[0002] Definition of tea processing: The overall process of using necessary technology to make fresh tea leaves from tea trees into finished tea for direct drinking or as raw materials for food and medicine products is called tea processing. Tea processing can be divided into primary processing, refined processing and reprocessing according to the different processing stages. The finished tea products obtained are called primary processed tea (raw tea), refined tea (commercial tea) and reprocessed tea.

[0003] Before processing, tea leaves are generally rinsed first to keep their aroma and flavor. Currently, the methods for cleaning green leaf tea leaves are generally manual cleaning and mechanical cleaning. Manual cleaning is to manually wash the tea leaves in water. This method has a large amount of manual labor, low work efficiency, and poor cleaning effect. Mechanical cleaning generally involves placing the tea leaves in water and stirring them to achieve the purpose of cleaning. However, the tea leaves themselves are light in weight and generally float on the water surface, making them difficult to clean. Moreover, when stirring, the tea leaves will stick to the wall of the cylinder and are difficult to clean, affecting the cleaning effect. Utility Model Content
