Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea drying and dehumidification, specifically an energy-saving and environmentally friendly stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structure. Background Technology

[0002] The stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structure is a device specifically designed for tea processing. Made of high-quality stainless steel, it features efficient dehumidification and uniform drying. Through the synergistic action of the heating and dehumidification mechanisms, this structure effectively removes moisture emitted by the tea leaves during the drying process, preventing re-dampening. Simultaneously, the ingenious design of the tea placement structure ensures even heating of the tea leaves during the drying process.

[0003] Existing energy-saving and environmentally friendly stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structures can efficiently and evenly dry tea leaves while effectively removing moisture and preventing the tea leaves from becoming damp again. When the tea drying and dehumidification equipment is drying tea leaves, if you want the tea leaves to dry as quickly as possible, you need to increase the temperature and wind speed. However, because tea leaves are light, if the wind speed is too high, the tea leaves will fly away. If the wind speed is too low, you need to increase the drying time to ensure that the tea leaves reach the drying standard, which reduces its working efficiency and thus reduces the ease of use of the tea drying and dehumidification equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an energy-saving and environmentally friendly stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structure to solve the technical problem that tea leaves are easily blown away when the wind speed is too high.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an energy-saving and environmentally friendly stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structure, comprising a drying equipment body, a first conveyor belt on the drying equipment body, a limiting mechanism on the top of the first conveyor belt, the limiting mechanism including a second conveyor belt, support frames on both sides of the second conveyor belt, a motor on one side of the second conveyor belt, a limiting rod on one side of the second conveyor belt, a support mechanism on one side of the support frame, the support mechanism including a column, a lifting mechanism on the top of the column, a connecting rod on the top of the lifting mechanism, and one side of the connecting rod connected to the support frame.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the control center controls the operation of the lifting mechanism, and then adjusts the position of the connecting rod and the limit mechanism connected to it. This adjustment makes the distance between the second conveyor belt and the first conveyor belt reach the optimal state, which not only ensures that the second conveyor belt can effectively limit the tea leaves on the first conveyor belt, but also avoids crushing the tea leaves due to excessive pressure. At the same time, both the first and second conveyor belts in the main body of the drying equipment adopt a mesh structure. When the tea leaves accidentally stick to the second conveyor belt during the drying process, the brush set below the limit rod will clean the sticky tea leaves in time. The cleaned tea leaves will fall back onto the first conveyor belt to continue to receive drying treatment.

[0007] Furthermore, both the first and second conveyor belts have a mesh structure, and the second conveyor belt is used to limit the movement of the tea leaves.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the mesh structure not only makes the conveyor belt lighter, but also greatly improves its air permeability. During the drying process, hot air can pass freely through the mesh structure, ensuring that the tea leaves can be heated in all directions and evenly.

[0009] Furthermore, the second conveyor belt and the limiting rod are rotatably connected, and a cleaning brush is provided below the limiting rod for cleaning tea leaves adhering to the second conveyor belt.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of tea leaves possibly sticking to the second conveyor belt during the drying process is solved. When tea leaves accidentally stick, the cleaning brush will brush them off in time as the second conveyor belt rotates.

[0011] Furthermore, the support mechanism is provided in four sets, arranged in a rectangular array, to provide support for the second conveyor belt.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, it is ensured that the second conveyor belt can maintain a stable position and posture during the drying process, providing it with sufficient support.

[0013] Furthermore, a heating chamber is provided above the first conveyor belt, and an observation window is provided on one side of the heating chamber.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, tea leaves can be dried in a heated chamber, avoiding interference from the external environment and improving the efficiency and quality of drying.

[0015] Furthermore, a support rod is provided below the first conveyor belt, and a rubber pad is provided below the support rod.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the support rod provides stable support for the first conveyor belt, ensuring its smooth operation during the drying process.

[0017] Furthermore, a breathable mesh plate is provided below the first conveyor belt, and the mesh plates are arranged linearly at equal intervals.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the breathable mesh plate further improves the breathability of the conveyor belt, allowing hot air to pass through the tea layer more evenly, thereby improving the drying efficiency and uniformity.

[0019] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0020] 1. This utility model, through a limiting mechanism and a supporting mechanism, firstly, the control center precisely controls the operation of the lifting mechanism, adjusts the position of the connecting rod and the limiting mechanism, so that the distance between the second conveyor belt and the first conveyor belt is adjusted, ensuring that the second conveyor belt can effectively limit the tea leaves on the first conveyor belt. At the same time, both the first and second conveyor belts are mesh structures, which not only promotes the free circulation of hot air in the heating chamber, but also automatically cleans the tea leaves when they accidentally stick to the second conveyor belt, allowing the tea leaves to fall back to the first conveyor belt for further processing. This automatic cleaning function reduces manual intervention and improves the automation level of the equipment. When the wind speed is too high, the second conveyor belt acts as a limiter to prevent the tea leaves from flying away, avoiding the impact of low wind speed on the working efficiency of tea drying, and still maintaining high drying efficiency, thus improving the ease of use of the tea drying and dehumidification equipment.

