DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] Please refer to Figs. 1 to 3 A cleaning device for tea production, mainly through a bubble cleaning machine to clean tea, the bubble cleaning machine is a conveying type bubble cleaning machine, with a conveyor 2, which is a common bubble cleaning machine on the market; the bubble cleaning machine also contains a cleaning tank 1 and a spraying mechanism 3, the cleaning tank 1 is provided with a material guide plate 17 to facilitate the input of tea. The conveyor 2 is a climbing conveyor, which is divided into a feeding section, a climbing section and a discharging section along its running direction. The conveyor belt of the conveyor 2 is a mesh belt conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is provided with a baffle. The feeding section is installed in the cleaning tank 1, and the discharging section is located outside the cleaning tank 1. A cleaning and drying mechanism is arranged on the rack of the discharging section of the conveyor 2 to perform secondary cleaning and preliminary drying of the tea. A collection mechanism is arranged on the rack at the end of the discharging section of the conveyor 2 to collect and re-dry the tea, and to sterilize the tea to ensure the quality of the tea.

[0020] Specifically,

[0021] The collection mechanism is composed of a support frame 4, a collection frame 5, a first driving part 6 and a lamp group 7. The support frame 4 is fixed on the rack of the conveyor 2 by welding or bolts. A sliding groove is formed in the support frame 4, and a sliding block is arranged on the collection frame 5. The sliding block and the sliding groove are in sliding cooperation to enable the collection frame 5 to slide in the support frame 4. The first driving part 6 is arranged on one side of the support frame 4, and the first driving part 6 is connected with the collection frame 5. The first driving part 6 drives the collection frame 5 to move. The lamp group 7 is composed of a plurality of ultraviolet lamps and infrared lamps arranged in the support frame 4 in a staggered manner. The installation distance of the lamps does not affect each other.

[0022] The cleaning and drying mechanism is composed of a secondary cleaning assembly, a wiping assembly and a blowing assembly, and is arranged on the rack of the conveyor 2 outside the cleaning tank 1 and sequentially along the running direction of the conveyor 2. The secondary cleaning assembly comprises first supporting legs 8 arranged on both sides of the rack of the conveyor 2, a water pipe 9 arranged on the first supporting legs 8, and first spray heads 10 arranged on the water pipe 9. The first spray heads 10 are equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the water pipe 9. The water pipe 9 is connected with a water source, and water is sprayed from the first spray heads 10 to clean the tea leaves. The wiping assembly comprises a door-shaped frame 11 arranged on the rack of the conveyor 2 and located on one side of the first supporting legs 8, a brush plate 12 vertically slidingly arranged on the door-shaped frame 11, and a second driving member 13 arranged on the door-shaped frame 11. The second driving member 13 is connected with the brush plate 12 to drive the brush plate 12 to vertically move. The brush plate 12 is composed of a brush plate and a soft brush. The cleaned tea leaves pass through the brush plate 12, and the water on the tea leaves is preliminarily wiped off by the brush plate 12. The second driving member 13 is used to adjust the height of the brush plate 12. The blowing assembly comprises second supporting legs 14 arranged on the rack of the conveyor 2 and located on one side of the door-shaped frame 11, air pipes 15 arranged on the second supporting legs 14, and second spray heads 16 arranged on the air pipes 15. The second spray heads 16 are also equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the air pipes 15. The air pipes 15 are connected with a blower, an axial flow fan or other equipment, and air is sprayed from the second spray heads 16 to dry the tea leaves. It should be noted that the air volume should be controlled to prevent the tea leaves from being blown away.

[0023] The first driving member 6 and the second driving member 13 are both electric push rods, and both have self-locking functions. In particular, the first driving member 6 is a multi-section push rod. The first driving member 6, the second driving member 13 and the driving motor of the conveyor 2 in the device are all connected with a PLC controller. The PLC controller controls the moving speed of the conveyor belt, and the extension amount and extension speed of the output shafts of the first driving member 6 and the second driving member 13.

[0024] The working process and principle of the device are as follows:

[0025] When the tea leaves are cleaned, the water pipe 9 is connected with a water source, the air pipe 15 is connected with a blower, a fan or other equipment, and the tea leaves are put into the cleaning tank 1 of the bubble cleaning machine from the guide plate 17. Then, the tea leaves are cleaned. After the cleaning is completed, the conveyor 2 is started slowly, and the tea leaves are moved to the outside of the cleaning tank 1 by the conveyor 2.

[0026] When the tea leaves move to the position provided with the first spray head 10, the water sprayed by the first spray head 10 performs secondary cleaning on the tea leaves (the water flow should be controlled to prevent the tea leaves from being washed away). When the tea leaves continue to move to the position provided with the brush plate 12, the brush plate 12 preliminarily wipes off the water on the tea leaves and scrapes off the impurities possibly attached to the tea leaves. When the tea leaves move to the position provided with the second spray head 16, the wind blown by the second spray head 16 performs air drying on the tea leaves. Then, when the tea leaves continue to move to the end of the conveyor 2, the tea leaves fall into the collection frame 5, and the lamp group 7 is simultaneously started to perform drying and sterilization on the tea leaves in the collection frame 5. Then, the first driving member 6 is started to push out the collection frame 5 for collection by the staff.

[0027] In the initial state, the output shaft of the first driving member 6 is in the retracted state. When the tea leaves fall into the collection frame 5, the output shaft of the first driving member 6 slowly extends to slowly move the collection frame 5 to coincide with the support frame 4, so as to uniformly lay the tea leaves on the collection frame 5. After drying and sterilization, the output shaft of the first driving member 6 continues to extend to push out the collection frame 5 from the support frame 4, facilitating collection by the staff.
