There are gaps between the multiple diverter blocks 42 facing each other, so that the material can flow out of the diverter hole 41 through the gaps, and the multiple tilted diverter blocks 42 can slow down the speed of the tea leaves flowing out of the diverter hole 41, so as to avoid the tea leaves piling up on the filter plate 2 due to excessive material discharge.

[0026] In an optional embodiment: a guide hopper 31 is connected between the feed hopper 3 and the rectangular diverter 4, the upper and lower ends of the guide hopper 31 are open, the guide hopper 31 is arranged in a mouth shape, and the top view cross-sectional area of ​​the guide hopper 31 is equal to or smaller than the top view cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular diverter 4, so that the tea leaves in the feed hopper 3 can be evenly introduced to the top of the rectangular diverter 4, and then evenly enter the diverter flow hole 41.

[0027] In an optional embodiment: both ends of the rectangular divider 4 have sliders 40, and both sides of the top of the rectangular frame 1 are provided with slide grooves 100 matching the sliders 40, and the slide grooves 100 are opened along the length direction of the rectangular frame 1. The rectangular divider 4 is slidably connected to the slide grooves 100 through the sliders 40, so that the rectangular divider 4 can slide in the length direction above the rectangular frame 1.

[0028] In an optional embodiment: it also includes a moving component, the moving component includes a driving motor 5, a threaded rod 51 and a moving block 52, the driving motor 5 is installed on one side of the rectangular frame 1, one end of the threaded rod 51 is connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 5, the other end of the threaded rod 51 is rotatably connected to the rectangular frame 1, and the threaded rod 51 is arranged along the length direction of the rectangular frame 1, the moving block 52 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 51, and one end of the moving block 52 is fixedly connected to the slider 40, so that when the threaded rod 51 is rotated by the driving motor 5, the rectangular flow divider 4 and the feed hopper 3 arranged on one side of the moving block 52 can be synchronously driven to move.

[0029] In an optional embodiment: the withering part includes a hot air blower 7 and an air outlet pipe 71, the air outlet pipe 71 is connected to the top air outlet end of the hot air blower 7, and the hot air blower 7 is fixedly connected to the moving block 52 through a connecting frame 72, so that the hot air blower 7 can be moved synchronously while the moving block 52 is moved, so that the hot air blower 7 can better dry and wither the tea leaves after loading and unloading the rectangular frame 1.

[0030] In an optional embodiment: a first electric telescopic rod 61 is installed at one end of the rectangular frame 1 close to the feed hopper 3 through a mounting frame, and the other end of the rectangular frame 1 is opened to facilitate material unloading. A push plate 62 is provided on the top of the filter plate 2, and the push plate 62 extends along the width direction of the rectangular frame 1. The output rod of the first electric telescopic rod 61 is movable through the rectangular frame 1 and connected to the push plate 62.

In this area, the tea leaves are evenly dispersed to various positions through the diverter holes 41 to avoid a large amount of tea leaves piling up. As the rectangular diverter 4 moves into the next area of ​​the filter plate 2, the tea leaves can be evenly scattered into the next area until the rectangular diverter 4 moves all areas on the filter plate 2, so that the tea leaves can be evenly scattered into all areas on the filter plate 2 to avoid piling up, so that the hot air blower 7 can evenly heat the tea leaves, which has a good withering effect on the tea leaves.

[0033] After the tea leaves are evenly sprinkled into all areas on the filter plate 2, the baffle 81 is driven by the second electric telescopic rod 8 to seal the bottom of the rectangular diverter 4, and then the hot air blower 7 connected to the connecting frame 72 is repeatedly driven by the controller to move in the lower direction of the filter plate 2, so that the hot air blower 7 can fully dry and heat the tea leaves, further enhancing the withering effect of the tea leaves.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
