[0027] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a microbial fermentation device with residual liquid recovery function, including a tank 1, an adjustment mechanism 2 at the bottom of the tank 1, and a disassembly and assembly mechanism 3 on one side of the adjustment mechanism 2.

[0030] The regulating mechanism 2 includes a switch 201 fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank body 1. An L-shaped pipe 205 is provided at the bottom of the switch 201. An upper clamping plate 203 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the switch 201. A lower clamping plate 204 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the L-shaped pipe 205. A sealing gasket 206 is provided on the side opposite to the upper clamping plate 203 of the lower clamping plate 204. A number of locking blocks 207 are distributed around the outer surface of the lower clamping plate 204. The same number of limiting blocks 202 as the locking blocks 207 are distributed around the outer surface of the switch 201.

[0031] Specifically, the sealing gasket 206 is placed on the opposite side of the upper clamping plate 203 and the lower clamping plate 204, several locking blocks 207 are pushed into the corresponding limiting blocks 202, and the L-shaped pipe 205 is rotated to lock the locking blocks 207 into the corresponding limiting blocks 202, which facilitates changing the opening direction of the L-shaped pipe 205 and also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the L-shaped pipe 205.

[0032] Specifically, the upper clamping plate 203 and the lower clamping plate 204 have a semi-circular groove on the opposite side that is adapted to the sealing gasket 206. The locking block 207 is slidably connected to the outside of the upper clamping plate 203. Under the action of the sealing gasket 206, the connection between the L-shaped pipe 205 and the switch 201 is sealed to prevent airborne bacteria from contaminating the fermented bacteria.

[0033] Specifically, the limiting block 202 is provided with a limiting bead 208 inside, and a first spring 209 is provided on one side of the limiting bead 208. The inner surface of the locking block 207 is provided with a semi-circular arc groove that is adapted to the limiting bead 208. Under the action of the first spring 209, the limiting bead 208 is pushed outward, so that the limiting bead 208 always remains in an outward state, so that the limiting bead 208 is locked in the semi-circular arc groove of the locking block 207, thereby stabilizing the locking block 207 in the limiting block 202.

[0034] Specifically, an L-shaped groove is provided on one side of the card block 207, and the card block 207 is slidably connected in the L-shaped groove. A circular groove adapted to the limiting bead 208 is provided on the inner surface of the limiting block 202, and the limiting bead 208 is slidably connected inside the circular groove.

[0035] Furthermore, the sealing gasket 206 is placed on the opposite side of the lower clamping plate 204 and the upper clamping plate 203. After the lower clamping plate 204 is completely attached to the upper clamping plate 203, the locking block 207 is inserted into the L-shaped groove of the limiting block 202. After several locking blocks 207 are inserted into the corresponding limiting blocks 202, the lower clamping plate 204 is rotated. The lower clamping plate 204 drives several locking blocks 207 to rotate simultaneously. The locking blocks 207 are rotated to the top of the limiting bead 208. Under the action of the first spring 209, the limiting bead 208 is pushed upward, so that the limiting bead 208 is inserted into the locking block 207. The locking block 207 is fixed in the limiting block 202 by the corresponding limiting bead 208. By changing the opening direction of the L-shaped pipe 205 in the above manner, the L-shaped pipe 205 can be installed at the bottom of the switch 201.

A first arc-shaped clamping plate 301 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the L-shaped pipe 205. A second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 is provided at the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301.

[0038] Specifically, after the discharge hopper 308 is fully attached to one side of the adapter pad 303, the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 is moved upward and attached to the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301. The discharge hopper 308 is then quickly fixed to one side of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Different discharge hoppers 308 are replaced according to the size of the collection container.

[0039] Specifically, the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301 is symmetrically and movably inserted with a limiting pin 304. A limiting ring 305 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the limiting pin 304. A second spring 306 is provided at the bottom of the limiting ring 305. A straight groove clamping plate 307 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the limiting pin 304. Under the action of the second spring 306, an upward pushing force is applied to the limiting pin 304, thereby pushing the straight groove clamping plate 307 upward and fixing the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 at the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301.

