Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea production equipment, and more specifically refers to a tea shaping circulation machine. Background Art

[0002] In the tea-making process, after the tea leaves are withered, they need to be rolled and shaped, that is, the tea leaves are squeezed and rolled by pressure. However, rolling and shaping is not a one-time operation, but requires repeated breaking up and rolling.

[0003] For this reason, there have appeared on the market a Chinese utility model patent disclosed with authorization announcement number CN220157506U, which is a fully automatic tea forming equipment. The production equipment includes a frame, a flip mechanism, a transfer mechanism and a breaking mechanism. When in use, the tea leaves are squeezed into tea blocks by the flip mechanism, and then the flip plate is rotated to turn the tea blocks on the flip plate onto the conveyor belt, and the tea blocks are transported to the inner cylinder through the conveyor belt. Then the inner cylinder is rotated to break up the tea blocks, and at the same time, the outer cylinder moves and flips to pour the broken tea blocks in the inner cylinder into the operating tank for secondary extrusion, and then the above steps are repeated to repeatedly squeeze and break up the tea leaves. Although the equipment can break up and twist the tea leaves repeatedly, the feeding and unloading of the inner barrel of the breaking mechanism is an upside-down flipping action, and the feeding is from one end of the conveyor belt and unloading is from one end of the flap mechanism, so there needs to be a certain height difference between the feeding and unloading of the breaking mechanism. In particular, when feeding from one end of the conveyor belt, the material opening of the inner barrel is in a state of raising the head to feed, and unloading requires the inner barrel to be in a state of lowering the head to unload. This action inevitably makes the inner barrel of the breaking mechanism only able to feed at one end of the conveyor belt, but not to unload at the other end of the conveyor belt. Ultimately, the tea leaves of the equipment can only be output to other stations for drying in the form of tea blocks. However, the tea drying operation requires the tea leaves to be in a broken state, so the tea leaves produced by the equipment need to be broken up by other equipment before entering the drying process, making the tea process complicated and cumbersome, and increasing the equipment cost of the tea production chain.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The specific implementation of the embodiment of the utility model is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A tea shaping circulation machine includes a main frame 10, a tea pressing mechanism 20, a dispersing mechanism 30 and a tea lifting machine 40. The tea pressing mechanism 20 is used to squeeze tea leaves and compact the tea leaves into tea blocks, and the dispersing mechanism 30 is used to disperse the tea blocks into loose tea leaves. In this embodiment, the tea pressing mechanism 20 is a conventional three-axis flip-plate tea forming machine on the market. Its specific structure and working principle are not further described here. For example, the 80-type tea pressing machine produced by Quanzhou Lvming Machinery Co., Ltd. or the tea pressing mechanism 20 described in the background technology can be selected.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 3The scattering mechanism 30 can be movably mounted on the main frame 10 at both ends, and the tea lifting machine 40 and the tea pressing mechanism 20 are respectively located at the left and right ends of one side of the main frame 10. The discharge port of the tea pressing mechanism 20 is connected to the feeding end of the tea lifting machine 40, and the feeding port of the tea pressing mechanism 20 is opened and arranged upward.

[0026] Reference Figures 3 to 5 The scattering mechanism 30 includes a moving frame 31, a rotating seat 32 and a rotating drum 33 for scattering tea leaves. The moving frame 31 is movably mounted on the main frame 10 by means of a slide rail and a slider. The main frame 10 is also provided with a translation cylinder 34 for driving the moving frame 31 to move. The translation cylinder 34 is fixedly mounted on either end of the left or right ends of the main frame 10, and the output shaft of the translation cylinder 34 is fixedly connected to the moving frame 31. In this embodiment, the main frame 10 is preferably a rectangular frame, and the moving frame 31 of the scattering mechanism 30 is driven by the translation cylinder 34 to make a left-right translation movement on the main frame 10, thereby reducing the load of the translation cylinder 34, thereby saving equipment cost and energy consumption.

