Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dark tea technology, specifically a dark tea pressing device. Background Technology
[0002] Dark tea is one of the six major tea categories in China. It belongs to post-fermented tea, and its production process generally includes four steps: fixation, rolling, piling, and drying. Piling is a unique process for dark tea, in which the rolled tea leaves are piled up and fermented by microorganisms, giving the tea leaves a dark brown and oily color. To improve the sales and preservation of dark tea, it is often pressed into sheets to extend its shelf life and quality, and to make it easier to drink.
[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent discloses a black tea pressing device (publication number: CN218366649U), comprising a support and a main rod. The side of the main rod is rotatably connected to the support. The two ends of the main rod are a force-applying end and a movable end, respectively. The distance between the force-applying end and the pin is much greater than the distance between the movable end and the pin. A bent rod is fixedly connected to the top of the support, and a cylindrical hollow tube is fixedly connected to the end of the bent rod. A feeding port for feeding black tea raw materials is provided on the top surface of the hollow tube. A connecting rod is hinged to the movable end, and a longitudinal rod is hinged to the upper end of the connecting rod. A pressure plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the longitudinal rod. When force is applied downward to the force-applying end, the movable end drives the pressure plate to move upward along the axial direction of the hollow tube. The main rod forms a force-saving lever, generating greater pressure at the movable end, thereby pressing the black tea more compactly. The person can sit on a stool to press the tea, reducing the fatigue and trouble of constantly carrying heavy objects when manually pressing tea, making the operation convenient and labor-saving.
[0004] Although the aforementioned patent uses a bracket and main rod, along with the bracket, the upper curved rod, the longitudinal rod, and the pressure plate, to press the black tea inside the hollow tube into sheets using the lever principle, it is very labor-intensive for the operator. The operation requires the operator to constantly get up and sit down, using their own weight to drive the pressure plate at one end of the lever to press the black tea into sheets. This method is cumbersome and does not improve the operator's efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a black tea pressing device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] 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.
[0027] This utility model provides a black tea tablet pressing device, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the black tea pressing equipment includes a support platform 1, a working frame 2 is fixedly connected to the upper top of the support platform 1, and a pressing assembly is provided at the lower bottom of the working frame 2.
[0028] The tableting assembly includes a tableting cylinder 3 fixedly connected inside the work frame 2. A top rod 4 is slidably connected to the bottom end of the tableting cylinder 3. A positioning block 5 is fixedly connected to the center of the top end of the support platform 1. A rotating shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning block 5. A balance rod 7 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 6. One end of the balance rod 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top rod 4, and a foot pedal 8 is fixedly connected to the end of the balance rod 7 away from the top rod 4. This design allows the operator to easily move the top rod 4 inside the tableting cylinder 3 by stepping on the foot pedal 8, using the lever principle, thus realizing the tableting operation of black tea, saving time and effort.
[0029] A sieving assembly is installed at the top of the support platform 1. The sieving assembly includes a vertical rod 9 fixedly connected to the top of the support platform 1, a support plate 10 fixedly fixed to the top of the vertical rod 9, a sieving table 11 fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 10, and a sieve plate 12 slidably connected to the inner wall of the sieving table 11. This design enables the sieving of dark tea before pressing, effectively removing impurities and improving the quality of the dark tea.
[0030] A rotating base 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 10. A crossbar 14 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating base 13. A seat 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the crossbar 14. Handrails are fixedly connected to both sides of the seat 15. This arrangement provides the operator with a comfortable and stable operating position, making it convenient for the operator to perform relevant operations on the equipment. At the same time, the handrails also provide a certain degree of safety protection.
[0031] A pressure cap 16 is rotatably connected to the top of the pressing cylinder 3. A feeding port 17 is opened on the top of the pressure cap 16. A top cover 18 for pressing is slidably connected to the inner wall of the pressing cylinder 3. The top cover 18 can provide support for the black tea during the pressing process, and complete the pressing work in conjunction with the top rod. Moreover, the thickness of the pressed tea can be changed by adjusting its position to meet different production needs.
[0032] The side wall of the sieving table 11 has a groove 19 at the sieve plate 12. A pressing rod 20 is slidably connected inside the groove 19, and the end of the pressing rod 20 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sieve plate 12. Multiple return springs are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sieve plate 12. This design has a clear function and effect. By pushing the pressing rod 20, the operator can easily control the sieve plate 12 to slide within the sieving table 11 using the guiding effect of the groove 19. The multiple return springs at the bottom of the sieve plate 12 can quickly return the sieve plate to its original position by their own elastic force after the pressing rod pushes the sieve plate, thus realizing the reciprocating motion of the sieve plate. In this way, the sieve plate can fully sieve the black tea placed on it, effectively removing impurities, and the design of the return springs can reduce the labor intensity of the operator and improve the sieving efficiency.
[0033] Specifically, the support platform 1 provides sufficient stability for the entire device, facilitating the operator's work of pressing black tea into sheets. Using the pressing assembly, the black tea can be pressed into sheets using leverage by the operator's foot pedal operation, saving time and effort while reducing operational difficulty. The operator sits on the seat 15, with armrests on both sides providing convenient leverage and preventing slippage. By stepping on the foot pedal 8, the balance bar 7 rotates on the pivot 6, via the lever... The lever principle drives the top rod 4 at the other end to compress the black tea inside the pressing cylinder 3. By sliding the top cover 18 inside the pressing cylinder 3, a base is provided for the black tea to abut, facilitating the compression of the black tea by the top rod 4. The thickness of the compressed sheets can be adjusted by sliding the top cover 18 inside the pressing cylinder 3. After the black tea is fed in, the protrusions on the outer wall of the top cover 18 engage with the grooves on the side wall of the pressing cylinder 3, which can stably engage the top cover 18 inside the pressing cylinder 3, making it easier to evenly distribute the black tea inside the pressing cylinder 3 and improve the uniformity of the tea sheets. The uniformity of the product improves the quality of dark tea. By adjusting the position of the top cover 18, the thickness of the pressed dark tea can be adjusted according to customer requirements, greatly improving the applicability of dark tea. The feeding port 17 allows operators to easily put the selected dark tea into the pressing process. The sieving component effectively removes dust and impurities from the dark tea in the early stages of pressing, improving the product quality. The manual sieving is highly accurate. By manually operating the pressing rod 20, the sieve plate 12 moves longitudinally within the sieving table 11, causing the dark tea on the sieve plate 12 to be constantly shaken, removing dust and impurities. Because multiple return springs are set at the bottom of the sieve plate 12, the operator's labor intensity can be reduced by the spring rebound. Through continuous sieving, impurities and dust generated during the production of dark tea can be removed, facilitating the next pressing process. The component has a simple structure, low operation difficulty, and can accommodate more operators, thereby reducing production costs. The flexible component also facilitates later maintenance.
[0034] "The top of the support platform 1 and the bottom of the crossbar 14 are fixedly connected to the support column 21. The support column 21 provides stability for the seat 15. A collection box 22 is provided on one side of the support platform 1 to facilitate the placement of flaky black tea. A caster wheel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collection box 22."
[0035] By setting a support column 21 at the top of the support platform 1, the stability of the seat 15 can be further improved, preventing the operator from falling during the pressing process and improving operational safety. The movable collection box 22 makes it easy for the operator to put the pressed black tea into it for collection, further improving the efficiency of pressing, reducing the pollution of the external environment on the pressed black tea, and improving product quality.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
