Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermentation equipment technology, and in particular to a microbial fermentation device with a cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] Snakehead fish and mitten crabs can be co-cultured, as they benefit from each other and help maintain the ecological balance of the aquatic body. Snakehead fish are carnivorous, mainly feeding on small fish, shrimp, and crabs, while mitten crabs feed on benthic invertebrates and aquatic plants. The two species do not attack or compete for food. During co-culture, the large amount of excrement from the snakehead fish can be fermented using beneficial microorganisms. The treated excrement can then be added to the crab pond as organic fertilizer, providing nutrients for the aquatic plants needed for the growth of the mitten crabs.

[0003] Utility model patent CN209537463U discloses a microbial fermentation device, including a fermenter and a base plate. The fermenter is located above the top of the base plate. Feed inlets are provided on both sides of the top of the fermenter. A first motor is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the fermenter. An exhaust port and a heater are provided on one side of the fermenter, and an air inlet and a liquid outlet are provided on the other side. A sealed cavity is provided on the inner wall of this side of the fermenter. The shaft of the first motor rotates vertically downwards and is equipped with a stirring rod. The bottom end of the stirring rod extends into the fermenter and connects to the bottom bearing of the fermenter. The beneficial effect is that this utility model uses a second motor, a first pulley, and a second pulley in combination to drive the fermenter to rotate. During rotation, due to the instability of the fermenter's center of gravity, the fermenter will tilt and sway around the rotating components, resulting in uniform mixing of the fermentation products inside the fermenter and improving fermentation efficiency.

[0004] In the aforementioned existing technology, the fermentation process needs to be sealed to prevent contamination during use. However, gas is produced during fermentation, which causes the internal pressure of the device to rise. Existing fermentation devices are prone to cell death if pressure is not released in time, and the devices are inconvenient to clean after use, leading to troublesome maintenance. Therefore, improvements to the existing technology are needed. Utility Model Content

An oxygen supply pipe 13 is fixedly connected inside one of the cover plates 10. An exhaust mechanism 8 is provided on one of the cover plates 10.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3The exhaust mechanism 8 includes a fixed seat 81, which is fixedly connected to the inside of a cover plate 10. A baffle 82 is slidably sleeved inside the fixed seat 81. A slide rod 83 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the baffle 82. A fixing strip 84 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 83. The fixing strip 84 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 81. A first spring 85 is provided on the outside of the slide rod 83. One end of the first spring 85 is fixedly connected to a plug 86, and the other end of the first spring 85 is fixedly connected to the fixing strip 84. By designing the first spring 85, the force of the first spring 85 can act on the plug 86. A plug 86 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide rod 83. A sealing sleeve 87 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the plug 86. The sealing sleeve 87 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 81. By designing the sealing sleeve 87, the connection between the plug 86 and the fixed seat 81 can be sealed. By designing the exhaust mechanism 8, the tank 1 can be automatically depressurized and vented.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 The cleaning mechanism 9 includes a connecting sleeve 91. The connecting sleeve 91 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the output end of another drive motor 11. A connecting rod 92 is slidably sleeved inside the connecting sleeve 91. A scraper 93 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting rod 92. A guide rod 94 is slidably sleeved inside the connecting rod 92.

By designing the second spring 95, the force of the second spring 95 can be applied to the connecting rod 92. A water inlet 96 is fixedly connected to the top of another cover plate 10. By designing the cleaning mechanism 9, it is convenient to clean the inside of the tank 1.

[0025] Working principle: When in use, the material is first added to the inner wall of the tank 1. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the cover plate 10 to move down and close the tank 1, so that the electric heating stirring rod 14 extends into the inside of the tank 1. The drive motor 11 drives the electric heating stirring rod 14 to rotate, which can stir and ferment the material. The oxygen supply pipe 13 can supply oxygen into the tank 1 to ensure the fermentation environment of microorganisms. In addition, the electric heating stirring rod 14 can also heat the material as needed.

[0026] During fermentation, when the internal pressure of tank 1 increases, gas enters the fixed seat 81 and pushes the plug 86 upward. The plug 86 drives the slide rod 83 to move upward along the fixed strip 84. The plug 86 will squeeze the first spring 85, and at the same time, the slide rod 83 will push the baffle 82 upward. When the sealing sleeve 87 separates from the inner wall of the fixed seat 81, the baffle 82 will rise out from the inside of the fixed seat 81. At this time, the gas will be discharged to the outside through the fixed seat 81. When the internal pressure of tank 1 is too high, the gas can be automatically depressurized and discharged through the fixed seat 81, avoiding the problem of the bacteria dying due to excessive internal pressure of tank 1.

[0027] After fermentation is complete, the material is discharged through tank 1. Then, hydraulic cylinder 4 drives cover plate 10 to move upwards and reset, removing the electric heating stirring rod 14 from inside tank 1. Next, the output of motor 6 drives connecting frame 7 and cover plate 10 to rotate. Cover plate 10 on the other side rotates to the upper part of tank 1. Then, the output of hydraulic cylinder 4 drives connecting bar 5 and connecting frame 7 downwards. Cover plate 10 simultaneously drives scraper 93 downwards, causing scraper 93 to contact tank 1. As scraper 93 moves downwards along tank 1, its tilted bottom causes it to be squeezed and move horizontally. Scraper 93 then drives connecting rod 92 along guide rod 94 and... When the connecting sleeve 91 moves horizontally, the connecting rod 92 compresses the second spring 95, ultimately causing the cover plate 10 to seal the tank 1. Water is then injected into the tank 1 through the inlet 96. Then, the drive motor 11 is started. The output end of the drive motor 11 drives the connecting sleeve 91, the connecting rod 92, and the scraper 93 to rotate. The scraper 93 can rotate and scrape the inner wall of the tank 1, thereby realizing the automatic cleaning of the device and improving the device's performance. Furthermore, the scraper 93 is supported by the second spring 95 inside the connecting sleeve 91, which allows the scraper 93 to adhere tightly to the inner wall of the tank 1 to enhance the cleaning effect.
