Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea fermentation, specifically to a tea fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] Tea fermentation is an important step in the tea-making process. Especially for semi-fermented and fully fermented teas such as oolong tea and black tea, the quality of fermentation directly affects the aroma, taste and color of the final product.

[0003] Traditional tea fermentation methods rely heavily on the natural environment and human experience. To ensure the quality of tea fermentation, modern fermentation boxes are often used. These boxes allow for control of various parameters such as temperature, humidity, and ventilation, greatly improving the efficiency and quality of tea fermentation. However, these fermentation boxes have some shortcomings in practical use. They are generally stacked containers, with tea leaves placed in each container. The fermentation process is controlled by the box, but the tea leaves need to be manually placed in the containers and pushed into the box. After fermentation, each container is removed layer by layer to empty the tea leaves. The containers have a certain weight when filled with tea leaves, making this process of removing the containers and emptying the tea leaves cumbersome and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a tea fermentation device to improve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] The technical solution provided by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows: a tea fermentation device, including a fermentation box, a box door rotatably connected to the fermentation box, a holding frame rotatably connected inside the fermentation box, a baffle rotatably connected to the holding frame, and a spring connecting the baffle and the holding frame, the spring being used to drive the baffle to reset.

[0006] More preferably, the side wall of the holding frame is connected to a fixed rod, and a swing rod is rotatably connected between adjacent fixed rods.

[0007] More preferably, a trigger rod is connected to one of the fixed rods, and an arc-shaped track is provided on the side wall of the fermentation tank. The trigger rod slides within the arc-shaped track, and a locking block is slidably connected within the arc-shaped track to lock the trigger rod in place.

[0008] More preferably, an unlocking block is slidably connected to the bottom of the arc-shaped track, the unlocking block being used to press the locking block to release the locking position of the trigger rod.

[0009] More preferably, the card block is C-shaped, and the side of the card block closest to the unlocking block is a triangular bevel.

[0010] More preferably, a first spring connects the locking block to the fermentation box, and a second spring connects the unlocking block to the fermentation box.

[0011] More preferably, the fermentation tank has a feed inlet on the rear side, and a sealing plate is slidably connected to the rear side of the fermentation tank.

[0012] More preferably, both the holding frame and the baffle are provided with evenly distributed circular holes.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: this utility model uses a trigger rod and a locking block to flip the baffle in sequence when the holding frame is rotated to an inclined state, so that the tea leaves fall freely. In this way, there is no need to manually remove the holding frame to pour out the tea leaves, saving manpower. Attached Figure Description

As used in this specification of embodiments of the present invention and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0026] Specific embodiments of this utility model are shown in the appendix. Figure 1 -Attached Figure 4As shown, a tea fermentation device includes a fermentation box 1, a door 2 rotatably connected to the fermentation box 1, and four evenly distributed holding frames 3 rotatably connected inside the fermentation box 1. An elastic element connects the holding frames 3 to the fermentation box 1 to control the horizontal state of the holding frames 3 and facilitate their reset. A baffle 4 rotatably connects to the front of each holding frame 3, and a spring connects the baffle 4 to the holding frame 3. The spring drives the baffle 4 to rotate and reset. By flipping the baffle 4 forward, tea leaves fall from the front of the holding frames 3. Evenly distributed round holes are provided on both the holding frames 3 and the baffle 4. A fixing rod 5 is connected to the side wall of each holding frame 3, and a swing rod 6 rotatably connects adjacent fixing rods 5. Through the swing rod 6, the four holding frames 3 can rotate downwards synchronously.

[0027] One of the fixed rods 5 is connected to a trigger rod 7. An arc-shaped track 8 is provided on the side wall of the fermentation box 1. The trigger rod 7 slides in the arc-shaped track 8. A locking block 9 is slidably connected to the lower side of the arc-shaped track 8. The locking block 9 is used to lock the trigger rod 7. An unlocking block 10 is slidably connected to the bottom of the arc-shaped track 8. The unlocking block 10 is used to squeeze the locking block 9 to release the locking of the trigger rod 7. The locking block 9 is C-shaped, and the side of the locking block 9 near the unlocking block 10 is a triangular inclined block. A first spring 11 is connected between the locking block 9 and the fermentation box 1. A second spring 12 is connected between the unlocking block 10 and the fermentation box 1. A feed inlet 13 is provided on the rear side of the fermentation box 1. A sealing plate 14 is slidably connected to the rear side of the fermentation box 1.

[0028] The working principle is as follows: The operator slides the sealing plate 14 to pour the tea leaves into the holding frame 3 through the feed inlet 13. Then, the sealing plate 14 is closed to seal the fermentation box 1 and allow the tea leaves to ferment. After fermentation, the box door 2 is opened, and the holding frame 3 is manually swung downwards. This causes the holding frame 3 to move the fixing rod 5 and the trigger rod 7 downwards. The trigger rod 7 swings downwards and presses against the locking block 9 until the locking block 9 locks the trigger rod 7. At this point, the holding frame 3 is tilted downwards and locked. The operator can then flip the baffle 4 in sequence. This causes the tea leaves in the holding frame 3 to fall to the front of the fermentation box 1. The operator can then place a collection frame at the front to allow the fermented tea leaves to enter the collection frame. The baffle 4 is then released and reset by the action of the spring. The operator continues to lower the holding frame 3, causing it to move the trigger rod 7 downwards until it touches the unlocking block 10. This causes the unlocking block 10 to be pressed downwards, which in turn presses the locking block 9 inwards, releasing the locking of the trigger rod 7. At this point, the operator flips the holding frame 3 upwards to reset it.

[0029] The above description only illustrates the preferred embodiment of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the claims. This utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and variations in its specific structure are permitted. All changes made within the scope of the independent claims of this utility model are also within the scope of protection of this utility model.
