Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermentation tank technology, and in particular to an environmentally friendly fermentation tank that is easy to control. Background Technology

[0002] A fermenter is an industrial device used for microbial fermentation. Its main body is typically a cylindrical structure made of stainless steel, with a volume ranging from 1 m³ to several hundred m³. The design of the fermenter adjusts temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and nutrients according to the growth requirements of the microorganisms. Homogenization is ensured through agitation and aeration to prevent sedimentation and increase yield, while maintaining sterile conditions to prevent contamination.

[0003] Microorganisms produce various gases during degradation or metabolism within a fermenter, some of which are detrimental to the fermentation process. Normally, these gases are expelled through the fermenter's own vent pipe. However, to ensure thorough fermentation, the raw materials are typically stirred during the process. Stirring can cause splashing of the materials, and if this splashed material enters or clogs the vent pipe, it will affect the venting efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided an environmentally friendly fermenter that is easy to control, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a convenient and environmentally friendly fermentation tank. A high-pressure blower generates suction, drawing gas into the air pipe through the main and auxiliary air inlets. The gas is then filtered through an air filter before being discharged. If raw materials are drawn in, they enter the outer shell through the main air inlet and adhere to the outer wall of the cylinder, thus isolating the materials and preventing splashes from directly entering the air pipe and causing blockages.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an environmentally friendly fermenter that is easy to control, comprising a tank body, an air pipe, a protective mechanism, an air filter, a high-pressure blower, and a motor, wherein one end of the air pipe extends through the upper outer wall of one side of the tank body to the interior; The protective mechanism includes a base and a housing. One side of the base is threaded onto one end of the air pipe, and one side of the housing is threaded onto the other side of the base. Multiple main air inlets are provided at the front and rear ends of the housing. A cylinder is fixedly installed in the middle of the other side of the base, and auxiliary air inlets are provided at the upper and lower ends of the cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is provided at the upper part of the middle section of the air pipe, and the other end of the air pipe is fixedly connected to the input end of the air filter by bolts. The input end of the high-pressure blower is fixedly connected to the output end of the air filter by bolts.

[0008] Furthermore, a support plate is fixedly installed at the lower middle part of the tank body, and the air filter and high-pressure blower are both fixedly installed at the upper part of the support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a controller is fixedly installed on the lower part of the outer wall at the front end of the tank, and a discharge pipe is installed on one side of the lower end of the tank. The controller is electrically connected to a solenoid valve, a high-pressure blower, and a motor.

[0010] Furthermore, a cover is fixedly installed on the upper end of the tank by bolts, and a feed inlet is provided on one side of the upper end of the cover. The motor is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cover.

[0011] Furthermore, a stirring assembly is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor, and the stirring assembly is located inside the tank.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: This invention presents an environmentally friendly fermentation tank that is easy to control. A high-pressure blower generates suction, drawing gas into the outer shell through the main inlet, then into the cylinder through the secondary inlet, and finally into the air pipe. After being filtered at the air filter, the gas is discharged by the high-pressure blower.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 The present invention provides an embodiment of an environmentally friendly fermenter that is easy to control, comprising a tank body 1, an air pipe 2, a protective mechanism 3, an air filter 5, a high-pressure blower 6, and a motor 12. One end of the air pipe 2 extends through the upper outer wall of one side of the tank body 1 to the interior. A solenoid valve 4 is installed in the upper part of the middle of the air pipe 2. The other end of the air pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the input end of the air filter 5 by bolts. The input end of the high-pressure blower 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the air filter 5 by bolts. A support plate 7 is fixedly installed in the middle of the lower end of the tank body 1. The air filter 5 and the high-pressure blower 6 are both fixedly installed on the upper end of the support plate 7.

