Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to steaming rice husks, and in particular to a steaming pot and a movable steaming pot specifically for steaming rice husks for brewing. Background Technology

[0002] Additives primarily serve a filling function during fermentation; they do not participate in the fermentation process themselves. However, the polypentadiene and pectin contained in these additives can decompose into furfural and methanol through pyrolysis, while the tannins they contain can coagulate proteins, affecting fermentation. Furthermore, improper storage of additives can lead to mold growth, imparting a musty taste to the wine. Therefore, additives must be treated before use.

[0003] Rice husks are a byproduct of rice processing and a key ingredient in brewing Daqu liquor. They are highly absorbent, loosely textured, and require only a small amount to create a large fermentation interface, making them an excellent filler. Rice husks contain pentosans and pectin, which generate furfural and methanol during the brewing process. Before use, they must be steamed for 40-60 minutes. After steaming, the husks need to be transported to a cooling device. Because the husks are still very hot after steaming, manual unloading is not only labor-intensive but also poses a risk of burns to operators. Therefore, based on previous research, the inventor proposed a special movable steamer for steaming rice husks during brewing. Utility Model Content

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a special movable steamer for brewing rice husks includes a bottom pot 1 with a heating function and a steaming bucket. The cylindrical body 2 of the steaming bucket is placed on the bottom pot 1. In this embodiment, the bottom pot 1 is prior art, so how the bottom pot 1 is heated will not be described in detail. Preferably, the bottom pot 1 is circular, and the bottom of the steaming bucket is also circular. To facilitate the placement of the bottom pot 1 on the steaming bucket, a downward-extending skirt 25 is provided at the bottom of the cylindrical body 2. A groove 11 is provided on the bottom pot 1, and the skirt 25 is placed in the groove 11. Therefore, during rice husks steaming, after the steaming bucket is placed on the bottom pot 1, the skirt 25 and the groove 11 can form a simple sealing structure, allowing the steam emanating from the bottom pot 1 to enter the steaming bucket. Inside the steamer, the bran is steamed, which facilitates the steaming of the bran. In this embodiment, after steaming, the steamed bran needs to be transferred to a bran shell cooling device. Therefore, the bran shell needs to be removed from the steamer. In this embodiment, the steamer can be opened and closed. When it is necessary to remove the bran shell from the steamer, the steamer is in the open state, and the bran shell falls out of the steamer. During the steaming and transfer process, the steamer is in the closed state. Specifically, the steamer includes a cylindrical body 2 and an opening and closing mechanism 3. The cylindrical body 2 is composed of two symmetrical opening and closing bodies 21, and the bottom of the opening and closing body 21 is provided with several air holes. The size of the air holes is determined by the bran shell. It is necessary to ensure that the steam can smoothly enter the steamer, while preventing the bran shell from falling out of the air holes. Preferably, the opening and closing mechanism 3 is designed to be openable and closed. The sidewall of body 21 is a semi-circular plate, and the bottom of the opening and closing body 21 is a filter screen. The filter screen and the semi-circular plate can be connected by welding. At both ends of the top of the opening and closing body 21, upward-extending lugs 22 are provided. The lugs 22 have hinge holes, and are hinged to a rotating shaft 23 through corresponding hinge holes. The rotating shaft 23 is located above the cylinder 2. In this embodiment, the two ends of the rotating shaft 23 are hinge ends, and the diameter of the hinge ends is smaller than the diameter of the middle part of the rotating shaft 23. Therefore, there are limiting steps at both ends of the rotating shaft 23. The lugs 22 are provided with hinge portions extending towards another opening and closing body 21, and hinge holes are provided on the hinge portions. The lugs 22 pass through the hinge holes onto the rotating shaft 23. To prevent the lifting lug 22 from exiting the rotating shaft 23, a pin hole can be opened on the hinge end of the rotating shaft 23, and a limiting pin can be set on the pin hole to prevent the lifting lug 22 from exiting the rotating shaft 23. In this embodiment, a connecting block 24 is provided in the middle of the rotating shaft 23, and a threaded hole is opened on the connecting block 24. Specifically, the connecting block 24 is a square block, and one end of the rotating shaft 23 is detachably connected to the connecting block 24 by a thread. That is to say, the rotating shaft 23 is detachably connected to both ends of the connecting block 24 by a thread. Thus, the lifting lug 22 at one end can be threaded onto the corresponding rotating shaft 23 first, and then threaded onto the connecting block 24. Then the lifting lug 22 at the other end can be installed in the same way.

[0024] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the opening and closing mechanism 3 includes a support plate 31, on which a servo motor (not shown) is mounted. The power output end of the servo motor is connected to a screw 32. A threaded hole is formed in the middle of the rotating shaft 23, and the screw 32 engages with the threaded hole of the rotating shaft 23. A connecting rod 33 is hinged to the outer side of the opening and closing body 21, and the other end of the connecting rod 33 is hinged to the support plate 31. In use, when the servo motor operates, the screw 32 rotates. When the steamer opens, the screw 32 moves upward, causing the connecting rod 33 to flip outward, thereby causing the corresponding opening and closing body 21 to rotate around the rotating shaft 23, thus allowing the two... When the opening and closing body 21 separates, a material leakage port will be generated at the bottom of the steamer, from which the rice husks will leak out. After the steamer is opened and closed, the filter screen will tilt downwards to facilitate the leakage of rice husks. After the rice husks are unloaded, the servo motor will reset, and the screw 32 will move downwards relative to the connecting block 24. Under the action of the connecting rod 33, the opening and closing bodies 21 will move closer to each other and finally fit together, so that the two opening and closing bodies 21 form the steamer. In this embodiment, the steamer has only two states, namely, fully open and closed. Therefore, the working time of the servo motor can be set according to these two states to control the opening and closing of the steamer.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two connecting rods 33 are hinged to the outer side of the opening and closing body 21, and the two connecting rods 33 are arranged in parallel. Furthermore, on the axial projection plane, the two corresponding connecting rods 33 on the opening and closing body 21 coincide. On the projection plane of the bottom pot 1, the two connecting rods 33 located on the axial front side are collinear, and the two connecting rods 33 located on the axial rear side are collinear. The axis of the screw 32 coincides with the axis of the cylinder 2, so that the torque of the screw 32 can be better transmitted to the opening and closing body 21 during the up and down process, thereby facilitating the opening and closing of the opening and closing body 21.

[0026] The working process of this utility model is as follows: The steamer filled with rice husks is placed on the bottom pot 1. The bottom pot 1 is heated, and steam enters the steamer through the upper steam hole, thereby steaming the rice husks. After the rice husks are steamed, the steamer is transferred to the cooling equipment. The servo motor works, thereby driving the screw 32 to move upward, thereby opening the two opening and closing bodies 21 through the connecting rod 33 to unload the rice husks. Then the servo motor works again, and the screw 32 moves downward, thereby closing the two opening and closing bodies 21 to form the steamer, thus facilitating the loading of rice husks.

[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
