Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tea fermentation, and in particular to a fermentation processing device used for tea production. Background Art

[0002] Tea is a widely consumed beverage crop with a history of thousands of years. The production process of tea includes multiple steps such as picking, withering, rolling, and drying. Among them, the fermentation process is an important factor in its unique flavor. During the fermentation process of tea, due to the action of microorganisms, the organic matter in the tea will undergo complex biochemical changes. In this process, macromolecular organic matter such as protein, sugar, and fat in the tea will be decomposed into small molecules such as amino acids, glucose, and ethanol. However, during the fermentation of tea, some adverse reactions will also occur, such as the massive reproduction of microorganisms on the surface of tea, changes in enzyme activity in tea, and the burning of tea. These changes not only affect the quality of tea, but may also cause tea to form lumps on the surface. There are two main reasons for the agglomeration of tea: one is that microorganisms multiply on the surface of tea, forming a thick film; the other is that due to excessive moisture on the surface of tea, the film grows too fast, causing the tea leaves to stick to each other and form lumps.

[0003] The agglomeration of tea leaves will have a certain impact on the taste, aroma and quality of tea leaves. The agglomerated tea leaves tend to have a coarse taste, a turbid soup color, a low aroma, and the quality will also be affected. In order to ensure the quality of tea leaves, the film on the surface of the tea leaves should be cleaned in time during the fermentation process to keep the tea leaves loose.

[0004] The patent with the publication number CN117751995A discloses a tea fermentation processing device, in which the blocking plate squeezes the hinged plate No. 1 during the rotation of the tank body, and the hinged plate No. 1 is provided with a torsion spring. When the hinged plate No. 1 passes over the blocking plate, the torsion spring resets the hinged plate No. 1 to push the tea leaves inside, so as to push and disperse the tea leaves, thereby solving the problem of tea agglomeration.

[0005] However, the prior art still has the following defects:

[0006] 1. The hinged plate No. 1 is constantly squeezed and reset to push the tea leaves inside to avoid tea clumping. It needs to be rotated continuously to push the tea leaves, which is not conducive to the fermentation of tea leaves. Tea fermentation is a long process. Such continuous pushing and impacting of tea leaves will reduce the fermentation efficiency of tea leaves.

[0007] 2. It can only prevent tea from clumping. When tea has clumped during the fermentation process, it is difficult to disperse the clumping by simply pushing and shaking the tea. Moreover, it will cause wear and even damage to the equipment by constantly hitting the No. 1 hinge plate, thus reducing the service life of the equipment. Summary of the invention

[0008] In view of the problem in the prior art that agglomerates are easily generated during the fermentation process and are difficult to remove, a fermentation processing device for tea production is proposed.

[0009] The purpose is to remove and disperse the lumps between the tea leaves through the dispersion unit when lumps appear during the fermentation process, thereby improving the fermentation efficiency and the fermentation quality of the tea leaves.

[0010] The technical solution of the present invention is a fermentation processing device for tea production, comprising a fermentation box and an oxygen outlet arranged on one side of the fermentation box, and also comprising a discharge unit arranged at the bottom of the fermentation box and a dispersion unit arranged on the top of the discharge unit;

[0011] The feeding unit is used to place the moistened tea leaves to be fermented, and the dispersing unit is used to remove the lumps generated between the tea leaves during the fermentation process;

[0012] The dispersion unit includes a shoveling assembly symmetrically arranged in the inner cavity of the fermentation box, a dispersion assembly arranged on the shoveling assembly, and a rotating assembly arranged on one side of the dispersion assembly;

[0013] The shoveling assembly includes a motor arranged at the top of the fermentation box, a rotating shaft arranged at the bottom of the motor output shaft, a shoveling frame arranged at one side of the rotating shaft, a shoveling plate arranged at the bottom of the shoveling frame, a shoveling slope opened on one side of the shoveling plate, and a discharge slope opened on the other side of the shoveling plate, and the bottom end of the shoveling slope is lower than the bottom end of the discharge slope in the vertical direction, and the top of the shoveling plate is fixedly connected to the dispersion assembly.

