Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea drying, in particular to an automatic tea drying room. Background Art
[0002] A tea drying room is a crucial piece of equipment in the tea processing process. It is primarily used to remove moisture from tea leaves while preserving their natural aroma and nutrients. The tea drying room operates on the principle of thermal cycling, which evaporates the moisture from the tea leaves by subjecting them to certain temperature and humidity conditions. Simultaneously, the high-temperature airflow accelerates air flow, further promoting the evaporation process and ultimately drying the tea leaves.
[0003] During the use of the tea drying room, a bracket will be placed in the drying room, and the tea leaves will be placed on the bracket through a tray for drying. During use, the bracket is mostly placed directly inside the drying room. Since the bracket and the tea leaves on the tray are in a relatively fixed position, and the natural flow characteristics of the hot air in the drying room, some areas (especially around the bracket or the tea leaves on the bottom) may not receive enough hot air circulation, thus forming a drying blind area. This phenomenon not only affects the overall drying uniformity of the tea leaves, but may also cause some tea leaves to not evaporate completely, affecting the final quality. In view of this, we propose an automated tea drying room. Utility Model Content

The limit assemblies include a connecting frame 34 fixedly connected to the bearing plate 30, and the outer wall of the connecting frame 34 is provided with a slide groove 341 near both ends, and a connecting groove 340 is provided between the two slide grooves 341; a double-headed screw rod 36 is rotatably installed in the connecting groove 340, and the two ends of the double-headed screw rod 36 are inserted into the slide groove 341; a slide 37 is slidably installed in the slide groove 341, and the end of the double-headed screw rod 36 is threadedly connected to the slide 37; the two opposite ends of the two slides 37 are fixed with a fixing rod 38, which passes through the connecting frame 34 and is plugged into the first socket 170 and the second socket 240. The supporting plate 30 is detachably connected to the side plate 17 and the mounting bracket 24 via a limiting assembly.
[0031] In this embodiment, mounting plates 32 are fixed at the four corners of the bottom supporting plate 30, and universal wheels 33 are installed at the bottom of the mounting plates 32. The provision of the universal wheels 33 facilitates the movement of the supporting portion 3 and improves the convenience of the supporting portion 3.
[0032] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 23 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 24 by bolts, and the cross-section of the mounting frame 24 is U-shaped.

[0037] It should be added that the top of the turntable 16 in this embodiment is flush with the bottom of the drying chamber 10. This design can prevent the turntable 16 from protruding, thereby making it more convenient to connect and fix the connecting frame 34 and the side panel 17, and at the same time prevent the protruding turntable 16 from affecting the movement of the supporting part 3.
[0038] It is worth noting that the motor 25 and the dryer 14 involved in this embodiment are conventional technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0039] Before use, the user first pushes the carrying part 3 to move into the drying chamber 10, and then pushes the carrying part 3 so that the connecting frames 34 on the upper and lower sides move to between the opening of the mounting frame 24 and the two side plates 17 respectively. Then the user rotates the adjusting roller 35, and the adjusting roller 35 drives the double-headed screw rod 36 to rotate. As the double-headed screw rod 36 rotates, the slides 37 on both sides move synchronously relative to the sides, and the slides 37 simultaneously drive the fixing rods 38 to move to both sides. The ends of the fixing rods 38 are respectively inserted into the first sockets 170 and the second sockets 240, so that the carrying plate 30 is fixed to the mounting frame 24 and the side plates 17, and the carrying part 3 is fixed. Finally, the user repeats the above steps and fixes multiple carrying parts 3;
[0040] During specific use, the user first turns on the power of the motor 25 and the dryer 14, and the motor 25 and the dryer 14 start working. The output shaft of the motor 25 rotates to drive the transmission rod 20 and multiple worm gears 21 to rotate. Since the worm gear 21 is engaged with the worm gear 22, the multiple worm gears 22 rotate synchronously and drive the rotating shaft 23 and the mounting bracket 24 to rotate. The mounting bracket 24 synchronously drives the bearing part 3 to rotate. At the same time, the dryer 14 blows hot air into the drying chamber 10 through the air duct 15. At this time, the tea leaves are gradually dried under the action of heat.
