Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tea processing technology, specifically to a constant temperature and humidity generator for tea processing. Background Technology
[0002] To prevent tea from oxidizing, deteriorating, and losing its aroma due to excessively high temperatures, or from slowing down or even stopping the necessary transformation process due to excessively low temperatures (especially for teas that require transformation, such as raw Pu-erh tea, which needs a specific temperature environment), it is necessary to install a constant temperature generator in the space or container where the tea is stored. At the same time, to prevent excessive humidity from causing the tea to mold, develop off-flavors, deteriorate in taste, or even produce toxic substances, or to prevent excessively low humidity from causing the tea to lose water too quickly, dissipate its aroma, become dry, and affect subsequent transformation or flavor development, it is necessary to install a constant humidity generator in the space or container where the tea is stored. Therefore, constant temperature and humidity generators are particularly important in tea processing.
[0003] When existing tea temperature and humidity generators are in operation, fine tea dust and tea hairs produced during tea withering, rolling, and drying will enter the generator with the airflow, causing blockage of the generator filter, reducing heat exchange efficiency, increasing energy consumption, and even shutdown. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A constant temperature and humidity generator for tea leaves includes a generator housing and a generator sealing cover. The generator sealing cover is located on the rear side of the generator housing and is snapped onto the rear side of the generator housing. Two generator clips are fixedly connected to the rear side of the generator sealing cover, and the two generator clips are arranged symmetrically from top to bottom. Several ventilation openings are opened on the front side of the generator housing, and the ventilation openings are arranged linearly from top to bottom. Two guide plates are fixedly connected to the front side of the generator housing, and the two guide plates are arranged symmetrically from top to bottom. A cleaning mechanism is provided near the top of the inner cavity of the generator housing, and a detection mechanism is provided near the bottom of the inner cavity of the generator housing.
[0006] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a rotary motor, with an L-shaped connecting plate fixedly connected to the rear side of the rotary motor. The other side of the L-shaped connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the generator housing. The power output shaft of the rotary motor passes through the inner cavity of the generator housing and is fixedly connected to a rotating plate. A slot is formed on the top of the rotating plate, and grooves are formed on both sides of the inner cavity of the slot. A movable plate is provided in the slot. Slider blocks are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the movable plate near the rear side. The sliders fit into the grooves. A movable plate is hinged to the inner cavity of the movable plate near the front side. The movable plate passes through the inner cavity of two guide plates and fits into them. Several cleaning cotton is fixedly connected to the movable plate, and the cleaning cotton fits into the adjacent vents. A spring is fixedly connected to the rear side of the movable plate, and the rear end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slot. The cleaning cotton can clean the adjacent heat dissipation vents, thereby cleaning the fine tea dust and tea hairs inside the heat dissipation vents and preventing them from affecting the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0007] Preferably, the detection mechanism includes a support plate, a vertical plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate near the front side, the bottom of the vertical plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the generator housing cavity, and two mounting blocks fixedly connected to the top of the support plate. The two mounting blocks are symmetrically arranged front and back. Two upper sliding rods are passed through the inner cavity of the two mounting blocks near the top, and two lower sliding rods are passed through the inner cavity of the two mounting blocks near the bottom. A limiting plate is sleeved on the outer sides of the two upper and two lower sliding rods. An engagement block is installed at the bottom of the limiting plate. A reciprocating screw is provided between the two mounting blocks. A central shaft is fixedly passed through the center of the reciprocating screw, and both ends of the central shaft pass through adjacent mounting blocks. The meshing block meshes with the reciprocating lead screw. A reciprocating plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the limiting plate near the top. A driven pulley is fixedly connected to the central shaft power output shaft. A driving pulley is located at the bottom of the driven pulley. A belt is fitted around the outer sides of both the driving and driven pulleys. A bottom motor is located at the front of the driving pulley. The power output shaft of the bottom motor is fixedly connected to the driving pulley. The bottom motor is located at the bottom of the support plate. When the bottom motor drives the reciprocating lead screw to rotate, the reciprocating lead screw can drive the limiting plate to move back and forth through the meshing block. When the limiting plate moves, it can drive the heat-conducting plate to insert into the heat dissipation port, so that the heat-conducting plate contacts the heat dissipation port, thus completing the purpose of detecting the current temperature of the generator shell.
