Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea cake pressing and forming, and more specifically, to a tea cake pressing and forming device for tea production. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, tea cake pressing devices used in tea production are mainly used to press loose tea leaves into tea cakes for easy storage, transportation and sale. These devices compress the tea leaves tightly into a fixed-shaped cake by applying pressure, maintaining its original aroma and quality. However, different types of tea require adjustment of the pressure applied during the pressing process according to their unique physical properties and quality requirements to ensure that the shape, density and overall quality of the tea cake meet the expected standards. This pressure adjustment is crucial to maintaining the quality of tea and consumer acceptance.

[0003] Existing tea cake forming devices have limitations in terms of pressure regulation. Common equipment mostly relies on fixed pressure settings, or the adjustment process is cumbersome and does not have the ability to quickly respond to changing needs. This lack of flexibility means that operators cannot quickly and accurately adjust the pressure when handling different types or batches of tea, which may affect the quality of the formed tea cakes. For example, soft green tea may require lighter pressure to avoid damaging the leaf structure, while compacted Pu'er tea requires higher pressure to ensure its density and forming effect.

[0029] See also Figure 1-5 A tea cake forming device for tea production comprises a fixed seat 1, which is mounted on an external device. An adjusting mechanism is arranged on the fixed seat 1. The adjusting mechanism comprises a telescopic mechanism, a push rod 2, a threaded tube 3, a hexagonal sleeve 4, a fixed sleeve 5, a pushing mechanism, a limiting rod 6, a pressing plate 7, a sliding block 8 and a fitting ring 9. The telescopic mechanism is cooperatively connected to the push rod 2 and the fixed seat 1, the threaded tube 3 is threadedly connected to the push rod 2, the hexagonal sleeve 4 is mounted on the threaded tube 3, the fixed sleeve 5 is threadedly connected to the hexagonal sleeve 4, the limiting rod 6 and the fixed sleeve 5 are coaxially arranged, the pressing plate 7 is mounted on the limiting rod 6, a plurality of fitting rings 9 are mounted on the sliding block 8, and the side wall of the limiting rod 6 A plurality of annular grooves 10 are equidistantly provided, the fitting ring 9 is stuck in the annular groove 10, the pressure plate 7 is installed on the limiting rod 6, a plurality of shrink sleeves 11 are equidistantly provided on the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 5, each shrink sleeve 11 is slidably connected to a slider 8, the pushing mechanism includes a push sleeve 12 and a thrust bearing 13, one end of the thrust bearing 13 is fitted on the hexagonal sleeve 4, the other end of the thrust bearing 13 is connected to the push sleeve 12, a push spring 14 is sleeved on the limiting rod 6, the two ends of the push spring 14 respectively abut against the push sleeve 12 and the slider 8, a synchronous sleeve 15 is coaxially provided on the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 5, the limiting rod 6 is slidably connected in the synchronous sleeve 15, and a hexagonal section 16 is provided on the side wall of the fixed sleeve 5.

[0030] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to adjust the pressure of the limit rod 6, since the fixed sleeve 5 and the hexagonal sleeve 4 are threadedly connected, the push sleeve 12 can be pressed on the push spring 14 by driving the fixed sleeve 5 to rotate along the hexagonal sleeve 4, and then the multiple sliders 8 can slide along the shrinkage sleeve 11, and the fitting ring 9 can be abutted against the annular groove 10. The compression amount of the push spring 14 can be changed by the fixed sleeve 5 and the hexagonal sleeve 4 being in different positions, so the clamping force between the fitting ring 9 and the annular groove 10 can be changed, thereby changing the pressing force on the tea leaves, thereby completing the adjustment process.

[0031] See also Figure 1As an implementation method of the telescopic mechanism: the telescopic mechanism includes a follower block 17, a handle 18 and a support frame 19, the support frame 19 is installed on the fixed seat 1, the follower block 17 is rotatably connected to the support frame 19, the handle 18 is fixedly installed on the follower block 17, the push rod 2 is slidably connected to the support frame 19, the follower block 17 is rotatably provided with a folding plate 20, the folding plate 20 is rotatably connected to the push rod 2, the fixed seat 1 is provided with a limit ring 21, the limit ring 21 is sleeved with a shell 22, and the pressure plate is slidably connected to the shell 22.

[0032] More specifically, when the tea leaves need to be pressed, the tea leaves are first placed into the outer shell 22, and then the outer shell 22 is placed into the limiting ring 21. The handle 18 drives the follower block 17 to rotate, so that the rotating folding plate 20 can be pressed on the push rod 2, thereby driving the pressing plate to be pressed on the outer shell 22. When the corresponding thrust is reached, the fitting ring 9 and the annular groove 10 are misaligned, thereby ensuring the determination of the pressing force, and completing the process of pressing the cake.

[0033] In summary, when the overall equipment is in use or running: when it is necessary to adjust the pressure of the limit rod 6, since the fixed sleeve 5 and the hexagonal sleeve 4 are threadedly connected, the push sleeve 12 can be pressed on the push spring 14 by driving the fixed sleeve 5 to rotate along the hexagonal sleeve 4, and then the multiple sliders 8 can slide along the shrinkage sleeve 11, and the fitting ring 9 can be abutted against the annular groove 10. By having the fixed sleeve 5 and the hexagonal sleeve 4 in different positions, the compression amount of the push spring 14 can be changed, so that the clamping force between the fitting ring 9 and the annular groove 10 can be changed, thereby changing the pressing force on the tea leaves, thereby completing the adjustment process.

[0034] When the tea leaves need to be pressed, the tea leaves are first placed into the outer shell 22, and then the outer shell 22 is placed into the limiting ring 21. The handle 18 drives the follower block 17 to rotate, so that the rotating folding plate 20 can be pressed on the push rod 2, thereby driving the pressing plate to press on the outer shell 22. When the corresponding thrust is reached, the fitting ring 9 and the annular groove 10 are misaligned, thereby ensuring the determination of the pressing force, and completing the process of pressing the cake.
