Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing technology, and in particular to a koji (fermentation starter) diversion device. Background Technology
[0002] In the traditional brewing process of baijiu, koji making is one of the key technological steps. In the koji making process, the soaked wheat, mother koji, and water are first thoroughly mixed using stirring equipment to form koji material, and then the koji material is transported to the koji-making site using koji material conveying equipment.
[0003] Because the discharge port of the existing koji conveying equipment is located in a fixed position, the koji tends to accumulate below the discharge port. This excessive accumulation of koji in a localized area not only affects the quality of the koji at the bottom but also leads to overcrowding due to excessive concentration of personnel at the koji accumulation point, thus impacting work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problem of concentrated accumulation of koji material in certain areas, this invention provides a koji material diversion device.
[0005] A material diversion device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0006] The flow guide body is conical in shape;
[0007] The diversion body is frustoconical in shape and is disposed below the flow guiding body;
[0008] The flow guide channel is arranged circumferentially along the flow divider body, and the width of the flow guide channel gradually increases from the top to the bottom.
[0009] In some embodiments, the diameter of the top of the diversion body is smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the guide body.
[0010] In some embodiments, baffles are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the diversion body, and the guide groove is formed between the baffles.
[0011] In some embodiments, the distance by which the baffle protrudes from the diverter body is less than or equal to the distance by which the bottom of the guide body protrudes from the top of the diverter body.
[0012] In some embodiments, the baffle protrudes from the surface of the diversion body in a gradient shape that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, specifically an arched arc surface.
[0013] In some embodiments, the material diversion device further includes an angled baffle with the top corner of the baffle facing the flow guide body, and the sidewall of the baffle surrounding one of the flow guide grooves inside the baffle.
[0014] In some embodiments, the material diversion device further includes a support base, which is fixedly disposed below the diversion body.
[0015] In some embodiments, the support base is cylindrical, and a flange is provided at the bottom of the support base to fix it to the ground.
[0016] In some embodiments, the cone angle of the flow guide body is 105°.
[0017] In some embodiments, the side angle of the shunt body is 45°.
[0018] The present invention's material diversion device is installed below the discharge port of the material conveying equipment. The material first passes through the guide body to disperse and then enters the diversion body. After being diverted by the diversion body, it leaves the diversion body, which increases the accumulation area of the material and reduces the accumulation height. This can avoid the local accumulation of material, not only improve the quality of the material accumulated at the bottom, but also solve the congestion problem caused by excessive concentration of personnel, and improve work efficiency.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

They are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a material diversion device, which includes a guide body 10, a diversion body 20, and a guide channel 30. The guide body 10 is conical, with its diameter gradually increasing from top to bottom, creating a slope. This slope disperses the material falling onto it circumferentially, preventing it from concentrating on one side. Preferably, the slope structure results in a cone angle of 105°, which allows for rapid dispersion of the material in the upper guide section, ensuring smooth flow.
[0028] The diversion body 20 is located below the guide body 10. The diversion body 20 is frustoconical in shape, with its diameter gradually increasing from top to bottom, creating a slope from top to bottom to facilitate the flow of the material under gravity. Preferably, this slope results in a side angle of 45° for the diversion body 20.
[0029] In this embodiment, the diameter of the top of the diversion body 20 is preferably smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the guide body 10, so that the material passing through the guide body 10 can be smoothly transferred to the diversion body 20. In some embodiments, the diameter of the top of the diversion body 20 may also be equal to the diameter of the bottom of the guide body 10.
[0030] In this embodiment, the guide groove 30 is arranged circumferentially along the diversion body 20. The width of the guide groove 30 gradually increases from the top to the bottom, so that the material can be diverted to different positions below the diversion body 20, preventing the material from accumulating locally below the diversion body 20.
[0031] The material diversion device of this embodiment is set below the discharge port of the material conveying equipment. The material first passes through the guide body 10 and then enters the diversion body 20. After being diverted by the diversion body 20, it leaves the diversion body 20, which increases the accumulation area of the material and reduces the accumulation height. This can avoid the material from accumulating in a localized area. It can not only improve the quality of the material accumulated at the bottom, but also solve the congestion problem caused by excessive concentration of personnel and improve work efficiency.
[0032] In this embodiment, the outer peripheral wall of the diversion body 20 is preferably provided with baffles 40, and guide grooves 30 are formed between the baffles 40. The guide grooves 30 guide the curved material to slide from the top of the diversion body 20 to the bottom of the diversion body 20 and fall down. In this embodiment, the guide grooves 30 are separated on the diversion body 20 by setting baffles 40. Adjacent guide bars are in a V-shape, narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. The method of separating the guide grooves 30 by setting baffles 40 is simple and easy to process. In this embodiment, the baffles 40 protrude from the surface of the diversion body 20 and have a gradual change in shape, narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. The structure of the baffles 40 helps to guide the curved material into the guide grooves 30 and prevents the curved material from falling directly to the ground along the baffles 40 without passing through the guide grooves 30. The surface of the baffles 40 is preferably an arched arc surface. The surface of the protruding part is smooth and can guide the curved material to slide smoothly into the guide grooves 30.
[0033] In this embodiment, the baffle 40, combined with the 45° side angle structure of the diversion body 20, ensures that the material slides stably within the guide groove 30, preventing material accumulation or overflow due to excessive width or narrowness, thus enabling smooth material sliding and achieving the diversion effect. It should be noted that the number of guide grooves 30 can be set according to requirements; this embodiment specifically uses six. In some embodiments, concave guide grooves 30 can be provided on the diversion body 20 using conventional methods, depending on requirements.
[0034] In this embodiment, the distance by which the baffle 40 protrudes from the diversion body 20 is less than or equal to the distance by which the bottom of the guide body 10 protrudes from the top of the diversion body 20, so that the end of the baffle 40 will not protrude from the guide body 10, thus preventing the material from being stuck there and affecting the flowability of the material in the diversion device.
[0035] The material diversion device in this embodiment also includes an angled baffle 50, with the top corner of the baffle 50 facing the guide body 10. The side wall of the baffle 50 surrounds one of the guide channels 30 inside the baffle 50. When using the material diversion device, the baffle 50 and the guide channel 30 surrounded by the baffle 50 are oriented rearward to block the material from flowing backward and guide the material to the guide channels 30 on both sides of the baffle 50, preventing the material from accumulating below the material conveying equipment and affecting the operation. The top corner of this embodiment can be rounded as needed to make the outline of the top corner a smooth curved surface, preventing the top corner from scratching employees.
[0036] The material diversion device in this embodiment also includes a support base 60, which is fixedly disposed below the diversion body 20. The support base 60 is preferably cylindrical, as the cylindrical structure can withstand greater loads and ensure stability. A flange 70 is provided at the bottom of the support base 60 to fix it to the ground.
[0037] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0038] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
