Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kimchi fermentation technology, and more specifically, to a kimchi fermentation and storage device. Background Technology

[0002] Kimchi fermentation is a process in which lactic acid bacteria break down the sugars in vegetables to produce lactic acid under anaerobic conditions. This acidifies the vegetables, creating a unique flavor, while simultaneously inhibiting unwanted bacteria and ensuring safety. Specialized storage containers must be airtight, anaerobic, and resistant to acids and alkalis, such as traditional earthenware jars, glass jars, or kimchi jars with water seals. These containers maintain the fermentation environment, prevent contamination, aid fermentation, and extend shelf life.

[0003] Publication No. (CN216639444U) discloses a kimchi fermentation and storage device, including a kimchi jar and a storage rack. The kimchi jar has a lid with several one-way ventilation holes. A sealing cap is located at each ventilation hole, with one end hinged to the lid and completely covering the ventilation holes. A pull ring is located on the top of the sealing cap. The storage rack consists of multiple compartments, each containing one kimchi jar. Each compartment has a pull rod and a buckle. The buckle is used to connect the pull ring, and the pull rod is used to pull or press the sealing cap. This device allows gas to escape from the kimchi jar while preventing airborne bacteria from entering and preventing excessive gas accumulation that could cause the jar to burst. It also saves time and labor costs associated with manually opening the lid.

[0004] However, this kimchi fermentation and storage device has the following drawbacks: Although it can immediately seal the fermentation tank when venting gas, if the gas vented from one of the tanks is too high, kimchi fragments will be sprayed out. If these fragments get stuck at the sealing joint, the sealing effect will be poor and bacteria will grow, ultimately making the kimchi inedible. It cannot achieve automatic sealing while blocking kimchi fragments in the venting gas, and it cannot quickly disassemble the blocking filter plate to continue subsequent filtration. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a kimchi fermentation and storage device to solve the problem that the prior art cannot achieve automatic sealing while blocking kimchi debris in the exhaust gas.

[0026] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a kimchi fermentation and storage device, including a cabinet 1 and a tank 2. The top of the tank 2 is threadedly connected to a cap 3. The inner wall of the cap 3 is movably connected to a movable plate 4. The inner wall of the cap 3 is fixedly connected to an elastic element 7. The outer side of the movable plate 4 is fixedly connected to a gasket 8. The inner wall of the cap 3 is slidably connected to two pull posts 12. The outer side of each pull post 12 is fitted with an elastic element 2 13. The inner wall of the cap 3 is detachably connected to a filter plate 15. The end of the gasket 8 away from the movable plate 4 is in contact with the inner wall of the cap 3. The outer side of the elastic element 2 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cap 3.

[0028] With the cooperation of the movable plate 4, the elastic element 7, and the gasket 8, the gas in the tank 2 is sealed after being discharged. By pulling the pull column 12 and affecting the elastic element 13, the filter plate 15 can be quickly disassembled and cleaned to avoid clogging. The automatic sealing design prevents external impurities from entering. At the same time, the filter plate 15 filters the debris in the gas, preventing these debris from being ejected.

[0029] Example 2: Based on Example 1, in order to facilitate the movement of the movable plate 4, a connecting column 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable plate 4, and pressure blocks 6 are fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting column 5. An annular groove 9 is opened on the inner wall of the cap 3, and a through hole 10 is opened on the inner wall of the cap 3. The connecting column 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cap 3, and the pressure block 6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cap 3. The end of the pad ring 8 away from the movable plate 4 is engaged with the inner wall of the annular groove 9, and the end of the elastic element 7 away from the cap 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pressure block 6.

[0030] When the movable plate 4 is pushed open, the connecting column 5 connected to the movable plate 4 will squeeze the elastic element 7. After being squeezed, the elastic element 7 will release space, allowing the gasket 8 to leave the interior of the annular groove 9. At this time, the gas will leave through the through hole 10. As the gas is discharged, the elastic element 7 will immediately exert appropriate potential energy to make the movable plate 4 swing, causing the gasket 8 to be re-locked inside the annular groove 9, thus preventing external impurities from entering the interior of the tank 2 and contaminating the kimchi.

[0031] Example 3: Based on Example 2, in order to facilitate the movement of the pull column 12, a bearing ring 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the pull column 12 away from the second elastic element 13, and a pressure plate 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the pull column 12 away from the bearing ring 14. The outer side of the filter plate 15 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the through hole 10. The end of the bearing ring 14 away from the pull column 12 is in contact with the outer side of the filter plate 15. The outer side of the second elastic element 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cap 3. The end of the second elastic element 13 away from the cap 3 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the pressure plate 11. The outer side of the pressure plate 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cap 3.

[0032] Meanwhile, when the gas is released, a small amount of kimchi scraps will be sprayed out with the gas. At this time, the filter plate 15 intercepts the scraps, preventing them from getting stuck in the gaps and affecting the overall sealing. Each time it is taken out, it can be pulled by pulling the pull column 12. At this time, the pull column 12 will squeeze the elastic element 13 through the pressure plate 11 to meet the range of movement required for the bearing ring 14 to leave the filter plate 15. This allows for quick disassembly and cleaning of the filter plate 15, avoiding the situation where the gas pressure inside the tank 2 is too high due to the blockage of the filter plate 15.

[0033] The working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0034] First, after the kimchi undergoes prolonged fermentation in tank 2, gas is produced. The force of this gas pushes open the movable plate 4. The opening of the movable plate 4, through the connecting column 5, compresses the elastic element 7. This compression releases the space, allowing the gasket ring 8 to leave the annular groove 9. The gas then exits through the through hole 10. As the gas is expelled, the elastic element 7 immediately generates sufficient potential energy to cause the movable plate 4 to swing, causing the gasket ring 8 to re-lock inside the annular groove 9, preventing external impurities from entering the tank 2 and affecting the kimchi production. Pollution occurs during gas release; a small amount of kimchi scraps may be ejected with the gas. The filter plate 15 intercepts these scraps, preventing them from getting stuck in the gaps and affecting the overall seal. Each time the item is removed, the pull column 12 is pulled, which compresses the elastic element 13 through the pressure plate 11, allowing the bearing ring 14 to move away from the filter plate 15. This enables the filter plate 15 to be quickly disassembled and cleaned, preventing the high gas pressure inside the tank 2 due to the filter plate 15 becoming blocked.
