Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to tea processing equipment technical field, specifically, relate to a kind of tea rolling equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Tea rolling is a very important step in tea processing, especially for oolong tea, black tea and other semi-fermentation or full-fermentation tea. The main purpose of rolling is to destroy the cell structure of tea leaves, allowing the enzymes inside the tea leaves to come into contact with air and promote the fermentation process. At the same time, it also helps to shape the appearance of tea leaves and affects the appearance and taste of the final product.

[0003] The "ridge bones" of a tea rolling machine refer to the internal structure used for rolling and twisting tea leaves. They are usually composed of a series of protrusions or strips and are designed in a specific shape and arrangement. These ridge bones play a crucial role in the rolling process, and different types of tea may require different rolling intensities and methods. For example, when processing delicate tea leaves, shallower and more spaced ridge bones may be chosen, while for older and thicker leaves, a deeper and more intensive arrangement may be used to better shape the tea leaves and promote cell damage. However, the current tea rolling equipment has ridge bones that are usually integrated with the rolling disc and do not have adjustable functions, resulting in the need for different tea rolling equipment for different tea types, increasing production costs. Therefore, we propose a tea rolling equipment. SUMMARY

[0004] The problem solved by the utility model is how to adjust the number and spacing of ridge bones in the rolling equipment according to different types of tea.

For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] In the description of the present application, the description of the terms "embodiment", "one embodiment" and "one embodiment" means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or embodiment are included in at least one embodiment or embodiment of the present application. In the present application, the illustrative description of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or embodiment. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or embodiments in a suitable manner.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 4As shown, the tea rubbing and twisting equipment provided by the embodiment of the utility model, including rubbing and twisting disc 200, rib bone assembly and drive assembly, rib bone assembly and drive assembly are all located below rubbing and twisting disc 200, the fixed rib bone 210 along the center of circle of its distribution is set in rubbing and twisting disc 200, it needs to be explained that, in the embodiment, the fixed rib bone 210 is provided with multiple, the rib bone groove 230 is arranged between adjacent fixed rib bones 210, the rib bone assembly includes connecting ring 310 and movable rib bone 300, movable rib bone 300 is evenly distributed along the center of circle of connecting ring 310, it needs to be explained that, the distribution of rib bone groove 230 and the distribution of movable rib bone 300 one to one correspond.Drive assembly is used to drive movable rib bone 300 of rib bone assembly to enter corresponding rib bone groove 230.

[0027] The tea rubbing and twisting equipment further includes a supporting and driving mechanism 100 and a barrel 120. The supporting and driving mechanism 100 is fixed to the periphery of the rubbing and twisting disc 200, and the barrel 120 is arranged above the rubbing and twisting disc 200. The supporting and driving mechanism 100 drives the barrel 120 to rotate through the connecting rod structure 110.

[0028] Generally, the tea to be rubbed and twisted is placed in the barrel 120. The barrel 120 is driven to make eccentric circular motion on the rubbing and twisting disc 200 by the supporting and driving mechanism 100 and the connecting rod structure 110. The rubbing and twisting of the tea is realized by the extrusion between the tea released below the supporting and driving mechanism 100 and the fixed rib bone 210 and the specific shape of the fixed rib bone 210.

[0029] By arranging multiple rib bone grooves 230 on the rubbing and twisting disc 200, and arranging the multiple rib bone grooves 230 between adjacent fixed rib bones 210, the movable rib bones 300 are corresponded. The connecting ring 310 is driven to move by the drive assembly, so that the movable rib bones 300 enter the corresponding rib bone grooves 230. In this way, the number of ribs inside the rubbing and twisting disc 200 is increased, and the number of ribs can be adjusted according to the different requirements of the rubbing and twisting tea.

[0030] Further, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the rib bone groove 230 is provided with a cover groove 240, and the cover 220 is arranged at the cover groove 240. When the cover 220 is arranged in the cover groove 240, the cover 220 is flush with the inner bottom surface of the rubbing and twisting disc 200. When only the fixed rib bone 210 is needed to complete the tea work, the cover 220 is arranged on the cover groove 240 to avoid the tea falling during the rubbing and twisting of the tea. The cover 220 is flush with the inner bottom surface of the rubbing and twisting disc 200 after installation, which avoids the influence of the uneven surface on the quality of the rubbing and twisting of the tea.

[0031] It should be noted that the cover 220 can be installed in the cover groove 240 by magnetic attraction, clamping or direct placement, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the cover 220.

[0032] Furthermore, the height of the movable prism 300 is greater than the height of the fixed prism 210; since the connecting ring 310 cannot directly enter the kneading disk 200, part of the movable prism 300 will remain in the prism groove 230. Therefore, in this embodiment, the height of the movable prism 300 is the sum of the thickness of the fixed prism 210 and the kneading disk 200, so that the movable prism 300 is at the same height after entering the kneading disk 200.

[0033] Specifically, when the movable prism 300 of the prism assembly is driven by the driving assembly into the corresponding prism groove 230 , the movable prism 300 and the fixed prism 210 are at the same height.

[0034] Since the movable ribs 300 and the fixed ribs 210 are at the same height, the influence of different rib heights on the tea rolling process is avoided.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the driving assembly includes a fixed plate 400, a screw 410 and a nut. The fixed plate 400 has at least one and is fixed to the circumferential side of the connecting ring 310. The nut is embedded in the surface of the fixed plate 400. The screw 410 is threadedly matched with the nut, and one end of the screw 410 is connected to the bottom surface of the kneading disk 200 through a bearing.

[0036] It should be noted that a handwheel is fixed to the other end of the screw 410 to facilitate driving the screw 410 to rotate. By turning the handwheel to rotate the screw 410, the fixed plate 400 is moved by cooperating with the nut, and then the connecting ring 310 and the movable rib 300 are moved to adjust the number of ribs in the kneading disk 200. It should be further noted that in some cases the driving assembly can be replaced by an electric push rod to achieve adjustment of the height of the rib assembly.

[0037] Furthermore, a guide rod 420 is fixed to the bottom of the kneading disk 200. The guide rod 420 is arranged parallel to the screw rod 410, and the guide rod 420 passes through the fixed plate 400. The guide rod 420 can make the prism assembly more stable when moving.

[0038] The kneading disc 200 has a discharge opening 250 in the middle, which is used to connect to the discharge assembly (not shown) of the kneading machine. Typically, the discharge assembly is an electric cover assembly that can control the opening and closing of the discharge opening 250 to allow the kneaded tea leaves to be discharged through the discharge opening 250.

[0039] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
