[0022] The utility model embodiment provides a secondary fermentation device for black tea, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the secondary fermentation equipment of black tea includes: a bottom plate 1 with a plurality of pillars; a temperature-controlled water tank 2 fixedly mounted on the top of the plurality of pillars and having a placement groove 3; a fermentation box 4 arranged on the placement groove 3; a top seat 5 arranged on the top of the temperature-controlled water tank 2; a slide groove 6 opened at the bottom of the top seat 5; a transverse movement mechanism arranged on the top seat 5, the transverse movement mechanism is used to control the transverse movement of a flipping mechanism; a flipping mechanism arranged on the transverse movement mechanism, the flipping mechanism is used to flip the fermenting black tea; a lifting mechanism arranged on the bottom plate 1, the lifting mechanism is used to control the lifting and lowering of the top seat 5.
[0023] In this embodiment, the bottom plate 1 serves as the basis of the entire device and supports the entire system. The temperature-controlled water tank 2 realizes precise control of the internal temperature of the fermentation box 4 through its internal temperature control system, thereby creating an environment suitable for the fermentation of black tea. The fermentation box 4 is placed on the placement groove 3 of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 to accommodate and ferment the black tea. The top seat 5 is installed on the top of the temperature-controlled water tank 2, and a slide groove 6 is arranged on it to provide a moving track for the transverse movement mechanism. The transverse movement mechanism works on the top seat 5 and can control the flipping mechanism to move horizontally above the fermentation box 4 to achieve uniform flipping of the fermenting black tea.

[0024] The entire device is cleverly designed, with a stable structure and easy operation. The precise temperature control of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 and the uniform turning of the black tea by the transverse movement mechanism and the turning mechanism can greatly improve the fermentation effect of the black tea and improve the product quality. At the same time, the design of the lifting mechanism also makes the operation of the device more convenient and improves work efficiency. In general, the black tea fermentation device of this patent has significant practicality and innovation, has a positive role in promoting the fermentation process of black tea, and is expected to be widely used in the field of tea processing.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the transverse movement mechanism includes: a servo motor 7 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the top seat 5; a screw rod 8 fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the servo motor 7 and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top seat 5; and a sliding plate 9 threadedly sleeved on the screw rod 8 and slidably connected to the inner walls on both sides of the slide groove 6.
[0026] In this embodiment, the servo motor 7 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the top seat 5 as the power source of the transverse movement mechanism. Its output shaft is fixedly connected to the screw 8, so that when the servo motor 7 is started, it can drive the screw 8 to rotate. At the same time, the screw 8 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top seat 5 to ensure its rotation stability. A sliding plate 9 is threadedly sleeved on the screw 8, so that when the screw 8 rotates, the sliding plate 9 can move along the axial direction of the screw 8. In addition, the sliding plate 9 is also slidably connected to the inner walls on both sides of the slide 6. This design not only limits the moving direction of the sliding plate 9 so that it can only slide along the direction of the slide 6, but also increases the stability of the movement of the sliding plate 9. Through this design, when the servo motor 7 is started, it can drive the sliding plate 9 to move horizontally in the slide 6. Since a flipping mechanism is usually installed on the sliding plate 9, this lateral movement can achieve uniform flipping of the fermenting black tea.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the flipping mechanism includes: a horizontal plate 10 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the sliding plate 9; a plurality of flipping rods 11 rotatably mounted at the bottom of the horizontal plate 10; a driving motor 12 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the horizontal plate 10 and having a single-groove synchronous wheel 13; a plurality of double-groove synchronous wheels 14 respectively fixedly mounted on the plurality of flipping rods 11, and a plurality of synchronous belts are mounted on the single-groove synchronous wheel 13 and the plurality of double-groove synchronous wheels 14.
