Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of brewing, specifically to a sterilization device for brewing jars. Background Technology
[0002] First, the material of the brewing jar has a significant impact on the brewing effect and quality. Common materials for brewing jars include ceramic and wood. Ceramic brewing jars have a long history and cultural significance, characterized by good heat retention, durability, and diverse and aesthetically pleasing shapes. During the firing process, ceramic brewing jars undergo high-temperature firing and double-sided glazing, ensuring that the liquor does not leak through the jar walls and preventing evaporation. Furthermore, the trace elements in ceramic materials help accelerate the aging of the liquor, contributing to its quality and taste. Wooden brewing jars typically have a barrel-shaped structure, making them durable and resistant to breakage. Wood itself is breathable, better preserving the original flavor of the liquor. However, when using wooden brewing jars, it is necessary to remove any odors to avoid affecting the quality of the liquor. Sterilization is required before using the brewing jars to ensure the quality of the finished liquor.
[0003] The Chinese patent publication CN222304412U discloses a sterilization device for brewing jars. Its key technical features include a frame, with rotating rods rotatably connected to both inner sides of the frame, and a support frame fixedly connected between the two rotating rods. A drive motor is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the frame, and one end of one of the two rotating rods penetrates the side wall of the frame and is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. A bottom plate is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the support frame, and a top plate is slidably connected to the upper part of the support frame. Both the bottom plate and the top plate have support grooves. Ultraviolet lamps are fixedly connected to both inner sides of the frame.
[0004] In the above solution, the wine jar is placed in a support frame, then fixed with a base plate, and finally sterilized by a fixed ultraviolet lamp. This solution has the following drawbacks: the ultraviolet lamp uses a fixed irradiation mode, resulting in a small irradiation range and uneven irradiation. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sterilization device for brewing jars used in brewing, in order to solve the problem that the ultraviolet lamp adopts a fixed irradiation mode, resulting in a small irradiation range and uneven irradiation.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, the present utility model adopts the following technical solution: a sterilization device for a brewing jar, comprising a top cover, the top cover being rotatably connected to the top surface of a frame via a hinge, a U-shaped frame being rotatably arranged inside the frame, a first motor being fixed to the front side of the outer wall of the frame, the output shaft of the first motor passing through the frame and being fixedly connected to the front side of the U-shaped frame, a movable hole being opened on the top surface of the top cover, a second motor being movably arranged inside the movable hole, the output shaft of the second motor passing through the movable hole and being fixed to a turntable, and a plurality of ultraviolet lamps being detachably installed on the bottom surface of the turntable.
[0007] Preferably, a top plate is detachably installed inside the U-shaped frame. The top surface of the top plate has a plurality of first bearing holes, and the bottom surface of the U-shaped frame has a plurality of second bearing holes. The plurality of second bearing holes correspond to the plurality of first bearing holes, and the plurality of second bearing holes are all larger than the plurality of first bearing holes. The top surface of the top plate and the bottom surface of the U-shaped frame both have a plurality of first threaded holes, and a first screw is threaded into each of the plurality of first threaded holes.
[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the U-shaped frame is provided with sliding grooves on both the front and rear sides, and the top plate is fixed with sliding blocks on both the front and rear sides. The two sliding blocks are slidably arranged in the two sliding grooves respectively.
[0009] Preferably, a mounting shell is fixed to the top surface of the top cover, a guide rail is fixed to the inner top surface of the mounting shell, a connecting plate is fixed to the bottom surface of the slider of the guide rail, and the bottom surface of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the second motor.
[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the turntable is provided with a plurality of second threaded holes, and the top surfaces of the plurality of ultraviolet lamps are each fixed with the threaded end of a second screw, which is respectively connected to the internal threads of the plurality of second threaded holes.

[0021] The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] like Figures 1-4As shown, a sterilization device for a brewing jar includes a top cover 1, which is rotatably connected to the top surface of a frame 2 via a hinge. A U-shaped frame 3 is rotatably mounted inside the frame 2. A first motor 4 is fixed to the front side of the outer wall of the frame 2. The output shaft of the first motor 4 passes through the frame 2 and is fixedly connected to the front side of the U-shaped frame 3. A movable hole 5 is provided on the top surface of the top cover 1. A second motor 6 is movably mounted inside the movable hole 5. The output shaft of the second motor 6 passes through the movable hole 5 and is fixed to a turntable 7. The bottom surface of the turntable 7 is detachably mounted. The U-shaped frame 3 is equipped with several ultraviolet lamps 8. A top plate 9 is detachably installed inside the frame. Several first bearing holes 10 are opened on the top surface of the top plate 9. Several second bearing holes 11 are opened on the bottom surface of the U-shaped frame 3. The several second bearing holes 11 correspond to the several first bearing holes 10. The several second bearing holes 11 are larger than the several first bearing holes 10. Several first threaded holes 12 are opened on the top surface of the top plate 9 and the bottom surface of the U-shaped frame 3. A first screw 13 is threaded into each of the several first threaded holes 12.
