Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kneading device technology, and in particular to a tea processing kneading device. Background Technology

[0002] Tea, commonly known as tea, generally includes the leaves and buds of the tea plant. Originating in China, tea comes in many varieties. During the tea production process, the tea leaves are usually rolled, and this process typically uses a tea rolling device, also known as a tea rolling machine. This device is an indispensable piece of equipment in the tea processing. Its main working principle is to use a mechanical device to roll the tea leaves, causing the cell tissues of the tea leaves to break and the tea juice to be released, thereby improving the taste and quality of the tea.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222366987U, a tea processing and kneading device is proposed. Three locking components are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the kneading frame, and the kneading body has mounting grooves corresponding to the positions of the three locking components. The three locking components connect the kneading frame and the kneading body, allowing the kneading frame to be detached from the kneading body after kneading the tea leaves. This facilitates easy cleaning of the kneading frame and, to a certain extent, ensures the quality of the tea leaves subsequently kneaded. This application document facilitates the design and maintenance of the kneading frame. The device is disassembled and cleaned, but in actual use, the degree of kneading cannot be adjusted according to different tea varieties and the growth stage of the tea leaves. For example, large-leaf teas require heavy kneading, while small and medium-leaf teas require light kneading. At the same time, tender buds or spring buds require light kneading, while mature leaves or summer and autumn teas require heavy kneading. However, the kneading force in the application document is always the same during use, and the degree of kneading cannot be adjusted according to the tea variety or growth stage, which greatly reduces the practicality of the kneading device. Therefore, a tea processing kneading device is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," "outer," "front end," "rear end," "both ends," "one end," and "the other end," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," and "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, such as welding, riveting, or bonding; it can also be a detachable connection, such as threaded connection, keyed connection, or pin connection; or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; or it can be a connection within 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.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a tea processing kneading device, including a kneading disc 1, a fixed frame 2 above the kneading disc 1, a circumferential mechanism 3 on the outer side of the kneading disc 1, the output end of the circumferential mechanism 3 being connected to the fixed frame 2, and a kneading mechanism 4 being arranged inside the fixed frame 2.

[0027] In this utility model, tea leaves can be placed on the kneading disc 1. After the tea leaves are placed, the circumferential mechanism 3 can drive the fixed frame 2 to perform circumferential motion. The fixed frame 2 will drive the kneading mechanism 4 to perform circumferential motion, and the kneading mechanism 4 will perform kneading operation on the tea leaves.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the kneading mechanism 4 includes a lifting block 41, two vertical plates 42, a top plate 43, a drive assembly 44, a limiting assembly 45, a kneading block 46, and a disassembly assembly 47. The lifting block 41 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed frame 2. The two vertical plates 42 are both located on the top of the fixed frame 2 and are symmetrically distributed. The top plate 43 is located on the top of the two vertical plates 42. The drive assembly 44 is located on the top of the top plate 43. The output end of the drive assembly 44 is connected to the lifting block 41. The limiting assembly 45 is located on the outside of the lifting block 41. The kneading block 46 is located at the bottom of the lifting block 41. The disassembly assembly 47 is located on the outside of the kneading block 46. The lifting block 41 is connected to the kneading block 46 through the disassembly assembly 47.

[0029] It should be noted that when the fixed frame 2 moves in a circular motion, the fixed frame 2 will drive the lifting block 41 to move in a circular motion. Under the action of the disassembly and assembly component 47, the lifting block 41 will drive the kneading block 46 to move in a circular motion. The kneading operation of the tea leaves is performed by the circular motion of the kneading block 46. Before kneading, the lifting block 41 can be driven to move up or down by the two vertical plates 42, the top plate 43, the drive component 44, and the limiting component 45. Under the action of the disassembly and assembly component 47, the lifting block 41 will drive the kneading block 46 to move up or down, thereby adjusting the distance between the bottom of the kneading block 46 and the inner bottom wall of the kneading disc 1. This allows adjustment of the degree of kneading of the tea leaves by the kneading block 46 during the circular motion. After kneading is completed, the kneading block 46 can be disassembled by the disassembly and assembly component 47, so that the kneading block 46 can be cleaned.

