[0028] See also Figures 1 to 5The embodiment of the present application provides a tea drying machine, comprising: a shell 1, a drying barrel 2, an elastic arc plate 21, a heating device 3 and a shaking device 4. A rotating shaft 11 is provided on the top of the shell 1, and a shell 1 cover is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 11; a drying barrel 2 is provided in the shell 1, and an elastic arc plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the drying barrel 2, and a heating device 3 is provided between the shell 1 and the drying barrel 2; a shaking device 4 is provided below the drying barrel 2, and the shaking device 4 comprises an arc-shaped top plate 41, which is arranged below the elastic arc plate 21, and a telescopic spring 42 is connected to the bottom surface of the arc-shaped top plate 41, and the other end of the telescopic spring 42 extends to the outer bottom of the shell 1 through a through hole 13 at the bottom of the shell 1, and the other end of the telescopic spring 42 is connected to a connecting plate 43, and one side of the connecting plate 43 is rotatably connected to one end of a bottom plate 45, and the other end of the bottom plate 45 is rotatably connected to a pressing plate 44.

[0029] Furthermore, in order to ensure the heating effect of the heating coil 32 and the heating rod 33 on the inside of the drying barrel 2, a plurality of air holes distributed in an array are provided around the outer wall of the drying barrel 2.

[0030] Working principle and effect: During the tea drying process, the tea leaves are poured into the drying barrel 2, the outer shell 1 cover is closed, and the heating device 3 is started. The heating device 3 located between the outer shell 1 and the drying barrel 2 heats the inside of the drying barrel 2. At this time, the tea leaves are piled up at the bottom of the drying barrel 2. In order to avoid the tea leaves from piling up for a long time and ensure that the tea leaves are heated evenly, the shaking device 4 under the drying barrel 2 is started. Specifically, when the pressing plate 44 is pressed down, the connecting plate 43 is pressed down by the pressing plate 44, and the connecting plate 43 is connected to a telescopic spring 42, and the other end of the telescopic spring 42 is connected to an arc-shaped top plate 41, which is located inside the outer shell 1. Therefore, the pressing plate 44 is pressed downward to cause the connecting plate 43 to rotate downward, and the telescopic spring 42 on the connecting plate 43 will carry the arc-shaped top plate 41 connected to its other end. The pressing plate 44 is rotated and lifted upward, and the connecting plate 43 loses the downward pressing force and rotates upward, so that the elastic force of the telescopic spring 42 is released, and the telescopic spring 42 is ejected upward, thereby driving the arc-shaped top plate 41 to push upward. Because an elastic arc plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the drying barrel 2, when the arc-shaped top plate 41 pushes upward to the bottom surface of the elastic arc plate 21, the elastic arc plate 21 obtains an upward elastic force, thereby bouncing the tea leaves on the elastic arc plate 21. The pressing plate 44 is rotated repeatedly in this way, so that during the drying process of the tea leaves, the tea leaves are always in a state of bouncing and falling, which effectively avoids the accumulation of the tea leaves, ensures that the tea leaves are heated evenly, and improves the drying effect of the tea leaves.

[0031] In one embodiment, Figure 3 to Figure 4As shown, the heating device 3 includes a heater 31, which is arranged on the outer wall of the housing 1. The heater 31 is connected to a heating coil 32, which is sleeved on the outer side of the drying barrel 2. The heating coil 32 is connected to a plurality of heating rods 33, which are arranged in a circular array around the outer side of the drying barrel 2. The heating device 3 includes a heating coil 32 and a heating rod 33, and the plurality of heating rods 33 are arranged around the outer side of the drying barrel 2, so that the internal cavity of the drying barrel 2 is heated evenly, so that tea leaves at different positions in the drying barrel 2 are not heated differently, and the tea leaves are further heated evenly during the drying process, thereby further improving the drying effect of the tea leaves.

[0032] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a projection 46 is provided on the other side of the connecting plate 43, and a barb structure 47 is provided on the pressing plate 44, and the barb structure 47 is adapted to the projection 46. Since both the pressing plate 44 and the connecting plate 43 can rotate, in order to avoid slipping during the rotation process and affecting the tensioning effect of the spring, the projection 46 and the matching barb structure 47 are provided, and when the pressing plate 44 is pressed down, the barb structure 47 is engaged with the projection 46 to prevent slipping.

[0033] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the cover of the shell 1 is provided with an air outlet 14. During the drying process, tea leaves evaporate water, and the evaporated water stays inside the dryer, increasing the humidity inside the dryer and reducing the drying effect of the tea dryer. For this reason, the cover of the shell 1 is provided with an air outlet 14 to facilitate the water vapor to evaporate out of the shell 1.

[0034] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, a first support rod 451 is provided at one end of the bottom plate 45, a first rotating shaft 453 is provided on the first support rod 451, and a pressing plate 44 is connected to the first rotating shaft 453; a second support rod 452 is provided at the other end of the bottom plate 45, a second rotating shaft 454 is provided on the second support rod 452, and a connecting plate 43 is connected to the second rotating shaft 454. The first support rod 451 provides support for the first rotating shaft 453, and the first rotating shaft 453 drives the pressing plate 44 to rotate; the second support rod 452 provides support for the second rotating shaft 454, and the second rotating shaft 454 drives the connecting plate 43 to rotate.

[0035] Furthermore, a driving motor is provided on the first support rod 451 , and the driving motor is used to drive the first rotating shaft 453 to rotate, thereby driving the pressing plate 44 to rotate, thereby realizing the lifting and pressing down actions of the pressing plate 44 .

[0036] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a support frame 5 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1. The support frame 5 provides support for the housing 1, so that there is a distance between the housing 1 and the ground, providing space for the installation of the shaking device 4.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
