[0020] This utility model provides an automated glass fermentation tank, the structure of which is as follows: Figures 1-3As shown, the device includes a horizontal plate 1, with a vertical plate 2 fixed to the bottom of the horizontal plate 1 and support columns 25 fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the horizontal plate 1. The side of the vertical plate 2 has a first groove 3 and a support plate 4. A first motor 10 is installed at the bottom of the vertical plate 2. The output end of the first motor 10 extends into the first groove 3 and is connected to a screw 6. The top of the support plate 4 has a mounting groove 8, and a threaded tube 7 connected to the screw 6 is fixed to its side. A tank 9 is provided in the mounting groove 8. A top plate 11 is provided at the top of the tank 9. A second motor 12 is installed at the center of the top of the top plate 11. Two brush plates 14 are provided at the bottom edge of the top plate 11, and the output end of the brush plate 14 passes through the top edge of the top plate 11. A stirring shaft 13 is connected to the center of the top plate 11. Two brushes 14 are positioned opposite each other and are fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 13 via two connecting rods 15. A through hole 22 is opened at the top of the horizontal plate 1, and a connecting plate 19 is provided at its bottom. A rotating rod 23 is fixed at the top of the connecting plate 19, and a first straight rod 20 and a second straight rod 21 are fixed at both ends of its top surface. The top of the rotating rod 23 passes through the through hole 22 and is connected to a rotating mechanism 5. A bearing plate 17 is fixed at the bottom of the first straight rod 20, and the bottom of the bearing plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top plate 11 via two fixing rods 16. A top cover 18 is fixed at the bottom of the second straight rod 21. Using an automated glass fermentation tank, the top cover 18 and the two brushes 14 can be switched for use, resulting in good cleaning effect and high efficiency without increasing the labor intensity of workers.

[0021] Specifically, the rotating mechanism 5 includes a first gear 51 and a straight plate 52. The first gear 51 is fixed to the top of the rotating rod 23. The straight plate 52 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 1 by two columns 53 and a servo motor 54 is installed at its bottom. The output end of the servo motor 54 is connected to a second gear 55 that meshes with the first gear 51. The output end of the servo motor 54 drives the second gear 55 to mesh with the first gear 51, which causes the rotating rod 23 to drive the connecting plate 19 to rotate. At this time, the connecting plate 19 drives the two brush plates 14 and the top cover 18 to switch, so as to clean the inner wall of the tank 9.

[0022] Furthermore, both sides of the support plate 4 are threaded with bolts 31, and the mounting groove 8 is provided with two arc-shaped clamping plates 29. The two arc-shaped clamping plates 29 are positioned opposite each other on the bottom side of the tank body 9, and the outer sides of each of them are fixed with first bearings 30. One end of each of the two bolts 31 is connected to the two first bearings 30 respectively. By rotating the two bolts 31, they can both drive the arc-shaped clamping plates 29 to move inward and clamp the tank body 9.

[0023] Furthermore, two guide rods 32 are fixed to the outer sides of the two arc-shaped clamping plates 29. The guide rods 32 are slidably connected to the support plate 4, making the arc-shaped clamping plates 29 more stable when moving.

[0024] Furthermore, an annular groove 56 is formed on the side wall of the through hole 22, and a slip ring 57 located in the annular groove 56 is fixed on the side of the rotating rod 23 to support the stable rotation of the rotating rod 23.

[0025] Furthermore, two second grooves 26 are opened on the side of the vertical plate 2, and a sliding rod 27 is fixed in each of the two second grooves 26. Two sliders 28 are fixed on the side of the support plate 4, and the two sliders 28 are slidably connected to the two sliding rods 27 respectively, so that the process of the support plate 4 moving up and down is relatively stable.

[0026] Furthermore, a second bearing 24 is provided on the side wall of the first groove 3, and the other end of the screw 6 is connected to the second bearing 24 to support the stable rotation of the screw 6.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the servo motor 54 is started, and its output end drives the second gear 55 to mesh with the first gear 51, causing the rotating rod 23 to drive the connecting plate 19 to rotate. At this time, the connecting plate 19 drives the two brush plates 14 and the top cover 18 to switch so that the two brush plates 14 are located directly above the tank body 9. Then, the first motor 10 is started, and its output end drives the screw 6 to rotate, causing the screw tube 7 to drive the support plate 4 and the tank body 9 to move upward. Finally, the second motor 12 is started, and its output end drives the stirring shaft 13 to rotate, causing the two brush plates 14 to rotate, thereby cleaning the inner wall of the tank body 9. The cleaning effect is good and the efficiency is high, without increasing the labor intensity of workers.

[0028] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model in any way. Any changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the claims.
