Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of liquor brewing equipment, and in particular relates to a tray for storing liquor starter blocks. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional baijiu brewing, the stacking of koji blocks relies entirely on manual handling and stacking. Limited by human strength and operating height, the stacking height is difficult to increase. If it becomes too high, ladders or other climbing tools are needed for repeated ascents. Operators stacking these blocks at heights with limited balance are at risk of slipping and falling, posing a significant safety hazard. Furthermore, the low stacking method results in low utilization of storage space and increases site occupancy costs.

[0003] Another prominent problem is the lack of stability in the stack. Traditional stacking relies solely on the weight of the curved blocks to stack them together, with a wrapping film used for lateral fixation. However, the wrapping film is not breathable or waterproof, which can easily cause the temperature and humidity of the curved blocks to exceed the limits, leading to mold growth.

[0004] The fermented koji blocks also face the risk of breakage during handling. Due to the lack of effective constraints between layers and as a whole, stacked koji blocks are prone to slipping and scattering when transported by forklift or manually pushed. Scattered koji blocks not only require additional manual picking and sorting, but broken koji blocks can also breed bacteria when exposed to air, affecting their fermentation activity and causing raw material waste.

[0005] Furthermore, there are significant obstacles to tracing batch information for koji blocks. In the traditional model, key information such as production batches and fermentation cycles of koji blocks relies heavily on paper records or simple markings. These markings are easily blurred and rubbed off due to friction and moisture, and the correspondence between the physical blocks and the records depends entirely on manual memory or checking ledgers. When quality traceability is required (such as investigating fermentation anomalies in a particular batch of koji blocks), each block must be inspected individually. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but may also lead to traceability failures due to information confusion, making it difficult to accurately locate the source of the problem and adversely affecting product quality stability.

[0006] The combination of these problems not only restricts the production efficiency of baijiu brewing and increases labor and raw material costs, but also brings potential risks to production safety and quality control. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a koji storage device that can optimize stacking methods, improve stability, and facilitate traceability. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the problems of insufficient stacking, easy breakage of koji blocks, and difficulty in tracing the origin of koji blocks in the existing technology, this utility model provides a tray for storing koji blocks of liquor. The technical solution is as follows: it includes a tray body, and each of the four corners of the tray body is fixedly provided with a first limiting post. The tray body is used to support several layers of koji blocks. Each layer of koji blocks is separated by a breathable plate. The four corners of the breathable plate are fixedly provided with a second limiting post. The first limiting post and / or the second limiting post of the same layer are used for binding with straps.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the non-load-bearing area of ​​the pallet body is provided with several lightweight holes to reduce the overall weight of the pallet body.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the pallet body has slots in the middle of all four sides, with buckles in the slots. One end of the buckle is fastened to a buckle strap, and the other end of the buckle strap is fastened to the buckle on the opposite side, thus fixing the curved blocks on the pallet body.

[0010] In a more preferred embodiment, the slot has a cavity, and the expansion joint of the buckle slides up and down in the cavity. The diameter of the cavity outlet in the slot is smaller than the diameter of the expansion joint of the buckle.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the top of both the first and second limiting posts are provided with an expansion end to prevent the binding strap from slipping off the first or second limiting post.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the side walls of the tray body are fixedly provided with label slots for placing RFID tags or paper tags.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the permeable plate is a sieve plate with several permeable holes, used to remove moisture from the shaped blocks and prevent them from becoming moldy.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] (1) The first limiting post at the four corners of the pallet body and the second limiting post at the four corners of the breathable plate are combined with the binding strap to form a layered and fixed stacking structure. Multi-layer curved blocks can be stably stacked without manual climbing, which fundamentally eliminates the risk of falling from height. At the same time, the layered stacking design breaks through the height limit of traditional manual stacking, greatly improves the utilization rate of storage space and reduces site occupation costs.

[0016] (2) The slots and buckles around the pallet form a lateral constraint on the overall stack through the buckle straps. Combined with the longitudinal fixation of the limiting post and the binding strap, the curved blocks are not easy to collapse due to collision or vibration in the stacked state, avoiding physical damage such as breakage and crushing of the curved blocks. During the handling process, the synergistic effect of the interlayer ventilation plate and the limiting post can effectively constrain the displacement of the curved blocks, reduce the scattering caused by bumps, and reduce the risk of contamination by miscellaneous bacteria and waste of raw materials.

[0017] (3) The ventilation plate adopts a sieve plate structure with ventilation holes, which can promptly discharge the moisture generated during the storage of koji blocks, avoid mold caused by dampness, ensure that the fermentation activity of koji blocks is not affected, and provide a guarantee for the stability of the subsequent brewing process.

