Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tea manufacturing technology, specifically a tea leaf turning and drying device with uniform airflow dispersion. Background Technology

[0002] Tea drying machines are used to dry tea leaves. Because tea leaves need to go through multiple drying processes, a rotating tea drying machine has emerged to achieve this function. Hot air enters from the bottom of the tea drying machine and passes through multiple drying flip plates to dry the tea leaves. During the drying process, the tea leaves pass through layer after layer of flip plates until they reach the bottom of the tea drying machine, where the drying process is completed.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, tea drying machines require manual operation. The tea leaves are dried on the drying flip plate. After a certain time, the flip plate needs to be manually rotated so that the tea leaves fall to the lower drying flip plate to continue drying. However, this may cause the tea leaves to pile up, resulting in the tea leaves not being completely dried and seriously affecting the quality of the tea. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides a tea drying device with uniform airflow dispersion, which solves the problem that in the existing technology, tea dryers require manual operation. The tea leaves enter the drying flip plate for drying, and after a certain time, the flip plate needs to be manually rotated so that the tea leaves fall to the lower drying flip plate to continue drying. However, this may cause the tea leaves to pile up, resulting in the tea leaves not being completely dried and seriously affecting the quality of the tea.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tea leaf drying device with uniformly dispersed airflow, comprising a drying box, an inclined plate fixedly installed inside the drying box, two sliding grooves formed on the drying box, sliders slidably installed in the sliding grooves, four rotating shafts II installed inside the drying box, drying flaps mounted on the rotating shafts II, a screw installed inside the drying box, a motor I connected to one end of the screw passing through the drying box, the motor I mounted on the drying box, a fixing frame threaded onto the screw, a rotating shaft I mounted on the fixing frame, the rotating shaft I passing through the fixing frame and connected to the slider, a supporting slide plate fixedly installed on the outer wall of the drying box, an installation box slidably mounted on the supporting slide plate, a motor II fixedly installed inside the installation box, and the rotating shaft I passing through the fixing frame and the slider connected to the output shaft of the motor II.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: air holes are provided on the inclined plate and the drying flip plate, and a control table is installed on the drying box.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a cover plate is installed on the drying oven, and a pull ring is fixedly installed on the cover plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two rotating rods are installed inside the drying box, and two cams are fixedly installed on the rotating rods, with the cams close to the bottom of the drying flap.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a handle is fixedly installed on the rotating rod, and a sealing door is installed on the drying box.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a hot air box is installed inside the drying oven, and several leveling rods are installed on the rotating shaft.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. This tea drying equipment with uniformly dispersed airflow, consisting of a pull ring, cover plate, inclined plate, and rotating shaft, operates as follows: During operation, the operator opens the cover plate using the pull ring, then evenly places the tea leaves to be dried onto the two upper drying flip plates. The cover plate is then closed, and the hot air box is activated via a control panel. The hot air generated by the hot air box passes evenly through the air holes on the inclined plate and drying flip plates, thus drying the tea leaves. When the tea leaves enter the lower drying flip plate, the operator activates motor one. The output shaft of motor one drives the screw to rotate, causing the threaded fixed frame on it to move along the slide groove. Simultaneously, motor two is activated, and its output shaft drives rotating shaft one, which in turn drives several leveling rods mounted on it to rotate synchronously. This prevents tea leaves from piling up during the drying process, ensuring complete drying and reducing operating costs.

[0013] 2. This tea drying equipment with uniformly dispersed airflow uses cams, rotating rods, handles, and drying flaps. During operation, the operator turns the handle, which drives the rotating rod installed inside the drying chamber to rotate. Since two cams are fixedly installed on the rotating rod and are close to the bottom of the drying flap, the rotation of the rotating rod will drive the cams to rotate, thereby causing the drying flap to rotate around the second rotating shaft. This shakes the tea leaves onto the flap and moves them to the next layer, facilitating the normal operation of subsequent work. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a tea leaf turning plate drying device with uniform airflow dispersion, including a drying box 1, a hot air box 15 installed inside the drying box 1, and a number of leveling rods 20 installed on the rotating shaft 19.

