[0002] In the process of enzyme production, various raw materials need to be added to the reaction equipment in a certain proportion. However, the existing feeding method is usually done by workers manually adding the raw materials. The traditional feeding method is usually done by adding the raw materials manually in sequence, which is not only inefficient, but also very easy to cause the proportion to be out of balance due to human operation errors, which in turn leads to fermentation failure, resulting in waste of raw materials and extended production cycle.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an optional embodiment of this utility model provides a multi-channel synchronous raw material feeding tank. The multi-channel synchronous raw material feeding tank includes a raw material cylinder 1 and a discharge trough 2. A partition 3 is installed in the inner cavity of the raw material cylinder 1, and the partition 3 divides the raw material cylinder 1 into multiple chambers 4. The enzyme production raw materials outside can be put into each of the chambers 4. A discharge trough 2 is provided below the raw material cylinder 1. The number of discharge troughs 2 is the same as the number of chambers 4, and the discharge troughs 2 are connected to the chambers 4.

[0022] The raw material cylinder 1 is divided into multiple chambers 4 by the partition 3, which enables the classified storage of various enzyme production raw materials, avoids mixing reactions between different raw materials, and ensures the purity and characteristics of the raw materials. The multiple chambers 4 are connected to the corresponding number of discharge troughs 2, so that each raw material has an independent discharge channel.

[0023] A dispensing cylinder 5 is provided at the lower end of the discharge trough 2. The dispensing cylinder 5 is connected to the inner cavity of the discharge trough 2. A metering mechanism 6 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the dispensing cylinder 5. A connecting frame 7 is installed on the side wall of the metering mechanism 6. The output end of a first electrically controlled push rod 8 is installed at the upper end of the connecting frame 7. The first electrically controlled push rod 8 is installed on an external fixed frame and can drive the connecting frame 7 to move up and down.

[0024] In this embodiment of the invention, the raw materials from the discharge trough 2 are received by the mixing cylinder 5. The metering mechanism 6 is installed on the outside of the mixing cylinder 5. The metering mechanism 6 inside the mixing cylinder 5 can measure the raw materials entering the mixing cylinder 5. At the same time, the connecting frame 7 is moved up and down by the first electric control push rod 8, which can synchronously drive all the metering mechanisms 6 to adjust synchronously. This allows the quality of each raw material to be adjusted according to the quality of the enzyme main material, and ensures that the ratio between the raw materials does not change. This effectively reduces the occurrence of fermentation failure and avoids raw material waste and extended production cycle.

[0025] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the metering mechanism 6 includes a sleeve 61, a connecting rod 62, a piston block 63, a discharge hole 64, a support rod 65, a fixing ring 66, a second electrically controlled push rod 67, and a blocking block 68. The sleeve 61 is fitted onto the outside of the dispensing cylinder 5. One end of the connecting rod 62 is installed on the inner wall of the sleeve 61, and the other end of the connecting rod 62 is installed on the lower surface of the piston block 63. The piston block 63 can be inserted into the dispensing cylinder 5. A discharge hole 64 is opened at the center of the piston block 63. The support rod 65 is installed on the side wall of the connecting rod 62. A fixing ring 66 is installed on the outside of the support rod 65. A second electrically controlled push rod 67 is installed at the upper end of the fixing ring 66. A blocking block 68 is installed at the output end of the second electrically controlled push rod 67. The blocking block 68 can be inserted into the discharge hole 64.

[0026] In this embodiment, the positions of the piston blocks 63 in each mixing cylinder 5 are not the same and need to be determined according to the enzyme raw materials in the mixing cylinder 5 and the ratio between the raw materials. After the determination is completed, the connecting rod 62 is cut to a suitable length and welded to the lower end of the inner side of the sleeve 61. The sleeve 61 is sleeved with the mixing cylinder 5 and connected to the piston block 63 through the connecting rod 62. When the first electric control push rod 8 drives the metering mechanism 6 to move, the piston block 63 can slide up and down in the mixing cylinder 5. The closed space formed by the piston block 63 and the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 5 is used to meter the raw materials. The discharge hole 64 is used to discharge the raw materials. During metering, the discharge hole 64 is blocked by the block 68. During discharge, the second electric control push rod 67 can be controlled to retract, which will drive the block 68 to disengage from the discharge hole 64, thereby realizing the discharge of the raw materials in the mixing cylinder 5.

[0027] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the dispensing cylinder 5 is made of transparent material, and the outer surface of the dispensing cylinder 5 is also provided with distance scales for indicating the amount of dispensing (not shown in the figure).

[0028] In this embodiment, the mixing cylinder 5 is a transparent cylinder, and its outer side is also provided with a distance scale corresponding to the mixing ratio. When determining the position of the piston block 63, first insert the piston block 63 into the mixing cylinder 5, observe the position of the piston block 63, and make its upper edge correspond to the distance scale. Then, cut off the part of the connecting rod 62 that extends beyond the lower wall of the sleeve 61, and finally weld the connecting rod 62 to the inner wall of the sleeve 61.