[0014] By adopting the above technical scheme, during fermentation, the wet tea leaves are first placed on the discharge unit, oxygen is introduced into the fermentation box, and the box door is closed, so that the tea leaves are fermented in the fermentation box. When the fermentation is completed or after a period of fermentation, the tea leaves will form clumps due to the action of water vapor, oxygen and microorganisms. At this time, the clumps between the tea leaves are removed by the dispersion unit, thereby ensuring the quality of tea fermentation. When removing lumps, the motor starts to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotating shaft drives the shoveling frame and the shoveling plate to rotate. One side of the shoveling plate will contact the tea leaves on the discharge unit. During the rotation process, the tea leaves are shoveled onto the shoveling plate and enter the top of the shoveling plate through the shoveling slope. The shoveling process is performed by the dispersion component. The tea leaves after the treatment are discharged from the discharge slope. Since the bottom of the discharge slope is higher than the bottom of the shoveling slope, the tea leaves will fall down after being discharged from the discharge slope, so that the tea leaves after being removed can be dispersed more evenly when falling, avoiding the accumulation of tea leaves after removal of lumps, and improving the efficiency of removal of lumps.

[0015] Furthermore, the dispersion component includes a fixed shaft arranged on the shoveling frame, and one end of the fixed shaft passes through one side of the shoveling frame, a rotating column arranged on the fixed shaft, dispersion bars arranged in a ring-shaped and linear array on the rotating column, fixed pins arranged in a linear array on the top of the shoveling plate, baffle bars arranged on the fixed pins, and deblocking intervals formed between adjacent baffle bars, and the dispersion bars and the baffle bars are staggered.

[0016] By adopting the above technical scheme, the shoveling frame drives the entire dispersion component to rotate when it rotates, and the dispersion component rotates under the action of the rotating component, so that the fixed shaft rotates, and the rotation of the fixed shaft drives the rotating column to rotate, thereby causing the dispersion bar to rotate. The dispersion bar will move the tea leaves scooped up when the shoveling plate rotates, and the tip of the dispersion bar will move the lumped and clumped tea leaves and be blocked by the baffle bar. Under the obstruction of the adjacent baffle bars, the clumped tea leaves are moved and dispersed when passing through the de-lumping interval. The pointed setting at one end of the dispersion bar can increase the grabbing rate of the agglomerated tea leaves, as well as the tearing force for the dispersion of the agglomerated tea leaves after grabbing, thereby improving the dispersion efficiency of the tea blocks.

[0017] Furthermore, the dispersion strip is in an S-shape, and the end of the dispersion strip is pointed, and the dispersion strip is arranged obliquely on the rotating column.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the S-shaped arrangement of the dispersion strip can make its bottom end better grasp and destroy the agglomerated tea leaves, and the top end thereof close to the rotating column is in a convex state, which can help the tea leaves to slide off during the rotation process after the dispersion strip disperses the agglomerates, thereby reducing the probability of the tea leaves adhering to the dispersion strip. The dispersion strip arranged obliquely on the rotating column can realize the process of rotating and grasping the agglomerated tea leaves, so that the dispersion strip maintains an inclined angle with the agglomerates during rotation, so that the agglomerated tea leaves can first slide along the dispersion strip when being moved, which is conducive to the dispersed tea leaves to smoothly pass through the de-agglomeration interval, and also avoids the agglomerated tea leaves being rigidly moved and squeezed by the dispersion strip, which may cause the tea leaves to break and tear, thereby improving the quality of the tea leaves.

[0019] Furthermore, the baffle bars are provided with concave edges in a ring-shaped array.

[0020] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the dispersion bar is rotated and toggled, the agglomerated tea leaves are squeezed against the baffles on both sides when passing through the de-agglomerating interval. The setting of the concave edge can increase the contact area of ​​the tea leaves with the baffles when passing through the de-agglomerating interval. The four protrusions formed around the concave edge will increase the resistance of the agglomerated tea leaves when passing through, thereby improving the efficiency of removing tea agglomerates. In addition, the baffles can rotate, which increases the resistance of the tea agglomerates passing through the baffles while preventing the tea agglomerates from being pulled hard when passing through, causing the tea leaves to break, thereby reducing the damage to the tea leaves during the de-agglomerating process.

[0021] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a conical tooth arranged at one end of the fixed shaft away from the rotating shaft, a first ring tooth arranged in the inner cavity of the fermentation box, and a second ring tooth arranged on one side of the first ring tooth, and the conical tooth is meshingly connected with the first ring tooth and the second ring tooth, and one side of the second ring tooth is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the door of the fermentation box.

