Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea production and processing technology, specifically to a tea drying device for tea production and processing. Background Technology
[0002] During the production of tea, the leaves need to be "killed green" (or "fixed green"). This process uses high temperatures to destroy and deactivate the oxidase activity in the fresh leaves, inhibiting the enzymatic oxidation of tea polyphenols and other substances. It also evaporates some of the moisture from the fresh leaves, making them softer and easier to roll and shape. At the same time, it removes the grassy smell and promotes the formation of a good aroma. After the high-temperature fixation, the tea leaves need to be cooled down.
[0003] Traditionally, the cooling process for tea leaves involves manually spreading the withered tea leaves in woven baskets or on the ground with mats between them for drying.
[0004] However, traditional tea spreading methods often result in uneven distribution, leading to uneven heat dissipation in certain areas and affecting the quality of the tea later on. To address these issues, a tea spreading and cooling device for tea production and processing is proposed. Utility Model Content

A connecting block 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide block 11, and a connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting block 12. The electric slide rail 10 can also drive the connecting block 12 and the connecting plate 13 to move horizontally, thereby driving the flipping assembly below the connecting plate 13 to move horizontally, enhancing practicality. Support plates 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the connecting plate 13, serving as a connection. A bidirectional threaded rod 15 is rotatably connected between the two support plates 14, and movable blocks 16 are threadedly connected to the outer rings of both sides of the bidirectional threaded rod 15. The bidirectional threaded rod 15 can drive the two movable blocks. The two moving blocks 16 move relative to each other or back to back. Each of the two moving blocks 16 is rotatably connected to a connecting frame 18 on one side. A lifting frame 19 is provided at the bottom of the bidirectional threaded rod 15. The lifting frame 19 is T-shaped. A rotating frame 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting frame 19. The rotating frame 21 serves as a connection. A flipping component is connected to the bottom of the lifting frame 19. A collection box 9 is provided at the end of the discharge trough plate 8. The collection box 9 is used to collect tea leaves and is located on the right side of the base 1. A second motor 17 is fixedly connected to the outside of the front support plate 14. The output end of the second motor 17 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 15. The second motor 17 can drive the bidirectional threaded rod 15 to rotate. The outside of the rotating frame 21 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 18. Guide columns 20 are fixedly connected to one side of each of the two support plates 14. The outside of the guide columns 20 is slidably connected to both sides of the lifting frame 19. The lifting frame 19 has slots on both sides (not shown in the figure). The lifting frame 19 can move up and down along the guide columns 20 through the slots on both sides.
[0031] Reference Figure 2The conveying assembly includes a support frame 2, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the base 1. Multiple rotating rods 3 are connected through and rotatably between the two support frames 2. A transmission cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rods 3. A conveyor belt 6 is installed outside the multiple transmission cylinders 4. The left side of the two support frames 2 is fixedly connected to the feed trough plate 7, and the right side of the two support frames 2 is fixedly connected to the discharge trough plate 8. The top of the rear support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the electric slide rail 10. A first motor 5 is fixedly connected to the front side of the support frame 2, and the output end of the first motor 5 is fixedly connected to the front end of the right rotating rod 3. The conveying assembly can automatically spread and convey the tea leaves, and can also collect the spread-out tea leaves through the rotating conveyor belt 6.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 The turning component includes a mounting frame 22, the top of which is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 19. A third motor 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting frame 22. The output end of the third motor 23 passes through the mounting frame 22 and is fixedly connected to a turning rod 24. Two turning plates 25 are fixedly connected to the outside of the turning rod 24. The turning component can turn the flat tea leaves by rotating the turning plates 25, so that the spreading and drying effect is better.
[0033] Working principle: During operation, the first motor 5 is started, driving the rotating rod 3 and the transmission cylinder 4 to rotate. Multiple transmission cylinders 4 work together to drive the conveyor belt 6 to rotate. Then, tea leaves are manually placed into the feed trough 7 from the top. Under their own weight, the tea leaves slide from the top to the bottom of the feed trough 7. At this time, the rotating conveyor belt 6 transfers the tea leaves onto it. When the tea leaves completely cover the upper surface of the conveyor belt 6, the power switch of the first motor 5 is turned off. Before turning the tea leaves, the second motor 17 is started, driving the bidirectional threaded rod 15 to rotate. The bidirectional threaded rod 15 drives two moving blocks 16 to move relative to each other or in opposite directions. This movement is achieved through the connecting frame 18 and the rotating frame 21. The lifting frame 19 is raised and lowered along the guide columns 20 on both sides, which in turn raises and lowers the flipping component below. The height of the flipping component is adjusted, and the third motor 23 is started to drive the flipping rod 24 and the flipping plate 25 to rotate. The rotating flipping plate 25 flips the tea leaves, improving the heat dissipation effect and the efficiency of tea leaf spreading. The electric slide rail 10 can also drive the connecting block 12 and the connecting plate 13 to move horizontally, thereby driving the flipping component below the connecting plate 13 to move horizontally, making it more practical. After spreading is completed, the first motor 5 is started again to drive the conveyor belt 6 to rotate, so that the tea leaves enter the collection box 9 through the discharge chute plate 8 for collection.
