Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tea processing equipment, and in particular to a tea cake pressing machine for tea production. Background Art

[0002] During the tea production process, it is sometimes necessary to process the tea into tea cakes to make the transportation of the tea easier.

[0003] A tea cake pressing machine is a device for making tea cakes. When pressing tea cakes, you first need to manually pour the steamed tea leaves into the mold of the tea cake making machine, and then use the pressing column to press the tea leaves in the mold into cakes, thereby realizing the mechanized production of tea cakes.

[0004] However, the existing tea cake pressing machine can only process tea cakes of the same diameter, and cannot process tea cakes of different shapes, resulting in a relatively monotonous processing of tea cakes, and cannot process tea cakes of different specifications. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a tea cake pressing machine for tea production to address the problem that the existing tea cake pressing machine can only process tea cakes of the same diameter and cannot process tea cakes of different shapes, resulting in the processing of tea cakes being relatively single and unable to process tea cakes of different specifications.

[0006] The present application provides a tea cake pressing machine for tea production, comprising:

[0007] Workbench;

[0008] A pressing assembly, the pressing assembly is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench, the pressing assembly includes a pressing table, a surrounding plate, a positioning slide, a hydraulic cylinder and a pressing column, the bottom surface of the pressing table is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench, the top surface of the workbench is provided with a positioning slide, the surrounding plate is fixedly connected to the positioning slide, the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the workbench, and the pressing column is fixedly connected to the driving rod of the hydraulic cylinder;

[0009] A pressure assembly, the pressure assembly comprising a pressure plate, a sensor and a display, the pressure plate being arranged between the top surface of the workbench and the bottom surface of the pressing table, one end of the sensor being against the bottom surface of the pressure plate, the other end of the sensor being fixedly connected to the workbench, and the sensor being communicatively connected to the display.

[0010] The present application relates to a tea cake pressing machine for tea production, in which a surrounding plate slides in a positioning slide to cooperate with a pressing table to form a pressing mold. Since the pressing table and the surrounding plate have multiple specifications, the specifications of the mold can be freely determined according to the specifications of the tea cakes to be pressed. After the multiple surrounding plates are closed, the tea leaves are placed in the space formed by the pressing table and the multiple surrounding plates, and then the hydraulic cylinder drives the pressing column to move, so as to press the tea leaves into tea cakes. After the pressing is completed, the surrounding plate is moved along the positioning slide in a direction away from the pressing table, so as to facilitate the removal of the pressed tea cakes. When the pressing column presses the tea cakes, the pressure plate on the bottom of the pressing table will move downward due to the pressure from the pressing column, thereby triggering the sensor. The sensor displays the detected pressure through a display, so that the user can observe the pressure of this pressing in real time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0023] The present application provides a tea cake pressing machine for tea production.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the tea cake pressing machine for tea production includes a workbench 100, a pressing assembly 200 and a pressure assembly 300.

[0025] The pressing assembly 200 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench 100. The pressing assembly 200 includes a pressing table 201, a surrounding plate 202, a positioning slide 203, a hydraulic cylinder 204 and a pressing column 205. The bottom surface of the pressing table 201 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench 100. The top surface of the workbench 100 is provided with a positioning slide 203. The surrounding plate 202 is fixedly connected to the positioning slide 203. The hydraulic cylinder 204 is fixedly connected to the workbench 100. The pressing column 205 is fixedly connected to the driving rod of the hydraulic cylinder 204. The pressure assembly 300 includes a pressure plate 301, a sensor 302 and a display 303. The pressure plate 301 is arranged between the top surface of the workbench 100 and the bottom surface of the pressing table 201. One end of the sensor 302 abuts against the bottom surface of the pressure plate 301. The other end of the sensor 302 is fixedly connected to the workbench 100. The sensor 302 is in communication connection with the display 303.

[0026] In this embodiment, the surrounding plate 202 slides in the positioning slide 203 to cooperate with the pressing table 201 to form a pressing mold. Since the pressing table 201 and the surrounding plate 202 have multiple specifications, the specifications of the mold can be freely determined according to the specifications of the tea cakes that need to be pressed. After the multiple surrounding plates 202 are closed, the tea leaves are placed in the space formed by the pressing table 201 and the multiple surrounding plates 202. Then the hydraulic cylinder 204 drives the pressing column 205 to move, so as to press the tea leaves into tea cakes. After the pressing is completed, the surrounding plate 202 is moved along the positioning slide 203 away from the pressing table 201, so as to facilitate the removal of the pressed tea cakes. When the pressing column 205 presses the tea cakes, the pressure plate 301 on the bottom of the pressing table 201 will move downward due to the pressure from the pressing column 205, thereby triggering the sensor 302. The sensor 302 displays the detected pressure through the display 303, so that the user can observe the pressure of this pressing in real time.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the pressing platform 201 includes a cylinder or a cuboid, and a plurality of positioning rods 206 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pressing platform 201. A positioning groove 207 is formed on the side wall of each positioning rod 206. The positioning rod 206 is fixedly connected to the positioning groove 207 to achieve a fixed connection between the pressing platform 201 and the workbench 100.

