[0031] The beneficial effects in the application are:
[0032] 1. By setting up a holding device, the tender buds to be processed into tea can be held and heated. After the heating and opening plate is heated, the tender buds are heated. At the same time, the deflection of the heating and opening plate conveys the kneaded tender buds to the drying device. This realizes the conveying and processing of tea, reduces residue and facilitates operation. Moreover, the slight deflection of the opening plate can gather the tea leaves scattered on the elastic pad, making it easier to knead. The elastic pad made of silicone can play the role of funnel shape and stretching, which helps the tea conveying and handling. Silicone has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, non-toxicity and odorless, making it suitable for use in food processing equipment, improving operating efficiency and tea quality.

These components can simulate the kneading of tea leaves by human hands, and can also simulate the roasting process by moving and rubbing the tea leaves within the holding frame using the moving hand. In the kneading mechanism, the moving hand is made of silicone material. It moves in conjunction with the fixed hand after the deflection rod simulates the closing of a human hand, thus simulating the kneading of tea leaves by human hands, thereby reducing the impact of vibration. The tea leaves are broken and shaped into an eyebrow shape. Simultaneously, in the vibration mechanism, components such as the vibrating hydraulic cylinder, the pushing hydraulic cylinder, and the vibrating spring generate vibrations, shaking the kneaded tea leaves on the moving palm and causing them to fall into the holding frame. This simulates the kneading of tea leaves by a human hand, solving the problems of existing tea-making equipment. These problems include: machine kneading results in more broken tea leaves in the finished product, reducing product quality; the need for multiple machines to complete tea production, increasing production costs; and the inability of existing machines to shape the tea leaves and maintain their eyebrow shape.
[0034] 3. A drying device is installed to dry the kneaded tea leaves. A rotary motor drives the rotation of the heating and stirring hopper, and the stirring rod stirs the tea leaves inside the hopper, ensuring uniform drying. The drying device also includes a lifting hydraulic cylinder to drive the heating and stirring hopper upwards. This upward movement of the hopper drives the opening and closing of the opening and closing plate. A telescopic sleeve is fixedly installed at the lower end of the heating and stirring hopper via bearings. One end of the telescopic sleeve is connected to the frame and hinged to the stirring rod via a sealing ring. As the heating and stirring hopper descends, it disengages from the sealing ring, allowing the dried tea leaves to pass through the lower end of the hopper into the telescopic sleeve. This effectively achieves uniform drying of the tea leaves and facilitates their transport and collection. This solves the technical problem of existing tea-making equipment requiring multiple machines to complete production, thus increasing production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

After the movable palm 45 and the fixed palm 42 are placed opposite each other, the tea leaves in the palm can be moved back and forth between the movable palm 45 and the fixed palm 42, simulating the kneading of the tea leaves by a human hand, thereby reducing the breakage of the tea leaves and shaping them into an eyebrow shape.
[0060] Specifically, in order to shake the tea leaves off the movable palm 45, the vibration mechanism also includes a vibration hydraulic cylinder 5.

