first hinge frame. A squeezing component is provided inside the wine tank, and a rotating component is also provided inside the wine tank. In use, the above-mentioned cleaning and soaking device for rice wine raw materials is simple in cleaning, but impurities are not thoroughly removed, microorganisms are only reduced to a limited extent, and pesticide and fertilizer residues are difficult to remove, affecting the taste, quality, and safety of the rice wine. However, there are other problems. In the current common process of soaking and cleaning rice wine raw materials, water resources are wasted quite seriously. Usually, a large amount of fresh water is used for a single soaking and cleaning, and the water is directly discharged after cleaning without any treatment or reuse. With the expansion of rice wine production scale, the demand for water resources in this cleaning method has increased dramatically, which not only increases production costs but also puts great pressure on local water resources. The direct discharge of a large amount of untreated cleaning water may also pollute the surrounding environment, which is not in line with the concept of sustainable development. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a raw material soaking and cleaning device for rice sake preparation, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the simple cleaning method of rice sake raw materials, incomplete removal of impurities, limited reduction of microorganisms, difficulty in removing pesticide and fertilizer residues, which affect the taste, quality and safety of sake, and the waste of a lot of water resources, increased cost and environmental pressure, and unfavorable to sustainable production.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a raw material soaking and cleaning device for preparing rice wine, comprising a support frame and a soaking tank fixedly installed on the upper left side of the support frame; an electric motor is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the support frame, and the electric motor is installed on the right side of the soaking tank, and a cleaning impeller is fixedly installed on the output end of the electric motor, and the cleaning impeller is installed inside the right side of the soaking tank; a soaking and cleaning mechanism is provided inside the soaking tank, and a scraper is rotatably installed on the upper left side of the soaking tank; a water pump is fixedly installed in the middle of the lower end of the support frame, and a water outlet pipe is installed through the upper end of the water pump, and the upper end of the water outlet pipe is installed above the rear end of the soaking tank; a water resource recycling mechanism is provided on the left side of the support frame, and a water suction pipe is installed through the left end of the water pump.

[0008] Furthermore, the soaking and cleaning mechanism includes a bevel gear fixedly installed at the output end of the motor, and a rotating shaft fixedly installed at the front end of the bevel gear, and the rotating shaft is rotatably installed at the front right end of the soaking tank.

[0009] Furthermore, a drive pulley is fixedly installed at the front end of the rotating shaft, and a driven pulley is fixedly installed at the front end of the scraper. The drive pulley and the rotating belt form a synchronous rotation structure through the driven pulley and the rotating belt. A discharge port is provided at the upper left end of the soaking tank.

[0010] Furthermore, the water resource recycling mechanism includes a water control tank at the left end of the support frame, which is located below the discharge port. A water suction pipe is located below the right end of the water control tank, and a discharge port is located above the left end of the water control tank.

[0011] Furthermore, a first filter layer is fixedly installed in the upper middle part of the water control tank, and the first filter layer is located below the discharge port, and the first filter layer is made of quartz sand material.

[0012] Furthermore, a second filter layer is fixedly installed in the middle of the water control tank, and the second filter layer is installed below the first filter layer, and the second filter layer is made of activated carbon material.

[0013] Furthermore, a third filter layer is fixedly installed in the lower middle of the water control tank, and the third filter layer is installed between the second filter layer and the water suction pipe, and the third filter layer is made of ceramic filter material.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. The raw materials are placed in the soaking tank for soaking. Then, the motor drives the cleaning impeller to rotate, causing the water inside the soaking tank to rotate with the cleaning impeller, thus cleaning the raw materials inside the soaking tank. Then, the motor drives the bevel gear to rotate, and the driven pulley drives the scraper to rotate, so that the cleaned raw materials are scraped out by the scraper and fall into the water control tank through the discharge port. This effectively removes impurities, improves the taste and quality of rice sake, reduces the risk of contamination by miscellaneous bacteria during the brewing process, and ensures the safety of sake.

[0016] Furthermore, the electric motor drives the impeller to create a circulating water flow in the soaking tank, which washes the raw materials evenly from all directions. This can more effectively remove impurities such as dust, sand, and rice husks from the surface of the raw materials, ensuring that the raw materials entering the subsequent brewing process are purer. This improves the taste and quality of the rice sake and can completely remove any pesticides, fertilizers, or other harmful substances that may remain on the surface of the raw materials, thus ensuring the safety of the rice sake from the source.

[0017] Furthermore, the rinsing effect of the circulating water on the surface of the raw materials can effectively reduce the number of microorganisms on the surface of the raw materials. In the process of rice sake brewing, microbial contamination is one of the key factors affecting product quality. This reduces the risk of contamination by miscellaneous bacteria, improves the stability of the rice sake brewing process and the product qualification rate. The contamination rate of miscellaneous bacteria is significantly reduced compared with traditional cleaning methods. Consumers who drink rice sake brewed from raw materials cleaned by this device do not need to worry about the potential health hazards of harmful substances.

[0018] 2. The raw materials that fall into the water control tank are controlled for water. The controlled water passes through the first filtration layer, where physical interception and adsorption trap impurities in the sand layer, making the water clear. Then, the second filtration layer effectively removes pigments from the water, making the water clearer and improving its taste, making it purer and odorless. The water pump draws water from the water control tank through the suction pipe and sends it into the soaking tank through the outlet pipe, reducing the extraction of fresh water resources and avoiding the consumption of a large amount of clean water.

[0019] Furthermore, it reduces the extraction of fresh water resources, which means a significant amount of water can be saved annually for large-scale rice sake producers, alleviating the water resource pressure faced by these companies. At the same time, it also helps to address the current global water shortage, aligns with the concept of sustainable development, improves water use efficiency, and eliminates the need for frequent replacement of large amounts of fresh water. This not only reduces water resource costs but also saves time and labor costs associated with frequent water replacement. Attached Figure Description
