When the quantitative box 9 is filled with a certain amount of tea leaves, the handle 12 is pushed to move the quantitative box 9 to the left side of the inner surface of the feed hopper 4. When the quantitative box 9 moves to the left side, the stop plate 10 is moved to the bottom end of the feed hose 5 to block the bottom end of the feed hose 5 and stop the tea leaves from falling. When the quantitative box 9 moves to the left side of the feed hopper 4, the tea leaves inside the quantitative box 9 enter the fermentation tank 3 along the slot at the bottom end of the quantitative box 9 through the feed hopper 4 on the left side. Then the handle 12 is pulled back to move the quantitative box 9 to the right side of the feed hopper 4, and then the stop plate 10 is moved to the right side to stop blocking the bottom end of the feed hose 5, so that the tea leaves fall into the quantitative box 9. Then the above operation is repeated to pour a specified amount of tea leaves into the fermentation tank 3 in batches, and then the fermentation tank 3 is started to ferment the tea leaves.
[0037] When the fermentation is completed, the operation of the fermentation tank 3 is stopped first, then the external discharge pipe is connected with the discharge port 18 first, then the baffle 19 is drawn out, the fermented tea leaves are discharged, then the telescopic motor 7 is started to drive the fermentation tank 3 to tilt, the residual tea leaves in the fermentation tank 3 are moved to the discharge port 18 by gravity and discharged.
