[0002] The processing of broken black tea includes multiple steps. The process of complete processing of broken black tea is called CTC process. Cutting is an important step in the CTC process. The broken black tea leaves with larger leaves need to be cut into rack shape through the cutting process. The CTC cutting process usually uses a gear rolling cutter to cut large pieces of tea into rack shape.

[0003] However, when cutting large pieces of black tea leaves on traditional rolling cutters, the inevitable moisture in the leaves makes the cut tea sticky, making it easy for the leaves to adhere to the rollers, making cleaning difficult. Furthermore, during the cutting process, a large amount of tea leaves are often placed at the discharge port for processing. However, due to the large size of the tea leaves, the discharge port is prone to blockage, hindering the discharge process.

[0004] Therefore, a CTC rolling cutter for processing black broken tea is proposed. Utility Model Content