[0028] Specifically, when the pressing platform 201 is in the shape of a cylinder, the positioning rods 206 are distributed along the circumference of the bottom center of the pressing platform 201 .

[0029] When the pressing platform 201 is in the shape of a cuboid, the positioning rods 206 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the bottom surface of the pressing platform 201 .

[0030] Optionally, the pressing platform 201 has various shapes and diameters. For example, a cylindrical pressing platform 201 may have various diameters. Moreover, the shape of the pressing platform 201 is not limited to a cylinder and a cuboid. The pressing platform 201 may be selected according to the shape of the tea cake to be pressed.

[0031] In this embodiment, a pressing table 201 having the same shape as the tea cake is selected as the pressing table 201 , and the positioning rod 206 on the bottom surface of the pressing table 201 is inserted into the positioning hole 102 on the top surface of the workbench 100 , so that the pressing table 201 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench 100 .

[0032] After the pressing platform 201 is fixed, the hydraulic cylinder 204 and the pressing column 205 can be coordinated to press the tea leaves into tea cakes with the same diameter as the pressing platform 201 .

[0033] like Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the positioning slide 203 is set to be multiple, and the multiple positioning slides 203 are arranged equidistantly in a circle with the physical center of the bottom surface of the pressing platform 201 as the center, and each positioning slide 203 corresponds to a positioning rod 206.

[0034] Specifically, the more the number of positioning slides 203 is, the more surrounding plates 202 need to be provided, so that the surrounding of the pressing platform 201 is more precise, but the pressing steps will become more complicated. If the number of positioning slides 203 is too small, it will be difficult for the surrounding plates 202 to completely surround the pressing platform 201, so it is recommended that the number of positioning slides 203 is between 2 and 4.

[0035] In this embodiment, the surrounding plates 202 are fixed by multiple positioning slides 203 radially arranged along the center of the bottom surface of the pressing platform 201. At least one surrounding plate 202 is arranged in each positioning slide 203, and the surrounding plates 202 slide along the positioning slide 203 toward the pressing platform 201, so that the multiple surrounding plates 202 can surround the pressing platform 201. After that, the tea leaves can be placed in the space formed by the pressing platform 201 and the multiple surrounding plates 202, and the pressing column 205 is driven to move by the hydraulic cylinder 204, so that the tea leaves are pressed into tea cakes.

[0036] After the tea cake is pressed, the surrounding plate 202 can be moved away from the pressing platform 201 along the positioning slide 203, thereby releasing the space formed by the pressing platform 201 and the surrounding plates 202, making it easier to take out the pressed tea cake.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the enclosing plate 202 is set in plurality, and the enclosing plate 202 is in the shape of an arc or a rectangular parallelepiped. The plurality of enclosing plates 202 are arranged in a ring with the physical center of the bottom surface of the pressing platform 201 as the center of the circle. The bottom surface of each enclosing plate 202 is fixedly connected to a slider 208, and each enclosing plate 202 is fixedly connected to the positioning rod 206 through the slider 208.

[0038] Specifically, pressing plates of different specifications correspond to surrounding plates 202 of different shapes, so that the surrounding plates 202 can completely surround the pressing platform 201 after being closed, avoiding gaps between the surrounding plates 202, which may cause problems in pressing the tea cakes.

[0039] In this embodiment, by selecting an enclosing plate 202 that matches the shape of the pressing platform 201 and enclosing the pressing platform 201 with a plurality of enclosing plates 202, the slider 208 on the bottom surface of the enclosing plate 202 can enable the enclosing plate 202 to slide along the positioning slide 203, and when the enclosing plate 202 is against the side of the pressing platform 201, the slider 208 can dock with the positioning groove 207 on the side wall of the positioning rod 206, thereby fixing the enclosing plate 202 and preventing the enclosing plate 202 from sliding in the positioning slide 203.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, a connecting member 209 is arranged between the hydraulic cylinder 204 and the pressing column 205, and the connecting member 209 includes a connecting groove 209a and a connecting buckle 209b. The connecting groove 209a is opened on the bottom surface of the driving rod of the hydraulic cylinder 204, and the connecting buckle 209b is fixedly connected to the top surface of the pressing column 205. The connecting buckle 209b is clamped in the connecting groove 209a to realize the fixed connection between the pressing column 205 and the hydraulic cylinder 204.

