Mushroom medium stirring and dispensing device

The present invention relates to an apparatus for stirring and distributing a mushroom medium, and more particularly, by putting a medium material for mushroom cultivation into a stirring tank, and performing the stirring and distribution operation at once, the operation is simple, and in particular, the object to be stirred is a screw It relates to a mushroom medium stirring and distributing device that allows the stirring operation to proceed smoothly without stagnating in any one place by allowing the stirring to take place in the process of circulating and transporting the entire stirring tank by means of a type stirring blade.

In general, mushrooms are cultivated through processes such as medium material preparation, water soaking, sterilization, seed planting, medium survival, mushroom harvest, medium closure, and the like. Among the many requirements to increase the success rate of mushroom cultivation, the most important is the medium. There are many differences in the success rate of mushroom cultivation depending on the moisture absorption and sterilization effect of the medium.

In addition, the old mushroom medium manufacturing method is inconvenient to work, such as having to ferment medium materials such as discarded noodles by stacking them upside down outdoors, then sterilizing them in the grower, and then fermenting them again. There is a high risk of failure of mushroom cultivation because the fermentation state of the medium is unstable.

In order to solve this problem, conventionally, an apparatus for agitating a medium for mushroom cultivation has been developed and used in various forms. For example, in a technology such as Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2006-0005087) "Single-axis, 2-ply ring-screw stirring type mushroom medium production system", submersion and moisture control of mushroom medium materials, aerobic fermentation, Disclosed is a technology for reducing work effort through consistent operation of mushroom medium production, such as sterilization by heating, and reducing mushroom production cost by continuous mass production.

However, in the screw stirring type mushroom medium production system described above, the spiral direction of the inner screw and the outer screw is installed differently, so that the outer screw collects the medium material from the outside to the center, and the inner screw moves the medium material from the center to the outside. However, in this case, when the object to be stirred is moved to one place or moved in opposite directions, the object to be stirred is stagnated in the middle or both sides, and there is a problem that mixing and aging work is not smooth because stirring is not performed well. will be.
