Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tea production, and specifically to a feeding device for a continuous tea leaf shaping machine. Background Technology

[0002] In continuous tea production systems, a feeding mechanism is needed at the front end of the continuous tea shaping machine to ensure uniform feeding of tea leaves into each shaping trough. Due to factors such as actual installation and production conditions, the distribution of tea material along the width of the tea shaping machine (the width of the shaping trough) can vary between different machines. Therefore, the feeding device needs to be adjusted differently for each continuous tea shaping machine to ensure uniform feeding. However, current adjustment mechanisms for the tea feeding device are insufficient to meet these precise and specialized adjustment requirements. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be specifically described below with reference to embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of the invention and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by the invention.

[0025] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a feeding device for a continuous tea leaf straightening machine includes a feeding trough body 10 located outside the feeding end of the straightening trough. The trough wall of the feeding trough body 10 near the straightening trough is designated as trough wall A 11. Each discharge port 13 is provided on trough wall A 11, spaced apart along the width of the straightening trough. Each discharge port 13 corresponds to a specific feeding trough. Each discharge port 13 is equipped with a feed inlet component 20, which has an elongated adjusting edge 22 positioned at the bottom of the discharge port 13 in a threshold-like manner. Each feed inlet component 20 is connected to an adjusting assembly, which is used to adjust the height and / or inclination of the adjusting edge 22. That is, to adjust the size and shape of the plate protruding from the adjusting edge 22 into the discharge port 13.

[0026] The specific solution is as follows: The discharge port 13 is square. The bottom of the feeding trough is arranged in an inclined shape, and the height of the bottom of the feeding trough near the tea-straightening trough is relatively small. The bottom of the discharge port 13 is matched with the height of the bottom of the feeding trough. The two trough walls of the feeding trough arranged along the length direction of the tea-straightening trough are denoted as B trough walls. Guide members 15 are respectively provided at the ends of the two B trough walls away from the tea-straightening trough, and the two guide members 15 are arranged in an open shape. The material port member 20 is arranged outside the A trough wall 11. The material port member 20 is composed of plate members and includes an "open" shaped adjustment part and an assembly part. The adjustment part is arranged in abutment with the A trough wall 11. A square vacancy part 21 is provided in the middle of the adjustment part. The width dimension of the vacancy part 21 is larger than the width dimension of the discharge port 13 (the width dimension referred to here is the dimension along the width direction of the tea-straightening trough). The lower side edges enclosing the vacancy part 21 constitute the adjustment edge part 22. The assembly part is located above the adjustment part, and the assembly part is assembled and connected to the A trough wall 11 through an adjustment component. A horizontally arranged clamping member 14 is provided outside the A trough wall 11. A clamping seam for assembling the material port member 20 is formed between the clamping member 14 and the A trough wall 11. The assembly parts of each material port member 20 are assembled in the clamping seam. The upper side edge of the assembly part is bent away from the A trough wall 11 to form a folding part 23, and the folding part 23 is located above the clamping member 14.

[0027] When the present invention is specifically implemented, there are the following two methods. One is: As Figure 1 , 3 , as shown in FIGS., the upper side edges enclosing the vacancy part 21 extend into the assembly part to form a long-strip-shaped socket 24. The adjustment component is composed of a bolt component 30. The material port member 20 is fixedly assembled in the clamping seam through the bolt component 30. That is, the material port member 20 is clamped in the clamping seam through the bolt component 30. In this method, the height of the adjustment edge part 22 is adjusted by lifting or pressing the assembly part, and the material port member 20 is reversed by掰动the two ends of the assembly part, so as to adjust the inclination of the adjustment edge part 22. The other is: As Figure 5 , 6 It should be noted that the "掰动" in the original text may be a misspelling. It is recommended to check the correct expression according to the actual situation.As shown in Figure 7, an assembly groove 25 is provided on the upper surface of the folded part 23. The length direction of the assembly groove 25 matches the width direction of the strip groove. The assembly groove 25 is a converging groove, and the cross-section of the groove cavity of the assembly groove 25 is hemispherical. A horizontally arranged assembly part 12 is provided above the assembly groove 25. Each set of adjustment components includes A and B adjustment bolts 41 arranged along the groove depth direction of the assembly groove 25. A and B nuts 43 are provided on the assembly part 12 for fixed assembly. The middle part of the A and B adjustment bolts 41 is threadedly assembled with the A and B nuts 43 respectively. A and B ball heads 42 are respectively provided at the lower end of the A and B adjustment bolts 41. The A and B ball heads 42 are respectively assembled in the groove cavities at both ends of the assembly groove 25. A and B rotating handles 44 are respectively provided at the upper end of the A and B adjustment bolts 41. When the A and B rotating handles 44 are rotated, the A and B ball heads 42 rotate and slide accordingly in the assembly groove 25. In this method, the height and tilt of the adjusting edge 22 can be adjusted by rotating handles A and B 44, thereby changing the amount of rotation of handles A and B 44. Of the two implementation methods described above, the second method is more convenient to operate and more precise in adjustment. The assembly 12 and the clamping part 14 can be fixedly assembled with the feed trough body 10.

[0028] The above-mentioned solution provided by the present invention can effectively and reliably adjust each feed port component 20, and make fine adjustments to the tea leaf obstruction effect at the discharge port 13, so as to meet the high-precision and uniform feeding requirements of the continuous strip forming machine.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention. Structures, mechanisms, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this invention, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the art.