[0008] Preferably, a horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the reciprocating plate, and heat-conducting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the horizontal plate. Thermally expanding microspheres are fixedly connected to the rear side of the heat-conducting plates. Side plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate. L-shaped fixing plates are fixedly connected to the top of the two side plates. Two triggers are installed at the bottom of the L-shaped fixing plates. The trigger on the rear side is higher than the trigger on the other side. Two coolers are fixedly connected to the top of the generator housing. The two coolers are arranged symmetrically on the left and right. The rotary motor is located between the coolers. The rotary motor is wirelessly connected to the trigger on the rear side. The coolers are wirelessly connected to the trigger on the front side. An air blower is installed on the front side of the generator sealing cover. The outer shell of the thermally expanding microsphere is made of acrylonitrile copolymer and is filled with isobutane. When the temperature rises to a threshold, it expands. The gas pressure inside the thermally expanding microsphere breaks through the polymer shell. When the two triggers are activated, different response functions can be achieved according to different triggers to prevent clogging of the generator filter, reduction of heat exchange efficiency, increase of energy consumption, or even shutdown.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0010] 1. This invention utilizes the interplay between components such as an L-shaped fixing plate, a reciprocating plate, a horizontal plate, a spring, a heat-conducting plate, thermally expanding microspheres, a belt, a driving pulley, a driven pulley, a bottom motor, a vertical plate, a side plate, a limiting plate, a meshing block, an upper sliding rod, a central shaft, a mounting block, a lower sliding rod, a reciprocating lead screw, and a support plate to detect the heat dissipation vents on the surface of the generator housing. When the surface temperature of the generator housing is too high, the thermally expanding microspheres expand. During their movement, the microspheres contact the trigger located at the rear, thereby activating the rotating motor to drive several cleaning cotton balls to clean the heat dissipation vents. When the surface temperature of the generator housing becomes severely high, the thermally expanding microspheres further increase in volume, thereby contacting the trigger located at the front and activating the cooler to cool the internal components of the generator.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-11 The present invention provides a technical solution:
[0024] The tea constant temperature and humidity generator includes a generator housing 1 and a generator sealing cover 2. The generator sealing cover 2 is located on the rear side of the generator housing 1 and is snapped onto the rear side of the generator housing 1. Two generator clips 3 are fixedly connected to the rear side of the generator sealing cover 2. The two generator clips 3 are arranged symmetrically from top to bottom. Several ventilation openings are opened on the front side of the generator housing 1. The ventilation openings are arranged linearly from top to bottom. Two guide plates 4 are fixedly connected to the front side of the generator housing 1. The two guide plates 4 are arranged symmetrically from top to bottom. A cleaning mechanism is provided near the top of the inner cavity of the generator housing 1. A detection mechanism is provided near the bottom of the inner cavity of the generator housing 1.
[0025] When the bottom motor 20 is started, it can drive the active groove wheel 18 to rotate through the power output shaft. The active groove wheel 18 can drive the driven groove wheel 19 to rotate through the belt 17. The driven groove wheel 19 can drive the reciprocating screw 29 to rotate through the central shaft 26. When the reciprocating screw 29 rotates, it can drive the limiting plate 23 to move back and forth by engaging with the meshing block 24. The movement trajectory of the limiting plate 23 can be lowered through the upper slide rod 25 and the lower slide rod 28. When the limiting plate 23 moves, it can drive the horizontal plate 13 to move synchronously through the reciprocating plate 12. When the horizontal plate 13 moves, it can drive the two thermal expansion microspheres 16 to move through the two heat-conducting plates 15. When the heat-conducting plates 15 move, they can insert into the heat dissipation port to complete the contact with the heat dissipation port.