[0021] Two rotating rods 12 are installed inside the drying chamber 1. Two cams 22 are fixedly installed on the rotating rods 12. The cams 22 are close to the bottom of the drying flap 10. A handle 9 is fixedly installed on the rotating rods 12. A sealing door 13 is installed on the drying chamber 1. Because of the handle 9, the rotating rods 12 can be rotated by the handle 9. Since there are two cams 22 fixedly installed on the rotating rods 12 and the cams 22 are close to the bottom of the drying flap 10, the rotation of the rotating rods 12 will drive the cams 22 to rotate, thereby driving the drying flap 10 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 23, thereby shaking the tea leaves on it into the next layer, which facilitates the normal operation of subsequent work.

[0022] The drying chamber 1 is equipped with a cover plate 4, and a pull ring 3 is fixedly installed on the cover plate 4. Because of the cover plate 4, the temperature inside the drying chamber 1 can be maintained, the heat energy utilization efficiency can be improved, the drying time can be shortened, and at the same time, dust and debris can be prevented from entering the dryer, avoiding contamination of the tea and ensuring the quality of the finished product.

[0023] An inclined plate 14 is fixedly installed inside the drying chamber 1. Air holes 11 are opened on the inclined plate 14 and the drying flip plate 10. A control table 2 is installed on the drying chamber 1. Because of the air holes 11, hot air can be evenly distributed, so that all parts of the tea are heated evenly, preventing local overheating or uneven drying. At the same time, the temperature and humidity inside the dryer can be adjusted to avoid damage to the tea due to excessive temperature or humidity.

[0024] The drying chamber 1 has two sliding grooves 5, and a slider 17 is slidably installed in the sliding grooves 5. Four rotating shafts 23 are installed inside the drying chamber 1, and drying flaps 10 are installed on the rotating shafts 23. A screw 21 is installed inside the drying chamber 1, and a motor 8 is connected to one end of the screw 21 that passes through the drying chamber 1. Because motors 8 and 16 are installed, motor 8 can drive the screw 21 to rotate, thereby driving the fixed frame 18 connected to it by threads to move along the sliding grooves 5. During this process, motor 16 is turned on, and the output shaft of motor 16 drives rotating shaft 19 to rotate, which can drive several leveling rods 20 installed on it to rotate synchronously. This can prevent the tea leaves from piling up during the drying process, avoid the tea leaves not being completely dried, and reduce the operating cost.

[0025] Motor 18 is installed on drying chamber 1. A fixing frame 18 is threaded onto screw 21. A rotating shaft 19 is installed on the fixing frame 18. The rotating shaft 19 passes through the fixing frame 18 and is connected to slider 17. A support slide plate 6 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of drying chamber 1. An installation box 7 is slidably installed on the support slide plate 6. Motor 26 is fixedly installed inside the installation box 7. The rotating shaft 19 passes through the fixing frame 18 and slider 17 and is connected to the output shaft of motor 26.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When working, the operator opens the cover plate 4 through the pull ring 3, then evenly places the tea leaves to be dried on the two upper drying flip plates 10, and then closes the cover plate 4. The hot air box 15 is turned on through the control dial 2. The hot air generated by the hot air box 15 will evenly pass through the inclined plate 14 and the air holes 11 opened on the drying flip plates 10, thereby drying the tea leaves on the drying flip plates 10. When the tea leaves enter the lower drying flip plates 10, the operator turns on the motor 1 8. The output shaft of the motor 1 8 drives the screw 21 to rotate, thereby driving the fixed frame 18 connected to it to move along the slide groove 5. During this process, the operator turns on the motor 2 16. The output shaft of the motor 2 16 drives the rotating shaft 1 19 to rotate, thereby driving the several leveling rods 20 installed on it to rotate synchronously, which can prevent the tea leaves from piling up during the drying process.

[0027] When working, the operator turns the handle 9, which drives the rotating rod 12 installed inside the drying chamber 1 to rotate. Since two cams 22 are fixedly installed on the rotating rod 12 and the cams 22 are close to the bottom of the drying flap 10, the rotation of the rotating rod 12 will drive the cams 22 to rotate, thereby driving the drying flap 10 to rotate around the rotating shaft 23.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
