Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of probiotic cultivation technology, and in particular to a container for probiotic fermentation. Background Technology

[0002] Probiotics are a class of live microorganisms that colonize the human body and alter the composition of the gut microbiota in a specific area, thus benefiting the host. They promote nutrient absorption and maintain gut health by regulating the host's mucosal and systemic immune functions or by modulating the balance of gut microbiota, thereby producing single microorganisms or well-defined mixtures of microorganisms that contribute to health.

[0003] A probiotic fermentation and cultivation device with publication number CN221028355U is disclosed, which includes a fermentation container, a temperature control mechanism, and a stirring mechanism; the fermentation container has a support at its bottom and a feed pipe on its upper surface; the temperature control mechanism is located at the inner edge of the fermentation container; the stirring mechanism is located at the inner center of the fermentation container; and it also includes an auxiliary stirring mechanism, which is located between the lower inner end of the fermentation container and the lower end of the stirring mechanism.

[0004] Although this device, through the auxiliary stirring mechanism in conjunction with the stirring mechanism, can achieve uniform shearing and stirring in a circular motion, and through multi-directional stirring, the fermented probiotics are heated more evenly, the internal stirring column and slide will rub back and forth repeatedly during the up-and-down sliding motion. After prolonged use, this is prone to wear and tear. Furthermore, the influence of its up-and-down shearing force depends on the height of the auxiliary stirring mechanism, and the overall effect is not significant. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art where the internal stirring column and slide rub back and forth repeatedly, which easily leads to wear after long-term use, and the influence of its vertical shear force depends on the height of the auxiliary stirring mechanism, resulting in insufficient effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a container for probiotic fermentation, comprising a container tank, an observation window provided on the front end face of the container tank, a pressure relief port provided on the top of the container tank, a rotating sleeve rotatably connected inside the container tank, a fixed shaft fixedly connected inside the rotating sleeve, the upper end of the fixed shaft slidingly contacting the rotating sleeve, multiple stirring shafts rotatably connected to the side wall of the container tank, wave-shaped stirring blades fixedly connected to the stirring shafts, a driven bevel gear fixedly connected to the inner end of the stirring shaft located within the rotating sleeve, and a driving bevel gear fixedly connected to the fixed shaft at a position corresponding to the driven bevel gear, the driving bevel gear meshing with the driven bevel gear at the same height. The container is connected to a drive motor mounted on its top. The output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the rotating sleeve. The driven bevel gear and the driving bevel gear are in a sealed environment with good lubrication and low wear. The drive motor can drive the rotating sleeve to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating sleeve, the driven bevel gear will rotate around the driving bevel gear, thereby driving the stirring shaft to rotate. The stirring shaft, together with the stirring blades, can perform stirring. At this time, the stirring shaft rotates horizontally through the rotating sleeve and also rotates vertically through the cooperation of the driven bevel gear and the driving bevel gear, which can achieve multi-directional uniform stirring. Both horizontal and vertical stirring are sufficient, resulting in better stirring effect.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a sliding frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the container, and the lower end of the rotating sleeve is slidably connected to the sliding frame, which serves to limit the rotation of the lower end of the rotating sleeve.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, three evenly distributed heating plates are installed at the bottom of the container. By setting the heating plates, the inside of the device can be heated, and the internal temperature of the container can be controlled.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the upper side wall of the container is equipped with two symmetrically distributed output ports, which can be connected to external probiotic mother liquor output pipes and culture medium input pipes to facilitate the input of culture liquid into the container.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, an output pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the container, and a control valve is installed inside the output pipe. By setting the output pipe in conjunction with the control valve, it is convenient to output the fermented probiotics for subsequent processing.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the upper part of the container, and a temperature sensor is installed on the mounting bracket. By setting the temperature sensor, the temperature inside the container can be monitored to ensure that the probiotics are at a suitable fermentation temperature.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a mounting block is fixedly installed at the front end of the container, and a control screen is installed on the end face of the mounting block. The control screen is electrically connected to the heating plate, temperature sensor and drive motor, which facilitates the control of various electrical components in the device.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the container is fixedly connected to three evenly distributed support legs, and the bottom of each support leg is fixedly connected to a support pad. The support legs and the support pads work together to support the device.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] In this invention, the stirring shaft rotates horizontally via a rotating sleeve and vertically via the engagement of a driven bevel gear and a driving bevel gear, enabling multi-directional uniform stirring. Both horizontal and vertical stirring are sufficiently effective, resulting in a better stirring effect. Attached Figure Description

A drive motor 3 is installed at the top, and the output shaft of the drive motor 3 is connected to the rotating sleeve 11. The driven bevel gear 18 and the driving bevel gear 19 are in a sealed environment with good lubrication and less wear. The drive motor 3 can drive the rotating sleeve 11 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating sleeve 11, the driven bevel gear 18 will rotate around the driving bevel gear 19, thereby driving the stirring shaft 12 to rotate. The stirring shaft 12, together with the stirring blade 13, can perform stirring. At this time, the stirring shaft 12 rotates horizontally through the rotating sleeve 11 and also rotates vertically through the cooperation of the driven bevel gear 18 and the driving bevel gear 19, which can achieve multi-directional uniform stirring. Both horizontal and vertical stirring are sufficient, and the stirring effect is better.

[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a sliding frame 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the container 1, and the lower end of the rotating sleeve 11 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 17, which serves to limit the rotation of the lower end of the rotating sleeve 11.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, three evenly distributed heating plates 14 are installed inside the bottom of the container 1. By setting the heating plates 14, the inside of the device can be heated and the internal temperature of the container 1 can be controlled.

[0027] like Figure 1-5As shown, two symmetrically distributed output ports 9 are installed on the upper side wall of the container 1. The output ports 9 can be connected to the external probiotic mother liquor output pipe and the culture medium input pipe to facilitate the input of culture liquid into the container 1.

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an output pipe 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the container 1, and a control valve 8 is installed inside the output pipe 7.

[0032] Working principle: During probiotic fermentation, the output interface 9 connects to the external probiotic mother liquor output pipe and culture medium input pipe, inputting the culture liquid into the container tank 1. The heating plate 14 heats the inside of the device, controlling the internal temperature of the container tank 1. During the heating process, the culture liquid in 1 is stirred to make its internal temperature and bacterial distribution more uniform. During stirring, the drive motor 3 drives the rotating sleeve 11 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating sleeve 11, the driven bevel gear 18 rotates around the driving bevel gear 19, thereby driving the stirring shaft 12 to rotate. The stirring shaft 12, in conjunction with the stirring blade 13, can perform stirring. At this time, the stirring shaft 12 rotates horizontally through the rotating sleeve 11 and also rotates vertically through the cooperation of the driven bevel gear 18 and the driving bevel gear 19, achieving multi-directional uniform stirring. Both horizontal and vertical stirring are sufficient, resulting in better stirring effect.
