Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of yeast fermentation technology, and in particular to an intelligent cultivation device for enhancing the fermentation power of yeast. Background Technology

[0002] Brewing strong-aroma baijiu requires medium-temperature Daqu (a type of starter culture). Daqu provides abundant microorganisms and enzymes for the fermentation of the mash, which is the most important driving force for brewing baijiu. The key to providing this driving force is fermentation power, and the main microorganisms that provide fermentation power are yeast. The higher the fermentation power of the Daqu, the easier it is to ferment glucose into alcohol during brewing, thus ensuring normal fermentation.

A yeast storage mechanism is installed inside the body. The yeast storage mechanism includes a movable base. Two guide sliders are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the movable base. Each of the two guide sliders has a movable screw hole, and a movable screw is threaded into each of the two movable screw holes.

[0004] However, in actual use, the inventor discovered that the existing koji cultivation mainly involves natural inoculation by stacking the koji blocks on shelves in the koji room. The koji-making process is greatly affected by the season and weather temperature, and manual turning of the koji is inconvenient, making it difficult to control the overall fermentation intensity of a large number of koji blocks. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by setting up a loading component in conjunction with a fixing component to monitor the temperature, humidity, and fermentation force of multiple koji blocks and to promptly swap the positions of the koji blocks at different heights.

After stacking, the loading component is reset and the assembly frame is pushed to connect with the previous set of assembly frames under the action of the second locking component. At the same time, the braking component locks the pulley synchronously.

[0008] Preferably, the loading assembly includes two sets of mounting plates connected to the assembly frame via a drive shaft, multiple sets of rectangular plates connected between the two sets of mounting plates via suspension components, multiple sets of first and second through pipes connected to the rectangular plates and nested together, and a nozzle that passes through the first through pipe and communicates with the second through pipe.

[0015] (2) In this utility model, by setting a loading component that can drive multiple koji blocks to rotate up and down as a whole, and by using a fixing component to stabilize the position of the koji blocks, when the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the koji blocks is large during the fermentation process, the worker can quickly complete the rotation of the koji blocks and realize the koji turning work.

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, an intelligent cultivation device for enhancing the fermentation power of yeast includes an assembly frame 200 connected with multiple pulleys 100, a loading component 1 connected to the assembly frame 200, multiple sets of fixing components 2 set on the loading component 1, two sets of first engaging components 3 connected to one side of the assembly frame 200, a second engaging component 4 set on the first engaging component 3, and two sets of braking components 5 connected to both sides of the assembly frame 200.

[0028] When the curved blocks need to be stacked, the loading component 1 is rotated so that it is limited by the first locking component 3. The fixed component 2 fixes the curved blocks. After stacking, the loading component 1 is reset and the assembly frame 200 is pushed to connect with the previous set of assembly frames 200 under the action of the second locking component 4. At the same time, the braking component 5 locks the pulley 100 synchronously.

[0029] In this embodiment, by setting up a loading component 1 that can rotate the overall position of multiple fermentation blocks, and in conjunction with a fixing component 2 to stabilize the position of the fermentation blocks, workers can quickly rotate the position of the fermentation blocks when there is a large temperature difference between the top and bottom of the fermentation blocks during the fermentation process, thus realizing the fermentation turning work. In addition, by real-time monitoring of the temperature, humidity and fermentation force of the fermentation blocks, corresponding measures can be taken in a timely manner, so that the overall fermentation effect of the fermentation blocks is uniform, thus achieving the purpose of intelligent cultivation.

[0030] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the loading assembly 1 includes two sets of mounting plates 12 connected to the assembly frame 200 via drive shafts 11, multiple sets of rectangular plates 14 connected between the two sets of mounting plates 12 via suspension members 13, multiple sets of first pipes 15 and second pipes 16 connected to the rectangular plates 14 and nested together, and nozzles 17 passing through the first pipes 15 and communicating with the second pipes 16.

[0031] In this embodiment, by setting a rectangular plate 14 that is connected to the mounting plate 12 and multiple sets of suspension components 13 by the drive shaft 11, the height of the koji blocks can be lowered and uniform when they are being loaded, which is beneficial for workers to carry out the loading work, reducing the bending and climbing process. At the same time, workers can quickly complete the overall up and down turning work, so that the fermentation temperature of the koji blocks is uniform.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the fixing assembly 2 includes two sets of pressure plates 22 disposed on the rectangular plate 14 and connected to follower racks 21, follower gears 23 connected to the rectangular plate 14 via a rotating shaft and meshing with the two sets of follower racks 21, multiple probes 24 connected to the pressure plates 22, and a drive rack 26 connected to the rectangular plate 14 via a first telescopic member 25 and meshing with the follower gears 23.

[0033] In this embodiment, by setting the fixing component 2, when the worker places the curved block on the rectangular plate 14, the pressure plates 22 on both sides will automatically press against the curved block, thereby fixing the curved block and preventing it from falling. In addition, the probe 24 on the pressure plate 22 firstly plays an auxiliary fixing role, and also serves as a medium for detecting temperature, humidity and fermentation force, thereby accurately grasping the fermentation process.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the first locking assembly 3 includes a mounting box 31 connected to the assembly frame 200, a first locking block 33 passing through one side of the mounting box 31 and connected to the mounting box 31 by a spring 32, a brake rod 34 connected to the mounting plate 12, a first locking groove 35 formed on the brake rod 34 and used to cooperate with the first locking block 33 to fix the position of the mounting plate 12, and a lead screw 37 passing through the mounting box 31 and connected to a slider 36.