[0041] Specifically, the pressing column 205 also has various specifications and corresponds one-to-one with the pressing table 201 to ensure that the pressing column 205 can cooperate with the pressing table 201 of different shapes to press the tea leaves into tea cakes of different diameters.

[0042] In this embodiment, after the tea leaves are placed in the space formed by the surrounding plate 202 and the pressing table 201, the pressing column 205 is driven downward by the hydraulic cylinder 204 to press the tea leaves into tea cakes.

[0043] Since the pressing column 205 and the hydraulic cylinder 204 are connected together by the connecting piece 209, the installation and disassembly of the pressing column 205 are easier, so that the pressing column 205 can be replaced along with the selection of the shape of the pressing platform 201 to ensure that the pressing column 205 can always enter the space formed by the surrounding plate 202 and the pressing platform 201.

[0044] For example, if the currently selected pressing table 201 has a diameter of 15 cm and a circular top surface, then a cylindrical pressing column 205 with a diameter of 15 cm should be selected. If a pressing column 205 with a diameter that is too large is selected, the bottom surface of the pressing column 205 will abut against the top surface of the surrounding plate 202 and will not be able to press down. If a pressing column 205 with a diameter that is too small is selected, a gap will be left between the pressing column 205 and the surrounding plate 202, resulting in the diameter of the pressed tea cake not meeting the requirements.

[0045] like Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, a pressure groove 304 is provided on the top surface of the workbench 100, the pressure plate 301 is slidably connected to the pressure groove 304, and a return spring 305 is fixedly connected between the top surface of the pressure groove 304 and the bottom surface of the pressure plate 301.

[0046] Specifically, there are multiple return springs 305 , and the multiple return springs 305 are arranged at equal intervals on the bottom surface of the pressure plate 301 .

[0047] In this embodiment, the pressure plate 301 is arranged in the pressure groove 304, so that when the pressing platform 201 is subjected to the pressure from the pressing column 205, the pressure plate 301 will slide downward along the pressure groove 304, thereby triggering the sensor 302. The sensor 302 displays the detected pressure through the display 303, so that the user can observe the pressure of this pressing in real time. After the pressing is completed, the pressing column 205 is reset, causing the pressure plate 301 to no longer bear the pressure from the pressing column 205, and the reset spring 305 works to reset the pressure plate 301.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the sensor 302 is provided in plurality, and the plurality of sensors 302 are arranged at equal intervals on the bottom surface of the pressure plate 301 .

[0049] Specifically, the sensor 302 is a pressure sensor.

[0050] In this embodiment, the pressure at different positions of the pressure plate 301 is detected by multiple sensors 302, and the detected pressure is displayed through the display 303. The multiple sensors 302 can ensure that when a problem occurs in one sensor 302, other sensors 302 can still work normally, thereby improving the stability of operation.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the display 303 is fixedly connected to the workbench 100, and the display 303 is electrically connected to an external power source.

[0052] Specifically, if only one display 303 is set, then the display 303 displays the pressure detected by the main sensor 302. If multiple displays 303 are set, then each display 303 can display a corresponding pressure detected by a sensor 302, so that the user can more directly observe the pressure exerted on the pressure plate 301.

[0053] In this embodiment, the pressure of the pressure plate detected by the sensor 302 is displayed through the display 303, so that the user can directly observe the pressure of the pressure plate during the pressing of the tea cake to determine whether the pressure meets the standard.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the top surface of the workbench 100 is fixedly connected to the cross arm 101, the bottom surface of the hydraulic cylinder 204 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cross arm 101, and the pressing column 205 is arranged coaxially with the pressing platform 201.

[0055] Specifically, the cross arm 101 is U-shaped.

[0056] In this embodiment, the pressing column 205 is driven to move by the hydraulic cylinder 204, so as to press the tea leaves into tea cakes. The pressing column 205 and the pressing platform 201 are axially arranged to ensure that the pressing column 205 can smoothly enter the space formed by the surrounding plate 202 and the pressing platform 201, and enable the pressing column 205 to fully press the tea leaves on the top surface of the pressing platform 201 into tea cakes.

[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, a positioning hole 102 is opened on the top surface of the workbench 100, and the positioning rod 206 is fixedly connected to the workbench 100 through the positioning hole 102, and the diameter of the positioning rod 206 is equal to the diameter of the positioning hole 102.

[0058] In this embodiment, the position of the pressing table 201 is determined by the positioning hole 102, and because the pressing table 201 and the workbench 100 are connected by inserting the positioning rod 206 into the positioning hole 102, it is easier to replace the pressing table 201.

[0059] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined, and the execution order of the method steps is not limited. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0060] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
