Abstract
A ball valve for fermentation tank includes a main body, a ball body, and a rotation mechanism. The main body encloses a chamber therein and has a first inlet, a first outlet, and a discharge port therebetween. The ball body has a flow channel with a second inlet, a second outlet, and a liquid intake port. A gap is formed between the ball body and the main body. The rotation mechanism is connected to the ball body to make it rotate. When the ball body is at an open position, the second inlet communicates the first inlet, the second outlet communicates the first outlet, and the liquid intake port communicates the gap. When the ball body is at a washing position, the second inlet and the second outlet face the gap, the liquid intake port communicates the first inlet.
