Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquor ripening technology, specifically to a liquor ripening device. Background Technology

[0002] Baijiu is a unique distilled spirit in China and one of the world's six major distilled spirits. It is made from starch or sugar raw materials that are fermented into mash and then distilled. Baijiu is also known as shaojiu or baigan. It is a traditional Chinese alcoholic beverage. The production of baijiu in my country has a long history. The fermentation and distillation cycle of baijiu is relatively long. In order to produce baijiu quickly in modern industrial production, it is often necessary to accelerate the maturation of baijiu.

[0003] The ripening equipment used, as shown in application number 202122956627.2, includes a fixed platform. A housing is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed platform. An ultrasonic device is installed inside the housing. A forward and reverse motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed platform. A threaded column is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the forward and reverse motor. A threaded tube is sleeved on the surface of the threaded column. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded tube. A protective shell is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting plate. In this technical solution, by setting forward and reverse motors and servo motors, when the operator uses the device to ripen the liquor, the operator only needs to start the forward and reverse motors and servo motors by controlling the switch. This causes the rotating shaft to drive the stirring blades to rotate and move inside the housing, thereby stirring and mixing the liquor ripening agent evenly.

[0004] However, the following problems still exist in this technical solution: it is not possible to sample and test the liquor during the ripening process inside the container, making it difficult to know the degree of ripening. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for accelerating the aging of baijiu (Chinese white liquor). The sampling mechanism allows staff to easily sample the baijiu inside the sampling tank and detect the degree of aging. The spraying mechanism can also evenly spray the aging agent into the container, allowing the aging agent and baijiu to mix thoroughly and accelerate the aging process, thereby solving the aforementioned shortcomings in the technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a baijiu (Chinese liquor) ripening device, comprising a container for holding baijiu, a support platform fixedly provided at the bottom of the container, an ultrasonic device provided at the bottom inside the container, a third connecting pipe fixedly connected to the top of one side of the container, a pipe cap inserted into the top of the third connecting pipe, a fourth connecting pipe fixedly connected to the bottom front side of the container, and a third switch valve fixedly provided outside the fourth connecting pipe.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the support platform is provided with a sampling mechanism for convenient sampling and testing of the liquor inside the container. The sampling mechanism includes a first connecting pipe fixedly connected to one side of the container, a sampling container fixedly provided on one side of the top of the support platform, the end of the first connecting pipe away from the container passing through the sampling container and extending into the interior of the sampling container, a first switch valve fixedly provided on the outside of the first connecting pipe, a sealing plate provided on the top of the first connecting pipe, and a handle fixedly provided on the top of the sealing plate for convenient sampling and testing of the liquor inside the container.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the support platform is equipped with a spraying mechanism for evenly spraying the aging agent of baijiu into the inside of the container. The spraying mechanism includes a water tank located on the top of the support platform. A water pump is fixedly mounted on the top of the water tank via a bracket. The outlet of the water pump is fixedly connected to an outlet pipe. The top end of the outlet pipe passes through the container and extends into the container. One end of the outlet pipe extending into the container is fixedly connected to an annular connecting pipe. Multiple nozzles are fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular connecting pipe. The inlet of the water pump is fixedly connected to an inlet pipe. The bottom end of the inlet pipe passes through the water tank and extends into the bottom of the water tank. A second connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank. A second switch valve is fixedly mounted on the outside of the second connecting pipe for evenly spraying the aging agent of baijiu into the inside of the container.

[0009] Preferably, the container is equipped with a stirring mechanism for mixing the liquor and the liquor aging agent. The stirring mechanism includes two rotating shafts inside the container, and multiple stirring rods are fixedly mounted on the outside of the rotating shafts. The top ends of both rotating shafts pass through the container and extend beyond the top of the container. The rotating shafts are movably connected to the container via bearings. A pulley passes through the top end of each rotating shaft, and the two pulleys are equipped with the same belt. A motor is fixedly mounted on the top end of one of the rotating shafts. The motor is fixed to the top of the container via a bracket and is used to mix the liquor and the liquor aging agent.

[0010] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0011] When it is necessary to test the degree of aging of the liquor inside the container, open the first switch valve outside the first connecting pipe. The liquor inside the container can then flow into the sampling container through the first switch valve. When the liquor content in the sampling container reaches the detection limit, close the first switch valve. The liquor inside the container will no longer flow into the sampling container. Then, remove the sealing plate from the top of the sampling container using the handle to facilitate the staff to sample the liquor inside the sampling container and test the degree of aging of the liquor.

[0012] When the water pump is started, it draws the aging agent for baijiu (Chinese liquor) from the water tank into the inlet pipe, then into the outlet pipe, and finally into the annular connecting pipe. The agent is then sprayed into the container through a nozzle at the bottom of the annular connecting pipe. This invention, through its spraying mechanism, can evenly spray the aging agent into the container, ensuring thorough mixing between the aging agent and the baijiu, thus accelerating the aging process.
