Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing technology, and in particular to a sealing device for brewing baijiu (Chinese liquor). Background Technology

[0002] In the early stages of fermentation, a small amount of oxygen is needed to promote yeast reproduction, but in the middle and later stages, a strictly anaerobic environment is required to prevent other bacteria from oxidizing ethanol to produce acetic acid, which would affect the quality of the wine. Sealed devices can control the amount of oxygen entering the wine and ensure that the fermentation process proceeds as needed.

[0003] There are many problems with the common sealing methods used in the production of baijiu (Chinese liquor). Some simple sealing methods, such as directly covering the container opening with a plastic film, are easy to operate but have poor sealing effects and are prone to leakage. This allows outside air to enter the container, interfering with the fermentation process and affecting the quality of the baijiu. Other sealing devices have complex structures and are cumbersome to operate, requiring professional installation and disassembly, which increases production costs and operational difficulty. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as poor sealing performance, easy air leakage, and the intrusion of outside air into the container, which interferes with the fermentation process of baijiu. Therefore, this invention proposes a baijiu brewing sealing device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A sealing device for brewing baijiu (Chinese liquor) includes a container barrel. The top of the container barrel is provided with a barrel lid for sealing the container barrel. A connecting ring is fixed to the top of the surface of the container barrel. The barrel lid is sleeved on the surface of the connecting ring. Four first grooves are provided inside the barrel lid. Each of the four first grooves has a sliding locking block. The four locking blocks are used to cooperate with the barrel lid to clamp the connecting ring and fix the barrel lid. A set of clamping components is provided inside the barrel lid. The clamping components are used to drive the four locking blocks to move in a direction closer together to clamp the connecting ring.

[0007] And a drive component used in conjunction with the clamping assembly, the drive component being used to drive the clamping assembly to start up quickly.

[0008] In one possible design, the clamping assembly includes an annular groove formed inside the bucket lid and communicating with four first grooves. A rotating ring rotates within the annular groove. Four pressing grooves are formed at the bottom end of the rotating ring. Pressing rods slide within each of the four pressing grooves. The four pressing rods are respectively fixed to the top of the four clamping blocks.

[0009] In this process, the rotating ring is driven to rotate, which adjusts the position of the extrusion groove. The extrusion groove squeezes the four extrusion rods to move relative to each other in a direction that is close to each other, thereby driving the four clamping blocks to move in a direction that is close to each other. The four clamping blocks work together with the bucket lid to hold the connecting ring.

[0010] In one possible design, the four adjacent ends of the four blocks are provided with inclined surfaces to facilitate the insertion of the four blocks into the underside of the connecting ring.

[0011] In one possible design, the drive assembly includes a second groove formed inside the bucket lid and communicating with an annular groove. A rotating shaft rotates within the second groove. A connecting rod is fixed to the surface of the rotating shaft. A rotating ring is fixed to the surface of the connecting rod. A worm gear is fixed to the surface of the rotating shaft. A worm meshes with the worm gear and rotates within the second groove. The worm moves outward through the surface of the bucket lid and is fixed with a handle.

[0012] The mechanism involves turning the throttle to rotate the worm gear, which in turn rotates the worm wheel, which in turn rotates the shaft, which in turn rotates the connecting rod, which in turn rotates the ring, which in turn drives the locking block to open or retract.

[0013] In one possible design, the lid has an exhaust vent, and the exhaust vent contains a one-way valve for venting.

[0014] In one possible design, a sealing ring is fixed to the bottom of the bucket lid.

[0015] In this application, turning the throttle causes the worm to rotate, the worm to rotate the worm wheel, the worm wheel to rotate the shaft, the shaft to rotate the connecting rod, the connecting rod to rotate the ring, and the ring can drive the locking block to open or retract.

[0016] By driving the rotating ring to rotate, the position of the extrusion groove is adjusted. The extrusion groove squeezes the four extrusion rods to move relative to each other in the same direction, thereby driving the four clamping blocks to move in the same direction. The four clamping blocks cooperate with the bucket lid to hold the connecting ring.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The baijiu brewing sealing device of this utility model, through the setting of clamping components and driving components, realizes the rapid sealing and opening of the barrel lid and the container barrel. The throttle, worm gear, worm wheel and other components in the driving component work together. Simply turning the throttle can drive the rotating ring to rotate through mechanical transmission, thereby driving the four clamping blocks to move in the same direction and firmly fix the barrel lid to the container barrel. The operation is simple and convenient, which greatly improves the efficiency of sealing and opening, and reduces the difficulty of operation and labor intensity.

[0018] In this utility model, the inclined surface design of the four close-to-each ends of the sealing device for liquor brewing makes it easier to insert the blocks into the lower side of the connecting ring when installing the barrel lid, further simplifying the installation process and improving the ease of installation.

[0019] In this invention, the venting groove and one-way valve inside the lid can promptly release the gas generated during fermentation, preventing excessive pressure inside the container and avoiding safety hazards such as container rupture caused by excessive pressure. At the same time, the one-way valve can prevent outside air from entering the container, ensuring the stability of the fermentation environment, which is beneficial to the fermentation and aging of baijiu.