[0022] With the above technical solution, when the shoveling frame rotates, it drives the fixed shaft to rotate, and the conical teeth at one end of the fixed shaft rotate on the first ring of teeth, so that the shoveling frame can drive the rotating column to rotate while driving the shoveling plate to rotate, so that the shoveling plate can move the tea leaves to remove blocks after scooping up the tea leaves. The first ring of teeth and the second ring of teeth can form a complete ring of teeth for the conical teeth to mesh and rotate, wherein one side of the second ring of teeth is fixed to the inner wall of the door of the fermentation box. When the door is closed, the second ring of teeth and the first ring of teeth form a complete ring of teeth. When it is opened, the second ring of teeth is driven away, and the gap formed is convenient for the staff to load the materials.

[0023] Furthermore, the two shoveling components and the dispersing component are both symmetrically arranged about the central axis.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the two shoveling components and the dispersing component are symmetrically arranged about the central axis, so that the two shoveling components and the deblocking zone can deblock the tea leaves at the same time, further improving the deblocking efficiency.

[0025] Furthermore, the discharge unit includes a discharge tray arranged at the bottom of the inner cavity of the fermentation box, a handle arranged at the bottom of one side of the discharge tray, and a rotating assembly arranged at the bottom of the discharge tray;

[0026] The rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft arranged at the bottom of the rotating shaft, and the middle part of the discharge tray is slidably connected to the rotating shaft, the bottom of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fermentation box, a limiting groove is opened on one side of the rotating shaft, a limiting block is arranged in the limiting groove, and one end of the limiting block is fixedly connected to the discharge tray, a rotating groove is opened at the bottom of the limiting groove, and an extrusion piece is sleeved on the rotating shaft, and the top of the extrusion piece abuts against the bottom of the discharge tray.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, when discharging the material, the staff holds the handle with the left hand and presses the discharging plate with the right hand to make the discharging plate move downward. At this time, the limit block moves downward in the limit groove, and the extrusion piece is compressed. The extrusion piece can be a spring. When the discharging tray is compressed to the bottom, a distance is left between the top of the discharging tray and the shoveling plate, which increases the operating space of the staff and is convenient for the staff to place the tea leaves. Then the discharging tray is rotated so that the limit block is stuck in the rotating groove, so that the discharging tray is stuck in the vertical direction. At this time, the discharging tray is rotated to discharge the material. When the discharge is completed, that is, the discharge tray rotates one circle, the limit block re-enters the bottom of the limit groove, and under the resetting action of the extruder, the discharge tray automatically moves up, so that the bottom of the shoveling plate can contact the tea leaves, which is convenient for subsequent rotation and shoveling out, and also realizes the automatic resetting after the tea leaves are loaded. The operation is simple and efficient, and the efficiency of subsequent deblocking is improved while loading is realized. Moreover, under the limiting action of the limit block and the limit groove, when the shoveling plate rotates on the discharge tray, the discharge tray is limited, which improves the stability during the deblocking process.

[0028] Furthermore, the top of the discharge tray is provided with arc grooves in a circular array, and the shape of the arc grooves is S-shaped, and three ventilation holes are provided in a circular array between adjacent arc grooves.

[0029] By adopting the above technical scheme, the setting of the arc groove can not only retain the moisture of the tea leaves after being moistened during the fermentation process, but also increase the friction of the tea leaves placed on the discharge tray, so that the tea leaves will not be displaced or slipped due to the rotation of the discharge tray when placed and taken out, thereby improving the stability during discharge, and the moisture retained in the arc groove can participate in the fermentation of the tea leaves, further accelerating the fermentation process of the tea leaves. The setting of the air holes also has the same function, increasing the contact area between oxygen and the bottom of the tea leaves, and avoiding the accumulation of tea leaves that leads to insufficient fermentation of the tea leaves at the bottom.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] 1. The decomposition and removal of tea lumps are achieved through the dispersion unit, which can prevent the tea from getting moldy. The inside of the lumps is often prone to mold, and removing the lumps helps prevent the tea from getting moldy, thereby improving the quality and shelf life of the tea. It is also convenient for tea processing. The lumps are irregular in shape and difficult to roll, which brings difficulties to the processing of tea (such as rolling, chopping, etc.). After removing the lumps, the tea leaves become regular, which is convenient for subsequent processing operations.

[0032] 2. When the dispersion bar rotates, the tip of the dispersion bar will move the lumped and clumped tea leaves and be blocked by the baffle bar. Under the blocking of the adjacent baffle bar, the agglomerated tea leaves are moved and dispersed when passing through the de-lumping interval. The pointed setting at one end of the dispersion bar can increase the grabbing rate of agglomerated tea leaves and the tearing force for dispersing the agglomerated tea leaves after grabbing, thereby improving the dispersion efficiency of tea blocks.