[0030] In an optional embodiment, the drive assembly 44 includes a first threaded groove 441, a first threaded rod 442, and a throttle 443. The first threaded groove 441 is formed on the top of the lifting block 41. The first threaded rod 442 is rotatably connected to the top of the top plate 43 via a bearing and extends into the interior of the first threaded groove 441. The first threaded rod 442 is threadedly connected to the first threaded groove 441. The throttle 443 is located on the top of the first threaded rod 442.

[0031] It should be noted that when the throttle 443 is turned, the throttle 443 will drive the first threaded rod 442 to rotate. Under the action of the limiting component 45, the lifting block 41 will not rotate, so the first threaded groove 441 will not rotate. When the first threaded rod 442 rotates, under the action of the thread thrust of the first threaded groove 441, the first threaded groove 441 will move up or down, thereby causing the lifting block 41 to move up or down.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, the limiting component 45 includes two limiting grooves 451 and two limiting blocks 452. The two limiting grooves 451 are both opened on the inner side of the fixed frame 2 and are symmetrically distributed. The top and bottom of the two limiting grooves 451 are connected to the outside. The two limiting blocks 452 are both located on the outer side of the lifting block 41 and are slidably connected to the inside of the two limiting grooves 451 respectively.

[0033] It should be noted that the lifting block 41 can be limited by the two limiting grooves 451 and the two limiting blocks 452, which can ensure the stability of the lifting block 41 when moving up or down, and also prevent the lifting block 41 from rotating.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, the disassembly assembly 47 includes a connecting block 471, a second threaded groove 472, a second threaded rod 473, a knob 474, and a positioning module 475. The connecting block 471 is located on the outside of the kneading block 46, the second threaded groove 472 is located on the outside of the lifting block 41, the second threaded rod 473 is located on the right side of the connecting block 471 and extends into the interior of the second threaded groove 472, the second threaded rod 473 is threadedly connected to the second threaded groove 472, the knob 474 is located at the right end of the second threaded rod 473, and the positioning module 475 is located on the top of the kneading block 46.

[0035] It should be noted that after kneading is completed, rotating the knob 474 will cause the second threaded rod 473 to rotate. When the second threaded rod 473 disengages from the second threaded groove 472, the connecting block 471 and the kneading block 46 can be disassembled, making it convenient to clean the kneading block 46. After cleaning, the kneading block 46 is installed through the positioning module 475. After installation, rotating the knob 474 in the opposite direction will cause the second threaded rod 473 to rotate in the opposite direction. When the second threaded rod 473 is threadedly connected to the second threaded groove 472, the connecting block 471 and the kneading block 46 can be fixed.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, the positioning module 475 includes two positioning blocks and two positioning grooves. The two positioning grooves are both located at the bottom of the lifting block 41, and the two positioning blocks are both located at the top of the kneading block 46. The two positioning blocks are slidably connected to the inside of the two positioning grooves respectively.

[0037] It should be noted that the two positioning blocks and two positioning grooves can be used to position the kneading block 46 during installation, ensuring that the kneading block 46 corresponds to the position of the lifting block 41, and also ensuring that the second threaded rod 473 corresponds to the position of the second threaded groove 472.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, there are two sets of disassembly and assembly components 47, both of which are located on the outside of the kneading block 46 and are symmetrically distributed, thereby ensuring the stability of the kneading block 46 during installation.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the circumferential mechanism 3 includes a motor, a second fixed block, a connecting plate, and a first fixed block. By starting the motor, the fixed frame 2 can be made to move in a circular motion under the action of the second fixed block, the connecting plate, and the first fixed block, thereby making the kneading mechanism 4 move in a circular motion.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the kneading disc 1 is provided with a feeding mechanism 5 inside, three evenly distributed support columns 6 are provided at the bottom of the kneading disc 1, and a controller is provided on the outside of the kneading disc 1.

[0041] It should be noted that the feeding mechanism 5 includes bolts, a support plate, and an opening and closing plate. After the kneading work is completed, the kneaded tea leaves can be gathered onto the closing plate, and then the fixing bolts can be loosened to facilitate the collection of the kneaded tea leaves.

[0042] In addition, the kneading disc 1 is stably supported by three support columns 6, and the circumferential mechanism 3 is electrically connected to the controller, which can control the circumferential mechanism 3.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
