[0003] The existing fermenter completes the fermentation work by putting the fermentation tray filled with tea leaves into the fermenter and then exchanging the internal gas through heating. Such fermenters have the following disadvantages: First, the tea leaves on the fermentation tray are piled up, resulting in uneven heating, affecting the fermentation degree, and thus affecting the quality and taste of the tea. Second, the fermenter uses electricity heating and steam, and cannot fully heat multiple fermentation trays, making the tea leaves in the fermentation trays heated unevenly, resulting in a decline in the quality of the tea leaves.

One end of the hinged connecting rod is hinged to the lower surface of the adjacent arc-shaped slider through a pin shaft. The gears of the hinged connecting rods are meshed with the gears of the corresponding hinged connecting rods. One end of one of the hinged connecting rods is hinged to the lower surface of the fixed annular groove through a pin shaft.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, by moving the arc-shaped slider along the annular chute in the fixed chute, the folded hinged connecting rods can be driven to unfold or gather. When the hinged connecting rods gather, the turnover device does not affect the entry of the fermentation storage tray.

After several fermentation and holding trays 31 are placed in sequence, close the cabinet door;

[0058] After the electric push rod 42 in the drive housing 4 is started, it pushes the drive motor 41 to move, so that the gear on the output shaft of the drive motor 41 can be engaged with the gear on the drive rod 43. Then the drive motor 41 is started to drive the drive rod 43 to rotate. The rotation of the drive rod 43 can drive the drive rocker 24 located on the transmission housing 23 to deflect through the cooperation of the synchronous belt and the synchronous pulley. One end of the drive rocker 24 drives an arc-shaped slider 21 to move in the annular groove of the fixed ring groove 2, and then drives the hinge connecting rod 22 to deflect. After the hinge connecting rod 22 deflects correspondingly through the gear, the gathered hinge connecting rods 22 are unfolded, and the first turnover mechanism and the second turnover mechanism are located above the fermentation and holding tray 31;

[0059] After the bevel gear on the rotating lead screw 63 meshes with the arc bevel gear 68, as the rotating lead screw 63 deflects, the bevel gear on the rotating lead screw 63 rotates on the arc bevel gear 68, driving the rotating lead screw 63 to rotate. After the rotation of the rotating lead screw 63 drives the threaded sleeve 64 to move, it drives the collar 65 connected to it to move. The movement of the collar 65 pushes the turning lever 66 to deflect outward through the push rod 67. Then, the turning lever 66 can contact the tea leaves. At the same time, the bevel gear in the gear set 61 on the support base 6 can mesh with the bevel gear on the double-sided gear 51. After the double-sided gear 51 meshes with the gear on the transfer rod 5 and is limited, the bevel gear in the gear set 61 rotates on the double-sided gear 51, so as to drive the rotating sleeve 62 to rotate;

[0060] At the same time, the movement of an arc-shaped slider 21 drives the limit frame 7 to move. The movement of the limit frame 7 enables the lifting roller 79 on the connecting seat 71 to roll in the spiral chute 78. Then, following the trajectory of the spiral chute 78, the connecting seat 71 descends, so that the bevel gear of the inclined plane crank 72 on the connecting seat 71 can mesh with the bevel gear on the double-sided gear 51, and the spring is stretched;

[0061] After the push rod starts, it pushes the drive motor 41 to move on the slide rail, so that the gear of the drive motor 41 meshes with the gear of the rotating rod 44. After the drive motor 41 starts, it drives the rotating rod 44 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 44 drives the rotating shaft 32 to rotate through the transmission of the synchronous belt and synchronous pulley. One end of the rotating shaft 32 drives the rotating frame 3 to rotate through the gear, so as to drive the fermentation holding rack to rotate. At the same time, the gear of the rotating rod 44 meshes with the gear of the transfer rod 5, driving the transfer rod 5 to rotate. The gear on the transfer rod 5 drives the double-sided gear 51 to rotate. The rotation of the double-sided gear 51 can drive the meshing gear set 61 to rotate. The gear set 61 can drive the rotating sleeve 62 to rotate and then drive the turning lever 66 to rotate, turning the tea leaves on the rotating fermentation holding tray 31. At the same time, the rotation of the double-sided gear 51 can drive the inclined plane crank 72 to rotate. Then, the inclined plane crank 72 drives the articulated seat 73 to move backward through the arc-shaped connecting plate 74. The articulated seat 73 drives the piston push rod 75 to push the two turning rods 77 in the limit sleeve 76 to move alternately, turning the tea leaves;

[0062] When it is necessary to heat the tea leaves, the heated gas is transported through the main pipeline 8. The heated gas is divided and enters the air supply hose 81. The air supply nozzle 82 of the air supply hose 81 blows the tea leaves on the fermentation holding tray 31, so that the tea leaves can be heated while being blown. It is also possible to transport the heated mist into the main pipeline 8, so as to increase the humidity while heating the tea leaves. The air in the fermentation cabinet 1 is sucked by the fan 11 to complete the air replacement.

[0063] As described above, it is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention. However, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, making equivalent substitutions or changes should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
