Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of white tea processing equipment, in particular to a tea cake pressing machine. Background Art

[0002] Tea cake is a storage form of tea leaves, which is formed by pressing tea leaves into cakes in a cylinder using a pressing plate. In the process of making white tea cakes, the white tea leaves are constantly squeezed, kneaded, and rubbed under the action of force. Some cells in the white tea leaves will break down and decompose, and the cell fluid containing tea polysaccharides and pectin will flow out, forming a natural adhesive, which can make the taste of the white tea cake more mellow. In addition, after being pressed into cakes, the white tea becomes exquisite and compact, with a dense texture. During storage and transportation, it saves more space, reduces transportation losses caused by leaf breakage, and reduces energy consumption; the more commendable benefit is that the tea cakes have a mellower taste after being stored for a long time. For this reason, more and more people choose to buy white tea cakes instead of loose white tea leaves.

[0003] In the prior art tea cake pressing machine, after the cake pressing is completed, the pressed white tea cake needs to be taken out manually. Since the cake pressing process is downward force, and in order to take out the pressed tea cake, the tea cake needs to be pulled upward, so there is a situation where taking out the cake after the cake pressing is completed will lead to rework. In order to solve the above problem, the utility model provides a tea cake pressing machine that is convenient for downward taking out and convenient for conveying. Utility Model Content
