[0002] Tea, commonly known as tea, generally includes the leaves and buds of the tea plant. It is also called jia, ming, and chuan. The origin of the tea plant can be traced back tens of millions of years. During the Paleolithic period, early humans may have harvested tea leaves for food. In the Neolithic period, the health and medicinal properties of tea were discovered. More than 6,000 years ago, early inhabitants in the Tianluoshan area of ​​Yuyao, Zhejiang, began cultivating tea trees. During the Zhou Dynasty, tea gradually transformed into a beverage; in the late Spring and Autumn Period, it was used as a vegetable; during the Qin and Han Dynasties, tea cultivation and drinking spread from Sichuan to other regions; in the mid-Western Han Dynasty, it developed for medicinal purposes; and by the late Western Han Dynasty, it had become a high-class beverage in the imperial court. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was discovered that drinking tea had intellectual benefits. From the Three Kingdoms period to the Tang Dynasty, tea gradually became popular among the common people, and Tang Dynasty tea-making techniques were introduced to Japan. During the Song and Ming Dynasties, the "diancha" (whisking tea) method, which combined tea drinking with aesthetic appreciation, became popular; in the Ming Dynasty, the "baocha" (brewing tea) method became popular, and tea varieties also developed significantly. During the Qing Dynasty, white tea and oolong tea were created. Tea leaves are processed through fermentation, rolling, and drying, resulting in a bright red color and a mellow taste.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a tea processing kneading mechanism, including a support 1 and a shaking mechanism 2;

[0024] Support 1: Slide rails 3 are provided at both the front and rear ends of its upper side. A movable kneading chamber 5 is provided between the two slide rails 3. Slider blocks 4 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the kneading chamber 5. Slide grooves are provided on the opposite inner sides of the two slide rails 3. The sliders 4 are slidably connected to the adjacent front and rear slide grooves. A kneading block 7 is rotatably connected to the front side of the rear slide rail 3. The kneading block 7 is rotatably connected to the front side of the rear slide rail 3 via a rotating shaft 6. The lower end of the kneading block 7 extends into the interior of the kneading chamber 5. It also includes a control switch assembly 9, which is located on the front side of the front slide rail 3. The input end of the control switch group 9 is electrically connected to an external power source. It also includes a motor 8, which is mounted on the rear side of the slide rail 3. The output shaft of the motor 8 is fixedly connected to the center of the rear side of the rotating shaft 6. The input end of the motor 8 is electrically connected to the output end of the control switch group 9. The worker puts the tea leaves to be kneaded into the kneading chamber 5. Then the worker operates the control switch group 9 to make the motor 8 run. The output shaft of the motor 8 starts to drive the kneading block 7 to rotate forward and backward through the rotating shaft 6. At this time, the kneading block 7 cooperates with the bottom wall of the kneading chamber 5 to start kneading the tea leaves, which facilitates the kneading of the tea leaves.

[0025] Shaking mechanism 2: It includes a cam 21 and a shaking plate 22. The cam 21 is rotatably connected to the left end of the front side of the rear slide rail 3. The shaking plate 22 is provided on the left side of the lower outer arc surface of the kneading chamber 5. The cam 21 and the shaking plate 22 are fitted together. The shaking mechanism 2 also includes a motor 23. The motor 23 is installed on the rear side of the rear slide rail 3. The cam 21 and the rear slide rail 3 are rotatably connected through a rotating shaft. The output shaft of the motor 23 is fixedly connected to the center of the rear side of the rotating shaft. The input terminal is electrically connected to the output terminal of the control switch group 9. The shaking mechanism 2 also includes a guide slide column 24 and a spring 25. The right side of the slider 4 is provided with a guide slide column 24, and the right side wall of the slide rail 3 is provided with a sliding hole 10. The right end of the guide slide column 24 is slidably connected to the adjacent sliding hole 10 on the right side. A spring 25 is provided between the right side of the slider 4 and the right inner wall of the adjacent slide groove. The spring 25 is sleeved on the outer arc surface of the adjacent guide slide column 24. If the tea leaves are not shaken during the kneading process... The tea leaves are prone to clumping due to moisture and pressure. Clumping affects the rolling effect, preventing the tea leaves from being fully rolled. At this time, the worker operates the control switch group 9 to start the motor 23. The output shaft of the motor 23 drives the cam 21 to rotate through the rotating shaft. During the rotation of the cam 21, the distal end of the cam 21 continuously approaches and moves away from the shaking plate 22. When it approaches the shaking plate 22, it pushes the shaking plate 22 to the right. The shaking plate 22 moves to the right, which in turn drives the rolling chamber 5 to move to the right. At this time, the rolling chamber 5 drives the two sliders 4 to move to the right inside the slide groove of the slide rail 3, which in turn squeezes the two springs 25 (during this process, the guide slide column 24 slides inside the adjacent slide hole 10). At this time, the springs 25 are under pressure. When the distal end of the cam 21 moves away from the shaking plate 22, the springs 25, under the elastic potential energy, push the sliders 4 to drive the rolling chamber 5 to move to the left and return to its original position. This process is repeated continuously. Through this left and right shaking method, the tea leaves are kept in a loose state, avoiding clumping.

[0026] The working principle of the tea processing and kneading mechanism provided by this utility model is as follows: First, the worker puts the tea leaves to be kneaded into the kneading chamber 5. Then, the worker operates the control switch group 9 to make the motor 8 run. The output shaft of the motor 8 starts to drive the kneading block 7 to rotate forward and backward through the rotating shaft 6. At this time, the kneading block 7 cooperates with the bottom wall of the kneading chamber 5 to knead the tea leaves. If the tea leaves are not shaken during the kneading process, they are prone to clumping due to the action of moisture and pressure. Clumping will affect the kneading effect and prevent the tea leaves inside from being fully kneaded. At this time, the worker operates the control switch group 9 to make the motor 23 run. The output shaft of the motor 23 drives the cam 21 to rotate through the rotating shaft. During the process, the distal end of the cam 21 continuously approaches and moves away from the shaking plate 22. When it approaches the shaking plate 22, it pushes the shaking plate 22 to the right. The shaking plate 22 moves to the right, which in turn drives the kneading chamber 5 to move to the right. At this time, the kneading chamber 5 drives the two sliders 4 to move to the right inside the slide groove of the slide rail 3, which in turn squeezes the two springs 25 (during this process, the guide slide column 24 slides inside the adjacent slide hole 10). At this time, the springs 25 are under pressure. When the distal end of the cam 21 moves away from the shaking plate 22, the springs 25, under the elastic potential energy, push the sliders 4 to drive the kneading chamber 5 to move to the left and return to its original position. This process is repeated continuously. Through this left and right shaking method, the tea leaves are kept in a loose state to avoid clumping.

[0027] It is worth noting that the motor 8 disclosed in the above embodiments is a servo motor, the motor 23 can be model Y90L-2, and the control switch group 9 is provided with control buttons that correspond one-to-one with it and are used to control its switching.

[0028] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
