Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tea processing devices, and particularly relates to a tea cake pressing device. Background Art
[0002] In tea production, in order to facilitate the storage of summer and autumn tea and also facilitate the initial aging and transformation of tea, some dark tea, white tea, and black tea are generally made into tea cakes. In the traditional tea cake making process, the weighed loose tea is first steamed soft on steam, and then the steamed loose tea is put into a steaming cloth bag with a circular bottom. Workers manually trim the shape of the steaming cloth bag filled with loose tea and initially compact it, and then place it under a stone pile, and workers step on the stone pile to perform secondary compaction. During the process, the tea needs to be transferred between two or three workstations, and the tea also needs to be imported from the steaming barrel into the steaming cloth bag, and the process is slightly cumbersome. At the same time, this process generally requires two people to cooperate to complete. One person is responsible for weighing the loose tea and placing it on the steam, and then putting the steamed loose tea into the steaming cloth bag. This step is relatively simple. The other person is responsible for trimming the shape, initially compressing, and secondary compressing. This step is relatively laborious and has a large working intensity, and is generally completed by male workers.
[0003] Most of the existing tea cake pressing devices use a top extension device to control the pressing block to squeeze the device for holding the initially compacted tea, replacing the secondary pressing by workers stepping on the stone pile. However, before using the device for secondary pressing, the tea still needs to be transferred between workstations, imported from the steaming barrel into the steaming cloth bag, and the loose tea is initially compacted, and the steps of tea cake pressing cannot be well simplified. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a tea cake pressing device to solve the technical problems of cumbersome steps and laborious tea cake pressing process in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the specific technical solution of the utility model is as follows:
[0006] A tea cake pressing device includes an operation table, an integrated tea barrel, a tea steaming mechanism, and a tea pressing mechanism. A stepped hole is provided on the tabletop of the operation table, and the integrated tea barrel is placed on the stepped hole. The upper end of the integrated tea barrel is open, and air-permeable small holes are evenly distributed on the bottom surface. The tea steaming mechanism is arranged directly below the stepped hole of the operation table. The tea pressing mechanism includes a support slide rail, a telescopic mechanism, and a pressing head. The support slide rail is erected on the operation table. The fixed end of the telescopic mechanism is vertically arranged on the support slide rail through a sliding seat and has a degree of freedom to slide relative to the support slide rail. The pressing head is fixed to the top extension end of the telescopic mechanism and points to the operation table. There is a clearance fit between the side surface of the pressing head and the integrated tea barrel. The pressing head has a degree of freedom to slide to directly above the integrated tea barrel at the stepped hole and sink into the integrated tea barrel on the stepped hole under the drive of the sliding seat and the telescopic mechanism.
[0007] The tea steaming mechanism includes a steam barrel and a heating device arranged inside the steam barrel. The top surface of the steam barrel is pressed against the bottom surface of the operating table through a sealing gasket. A visible liquid level window is arranged on the side surface of the steam barrel. The heating device is externally connected to a power supply, and a water injection port is arranged on the upper side surface of the steam barrel.
[0008] A limiting cylinder that is in clearance fit with the outer diameter of the integrated tea barrel is also fixed on the operating table. The integrated tea barrel is higher than the limiting cylinder, and the limiting cylinder coincides with the axis of the stepped hole.
[0009] When the sliding seat slides to one end of the support slide rail, the pressing head coincides with the axis of the limiting cylinder. When it slides to the other end of the support slide rail, the pressing head is located outside the upper space of the limiting cylinder.
[0010] The top side surface of the integrated tea barrel extends outward to form an auxiliary pressing edge.
[0011] It further includes a feeding funnel. The lower part of the feeding funnel is matched with the top opening of the integrated tea barrel, and the upper part is funnel-shaped.
[0012] The telescopic mechanism and the pressing head are bolt-connected through a telescopic connecting seat.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By providing a tea cake pressing device, through the arrangement of a tea steaming mechanism, a tea pressing mechanism and an integrated tea barrel, a single station simultaneously has multiple functions such as filling, steaming, and pressing. The tea cake pressing work is orderly integrated into one station. Workers only need to pour loose tea into the integrated steaming barrel, wait for a while to steam the loose tea soft, and then operate the tea pressing mechanism to press the tea cake, without the need to transfer the tea leaves between stations or pour the barrels. It is convenient and fast, with low loss of loose tea. It can not only reduce the labor to one person, but also effectively simplify the process of tea cake pressing, thereby effectively reducing the cost of tea cake pressing, and is suitable for popularization and application in the field of tea cake pressing devices.