[0021] 2. By setting up a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt, the mesh structure allows hot air to pass freely through the conveyor belts during the drying process and come into full contact with the tea leaves, thereby improving the drying efficiency and uniformity. The mesh structure increases the contact area between the hot air and the tea leaves, allowing the tea leaves to absorb heat more quickly and achieve the desired drying effect.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0028] Energy-saving and environmentally friendly stainless steel tea drying and dehumidification structure, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the equipment includes a drying device body 1, on which a first conveyor belt 3 is mounted. A limit mechanism 6 is mounted on the top of the first conveyor belt 3. The limit mechanism 6 includes a second conveyor belt 601. Support frames 602 are mounted on both sides of the second conveyor belt 601. A motor 603 is mounted on one side of the second conveyor belt 601, and a limit rod 604 is mounted on one side of the second conveyor belt 601. A support mechanism 7 is mounted on one side of the support frame 602. The support mechanism 7 includes a column 701, and a lifting mechanism 702 is mounted on the top of the column 701. A connecting rod 703 is mounted on the top of the lifting mechanism 702, and one side of the connecting rod 703 is connected to the support frame 602. The control center controls the operation of the lifting mechanism 702, thereby adjusting the position of the connecting rod 703 and the connected limit mechanism 6. The adjustment optimizes the spacing between the second conveyor belt 601 and the first conveyor belt 3, ensuring that the second conveyor belt 601 effectively limits the tea leaves on the first conveyor belt 3 while preventing the tea leaves from being crushed due to excessive pressure. Furthermore, both the first conveyor belt 3 and the second conveyor belt 601 within the main body of the drying equipment 1 employ a mesh structure. When tea leaves accidentally adhere to the second conveyor belt 601 during the drying process, a brush located below the limiting rod 604 will promptly clean the adhered tea leaves, which will then fall back onto the first conveyor belt 3 to continue drying. In cases of excessive wind speed, the second conveyor belt 601 will act as a limiter to prevent the tea leaves from being blown away, maintaining high drying efficiency and improving the ease of use and adaptability of the tea drying and dehumidification equipment.

[0029] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4Both the first conveyor belt 3 and the second conveyor belt 601 have a mesh structure. The second conveyor belt 601 is used to limit the tea leaves. The mesh structure not only makes the conveyor belt lighter, but also greatly improves its air permeability. During the drying process, hot air can pass freely through the mesh structure to ensure that the tea leaves can be heated in all directions and evenly. At the same time, as a limiting mechanism, the mesh structure of the second conveyor belt 601 not only effectively limits the tea leaves, but also avoids damage to the tea leaves caused by direct contact, thereby ensuring the integrity of the tea leaves and the quality after drying.

[0030] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 The second conveyor belt 601 and the limiting rod 604 are rotatably connected, and a cleaning brush is provided below the limiting rod 604 to clean the tea leaves adhering to the second conveyor belt 601. This solves the problem that tea leaves may stick to the second conveyor belt 601 during the drying process. When tea leaves accidentally stick, the cleaning brush will brush them off in time as the second conveyor belt rotates, ensuring that the tea leaves can fall back onto the first conveyor belt 3 to continue drying. This automatic cleaning function not only improves the automation level of the equipment, but also reduces manual intervention, thereby improving drying efficiency and reducing production costs.

[0031] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 The support mechanism 7 consists of four sets arranged in a rectangular array to provide support for the second conveyor belt 601. This ensures that the second conveyor belt 601 maintains a stable position and posture during the drying process, providing sufficient support. At the same time, the rectangular array arrangement makes the support mechanism 7 more evenly distributed, avoiding equipment damage or deformation caused by excessive local stress, improving the stability and durability of the equipment, and providing a strong guarantee for long-term, continuous drying operations.

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 A heating chamber 2 is set above the first conveyor belt 3, and an observation window 4 is set on one side of the heating chamber 2, so that the tea can be dried in the heating chamber 2, avoiding interference from the external environment, improving the efficiency and quality of drying. At the same time, the setting of the observation window 4 facilitates the operator to monitor the drying process in real time, and can promptly detect and deal with possible problems, ensuring the sealing of the drying process and improving the convenience and safety of operation.

[0033] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3A support rod 5 is installed below the first conveyor belt 3, and a rubber pad 9 is installed below the support rod 5. The support rod 5 provides stable support for the first conveyor belt 3, ensuring its smooth operation during the drying process. The rubber pad 9 effectively reduces friction and vibration between the support rod 5 and the ground or other parts of the equipment, reduces noise and wear, improves the stability of the equipment, and extends its service life.

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 A breathable mesh plate 8 is installed below the first conveyor belt 3, and is arranged in a linear pattern at equal intervals. The breathable mesh plate 8 further improves the breathability of the conveyor belt, allowing hot air to pass through the tea layer more evenly, thus improving the drying efficiency and uniformity. At the same time, the linear pattern at equal intervals also makes the breathable mesh plate 8 more beautiful and neat, improving the overall appearance quality of the equipment. It is both practical and beautiful, providing better conditions for the drying and dehumidification process of tea.

[0035] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the control center controls the lifting mechanism 702 to operate, adjusting the position of the connecting rod 703 and the limiting mechanism 6 connected to the connecting rod 703, so that the distance between the second conveyor belt 601 and the first conveyor belt 3 changes, allowing the second conveyor belt 601 to limit the tea leaves on the first conveyor belt 3 without crushing them. Then, the worker spreads the tea leaves evenly on the first conveyor belt 3, and the control center controls the motor 603 and the drive motor to drive the first conveyor belt 3 and the second conveyor belt 601 to run. Since both the first conveyor belt 3 and the second conveyor belt 601 are mesh... The structure allows hot air to circulate within the heating chamber 2, ensuring even drying of the tea leaves. When tea leaves adhere to the second conveyor belt 601, a brush below the limiting rod 604 cleans the adhered tea leaves, causing them to fall onto the first rotating belt 3 for further processing. Due to the presence of the second conveyor belt 601 and the limiting rod 604, when the wind speed is too high, the second conveyor belt 601 will limit the tea leaves, reducing the risk of them flying away due to excessive wind speed and preventing the drying efficiency from being affected by insufficient wind speed. This improves the ease of use of the tea drying and dehumidification equipment.
