[0002] Existing tea cabinets include a cabinet body, cabinet doors, an inner liner, and an air duct, with the inner liner located inside the cabinet. An evaporator is installed within the air duct. The inner liner needs to maintain humidity and temperature. Tea cabinets come in various sizes, from large to small to tall, to suit different occasions and environments, and to meet different needs, such as small-scale or large-scale collections. In tall and narrow tea cabinets, due to the height of the cabinet and the long distance between the bottom and top, the airflow within the inner liner is not uniform, often resulting in uneven temperature and humidity in certain areas. Utility Model Content

[0020] Figure 2 This is a side cross-sectional view of the present invention.

[0021] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the inner surface of the air duct plate of this utility model.

[0022] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram showing the disassembled components of the air duct plate and air duct channel plate. Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

[0024] Example 1: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, a tea cabinet with uniform temperature and humidity air ducts at the top, middle, and bottom, like a conventional cabinet, includes a cabinet body 1, a cabinet door 2, and an inner liner 3. It also includes a first air duct 4 and a second air duct 5. The cabinet door 2 is hinged to the cabinet body 1, and the inner liner is located inside the cabinet. An evaporator 6 is installed in the first air duct 4. The air inlet 41 of the first air duct is located at the bottom of the inner liner, and the air outlet 42 of the first air duct is located at the top of the inner liner. The air inlet 41 and the air outlet 42 of the first air duct are connected to the inner liner. The air inlet 51 of the second air duct is located at the bottom of the inner liner, and the air outlet 52 of the second air duct is located in the middle of the inner liner. The air inlet 51 and the air outlet 52 of the second air duct are connected to the inner liner. A first blower is installed in the first air duct, and a second blower 53 is installed in the second air duct. The first air duct is located at the back of the inner liner, and the second air duct is located at the back of the inner liner.

[0025] In this example, the first air duct is composed of the air duct plate 7 located inside the inner liner and the corresponding inner wall on the back of the inner liner.

[0026] The air inlet 41 of the first air duct is located at the lower part of the air duct plate 7, and the air inlet 41 of the first air duct is composed of multiple small holes; the air outlet 42 of the first air duct is located at the upper part of the air duct plate 7, and the air outlet of the first air duct is composed of multiple small holes.

[0027] Working Principle: During operation, air from the bottom of the inner liner enters through the inlet of the first air duct and then through the outlet of the first air duct before entering the top of the inner liner. Air from the bottom of the inner liner is then blown into the second air duct by a blower, flows through the second air duct, and then exits through the outlet of the second air duct into the middle of the inner liner. This mixing of air in the middle of the inner liner results in a more uniform temperature and humidity. In a tall tea cabinet, this ensures more even temperature and humidity throughout the top, middle, and bottom sections, preventing potential problems with tea caused by uneven temperature during storage.

[0028] Example 2: The feature of this example is that the second air duct 5 is located inside the first air duct 4. This structure is compact and does not occupy other space inside the cabinet.

[0029] The second air duct consists of an air duct plate 7 and an air duct groove plate 8. This structure is simple and easy to install.

[0030] The second blower is mounted on the duct plate 7 via blower gasket 9. The blower gasket helps to reduce noise and vibration.

[0031] The air inlet 51 of the second air duct is located at the lower part of the air duct plate 7, and the air inlet of the second air duct consists of multiple small holes; the air outlet 52 of the second air duct is located at the middle part of the air duct plate 7, and the air outlet of the second air duct consists of multiple small holes. The rest is the same as in Embodiment 1.

[0032] Example 3: The feature of this example is that the upper end of the second air duct is connected to a horizontally placed branch air duct, and the air outlet 52 of the second air duct is located at the free end of the branch air duct. This can expand the ventilation position and range in the horizontal direction, and enhance the space's ability to maintain humidity and heat evenly.

[0033] The branch duct is composed of a transition groove plate 10 and a duct plate. This structure is simple and easy to install. The rest is the same as in Example 2.

[0034] Example 4: This example features two air outlets in the second air duct. There are also two branch air ducts, each consisting of a transition trough plate 10 and an air duct plate. The air outlet of the second air duct is located at the free end of the branch air duct. Of course, the number of branch air ducts can be set according to design requirements. The rest is the same as in Example 1 or Example 2.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
