Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermentation tank technology, and in particular to a bottom-type fermenter heat exchanger that can achieve sensitive temperature control and facilitate observation of the internal operation of the fermenter. Background Technology
[0002] When heating and controlling the temperature of existing glass fermenters, the temperature is usually controlled by wrapping the outside of the glass tank with a heating blanket. The disadvantages of this method are that the temperature of the heating blanket continues to rise during the reaction process, making the temperature control insensitive. In addition, because the heating blanket is not transparent, some parts of the inside of the fermenter cannot be observed. Utility Model Content
[0003] This application provides a bottom-type fermenter heat exchanger that enables sensitive temperature control and facilitates observation of the internal operation of the fermenter. This solves the problems in the prior art where the temperature of the heating blanket continuously rises during the reaction process, resulting in insensitive temperature control, and the fact that the opaque heating blanket makes it impossible to observe parts of the fermenter's interior.
[0004] This application provides a bottom-type fermenter heat exchanger, including a shell; A baffle, welded to the center of the interior of the housing, is used to disperse the water flow. A water inlet connector is welded to the lower side of the housing and at a position perpendicular to the baffle; the water inlet connector is perpendicular to the baffle.

The three connecting rod joints are arranged in a triangular pattern. The positioning rod connector is welded to the housing and positioned at a 45° angle to the water inlet connector. The positioning rod connector is used to connect the heating plate connecting rod.
[0005] The water circulation system enables rapid response to temperature changes, avoiding the problem of continuous temperature rise of the heating blanket and achieving sensitive temperature control. The bottom heat exchange method does not affect the transparent observation area of the fermenter, making it easy to observe the internal operation of the fermenter. The scientific design of the water circulation path improves heat exchange efficiency. The design of multiple connection points ensures stable operation of the equipment.

[0010] In some designs, the connecting rod joint is made of 304 stainless steel and is used to connect the glass jar fixing rod.
[0011] In some designs, the number of positioning rods is four, and the four positioning rod joints are evenly distributed at the bottom of the housing.
[0012] In some designs, the positioning rod is made of 304 stainless steel.
[0013] In some designs, the inlet connector is connected to an inlet water pipe with controllable start / stop via a flexible hose.

[0018] The embodiments of this application provide a bottom-type fermenter heat exchanger that enables sensitive temperature control and facilitates observation of the internal operation of the fermenter. This solves the problems in the prior art where the temperature of the heating blanket continuously rises during the reaction process, resulting in insensitive temperature control, and the fact that the opaque heating blanket makes it impossible to observe parts of the fermenter's interior.
[0019] Specifically, such as Figure 1-7 As shown in the figure, this application provides a bottom-type fermenter heat exchanger, including a shell 1, a baffle 2, a water inlet connector 3, a water outlet connector 4, a connecting rod connector 5, and a positioning rod connector 6. The baffle 2 is welded to the center of the shell 1 and is used to disperse the water flow. The water inlet connector 3 is welded to the lower side of the shell 1 and perpendicular to the baffle 2, and is perpendicular to the baffle 2. The water outlet connector 4 is welded to the shell 1 in the direction perpendicular to the baffle 2 and is at a position 180° from the water inlet connector 3. The connecting rod connector 5 is welded to the shell 1 and is at a position 30° from the water outlet connector 4. Positionally, the three connecting rod joints 5 are arranged in a triangular pattern, providing three-point stable support. The positioning rod joint 6 is welded to the shell 1 and positioned at 45° to the water inlet joint 3. The positioning rod joint 6 is used to connect the heating plate connecting rod. The water circulation system enables rapid response to temperature changes, avoiding the problem of continuous temperature rise of the heating blanket and achieving sensitive temperature control. The bottom heat exchange method does not affect the transparent observation area of the fermenter, facilitating observation of the internal operation of the fermenter. The scientific design of the water circulation path improves heat exchange efficiency. The multiple connection point design ensures stable operation of the equipment.
[0020] Specifically, the shell 1 is made of 304 stainless steel. Using 304 stainless steel for the shell 1 improves its corrosion resistance and structural strength. The shell 1 is designed as the core load-bearing component of the bottom heat exchanger, and its interior forms a water flow channel.
[0021] Preferred, such as Figure 7 As shown, the baffle 2 is made of 304 stainless steel. The use of 304 stainless steel for the baffle 2 improves its corrosion resistance and structural strength, and also disperses the water flow, ensuring that the cooling water is evenly distributed throughout the heat exchange area.
[0022] In the embodiments of this application, the water inlet connector 3 is made of 304 stainless steel. One end of the water inlet connector 3 is connected to the inner cavity of the shell 1, and the other end of the water inlet connector 3 is used to connect to the water inlet circulation pipe. The use of 304 stainless steel improves the corrosion resistance and structural strength of the water inlet connector 3. Cooling water enters the interior of the shell 1 through the water inlet connector 3, and the baffle 2 disperses the water flow to achieve uniform heat exchange.
[0023] In some embodiments, the water outlet connector 4 is made of 304 stainless steel. The inner ring at the bottom end of the water outlet connector 4 communicates with the inner cavity of the housing 1, and the top end of the water outlet connector 4 is used to connect to the water outlet circulation pipe. Using 304 stainless steel improves the corrosion resistance and structural strength of the water outlet connector 4, and the water after heat exchange is discharged through the water outlet connector 4.
[0024] In some embodiments, the connecting rod joint 5 is made of 304 stainless steel and is used to connect the fixing rod of the glass jar. The use of 304 stainless steel in the connecting rod joint 5 improves its overall corrosion resistance and structural strength.
[0025] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5-6 As shown, there are four positioning rods, and the four positioning rod connectors 6 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the housing 1. The four evenly distributed positioning rod connectors 6 ensure a stable connection of the heating plate.
[0026] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, three connecting rod joints 5 are fixed to the glass tank fixing rod, four positioning rod joints 6 are fixed to the heating plate connecting rod, the water inlet joint 3 is connected to the water inlet pipe with controllable start and stop via a hose, and the water outlet joint 4 is connected to the water outlet pipe with a check valve via a hose to achieve water circulation. The thermometer inside the fermenter is interconnected with the heating plate and the water inlet pipe with controllable start and stop. When heating is needed, the heating plate works and the water inlet stops. When cooling is needed, the water inlet starts and the heating plate stops working, thus achieving sensitive temperature control and feedback inside the fermenter.
[0027] In this embodiment, the positioning rod is made of 304 stainless steel, which improves the overall corrosion resistance of the positioning rod.
[0028] In some embodiments, the water inlet connector 3 is connected to a water inlet pipe with controllable start and stop via a hose.
[0029] In some embodiments, the water outlet connector 4 is connected to a water outlet pipe with a check valve via a flexible hose to achieve water circulation. The check valve prevents water from flowing back into the system.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present invention.
[0031] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
