Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scenting technology for jasmine tea, specifically a device for removing flowers after scenting pomelo jasmine tea. Background Technology

[0002] The processing of scented tea is complex, involving dozens of steps, including fresh flower care, tea and flower mixing, scenting, ventilation, piling, flower removal, baking, cooling, transfer to another scenting or flower enhancement, and even piling and packaging. The scenting process requires manual mixing of tea and flowers, manual ventilation and piling, and relying on the experience of personnel to judge the degree of processing. The transfer between each process is still mostly done manually. Among them, flower removal is the operation of separating the flowers and tea after scenting using a sieving machine. The flower removal operation requires that the wet tea leaves separated from the sieving should not contain flower residue, and the flower residue should not contain tea leaves.

[0003] Authorization announcement number CN216983446U discloses a scenting device for tea. This device primarily separates fresh flowers and tea leaves using connecting pipes, facilitating separation after scenting. It also avoids tea leaves further from the scenting inlet absorbing excessive amounts of floral fragrance, thus preventing them from absorbing less fragrance. This achieves uniform scenting, resulting in a more even concentration of floral fragrance in the same batch of scented tea, thereby improving the quality of the tea product. However, in actual use, the device still has the following drawbacks:

[0004] The aforementioned patent mainly achieves uniform scenting of tea by separating fresh flowers and tea leaves, allowing the tea leaves to absorb more floral fragrance substances. However, after scenting, the tea needs to undergo a flower removal process. When the tea leaves and flowers are sieved, the flowers tend to adhere to the surface of the tea leaves. Furthermore, the scented tea leaves have a certain degree of moisture, which further affects the uniformity and efficiency of the flower removal process. Before flower removal, it is difficult to cool and dry the wet tea leaves evenly, and the sieving of flowers and tea leaves can easily lead to rapid temperature loss, thereby affecting the quality of the tea. This increases the difficulty of temperature control during the flower removal process and reduces the overall quality of the scented tea. Utility Model Content

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides an embodiment of a pomelo flower tea scenting and flower removal device, comprising a box body 1 and a sieving trough 5. A connecting pipe 2 is provided on one side of the box body 1, a drive motor 3 is installed on the top of the box body 1, a rotating turntable 6 is fitted inside the top of the box body 1, an external gear ring 7 is provided on the outer side of the turntable 6, a rotating shaft 8 is provided at the output end of the drive motor 3, a gear 4 that meshes with the external gear ring 7 is provided on the top of the outer side of the rotating shaft 8, a receiving trough 14 is provided at the bottom of the box body 1, and the receiving trough 14 is perpendicular to the sieving trough 5. Two sets of doors are provided at one end of the front of the box body 1. One set of doors is opposite to the sieving trough 5 and is provided with an observation window, and the other set of doors is opposite to the receiving trough 14, so as to facilitate the removal and recycling of the sieving trough 5 and the receiving trough 14 through the doors.

[0027] Mounting seats 10 are installed on both sides inside the box 1. An annular guide groove 9 is installed between the two sets of mounting seats 10. A rotating tube 12 is sleeved on one side inside the box 1. The connecting pipe 2 is a heating pipe. The connecting pipe 2 passes through the inside of the box 1 and extends to the inside of the rotating tube 12, so that hot gas can be supplied into the box 1 as needed during the flower raising process, so as to avoid the temperature being too low when the tea leaves and flowers are separated, which would affect the quality of the tea. The bottom of the outer side of the rotating shaft 8 and the outer side of the rotating tube 12 are provided with a bevel gear set 11 that meshes with each other.

[0028] The inner side of the annular guide groove 9 is provided with four sets of guide wheels 18 for limiting sliding. Four sets of mounting rods 19 are installed at the bottom edge of the turntable 6. Each set of mounting rods 19 is fitted with a sleeve 17 and a spring 16 elastically connected to the sleeve 17. The bottom of the four sets of mounting rods 19 is provided with a limiting plate, and the limiting plate is matched with the sleeve 17 to prevent the sleeve 17 from detaching from the outside of the mounting rod 19, thereby increasing the limiting effect of the structure. The top of the four sets of sleeves 17 are installed with mounting rings 21 on the side close to each other. The four sets of guide wheels 18 are connected to the sleeves 17. Four sets of fixing hooks 20 are connected to the outer edge of the screening groove 5, and the fixing hooks 20 are connected to the mounting rings 21.

[0029] A brush tube 13 is provided on the outside of the rotating tube 12, and a stirring assembly 15 is provided at the bottom of the turntable 6;

[0030] The annular guide groove 9 includes a protrusion 91, and four sets of guide wheels 18 slide within the annular guide groove 9 and the protrusion 91. This allows the four sets of guide wheels 18 to slide within the annular guide groove 9, driving the screening tank 5 to rotate centrifugally. When passing the protrusion 91, the screening tank 5 tilts and vibrates. An arc-shaped guide groove is provided on one side of a set of mounting bases 10, and the arc-shaped guide groove is opposite to the horizontal plane of the rotating tube 12. This allows the airflow introduced by the rotating tube 12 to quickly extend into the interior of the screening tank 5 under the guidance of the arc-shaped guide groove, baking and drying the wet blanks in the screening tank 5.