Specific implementation mode
[0022] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, the present utility model provides a tea cake pressing device, which includes an operating table 1, an integrated tea barrel 2, a tea steaming mechanism and a tea pressing mechanism. Among them, a stepped hole 4 for passing steam is provided on the tabletop of the operating table 1, and the integrated tea barrel 2 is placed on the stepped hole 4 for holding loose tea to be steamed and providing a mold for pressing the steamed loose tea into a tea cake. The step of the stepped hole 4 is used to support the integrated tea barrel 2. In this embodiment, the upper end of the integrated tea barrel 2 is open, and ventilation small holes 5 are evenly distributed on the bottom surface. The tea steaming mechanism is arranged directly below the stepped hole 4 of the operating table 1. Steam is generated from the tea steaming mechanism, rises through the stepped hole 4, and then passes through the ventilation small holes 5 into the integrated tea barrel 2 to steam the tea leaves;
[0024] At the same time, as Figure 2 shown, the tea pressing mechanism in this embodiment includes a support slide rail 6, a telescopic mechanism 7 and a pressing head 8. The support slide rail 6 is erected on the operating table 1. The fixed end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is vertically arranged on the support slide rail 6 through a sliding seat 9 and has a degree of freedom to slide relative to the support slide rail 6. In this embodiment, the telescopic mechanism 7 is preferably a telescopic cylinder. The pressing head 8 is fixed to the top extension end of the telescopic mechanism 7 and vertically points to the operating table 1. There is a clearance fit between the side surface of the pressing head 8 and the inner wall of the integrated tea barrel 2. The pressing head 8 has a degree of freedom to slide to directly above the integrated tea barrel 2 at the stepped hole 4 and sink into the integrated tea barrel 2 on the stepped hole 4 under the drive of the sliding seat 9 and the telescopic mechanism 7;
[0025] In order to facilitate the removal of the pressed tea cake and prevent the tea leaves from sticking to the pressing head 8, in this embodiment, before filling, a steaming cloth bag or a spread-out steaming cloth is first placed in the integrated tea barrel 2. The outer edge of the steaming cloth bag or the steaming cloth extends out of the integrated tea barrel 2. Loose tea is filled into the steaming cloth bag or the steaming cloth in the integrated tea barrel 2. After the loose tea is steamed, the steaming cloth bag or the steaming cloth is gathered towards one side of the integrated tea barrel 2, and the pressing head 8 presses down to contact the steaming cloth bag or the steaming cloth to press the loose tea into a cake.
[0026] In addition, in order to limit the integrated tea barrel 2 and prevent it from sliding around on the operating table 1 and ensure the accuracy of the relative position between it and the tea pressing mechanism, as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 shown, a limiting cylinder 11 with a clearance fit with the outer diameter of the integrated tea barrel 2 is also fixed on the operating table 1 in this embodiment. Among them, the integrated tea barrel 2 is higher than the limiting cylinder 11, and the limiting cylinder 11 coincides with the axis of the stepped hole 4. When carrying out the tea cake pressing work, the integrated tea barrel 2 can be placed in the limiting cylinder 11. When the work is finished and the surface of the operating table 1 is cleaned, the integrated tea barrel 2 can be lifted out of the limiting cylinder 11 alone, and the stepped hole 4 of the operating table 1 can be thoroughly cleaned, and it is not easy to leave sanitary dead corners.
[0027] On the basis of the above settings, in order to facilitate the alignment of the pressing head 8 with the limiting cylinder 11 and the integrated tea barrel 2, the setting of the support slide rail 6 in this embodiment is as follows: when the sliding seat 9 slides to one end of the support slide rail 6, the axis of the pressing head 8 coincides with that of the limiting cylinder 11; when it slides to the other end of the support slide rail 6, the pressing head 8 is located outside the upper space of the limiting cylinder 11.
[0028] Furthermore, as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 shown, the tea steaming mechanism includes a steam barrel 3 and a heating device arranged in the steam barrel 3. Among them, the heating device is externally connected to a power supply, and a water injection port 10 is arranged on the upper side surface of the steam barrel 3, and an external water pipe is connected to the steam barrel 3 through the water injection port 10. In order to prevent steam from leaking from below the bottom surface of the operating table 1, the top surface of the steam barrel 3 is pressed against the bottom surface of the operating table 1 through a sealing gasket. At the same time, in order to ensure that steam can be continuously generated in the steam barrel 3, a visible liquid level window is arranged on the side surface of the steam barrel 3, which is convenient for the staff to observe the position of the water surface in the steam barrel 3 so as to inject water in time.
[0029] Furthermore, in order to prevent the integrated tea barrel 2 from being taken out of the limiting cylinder 11 due to the adhesion of the pressed tea cake to the pressing head 8 during the lifting process of the pressing head 8 after the tea cake is successfully pressed, an auxiliary pressing edge 12 extends outward from the top side surface of the integrated tea barrel 2, as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6As shown, when the press head 8 is lifted, the worker only needs to hold the auxiliary pressing edge 12.
[0030] Furthermore, in order to fill the loose tea materials into the integrated tea barrel 2, in this embodiment, it further includes a feeding funnel 13. Preferably, a step is formed at the upper end of the inner wall of the integrated tea barrel 2 for placing the feeding funnel 13. The lower part of the feeding funnel 13 is matched with the top opening of the integrated tea barrel 2, and the upper part is in a funnel shape. When it is necessary to fill the integrated tea barrel 2 with materials, the feeding funnel 13 can be placed at the upper end of the integrated tea barrel 2. After the filling is completed, the feeding funnel 13 is removed from the integrated tea barrel 2, and then the tea cake pressing is carried out.
[0031] In addition, as Figure 2 , Figure 4 shown, in order to facilitate the disassembly of the press head 8 to replace the press head 8 or reduce the weight of the sliding seat 9 after work, the telescopic mechanism 7 and the press head 8 in this embodiment are bolted through a telescopic connecting seat 14. The telescopic connecting seat 14 includes an upper part and a lower part. Among them, a connecting shaft extends from the middle of the top end of the press head 8. The lower part of the telescopic connecting seat 14 is fixed to the connecting shaft at the top end of the press head 8, and the upper part is fixed to the top extension end of the telescopic mechanism 7. The upper part and the lower part are bolted together.
[0032] It can be understood that the present utility model is described through some embodiments. Those skilled in the art know that without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, various changes or equivalent replacements can be made to these features and embodiments. Additionally, under the teaching of the present utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application belong to the scope protected by the present utility model.
