Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing technology, specifically to a tea processing fixation machine. Background Technology

[0002] Tea leaves, commonly known as tea, generally include the leaves and buds of the tea plant. Other names include cha, jia, ming, and chuan. Tea contains catechins, cholesterol, caffeine, inositol, folic acid, and pantothenic acid, all of which are beneficial to health.

[0003] The "killing" of tea involves using high temperatures to destroy and deactivate the oxidase activity in fresh tea leaves, inhibiting the enzymatic oxidation of tea polyphenols and other substances, and stopping fermentation. Killing tea requires a killing machine. However, most tea leaves are dried before being killed, so they contain dust and small impurities. Directly killing these leaves can easily damage the killing machine and affect the killing effect. Furthermore, directly discharging the tea leaves after killing can clog the elevator. Therefore, we have developed a killing machine for tea processing. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Please see Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a tea processing fixation machine, including a support mechanism 1, a fixation mechanism 2 for fixing tea leaves fixedly installed on the top of the support mechanism 1, a drive mechanism 3 for driving the fixation mechanism 2 to rotate fixedly installed on the support mechanism 1, a feeding mechanism 4 for screening out small particles of impurities in the tea leaves fixedly installed on one side of the support mechanism 1 and corresponding to the inlet of the fixation mechanism 2, and a discharging mechanism 5 for slowly lowering the tea leaves fixedly installed on the other side of the support mechanism 1 and corresponding to the outlet of the fixation mechanism 2.

[0017] The tea leaves are subjected to a fixing process by the fixing mechanism 2, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the fixing mechanism 2 to rotate along the support mechanism 1, so that the tea leaves inside the fixing mechanism 2 can be fully fixed. The feeding mechanism 4 can quickly remove small particles, impurities, and dust from the tea leaves that need to be fixed. The unloading mechanism 5 can slowly unload the processed tea leaves, thus preventing the tea leaves from accumulating after fixing.

[0018] Please see Figure 1 The support mechanism 1 includes a base plate 6, a support plate 7, and a heating cylinder 8. Multiple sets of support plates 7 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 6, and the heating cylinder 8 is fixedly installed on the support plate 7. The blanching mechanism 2 includes a blanching cylinder 9, a feeding cylinder 10, and a discharging cylinder 11. The blanching cylinder 9 is rotatably installed inside the heating cylinder 8. The feeding cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the blanching cylinder 9, and the discharging cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the other side of the blanching cylinder 9.

[0019] The feeding cylinder 10 can transport the tea leaves that need to be fixed into the fixing cylinder 9, while the bottom plate 6 and the support plate 7 can support the heating cylinder 8 and the fixing cylinder 9. The heating cylinder 8 can then heat and fix the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The driving mechanism 3 includes a limiting ring 12, a first support frame 13, a first sprocket 16, a first motor 17, a second sprocket 18, and a transmission chain 19. The limiting ring 12 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the blanching cylinder 9 and between the heating cylinder 8 and the discharge cylinder 11. The first support frame 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the heating cylinder 8. Two sets of mounting seats 14 are fixedly installed on the top of the first support frame 13. A limiting wheel 15 that engages with the limiting ring 12 is rotatably installed on the mounting seat 14. The first sprocket 16 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the blanching cylinder 9 and between the heating cylinder 8 and the feed cylinder 10. The first motor 17 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 6. The output end of the first motor 17 is fixedly connected to the second sprocket 18. The outer surfaces of the first sprocket 16 and the second sprocket 18 are connected by the transmission chain 19.

[0021] The fixing cylinder 9 is equipped with multiple sets of guide plates. When the tea leaves are fed into the fixing cylinder 9, the first motor 17 is started. The first motor 17 can use the second sprocket 18 and the transmission chain 19 to drive the first sprocket 16 and the fixing cylinder 9 to rotate along the limit wheel 15, so that the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9 can be evenly fixed.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feeding mechanism 4 includes a fixed plate 20, a slide rail 21, a slider 22, a first hinge seat 23, and a screen 24. The fixed plate 20 is configured in two sets and fixedly installed on the heating cylinder 8. The slide rail 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed plate 20. The slider 22 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the slide rail 21. The top of the slider 22 is hinged to the screen 24 through the first hinge seat 23. The bottom of the screen 24 is fixedly connected to a limiting sleeve 25. The inside of the limiting sleeve 25 is rotatably connected to a support roller 26. The outer wall of the support roller 26 is in contact with the top of the slide rail 21.

[0023] When feeding tea leaves, the tea leaves are first placed on top of the screen 24, and then the screen 24 is pushed. At this time, the screen 24 can make the slider 22 move left and right along the slide rail 21. This can fully remove tea impurities and dust from the screen 24. After the tea leaves are removed, the screen 24 is pushed to rotate along the first hinge seat 23. This allows the tea leaves inside the screen 24 to be pushed into the fixing cylinder 9 through the feed cylinder 10. The limiting sleeve 25 and the support roller 26 can support and limit the other end of the screen 24.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feeding mechanism 5 includes a second hinge seat 27, a feeding frame 28, a second support frame 29, a second motor 30, and a cam 31. The feeding frame 28 is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate 7 and below the discharge cylinder 11 via the second hinge seat 27. The second support frame 29 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 6. The second motor 30 is fixedly installed on the second support frame 29. An elliptical cam 31 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 30. The outer surface of the cam 31 is in contact with the bottom of the feeding frame 28.

[0025] When the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9 are fixed and discharged through the discharge cylinder 11, they first fall above the feeding frame 28. Then the second motor 30 is started. The second motor 30 can drive the elliptical cam 31 to rotate continuously. At this time, the feeding frame 28 can rotate continuously along the second hinge seat 27, so that the tea leaves above the feeding frame 28 can fall slowly.

[0026] In use, the tea leaves are first subjected to a fixing process by the fixing mechanism 2. The drive mechanism 3 rotates the fixing mechanism 2 along the support mechanism 1, ensuring thorough fixing of the tea leaves inside. The feeding mechanism 4 quickly removes small particles, impurities, and dust from the tea leaves. The unloading mechanism 5 slowly discharges the processed tea leaves, preventing accumulation. The feeding cylinder 10 transports the tea leaves to the fixing cylinder 9. The base plate 6 and support plate 7 support the heating cylinder 8 and the fixing cylinder 9. The heating cylinder 8 heats and fixes the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9. The fixing cylinder 9 contains multiple guide plates. After the tea leaves are fed into the fixing cylinder 9, the first motor 17 is activated. The first motor 17 uses the second sprocket 18 and the transmission chain 19 to drive the first sprocket 16 and the fixing cylinder 9 to rotate along the limit wheel 15. This ensures that the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9 are evenly fixinged. When feeding the tea leaves, first place the tea leaves above the screen 24, then push the screen 24. At this time, the screen 24 will cause the slider 22 to move left and right along the slide rail 21, which can fully remove impurities and dust from the tea leaves above the screen 24. After the tea leaves are sieved, push the screen 24 again, and the screen 24 will rotate along the first hinge seat 23, allowing the tea leaves inside the screen 24 to pass through the feed cylinder 10. The tea leaves are pushed into the fixing cylinder 9, and the limiting sleeve 25 and support roller 26 can support and limit the other end of the screen 24. When the tea leaves inside the fixing cylinder 9 are fixed and discharged through the discharge cylinder 11, they will first fall above the feeding frame 28. Then the second motor 30 is started. The second motor 30 can drive the elliptical cam 31 to rotate continuously. At this time, the feeding frame 28 can rotate continuously along the second hinge seat 27, so that the tea leaves above the feeding frame 28 can fall slowly.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
