Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food science and engineering technology, and in particular to a portable sealed sauerkraut fermentation box. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional sauerkraut fermentation relies heavily on natural fermentation, which presents numerous problems. Natural fermentation is greatly influenced by environmental microorganisms, with unstable strains and quantities, making the fermentation process difficult to control and often resulting in uneven acid production and significant flavor variations. Furthermore, natural fermentation can breed pathogens and easily lead to excessive nitrite levels, posing food safety risks. In addition, traditional fermentation containers often have poor sealing, making them susceptible to external contamination, and poorly designed components such as drain pipes cause inconvenience in discharging fermentation liquid and cleaning containers, affecting fermentation efficiency and product quality. Moreover, the lack of standardization in sauerkraut fermentation processes across different regions and production enterprises results in inconsistent product quality, hindering the large-scale, high-quality development of the sauerkraut industry.
[0003] However, existing portable, sealed sauerkraut fermentation boxes have the following drawbacks: (1) Traditional fermentation containers are difficult to open and close and complicated to operate, especially inconvenient for the elderly and children. At the same time, the seal is easily damaged by impact during the rapid locking moment, making it difficult for the fermentation process to be in a good anaerobic environment. (2) Traditional water pipe disassembly and assembly require tools and are complicated to operate. Threaded connections are prone to jamming and are difficult to clean thoroughly, which increases the difficulty of liquid discharge and pipe maintenance.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a portable, sealed sauerkraut fermentation box. Utility Model Content
[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved The problem solved by this utility model is to provide a highly practical portable sealed sauerkraut fermentation box, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the difficulty in opening and closing, the complexity of operation, the ease with which the seal may not be tight due to impact during rapid locking, and the need for tools and cumbersome operation for disassembling and assembling the traditional water outlet pipe, as well as the easy jamming of the threaded connection.

The closing assembly 3 includes a slide rod 301 slidably connected to the inner wall of the cavity and slidably connected within the cavity of the cover 2. It serves as a fixed carrier for the insertion rod 304, and its sliding motion synchronously moves the insertion rod 304 to achieve insertion or disengagement between the insertion rod 304 and the slot. A first damper 302 is connected between one side of the slide rod 301 and the inner wall of the cavity, and a first spring 303 is also connected between one side of the slide rod 301 and the inner wall of the cavity. The insertion rod 304 is fixedly inserted through the center of the slide rod 301.

[0018] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows: First step: The closing component 3 achieves quick locking and unlocking of the lid 2 and the body 1 through the lever principle; when it is necessary to open the lid 2, the L-shaped rotating block 306 is moved to rotate around the pivot point in the rectangular groove, which drives the insertion rod 304 to move towards the rectangular groove through the rotating rod 305; at this time, the insertion rod 304 drives the slide rod 301 to slide in the cavity, simultaneously compressing the first spring 303 and the first damper 302, so that the insertion rod 304 is pulled out from the slot of the body 1, releasing the locked state; when closing the lid 2, the L-shaped rotating block 306 is released, the elastic force of the first spring 303 pushes the slide rod 301 to reset, and the insertion rod 304 is reinserted into the slot, completing the sealing and locking; the first damper 302 buffers the reset speed to avoid impact damage to the components; The second step: The convenient component 6 enables quick installation and removal of the water outlet pipe 5 through an elastic snap-fit structure. When it is necessary to disassemble the water outlet pipe 5, press down on the annular clamp 601 to make it slide in the annular groove, compressing the second spring 603 and the second damper 602. The inner wall of the annular clamp 601 presses against the inclined surface of the conical slider 604, forcing the conical slider 604 to slide outward along the sliding hole and disengage from the slot on the surface of the water outlet pipe 5. At this time, the water outlet pipe 5 can be directly pulled out. During installation, insert the water outlet pipe 5 into the connecting pipe 4, loosen the annular clamp 601, and the elastic force of the second spring 603 pushes the annular clamp 601 to reset. The conical slider 604 re-enters the slot under the reset pressure of the annular clamp 601, completing the fixation. The limiting block cooperates with the limiting groove to ensure that the conical slider 604 slides in a straight line and avoids deviation.
