[0022] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the drying mechanism includes a fan 8, an insulation shell 9, a heating element 10 and an air distribution pipe 11. The fan 8 and the insulation shell 9 are fixedly installed on one side of the processing box 1. The air inlet end of the insulation shell 9 is fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the fan 8. The heating element 10 is fixedly installed in the insulation shell 9. The air inlet end of the air distribution pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the insulation shell 9. The air outlet end of the air distribution pipe 11 extends into the drying box 7.

[0023] In this embodiment, the fan 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the processing box 1. As the power source of the drying mechanism, it is responsible for sucking in and pushing air into the insulation shell 9. The insulation shell 9 is also fixedly installed on one side of the processing box 1. The air inlet end is fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the fan 8. It serves as a protective shell for the heating element 10 and also plays a role in heat preservation, ensuring that the hot air can maintain a high temperature when passing through the insulation shell 9. The air inlet end of the air distribution pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the insulation shell 9, and the air outlet end extends into the drying box 7. As a transmission channel for hot air, the heated air in the insulation shell 9 is evenly blown into the drying box 7 to dry the desiccant, ensuring that the hot air is evenly distributed in the drying box 7, avoiding local overheating or uneven drying of the desiccant, thereby improving the drying effect and reusability of the desiccant.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a stirring motor 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the processing box 1, and a stirring rod 13 is rotatably installed on the drying box 7.

The outlet pipe of the exhaust duct 18 is fixedly connected to the equipment used for tea fermentation, ensuring that the treated dry air in the processing box 1 can directly and effectively enter the tea fermentation equipment. The dehumidified dry air in the processing box 1 is sent into the tea fermentation equipment through the exhaust duct 18, which helps to keep the humidity of the tea fermentation environment within an appropriate range. A stable humidity environment is crucial to the fermentation process of tea and can ensure the quality and effect of tea fermentation.

The adsorption plate 20 is provided in the mounting box 19. The adsorption plate 20 is used to adsorb tiny particles, odors and harmful substances in the air, such as grease, smoke, etc., so as to further purify the air discharged from the processing box 1. Through the adsorption effect of the adsorption plate 20, it can be ensured that the air sent to the tea fermentation equipment is cleaner, the impact of impurities on the tea fermentation process is reduced, and the quality of the tea is improved. The filter screen 21 is also provided in the mounting box 19. The filter screen 21 is used to intercept larger particles and impurities in the air, such as dust, debris, etc., to protect the adsorption plate 20 and subsequent tea fermentation equipment from damage.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an exhaust port is provided at the exhaust end of the mounting frame 2 , a dustproof net is provided on the exhaust port, and both the dehumidification pipe 5 and the exhaust pipe 18 are provided with a check valve.

[0033] In this embodiment, an exhaust port is provided at the exhaust end of the mounting frame 2 for discharging the treated air. A dustproof net is provided on the exhaust port to prevent external dust, impurities, etc. from entering the exhaust fan 3 and keep the interior of the device clean. The dehumidification pipe 5 is used to extract the humid air in the treatment box 1, and the exhaust pipe 18 sends the treated dry air into the tea fermentation equipment. Both pipes are provided with check valves to ensure that air backflow does not occur during the exhaust and dehumidification process, which can not only protect the treatment box 1 and the tea fermentation equipment from damage, but also ensure the stability and safety of the system.
