[0022] The utility model provides a tea drying device, including a bracket 101, a rotating motor 102, a drying cylinder 103, an air supply pipe 104, an air supply assembly 105 and a flip assembly 106, wherein the flip assembly 106 includes a mounting plate 107, a rotating plate 108, a gear 109, a rack 110 and a driving member 111, wherein the driving member 111 includes a slide bar 112, a reset spring 113 and a driving ring 114, wherein the driving ring 114 has a moving groove 115, and the slide bar 112 includes a rod body 116 and a roller 117, wherein the rotation of the drying cylinder 103 drives the mounting plate 112 to rotate. 07 and the rotating plate 108 rotate, so that the rotating plate 108 can drive the tea leaves to rise. When the rotating plate 108 rotates to the top of the drying cylinder 103, the rotating plate 108 rotates under the action of the driving member 111, and then the two rotating plates 108 rotate downward and move closer together. At this time, the tea leaves carried on the rotating plate 108 will fall down, thereby turning the tea leaves and preventing the tea leaves from being crushed by external forces. It can be understood that the above scheme can be used when drying tea leaves, and can also be used to prevent the tea leaves from being crushed during the turning process.

[0023] According to this specific embodiment, the drying cylinder 103 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 101, the rotating motor 102 is mounted on the bracket 101, the air supply pipe 104 is mounted on the bracket 101, and the air supply component 105 is arranged on the bracket 101; the drying cylinder 103 is a cylinder, which is hollow inside and is provided with a feed port, a sealing cover is provided at the feed port, and an air outlet is provided above the air supply pipe 104. Hot air is transported to the air supply pipe 104 through the air supply component 105, so that the air outlet on the air supply pipe 104 can blow out hot air. When in use, the sealing cover is opened, and tea leaves are added into the drying cylinder 103, and the tea leaves are dried by the hot air blown out of the air supply pipe 104. At the same time, the rotating motor 102 drives the drying cylinder 103 to rotate, thereby turning the tea leaves over to improve the drying effect.

[0024] Among them, the mounting plate 107 is fixedly connected to the drying cylinder 103 and is located inside the drying cylinder 103, the rotating plate 108 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 107 and is arranged on the mounting plate 107, the gear 109 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 108 and is arranged on the rotating plate 108, the rack 110 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 107, meshes with the gear 109, and is located inside the mounting plate 107, the driving member 111 is arranged on the bracket 101, and drives the rack 110 to move; four mounting plates 107 are arranged inside the drying cylinder 103, two rotating plates 108 are arranged on one mounting plate 107, and the mounting plate 107 and the two rotating plates 108 form a T shape; when the drying cylinder 103 rotates, it will drive the The mounting plate 107 and the rotating plate 108 rotate, and the mounting plate 107 and the rotating plate 108 drive the tea leaves to move. When the tea leaves are driven to a high place, the driving member 111 drives the rack 110 to move upward, so that the rack 110 drives the two gears 109 to rotate, and the two gears 109 drive the two rotating plates 108 to rotate. At this time, the tea leaves carried on the rotating plate 108 will fall down. During the falling process, the tea leaves come into contact with the hot air blown out from the air supply pipe 104, thereby improving the drying effect of the tea leaves. The fallen tea leaves continue to rise and fall in the process of rotation of the drying cylinder 103, thereby improving the drying effect. At the same time, during the drying and turning process, no external force is applied to the tea leaves, so that the tea leaves become brittle after drying and are not easy to crush, thereby preventing the tea leaves from being crushed during the turning process, thereby affecting the quality of the tea leaves.

[0025] Secondly, the slide rod 112 is fixedly connected to the rack 110 and is located on one side of the rack 110; the two ends of the return spring 113 are respectively abutted against the mounting plate 107 and the slide rod 112, and the return spring 113 is sleeved on the slide rod 112; the drive ring 114 is fixedly connected to the bracket 101, abutted against the slide rod 112, and sleeved on the drying cylinder 103.

[0026] Meanwhile, the moving groove 115 is disposed on the driving ring 114 and is located at a side of the driving ring 114 away from the bracket 101 .

[0027] The moving groove 115 is arranged at the top of the driving ring 114, and the sliding rod 112 is limited by the driving ring 114 so that the sliding rod 112 squeezes the reset spring 113. At this time, the two rotating plates 108 are in an "open" state, which is convenient for driving more tea leaves to rise at one time; when the drying cylinder 103 rotates, the sliding rod 112 is driven to move. When the sliding rod 112 moves to the moving groove 115, the sliding rod 112 loses its limit. At this time, the sliding rod 112 is pressed by the reset spring 113. The rack 110 moves upward, thereby driving the rack 110 to move upward, so that the rack 110 drives the two gears 109 to rotate, and then the two rotating plates 108 are "folded up", and the tea leaves on the rotating plates 108 can fall down. When the slide bar 112 rotates to leave the moving groove 115, the slide bar 112 moves and drives the rack 110 to move, so that the rotating plates 108 can be reset, which is convenient for continuing to drive the tea leaves at the bottom of the drying cylinder 103 to rise; thereby achieving the purpose of driving the rack 110 to move.

[0028] In addition, the rod body 116 is fixedly connected to the rack 110 and is located on one side of the rack 110; the roller 117 is rotatably connected to the rod body 116 and is located at one end of the rod body 116; the rotation of the roller 117 reduces the friction between the slide rod 112 and the drive ring 114.

[0029] When using the tea drying device of this embodiment, tea leaves are added into the drying cylinder 103, and then the rotating motor 102 is started to drive the drying cylinder 103 to rotate, and the drying cylinder 103 drives the multiple mounting plates 107 and the rotating plates 108 to rotate. During the rotation of the mounting plates 107 and the rotating plates 108, the tea leaves are driven to rise. When the slide bar 112 rotates to the movable groove 115, the slide bar 112 rises under the action of the return spring 113, and then drives the rack 110 to rise, so that the rack 110 drives the two gears 109 to rotate, and then drives the two rotating plates 108 to rotate. At this time, the tea leaves on the two rotating plates 108 can fall down, and the tea leaves are dried by the hot air blown out by the air supply pipe 104 during the falling process. During the drying and turning process, the tea leaves are not subjected to external force, thereby avoiding the problem that the tea leaves become brittle and are easily crushed when turned over.
