Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea extraction technology, and in particular to a feeding device for the process of extracting flavor substances from tea. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of extracting flavor compounds from tea leaves, the tea leaves need to be conveyed from the upper feeding cylinder to the inlet of the screw conveyor. Due to the limitations of some equipment in this process, the vertical distance between the upper feeding cylinder and the screw conveyor inlet is approximately 6 meters. Currently, the tea leaves from the upper feeding cylinder fall directly into the screw conveyor inlet under their own weight, resulting in an excessively fast and uneven feeding speed. This easily causes blockages at the screw conveyor inlet, affecting the processing efficiency of extracting flavor compounds from the tea leaves. Utility Model Content

The output shaft of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft. The material leveling plates are evenly spaced around the circumference of the rotating shaft. The motor is located on the outer wall of the feeding body. The rotating shaft is horizontally rotated on the feeding body, and the material leveling plates are located in the middle of the feeding channel.
[0005] The material receiving area is the material feeding channel above the material leveling plate, and the material discharging area is the material discharging channel below the material leveling plate. At least one material dispersing plate is set in the material discharging area, and the material dispersing plate is set below the material leveling plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the motor is a geared motor.
[0007] Furthermore, the motor is a geared servo motor, and the system also includes a controller, with the motor and controller being electrically connected.
[0008] Furthermore, the uniform material plate is rectangular in shape, and its length is arranged along the length of the rotation axis.
[0009] Furthermore, the number of equalization plates is 4-6.
[0010] Furthermore, the cross-section of the material dispersing plate is an isosceles triangle;
[0011] The discharge area is equipped with three material dispersing plates, namely the first material dispersing plate, the second material dispersing plate and the third material dispersing plate. The first material dispersing plate and the second material dispersing plate are arranged side by side with intervals, and the third material dispersing plate is located directly above the first material dispersing plate and the second material dispersing plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the vertex angle of the isosceles triangle in the cross-section of the dispersion plate ranges from 90° to 120°.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a support frame, in which the material feeder is housed.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting up a material leveling component and setting up at least one material dispersing plate in the discharge area of the feeding channel, the tea material is dispersed and distributed by the material leveling component and the material dispersing plate, which effectively reduces the feeding speed of the tea material and improves the uniformity of the feeding material, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of the tea material causing blockage at the feed inlet of the screw conveyor; and the motor is a geared servo motor, and a controller is also included.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the feeding device of this utility model for the extraction of flavor substances from tea includes a feeding body 1, a feeding channel 11 that runs vertically through the middle of the feeding body 1, and a material leveling component 2. The material leveling component 2 includes a motor 21, a rotating shaft 22, and at least one material leveling plate 23. The output shaft of the motor 21 is connected to the rotating shaft 22. The material leveling plates 23 are evenly spaced around the rotating shaft 22. The motor 21 is mounted on the outer wall of the feeding body 1. The rotating shaft 22 is mounted horizontally on the feeding body 1, and the material leveling plates 23 are located in the middle of the feeding channel 11.
[0022] The material receiving channel 11 above the material leveling plate 23 is the material receiving area, and the material discharging channel below the material leveling plate 23 is the material discharging area. At least one material dispersing plate 3 is provided in the material discharging area, and the material dispersing plate 3 is located below the material leveling plate 23.
[0023] For example Figure 2 As shown, when using this feeding device, it is installed between the upper feeding cylinder 5 and the screw conveyor inlet. The receiving area is connected to the discharge port of the upper feeding cylinder 5, and the discharge area is connected to the screw conveyor inlet. Motor 21 operates, and the rotation of the output shaft of motor 21 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate, which in turn drives the uniform material plate 23 to rotate. During feeding, the tea material in the upper feeding cylinder 5 enters the receiving area through the discharge port of the upper feeding cylinder 5. Then, it is dispersed and slowed down by the uniform material plate 23, undergoing initial material distribution. Next, it enters the dispersing plate 3 for a second distribution and slowdown, finally entering the screw conveyor inlet. It is evident that this feeding device has a simple structure, effectively reducing the feeding speed of the tea material and improving the uniformity of the fed material, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of blockage at the screw conveyor inlet.
[0024] Specifically, motor 21 is preferably a geared motor, which reduces the speed of its output shaft, thereby reducing the speed of the rotating shaft 22 and the uniform plate 23, reducing damage to the tea materials, and the geared motor facilitates its arrangement. To improve the performance of the feeding device, motor 21 is a geared servo motor, and a controller is also included. Motor 21 is electrically connected to the controller, which automatically controls the speed of the motor according to the condition of the tea materials, further controlling the feeding speed of the tea materials.
[0025] To improve the performance of the uniform material plate 23, for example... Figure 3 As shown, the shape of the uniform material plate 23 is preferably rectangular, and the length direction of the uniform material plate 23 is arranged along the length direction of the rotating shaft 22; and the number of uniform material plates 23 is 4-6.
[0026] To improve the performance of the material dispersion plate 3, for example... Figure 4As shown, the cross-section of the dispersing material plate 3 is preferably an isosceles triangle; three dispersing material plates 3 are provided in the discharge area, namely the first dispersing material plate, the second dispersing material plate and the third dispersing material plate. The first dispersing material plate and the second dispersing material plate are arranged side by side with intervals, and the third dispersing material plate is located directly above the first dispersing material plate and the second dispersing material plate. The apex angle of the isosceles triangle in the cross-section of the dispersing material plate 3 is in the range of 90-120°.
[0027] To improve the overall strength of the feeding device and enhance its operational stability, for example... Figure 2 As shown, this utility model also includes a support frame 4, and the feed body 1 is mounted on the support frame 4. The support frame 4 is a steel component.
