Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of tea production equipment, and in particular to a flat tea leaf shaping device. Background Technology

[0002] Shaping is the process of shaping strip-shaped green tea. The methods vary slightly depending on the type of tea, but mainly include two techniques: grasping and tossing the strips. The purpose is to shape the tea, remove moisture, reveal the fine hairs, and enhance the aroma. Shaping aims to increase the quality and commercial value of the tea, while also aiding in its preservation and transportation. After shaping, the tea better retains its fresh aroma and color, and it also promotes fermentation and quality stability.

[0003] Existing flat tea shaping devices require manual placement of the tea leaves into multiple strip-shaped grooves before the device is moved laterally back and forth to shape the tea. However, this manual placement results in uneven distribution of the tea leaves within the grooves, affecting the shaping effect and consequently the quality of the tea in the same batch. Therefore, a flat tea shaping device is urgently needed to address this issue. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flat tea-stripping device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flat tea strip shaping device, including a base plate for mounting the flat tea strip shaping device and a sliding plate for flat tea strip shaping. The top surface of the sliding plate is provided with a plurality of strip grooves for flat tea strip shaping. A uniform distribution cylinder is fixedly connected to the top surface of the sliding plate. The interior of the uniform distribution cylinder is provided with rectangular holes corresponding to the strip grooves for uniformly distributing the flat tea. A guide block is fixedly connected to the top surface between two adjacent rectangular holes.

[0006] The side wall of the equalizing cylinder has a strip-shaped hole that communicates with multiple rectangular holes. A strip plate is slidably connected inside the strip-shaped hole. Multiple baffle plates are fixedly connected to one side of the strip plate that extends slidably into the inside of the strip-shaped hole, and the multiple baffle plates extend into the inside of the multiple rectangular holes respectively.

[0007] A horizontal plate is symmetrically fixedly connected to one end of the strip plate extending to the outside of the strip hole, and a tension spring is fixedly connected between the horizontal plate and the side wall of the equalizing cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, extrusion rods are slidably mounted inside the plurality of said strip grooves.

[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the strip groove is symmetrically provided with arc-shaped grooves, and the connecting shafts at both ends of the extrusion rod are slidably connected to the interior of the arc-shaped grooves.

[0010] Preferably, the inner wall of the strip groove is provided with a vertical groove, and the vertical groove is connected to the arc-shaped groove.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the equalizing cylinder, and a through hole is provided through the side wall of the horizontal plate.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting rods fixedly connected to the side wall of the equal distribution cylinder slide through the through holes opened in the side wall of the horizontal plate.

[0013] Preferably, rectangular sealing strips are fixedly bonded to the sidewalls of the plurality of barrier plates, and the outer wall of the rectangular sealing strip slides against the inner wall of the plurality of rectangular holes.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This flat tea-stripping device benefits from the arrangement of a distributing cylinder, rectangular holes, strip plates, and barrier plates. The barrier plates slide into the interior of multiple rectangular holes, allowing the tea leaves to be stripped to be placed inside the distributing cylinder, filling each rectangular hole and ensuring the top surface of the tea leaves is evenly spread. Then, pulling the strip plates moves the multiple barrier plates outward from the rectangular holes, opening them and allowing the tea leaves inside to fall into their corresponding strip grooves. Since the rectangular holes in the distributing cylinder have the same volume, the top surface of the tea leaves is evenly spread, ensuring that the amount of tea leaves falling through the rectangular holes into the multiple strip grooves is the same, thus improving the uniformity of tea stripping in the same batch.

[0016] This flat tea shaping device benefits from the setting of the extrusion rod. By rolling the extrusion rod into the inside of each strip groove, the extrusion rod rolls in the strip groove while the sliding plate and strip groove move laterally back and forth to shape the tea leaves. This allows the extrusion rod to shape the flat tea and improve the flatness effect.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, this flat tea strip shaping device can effectively distribute the flat tea strips to be shaped evenly inside each strip groove, thereby further improving the uniformity of tea strip shaping in the same batch and improving the flattening effect.

[0027] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0028] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0029] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 6The main structure of the flat tea strip shaping device shown is a base plate 1 for mounting the flat tea strip shaping device and a sliding plate 2 for flat tea strip shaping. A turntable 3 is rotatably mounted on the top surface of the base plate 1. A fixed column 4 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the turntable 3. A connecting rod 5 is rotatably sleeved on the rod wall of the fixed column 4. The end of the connecting rod 5 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the sliding plate 2. By driving the turntable 3 to rotate, the fixed column 4 drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate and pull the sliding plate 2 to move. The continuous rotation of the turntable 3 will drive the sliding plate 2 to move laterally back and forth.

[0031] Two sliders 6 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 2. Two grooves are symmetrically opened on the top surface of the base plate 1. The two sliders 6 at the bottom of the sliding plate 2 are slidably connected to the inside of the two grooves respectively. Thanks to the setting of the sliders 6, the sliding direction of the sliding plate 2 can be limited, and the stability of the sliding plate 2 during sliding can be further improved.

