Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of malt saccharification technology, specifically relating to a malt saccharification filter tank. Background Technology

[0002] Malt saccharification is the process of using the various hydrolytic enzymes naturally present in malt (or added enzyme preparations) under suitable conditions (temperature, pH, time, etc.) to break down insoluble high-molecular-weight substances (such as starch, protein, hemicellulose, etc.) in malt and auxiliary raw materials into soluble low-molecular-weight substances (such as sugars, dextrins, amino acids, peptides, etc.).

[0003] During the malt saccharification process, when malt is saccharified in a saccharification filter tank, the malt and wort need to be separated after saccharification. This separation is usually done through a filter screen. However, during separation, malt can easily adhere to the filter screen, affecting the separation efficiency. Moreover, continuous stirring is required during the saccharification process to ensure better saccharification. Existing stirring rods not only fail to stir thoroughly but also fail to tumble the malt, thus reducing the saccharification efficiency of the saccharification filter tank. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a malt saccharification filter tank to solve the above problems. This tank can scrape off the malt adhering to the filter screen and can also stir the malt more thoroughly, thereby improving the working efficiency of the saccharification filter tank.

[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] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment of the utility model provides a malt saccharification filter tank, including a filter tank body 1, a baffle 2 installed on the side wall of the filter tank body 1, an observation port 3 at the top of the filter tank body 1, and a stirring structure 4 installed on the filter tank body 1. The stirring structure 4 includes a motor 401, which is mounted at the top of the filter tank body 1. A fixed shaft 402 is rotatably connected inside the filter tank body 1, and the output end of the motor 401 is fixedly connected to the fixed shaft 402. A transmission rod 403 is fixedly connected to the fixed shaft 402, a stirring rod 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 403, and a support rod 405 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 403. Both the stirring rod 404 and the support rod 405 are fixedly connected to the guide plate 406. The bottom of the filter tank body 1 is detachably connected to the first filter screen 407 (the pore size of the first filter screen 407 is about 0.1-0.5). The bottom of the filter tank body 1 is detachably connected to the second filter screen 408 (the pore size of the second filter screen 408 is about 0.05-0.1).

[0026] When malt needs to be saccharified, the malt is placed inside the filter tank body 1 for saccharification. The motor 401 at the top of the filter tank body 1 is then activated, causing the transmission rod 403 to rotate via the fixed shaft 402. This, in turn, stirs the malt material inside the filter tank body 1 via the stirring rod 404 and support rod 405. The wavy stirring rod 404 ensures more thorough stirring of the malt, while the guide vanes 406 fixed to the stirring rod 404 and support rod 405 ensure more complete tumbling of the malt. The scraper 504 removes malt adhering to the filter screen, preventing malt buildup and ensuring the filtration efficiency of the filter tank body 1. The transmission rod 403, when rotating, can... The fixed sleeve 501 drives the rotating rod 502 to rotate. Through the gravity of the clamping plate 503 and the scraper 504, the rotating rod 502 can rotate downward on the fixed sleeve 501. When the scraper 504 comes into contact with the first filter screen 407 and the second filter screen 408 respectively, it can clean the filter screen. The external steam equipment is started, and the steam can enter the air guide pipe 602 through the air inlet 604. Therefore, it can enter the through groove 601 through multiple connecting pipes 603 to uniformly heat the inside of the filter tank body 1. When it is necessary to take out the saccharified product, the valve 705 installed on the fixed pipe 702 is opened. The product flows into the fixed pipe 702 through the liquid outlet 703, and then is discharged through the liquid pouring pipe 701 and the liquid outlet pipe 704.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, multiple stirring rods 404 are arranged in a linear relationship, and the stirring rods 404 have an overall wavy structure. Multiple support rods 405 are arranged in a linear relationship. The stirring rods 404 and support rods 405 are respectively located on both sides of the transmission rod 403. The guide vanes 406 are located at the bottom of the stirring rods 404, and multiple guide vanes 406 are arranged in a linear relationship. Multiple guide vanes 406 are arranged in a linear relationship from top to bottom on the support rods 405. The guide vanes 406 have an overall triangular shape, which can make the malt more thoroughly stirred.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a cleaning structure 5 is installed on the transmission rod 403. The cleaning structure 5 includes a fixed sleeve 501, which is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 403. A rotating rod 502 is rotatably connected to the fixed sleeve 501, and a clamping plate 503 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod 502. A scraper 504 is fixedly connected inside the clamping plate 503. The scraper 504 abuts against the first filter screen 407 and the second filter screen 408. When the scraper 504 abuts against the first filter screen 407 and the second filter screen 408 respectively, it can clean the filter screen.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 5As shown, a heating structure 6 is installed at the bottom of the filter tank body 1. The heating structure 6 includes a through groove 601. The through groove 601 is provided inside the bottom of the filter tank body 1. A gas guide pipe 602 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter tank body 1. The through groove 601 and the gas guide pipe 602 are connected by a connecting pipe 603. The bottom of the gas guide pipe 602 is provided with an air inlet 604, which is connected to an external steam device. The air enters into the through groove 601 through multiple connecting pipes 603 to uniformly heat the inside of the filter tank body 1.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a liquid outlet structure 7 is installed at the bottom of the filter tank body 1, and a liquid drain pipe 701 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter tank body 1.