[0035] In this embodiment, by setting the first engaging component 3, when the worker rotates the mounting plate 12 by 90°, the brake rod 34, in conjunction with the first engaging component 3, can automatically fix the mounting plate 12, thereby facilitating the installation of the curved block.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the second locking assembly 4 includes a second locking block 42 that passes through the mounting box 31 and is connected to the mounting box 31 via a second telescopic member 41, an extrusion groove 43 formed on the second locking block 42, a second locking slot 44 formed on the assembly frame 200 and used to cooperate with the second locking block 42 to fix two adjacent assembly frames 200, and a triangular block 45 connected to the slider 36.

[0037] In this embodiment, by setting the second locking component 4, the multiple assembly frames 200 are more tightly connected to each other, ensuring the overall stability and facilitating the subsequent covering work of the top tarpaulin.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, components that are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1 are referred to using the same reference numerals as in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 are described below. The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is as follows:

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the braking assembly 5 includes a transmission rod 52 connected to the assembly frame 200 and having a braking groove 51, a brake plate 53 passing through the assembly frame 200, and a waist-shaped groove plate 55 connected to the assembly frame 200 via a swing rod 54 and having its two ends connected to the transmission rod 52 and the brake plate 53 respectively.

[0041] It is worth mentioning that by setting the braking component 5, when the assembly frames 200 are assembled together, the brake lever 34 drives the braking component 5 to automatically complete the braking work on one side of the roller, thereby stabilizing the position of multiple assembly frames 200 and preventing them from moving arbitrarily.

[0042] Work process:

[0043] Step 1, Mounting: The worker drives the drive shaft 11 and mounting plate 12 to rotate 90° via a turntable. The mounting plate 12 drives multiple rectangular plates 14 to rotate via a suspension member 13. One end of the suspension member 13 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 12, and the other end is fixedly connected to the rectangular plates 14. Thus, the rectangular plates 14 always maintain a downward posture during rotation. At the end of the rotation, one end of the brake rod 34 connected to the mounting plate 12 is blocked by the mounting box 31. Under the action of the spring 32, the first slot 35 on the brake rod 34 engages with the first block 33 on the mounting box 31, thus fixing the position of the mounting plate 12. At this time, the worker can carry out the mounting of the curved block. When the curved block is mounted, due to its own gravity, it squeezes the drive rack 26. The drive rack 26 moves downward and drives the follower racks 21 on both sides to move closer to each other through the follower gear 23. Then, it drives the two sets of pressure plates 22 to fix the curved block. At the same time, the probe 24 on the pressure plate 22 pierces into the inside of the curved block.

[0044] Step 2, assembly. After the curved block is installed, the worker rotates the end of the screw 37 to move the slider 36. The slider 36 squeezes and causes the first locking block 33 to retract backward. At this time, the rotating turntable drives the mounting plate 12 to reset. Then, the screw 37 is rotated in the opposite direction to reset the first locking block 33. Next, the worker pushes the assembly frame 200 to assemble with the previous set of assembly frames 200. During the process, the second locking blocks 42 and the second locking grooves 44 on the two sets of assembly frames 200 are aligned and bound together by the second telescopic component 41. At the same time, the brake rod 34 on the latter mounting plate 12 extends to the brake groove 51 on the former transmission rod 52. The transmission rod 52 moves upward by the inclined surface. Then, under the action of the waist-shaped groove plate 55 and the swing rod 54, the brake plate 53 moves downward. The brake plate 53 squeezes the roller through the rubber pad at the end, thereby braking the roller.

[0045] Step 3: Monitoring. After multiple sets of assembly racks 200 are connected sequentially, the inlet and outlet of the circulating water pipe are also interconnected among the assembly racks 200. Water pipes and channels are also installed inside the assembly racks 200, drive shaft 11, mounting plate 12, and rectangular plate 14, and finally connected to the first through pipe 15. The first through pipe 15 is made of stainless steel, which has good heat transfer effect and is used to monitor and control the temperature of the overall fermentation environment in conjunction with the probe 24. In addition, the second through pipe 16 is connected to multiple nozzles 17 and is used to monitor the spraying of enhanced bacteria in conjunction with the probe 24, which can improve fermentation power and saccharification power. The exhaust fan can automatically turn on to remove moisture and exchange air according to the temperature and humidity conditions set at different stages, effectively... To address the issue of varying humidity levels affecting fermentation power, better cultivation conditions are provided for yeast growth in the fermentation blocks, thereby enhancing fermentation power. When the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts of the fermentation space is too large, workers can rotate the lead screw 37 to cause the slider 36 to drive the triangular block 45 to press the extrusion groove 43 on the second locking block 42, separating the second locking block 42 from the corresponding second locking groove 44. This allows the assembly frame 200 to be pulled out one by one. Starting from the first set of assembly frames 200, the mounting plate 12 is rotated 180° to swap the upper and lower layers, ensuring balanced fermentation power in the fermentation blocks. The brake lever 34 is then slid off and inserted into the groove at the center symmetrical position on the mounting plate 12, allowing multiple assembly frames 200 to be connected and reset sequentially.
