[0002] Tea is a beverage made from the young buds that grow on the branches of mature tea trees, which are picked and processed before being brewed. The tea preparation process usually requires frying the tea. In order to ensure that the tea can quickly take shape after frying, the fried tea needs to be cooled.
[0003] The existing cooling method is to load the tea leaves into a container and place it in a cool place for natural cooling. This method requires production personnel to wait for a long time, thereby reducing the cooling efficiency of the tea leaves. At the same time, since the tea leaves are in an open space, foreign impurities and leaves will fall into the container, reducing the production quality of the tea leaves. For this reason, we proposed a cooling device for tea processing. Utility Model Content

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. The cooling device for tea processing, through the set fixed plate, battery, semiconductor refrigeration sheet structure, the user can carry the tea leaves through the rotating drum, and then use the air pump to pump air into the outer shell, so that the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet contacts the air, quickly cools the air, and then sends the cold air into the rotating drum through the air supply pipe to contact the tea leaves, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the tea leaves.

The air cools down rapidly after contacting the semiconductor cooling sheet 12, and then enters the air supply pipe 10 through the solenoid valve, and is discharged to the base 1 through the air outlet groove 11 to contact the tea leaves, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the tea leaves.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, there are a plurality of air outlet grooves 11 , and the plurality of air outlet grooves 11 are evenly distributed along the outer wall of the air delivery pipe 10 .
[0024] In the above structure, by setting
[0025] In a preferred embodiment: the battery 3 is electrically connected to the fan 5 and the semiconductor cooling sheet 12 respectively, and the air pump 6 and the motor 7 are powered by an external power supply.
[0026] In the above structure, by setting up the battery 3, fan 5, and semiconductor refrigeration sheet 12 structure, since the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 12 will generate heat during the refrigeration process, and the silicone grease 13 and the copper plate 14 will lead the heat to the fan 5, the heat is quickly discharged by the operation of the fan 5, thereby avoiding overheating of the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 12 and reducing the refrigeration effect of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 12, thereby improving the cooling effect of the device on tea.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment: the outer wall of the rotating drum 8 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the base 1, the air supply pipe 10 penetrates the outer wall of the rotating drum 8 to the inner wall of the air supply pipe 10, a circular hole is opened on the outer wall of the rotating drum 8, and the inner wall of the circular hole is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the air supply pipe 10.
[0028] In the above structure, by setting the circular hole structure, when the drum 8 rotates, the air supply pipe 10 remains in its original state due to the activity space provided by the circular hole, and the device will not fail to operate, thereby ensuring that the tea leaves can increase the contact area with the cold air when the drum 8 rotates, further improving the cooling effect of the device on the tea leaves.

The controller can facilitate the user to control the solenoid valve to open and discharge the cold air into the base 1, thereby improving the automation of the device and facilitating operation.
[0033] Working principle: first, the user puts the tea leaves into the base 1, at which time the tea leaves will accumulate in the base 1, then the user can close the drum 8, and then drive the drum 8 to rotate through the output shaft of the motor 7, and at this time the air supply pipe 10 will not interfere with the rotation of the drum 8 due to the activity space provided by the circular hole, then the user can extract the outside air through the air pump 6, so that the air enters the shell 4, and at this time the solenoid valve is closed and cannot enter the base 1, then the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 12 performs cooling operation under the power supply of the battery 3, and the heat at the hot end will cause the fan 5 to dissipate heat through the silicone grease 13 and the copper plate 14, when the air continues to cool, the user can open the solenoid valve through the controller, so that the cold air enters the air supply pipe 10, and the cold air is discharged to the base 1 through the air outlet groove 11 and then contacts the tea leaves, and in the process of the rotation of the drum 8, the screen 9 will rotate with the drum 8, so that the contact area between the cold air and the tea leaves is increased, thereby improving the cooling effect of the device on the tea leaves.
