Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tea sets, in particular to a water-absorbing tea tray. Background Art

[0002] Drinking tea is a traditional custom in China. Tea sets are indispensable for drinking tea, and the whole set of tea-making utensils is usually placed on a tea tray, which is both beautiful and convenient for brewing.

[0003] When brewing tea, a lot of wastewater, including water from rinsing or scalding teacups and leftover tea, is generated. This wastewater is typically poured directly onto a tea tray and then discarded. Therefore, a tea tray typically includes a holding tray for the teapot and cups, and a water storage tray. The holding tray is equipped with a water hole that allows water to flow into the water storage tray below the tea tray. The water is then poured directly into the water storage tray and retained in the water storage tray. Another type of tea tray is an integrated tray, which is a tray-like structure. Teaware is placed directly on the tray, and a drain port is provided on the tray that connects to a drainpipe to drain the water to an external container. For these types of tea tray structures, the water in the water storage tray needs to be poured out frequently, which is cumbersome to use. If the waste water is not poured out in time, the accumulated water will easily deteriorate and become smelly. When tea is poured on the tea tray, water will often accumulate on the tray. If the tray is not cleaned in time, tea stains will be left on the tray, which is inconvenient to clean. A water storage container must be provided on the outside and a water pipe must be connected for drainage. The structure is also complicated. Since the hydrophobic effect of the traditional tea tray is not ideal, there will be tea stains on the bottom of the tea set during the tea brewing process, and tea will remain on the place where the teacup is placed and needs to be cleaned with a rag.

[0004] Therefore, a water-absorbing tea tray is proposed to solve the current problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned technology and provide a water-absorbing tea tray.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is a water-absorbent tea tray, which is made of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 500-1400 parts of potassium feldspar, 100-400 parts of cement, 200-650 parts of water, 100-250 parts of aluminum oxide, 20-90 parts of calcium oxide, and 30-105 parts of copper oxide.

[0007] As an improvement, the invention is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 1000 parts of potassium feldspar, 250 parts of cement, 420 parts of water, 200 parts of aluminum oxide, 60 parts of calcium oxide, and 70 parts of copper oxide.

[0008] A method for preparing a water-absorbent tea tray comprises the following steps:

[0009] S1: Potash feldspar, cement, aluminum oxide, calcium oxide, and copper oxide are respectively put into a grinder for grinding to obtain raw material powder with a fineness of 10-1200 mesh for later use;

[0010] S2: Mix the crushed potassium feldspar, cement, aluminum oxide, calcium oxide, and copper oxide, stir them evenly, add water to the mixture, the weight of the water added is 20-35% of the weight of the mixture, stir and mix evenly, then put into a mold, place it in a place where it is naturally air-dried at 40°C, and dry it until the moisture content of the embryo is below 5%.

[0011] S3: After demoulding, the embryonic body is repaired and shaped as required and then placed in a kiln for preheating for 2 to 4 hours until the temperature reaches 300 degrees Celsius;

[0012] S4. Calcinate at 1150-1300° C. for 6-12 hours and then cool naturally to obtain a water-absorbing tea tray.

[0013] The advantages of the present invention over the prior art are that the water-absorbing tea tray can absorb and retain the tea wastewater generated during the tea brewing and drinking process, and can continue to be used after the water evaporates naturally, thereby eliminating the problems of pouring water and dealing with water accumulation on the tea tray. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The present invention may be more readily understood by referring to the following detailed description of preferred embodiments of the present invention and the included Examples. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. In the event of a conflict, the definitions in this specification shall prevail.

[0015] As used herein, the term "prepared from" is synonymous with "comprising." As used herein, the terms "comprising," "including," "having," "containing," or any other variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a composition, process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the listed elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0016] The conjunction "consisting of" excludes any unspecified element, step, or component. If used in a claim, this phrase renders the claim closed, excluding materials other than those described, except for conventional impurities associated therewith. When the phrase "consisting of" appears in a clause of the body of a claim, rather than immediately following the subject matter, it limits only the elements described in that clause; other elements are not excluded from the claim as a whole.

[0017] When amount, concentration or other value or parameter is represented with range, preferred range or the range that a series of upper preferred value and lower preferred value limit are expressed, this should be understood as specifically disclosing all ranges formed by any pairing of any range upper limit or preferred value and any range lower limit or preferred value, no matter whether this range is disclosed separately.For example, when disclosing scope "1 to 5", described scope should be interpreted as including scope "1 to 4", "1 to 3", "1 to 2", "1 to 2 and 4 to 5", "1 to 3 and 5" etc.When numerical range is described in this article, unless otherwise stated, otherwise this scope is intended to include its end value and all integers and fractions within this range.

[0018] The singular includes plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. "Optional" or "either" means that the subsequently described event or incident can or cannot occur, and that the description includes instances where the event occurs and instances where it does not.

[0019] Approximating terms in the specification and claims are used to modify a quantity to indicate that the invention is not limited to that specific quantity and includes acceptable modifications close to that quantity that do not result in a change in the relevant basic function. Accordingly, the use of "about," "approximately," or the like to modify a numerical value indicates that the invention is not limited to that exact numerical value. In some instances, approximating terms may correspond to the precision of the instrument used to measure the value. In the specification and claims of this application, range definitions may be combined and / or interchanged, and unless otherwise indicated, such ranges include all subranges contained therein.

[0020] In addition, the indefinite articles "a" and "an" before the elements or components of the present invention do not limit the quantity requirement (i.e., the number of times the elements or components appear). Therefore, "a" or "an" should be interpreted as including one or at least one, and elements or components in the singular also include plural forms, unless the number is obviously intended to be singular.

[0021] "Polymer" means a polymeric compound prepared by polymerizing monomers of the same or different types. The general term "polymer" includes the terms "homopolymer," "copolymer," "terpolymer," and "interpolymer." "Interpolymer" means a polymer prepared by polymerizing at least two different monomers. The general term "interpolymer" includes the terms "copolymer" (which is generally used to refer to a polymer prepared from two different monomers) and "terpolymer" (which is generally used to refer to a polymer prepared from three different monomers). It also includes polymers made by polymerizing more monomers. "Blend" means a polymer formed by mixing two or more polymers together by physical or chemical means.

[0022] In addition, any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be applied to the present invention.
