Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of liquor production, and in particular to a liquor production fermentation device. Background Technology
[0002] Baijiu is a distilled spirit made primarily from grains, using daqu, xiaoqu, bran koji, enzymes, and yeast as saccharification and fermentation agents. The process involves cooking, saccharification, fermentation, distillation, aging, and blending. During fermentation, fermentation tanks are frequently used.
[0003] When fermenting brewing raw materials in fermentation tanks, the ideal temperature range is 20℃-25℃. When the ambient temperature is below this range, the activity of microorganisms during fermentation decreases significantly, leading to a slowdown in the fermentation reaction rate. To ensure smooth fermentation, workers typically use heating devices to raise the temperature inside the fermentation tank. However, existing external heating methods suffer from two main drawbacks: firstly, the heat transfer delay between the heating device and the fermentation system makes precise temperature control difficult; secondly, workers cannot obtain dynamic temperature change data within the fermentation tank in a timely manner, resulting in a lag in temperature control. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the above-mentioned technologies.
[0005] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to provide a fermentation device for baijiu production that can achieve internal temperature control of the fermentation tank, ensuring that the internal temperature of the baijiu production fermentation tank is always kept at a suitable level, thereby ensuring its fermentation efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this utility model provides a fermentation device for producing baijiu (Chinese liquor), comprising: a fermentation tank, a stirring assembly, and a temperature control assembly. The stirring assembly is located inside the fermentation tank. The temperature control assembly includes a heating element, a base plate, a controller, a signal receiver, and a thermometer. The heating element is disposed between the inner and outer walls of the fermentation tank. The base plate is disposed on the outer wall of the fermentation tank. The controller and the signal receiver are respectively disposed on the base plate. The thermometer is disposed on the fermentation tank, and the guide post of the thermometer penetrates the upper wall of the fermentation tank.
[0007] In addition, the liquor production fermentation apparatus proposed above according to this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:
[0008] Specifically, the stirring assembly includes a driving component, a connecting shaft, and multiple sets of stirring shafts. The driving component is mounted on the fermenter. The connecting shaft passes through the upper wall of the fermenter and is connected to the rotating shaft of the driving component. The multiple sets of stirring shafts are respectively mounted on the outer wall of the connecting shaft.
[0009] Specifically, the fermenter has handles on its outer wall.
[0010] Specifically, the upper wall of the fermenter is equipped with a feeding pipe, and the other end of the feeding pipe is equipped with a pipe cap.
[0011] Specifically, the bottom wall of the fermentation tank is equipped with support legs.
[0012] Specifically, a discharge pipe is installed on the bottom wall of the fermentation tank; a valve is installed on the discharge pipe.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: Through the temperature control component, the internal temperature of the fermentation tube can be adjusted in real time, ensuring that the internal temperature of the fermentation tank for baijiu production is maintained within a suitable range. It can automatically heat according to the real-time thermal changes during fermentation, allowing the yeast and mold microorganisms in baijiu fermentation to maintain optimal biological activity and enabling efficient enzymatic reactions. This fundamentally guarantees the stability and efficiency of the baijiu fermentation process, laying a solid foundation for the stable production of high-quality baijiu.
[0014] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0021] The following describes a baijiu (Chinese liquor) production and fermentation apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the liquor production fermentation device of this utility model includes: a fermentation tank 1, a stirring component 8, and a temperature control component 9.
[0023] The fermenter 1 is equipped with a stirring assembly 8.
[0024] The temperature control component 9 includes a heating element 91, a base plate 92, a controller 93, a signal receiver 94, and a thermometer 95.
[0025] The heating element 91 is disposed between the inner and outer walls of the fermentation tank 1, the bottom plate 92 is disposed on the outer wall of the fermentation tank 1, the controller 93 and the signal receiver 94 are disposed on the bottom plate 92 respectively, and the thermometer 95 is disposed on the fermentation tank 1, with the guide post of the thermometer 95 penetrating through the upper wall of the fermentation tank 1.
[0026] Specifically, when it is necessary to control the internal temperature of fermenter 1, the internal temperature of the fermenter is transmitted to thermometer 95, which then transmits the data to signal receiver 94. Upon receiving the data, if the temperature is low, signal receiver 94 transmits the data to controller 93. Controller 93 then activates heating element 91 to heat fermenter 1. When the temperature reaches the set value, signal receiver 94 transmits the data back to controller 93, which then deactivates heating element 91, stopping heating of fermenter 1. This achieves temperature control, maintaining the internal temperature of fermenter 1 at a suitable fermentation temperature.
[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the stirring assembly 8 includes a drive component 81, a connecting shaft 82, and multiple sets of stirring shafts 83.
[0028] The driving component 81 is mounted on the fermenter 1, the connecting shaft 82 passes through the upper wall of the fermenter 1 and is connected to the rotating shaft of the driving component 81, and multiple sets of stirring shafts 83 are respectively mounted on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 82.
[0029] It should be noted that the driving component 81 described in this embodiment is a drive motor.
[0030] When it is necessary to stir the raw materials of liquor inside the fermentation tank 1, the staff can turn on the drive unit 81 through the external control device. At this time, the drive unit 81 will drive the stirring shaft 83 to rotate, thereby stirring the raw materials of liquor inside the fermentation tank 1 and achieving the effect of temperature uniformity.
[0031] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, a handle 2 is provided on the outer wall of the fermentation tank 1.
[0032] It is understandable that the handle 2 is provided on the outer wall of the fermentation tank 1, so that the fermentation tank 1 can be moved more easily through the handle 2.
[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper wall of the fermenter 1 is provided with a feeding pipe 3, and the other end of the feeding pipe 3 is provided with a pipe cap 4.
[0034] Specifically, when it is necessary to inject baijiu raw materials into the fermentation tank 1, the staff can inject the raw materials into the fermentation tank 1 through the injection pipe 3, and then seal the injection pipe 3 through the pipe cover 4.
[0035] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom wall of the fermenter 1 is provided with support legs 5.
[0036] Understandably, by using the support legs 5 installed on the bottom wall of the fermentation tank 1, the bottom wall of the fermentation tank 1 can be kept from directly contacting the ground, thereby preventing the fermentation tank 1 from being corroded and rusted due to ground water or moisture, and thus extending the life of the fermentation tank 1.
[0037] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom wall of the fermenter 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 6, and a valve 7 is provided on the discharge pipe 6.
[0038] Understandably, when it is necessary to discharge the fermented liquor from fermentation tank 1, the staff can control the liquor to be discharged through discharge pipe 6 via valve 7.
[0039] In summary, the internal temperature of the fermentation tank can be regulated to ensure that it remains constant within a suitable range during the baijiu production process. It can automatically heat according to real-time changes in the thermal effect of the fermentation process, maintaining optimal biological activity of microorganisms such as yeast and mold, allowing for efficient enzymatic reactions. This fundamentally guarantees the stability and efficiency of the baijiu fermentation process, laying a solid foundation for the stable production of high-quality baijiu.
