[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1 to 4 The yeast fermentation equipment shown includes a fermentation tank 1. A sealing cover 11 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the fermentation tank 1. A cleaning mechanism is provided inside the sealing cover 11. The cleaning mechanism includes an equipment box 2, a drive motor 21, a water inlet pipe 23, a transmission pipe 3, a diversion box 35, a diversion pipe 36, a cleaning nozzle 37, a fixing plate 4, a mounting rod 41, a first stirring shaft 42, a second stirring shaft 44, and a scraper 46. A positioning sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the middle of the sealing cover 11. The transmission pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the positioning sleeve 12. A water inlet is provided inside the transmission pipe 3. The equipment box 2 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the upper surface of the sealing cover 11. The drive motor 21 is fixedly installed on the right side surface of the equipment box 2. A first bevel gear 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 21. A second bevel gear 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the transmission pipe 3. The first bevel gear 22 and the second bevel gear 32 are meshed together.

[0033] One end of the inlet pipe 23 is connected to the outlet of the water pump. The water pump draws water into the inlet pipe 23, which then transmits the water to the transmission pipe 3. The transmission pipe 3 then delivers the water through the diversion box 35 to the multi-group diversion pipe 36, and finally sprays the water out through multiple sets of cleaning nozzles 37 to clean the inside of the fermentation tank 1. During use, the drive motor 21 drives the transmission pipe 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the diversion box 35 and the diversion pipe 36 to rotate, which in turn drives the sprayed water to rotate inside the fermentation tank 1, thoroughly rinsing the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 and the surface of the stirring shaft. At the same time, the drive motor 21 drives the first stirring shaft 42, the second stirring shaft 44 and the scraper 46 to rotate inside the fermentation tank 1, stirring the water to wash the inside of the fermentation tank 1 and scrape the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1, improving the washing efficiency.

[0034] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 Positioning rings 31 are fixedly connected to both the upper and lower ends of the positioning sleeve 12 on the surface of the transmission pipe 3. A connecting block 33 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transmission pipe 3, and a snap-fit ​​groove 34 is formed on the upper surface of the connecting block 33. The lower end of the water inlet pipe 23 extends through the top wall of the equipment box 2 into its interior. A snap-fit ​​ring 24 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the water inlet pipe 23. The snap-fit ​​ring 24 is rotatably connected to the snap-fit ​​groove 34. The diversion box 35 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the transmission pipe 3. Multiple diversion pipes 36 are fixedly connected to the side of the diversion box 35. Multiple cleaning nozzles 37 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the diversion pipe 36.

[0035] Specifically, after the starter culture is fermented and removed, the water pump is started, drawing water into the inlet pipe 23. The inlet pipe 23 then transports the water through the transmission pipe 3 to the distribution box 35. The distribution box 35 then transports the water to the distribution pipe 36. The water then flows through multiple sets of cleaning nozzles 37 and sprays outward in a fan shape. The cleaning nozzles 37 are tilted, which facilitates the rinsing of the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. As the water flows outward through the cleaning nozzles 37, the output of the drive motor 21 drives the first bevel gear 22 to rotate. The first bevel gear 22 drives the second bevel gear 32 to rotate. The second bevel gear 32 drives the transmission pipe 3 to rotate inside the positioning sleeve 12. The rotation of the transmission pipe 3 simultaneously drives the distribution box 35 to rotate. The distribution box 35 drives the three distribution pipes 36 to rotate, which in turn drives the sprayed water to rotate, thus rinsing the interior of the fermentation tank 1 in all directions.

[0036] See Figure 3 and Figure 5The fixing plate 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the diversion box 35. Three sets of mounting rods 41 are fixedly connected to the side of the fixing plate 4. The first stirring shaft 42 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the lower surface of the mounting rod 41. Multiple sets of first stirring rods 43 are fixedly connected to the surface of the first stirring shaft 42. The second stirring shaft 44 is fixedly connected to the outer end position of the lower surface of the mounting rod 41. Multiple sets of second stirring rods 45 are fixedly connected to the surface of the second stirring shaft 44. The scraper 46 is fixedly connected to the end of the second stirring rod 45 away from the second stirring shaft 44. The side surface of the scraper 46 away from the second stirring rod 45 is in close contact with the side wall of the fermenter 1.

[0037] Meanwhile, during the rinsing process of the cleaning nozzle 37 inside the fermentation tank 1, the drive motor 21 drives the fixed plate 4 to rotate through the transmission pipe 3. The fixed plate 4 drives the three sets of mounting rods 41 to rotate. The mounting rods 41 drive the first stirring shaft 42 and the second stirring shaft 44 on the lower side to rotate. The first stirring shaft 42 and the second stirring shaft 44 drive the first stirring rod 43 and the second stirring rod 45 to rotate, respectively. At the same time, during the rotation of the second stirring rod 45, the scraper 46 rotates close to the side wall of the fermentation tank 1. During the rotation of the stirring shaft, stirring rod and scraper 46, the stirring shaft and stirring rod agitate the water, causing the water stored in the fermentation tank 1 to rotate, washing the side wall of the fermentation tank 1 and the stirring shaft and stirring rod themselves. At the same time, the scraper 46 scrapes the side wall of the fermentation tank 1, further improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 and improving the cleaning efficiency of the fermentation tank 1.

[0038] In addition, during the dough mixing process, the drive motor 21 drives the first mixing shaft 42, the first mixing rod 43, the second mixing shaft 44, the second mixing rod 45, and the scraper 46 to rotate, mixing the dough. At the same time, during the mixing process, water can be transported to the inside of the distribution pipe 36 through the transmission pipe 3, and the water can be dripped into the inside of the fermentation tank 1 through the cleaning nozzle 37, adding water to the inside of the fermentation tank 1. As the distribution pipe 36 and the cleaning nozzle 37 rotate synchronously, the water is evenly distributed inside the fermentation tank 1, effectively improving the mixing speed and efficiency of the dough.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Water is sprayed into the fermentation tank 1 through multiple sets of cleaning nozzles 37. At the same time, the drive motor 21 drives the cleaning nozzles 37, stirring shaft and scraper 46 to rotate, so as to thoroughly rinse the inside of the fermentation tank 1. The stirring shaft agitates the water flow to wash the surface and inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. The scraper 46 scrapes off the surface residue on the side wall of the fermentation tank 1. The inside of the fermentation tank 1 can be cleaned in time, which can effectively improve the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency of the fermentation tank 1.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
