Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea frying, in particular to a tea frying device which is convenient for loading and unloading tea. Background Art

[0002] Tea frying is typically done using a tea frying machine. These machines come in a variety of sizes and models, including electric drum tea-withering machines, automatic temperature-controlled tea frying machines, and small stainless steel tea rolling machines. These machines are primarily used for the withering, rolling, and frying processes of tea leaves, enhancing their quality and flavor.

[0003] The existing tea frying machine usually has a rotating drum, in which tea leaves are placed and fried by electric heating. Although this frying method can achieve uniform heating of tea leaves, it has obvious inconveniences in the loading and unloading links.

[0004] Before frying tea, workers need to manually lift a large amount of tea leaves and feed them into the feed port of the tea frying machine. This process is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also prone to scattering of tea leaves due to improper operation, resulting in unnecessary waste. Similarly, similar problems exist in the discharge process after the tea frying is completed. Currently, most of the discharge relies on workers manually pulling the tea leaves out of the discharge port. This method is not only inefficient, but also makes it difficult to ensure that the tea leaves can be completely discharged, and often a large amount of tea leaves will remain in the rotating drum. This is a shortcoming of the existing technology. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The present invention is further described in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments:

[0021] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a tea frying device that facilitates loading and unloading includes a bracket 1, an outer cylinder 2 disposed on the bracket 1, a rotating cylinder 3 disposed within the outer cylinder 2, and the rotating cylinder 3 is driven to rotate by a driving mechanism. The rotating cylinder 3 is provided with a heating device. The driving mechanism of the utility model adopts an electric motor. The tea leaves 111 to be fried are placed in the rotating cylinder 3, and the motor drives the rotating cylinder 3 to rotate, so that the tea leaves are evenly turned during the frying process, ensuring that the tea leaves are evenly heated. The heating device provides the necessary frying temperature for the tea leaves.

[0022] In this utility model, the middle portion of the outer cylinder 2 is hinged to the bracket 1, the front end of the outer cylinder 2 is hinged to the lifting assembly 4, which is hinged to the bracket. A support assembly 5 is provided at the rear end of the outer cylinder 2. By adjusting the lifting assembly 4, the tilt angle of the outer cylinder 2 can be easily adjusted. When loading or unloading tea leaves, the front end of the outer cylinder 2 can be easily raised or lowered by the lifting assembly 4, allowing for easy addition or removal of tea leaves.

[0023] In order to better support and stabilize the outer cylinder 2, a support assembly 5 is further provided at the rear end of the outer cylinder 2. This support assembly 5 not only provides a stable support force for the outer cylinder 2, but also ensures that the rotating cylinder 3 can maintain stable rotation during the tea frying process.

[0024] Furthermore, the support 1 includes a bottom plate 11, on which two vertical plates 12 are vertically fixed. This structure provides a solid foundation for the entire tea-frying device, ensuring its stable operation. An angle plate 13 is fixed at the connection between the vertical plates and the bottom plate, enhancing the stability and durability of the support 1.

[0025] Furthermore, a large gear 7 and a small gear 6 are intermeshingly disposed between the outer cylinder 2 and the bracket 1. The small gear 6 is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft 9, which is rotatably connected to a vertical plate 12. The large gear 7 is fixedly connected to a second rotating shaft 8, one end of which is rotatably connected to the vertical plate, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to the outer cylinder 2. This gear transmission design not only ensures the smooth tilting and rotation of the outer cylinder 2, but also greatly enhances the durability of the device.

[0026] Specifically, the lifting assembly 4 includes a pneumatic cylinder 41 and a support ring 42. The cylinder body of the pneumatic cylinder 41 is hinged to the bottom plate, and the piston rod of the pneumatic cylinder 41 is hinged to the support ring 42. The inclination angle of the outer cylinder 2 can be easily adjusted by controlling the pneumatic cylinder 41. When loading, the outlet end of the outer cylinder 2 is controlled to tilt downward, and then the material is fed into the rotating cylinder 3. The outer cylinder 2 is then kept horizontal by controlling the pneumatic cylinder 41 to start frying the tea. After frying the tea, the outlet end of the outer cylinder 2 is controlled to tilt downward again, so that the tea leaves flow outward to a fixed position under the action of gravity, and the entire tea frying process is completed. This operation method greatly simplifies the process of loading and unloading tea, simplifies the manual operation process, and improves the efficiency of loading and unloading.

[0027] Furthermore, an ear plate 43 is provided at the lower end of the support ring 42 , and a screw 45 is fixed on the ear plate 43 . The screw passes through the connecting hole of the piston rod of the pneumatic cylinder 41 and is positioned by a bolt 44 .

[0028] Furthermore, the support assembly 5 includes a support plate 52, which is fixed on the bottom plate below the outer cylinder 2. A support plate 51 is fixed on the upper part of the support plate 52. The upper surface of the support plate 51 is provided with an arc groove, and the arc groove matches the shape of the outer cylinder 2; when the outer cylinder 2 is in a horizontal state, the outer cylinder 2 can be firmly rested in the arc groove, thereby ensuring stability during the tea frying process.

[0029] Furthermore, to ensure complete discharge of the tea leaves from the rotating drum 3, the present invention incorporates an air jet disc 101 at the rear end of the rotating drum 3. This disc is equipped with multiple air jet holes 103. The air inlet of the disc 101 communicates with an air inlet pipe 102, which in turn is connected to an external air source. After the tea is roasted, these air jet holes 103 emit a suitable amount of airflow, allowing any tea leaves remaining on the inner wall of the rotating drum to move downward to the outlet, completing normal discharge.

[0030] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Such changes and improvements are intended to fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed in the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