[0061] like Figures 8-11 As shown, a drying device is provided for drying the kneaded tea leaves. The drying device is located on the outer surface of the frame 1. The drying device includes a heating and stirring hopper 61 and a stirring rod 67. The rotation of the heating and stirring hopper 61 stirs the tea leaves in the heating and stirring hopper 61 through the stirring rod 67.
[0062] Specifically, in order to rotate the heating and stirring hopper 61, the drying device also includes a lifting hydraulic cylinder 6, which is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the frame 1. One end of the piston rod of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 6 is slidably inserted into the outer surface of the heating and stirring hopper 61 through a slider. A rotary motor 62 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the frame 1. The output shaft of the rotary motor 62 drives the heating and stirring hopper 61 to rotate through a gear set.
[0063] Specifically, in order to facilitate the conveying of the dried insert, a telescopic sleeve 63 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the heating and stirring bucket 61 via a bearing. One end of the telescopic sleeve 63 is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the through hole of the frame 1. A fixing rod 64 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixing ring of the telescopic sleeve 63. A sealing ring 65 is slidably inserted into the outer surface of the fixing rod 64. A return spring 66 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fixing rod 64 to force the sealing ring 65 to return to its original position. The outer side of the sealing ring 65 is hinged to one end of the stirring rod 67 via a pin.
[0064] Specifically, in order to facilitate the resetting of the stirring rod 67, a connecting spring 68 is fixedly installed at one end of the stirring rod 67, and one end of the connecting spring 68 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the sealing ring 65.
[0065] Working principle: After the harvested tender shoots are spread out, they are poured into the holding frame 21. The rotary motor 62 on the frame 1 is started, and the rotation of the heating and stirring bucket 61 is driven by the gear set. The rotation of the heating and stirring bucket 61 drives the holding frame 21, which is fixed to it, to rotate. This causes the tender shoots in the holding frame 21 to rotate. After the lifting component 4 drives the moving frame 41 to descend, the moving hand 45 is positioned in the holding frame 21 and contacts the elastic pad 33. The hydraulic cylinder 44 pushes the moving hand 45 to move and scoop up the tender leaves on the elastic pad 33. After the vibration hydraulic cylinder 5 drives the push plate 51 to rise, the pressure on the moving arm 43 is released. The moving arm 43 rises and falls under the return force of the vibration spring 52, generating vibration and shaking the tender leaves scooped up by the moving hand 45. The above action is repeated.
[0066] The tender buds are heated by heating the opening and closing plate 3 to complete the blanching process. After a period of stir-frying, the heating stirring bucket 61 is pushed up by the lifting hydraulic cylinder 6, which drives the opening and closing rack 32 to push the opening and closing gear 31 to deflect. This causes the heating opening and closing plate 3 to deflect slightly downwards, so that the tea leaves can be gathered together without falling off, making it easier to pick up.
[0067] After the withering is completed, the temperature of the heating plate is adjusted, and the tea leaves are lifted by the movable palm 45 and raised to a position below the fixed palm 42. The movable palm 45 is then placed alternately with the fixed palm 42, so that the tender leaves are between the fixed palm 42 and the movable palm 45. The hydraulic cylinder 44 is pushed to move the movable palm 45 back and forth, kneading the tender leaves on the movable palm 45. After kneading, the deflection motor 48 inside the movable palm 45 is started. The deflection support rod 46 is driven by the gear set to deflect, so that the fingers of the movable palm 45 are opened. The vibration hydraulic cylinder 5 drives the push plate 51 to rise, so that the movable palm 45 vibrates and shakes off the kneaded tender leaves on the movable palm 45. The rotation of the holding frame 21 can make the kneading even.
[0068] After kneading, the heated mixing hopper 61 rises again, causing the sealing ring 65 to rise on the fixed rod 64, which compresses the return spring 66 on the fixed rod 64. At the same time, the mixing rod 67 deflects upward and then converges, without affecting the deflection of the heated mixing hopper 61. After rising again through the opening and closing rack 32, it drives the opening and closing gear 31 to deflect. The deflection of the opening and closing gear 31 drives the heated opening and closing plate 3 to deflect, pulling the elastic pad 33 to form a funnel shape, so that the kneaded sprouts enter the heated mixing hopper 61 below.
[0069] After the tea leaves are delivered, the heating stirring pot 61 is lowered, the sealing plate is reset, and the heating stirring pot 61 continues to rotate, so that the stirring rod 67 stirs the tea leaves in the heating stirring pot 61, so that the tea leaves are evenly dried. After drying is completed, the heating stirring pot 61 continues to be lowered under the pulling of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 6. After the heating stirring pot 61 is separated from the sealing ring 65, the dried tea leaves enter the telescopic sleeve 63 for collection.
[0070] The above merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, and all of them should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
