Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea fermentation, in particular to a tea fermentation room. Background Art

[0002] The fermentation of tea refers to the enzymatic reaction of substances inside the tea, that is, biological oxidation. After the cell wall inside the tea is damaged, the oxidases present in the cell wall promote a series of oxidation processes of catechins. After the tea is fermented, the color, aroma, and taste of the tea will change, forming the quality style of the tea.

[0003] The patent with publication number CN219644947U discloses a tea fermentation chamber, which includes a fermentation chamber body and a main shaft, wherein the main shaft is rotatably connected to the center of the top surface of the fermentation chamber body, and a placement plate is fixedly sleeved at equal intervals from top to bottom on the outer surface of the main shaft, and a top groove is opened on the top surface of the placement plate. The device has a simple connection method between the placement plate and the main shaft, and the method of rotating along the axial direction of the main shaft saves more installation space, thereby significantly improving the space utilization rate and the efficiency of tea fermentation. However, the device has the problem of laying the tea leaves flat in the top groove on the top of the placement plate. Then, a blower and a humidifier are used to inject air and water vapor from the air pipe into the mixing box, and the speed regulating motor and the main shaft are used to evenly blow, humidify and heat the tea leaves on the rotating placement plate. Although balanced blowing, humidification and heating are achieved, the tea leaves in the top groove of the placement plate cannot be turned over, which makes it difficult to evenly blow, humidify and heat the side of the tea leaves that is in contact with the top groove, thereby affecting the overall fermentation effect of the tea leaves, and then affecting the fermentation efficiency. For this reason, a tea fermentation chamber is proposed to solve the problem that it is difficult to stably turn over the tea leaves to ensure the fermentation effect in the existing tea fermentation chamber.
