Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of baijiu brewing equipment, specifically a sampling device for stacked grain mash used in baijiu brewing. Background Technology
[0002] Baijiu is a unique type of liquor in my country and is one of the most typical distilled spirits in the world. Baijiu is primarily made from grains such as sorghum, using yeast as a saccharifying and fermenting agent. Through solid-state fermentation, solid-state distillation, and aging and blending processes, it ultimately yields an alcoholic beverage mainly composed of ethanol and water, containing various trace components. In the brewing process of baijiu with aroma types such as soy sauce aroma, the fermented grain mash after steaming and cooling needs to undergo a high-temperature stacking process. This high-temperature stacking process can capture and enrich microorganisms in the brewing environment. The enrichment and metabolism of microbial communities produce a variety of enzymes, flavor substances, and their precursors. At the same time, the high-temperature stacking process can form and accumulate special aroma substances through Maillard reactions, thus forming the special aroma characteristics of the liquor such as "soy sauce aroma" and "sesame aroma". Currently, during the high-temperature stacking process, it is necessary to sample and test the grain mash in a timely manner to verify the stacking effect. Traditional grain mash sampling usually uses manual breaking of the pile, which may lead to inaccurate sampling or affect the process effect, making it difficult to achieve precise sampling at a specific depth of stacked grain mash. Therefore, we propose a sampling device for stacked grain mash in baijiu brewing. Utility Model Content

[0019] 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.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a sampling device for stacked grain mash used in Baijiu brewing, including a sampling tube 3, a pressure plate 7 is provided in the mounting groove starting from the upper side of the outer arc surface of the sampling tube 3, and also includes a connecting rod 4 and a sampling head 5.
[0021] Linking rod 4: It includes a long rod 41 and a rotating bolt 43. The rotating bolt 43 is threaded into the threaded groove starting from the lower side of the right end of the pressure plate 7. The long rod 41 is rotatably connected to the middle of the outer arc surface of the rotating bolt 43. The linking rod 4 also includes a support rod 42. The support rod 42 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the outer arc surface of the long rod 41. The pressure plate 7 drives the long rod 41 to move upward through the rotating bolt 43. During the upward movement of the long rod 41, it will give the sampling components an upward pulling force through the support rod 42, thereby gradually reducing the distance between the sampling components and finally causing the two sampling components to contact and close.
[0022] Sampling head 5: Located outside the sampling tube 3, the sampling head 5 includes a sampling chamber conical blade 51, a collar 53, and screws 54. The collar 53 is located on the lower side of the outer arc surface of the sampling tube 3. The front and rear sides of the lower end of the collar 53 are respectively connected to the sampling chamber conical blade 51 by screws 54. The sampling head 5 also includes a rotating bolt 52 and a fixing rod 55. The fixing rods 55 are respectively located on the front and rear sides inside the sampling chamber conical blade 51. The rotating bolt 52 is threaded into the connecting thread groove on the right side of the outer arc surface of the sampling chamber conical blade 51. The upper ends of two longitudinally adjacent fixing rods 55 are respectively rotatably connected to a vertically adjacent rotating bolt. On the left and right sides of the outer arc surface of bolt 2 52, the lower ends of the support rods 42 are threaded to the middle of the outer arc surface of the vertically adjacent rotating bolt 2 52. As the long rod 41 moves downward, it will exert a downward thrust on the rotating bolt 2 52 through the support rods 42. The rotating bolt 2 52 exerts an upward pull on the sampling chamber conical blade 51 through the fixed rod 55, thereby gradually increasing the distance between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51, and finally causing the two sampling chamber conical blades 51 to separate. At this time, the grain mash will enter the interior of the sampling tube 3 through the gap between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51, thereby completing the precise sampling operation of grain mash at a specific depth.
[0023] It also includes a sampling handle 2, which is set on the lower side inside the mounting slot. The rear end of the frame handle 1 is rotatably connected to a pressure plate 7. The operator's fingers first grasp the sampling handle 2, and then the operator's palm presses the pressure plate 7. At this time, the pressure plate 7 drives the long rod 41 to move upward by rotating the bolt 43.
[0024] Wherein: the upper end of the sampling tube 3 is provided with a frame handle 1. At this time, the sampling tube 3 is pressed by the frame handle 1, and the sampling tube 3 drives the sampling chamber conical blade 51 to move downward, so that the sampling tube 3 is inserted into the interior of the stacked grain through the sampling chamber conical blade 51.
[0025] Among them, the sampling tube 3 has a scale line 6 on the right side of the outer arc surface, which allows the operator to determine the depth to which the sampling tube 3 is inserted into the piled grain.
[0026] The working principle of the sampling device for stacked grain mash used in baijiu brewing provided by this utility model is as follows: Before use, the two sampling chamber conical blades 51 are connected to the collar 53 by screws 54. Then, the longitudinally adjacent fixed rods 55 and the vertically adjacent support rod 42 are aligned front and rear. Then, the second rotating bolt 52 is rotated so that it passes through the longitudinally adjacent fixed rods 55 and the support rod 42. During the use of the sampling device for stacked grain mash used in baijiu brewing, the operator first holds the sampling handle 2 with their fingers, and then the operator's palm presses the pressure plate 7. At this time, the pressure plate 7 drives the long rod 41 to move upward by rotating the first rotating bolt 43. During the upward movement of the long rod 41, it will exert an upward pulling force on the second rotating bolt 52 through the support rod 42. The second rotating bolt 52 exerts a downward pushing force on the sampling chamber conical blades 51 through the fixed rods 55, thereby gradually reducing the distance between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51, and finally reducing the distance between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51. When the sampling chamber conical blade 51 closes, the sampling tube 3 is pressed down by the handle 1 on the frame. The sampling tube 3 moves the sampling chamber conical blade 51 downward, thus inserting the sampling tube 3 into the interior of the piled grain mash. After reaching the specified depth, the operator holds the sampling handle 2 with one hand and the pressure plate 7 with the other, and then pushes the pressure plate 7 upward. At this time, the pressure plate 7 drives the long rod 41 downward through the rotating bolt 43. During the downward movement, the long rod 41 will provide a downward push to the rotating bolt 52 through the support rod 42. The rotating bolt 52 will provide an upward pull to the sampling chamber conical blade 51 through the fixing rod 55, thereby gradually increasing the distance between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51, and finally causing the two sampling chamber conical blades 51 to separate. At this time, the grain mash will enter the interior of the sampling tube 3 through the gap between the two sampling chamber conical blades 51, thus completing the precise sampling operation of the grain mash at a specific depth.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