[0023] In use, the staff first places the brewing jar to be sterilized into the U-shaped frame 3. At this time, the second bearing hole 11 on the U-shaped frame 3 can support the bottom of the jar, providing a stable support base for the jar. Next, the top plate 9 is placed on top of the jar. The top plate 9 and the first bearing hole 10 are used to effectively limit the top of the jar, preventing the jar from shaking or shifting during subsequent operations. Then, through the tight cooperation between the first screw 13 and the first threaded hole 12, the top plate 9 and the U-shaped frame 3 are firmly connected and fixed together, thereby achieving stable and reliable limiting and fixing of the jar, ensuring that the jar remains stable during the sterilization process.
[0024] After securing the wine jar, the staff closed the top cover 1 to create a relatively enclosed environment for sterilization. Then, the ultraviolet lamp 8 and the first motor 4 were activated in sequence. The first motor 4 started running, and its output shaft drove the U-shaped frame 3 and the wine jar fixed inside to rotate slowly. This rotation method allowed the surface of the wine jar to be exposed to the irradiation range of the ultraviolet lamp 8, achieving a relatively uniform initial disinfection of the wine jar. At the same time, the staff activated the second motor 6, which drove the turntable 7 to rotate, causing the ultraviolet lamp 8 installed on the bottom of the turntable 7 to rotate as well. The rotation of the ultraviolet lamp 8 further expanded the irradiation sterilization range, reduced the irradiation dead zones that may exist in the traditional fixed irradiation mode, improved the irradiation uniformity of the ultraviolet lamp 8, and ensured that the wine jar could receive a more comprehensive and thorough sterilization treatment.
[0025] Through the coordinated action of the top cover 1, frame 2, U-shaped frame 3, first motor 4, movable hole 5, second motor 6, turntable 7 and ultraviolet lamp 8, compared with the traditional sterilization device that can only rotate the wine jar, this device can not only rotate the wine jar, but also rotate the ultraviolet lamp 8 at the same time, which increases the irradiation range and effectively avoids the problem of incomplete sterilization caused by uneven irradiation, thus significantly improving the sterilization effect.
[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 3 is provided with sliding grooves 14 on both the front and rear sides, and the top plate 9 is fixed with sliding blocks 15 on both the front and rear sides. The two sliding blocks 15 are slidably arranged in the two sliding grooves 14 respectively.
[0027] In use, when the staff puts the top plate 9 into the U-shaped frame 3, the sliding block 15 slides inside the slide groove 14, which can limit the top plate 9 and ensure that the top plate 9 will not shift or shake during the up and down movement, thus improving stability.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a mounting shell 16 is fixed to the top surface of the top cover 1, a guide rail 17 is fixed to the inner top surface of the mounting shell 16, a connecting plate 18 is fixed to the bottom surface of the slider of the guide rail 17, and the bottom surface of the connecting plate 18 is fixedly connected to the second motor 6.
[0029] During use, the staff activates the guide rail 17 inside the mounting housing 16, causing the slider on the guide rail 17 to move back and forth, which in turn moves the connecting plate 18, the second motor 6, the turntable 7, and the ultraviolet lamp 8 back and forth, further expanding the irradiation range and improving the comprehensiveness and uniformity of sterilization.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the turntable 7 is provided with several second threaded holes 19, and the top surfaces of several ultraviolet lamps 8 are all fixed with the threaded ends of the second screws 20, which are respectively connected to the internal threads of the several second threaded holes 19. The top surface of the top cover 1 is fixed with a U-shaped rod 21, and the outer wall of the U-shaped rod 21 is fixed with a rubber sleeve 22.
[0031] During use, the operator rotates the second screw 20 out of the second threaded hole 19 to remove the ultraviolet lamp 8 from the turntable 7. Similarly, when installing the ultraviolet lamp 8, simply align the second screw 20 with the second threaded hole 19 and then tighten it to securely install the ultraviolet lamp 8 on the turntable 7. This facilitates the daily maintenance and management of the ultraviolet lamp 8 and allows for timely inspection or replacement of the ultraviolet lamp 8 according to actual conditions. When staff need to open the top cover 1 to inspect the inside of the device, place or remove wine jars, etc., they only need to hold the U-shaped rod 21 and apply force using the leverage point provided by the U-shaped rod 21 to easily rotate the top cover 1 around the hinge to open it. The operation is effortless and convenient. The rubber sleeve 22 further improves the comfort and safety of use. It can increase the friction between the hand and the U-shaped rod 21, prevent the hand from slipping, avoid accidents caused by improper operation, and at the same time reduce the hard contact between the hand and the U-shaped rod 21, making the staff feel more comfortable during operation and reducing hand fatigue.
[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