[0040] Specifically, the inner surfaces of the second arc-shaped card plate 302 and the first arc-shaped card plate 301 are provided with slots that are adapted to the adapter pad 303 and the discharge hopper 308. The first arc-shaped card plate 301 is adapted to the second arc-shaped card plate 302. The top of the second arc-shaped card plate 302 is symmetrically provided with straight slots that are adapted to the straight slot card plate 307. The straight slot card plate 307 is located at the bottom of the second arc-shaped card plate 302. With the cooperation of the second arc-shaped card plate 302 and the first arc-shaped card plate 301, the discharge hopper 308 can be fixed on one side of the adapter pad 303. The two straight slot card plates 307 are rotated to a relative position, and the straight slot card plate 307 passes downward through the corresponding straight slot of the second arc-shaped card plate 302. The limiting pin 304 is rotated to rotate the straight slot card plate 307 180 degrees, and the second arc-shaped card plate 302 is stabilized at the bottom of the first arc-shaped card plate 301.

[0041] Further, rotate the limiting pin 304 to rotate the straight groove clamping plate 307 to the straight groove opening of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Move the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 downward to disengage it from the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301. After removing the discharge hopper 308, replace it with a different discharge hopper 308 according to the container. Place the discharge hopper 308 against one side of the adapter pad 303. Attach the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 to the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301. Pass the straight groove clamping plate 307 through the straight groove opening of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Rotate the limiting pin 304 to clamp the straight groove clamping plate 307 at the bottom of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Under the action of the second spring 306, push the limiting ring 305 upward, causing the limiting pin 304 to push upward, applying an upward force to the straight groove clamping plate 307, thus fixing the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 at the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301.

[0042] Working principle: Tank 1 has an existing structure and is the same as the existing disclosed ones. After fermentation in tank 1 is complete, it needs to be collected. The collection container is placed at the discharge hopper 308, and the switch 201 is turned on. The fermented bacteria flow through the L-shaped pipe 205 to the discharge hopper 308 and finally into the collection solution. When it is necessary to change the angle of the L-shaped pipe 205, it is rotated counterclockwise from the bottom of the L-shaped pipe 205. The L-shaped pipe 205 drives the lower clamping plate 204 to rotate. The lower clamping plate 204 drives several locking blocks 207 to rotate from inside the limiting block 202. Then, the L-shaped pipe 205 is pulled down to... The L-shaped pipe 205 is removed from the bottom of the switch 201. The L-shaped pipe 205 is rotated to a suitable angle, and then pushed upwards. The sealing gasket 206 is placed on the opposite side of the lower clamping plate 204 and the upper clamping plate 203. After the lower clamping plate 204 is completely fitted onto the upper clamping plate 203, the locking block 207 is engaged in the L-shaped groove of the limiting block 202. After several locking blocks 207 are engaged in their respective limiting blocks 202, the lower clamping plate 204 is rotated. The lower clamping plate 204 drives several locking blocks 207 to rotate simultaneously, rotating the locking blocks 207 to the top of the limiting bead 208. The first spring 2... Under the action of 09, the limiting bead 208 is pushed upward, causing it to engage with the locking block 207. The locking block 207 is then fixed in the limiting block 202 by the corresponding limiting bead 208. The L-shaped pipe 205 is installed at the bottom of the switch 201, thus completing the opening direction of the L-shaped pipe 205. When it is necessary to change to a different discharge hopper 308, the limiting pin 304 is rotated, rotating the straight groove locking plate 307 to the straight groove opening of the second arc-shaped locking plate 302. The second arc-shaped locking plate 302 is then moved downward, disengaging it from the first arc-shaped locking plate 301. After removing the discharge hopper 308, Depending on the container, change the discharge hopper 308 and attach the discharge hopper 308 to one side of the adapter pad 303. Attach the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 to the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301. Pass the straight groove clamping plate 307 through the straight groove of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Rotate the limiting pin 304 to clamp the straight groove clamping plate 307 at the bottom of the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302. Under the action of the second spring 306, push the limiting ring 305 upward, causing the limiting pin 304 to push upward, applying an upward force to the straight groove clamping plate 307, thus fixing the second arc-shaped clamping plate 302 to the bottom of the first arc-shaped clamping plate 301.