[0027] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the rotating seat 32 is rotatably pivoted on the mobile frame 31. Specifically, a bearing seat 41 is fixedly installed on the middle part of the mobile frame 31, and a rotating shaft 42 is inserted in the bearing seat 41. The top of the rotating shaft 42 is directly or fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating seat 32 through a connecting frame 43. In this embodiment, it is preferably connected through the connecting frame 43. A power mechanism for driving the rotating shaft 42 to rotate is also provided at the bottom of the rotating shaft 42. The power mechanism of the utility model can be driven by a rotating motor or a rotating cylinder 45. When driven by a rotating motor, the output shaft of the rotating motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 42. The rotating motor driving mode has a large rotation angle, but it has high requirements on the load of the motor. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is preferably driven by a rotating cylinder 45. Specifically, the power mechanism includes a rotating swing arm 44 and a rotating cylinder 45. One end of the rotating swing arm 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 42, and the other end of the rotating swing arm 44 is pivotally connected to the output shaft of the rotating cylinder 45. The bottom of the rotating cylinder 45 is pivotally connected to the mobile frame 31. In this embodiment, the telescopic action of the output shaft of the rotating cylinder 45 can push the rotating swing arm 44 to swing, thereby causing the rotating shaft 42 to rotate 90 degrees, thereby rotating the rotating seat 32 90 degrees.

[0028] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5The rotating drum 33 is horizontally mounted on the moving seat. The front end of the rotating drum 33 is provided with a drum feed opening 331. The rear end of the rotating drum 33 is provided with a rotating mechanism 35 for driving the rotating drum 33. The rotating mechanism 35 can be connected to a servo motor (not shown) through a belt or a chain. The rotating drum 33 of this embodiment is basically the same as the tea scattering drum structure on the market. It is divided into an inner and outer drum. The inner drum is driven to rotate by the rotating mechanism 35, and the outer drum is fixed and does not rotate. Its internal structure is not further described here. The drum feed opening 331 is connected to the discharge end of the tea elevator 40. Specifically, the height of the drum feed opening 331 is not higher than the discharge end of the tea elevator 40, thereby ensuring that tea can be fed from the tea elevator 40 into the rotating drum 33. In addition, the height of the drum feed opening 331 is higher than the feed opening of the tea pressing mechanism 20, thereby ensuring that tea can be poured from the rotating drum 33 into the tea pressing mechanism 20.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The movable seat is also provided with a lifting cylinder 36 for lifting the rear end of the rotating drum 33. In this embodiment, there are two lifting cylinders 36, which are respectively located on both sides of the rotating drum 33, and the output shaft of the lifting cylinder 36 is connected to the rear end or the middle part of the rotating drum 33.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 5 When the present invention is used specifically, the tea leaves are poured into the tea pressing mechanism 20 for extrusion molding, and are sent from the discharge port of the tea pressing mechanism 20 to the feeding end of the tea lifting machine 40, and are sent by the tea lifting machine 40 to the rotating drum 33 of the scattering mechanism 30 for scattering the tea leaves; when the tea leaves are scattered, the translation cylinder 34 pulls the rotating drum 33 to one end of the tea pressing mechanism 20, and the lifting cylinder 36 lifts the rotating drum 33, and pours the tea leaves back into the tea pressing mechanism 20 for further extrusion molding, thereby repeating this process for many times to complete the tea rolling molding process; when the last extrusion molding operation is completed, the tea leaves can be directly output to the next process as tea bricks, or they can be continuously sent to the rotating drum 33 for scattering, and finally, the rotating cylinder 45 operates to rotate the rotating seat 32 to the left by 90 degrees, so that the finally scattered tea leaves can be poured out from other directions, and the operation is flexible, and the unloaded tea leaves can be directly sent to the tea dryer for baking without additional scattering.

[0031] The above is only a specific implementation method of the utility model, but the design concept of the utility model is not limited to this. Any non-substantial changes to the utility model using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the utility model.