[0031] Example 1, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the brush tube 13 includes an adjusting sleeve, a fixing bolt, and a brush plate. The outer side of the rotating tube 12 is provided with a slidingly fitted adjusting sleeve, and the outer side of the adjusting sleeve is provided with a brush plate and a fixing bolt. The fixing bolt is fixedly connected to the adjusting sleeve and the rotating tube 12. One side of the bottom of the screening tank 5 is in contact with the brush plate. When it is necessary to clean the brush tube 13, the adjusting sleeve and the rotating tube 12 can be disconnected by rotating the fixing bolt. At this time, the adjusting sleeve can be pulled out from the rotating tube 12, thereby cleaning the brush plate on the outer side of the adjusting sleeve. With the brush tube 13 removed, the screening tank 5 can be easily disassembled and replaced in the housing 1. When reinstalling, it is easy to directly insert the adjusting sleeve into the outer side of the rotating tube 12 and move it. The fixing bolt is used to fix the position of the adjusting sleeve and the rotating tube 12 so that the bottom surface of the centrifugal rotating screening tank 5 can be scraped and cleaned by the rotating structure of the brush tube 13, thereby improving the screening efficiency of flower tea.

[0032] Example 2, as Figure 1-2As shown, the stirring assembly 15 includes a sleeve, a sleeve, a stirring rod, a positioning hole, and a positioning bolt. The sleeve is installed at the middle position of the bottom of the turntable 6, and a sleeve with a sliding fit is fitted on the outside of the sleeve. The stirring rod is located at the bottom of the sleeve. Positioning holes are opened at the top and bottom of the sleeve at the bottom of the turntable 6, and a positioning bolt that is fixedly fitted to the positioning hole is fitted at the top of one end of the sleeve. By setting a stirring rod that is easy to lift and lower, after the screening tank 5 is connected to the mounting ring 21 through two sets of fixing hooks 20, the sleeve can be pulled down on the outside of the sleeve according to the stirring requirements, so that the stirring rod can be extended to the inside of the screening tank 5. Then, the sleeve is fixed to the positioning hole by the positioning screw, thereby fixing the stirring rod. This facilitates the stirring rod to stir the flower tea in the screening tank 5 in conjunction with the overall rotation of the turntable 6, thereby improving the screening efficiency, increasing the separation rate of tea leaves and flower material, and improving the cooling and heat dissipation efficiency.

[0033] Working principle: The pomelo flower tea is scented in a flower-removing device after processing;

[0034] After the pomelo blossom tea is scented, during the flower removal process, the scented blossoms and tea leaves are placed into the sieving trough 5. The sieving trough 5 is then connected to four sets of mounting rings 21 via two sets of fixing hooks 20, thus suspending the sieving trough 5 entirely within the housing 1. Next, the drive motor 3 starts, causing the rotating shaft 8 to rotate. This causes the rotating shaft 8 to engage with the gear 4 and the external gear ring 7, resulting in the rotation of the turntable 6. Simultaneously, the rotation of the turntable 6 causes the four sets of mounting rods 19 and the outer sleeve 17 to rotate synchronously under the limiting guidance of the four sets of guide wheels 18 and the annular guide groove 9. This centrifugal rotation of the sieving trough 5 performs the sieving process. By positioning the protrusion 91, it is possible for the sleeve 17 and spring 16 to adaptively extend and retract on the outside of the mounting rod 19 when any of the four sets of guide wheels 18 contact the protrusion 91. This allows the sleeve 17 to drive the connected mounting ring 21 and fixing hook 20 to lift the inclined surface of the sieve 5, causing the sieve 5 to tilt to one side. This allows the flower material and tea cake in the sieve 5 to turn over. The intermittent vibration is formed by the structure of the four sets of guide wheels 18 and the protrusion 91, which greatly improves the efficiency of flower tea picking and promotes the separation rate and cooling rate of flower material and tea cake.

[0035] When the screening tank 5 is performing centrifugal vibration screening, the rotation of the rotating shaft 8 synchronously drives the bevel gear set 11 to mesh, causing the rotating tube 12 to rotate. Then, the rotating tube 12 drives the brush tube 13 to scrape and clean the bottom surface of the screening tank 5, further improving the screening rate of the flower tea. Finally, the flower material screened and filtered from the screening tank 5 is placed into the receiving tank 14, and the tea leaves are collected in the screening tank 5, which facilitates the recycling and processing of the material after the flower tea is opened, improving the functionality and efficiency of the flower tea opening process.
