Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] A fecal fermentation device, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, the system includes a support frame 1, a fermentation tank 2, inlet and outlet 3, heating wire 4, sealing cover 5, air inlet pipe 6, connection port 7, stirring component, moving component, and crushing component. The fermentation tank 2 is connected to the upper part of the support frame 1. The fermentation tank 2 has a double-layer structure for easy water addition and temperature adjustment. The lower part of the fermentation tank 2 is equipped with a control valve for easy material feeding. The upper right side and lower front side of the fermentation tank 2 are connected to the inlet and outlet 3. The heating wire 4 is connected to the inner side of the fermentation tank 2. The sealing cover 5 is connected to the upper part of the fermentation tank 2. The air inlet pipe 6 is connected to the fermentation tank 2. The upper part of the air inlet pipe 6 is connected to the connection port 7. The middle of the sealing cover 5 is equipped with a stirring component for stirring and fermenting the feces. The sealing cover 5 is equipped with a moving component for moving the stirring component up and down to stir. Between the fermentation tank 2 and the stirring component, there is a crushing component for breaking down larger fecal particles.

[0024] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the stirring assembly includes a motor 9, a stirring frame 10, a first sliding sleeve 101, and an air outlet 11. The motor 9 is connected to the left side of the sealing cover 5. The motor 9 and the processor are electrically connected through a control module. A gear is provided on the output shaft of the motor 9. The first sliding sleeve 101 is rotatably connected to the middle of the sealing cover 5. A gear is also provided on the upper part of the first sliding sleeve 101. The two gears mesh with each other. The stirring frame 10 is slidably connected to the first sliding sleeve 101. The stirring frame 10 is rotatably connected to the connection port 7. Multiple air outlets 11 are connected to the outside of the stirring frame 10. Each air outlet 11 is provided with a one-way valve, which allows air to flow out but not in.

[0025] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the moving assembly includes a cam 8, a second sliding sleeve 12, a pulley 13, a sliding frame 14, a roller 15, and a telescopic spring 16. The cam 8 is connected to the upper side of the middle part of the sealing cover 5. The pulley 13 is slidably and rotatably connected to the upper part of the sealing cover 5. The second sliding sleeve 12 is rotatably connected to the pulley 13. The sliding frame 14 is slidably connected to the second sliding sleeve 12. The sliding frame 14 is connected to the stirring frame 10. The roller 15 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the sliding frame 14. The roller 15 is in contact with the cam 8. The telescopic spring 16 is connected between the sliding frame 14 and the second sliding sleeve 12.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the crushing assembly includes a rotating ring 17, a telescopic rod 18, and a crushing frame 19. The rotating ring 17 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the fermentation tank 2. The left and right sides of the rotating ring 17 are connected to the telescopic rod 18. The telescopic ends of the telescopic rod 18 are connected to the crushing frame 19. The crushing frame 19 is slidably connected to the stirring frame 10.

[0027] When manure needs to be fermented, this device can be used. The support frame 1 is brought into contact with the ground, and the manure is poured into the fermentation tank 2. Auxiliary materials are then added to the fermentation tank 2, which has a double-layer structure. The lower inlet / outlet 3 is then plugged with a stopper, and water is introduced through the inlet / outlet 3 to flow into the fermentation tank 2. The heating wire 4 is then activated to heat the water, maintaining it at a suitable temperature. The processor then activates the motor 9 via the control module. The motor 9 drives the gears to rotate, causing the first sliding sleeve 101 to rotate. This rotates the stirring frame 10 to mix the manure and materials, which in turn drives the rotating ring 17 and the crushing frame 19 to rotate. During this rotation and mixing process, the stirring frame 10 drives the sliding frame 14 to rotate, causing the second sliding sleeve 12 to rotate. This, in turn, causes the pulley 13 to move and rotate along the sealing cover 5, causing the roller 15 to rotate. The roller 15 moves and rotates. When the roller 15 moves to the protruding part of the cam 8, it will squeeze the roller 15 to move upward, causing the sliding frame 14 to move upward along the second sliding sleeve 12. The telescopic spring 16 is squeezed, which in turn drives the mixing frame 10 to move upward. When the roller 15 moves to the groove part of the cam 8, the telescopic spring 16 rebounds, and the roller 15 moves downward to reset, causing the sliding frame 14 to move downward along the second sliding sleeve 12, which in turn drives the mixing frame 10 to move downward to reset. The mixing is then carried out by the up and down movement of the mixing frame 10. At the same time, the up and down movement of the mixing frame 10 will cause the crushing frame 19 to move back and forth to break up and crush larger fecal particles. The telescopic rod 18 extends and then retracts, so that the feces and materials can be mixed and fermented horizontally and vertically while breaking up and crushing larger fecal particles, improving the uniformity of mixing, ensuring that the materials and feces are in full contact, and improving the fermentation speed.

[0028] During the stirring and fermentation process, air enters the air inlet pipe 6 and is heated by hot water, causing the hot air to flow into the connection port 7, then into the stirring rack 10, and finally out through the air outlet 11 into the feces and materials, thus achieving aerobic fermentation. Under the action of the one-way valve, only the air flows out and not in, thereby simultaneously heating the water to regulate the temperature for fecal fermentation and introducing air for heating to achieve aerobic fermentation, accelerating the fermentation process, making it highly efficient and environmentally friendly, and improving fermentation efficiency. After fermentation is completed, the motor 9 is turned off, and the control valve is opened to allow the fermented materials to be discharged and collected. Then, the device is cleaned. After cleaning, the control valve is closed, and the plugs on the lower inlet and outlet 3 are removed to allow the water to be discharged and collected.

[0029] Although the present invention has been described with reference to exemplary embodiments, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. The scope of the following claims should be given the broadest interpretation in order to cover all variations and equivalent structures and functions.