[0017] Specifically, the high-pressure blower 6 is activated via the controller 8. The impeller inside the high-pressure blower 6 rotates at high speed, creating suction at the blower input. This suction draws the gas produced during fermentation out of the tank 1. The gas flows sequentially through the air pipe 2 and the air filter 5, finally exiting from the output of the high-pressure blower 6. The air filter 5 removes any microorganisms, dust, or other impurities that may be present in the gas, ensuring that the gas discharged from the tank meets environmental protection requirements. A solenoid valve 4 installed on the air pipe 2 allows the air pipe 2 to switch between closed and open states. When it is necessary to vent gas from the inside of the tank 1, the operator opens the solenoid valve 4 via the controller 8, creating a passage inside the air pipe 2. At this time, the gas inside the tank 1 can flow into the air pipe 2. When the tank 1 needs a sealed space for fermentation, the operator closes the solenoid valve 4 via the controller 8, closing the passage inside the air pipe 2. At this time, the outside air is isolated, thus providing sealed fermentation conditions for the tank 1. Secondly, sealing gaskets are installed at the connection flanges of air pipe 2 and the inlet of air filter 5, and at the connection flanges of the outlet of air filter 5 and the inlet of high-pressure blower 6, to ensure airtightness and prevent gas leakage. Meanwhile, an external pipeline can be connected to the outlet of high-pressure blower 6 to discharge the filtered air outdoors. In addition, since both the inlet and outlet of the air filter 5 are connected by bolts, the staff can disassemble the air filter 5 to clean or replace the filter element inside, thus avoiding the situation where the filter efficiency decreases due to long-term operation. It should be noted that both the air filter 5 and the high-pressure blower 6 are common equipment in existing technology, and their filtration and air extraction functions are conventional technologies, which will not be described in detail here.

[0018] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 The protective mechanism 3 includes a base 301 and a housing 302. One side of the base 301 is threaded onto one end of the air pipe 2, and one side of the housing 302 is threaded onto the other side of the base 301. Multiple main air inlets 303 are provided at the front and rear ends of the housing 302. A cylinder 304 is fixedly installed in the middle of the other side of the base 301. Auxiliary air inlets 305 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the cylinder 304.

[0019] Specifically, the gas enters the outer casing 302 through the main air inlet 303, then enters the cylinder 304 through the secondary air inlet 305, and finally exits through the air pipe 2. During this process, if any splashed material accidentally enters the outer casing 302 through the main air inlet 303, since the main air inlet 303 and the secondary air inlet 305 are arranged in a crisscross pattern, the material entering the outer casing 302 will directly adhere to the outer wall of the cylinder 304, thereby preventing the material from entering the air pipe 2 and causing blockage. Next, the staff rotates the base 301 to remove the entire protective mechanism 3 from the air pipe 2. Then, they rotate the outer shell 302 to remove it. At this point, the staff can clean the raw materials adhering to the outer wall of the cylinder 304.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 A controller 8 is fixedly installed on the lower part of the outer wall of the front end of the tank 1. A discharge pipe 9 is installed on one side of the lower end of the tank 1. The controller 8 is electrically connected to the solenoid valve 4, the high-pressure blower 6 and the motor 12. A cover 10 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the tank 1 by bolts. A feed inlet 11 is installed on one side of the upper end of the cover 10. The motor 12 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cover 10. A stirring assembly 13 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 12. The stirring assembly 13 is located inside the tank 1.

[0021] Specifically, a sealing gasket is installed at the flange connecting the cover 10 and the tank body 1 to ensure its airtightness. Secondly, a control valve is installed on the discharge pipe 9, through which operators can control the discharge of raw materials from inside the tank body 1. This control valve is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. In addition, the motor 12 drives the stirring assembly 13 to stir the raw materials inside the fermentation tank, so that the raw materials ferment more fully. The stirring assembly 13 consists of a stirring rod and stirring blades. The motor 12 drives the stirring rod and drives the stirring blades to rotate, thereby stirring the raw materials inside the tank.

[0022] Working principle: The operator pours the raw materials into the tank 1 through the feed inlet 11. During the fermentation process, the controller 8 starts the motor 12, which drives the stirring component 13 to stir the raw materials in the tank, ensuring that the fermentation is complete.

[0023] Secondly, when the raw materials generate gas during fermentation, the operator activates the high-pressure blower 6 via the controller 8. The high-pressure blower 6 generates suction, drawing the gas out of the tank 1 through the air pipe 2. During this process, the gas inside the tank enters the outer shell 302 through the main air inlet 303, then enters the cylinder 304 through the secondary air inlet 305, and finally enters the air pipe 2. After being filtered by the air filter 5, it is discharged by the high-pressure blower 6. Raw materials that are accidentally sucked in will enter the outer shell 302 through the main air inlet 303 and adhere directly to the outer wall of the cylinder 304, thus isolating the raw materials and preventing accidentally splashed raw materials from entering the air pipe 2 and causing blockage.

[0024] It should be noted that the method of controlling the solenoid valve 4, the high-pressure blower 6 and the motor 12 through the controller 8 is a conventional method in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
