Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible fungi production technology, specifically to a fermentation device for edible fungi that can increase fermentation yield. Background Technology

[0002] Fermentation equipment for edible fungi, especially fermentation tanks, is a fermentation device specifically designed for the cultivation of edible fungi mycelium. It simulates a suitable growth environment, providing appropriate nutrients, pH levels, temperature, and oxygen supply to promote rapid mycelial growth and propagation. Edible fungi fermentation tanks not only improve the yield and quality of edible fungi but also shorten the production cycle and reduce costs, bringing significant economic benefits to edible fungi production.

[0003] A fertilizer mixing and fermentation device for edible fungi cultivation disclosed in Chinese utility model patent application CN218404012U involves the rotation of a threaded rod that lowers the mixing and fermentation tank. Simultaneously, the main gear drives the driven gear to rotate, allowing the mixing and fermentation tank to rotate automatically. This facilitates direct material removal and efficient extraction of the entire fertilizer. However, the overall fermentation rate of the edible fungi fermentation device is slow, and the fermentation of the edible fungi inside generally takes a long time. This results in a period of time after fermentation for the edible fungi to fully react, affecting the overall fermentation yield of the edible fungi. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fermentation device for edible fungi that can increase fermentation yield, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] Preferably, a viewing window is fixedly connected to one side of the outside of the fermentation chamber, a feed inlet is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the fermentation chamber, and a discharge outlet is installed at the bottom of one side of the fermentation chamber.

[0007] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a slot at the top of one side of the fixed column, and a threaded rod is threadedly connected to the top of the outer side of the fermentation chamber.

[0008] Preferably, a square block that slides inside the fermentation chamber is rotatably connected to one side of the threaded rod, and a plug block that engages with the slot is fixedly connected to the middle position of the square block on the side away from the threaded rod.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This fermentation device for edible fungi, which can improve fermentation yield, has a drive motor installed at the top of the fermentation chamber. The drive motor drives the first gear to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear on one side to rotate. At this time, the first gear and the second gear can drive the stirring rod at the bottom to rotate. The actuating rods on the two sets of stirring rods are staggered, which can quickly break up and mix the edible fungi material inside the fermentation chamber, accelerate the movement between edible fungi molecules in the fermentation chamber, improve the reaction rate of edible fungi, and increase the overall fermentation yield.

[0013] 2. This fermentation device for edible fungi, which can improve fermentation yield, can collect internal fermentation materials by setting a sampling tube at the bottom of the fixed column.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides two technical solutions:

[0021] Example 1

[0022] A fermentation device for edible fungi that can improve fermentation yield includes a fermentation chamber 1. A fixed column 2 is slidably connected to the inside of one side of the top of the fermentation chamber 1. A sampling cylinder 201 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed column 2. A limit mechanism 3 is provided at the top of one side of the fermentation chamber 1. Electric heating plates 4 are installed on both sides inside the fermentation chamber 1. A temperature sensor 5 is installed on one side of the top of the fermentation chamber 1. A transmission mechanism 6 is provided inside the top of the fermentation chamber 1. A stirring rod 7 is provided at the bottom of the transmission mechanism 6. The electric heating plates 4 can heat the inside of the fermentation chamber 1, and the temperature sensor 5 can monitor the temperature parameters in the fermentation chamber in real time. Therefore, the electric heating plates 4 are automatically adjusted according to the growth requirements of edible fungi to ensure that the fermentation environment is in the optimal state.

[0023] A viewing window 101 is fixedly connected to one side of the outside of the fermentation chamber 1, and a feed inlet 102 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the fermentation chamber 1. A discharge outlet 103 is installed at the bottom of one side of the fermentation chamber 1. The fermentation of the edible fungi inside can be observed through the viewing window 101. At the same time, the feed inlet 102 can be used to pour the edible fungi to be fermented, along with protease, amylase, etc., into the interior of the fermentation chamber 1 for mixing. The mixed edible fungi can be discharged by opening the discharge outlet 103.

[0024] The transmission mechanism 6 includes a drive motor 601 installed on one side of the top of the fermentation chamber 1. The output shaft of the drive motor 601 is equipped with a first gear 602 that rotates inside the fermentation chamber 1. A second gear 603 that rotates inside the fermentation chamber 1 is meshed with one side of the first gear 602. When the drive motor 601 is started, it can drive the first gear 602 to rotate. At the same time, the first gear 602 can push the second gear 603 on one side to rotate in the opposite direction.

[0025] A stirring rod 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the first gear 602 and a stirring rod 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second gear 603. The first gear 602 and the second gear 603 can drive the stirring rod 7 to rotate, so that the stirring rod 7 inside the fermentation chamber 1 can quickly mix edible fungi and auxiliary enzymes, thereby improving the fermentation effect of edible fungi.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] The main difference from Example 1 is:

[0028] A fermentation device for edible fungi that can improve fermentation yield includes a limiting mechanism 3 comprising a slot 202 at the top of one side of a fixed column 2, a threaded rod 301 threadedly connected to the top of one side of the fermentation chamber 1, a square block 302 rotatably connected to one side of the threaded rod 301 that slides inside the fermentation chamber 1, and an insert block 303 that engages with the slot 202 fixedly connected to the middle position of the square block 302 away from the threaded rod 301. Rubber pads are provided on the connection surfaces of the fermentation chamber 1 and the fixed column 2 to increase the sealing of the connection between the fermentation chamber 1 and the fixed column 2. By rotating the threaded rod 301 on the fermentation chamber 1, the threaded rod 301 can push the insert block 303 into the slot 202 on the fixed column 2 through the square block 302, thus fixing the position of the fixed column 2 inside the fermentation chamber 1. When the fixed column 2 is removed from the fermentation chamber 1, the fermentation status of the edible fungi inside the fermentation chamber 1 can be observed through the material in the sampling tube 201 at the bottom of the fixed column 2. Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0029] In this embodiment of the application, the edible fungi and auxiliary enzymes to be fermented can be poured into the fermentation chamber 1 through the feed inlet 102 at the top of the fermentation chamber 1. At this time, the temperature parameters in the fermentation chamber can be monitored in real time by the temperature sensor 5. According to the growth requirements of the edible fungi, the heating plate 4 is automatically adjusted to ensure that the fermentation environment is in the best state. The first gear 602 can be driven to rotate by the drive motor 601. At this time, the first gear 602 can drive the second gear 603 on one side to rotate. Then, the first gear 602 and the second gear 603 can drive the stirring rod 7 to rotate inside the fermentation chamber 1, thereby accelerating the movement between the edible fungi molecules in the fermentation chamber 1 and quickly breaking up and mixing the edible fungi materials inside the fermentation chamber 1 for fermentation.