[0028] In this embodiment, the transverse plate 10 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the sliding plate 9 as the supporting base of the flipping mechanism. At the bottom of the transverse plate 10, a plurality of flipping rods 11 are rotatably mounted. These flipping rods 11 will be directly used to flip the fermented black tea. The driving motor 12 is also fixedly mounted on the bottom of the transverse plate 10 and is provided with a single-groove synchronous wheel 13. When the driving motor 12 is started, the single-groove synchronous wheel 13 will rotate accordingly. At the same time, each flipping rod 11 is fixedly sleeved with a double-groove synchronous wheel 14. These single-groove synchronous wheels 13 and the double-groove synchronous wheels 14 are connected by a plurality of channels. The synchronous belts are connected to form a synchronous transmission system. When the driving motor 12 is started, the rotation of the single-groove synchronous wheel 13 will be transmitted to each double-groove synchronous wheel 14 through the synchronous belt, thereby driving the turning rod 11 to rotate. Since the turning rod 11 is rotatably mounted on the cross plate 10, their rotational movement will be converted into a turning action for the black tea. This design makes the turning mechanism work more stable and efficient. Through the precise control of the driving motor 12, the rotation speed and the turning angle of the turning rod 11 can be accurately adjusted, thereby ensuring the uniform turning of the black tea during the fermentation process.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the lifting mechanism includes: a plurality of rotating rods 15 rotatably mounted on the base plate 1 and having threaded blocks 16; a plurality of threaded sleeves 17 respectively threadedly sleeved on the plurality of threaded blocks 16 and fixedly connected to the top seat 5; a lifting motor 18 fixedly mounted on the base plate 1; a plurality of pulleys 19 respectively fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the lifting motor 18 and on the plurality of rotating rods 15, and a plurality of synchronous belts are sleeved on the plurality of pulleys 19.
[0030] In this embodiment, a plurality of rotating rods 15 are rotatably mounted on the bottom plate 1, and each rotating rod 15 is provided with a threaded block 16, which is threadedly sleeved with a threaded sleeve 17, and the threaded sleeve 17 is fixedly connected to the top seat 5. This design enables the threaded sleeve 17 to be lifted and lowered along the axial direction of the threaded block 16 when the rotating rod 15 rotates, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering control of the top seat 5. The lifting motor 18 is fixedly mounted on the bottom plate 1 as the power source of the lifting mechanism, and a pulley 19 is fixedly sleeved on its output shaft. At the same time, each rotating rod 15 is also provided with a plurality of threaded blocks 16. The fixed sleeve is provided with a pulley 19, and these pulleys 19 are connected by multiple synchronous belts to form a synchronous transmission system. When the lifting motor 18 is started, the rotation of its output shaft will be transmitted to each rotating rod 15 through the synchronous belt, so that they rotate synchronously. Through this design, when the top seat 5 needs to be lifted or lowered, it is only necessary to start the lifting motor 18 to drive the rotating rod 15 to rotate through the synchronous transmission system, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering movement of the top seat 5. This lifting mechanism is not only simple in structure and easy to operate, but also stable and efficient in lifting and lowering, and can well meet the lifting and lowering requirements during the fermentation process of black tea.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a heating plate 20 is provided on the inner wall of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 , and a water temperature sensor 21 is provided on the inner wall of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 .
[0032] In the present embodiment, the heating plate 20 is arranged on the inner wall of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 as the main heating element. When the temperature inside the temperature-controlled water tank 2 needs to be adjusted, the heating plate 20 can be quickly heated to increase the water temperature inside the temperature-controlled water tank 2. This design enables the temperature-controlled water tank 2 to quickly respond to temperature change requirements and ensure that the temperature inside the fermentation tank 4 is always in an optimal state. At the same time, a water temperature sensor 21 is also installed on the inner wall of the temperature-controlled water tank 2 for real-time monitoring of the water temperature inside the temperature-controlled water tank 2. Through the precise measurement of the water temperature sensor 21, the water temperature data inside the temperature-controlled water tank 2 can be obtained in real time, thereby achieving precise control of the temperature. When the water temperature sensor 21 detects that the water temperature deviates from the set value, the control system can automatically adjust the working state of the heating plate 20 to quickly restore the water temperature to the set value. This design makes the black tea fermentation device of the present invention more accurate and efficient in temperature control. Through the rapid heating of the heating plate 20 and the precise monitoring of the water temperature sensor 21, it can ensure that the temperature inside the fermentation tank 4 is always in an optimal state, thereby maximizing the fermentation effect and quality of the black tea.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a controller 22 is disposed on the top seat 5 , and the controller 22 is electrically connected to the servo motor 7 , the drive motor 12 , the lifting motor 18 , the heating plate 20 and the water temperature sensor 21 .
[0034] In this embodiment, the device can be conveniently operated and controlled by the controller 22 .
[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a water inlet is provided on the temperature-controlled water tank 2, and a plurality of handles are fixedly mounted on the fermentation box 4.
[0036] In this embodiment, water can be injected into the temperature-controlled water tank 2 through the water injection port, and the fermentation box 4 can be placed and taken out conveniently through a plurality of handles.
[0037] In summary, compared with related technologies, the present device can not only perform secondary fermentation on black tea, but also continuously turn the black tea in the fermentation box during the fermentation process, thereby improving the uniformity of black tea fermentation and making it easier to take out the fermented black tea.
