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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0023] A fermenter for easy discharge includes a bottom plate 1. A rotating structure 2 is provided on the top of the bottom plate 1. The rotating structure 2 includes a first fixed plate 21 and a second fixed plate 24. A first motor 22 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first fixed plate 21, and a first fixed block 23 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 22. A rotating groove 25 is formed on the surface of the second fixed plate 24. A sliding groove 26 is formed inside the rotating groove 25. A rotating rod 27 is rotatably connected inside the sliding groove 26. A spherical groove 28 is formed on one side of the rotating rod 27, and a ball bearing 29 is rotatably connected inside the spherical groove 28. A second fixed block 210 is fixedly connected to the other side of the rotating rod 27. A fermentation tank is provided on the top of the bottom plate 1. The fermentation tank body 3 includes a tank body 31. A locking groove 32 is provided on the top of the tank body 31. A cover 33 is movably connected to the top of the tank body 31. A sealing gasket 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover 33. A second motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the cover 33. A stirring rod 41 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 4. Four sets of mounting structures 5 are symmetrically arranged on the side surfaces of the tank body 31 and the cover 33. Each mounting structure 5 includes a first fixing seat 51 and a second fixing seat 54. A fixing rod 52 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first fixing seat 51. A moving screw 53 is slidably connected to the surface of the fixing rod 52. A sleeve 55 is rotatably connected inside the second fixing seat 54. A limiting ring 56 is fixedly connected to the outer side, and a handle 57 is fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve 55. The fermenter body 3 and the mounting structure 5 are provided. During installation, the sealing gasket 34 is aligned with the locking groove 32, and the sleeve 55 and the fixing rod 52 are aligned. The top cover 33 is lowered, and the top of the moving screw 53 first contacts the bottom of the sleeve 55. The handle 57 is rotated, and the limiting ring 56 restricts the sleeve 55, preventing it from moving up and down and allowing it to rotate only within the fixed seat 54. The moving screw 53 moves upward within the sleeve 55 and the handle 57 through the engagement of the threaded groove. When the bottom of the second groove on the surface of the moving screw 53 abuts against the surface of the fixing rod 52... When the sealing gasket 34 is inserted into the locking groove 32, the top cover 33 and the tank body 31 are installed together, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the top cover 33. After long-term use, it is easy to remove the stirring rod 41 for cleaning. A rotating structure 2 is set up. The motor 22 drives the fixing block 23 to rotate, which in turn makes the fermentation tank body 3 rotatable. The angle of the fermentation tank body 3 can be adjusted. After tilting the fermentation tank body 3 at a certain angle, it is easy to pour out the solid waste inside. It is more convenient to use. At the same time, the ball bearing 29 on one side of the fixing block 210 cooperates with the sliding groove 26 to increase the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating rod 27 in the rotating groove 25 and reduce the friction.

[0024] Furthermore, both motor 22 and motor 4 are electrically connected to an external power source, and are driven by the external power source.

[0025] Furthermore, fixing block 1 23 is fixedly connected to one side of tank body 31, fixing block 2 210 is fixedly connected to the other side of tank body 31, and ball bearing 29 is slidably connected in slide groove 26. The motor 22 drives fixing block 23 to rotate, thereby making the fermentation tank body 3 rotatable and the angle of fermentation tank body 3 can be adjusted. Through the cooperation between ball bearing 29 on one side of fixing block 2 210 and slide groove 26, the smoothness of rotation of rotating rod 27 in rotating groove 25 is increased and friction is reduced.

[0026] Furthermore, the sealing gasket 34 is inserted into the locking groove 32. The sealing gasket 34 is made of rubber. When installing the top cover 33 and the tank body 31, the sealing performance of the fermentation tank body 3 is increased by inserting the sealing gasket 34 into the locking groove 32. At the same time, the top of the top cover 33 and the bottom of the tank body 31 are respectively provided with a feed pipe and a discharge pipe. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail later.

[0027] Furthermore, the fixed base 51 is fixedly connected to the surface of the tank body 31, and the surface of the movable screw 53 is provided with a sliding groove 2. The movable screw 53 is slidably connected to the surface of the fixed rod 52 through the sliding groove 2, and the movable screw 53 can slide up and down on the surface of the fixed rod 52 through the sliding groove 2.

[0028] Furthermore, a circular groove is provided on the surface of the second fixed base 54, and the sleeve 55 is rotatably connected in the circular groove. A limit groove is provided in the circular groove, and a limit ring 56 is rotatably connected in the limit groove. The limit ring 56 restricts the sleeve 55 so that the sleeve 55 can only rotate within the second fixed base 54 and cannot move up and down, thus preventing the sleeve 55 from separating from the second fixed base 54.

[0029] Furthermore, the surfaces of the sleeve 55 and the handle 57 are provided with threaded grooves that match the threads on the surface of the movable screw 53. The movable screw 53 is rotatably connected in the threaded groove. When the top of the movable screw 53 contacts the bottom of the sleeve 55, the handle 57 is rotated, and the movable screw 53 moves upward within the sleeve 55 and the handle 57 through the cooperation of the threaded groove and the movable screw 53. When the bottom of the second sliding groove on the surface of the movable screw 53 abuts against the surface of the fixed rod 52, the top cover 33 and the tank body 31 come into contact and abut against each other, thereby completing the installation.

[0030] Working principle: During installation, align the sealing gasket 34 with the engaging groove 32, align the sleeve 55 with the fixing rod 52, and lower the cover top 33. The top of the moving screw 53 first contacts the bottom of the sleeve 55. Rotate the handle 57, and the limiting ring 56 restricts the sleeve 55, preventing it from moving up and down and allowing it to rotate only within the fixing seat 54. Through the cooperation of the threaded groove and the moving screw 53, the moving screw 53 moves upward within the sleeve 55 and the handle 57. When the bottom of the second sliding groove on the surface of the moving screw 53 abuts against the surface of the fixing rod 52, the sealing gasket 34 is inserted into the engaging groove 32, thereby... The top cover 33 and the tank body 31 are installed together. When disassembling, turn the handle 57 to move the moving screw 53 down in the sleeve 55 and the handle 57 until they separate. Then the top cover 33 can be removed to clean the stirring rod 41. The motor 22 drives the fixing block 23 to rotate, which makes the fermentation tank body 3 rotatable. The angle of the fermentation tank body 3 can be adjusted. After tilting the fermentation tank body 3 at a certain angle, it is easy to pour out the solid waste inside. At the same time, the ball bearing 29 on one side of the fixing block 210 cooperates with the slide groove 26 to increase the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating rod 27 in the rotating groove 25.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
