[0026] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 A fermentation processing device for tea production, comprising a box body 1, a plurality of evenly distributed partition plates 11 are fixedly connected on both sides of the inside of the box body 1, a fermentation tank 2 located between the partition plates 11, a fixed shaft 21 penetrating through itself and inserted into the inside of the box body 1 is arranged in the fermentation tank 2, a heating copper pipe 12 is arranged at the bottom end of the inside of the box body 1, a bottom plate 13 corresponding to the box body 1 is arranged on the heating copper pipe 12, and a plurality of evenly distributed air holes 14 penetrating through themselves are arranged on the bottom plate 13.

[0027] In the embodiment, by providing a fermentation processing device for tea production, the device comprises a box body 1, a plurality of evenly distributed partition plates 11 are fixedly connected to the inside of the box body 1, a fermentation tank 2 is arranged between the partition plates 11, and a fixed shaft 21 is arranged in the fermentation tank 2. The structure design makes the tea evenly distributed during the fermentation process, and the movement and overturning of the fermentation tank 2 are realized by the fixed shaft 21, which avoids the uneven fermentation and the generation of bad fermentation odor caused by the stacking of tea in the traditional stacking fermentation mode. Meanwhile, a heating copper pipe 12 and air holes 14 are arranged at the bottom end of the inside of the box body 1, which increases the drying temperature in the box body 1 and ensures the uniformity and efficiency of tea fermentation, thereby effectively solving the problems of unstable tea quality and stacking flavor in the existing fermentation mode and improving the overall quality of tea fermentation.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the fermentation tank 2 comprises an outer box body 22 and an inner box body 23 which are respectively penetrated by the fixed shaft 21, and the inner box body 23 is arranged in the inside of the outer box body 22. The double-layer structure design is conducive to improving the heat preservation performance of the fermentation tank, and is convenient for cleaning and maintenance. The end of the fixed shaft 21 close to the inner side plate body of the box body 1 is fixedly connected with a T-shaped limiting piece 24, the limiting piece 24 is matched with a sliding groove 15 in the inside of the box body 1, and the stability and accuracy of the fermentation tank 2 during rotation are ensured.

[0029] The sliding groove 15 corresponding to the limiting piece 24 is arranged in the inside of the box body 1, and the length of the sliding groove 15 is not less than the width of the fermentation tank 2, which ensures that the fermentation tank 2 can rotate freely in the box body 1, so that the tea can more evenly receive heat and air flow during the fermentation process, and the uniformity of fermentation is further improved.

[0030] The sum of the width of the fermentation tank 2 and the width of the two side partition plates 11 is not greater than the internal width of the box body 1, which ensures that the fermentation tank 2 has enough space to rotate and move in the box body 1, and also facilitates the operation and maintenance of the fermentation tank 2 by the operator.

[0031] The end of the fixed shaft 21 away from the limiting piece 24 is provided with a sealing door 16 which is movably connected with the box body 1 through a rotating shaft hinge. The design of the sealing door 16 can effectively prevent the loss of heat during the fermentation process, and can be conveniently opened when the fermentation tank 2 needs to be operated, thereby ensuring the convenience of operation.

[0032] In the embodiment, the innovative design of the above structure not only improves the uniformity and efficiency of tea fermentation, but also enhances the heat preservation performance of the fermentation tank and the convenience of operation, thereby further improving the overall quality and production efficiency of tea fermentation. In addition, the arrangement of the sealing door 16 also helps to reduce the invasion of foreign odors and maintain the purity of the tea fermentation environment, which helps to improve the aroma and taste of the tea.

[0033] In use, first, the tea to be fermented is evenly placed in the fermentation tank 2 between the partition plates 11, ensuring that the tea is evenly distributed during fermentation. Then, the fermentation tank 2 is moved and turned by the fixed shaft 21, which helps to avoid uneven fermentation and the production of bad fermentation odor caused by tea stacking. During fermentation, the heating copper pipe 12 at the bottom of the box 1 starts to work, providing the necessary heat, while the air holes 14 on the bottom plate 13 ensure heat and air circulation, further promoting the uniform fermentation of the tea.

[0034] When the fermentation tank 2 needs to be operated or maintained, the sealing door 16 can be opened by the rotating shaft hinge on the end of the fixed shaft 21 away from the limiting piece 24, which ensures minimal heat loss during fermentation and ensures the convenience of operation. During fermentation, the double-layer structure of the fermentation tank 2, including the outer box 22 and the inner box 23, improves the heat preservation performance and facilitates cleaning and maintenance.

[0035] During fermentation, if the degree of tea fermentation needs to be adjusted, the fermentation tank 2 can be freely rotated in the box 1 by the cooperation of the T-shaped limiting piece 24 and the sliding groove 15 inside the box 1, so that the tea can more evenly receive heat and air circulation, further improving the uniformity of fermentation. After fermentation is completed, the fermented tea is taken out through the sealing door 16 for subsequent processing steps.

[0036] During the entire use process, the width design of the fermentation tank 2 and the two side partition plates 11 ensures that the fermentation tank 2 has enough space to rotate and move in the box 1, and also facilitates the operator to operate and maintain the fermentation tank 2, thereby realizing efficient, uniform and quality improvement of the tea fermentation process.

[0037] Although the present application has been disclosed with reference to the preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present application, and any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be defined by the claims.