[0033] 3. The two shoveling components and the dispersing component are arranged symmetrically on the central axis, so that the two shoveling components and the de-blocking zone can de-block the tea leaves at the same time, further improving the de-blocking efficiency and the tea fermentation efficiency. Agglomeration will affect the contact area between the tea leaves and the air and water, and slow down the fermentation speed of the tea leaves. After the agglomeration is removed, the surface area of ​​the tea leaves increases, which is conducive to the smooth progress of the fermentation process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0048] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0049] Example 1, reference Figure 1-Figure 5 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a fermentation processing device for tea production, including a fermentation box 1 and an oxygen outlet 11 installed on one side of the fermentation box 1, and also includes a discharge unit installed at the bottom of the fermentation box 1 and a dispersion unit installed on the top of the discharge unit; the discharge unit is used to place moistened tea leaves to be fermented, and the dispersion unit is used to remove lumps generated between the tea leaves during the fermentation process; the dispersion unit includes a shoveling component 2 symmetrically installed in the inner cavity of the fermentation box 1, a dispersion component 3 installed on the shoveling component 2, and a dispersion component 3 installed on the dispersion component 3. The rotating component 5 on one side; the shoveling component 2 includes a motor 21 fixedly connected to the top of the fermentation box 1, a rotating shaft 22 fixedly connected to the bottom of the output shaft of the motor 21, a shoveling frame 23 fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft 22, a shoveling plate 24 fixedly connected to the bottom of the shoveling frame 23, a shoveling slope 25 opened on one side of the shoveling plate 24, and a discharge slope 26 opened on the other side of the shoveling plate 24, and the bottom end of the shoveling slope 25 is lower than the bottom end of the discharge slope 26 in the vertical direction, and the top of the shoveling plate 24 is fixedly connected to the dispersion component 3.

[0050] Specifically, during fermentation, the moistened tea leaves are first placed on the discharge unit, oxygen is introduced into the fermentation box 1, and the box door is closed to allow the tea leaves to ferment in the fermentation box 1. When the fermentation is completed or after a period of fermentation, the tea leaves will form clumps due to the action of water vapor, oxygen and microorganisms. At this time, the clumps between the tea leaves are removed by the dispersion unit to ensure the quality of the tea fermentation. When removing the blocks, the motor 21 starts to drive the rotating shaft 22 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the shoveling frame 23 and the shoveling plate 24 to rotate. One side of the shoveling plate 24 will contact the tea leaves on the discharge unit. During the rotation process, the tea leaves are shoveled onto the shoveling plate 24 and enter the top of the shoveling plate 24 through the shoveling slope 25. The shoveling process is performed by the dispersion component 3. The tea leaves after the treatment are discharged from the discharge slope 26. Since the bottom of the discharge slope 26 is higher than the bottom of the shoveling slope 25, the tea leaves will fall down after being discharged from the discharge slope 26, so that the deblocked tea leaves can be dispersed more evenly when falling, avoiding the accumulation of tea leaves after deblocking, improving the deblocking efficiency, and ensuring the quality of tea leaves. Agglomeration will cause too many microorganisms to adhere to the surface of the tea leaves, and these microorganisms may affect the flavor and quality of the tea leaves. By removing the agglomeration, the risk of microbial contamination on the surface of the tea leaves can be reduced.

[0051] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 The dispersion assembly 3 includes a fixed shaft 31 rotatably connected to the shoveling frame 23, and one end of the fixed shaft 31 passes through one side of the shoveling frame 23, a rotating column 32 fixedly connected to the fixed shaft 31, dispersion bars 33 fixedly connected to the rotating column 32 in a ring-shaped and linear array, fixed pins 34 fixedly connected to the top of the shoveling plate 24 in a linear array, blocking bars 35 rotatably connected to the fixed pins 34, and deblocking intervals 36 formed between adjacent blocking bars 35, and the dispersion bars 33 and the blocking bars 35 are staggered.