[0032] The top surface of the sliding plate 2 is provided with multiple strip grooves 7. The top surface of the sliding plate 2 is fixedly connected with a distribution cylinder 8. The interior of the distribution cylinder 8 is provided with rectangular holes 9 corresponding to the strip grooves 7. A guide block is fixedly connected to the top surface between two adjacent rectangular holes 9. The volume of the multiple rectangular holes 9 is the same. At the same time, the guide block is arc-shaped to prevent tea leaves from getting stuck between two rectangular holes 9.

[0033] The side wall of the equalizing cylinder 8 has a strip-shaped hole 10 that communicates with multiple rectangular holes 9. A strip-shaped plate 11 is slidably connected inside the strip-shaped hole 10. Multiple baffle plates 12 are fixedly connected to one side of the strip-shaped plate 11 inside the strip-shaped hole 10, and the multiple baffle plates 12 extend into the interior of the multiple rectangular holes 9 respectively. Thanks to the arrangement of the equalizing cylinder 8, the rectangular holes 9, and the strip-shaped plate 11 and baffle plates 12, the baffle plates 12 can be slidably inserted into the interior of the multiple rectangular holes 9. At this time, the tea leaves to be processed can be placed inside the equalizing cylinder 8 first and filled with water. The rectangular holes 9 are filled to the top surface of the tea leaves, and the top surface of the tea leaves is evenly spread. Then, the strip plate 11 is pulled to move multiple baffle plates 12 to the outside of the rectangular holes 9, thereby opening the rectangular holes 9 and allowing the tea leaves in the rectangular holes 9 to fall into the corresponding strip grooves 7. Since the rectangular holes 9 in the equalizing cylinder 8 have the same volume, the top surface of the tea leaves in the equalizing cylinder 8 is evenly spread. At this time, the amount of tea leaves falling into multiple strip grooves 7 through the rectangular holes 9 can be the same, thereby improving the uniformity of the tea leaf strips in the same batch.

[0034] A horizontal plate 13 is symmetrically fixedly connected to one end of the strip plate 11 extending to the outside of the strip hole 10. A tension spring 14 is fixedly connected between the horizontal plate 13 and the side wall of the equalizing cylinder 8. Thanks to the setting of the horizontal plate 13 and the tension spring 14, after pulling the strip plate 11 to drive the barrier plate 12 to open the rectangular hole 9 and allow the tea leaves to fall into the strip groove 7, the strip plate 11 can be released and the tension spring 14 can be used to pull the strip plate 11 to move and drive multiple barrier plates 12 to re-insert and seal into the interior of the rectangular hole 9.

[0035] Extrusion rods 16 are slidably installed inside multiple strip grooves 7. Arc-shaped grooves 17 are symmetrically opened on the inner wall of the strip grooves 7, and the connecting shafts at both ends of the extrusion rods 16 are slidably connected to the inside of the arc-shaped grooves 17. Vertical grooves are opened on the inner wall of the strip grooves 7, and the vertical grooves are connected to the arc-shaped grooves 17. Thanks to the setting of the extrusion rods 16, by rolling the extrusion rods 16 into the inside of each strip groove 7, the extrusion rods 16 are rolled in the strip grooves 7 while the sliding plate 2 and the strip grooves 7 move laterally back and forth to shape the tea leaves. This allows the extrusion rods 16 to shape the flat tea leaves and improve the flatness effect.

[0036] Limiting rods 15 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the equal distribution cylinder 8. A through hole is opened through the side wall of the horizontal plate 13. The limiting rods 15 fixedly connected to the side wall of the equal distribution cylinder 8 slide through the through hole opened in the side wall of the horizontal plate 13. Thanks to the setting of the limiting rods 15, the sliding direction of the strip plate 11 and the horizontal plate 13 can be effectively limited.

[0037] Rectangular sealing strips are fixedly bonded to the side walls of multiple barrier plates 12, and the outer wall of the rectangular sealing strip slides against the inner wall of multiple rectangular holes 9. The rectangular sealing strips can form a seal between the barrier plate 12 and the inner wall of the rectangular hole 9.

[0038] Working principle

[0039] In use, the flat tea-stripping device first places the tea leaves to be stripped inside the equalizing cylinder 8 and evenly spreads the top layer of tea leaves. Then, the strip plate 11 is pulled, causing the barrier plate 12, which is fixedly connected to it, to move into the strip hole 10 and open the rectangular hole 9. This allows the tea leaves inside the rectangular hole 9 to fall into the strip groove 7 corresponding to the rectangular hole 9, making the tea leaves in each strip groove 7 more uniform. This ensures that the amount of tea leaves falling into multiple strip grooves 7 through the rectangular hole 9 is the same, thereby improving the uniformity of tea stripping in the same batch. At the same time, thanks to the setting of the extrusion rod 16, by rolling the extrusion rod 16 into the inside of each strip groove 7, as the sliding plate 2 and the strip groove 7 move laterally back and forth to strip the tea leaves, the extrusion rod 16 is driven to roll in the strip groove 7, thereby shaping the flat tea leaves and improving the flatness effect.
