Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to tea processing equipment, in particular to a convenient tea withering trough. Background Art

[0002] Tea withering is an important step in the tea making process, also known as withering. After the tea leaves are picked, they need to go through a certain period of withering process to allow the moisture in the tea leaves to gradually dissipate, making the tea leaves softer and easier to roll and ferment. The purpose of tea withering is to destroy the cell structure of the tea leaves, promote changes in the chemical composition of the tea leaves, and create conditions for subsequent rolling and fermentation. There are generally two methods of tea withering: natural withering and artificial withering. Natural withering is to spread the picked tea leaves in a ventilated and dry place to allow the tea leaves to gradually lose moisture under natural conditions. Artificial withering accelerates the withering process of tea leaves by controlling conditions such as temperature, humidity and ventilation.

[0003] The current tea withering device has the following problems when in use:

[0004] 1. The current tea withering device is not convenient for spreading the tea leaves when putting them in, and it is not convenient to stir the spread tea leaves during the air-drying and withering process, resulting in low withering efficiency;

[0005] 2. After the tea leaves wither, the current tea withering device needs to manually dump the tea leaves or shovel out the tea leaves and put them in the storage device, which is inconvenient to operate and has low efficiency;

[0006] 3. The hot air blower of the current tea withering device blows air directly under the tea leaves, and the fallen residues and dust can easily fall into the hot air blower, affecting the operation of the hot air blower or be deposited in the device, making it difficult to clean.