[0052] Specifically, the shoveling frame 23 drives the entire dispersion component 3 to rotate when it rotates. The dispersion component 3 rotates under the action of the rotating component 5, so that the fixed shaft 31 rotates. The rotation of the fixed shaft 31 drives the rotating column 32 to rotate, thereby rotating the dispersion bar 33. The dispersion bar 33 moves the tea leaves shoveled up when the shoveling plate 24 rotates. The tip of the dispersion bar 33 moves the lumped and clumped tea leaves and is blocked by the blocking bar 35. Under the obstruction of the adjacent blocking bars 35, the agglomerated tea leaves are moved and dispersed when passing through the de-lumping interval 36. The pointed setting at one end of the dispersion bar 33 can increase the grabbing rate of agglomerated tea leaves and the tearing force for dispersing the agglomerated tea leaves after grabbing, thereby improving the dispersion efficiency of tea blocks.

[0053] Reference Figure 6-Figure 7 The dispersion strip 33 is in an S-shape, and the end of the dispersion strip 33 is pointed, and the dispersion strip 33 is obliquely arranged on the rotating column 32.

[0054] Specifically, the S-shaped arrangement of the dispersion strip 33 can enable its bottom end to better grasp and destroy the agglomerated tea leaves. The top end of the dispersion strip 33 near the rotating column 32 is in a convex state, which can help the tea leaves to slide off during the rotation process after the dispersion strip 33 disperses the agglomerates, thereby reducing the probability of the tea leaves adhering to the dispersion strip 33. The dispersion strip 33 obliquely arranged on the rotating column 32 can achieve the process of rotating and grasping the agglomerated tea leaves, so that the dispersion strip 33 maintains an inclined angle with the agglomerates during rotation, so that the agglomerated tea leaves can first slide along the dispersion strip 33 when being moved, which is beneficial for the dispersed tea leaves to smoothly pass through the de-agglomeration interval 36, and also avoids the agglomerated tea leaves being rigidly moved and squeezed by the dispersion strip 33, which causes the tea leaves to break and tear, thereby improving the quality of the tea leaves.

[0055] Reference Figure 8 The baffle bar 35 is provided with concave edges 4 in a circular array.

[0056] Specifically, when the dispersion bar 33 is rotated and moved, the agglomerated tea leaves are squeezed against the baffles 35 on both sides when passing through the de-agglomerating interval 36. The setting of the concave edge 4 can increase the contact area of ​​the tea leaves with the baffles 35 when passing through the de-agglomerating interval 36. The four protrusions formed around the concave edge 4 will increase the resistance of the agglomerated tea leaves when passing through, thereby improving the efficiency of removing tea agglomerates. In addition, the baffles 35 can rotate, which increases the resistance of the tea agglomerates passing through the baffles 35 while preventing the tea agglomerates from being pulled hard when passing through, causing the tea leaves to break, thereby reducing the damage to the tea leaves during the de-agglomerating process.

[0057] Example 2, reference Fig. 9 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: the rotating assembly 5 includes a conical tooth 51 fixedly connected to the end of the fixed shaft 31 away from the rotating shaft 22, a first ring tooth 52 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fermentation box 1, and a second ring tooth 53 installed on one side of the first ring tooth 52, and the conical tooth 51 is meshed with the first ring tooth 52 and the second ring tooth 53, and one side of the second ring tooth 53 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the door of the fermentation box 1.

[0058] Specifically, when the shoveling frame 23 rotates, the fixed shaft 31 is driven to rotate, and the conical teeth 51 at one end of the fixed shaft 31 rotate on the first ring teeth 52, so that the shoveling frame 23 can drive the shoveling plate 24 to rotate while driving the rotating column 32 to rotate, so that the shoveling plate 24 can move the tea leaves to remove the blocks after scooping up the tea leaves. The first ring teeth 52 and the second ring teeth 53 can form a complete ring of teeth for the conical teeth 51 to mesh and rotate, wherein one side of the second ring teeth 53 is fixed to the inner wall of the door of the fermentation box 1. When the door is closed, the second ring teeth 53 and the first ring teeth 52 form a complete ring of teeth. When it is opened, the second ring teeth 53 are driven away, and the gap formed is convenient for the staff to load the materials.

[0059] Reference Figure 2-Figure 3 The two shoveling components 2 and the dispersing component 3 are installed symmetrically about the central axis.

[0060] Specifically, the two shoveling components 2 and the dispersing component 3 are arranged symmetrically about the central axis, so that the two shoveling components 2 and the de-blocking zone can de-block the tea leaves at the same time, further improving the de-blocking efficiency and the tea fermentation efficiency. Agglomeration will affect the contact area between the tea leaves and the air and water, and slow down the fermentation speed of the tea leaves. After the agglomeration is removed, the surface area of ​​the tea leaves increases, which is conducive to the smooth progress of the fermentation process. The remaining structure is the same as that of Example 1.

