Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermented grain processing technology, and in particular to a mobile fermented grain loosening mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In industries such as liquor brewing, the processing of fermented mash is a crucial step, as its looseness directly affects the fermentation effect and subsequent production quality. A mobile fermented mash loosening mechanism has emerged to address this need. It can conveniently loosen fermented mash in different locations, effectively improving the flexibility and efficiency of production. This is of great significance for ensuring the smooth progress of the production process and improving product quality.
[0003] Existing grain loosening machinery mostly adopts a fixed structure, using simple stirring blades to stir the grains in a fixed container. The technical principle is to use a motor to drive the blades to rotate, relying on the mechanical force between the blades and the grains to disperse them.
[0004] However, existing technologies have the problem of effectively handling clumps of fermented mash. Due to the limitations of the structure and loosening methods of traditional equipment, the stirring blades cannot completely break up severely clumped mash, resulting in unevenly loose mash. This not only affects the full contact between microorganisms and mash during fermentation, reducing fermentation efficiency, but also requires secondary manual processing, increasing labor intensity and production costs, and seriously restricting the improvement of production efficiency. Therefore, a mobile mash loosening mechanism is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

One end of each of the two material turning and loosening shafts is rotatably connected to one side of the inner wall of the storage hopper, and the other end of each of the two material turning and loosening shafts is fixedly connected to a drive wheel. The drive wheel is located on one side of the outer wall of the storage hopper. A drive motor is fixedly connected inside the frame, and a driven wheel is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor. Both the drive wheel and the driven wheel are fitted with belts on their outer walls.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides an embodiment of a mobile lees loosening mechanism, comprising a frame 1, which is a basic support structure. The frame 1 is welded from rectangular steel pipes and is used to support and fix other components. A storage hopper 2 is bolted to the top of the frame 1. The storage hopper 2 has an inverted conical structure with a top opening larger than the bottom opening. It is used to store the lees to be loosened and guide the lees to flow to the loosening components.
[0029] The loosening components inside the storage hopper 2 include a turning and loosening mechanism and a dispersing mechanism. The dispersing mechanism is located below the turning and loosening mechanism. The turning and loosening mechanism is based on two turning and loosening shafts 8 as core components. The turning and loosening shafts 8 are symmetrically distributed inside the storage hopper 2. One end of the two turning and loosening shafts 8 is rotatably connected to one side of the inner wall of the storage hopper 2 through bearings, and the other end is fixedly connected to a drive wheel 9 through a flat key. The drive wheel 9 is used to transmit power. A drive motor 11 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1 through bolts. The output end of the drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to a driven wheel 10 through a coupling. The drive motor 11 is existing technology and will not be described in detail in this article. The driven wheel 10 is made of the same material as the drive wheel 9. The outer walls of both the drive wheel 9 and the driven wheel 10 are fitted with V-belts 16 to transmit the power of the drive motor 11 to the turning and loosening shafts 8.
[0030] The dispersing mechanism uses a dispersing shaft 12 as its core component. One end of the dispersing shaft 12 is rotatably connected to one side of the inner wall of the storage hopper 2 via a bearing, and the other end is fixedly connected to a drive wheel 13 via a flat key. A drive motor 15 is bolted to the inside of the frame 1. The drive motor 15 is located opposite the dispersing shaft 12, and its output end is fixedly connected to a driven wheel 14 via a coupling. The drive motor 15 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The driven wheel 14 is made of the same material as the drive wheel 13. Both the drive wheel 13 and the driven wheel 14 are fitted with V-belts 16 on their outer walls to transmit the power of the drive motor 15 to the dispersing shaft 12. A panel 3 is bolted to the top of the frame 1 and the storage hopper 2. The surface is flat and smooth, used for operation assistance, and provides a platform for workers to temporarily place tools and items. The side wall of the storage hopper 2 is fixedly connected to the baffle plate 7 by welding. The baffle plate 7 is used to prevent the mash from splashing out of the storage hopper 2 during the loosening process. The side wall of the frame 1 is fixedly connected to the left and right symmetrical support legs 4 by welding. The support legs 4 are used to support the frame 1 and ensure that the mechanism is stably placed on the work site. The moving component includes left and right symmetrical rollers 5. The tops of the two rollers 5 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 1 by bolts. They are located on the bottom of the frame 1 away from the support legs 4 and are used to realize the movement function of the mechanism. The side wall of the frame 1 is fixedly connected to the left and right symmetrical handles 6 by welding. The handles 6 are located above the support legs 4 on one side and are used by workers to push the mechanism to move.
[0031] Specifically, when using this mobile fermentation loosening mechanism, the worker holds the handles 6 with both hands, uses the ground as a support point, and applies a horizontal pushing force. The pushing force is transmitted to the frame 1 through the handles 6. The rollers 5 at the bottom of the frame 1 begin to rotate around their own axis under the action of the pushing force. Rolling friction is generated between the rollers 5 and the ground, which pushes the entire mechanism to move along the ground in the direction of the pushing force. The worker can deploy the mechanism in any work site by controlling the direction of the pushing force.
[0032] Once the mechanism reaches the designated position, the worker pours the mash into the top opening of the storage hopper 2. At this time, the drive motor 11 is started, and its output drives the driven wheel 10 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 10 transmits power to the drive wheel 9 through the V-belt 16 sleeved on its outer wall. Due to the friction between the V-belt 16 and the driven wheel 10 and drive wheel 9, the drive wheel 9 rotates synchronously with the driven wheel 10. The rotation of the drive wheel 9 drives the turning and loosening shaft 8 to rotate around its own axis through a flat key connection. During the rotation of the two turning and loosening shafts 8, the turning teeth on their surfaces turn and loosen the mash in the storage hopper 2. The turning teeth move in a circular motion with the turning and loosening shafts 8, applying shearing and compressing forces to the mash when they come into contact with it, thus dispersing the clumps of mash. At the same time, the drive motor 15 is started, and its output drives the driven wheel 14 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 14 transmits power to the drive wheel 13 via the triangular belt 16 sleeved on its outer wall. The drive wheel 13 rotates synchronously with the driven wheel 14. Its rotation drives the dispersing shaft 12 to rotate around its own axis via a key connection. During the rotation of the dispersing shaft 12, the dispersing blades on its surface further disperse the falling mash. The dispersing blades move in a circular motion with the dispersing shaft 12. When they come into contact with the mash, they apply impact and friction forces to the mash, making the mash particles further refined and evenly distributed. Under the synergistic action of the turning and loosening shaft 8 and the dispersing shaft 12, the mash gradually falls under the action of gravity. After the turning, loosening and dispersing operations, it is discharged from the bottom outlet of the storage hopper 2, thus achieving the effect of quickly and evenly dispersing the mash.
[0033] Working principle: When using this mobile mash loosening mechanism, the operator can push the frame 1 through the handle 6 to rotate the roller 5, thus deploying the mechanism in any work area. Then, the operator pours the mash into the storage hopper 2. At this time, the drive motor 11 drives the driven wheel 10 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 10 drives the two drive wheels 9 to rotate through the belt 16. The rotation of the drive wheels 9 then drives the two turning and loosening shafts 8 inside the storage hopper 2 to rotate, thereby turning and loosening the mash. At the same time, the drive motor 15 drives the driven wheel 14 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 14 drives the drive wheel 13 to rotate through the belt 16, thereby driving the dispersing shaft 12 to rotate, thereby dispersing the mash, thus achieving the effect of quickly and evenly dispersing the mash.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model 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 utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