[0026] The cleaning mechanism includes a rotary motor 9, with an L-shaped connecting plate 8 fixedly connected to the rear side of the rotary motor 9. The other side of the L-shaped connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the generator housing 1. The power output shaft of the rotary motor 9 passes through the inner cavity of the generator housing 1. A rotary plate 6 is fixedly connected to the power output shaft of the rotary motor 9. A slot is opened on the top of the rotary plate 6. Grooves are opened on both sides of the inner cavity of the slot. A movable plate 5 is provided in the slot. Slider 33 is fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the movable plate 5 near the rear side. The slider 33 fits into the groove. A movable plate 31 is hinged to the inner cavity of the movable plate 5 near the front side. The movable plate 31 passes through the inner cavity of the two guide plates 4 and fits into them.

A spring 14 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the movable plate 5. The rear end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slot.
[0027] When the temperature at the heat dissipation vent of the generator housing 1 is high, the thermal expansion microsphere 16 will deform. The rotation of the bottom motor 20 can drive the thermal expansion microsphere 16 to move to the rear side through the reciprocating screw 29 and contact the trigger 34 located at the rear side. When the trigger 34 located at the rear side is activated, the rotary motor 9 can be activated. When the rotary motor 9 is activated, it can drive the rotary plate 6 to rotate through the power output shaft. The rotary plate 6 can drive the moving plate 31 to move along the inside of the guide plate 4 through the movable plate 5. When the moving plate 31 moves, it can drive several cleaning cotton 32 to move synchronously. When the cleaning cotton 32 moves, it can clean the inside of several heat dissipation vents. When the generator housing 1 heats up severely, the volume of the thermal expansion microsphere 16 will further expand and trigger the trigger 34 located at the front side. When the trigger 34 located at the front side is triggered, the cooler 7 can be activated. When the cooler 7 is activated, it can cool the internal components of the generator.
[0028] The testing mechanism includes a support plate 30. A vertical plate 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 30 near the front side. The bottom of the vertical plate 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the generator housing 1. Two mounting blocks 27 are fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 30. The two mounting blocks 27 are symmetrically arranged front and back. Two upper sliding rods 25 are inserted through the inner cavity of the two mounting blocks 27 near the top. Two lower sliding rods 28 are inserted through the inner cavity of the two mounting blocks 27 near the bottom. The outer sides of the two upper sliding rods 25 and the two lower sliding rods 28 are jointly sleeved with a limiting plate 23. A meshing block 24 is installed at the bottom of the limiting plate 23. A reciprocating screw 29 is arranged between the two mounting blocks 27. A central shaft 26 is fixedly inserted through the center of the reciprocating screw 29. The front and rear ends of the central shaft 26 are both inserted through adjacent mounting blocks 27. The meshing block 24 meshes with the reciprocating screw 29. The rear side of the limiting plate 23 is near the top. A reciprocating plate 12 is fixedly connected to the center shaft 26. A driven pulley 19 is fixedly connected to the power output shaft of the center shaft 26. A driving pulley 18 is located at the bottom of the driven pulley 19. A belt 17 is sleeved on the outer side of the driving pulley 18 and the driven pulley 19. A bottom motor 20 is located in front of the driving pulley 18. The power output shaft of the bottom motor 20 is fixedly connected to the driving pulley 18. The bottom motor 20 is located at the bottom of the support plate 30. A horizontal plate 13 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the reciprocating plate 12. Heat-conducting plates 15 are fixedly connected to both sides of the horizontal plate 13. Thermal expansion microspheres 16 are fixedly connected to the rear side of the heat-conducting plate 15. Side plates 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate 30. L-shaped fixing plates 11 are fixedly connected to the top of the two side plates 22. Two triggers 34 are installed at the bottom of the L-shaped fixing plates 11. The trigger 34 located on the rear side is higher than the trigger 34 on the other side.