[0061] Example 3, reference Figure 10-12 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the second embodiment in that: the discharge unit includes a discharge tray 6 connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the fermentation box 1, a handle 61 fixedly connected to the bottom of one side of the discharge tray 6, and a rotating component 7 installed at the bottom of the discharge tray 6; the rotating component 7 includes a rotating shaft 71 rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 22, and the middle part of the discharge tray 6 is slidably connected to the rotating shaft 71, the bottom of the rotating shaft 71 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fermentation box 1, a limiting groove 72 is provided on one side of the rotating shaft 71, a limiting block 73 is slidably connected in the limiting groove 72, and one end of the limiting block 73 is fixedly connected to the discharge tray 6, a rotating groove 74 is provided at the bottom of the limiting groove 72, and an extrusion piece 75 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 71, and the top of the extrusion piece 75 abuts against the bottom of the discharge tray 6.

[0062] Specifically, when discharging the material, the staff member holds the handle 61 with the left hand and can press the discharging plate with the right hand to make the discharging plate move down. At this time, the limit block 73 moves down in the limit groove 72, and the extrusion piece 75 is compressed. The extrusion piece 75 can be a spring. When the discharging tray 6 is compressed to the bottom, a distance is left between the top of the discharging tray 6 and the shovel plate 24, which increases the operating space of the staff and is convenient for the staff to place the tea leaves. Then, the discharging tray 6 is rotated so that the limit block 73 is stuck in the rotating groove 74, so that the discharging tray 6 is stuck in the vertical direction. At this time, the discharging tray 6 is rotated to discharge the material. After the discharge is completed, that is, after the discharge tray 6 rotates one circle, the limit block 73 re-enters the bottom of the limit groove 72, and under the resetting action of the extruder 75, the discharge tray 6 automatically moves up, so that the bottom of the shoveling plate 24 can contact the tea leaves, which is convenient for subsequent rotation and shoveling out, and also realizes the automatic resetting of the tea leaves after loading. The operation is simple and efficient, and the efficiency of subsequent deblocking is improved while loading is realized. Moreover, under the limiting action of the limit block 73 and the limit groove 72, when the shoveling plate 24 rotates on the discharge tray 6, the discharge tray 6 is limited, thereby improving the stability during the deblocking process.

[0063] Reference Fig.10The top of the discharge tray 6 is provided with arc grooves 8 in an annular array, and the shape of the arc grooves 8 is S-shaped, and three ventilation holes 9 are provided between adjacent arc grooves 8 in an annular array.

[0064] Specifically, the arc groove 8 can not only retain the moisture of the tea leaves during the fermentation process after being moistened, but also increase the friction of the tea leaves placed on the discharge tray 6, so that the tea leaves will not be displaced or slipped due to the rotation of the discharge tray 6 when placed and taken out, thereby improving the stability during discharge, and the moisture retained in the arc groove 8 can participate in the fermentation of the tea leaves, further accelerating the fermentation process of the tea leaves, and the setting of the vent hole 9 also has the same effect, increasing the contact area between oxygen and the bottom of the tea leaves, and avoiding the accumulation of tea leaves leading to insufficient fermentation of the tea leaves at the bottom. The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 2.

[0065] Comprehensive examples 1-3, the working principle of the present invention:

[0066] The moistened tea leaves to be fermented are placed on the discharge tray 6. When discharging, the discharge tray 6 is pressed down so that it is clamped in the rotating groove 74, so that the tea leaves are continuously placed during the rotation. When the placement is completed, the discharge tray 6 moves up under the resetting action of the extruder 75, so that the discharge tray 6 moves to the bottom of the shoveling tray. After starting the motor 21, the motor 21 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the shoveling frame 23 and the shoveling plate 24 to rotate. The shoveling plate 24 also drives the fixed shaft 31 to rotate while rotating, so that the conical teeth 51 move on the first circle teeth 52 and the second circle teeth 53, and then the shoveling plate 24 shovels the tea leaves and is pushed through the baffle 35 by the rotating dispersion bar 33, so as to break and disperse the agglomerated tea leaves, which helps to prevent the tea leaves from mildewing, thereby improving the quality and shelf life of the tea leaves, and improving the fermentation efficiency of the tea leaves.
