Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beer processing technology, and in particular to a craft beer brewing production equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With consumers' ever-increasing demands for beer quality and personalization, the craft beer industry has experienced rapid growth in recent years. Craft beer, with its unique flavor, rich taste, and diverse brewing techniques, distinguishes itself from mass-produced industrial beer and is widely loved by consumers.

[0003] In the mashing process of craft beer brewing, the conversion of malt starch into fermentable sugars is crucial. This relies on the sufficient contact between the enzymes in the malt and the substrate, making the uniform mixing of malt and water extremely important. Typically, the mashing tank relies on a stirring device to achieve this mixing. A stirring shaft is usually vertically mounted in the center of the tank, with several blades fixed to it. When the equipment is turned on, the motor drives the stirring shaft and blades to rotate, applying force to the malt and water, causing them to flow within the tank and achieving the mixing purpose.

[0004] In common straight-blade or angled-blade impellers, the flow during mixing is mainly unidirectional, either axial or radial, failing to create a comprehensive, multi-angle mixing flow field within the tank. This results in insufficient mixing of materials, leading to significant concentration gradients, which in turn affects the overall efficiency and uniformity of the saccharification reaction, ultimately causing unstable beer quality and deviations in taste and flavor.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a beer craft brewing equipment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the craft beer brewing equipment provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the internal structure. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a partial sectional view of the side. Figure 4 for Figure 3 The enlarged schematic diagram of part A shown below; Figure 5 for Figure 2 The side sectional view shown is shown below; Figure 6 for Figure 5 The enlarged schematic diagram of section B is shown below; Figure 7 for Figure 5The diagram shows an enlarged view of section C. The craft beer brewing equipment includes: a mashing tank body 1, with a cover plate 11 on top of the mashing tank body 1. A drive component 12 is mounted on the top of the cover plate 11, and a rotating shaft 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive component 12. The rotating shaft 13 penetrates the mashing tank body 1 and extends into its interior. Two sets of stirring components 2 are symmetrically arranged on the outside of the rotating shaft 13. Each set of stirring components 2 has a steering assembly 3 inside. The steering assembly 3 includes a receiving groove 31, several rotating grooves 32, and several protrusions 33. The receiving groove 31 is located inside the stirring component 2, and a toothed plate 34 is slidably connected inside the receiving groove 31. Several rotating grooves 32 are symmetrically located inside the stirring component 2. Each rotating groove 32 is externally rotated... A rotating tooth 35 is connected, the outer side of which meshes with the outer side of the toothed plate 34. A rod 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the toothed plate 34. The rod 36 passes through the stirring component 2 and extends to its outer side. An elastic element 37 for resetting the toothed plate 34 is sleeved on the outer side of the rod 36. A sliding member 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the rod 36. A plurality of protrusions 33 are arranged in a circumferential array at the bottom of the cover plate 11. The bottom of the sliding member 38 is slidably connected to the bottom of the plurality of protrusions 33. A cross blade 39 is fixedly connected inside the rotating tooth 35. The cross blade 39 passes through the stirring component 2 and extends to its outer side. Two sets of wall scraping assemblies 4 are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the rotating shaft 13 for cleaning the saccharified substances adhering to the inner wall of the saccharification tank body 1.

[0019] The drive component 12 provides power support for the whole, and the cover plate 11 prevents external impurities from falling into the interior of the saccharification tank body 1. The stirring component 2 provides the mounting base for the steering assembly 3 and drives the steering assembly 3 to rotate synchronously. By setting guide grooves on the toothed plate 34 and installing guide rods inside the receiving groove 31, the sliding stability can be increased when the toothed plate 34 moves. At the same time, the sliding component 38 uses rolling wheels to reduce hard contact with the protrusion 33 and increase service life. The steering assembly 3 can turn the cross blade component 39, optimize the stirring angle and range, promote more thorough mixing of materials, and improve the uniformity of the saccharification reaction.

[0020] Each of the scraping components 4 includes two support rods 41, which are equidistantly installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 13. The ends of the two support rods 41 are fixedly connected to a cleaning component 42, and the outside of the cleaning component 42 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the saccharification tank body 1.

[0021] By sliding the cleaning component 42 to the inner wall of the saccharification tank body 1, the saccharification substances adhering to the tank wall can be cleaned in a timely manner, avoiding their impact on the saccharification reaction and tank cleanliness, and ensuring the normal progress of the reaction and the hygiene of the equipment.

[0022] Among them, cleaning component 42 includes, but is not limited to, silicone sheet, sponge and non-woven fabric; In this example, the cleaning component 42 is preferably a silicone plate. The silicone plate is soft and elastic, allowing it to conform closely to the irregular surface of the inner wall of the mashing tank body 1, effectively cleaning mashed substances from every corner without leaving any blind spots. Simultaneously, the silicone plate is chemically stable and does not easily react with various substances during the mashing process, thus not interfering with the mashing reaction and ensuring that the quality of beer brewing remains unaffected.

[0023] Each of the rotating grooves 32 has two sets of sealing components 5 inside. Each set of sealing components 5 includes an annular groove 51. The annular groove 51 is formed on the inner wall of the rotating groove 32. An annular member 52 is slidably connected inside the annular groove 51. The outside of the annular member 52 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating tooth 35.

