[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0030] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This embodiment provides a technical solution: a trough pot structure for tea leaf shaping, including a fixed base 1 and a discharge mechanism 2. The discharge mechanism 2 is located inside the fixed base 1. A rotating seat 202 is rotatably connected inside the fixed base 1. The two sides of the rotating seat 202 are connected to the fixed base 1 through bearings. The top of the rotating seat 202 is evenly provided with processing grooves 203, which can facilitate heating of the tea leaves. An equipment box 201 is provided below one end of the fixed base 1. The connection method between the equipment box 201 and the fixed base 1 is the prior art, such as welding. A servo motor 214 is fixedly connected to the top of the equipment box 201. A lead screw 213 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 214. The servo motor 214 drives the lead screw 213 to rotate. The servo motor 214 consists of a stator and a rotor. The stator winding is supplied with three-phase alternating current to generate a rotating magnetic field. The rotor rotates due to electromagnetic force, thereby driving the output end to rotate. The above is the disclosed technology, and will not be described in detail below. When selecting, the appropriate model should be selected according to the actual needs.

[0031] The lead screw 213 has a threaded block 212 externally threadedly connected to its top. A movable rod 210 is rotatably connected to the top of the threaded block 212, providing load-bearing capacity. A connecting rod 211 is rotatably connected to the top of the movable rod 210. The top of the connecting rod 211 is slidably connected to the bottom of the rotating seat 202. A sliding groove for the connecting rod 211 to slide is provided at the bottom of the rotating seat 202. A movable block is rotatably connected to the top of the connecting rod 211, and this movable block is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. In other words, when the movable rod 210 is subjected to force and moves upward, it will push the rotating seat 202 to move synchronously under the action of the movable block and the sliding groove. (See reference for details.) Figure 5 A fixed rod 209 is fixedly connected to the top of the equipment box 201. The inside of the fixed rod 209 is hollow. The lead screw 213 passes through the inside of the movable rod 210. The inside of the fixed rod 209 is hollow. The diameter of the fixed rod 209 is smaller than the inner diameter of the movable rod 210, so that the movable rod 210 can move up and down inside the fixed rod 209. The fixed rod 209 is inserted into the inside of the movable rod 210.

[0032] The effect achieved by the entire first embodiment is as follows: by using the operation of the servo motor 214, the lead screw 213 can be driven to rotate, causing the threaded block 212 on the lead screw 213 to move upward, thereby driving the movable rod 210 to move upward, which can tilt the rotating seat 202, making it easier for the tea leaves inside the rotating seat 202 to slide down from the inside of the rotating seat 202 under the action of gravity along with the processing groove 203, thus improving the safety of the device.

[0033] Example 2: A heating groove 208 is provided at the top of the interior of the fixing base 1. Heating tubes 207 are evenly distributed inside the heating groove 208. In the prior art, the heating tubes 207 are equipped with a temperature control device. During operation, current passes through the internal resistance wire, and heat is generated based on the current heating effect for heating. When the temperature reaches the preset upper limit of the temperature control device, the temperature control device will cut off the circuit, and the heating tubes 207 will stop heating. When the temperature drops to the preset lower limit, the temperature control device will reconnect the circuit, and the heating tubes 207 will start heating again, thereby maintaining the heated object within the set temperature range. Inside, a fixing frame 204 is provided at the top end of the processing tank 203 away from the equipment box 201. The fixing frame 204 is connected to the fixing seat 1 by a snap-fit, which can easily fix the fixing seat 1. A handle 205 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the top of the fixing frame 204. The handle 205 is provided with a heat insulation sleeve made of fiberglass material, which can easily protect the workers. A baffle plate 206 is evenly fixedly connected to the bottom end of the fixing frame 204. The baffle plate 206 is set in a semi-circular shape and is inserted into the interior of the processing tank 203.

[0034] The effect achieved by the entire second embodiment is that by applying external force to deform the buckle on the fixing frame 204 and disengage it from the slot at the top of the fixing seat 1, the baffle plate 206 can be easily removed from the inside of the processing tank 203, thereby facilitating the discharge of tea leaves from the inside of the processing tank 203.

[0035] Example 3: A fan 215 is fixedly connected to the end of the equipment box 201 away from the fixed base 1. The fan 215 is the prior art. It works by using an internal drive motor, which can drive the fan blades at the output end to rotate, thereby generating wind. The equipment box 201 is provided with heat dissipation holes 216 evenly on the end near the fan 215, which can facilitate the circulation of air inside the equipment box 201.

[0036] The effect achieved by the entire embodiment 3 is as follows: by using the operation of fan 215, the heat inside the equipment box 201 can be discharged through heat dissipation hole 216, which can reduce the temperature inside the equipment box 201 and extend the service life of servo motor 214.

[0037] Working principle: First, turn on the power, put the tea leaves to be processed into the processing tank 203 at the top of the rotating seat 202, and start the heating tube 207 with the control switch. With the continuous operation of the heating tube 207, the tea leaves inside the processing tank 203 can be stably maintained in a suitable temperature range, thereby realizing the fixation and shaping of the tea leaves.

[0038] Secondly, after the tea processing is completed, the servo motor 214 can drive the lead screw 213 to rotate, causing the threaded block 212 on the lead screw 213 to move upward, thereby driving the movable rod 210 to move upward, which can tilt the rotating seat 202. This allows the tea inside the rotating seat 202 to slide down from inside the rotating seat 202 under the action of gravity along with the processing groove 203, thus improving the safety of the device.

[0039] Finally, when the servo motor 214 is working, the fan 215 can dissipate the heat inside the equipment box 201 through the heat dissipation hole 216, which can reduce the temperature inside the equipment box 201 and extend the service life of the servo motor 214.

For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable 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; it can be a connection within two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0041] 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.