[0029] This invention utilizes the interplay between components such as the L-shaped fixing plate 11, reciprocating plate 12, horizontal plate 13, spring 14, heat-conducting plate 15, thermally expanding microspheres 16, belt 17, driving pulley 18, driven pulley 19, bottom motor 20, vertical plate 21, side plate 22, limiting plate 23, meshing block 24, upper sliding rod 25, central shaft 26, mounting block 27, lower sliding rod 28, reciprocating lead screw 29, and support plate 30 to enable the detection of heat dissipation vents on the surface of the generator housing. When the surface temperature of the generator housing 1 is too high, the thermal expansion microspheres 16 may expand. During the movement of the thermal expansion microspheres 16, they may come into contact with the trigger 34 located on the rear side, thereby activating the rotary motor 9 to drive several cleaning cotton 32 to clean the heat dissipation vents. When the surface temperature of the generator housing 1 is severely heated, the thermal expansion microspheres 16 may further increase in volume, thereby coming into contact with the trigger 34 located on the front side and activating the cooler 7 to cool down the internal components of the generator.
[0030] If the cooler 7 inside the generator housing 1 is activated and the heat dissipation effect is poor, the blower 10 on the generator cover 2 can be directly activated to blow out the fine tea dust and tea hairs on the heat dissipation port from the inside to the outside, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0031] Two coolers 7 are fixedly connected to the top of the generator housing 1. The two coolers 7 are arranged symmetrically on the left and right. A rotary motor 9 is located between the coolers 7. The rotary motor 9 is wirelessly connected to the trigger 34 located on the rear side. The coolers 7 are wirelessly connected to the trigger 34 located on the front side. An air blower 10 is installed on the front side of the generator sealing cover 2. The outer shell of the thermal expansion microsphere 16 is made of acrylonitrile copolymer and is filled with isobutane. When the temperature rises to the threshold, it expands and the gas pressure inside the thermal expansion microsphere 16 breaks through the polymer shell.
[0032] Working principle: When the bottom motor 20 starts, it drives the active pulley 18 to rotate via the power output shaft. The active pulley 18 drives the driven pulley 19 to rotate via the belt 17. The driven pulley 19 drives the reciprocating screw 29 to rotate via the central shaft 26. When the reciprocating screw 29 rotates, it engages with the meshing block 24, causing the limiting plate 23 to move back and forth. The upper slide rod 25 and the lower slide rod 28 can lower the movement trajectory of the limiting plate 23. When the limiting plate 23 moves, it can drive the horizontal plate 13 to move synchronously via the reciprocating plate 12. When the horizontal plate 13 moves, it can drive the two thermal expansion microspheres 16 to move via the two heat-conducting plates 15. When the heat-conducting plates 15 move, they can insert into the heat dissipation port to make contact with the heat dissipation port. When the temperature at the heat dissipation port of the generator housing 1 is high, it can cause the thermal expansion microspheres 16 to move. When deformation occurs at 6, the bottom motor 20 rotates, which drives the thermal expansion microsphere 16 to move to the rear side via the reciprocating screw 29 and contact the trigger 34 located at the rear side. When the trigger 34 located at the rear side is activated, the rotary motor 9 can be activated. When the rotary motor 9 is activated, it can drive the rotating plate 6 to rotate via the power output shaft. The rotating plate 6 can drive the moving plate 31 to move along the inside of the guide plate 4 via the movable plate 5. When the moving plate 31 moves, it can drive several cleaning cotton 32 to move synchronously. When the cleaning cotton 32 moves, it can clean the inside of several heat dissipation vents. When the generator housing 1 heats up severely, the volume of the thermal expansion microsphere 16 further expands and triggers the trigger 34 located at the front side. When the trigger 34 located at the front side is triggered, the cooler 7 can be activated. When the cooler 7 is activated, it can cool the internal components of the generator.