[0024] The ring component 52 is connected to the rotating gear 35 to prevent material from entering the rotating groove 32 and affecting the rotation of the rotating gear 35, thus ensuring the stable operation of the steering assembly 3 and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0025] Each set of stirring components 2 is provided with a protective component 6 on its top. The protective component 6 includes a mounting plate 61, which is installed on the top of the stirring component 2. The interior of the mounting plate 61 is slidably connected to the exterior of the extension rod 36. An extension member 62 is provided on the top of the mounting plate 61, and the top end of the extension member 62 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding member 38.

[0026] The mounting plate 61 and the extension 62 can protect the internal components of the steering assembly 3, preventing them from being interfered with or damaged by external factors, and ensuring the normal operation of the steering assembly 3.

[0027] Among them, the extension component 62 includes, but is not limited to, telescopic tubes, corrugated tubes, and foldable telescopic sheets; In this example, the extension component 62 is preferably a telescopic tube. The telescopic tube has good extensibility and flexibility, allowing it to flexibly change length and angle to follow the movement of the stirring component 2, ensuring comprehensive and uninterrupted protection for components such as the extension rod 36. Its structure is relatively simple, easy to install and maintain, and its cost is moderate.

[0028] The cross blade component 39 is provided with a crushing component 7 on its exterior. The crushing component 7 includes a mounting block 71, which is mounted on the exterior of the cross blade component 39. Several toothed cutters 72 for cutting large particles are fixedly connected to the exterior of the mounting block 71. The toothed cutters 72 are arranged in an alternating pattern.

[0029] The toothed cutter 72 can cut and crush large particles, making the particles smaller, increasing the contact area between the material and the enzyme, and accelerating the saccharification reaction.

[0030] The bottom of the rotating shaft 13 is fixedly connected to a spiral blade 8 for stirring the material at the bottom of the saccharification tank body 1.

[0031] The spiral blades 8 can stir the material at the bottom of the saccharification tank 1, preventing sedimentation and allowing the bottom material to fully participate in the saccharification reaction, thus improving the overall saccharification effect.

[0032] An auxiliary component 9 is provided on the outside of the main body 1 of the saccharification tank. The auxiliary component 9 includes a control panel 91 and an observation window 92. Both the control panel 91 and the observation window 92 are installed on the outside of the main body 1 of the saccharification tank.

[0033] The control panel 91 allows operators to easily control the equipment and adjust the stirring parameters, while the observation window 92 facilitates real-time observation of the stirring situation inside the tank, improving operational convenience and the timeliness of reaction monitoring.

[0034] The working principle of the craft beer brewing equipment provided by this utility model is as follows: First, the main body 1 of the saccharification tank serves as the supporting component. At the top of the main body 1, a cover plate 11 acts as a seal and mounting platform. A drive unit 12 is installed on the top of the cover plate 11. After the drive unit 12 is activated, its output end drives a rotating shaft 13 fixedly connected to it to rotate. The rotating shaft 13 vertically penetrates the main body 1 of the saccharification tank, transmitting power to the tank. Then, two sets of stirring components 2 are symmetrically arranged outside the rotating shaft 13. As the rotating shaft 13 rotates, the stirring components 2 rotate synchronously. Inside each set of stirring components 2, a steering assembly 3 is provided. Inside the steering assembly 3, a receiving groove 31 is formed inside the stirring component 2, and a toothed plate 34 can slide within the receiving groove 31. A connecting rod 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the toothed plate 34, extending through the stirring component 2 and reaching the outside, with its top end connected to a sliding member 38. At the bottom of the cover plate 11, several protrusions 33 are arranged in a circumferential array. The bottom of the sliding member 38 forms a sliding connection with the bottom of these protrusions 33. When the stirring component 2 rotates with the rotating shaft 13, the sliding component 38 slides along the protrusion 33, causing the extension rod 36 and the toothed plate 34 connected thereto to slide within the receiving groove 31. Since the toothed plate 34 meshes with the rotating teeth 35 externally connected to the rotating groove 32, the sliding of the toothed plate 34 causes the rotating teeth 35 to rotate, thereby causing the cross-shaped blade component 39 fixed inside the rotating teeth 35 to change direction. Simultaneously, outside the rotating shaft 13, two sets of wall scraping assemblies 4 also operate with the rotation of the rotating shaft 13. Each set of wall scraping assemblies 4 consists of two support rods 41 equidistantly mounted outside the rotating shaft 13 and a cleaning component 42 fixed to the end of the support rods 41. During equipment operation, the cleaning component 42 maintains a sliding connection with the inner wall of the saccharification tank body 1, thereby cleaning the saccharified substances adhering to the inner wall.

[0035] Compared with related technologies, the craft beer brewing equipment provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: Power is provided by the drive unit 12, and the cover plate 11 prevents impurities from falling in. The stirring component 2 cooperates with the steering assembly 3, allowing the cross-shaped blades 39 to change the stirring angle and range, promoting thorough mixing of materials and improving the uniformity of the saccharification reaction. The wall scraping assembly 4 can promptly clean saccharified substances from the tank wall, ensuring the normal progress of the saccharification reaction and the cleanliness of the tank, ultimately contributing to improving the quality and production efficiency of craft beer brewing.
