Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tea saccharification, and particularly relates to a tea saccharification system. Background Art

[0002] For certain types of tea, the sugar-making process needs to be carried out. The saccharification process of tea is an important link in the tea-making process, which involves the metabolic decomposition and saccharification reaction of sugars in tea, and finally forms the unique aroma and color of tea.

[0003] In the prior art for a tea saccharification system, after retrieval, the utility model patent with the Chinese patent publication number CN220300673U discloses a saccharification tank, as Figure 1 shown. It mainly includes a housing a, a saccharification tank body b is arranged inside the housing a, a ceramic heating pipe c is fitted and installed on the inner wall of the housing a, a feed pipe d is embedded and fixed on the top surface of the saccharification tank body b, a driving motor e is installed on the top end surface of the housing a, and a stirring rod f is welded on the output shaft of the driving motor e through a rotating shaft g. A filter screen h and a fixed pipe are welded on the inner wall of the saccharification tank body b. Installation frames n are welded at both ends of the outer surface of the housing a, and a base p is welded on the bottom end surface of the installation frame n.

[0004] In the prior art, for a saccharification system with a technical solution similar to the above, it is found that there are areas for improvement during actual implementation: there is no reflux pipe provided on the saccharification tank. Therefore, the saccharified liquid directly enters the boiling pot for boiling later. However, the initially flowing out saccharified liquid contains a certain amount of tea dregs, making the saccharified liquid entering the boiling pot not pure enough and affecting the taste of the subsequent saccharified liquid. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] In view of the deficiencies and defects existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a tea saccharification system, which solves the problem that in the existing saccharification pot system, there is no reflux pipe provided on the saccharification tank. Therefore, the saccharified liquid directly enters the boiling pot for boiling later. However, the initially flowing out saccharified liquid contains a certain amount of tea dregs, making the saccharified liquid entering the boiling pot not pure enough and affecting the taste of the subsequent tea drink.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present utility model adopts the following technical solutions: A tea saccharification system includes a saccharification pot and a boiling pot. At the bottom inside the saccharification pot, there is a stirring shaft. The lower end of the stirring shaft extends out of the saccharification pot and is connected to a motor. On the stirring shaft, there are stirring rods. At the upper ends of both the saccharification pot and the boiling pot, there are pot lids. The upper ends of the pot lids are connected to chimneys. On one side of each pot lid, there is a glass manhole door. On one side below the saccharification pot, there is a dregs outlet door. On one side in the upper part inside the saccharification pot, there is a reflux pipe. On one side at the bottom inside the saccharification pot, there is a liquid outlet pipe. The liquid outlet pipe is connected to the reflux pipe through a first connecting pipe. On one side in the upper part inside the boiling pot, there is a liquid inlet pipe. The liquid inlet pipe is connected to the first connecting pipe through a second connecting pipe. Below the boiling pot, there is a heating pipe. Inside both the boiling pot and the saccharification pot, there is a liquid level gauge. Outside the boiling pot, there is a heat preservation layer. The reflux pipe is close to the inner wall of the saccharification pot, and the pipe orifice of the reflux pipe faces the inner wall of the saccharification pot.

[0007] As a further improvement of the present utility model, support legs are provided at the bottoms of both the saccharification pot and the boiling pot.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present utility model, temperature detection pipes are provided on one side of the lower parts of both the saccharification pot and the boiling pot.

By providing a reflux pipe on one side in the upper part inside the saccharification pot and a liquid outlet pipe on one side at the bottom of the saccharification pot, the liquid outlet pipe is connected to the reflux pipe through a first connecting pipe, a liquid inlet pipe is provided on one side in the upper part inside the boiling pot, and the liquid inlet pipe is connected to the first connecting pipe through a second connecting pipe. After the tea in the saccharification pot is initially saccharified and a stable stratification is formed, the saccharified tea liquid first flows into the saccharification pot through the liquid outlet pipe, the first connecting pipe and the reflux pipe for further saccharification and stratification precipitation. After a certain period of time, when the outflowing saccharified tea is relatively clear, the reflux pipe is closed and the liquid inlet pipe on the boiling pot is opened, then the saccharified tea liquid enters the boiling pot through the liquid outlet pipe, the first connecting pipe, the second connecting pipe and the liquid inlet pipe for the boiling process to stop the reaction of the saccharifying enzyme, thereby improving the purity of the saccharified tea liquid and reducing the impurities in the saccharified tea liquid. In addition, by making the reflux pipe close to the inner wall of the saccharification pot and the pipe orifice of the reflux pipe face the inner wall of the saccharification pot, the saccharified liquid flowing out of the reflux pipe enters the saccharification pot near the side of the saccharification pot, reducing the disturbance of the refluxing saccharified liquid to the original saccharification stratification inside the saccharification pot and maintaining the stability of the saccharified liquid to ensure the purity of the outflowing saccharified tea liquid.

[0013] In addition, by providing a liquid level gauge in both the boiling pot and the saccharification pot, the liquid levels of the boiling pot and the saccharification pot can be detected, so as to master and judge the saccharification process.
