Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temperature-controlled fermentation tanks for wine, specifically a material conveying mechanism for a temperature-controlled fermentation tank for wine. Background Technology

[0002] Temperature-controlled fermentation tanks are core pieces of equipment specifically designed for winemaking. Through integrated jackets, cooling coils, or external temperature control units, they precisely regulate the temperature of the fermentation liquid within the tank, creating the most suitable environment for the survival and metabolism of microorganisms such as yeast. This ensures the stable formation of the wine's flavor and the smooth progress of the fermentation process. These fermentation tanks are typically made of stainless steel and are equipped with precision temperature sensors, automatic control systems, stirring devices, air inlet and exhaust valves, and safety accessories. They enable real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment of key parameters such as fermentation temperature, pressure, and dissolved oxygen levels, effectively preventing fermentation interruption or the formation of undesirable flavor compounds due to temperature fluctuations.

[0003] In the fields of winemaking and bio-fermentation, temperature-controlled fermentation tanks are core equipment for achieving precise fermentation and ensuring the flavor and quality of the wine. Their conveying mechanisms, as a crucial link connecting material pretreatment and the fermentation tank, are responsible for efficiently and hygienically delivering raw materials such as mash and pomace into the tank. However, currently widely used conveying mechanisms face significant technical challenges when handling specific materials. This is especially true for materials like mash and pomace, which have high solids content, high viscosity, and often contain fibrous components, making them highly susceptible to problems during transport.

[0004] Currently, when using screw conveyors to handle this type of material, the solids inside the material tend to squeeze and entangle with each other, or accumulate at bends and diameter changes in the conveying pipe, frequently leading to blockages. This blockage not only severely affects production continuity and reduces fermentation efficiency, but also often requires production interruptions for manual unblocking or equipment disassembly and cleaning, significantly increasing the labor intensity of workers and maintenance costs. Furthermore, poor conveying can lead to uneven feeding, making it difficult to control the material distribution and fermentation conditions within the tank, ultimately adversely affecting the final quality and batch stability of the wine. Therefore, this paper proposes a conveying mechanism for a temperature-controlled fermentation tank to address the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content
