Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tea processing equipment, and more specifically, to a tea processing flattening device. Background Technology
[0002] In tea processing, flattening devices typically refer to equipment used to flatten tea leaves. This equipment plays a crucial role in tea processing production lines, helping tea leaves achieve specific shapes and densities, thereby affecting the tea's taste and appearance.
[0003] During operation, the operator usually needs to put the dry tea leaves to be processed into the feeding device, start the control system, so that the flattening roller starts to rotate and apply pressure, and the tea leaves are flattened.
[0004] However, existing tea processing flattening devices cannot improve the uniformity and adjustability of tea flattening during use.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tea processing flattening device that can uniformly flatten tea leaves and adjust the flattening force. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tea processing flattening device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:
[0008] A tea processing flattening device includes a processing frame, a support frame on the outer surface of the processing frame, a drive motor on the front surface of the processing frame, and a flattening structure located inside the processing frame and connected to the drive motor. The flattening structure includes a rotating rod connected to the drive motor, a support rod on the surface of the rotating rod and installed vertically, a scraper on the upper surface of the support rod, three dispersing rollers installed on the surface of the support rod at equal intervals, a fixing rod on the surface of the rotating rod and installed at a right angle to the support rod, an adjusting sleeve fitted to the end of the fixing rod, a limiting clip for connecting the adjusting sleeve to the fixing rod, and a pressure plate at the end of the adjusting sleeve.
[0009] The surface of the processing frame is equipped with a control panel, which is electrically connected to the drive motor and the dispersing roller.
[0010] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the support rod is provided in two parts and is located on the left and right sides of the rotating rod surface, respectively.
[0011] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the two ends of the dispersing roller are respectively connected to the support rod and are equipped with a micro motor to realize the rotational movement of the dispersing roller, thereby performing a rotational dispersion operation on the tea leaves as they are flattened by the pressure plate, rolled upwards, and fall downwards, so as to achieve uniform and effective flattening of the tea leaves.
[0012] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the dispersing roller is fitted with thin rods arranged in a staggered manner.
[0013] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the thin rod is made of rubber to prevent damage to the tea leaves when they are being broken up.
[0014] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the fixing rod is provided with a plurality of positioning holes, which cooperate with the limiting clip.
[0015] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the end of the limiting clip connected to the adjusting sleeve is rotatably connected, and the end connected to the fixing rod is detachably and movably fitted. The limiting clip and the positioning hole are movably fitted, so that the force applied to flattening the tea leaves can be adjusted as needed.
[0016] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the thin rods are arranged in groups of three and installed on the surface of the dispersing roller in a staggered structure, so as to smooth the tea leaves upwards during the flattening process.
[0017] Beneficial effects of the invention
[0018] Compared with a traditional tea processing flattening device, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0019] In this invention, by setting an adjustable pressure plate, the pressure on the pressure plate in contact with the tea can be adjusted according to the degree of flattening required for the tea flattening process, thereby improving the tea flattening quality and work efficiency.
[0020] Meanwhile, the dispersing roller, which is set at a right angle to the pressure plate, disperses the tea leaves that have been flattened and rolled down by the pressure plate during its rotational motion, in conjunction with the thin rod. This enhances the uniformity of the flattening of the tea leaves and prevents uneven flattening caused by the accumulation of tea leaves as they fall. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0029] Example:
[0030] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution for a tea processing flattening device:
[0031] As shown in the figure, a tea processing flattening device includes a processing frame 1, a support frame 2 on the outer surface of the processing frame 1, a drive motor 3 on the front surface of the processing frame 1, and a flattening structure 4 located inside the processing frame 1 and connected to the drive motor 3. The flattening structure 4 includes a rotating rod 41 connected to the drive motor 3, a support rod 42 on the surface of the rotating rod 41 and installed vertically, a scraper 43 on the upper surface of the support rod 42, three dispersing rollers 44 installed on the surface of the support rod 42 in a uniform and equidistant manner, a fixing rod 45 on the surface of the rotating rod 41 and installed at a right angle to the support rod 42, an adjusting sleeve 46 fitted with the end of the fixing rod 45, a limiting clip 47 for connecting the adjusting sleeve 46 and the fixing rod 45, and a pressure plate 48 at the end of the adjusting sleeve 46.
[0032] The surface of the processing frame 1 is equipped with a control panel, which is electrically connected to the drive motor and the dispersing roller 44.
[0033] There are two support rods 42, which are located on the left and right sides of the surface of the rotating rod 41, respectively.
[0034] The dispersing roller 44 is connected to the support rod 42 at both ends and is equipped with a micro motor to realize the rotation of the dispersing roller. This allows the tea leaves to be rotated and dispersed as they are flattened by the pressure plate, rolled upwards, and fall downwards, thus achieving uniform and effective flattening of the tea leaves.
[0035] The surface of the dispersing roller 44 is fitted with staggered thin rods 441.
[0036] The thin rod 441 is made of rubber to prevent damage to the tea leaves when breaking them up.
[0037] The surface of the fixing rod 45 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 451, which cooperate with the limiting clip 47.
[0038] The end of the limiting clip 47 connected to the adjusting sleeve 46 is rotatably connected, and the end connected to the fixing rod 45 is detachably and movably fitted. The limiting clip 47 and the positioning hole 451 are movably fitted, and the force applied to flattening the tea leaves can be adjusted as needed.
[0039] The thin rods 441 are arranged in groups of three and are installed on the surface of the dispersing roller 44 in a staggered structure to make the tea leaves be rolled upward during the flattening process.
[0040] The specific implementation principle is as follows: the pressure plate 48 is adjusted according to the flattening pressure required for the tea leaves, and the adjusting sleeve 46 and the fixing rod 45 are adjusted to the appropriate position and then fixed with the limiting clip 47 and the positioning hole 451.
[0041] The tea leaves that need to be flattened are put into the processing frame 1. The drive motor 3 and the micro motor are started through the control panel. The flattening structure 4 rotates under the action of the drive motor 3. The rotating rod 41 drives the thin rod 441 connected to it to break up the falling tea leaves, so as to prevent the tea leaves from falling in a pile-up manner, which would cause uneven force during flattening and some parts to be over-flattened.
[0042] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the scope of the invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
[0043] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
