[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Combined with appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2A cardamom sprout pickling device includes a support frame 1 and a cold-wall pickling tank 2. The support frame 1 has a U-shaped structure. The cold-wall pickling tank 2 is rotatably connected to the support frame 1. The cold-wall pickling tank 2 has an opening, and a baffle 3 is provided at the opening with a sealing hinge. The baffle 3 is located on the side wall of the cold-wall pickling tank 2 and has a handle 21. The cold-wall pickling tank 2 has a horizontally placed columnar structure and has a pickling chamber 4 inside. The pickling chamber 4 is inclined on both sides. One end of the cold-wall pickling tank 2 is rotatably connected to the support frame 1 through a rotating rod 6, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other side of the support frame 1 through a rotating cylinder 7.

[0022] The horizontal arrangement of the cylindrical cold-walled pickling tank 2 facilitates the rotation of the cold-walled pickling tank 2 inside the support 1 via the rotating cylinder 7 and rotating rod 6, thereby enabling the mixing of cardamom sprouts and auxiliary materials inside the cold-walled pickling tank 2; while the baffle 3 is located on the side wall to facilitate the loading and unloading of materials; and the cold-walled pickling tank 2 can be divided into a cooling layer, a heat insulation layer and a protective layer from the inside out, so that the pickled cardamom sprouts can maintain a better flavor.

[0023] Combined with appendix Figure 1 The support 1 is provided with a support component 9 that can stably support the cold wall marinating tank 2. The support component 9 includes an arc plate 17 connected to the inner side of the support 1. The arc plate 17 is coaxially arranged with the cold wall marinating tank 2. An inclined brace 18 is provided between the bottom end of the arc plate 17 and the support 1. Several rollers 19 are evenly distributed on the inner side of the arc plate 17. The side wall of the cold wall marinating tank 2 is provided with an annular groove 20, which cooperates with the rollers 19.

[0024] The diagonal brace 18 is designed to enhance the stability of the support for the arc plate 17. The arc plate 17, through the cooperation of the roller 19 and the annular groove 20, provides auxiliary support for the rotating cold wall marinating tank 2, preventing the rotating rod 6 and rotating cylinder 7 at the end of the cold wall marinating tank 2 from deforming after bearing gravity for a long time, thus affecting its use and extending the service life of the device.

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 The cold wall marinating tank 2 is equipped with a stirring assembly 5. The stirring assembly 5 includes a stirring shaft 10 that is coaxially arranged with the cold wall marinating tank 2 and rotatably passes through the rotating drum 7. One end of the stirring shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the cold wall marinating tank 2 and stirring rods 11 are respectively provided on both sides. The other end of the stirring rod 11 is provided with a scraper 12, which cooperates with the side wall of the marinating chamber 4.

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3The stirring assembly 5 and the rotating drum 7 are driven synchronously in opposite directions by the driving component 8. The driving component 8 includes a motor 13 connected to the outside of the support 1. The power output end of the motor 13 is provided with a first bevel gear 14. The other end of the stirring shaft 10 passes through the rotating drum 7 and is provided with a second bevel gear 15 at the end. The free end of the rotating drum 7 is provided with a third bevel gear 16. The third bevel gear 16 and the second bevel gear 15 respectively mesh with the first bevel gear 14.

[0027] By starting the motor 13, the motor 13 drives the rotating drum 7 and the stirring shaft 10 to rotate in opposite directions through the meshing of the first bevel gear 14, the third bevel gear 16 and the second bevel gear 15. The rotating drum 7 drives the cold wall pickling tank 2 to rotate the cardamom sprouts in the forward direction. At the same time, the stirring shaft 10 drives the stirring rod 11 to rotate in the reverse direction, so as to achieve efficient mixing of cardamom sprouts and auxiliary materials. The scraper 12 is set to prevent the cardamom sprouts from adhering to the side wall of the pickling chamber 4.