[0029] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, a stirring mechanism 9 is provided above the raw material cylinder 1. The stirring mechanism 9 can be inserted into the chamber 4 to stir the enzyme production raw materials. The stirring mechanism 9 includes a crossbar 91, a motor 92 and a stirring rod 93. The crossbar 91 is welded and installed above the raw material cylinder 1. The motor 92 is installed on the upper wall of the crossbar 91. The motor 92 is electrically connected to an external power source. The output end of the motor 92 passes through the lower wall of the crossbar 91 and is installed with the stirring rod 93. The stirring rod 93 is inserted into the chamber 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, the stirring mechanism 9 can effectively prevent the raw materials for enzyme production from accumulating, clumping, or settling in the chamber 4, ensuring the uniformity of the raw materials. The motor 92 drives the stirring rod 93 to rotate, which fully stirs the raw materials in the chamber 4, making the components of the raw materials more uniformly mixed. This helps to improve the quality and efficiency of subsequent enzyme production and ensures the stable quality of each batch of enzyme products.

[0031] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the multi-channel raw material synchronous feeding tank also includes a solenoid valve 10. The solenoid valve 10 is installed on the lower wall of the discharge trough 2. The feed end and discharge end of the solenoid valve 10 are respectively connected to the chamber 4 and the batching cylinder 5. The solenoid valve 10 is electrically connected to an external control device.

[0032] In this embodiment, the solenoid valve 10 serves as a switch to control the flow of raw materials. It can be precisely controlled by an external control device. When a certain raw material needs to enter the batching cylinder 5, the external control device controls the solenoid valve 10 to open, and the raw material enters the batching cylinder 5 through the discharge chute 2. When the raw material fills the batching cylinder 5, it indicates that the quantitative measurement has been completed, and the solenoid valve 10 is controlled to close.

[0033] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the piston block 63 is provided with a wear-resistant rubber sealing ring 11, and the wear-resistant rubber sealing ring 11 is interference-fitted with the inner wall of the dispensing cylinder 5.

[0034] In this embodiment, the wear-resistant rubber sealing ring 11 can effectively improve the sealing between the piston block 63 and the inner wall of the dispensing cylinder 5, prevent the raw material from leaking from the gap between the piston block 63 and the inner wall of the dispensing cylinder 5 during the metering process, and ensure the accuracy of metering. At the same time, the wear-resistant rubber material has good wear resistance and can adapt to the working state of the piston block 63 moving up and down frequently in the dispensing cylinder 5, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment.

[0035] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the upper end of the block 68 is shaped like a frustum cone, forming a conical sealing structure with the inner hole of the discharge hole 64.

[0036] In this embodiment, the cone-shaped truncated cone of the plug 68 and the conical sealing structure formed by the inner hole of the discharge hole 64 can provide a better sealing effect. Compared with the planar seal, the conical seal can enhance the sealing performance as the pressure increases when subjected to pressure. At the same time, it can also prevent raw materials from remaining on the top of the plug 68 during discharge.

[0037] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the internal diameter of the discharge trough 2 decreases obliquely from the top to the bottom.

[0038] In this embodiment, the internal diameter of the discharge trough 2 decreases from top to bottom, which helps the raw materials to flow smoothly in the discharge trough and fall stably into the batching cylinder 5.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, various enzyme production raw materials are placed into the respective chambers 4 of the raw material cylinder 1. When a feeding operation is required, the external control device controls the solenoid valve 10 below each discharge chute 2 to open. The raw materials in the corresponding chamber 4 enter the mixing cylinder 5 through the discharge chute 2. After the mixing cylinder 5 is filled, the solenoid valve 10 can be closed. Since the position of the piston block 63 in each mixing cylinder 5 is set according to the ratio of each raw material for enzyme production, it can ensure that the ratio of raw material in each mixing cylinder 5 is consistent with the raw material ratio required for enzyme production. Then, the second electrically controlled push rod 67 can be controlled to retract, driving the block 68 to disengage from the discharge hole 64, thereby discharging the raw materials in the mixing cylinder 5.

[0040] If the quality of the main raw materials required for enzyme production changes, it is necessary to increase or decrease the quality of the raw materials accordingly. At this time, the first electronically controlled push rod 8 can be controlled to drive each quantitative mechanism 6 to move synchronously according to the set quantitative requirements, so as to ensure that the ratio between each raw material does not change, effectively reducing the occurrence of fermentation failure, avoiding raw material waste and extended production cycle. In addition, in the raw material cylinder 1, the motor 92 of the stirring mechanism 9 drives the stirring rod 93 to rotate continuously, stirring the raw materials in the chamber 4 to ensure the uniformity of the raw materials.

[0041] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