[0018] (4) The label slots on the side wall of the tray can hold RFID tags or paper tags, which facilitates the direct recording of key information such as the production batch and fermentation cycle of the koji blocks, achieving accurate correspondence between physical objects and information. During quality traceability, there is no need to manually check the ledger or inspect the pile, which significantly improves traceability efficiency, helps to quickly locate the source of the problem, and ensures the stability of product quality.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] Example

[0027] like Figure 1-4 The tray shown is for storing baijiu koji blocks, including a tray body 1. Each of the four corners of the tray body 1 is fixed with a first limiting post 2. The tray body 1 is used to support several layers of koji blocks 11. Each layer of koji blocks 11 is separated by a breathable plate 7. Each of the four corners of the breathable plate 7 is fixed with a second limiting post 8. The first limiting post 2 and / or the second limiting post 8 of the same layer are used for binding with binding straps 9.

[0028] The lateral binding straps reduce collisions caused by lateral displacement of the curved blocks, thus preventing block breakage.

[0029] Furthermore, the non-load-bearing area of ​​the pallet body 1 is provided with several lightweight holes 3 to reduce the overall weight of the pallet body 1.

[0030] Furthermore, the tray body 1 has slots 4 in the middle of its four sides, and buckles 5 are provided in the slots 4. The buckles 5 are fastened to one end of the buckle strap 10, and the other end of the buckle strap 10 is fastened to the buckle 5 on the opposite side, thereby fixing the curved block 11 on the tray body 1.

[0031] The buckle strap 10 forms a vertical cross-shaped three-dimensional binding, reducing damage caused by the up-and-down movement of the curved block during transportation.

[0032] like Figure 5 The slot 4 shown has a cavity, and the expansion joint of the buckle 5 slides up and down in the cavity. The diameter of the cavity outlet in the slot 4 is smaller than the diameter of the expansion joint of the buckle 5.

[0033] When not in use, the expansion joint of the buckle 5 is located at the lowest point of the cavity inside the slot 4, and the highest point of the buckle 5 is located inside the slot 4 without protruding, so as to prevent scratching the curved block. When the buckle belt 10 needs to be fastened after the curved block is placed, the buckle 5 is pulled up. At this time, the buckle 5 is exposed in the slot 4, which makes it convenient for the operator to fasten the buckle on the buckle 5.

[0034] like Figure 1-4 The top of the first limiting post 2 and the second limiting post 8 shown are both provided with an expansion end to prevent the binding strap 9 from slipping off the first limiting post 2 or the second limiting post 8.

[0035] Furthermore, the pallet body 1 is provided with label slots 6 around its side walls for placing RFID tags or paper tags.

[0036] RFID tag chips store traceability information such as batch number, production date, and genre code.

[0037] The paper labels contain traceability information such as the storage batch number, production date, and genre code.

[0038] Furthermore, the breathable plate 7 is a sieve plate with several breathable holes, used to remove moisture from the curved block 11 and prevent the curved block 11 from becoming moldy.

[0039] The breathable plate 7 is made of food-grade sieve plate.

[0040] The process of using the aforementioned pallet is as follows: Place the pallet body 1 stably in the storage area, neatly stack the first layer of curved blocks 11 on the pallet body, ensuring that the edges of the curved blocks do not exceed the pallet boundary to avoid uneven stress caused by drooping, lay the breathable plate 7 flat on top of the first layer of curved blocks, ensuring that the second limiting posts 8 at the four corners of the breathable plate are aligned with the first limiting posts 2 at the four corners of the pallet body, and then continue to place the second layer of curved blocks on the breathable plate 7, and so on until the fifth layer of curved blocks, and then use the binding straps 9 to bind them around the first limiting posts 2 to complete the lateral binding, and then bind the second limiting posts 9 on each layer of breathable plate 7 in turn to complete the lateral binding of the curved blocks, and then perform longitudinal binding. To secure the pallet, pull one side of the buckle 5 out of the slot 4 and fasten the buckle strap 10 to the buckle 5 on that side. Then, pull the buckle strap 10 from the top of the curved block to the buckle 5 on the opposite side and fasten it to the buckle 5 on the opposite side. Then, use another buckle strap 10 to complete the binding in the other direction, thus completing the longitudinal binding. This ensures that the curved blocks on the pallet body 1 will not easily shake. The pallet is then lifted and moved using a forklift. During the handling process, the pallet is kept stable to avoid violent bumps that could cause the curved blocks to shift. The secured pallets are then neatly arranged and stacked between pallets in the storage area, with appropriate gaps between adjacent pallets to facilitate ventilation and moisture removal through the breathable panels. The integrity of the labels and the condition of the curved blocks are checked regularly to ensure that the storage environment is dry and well-ventilated.
