DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following is combined with Figure 1-10 This application is described in further detail.

[0036] The embodiment of the present application discloses a tea fermentation machine.

[0037] like Figure 1-10 As shown, a tea fermentation machine comprises a fermentation box 1 and a box body 2. A classification mechanism is arranged on the fermentation box 1, and the classification mechanism comprises a fan 20, a water inlet pipe 22, a branch pipe 23, a nozzle 26 and a heating wire 27. The fan 20 is installed on one side of the box body 2, and a water inlet pipe 22 runs through one side of the box body 2. The water inlet pipe 22 is connected to the branch pipe 23, and a plurality of nozzles 26 are installed on the branch pipe 23. A heating wire 27 is installed on the top of the box body 2.

[0038] The box body 2 is provided with a flattening mechanism, which includes a multi-stage cylinder 3, a nut 4 and a flattening rake 5. A threaded column 30 is fixedly connected to the output end of the multi-stage cylinder 3, and the flattening rake 5 is sleeved on the threaded column 30. A nut 4 is threadedly connected to one side of the flattening rake 5 and is located on the threaded column 30.

[0039] It also includes a wastewater treatment box 8, on which a wastewater treatment mechanism is arranged. The wastewater treatment mechanism includes an interception box 80, a gauze screen 9, and an activated carbon filter screen 10. The interception box 80 is placed at the bottom of the wastewater treatment box 8, and two gauze screens 9 and two activated carbon filters 10 are installed on the wastewater treatment box 8 in sequence.

[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The fermentation box 1 is composed of a plurality of boxes 2. A dustproof net 21 is installed on one side of the box 2 corresponding to the fan 20. A dust filter 2000 is installed on one side of the fan 20. A temperature sensor 28 and a humidity sensor 29 are passed through the door of the box 2. A display screen 290 is installed on one side wall of the box 2.

[0041] When the humidity sensor 29 detects that the humidity value in the fermentation box 1 needs ventilation, the humidity sensor 29 transmits a signal to the display screen 290, and the display screen 290 controls the fan 20 to turn on. The fan 20 is mainly set to suck out the wind in the box 2, and fresh air flows in from the dustproof net 21 to ventilate the tea leaves. The dustproof net 21 and the dust filter net 2000 are mainly set to prevent dust from flowing onto the tea leaves.

[0042] See also Figure 3 The box body 2 is provided with a sliding groove 200, in which a sliding column 201 is slidably connected, a tea placing box 202 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the sliding column 201, and a water leakage net 2020 is installed at the bottom of the tea placing box 202;

[0043] The tea leaves to be fermented are placed in the tea placing box 202. The water leakage net 220 is provided to allow the water atomized by the nozzle 26 to flow out during the tea leaves fermentation process. Meanwhile, the sliding groove 200 is mainly provided to allow the sliding column 201 to slide better.

[0044] See also Figure 4 A hanging frame 25 is installed on the top of the box 2, a branch pipe 23 is installed on the hanging frame 25, a solenoid valve 24 is installed on the branch pipe 23, the branch pipe 23 is located below the heating wire 27 at a height of 10 cm to 15 cm, and a valve controller 150 is installed on the top of the box 2;

[0045] The hanging bracket 25 is used to position the branch pipe 23; the solenoid valve 24 is mainly used to control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 24 by the valve controller 150 when water from the external water source of the water inlet pipe 22 passes through. The solenoid valve 24 is opened and closed to supply water to the box 2 where tea leaves need to be fermented; the heating wire 27 is at a certain height away from the branch pipe 23 mainly to prevent the water mist sprayed by the nozzle 26 from splashing onto the heating wire 27; at the same time, the temperature sensor 28 is used to sense the temperature inside the box 2. When the temperature inside the box 2 needs to be increased, the box 2 transmits a signal to the display screen 290, and the display screen 290 controls the operation of the heating wire 27.

[0046] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottom of the box body 2 is provided with an inclined bottom end 203, the inclined bottom end 203 is connected to the water collection hole 204, and the half section of the water collection hole 204 is fixedly connected with a drainage pipe 6, and multiple drainage pipes 6 are commonly connected to a drainage main pipe 7;

[0047] The box body 2 is an independent fermentation agent, which can realize the functions of humidification, heating and atomization; the inclined bottom end 203 is inclined on both sides and horizontal in the middle, and the water collection hole 204 is opened at the same time, mainly to allow the wastewater to flow better from the inclined bottom end 203 into the water collection hole 204, and at the same time flow into the drainage main pipe 7 through the drainage pipe 6.

