Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Tea is a traditional drink originating from China, which is mainly made by picking, processing and baking the leaves of the tea tree called Camellia sinensis. The leaves of the tea tree can be made into many types of tea through different processing techniques. In the processing of tea, dehydration and dehumidification is a very critical step, which directly affects the quality and shelf life of the tea.

[0003] Existing tea processing dehydration and dehumidification devices usually use simple drying rooms or drying boxes to dry tea. These devices mainly heat the tea leaves through heating elements (such as electric heating wires) to remove moisture from them. However, due to design and functional limitations, these traditional devices have many shortcomings in actual use, which limit the efficiency and quality of tea drying.

[0004] Traditional drying devices can usually only heat in one direction and cannot achieve uniform turning of the tea leaves. Therefore, the tea leaves are prone to partial under-drying or over-drying during the drying process, resulting in unstable quality of the final product. Uneven drying will not only affect the taste and aroma of the tea leaves, but may also cause inconsistent color of the tea leaves, reducing the market value of the tea leaves. In addition, the hot air inside the existing device is often unable to circulate fully, and it is easy for hot air to accumulate in some areas, while the temperature in other areas is relatively low. This temperature unevenness problem further aggravates the unevenness of drying. Poor hot air circulation will lead to prolonged tea drying time and increased energy consumption, while increasing the complexity of operation. The loading and unloading process of tea leaves with traditional devices is relatively cumbersome and requires frequent manual operation. In addition, the device is inconvenient to move, which is not conducive to transfer between different processing sites. The inconvenient operation not only increases labor costs, but also may lead to low production efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of groups of wind plates are fixedly connected to the side walls of the support plate.

[0014] Preferably, the drying cylinder is placed at a certain tilted angle, the two ends of the drying cylinder are arranged in a through shape, and a ventilation groove is opened at the top of the drying cylinder to discharge the hot and humid air inside.

[0016] Preferably, movable wheels are provided at the four corners of the base.

[0017] Working principle: Put the tea leaves to be dried in the cylinder and insert the cylinder into the drying outer frame, align the plug block with the slot and insert it. After several groups of plug-ins, start the motor, the motor drives the third gear to rotate, and the third gear drives the second gear to rotate, so that the second gear drives the support plate to rotate through the rotating shaft, so that the support plate drives several groups of drying mechanisms to rotate to dry the tea leaves.

After the first gear rotates around the gear ring, the first gear will drive the drying outer frame to rotate, so that the tea leaves in the cylinder are constantly exchanged in the space in the drying cylinder to improve the uniformity of its drying. At the same time, the cylinder rotates and constantly turns the tea leaves inside. At the same time, the support plate will drive the wind plate to rotate to stir the hot air inside to prevent it from accumulating on the top.

[0018] The present invention provides a dehydration and dehumidification device for tea processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. The present invention arranges a support plate and a drying mechanism in the drying cylinder. Under the dual effects of the rotation of the drying outer frame and the revolution of the support plate, the tea leaves in the cylinder are constantly turned over and exchanged in position, so that each piece of tea can be evenly exposed to hot air, which not only improves the uniformity of drying, but also significantly shortens the drying time and improves the overall drying efficiency.

[0020] 2. The present invention arranges an air plate on the support plate and realizes a rotating mechanism in the drying outer frame, so that during the rotation process, the air plate can effectively drive the internal hot air to circulate fully, avoiding the accumulation of hot air on the top of the drying cylinder, thereby ensuring the relatively uniform distribution of the temperature inside the drying cylinder, which not only improves the efficiency of the drying process, but also significantly enhances the uniformity of the drying effect, making the drying process more efficient and consistent.

[0021] 3. The present invention uses the cylinder and drying frame structure to achieve the goal of easily taking the entire cylinder out of the device in its entirety after the drying process is completed, which not only improves the convenience of operation, but also makes it easier to replace new tea leaves to be dried. The user can directly take out and replace the cylinder during the drying operation without interrupting the operation of the machine, which greatly simplifies the entire drying process, significantly improves work efficiency, reduces the complexity of the operation, and ensures the continuity and efficiency of the entire drying operation.
