Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bio-fermentation technology, and specifically relates to a bio-fermentation tank for preparing microbial agents. Background Technology

[0002] During microbial fermentation, it is necessary to keep the fermentation tank sealed to ensure that no air enters during fermentation, thereby avoiding contamination or affecting the fermentation process.

[0003] Existing bioreactors have good sealing at the feed end, but poor sealing at the discharge end, making them easy to open. If operator error causes the discharge end seal to be accidentally opened, outside air can enter, disrupting the microbial growth environment inside the fermenter and causing significant problems.

At this time, the included angle B of the first stirring rod is 33° and the included angle a is 115°, while the included angle e of the second stirring rod is 55° and the included angle f is 155°. At this time, the first stirring rod and the second stirring rod present a certain angular difference. Through the cooperation of the first stirring rod and the second stirring rod, it helps to change the flow direction of the liquid during the stirring process, so that the mixing process is not just a simple rotation, but also causes the liquid to circulate. The fluid obtains more shear force in this process, thereby improving the solubility and optimizing the reaction conditions or fermentation process of the material. Attached Figure Description

[0062] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a bio-fermentation tank 100 for preparing microbial inoculants, including a tank body 10 and a sealing cover 30 sealed and installed on the tank body 10. The sealing cover 30 is provided with a feeding pipe 302 with a control valve and an observation hole 301. The tank body 10 is provided with a stirring mechanism 20 for fully mixing the raw materials.

[0063] The outlet end of the tank 10 is connected to the discharge pipe 70, and the discharge end of the discharge pipe 70 has a discharge sealing cover 701, which is driven by the hydraulic drive mechanism 50.

[0064] It should be noted that by adding a discharge sealing cover 701 that is opened and closed by a hydraulically driven structure 50, the bio-fermentation tank will generate a certain amount of air pressure during the fermentation process. The air pressure will resist the discharge sealing cover 701, and at the same time, the hydraulically driven mechanism 50 will apply a certain pressure to the discharge sealing cover, thereby preventing the discharge sealing cover 701 from being opened.

[0065] Furthermore, the hydraulic drive mechanism 50 includes a pneumatic base 501, which is fixedly installed on the tank body 10 by fastening bolts. The pneumatic base 501 is connected to the lug of the hydraulic cylinder 503 through a first hinge connector 502. The hydraulic cylinder 503 is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.

[0066] Furthermore, the hydraulic drive mechanism 50 also includes a first connecting plate 504, which is provided in two sets and is mounted on the tank 10 by welding or other fixed connection methods;

[0067] The first connecting plate 504, which is away from the pneumatic base 501, is connected to the second connecting plate 506 via a connecting shaft 507.

[0068] Furthermore, the extended end of the hydraulic cylinder 503 is connected to the triangular plate 509 through the second hinge connector 508. The triangular plate 509 has a through hole for the connecting rod to pass through, and the connecting rod is mounted on two sets of the second connecting plates 506.

[0069] Furthermore, the other end of the triangular plate 509 is fixedly installed on the discharge sealing cover 701 by welding or fastening screws.

[0070] In this embodiment, the hydraulic cylinder 503 is activated, and its extended end 505 extends, thereby driving the triangular plate 509 through the second connecting plate 506 to close the discharge sealing cover 701.

[0071] When the bio-fermentation tank is completed and needs to be opened, simply start the hydraulic cylinder 503, which will drive the extended end of the hydraulic cylinder 503 to retract, and then drive the triangular plate 509 through the connecting plate 506 to open the discharge sealing cover 701.

[0072] In this embodiment, during the bio-fermentation process, the microorganisms inside the bio-fermentation tank produce gas, which creates a certain pressure inside the tank. This pressure forces the discharge sealing cover to open. In this invention, during bio-fermentation, the extension end 505 of the hydraulic cylinder 503 extends, and then the second connecting plate 506 drives the triangular plate 509 to close the discharge sealing cover 701, applying pressure to it and effectively preventing the cover from opening.

[0073] Furthermore, the tank 10 is a double-layered tank composed of inner and outer tanks.

[0074] Furthermore, the stirring mechanism 20 includes a servo motor 201, which is fixedly mounted on the sealing cover 30 by fastening screws. The drive end of the servo motor 201 passes through the sealing cover 30, extends into the tank 10, and is connected to the stirring shaft 202 through a bearing assembly.

[0075] In this embodiment, by starting the servo motor 201, the servo motor drives the stirring shaft 202 to rotate.

[0076] Furthermore, the stirring shaft 202 is provided with at least one set of connectors 203, and the connectors 203 and the stirring shaft 202 are detachably connected. The connectors 203 are provided with at least one set of first stirring rods 204.

[0077] Furthermore, the first stirring rod 204 and the connecting member 203 are integrally formed, and the first stirring rod 204 is evenly distributed along the circumference of the connecting member 203.

[0078] The first stirring rod 204 includes a first end face and a second end face;

[0079] The first end faces of two adjacent sets of first stirring rods 204 extend continuously and intersect to form an included angle B, which is 11°-35°.

[0080] The second end faces of two adjacent sets of first stirring rods 204 extend continuously and intersect to form an included angle α, which is 33°-135°; and the two sets of end faces of the two adjacent sets of first stirring rods 204 are arranged in a fan shape.

[0081] It should be noted that when the included angle B is 33° and the included angle a is 115°, the flow generated by the first stirring rod when it rotates helps to form strong axial and radial flows, promoting the circulation and mixing of the liquid.

[0082] Furthermore, a connector 206 is fixedly connected to the end of the stirring shaft 202 located away from the servo motor 201, and a rotating disk 207 is provided on the connector 206, and six sets of second stirring rods 205 integrated with it are provided on the rotating disk 207 along its circumference;

[0083] The second stirring rod 205 has a third end face and a fourth end face;

[0084] The third end faces of two adjacent sets of second stirring rods 205 extend continuously and intersect to form an included angle e, which is 35°-75°.

[0085] The fourth end faces of the two adjacent sets of second stirring rods 205 extend continuously and intersect to form an included angle f, which is 121°-175°; and the two sets of end faces of the two adjacent sets of second stirring rods 205 are arranged in a fan shape.

[0086] It should be noted that when the servo motor 201 is started, it drives the stirring shaft 202 to rotate. At this time, the included angle B of the first stirring rod is 33° and the included angle a is 115°.

[0087] When the included angle e of the second stirring rod is 55° and the included angle f is 155°, the first and second stirring rods exhibit a certain angular difference. The cooperation between the first and second stirring rods helps to change the flow direction of the liquid during stirring, making the mixing process not just simple rotation, but also causing liquid circulation. The fluid experiences more shear force during this process, thereby increasing solubility and optimizing the reaction conditions or fermentation process of the materials.

[0088] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not restrictive. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical solution of this utility model do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