[0048] See also Figure 2 and Fig. 9 The drainage main pipe 7 passes through the wastewater treatment box 8, and an interception box 80 is placed at one end of the drainage main pipe 7. A fixing rod 81 is installed on the top of the interception box 80. The top of the fixing rod 81 is threadedly connected to the interception box 80 and extends to the wastewater treatment box 8;

[0049] When waste water flows from the main drainage pipe 7 into the waste water treatment box 8, waste residue contained in the tea leaves is intercepted and collected by the interception box 80. When the tea leaves in the interception box 80 need to be cleaned, it is only necessary to unscrew the screw 82, lift the fixing rod 81 upward and take out the waste water treatment box 8 for dumping.

[0050] See also Figure 2 and Figure 6 , two gauze screens 9 and two activated carbon filter screens 10 are clamped into a clamping block 11, and a positioning nut 12 is threadedly connected to the clamping block 11 and extends to the top of the wastewater treatment box 8;

[0051] The positioning nut 12 is used to lock the block 11 to position the gauze 9 and the activated carbon filter 10. The gauze 9 can filter large particles of residue, and the activated carbon filter 10 can filter small particles. The combination of the gauze 9 and the activated carbon filter 10 makes the filtering effect better.

[0052] See also Figure 2 and Figure 8 , one side of the multiple boxes 2 is penetrated by the input end of the multi-stage cylinder 3, and the flattening rake 5 is placed on the tea placing box 202;

[0053] The leveling rake 5 is made of alloy steel, which has good strength and toughness and can withstand the impact and friction of tea leaves on the rake teeth. At the same time, the multi-stage cylinder 3 drives the leveling rake 5 to turn the tea leaves in the tea placement box 202, which can not only make the atomization uniform, but also make the tea leaves ferment. Microorganisms need oxygen for respiration to maintain their life activities and metabolic processes during the fermentation process of the tea leaves. The vents can provide the necessary oxygen supply to ensure that the oxygen demand during the fermentation process of the tea leaves is met.

[0054] See also Figure 1A flow pipe 13 is passed through one side of the wastewater treatment box 8, and a solenoid valve 14 is installed on the flow pipe 13. One end of the solenoid valve 14 is installed on the water suction end of the water pump 15;

[0055] After the wastewater treatment box 8 is full of water, it is only necessary to open the solenoid valve 14 and the water pump 15. The water pump 15 will recycle the filtered water in the wastewater treatment box 8. The recycled water can be used to clean the inner and outer walls of the box body 2, or it can be connected to the water outlet end of the water pump 15 and the water inlet pipe 22 by a pipe to atomize the tea leaves again, thereby reducing the waste caused by direct discharge of sewage.

[0056] The implementation principle of a tea fermentation machine in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the electrical components involved in the present application document are all connected to an external power supply;

[0057] Pour tea leaves into the tea placing box 202, push the sliding column 201 into the sliding groove 200, and then close the door of the box body 2;

[0058] A water source is introduced into the box 2 with the tea box 202 through the water inlet pipe 22, and the solenoid valve 24 on the box 2 with the tea is opened by the valve controller 150, so that water is sprayed from the nozzle 26 to the tea leaves in the tea box 202 through the branch pipe 23;

[0059] The temperature sensor 28 and the humidity sensor 29 are used to control the temperature and humidity. When the temperature sensor 28 and the humidity sensor 29 feedback that the temperature and humidity in the fan 20 need to be adjusted, the display screen 290 controls the opening of the heating wire 27 and the fan 20 to make the temperature and humidity in the box 2 meet the fermentation environment of the tea leaves in the tea placing box 202;

[0060] Combining multiple boxes 2 into a fermentation box 1, so that the box 2 becomes multiple independent small units, is mainly to facilitate the classification and fermentation of different types of tea, that is, to avoid the single problem that the fermentation machine can only ferment one type of tea at a time;

[0061] During the process of humidifying the tea leaves by the nozzle 26, the multi-stage cylinder 3 is turned on, so that the multi-stage cylinder 3 drives the spreading rake 5 to move back and forth on the tea placing box 202, thereby spreading the tea leaves, so that the tea leaves can be evenly humidified, and the atomization effect can be better. At the same time, during the fermentation process of the tea leaves, the microorganisms need oxygen for respiration;

[0062] The humidified water flows into the drainage main pipe 7 through the water leakage net 2020, and then flows into the water collection hole 204, the drainage pipe 6 and the drainage main pipe 7 through the inclined bottom end 203, and finally flows into the wastewater treatment box 8 from the drainage main pipe 7. The waste residue in the wastewater flows to the interception box 80 and is intercepted and collected by it. This is the initial filtration;

[0063] In the process of flowing through the gauze 9 and the activated carbon filter 10, the gauze 9 can filter large particles of residue, and the activated carbon filter 10 can filter small particles. The combination of the gauze 9 and the activated carbon filter 10 makes the filtering effect better. After the waste water is filtered, it can be used to atomize the tea leaves again through the water pump 15, thereby reducing the waste caused by direct discharge of sewage.

[0064] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
