Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of tea fermentation, and particularly relates to a tea fermentation machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] Tea fermentation refers to a tea collectively called fermentation tea, which is made by fermenting tea leaves after the initial processing of withering, rolling, cutting, fermenting and drying, and then refining the tea leaves.

[0003] However, the existing fermentation machine has a sealed fermentation cylinder, which leads to insufficient oxygen in the fermentation process, so that the final product is not fresh enough. In addition, during the fermentation process, there is a step of spraying fermentation water, but due to the sealed structure of the fermentation cylinder, the fermentation water cannot be discharged, causing the tea at the bottom of the cylinder to be soaked in water for a long time, resulting in spoilage and making it unusable. At the same time, due to the distance between the stirring bar in the cylinder and the cylinder wall during stirring, the tea in the area not stirred by the stirring bar will stick to the cylinder wall for a long time and cannot participate in the normal fermentation process. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a tea fermentation machine that solves the technical problem of spoilage of tea during fermentation due to the sealed fermentation cylinder and the inconvenience of cleaning the tea stuck to the inner wall of the fermentation cylinder.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application is realized by the following technical scheme:

[0006] A tea fermentation machine comprises two support plates, a stirring barrel is rotatably connected to the upper part of the two support plates, a plurality of through holes are formed in the stirring barrel and the arc-shaped sealing plate, an inlet is formed in the side of the stirring barrel, the arc-shaped sealing plate is slidably connected to the inlet, and the arc-shaped sealing plate corresponds to the inlet.

[0007] A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inside of the stirring barrel, a plurality of water outlets and two cleaning mechanisms are arranged on the side of the rotating rod, and the cleaning mechanisms and the water outlets are arranged in a cross pattern.

[0008] An air injection mechanism is arranged above the two support plates, and the air injection mechanism is arranged above the stirring barrel.

[0009] Two hydraulic push rods are arranged on the lower side of the two support plates, and a V-shaped drainage groove is slidably connected between the four hydraulic push rods.

[0010] Optionally, a support column, an electric push rod and two first bearing boxes are respectively provided on the upper sides of the two support plates, a second bearing box is provided at one end of the support column, the rotating rod rotates between the two second bearing boxes, and a first motor is provided on one side of a second bearing box.

[0012] Optionally, two gear rings and two annular baffles are installed on the circumference of the mixing barrel, and the annular baffles are located on the inner side of the gear rings, and the gear rings are meshed with two opposite gears.

[0013] Optionally, the cleaning mechanism includes a spring slide rod installed on the circumference of the rotating rod, and a scraper is installed at one end of the spring slide rod.

[0014] Optionally, the air jet mechanism includes a cross bar installed on the upper side of the output ends of the two electric push rods, and a plurality of air jet nozzles are evenly distributed on the lower side of the cross bar.

[0020] One embodiment of the present invention facilitates the opening and closing of the feed port by using an arc-shaped sealing plate that slides on the outside of the mixing barrel, thereby facilitating the addition or removal of tea leaves into or from the mixing barrel. The mixing barrel and the rotating rod rotate in opposite directions, thereby facilitating the fermentation of the tea leaves. The water outlet holes on the side of the rotating rod facilitate the spraying of fermentation liquid onto the surface of the tea leaves in the mixing barrel, thereby accelerating the fermentation process of the tea leaves. The cleaning mechanism facilitates the stirring of the tea leaves and can clean off the tea leaves adhering to the inner wall of the mixing barrel. The jet mechanism facilitates the blowing of tea leaves blocked in the through hole to the bottom of the mixing barrel.
