Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing technology, and more specifically, to a tea raw material processing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Tea is a common beverage with a large market demand. When processing tea, freshly picked tea leaves are usually mixed with impurities such as mud. The tea leaves need to be cleaned before they can be processed.
[0003] Common tea cleaning equipment cleans tea leaves by spraying water. However, the cleaning structure is generally simple, providing only a basic rinse and cleaning only the top surface of the tea leaves. The cleaning effect on the bottom surface of the tea leaves is limited, resulting in limited cleaning effectiveness. Moreover, when loading tea leaves into the equipment, they tend to clump together, affecting the cleaning effect. Workers need to spread the tea leaves out and collect them after cleaning, which is quite cumbersome. In addition, tea leaves absorb a lot of water after cleaning and need to be dried. However, tea leaves that have absorbed a lot of water require a long time to reduce their moisture content to a suitable level, resulting in low work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0034] In this embodiment, the equipment box 1 provides space. When cleaning the tea leaves, the tea leaves are poured onto the screen plate 5, water is supplied to the cleaning nozzle 8, and water is sprayed onto the tea leaves for cleaning. During the cleaning process, the vibration motor 6 provides power to the support frame 4, causing the support frame 4 to vibrate with the screen plate 5 under the support of the vibration spring. This causes the tea leaves to vibrate frequently, separating them from impurities during cleaning. The tea leaves remain on the screen plate 5, while the impurities pass through the screen plate 5 and fall into the equipment box 1.
[0035] More specifically, when tea leaves are placed on the screen plate 5, the drive motor 10 controls the rotation of the drive screw 9, which cooperates with the movable block 11 to provide power for the movable block 11 to move.

[0051] Specifically, the guide frame 30 guides the falling tea leaves, allowing them to stably enter the spin-drying net cylinder 18.
[0052] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment:
[0053] When using the equipment, connect it to an external power source. The equipment box 1 provides space. To clean the tea leaves, pour the tea leaves onto the screen plate 5. Water is supplied through the water pipe 24 and divided into multiple streams through the water distribution pipe 25. The water is then sprayed from multiple cleaning nozzles 8 onto the tea leaves for cleaning. During the cleaning process, the vibration motor 6 powers the support frame 4, causing it to vibrate along with the screen plate 5 under the support of the vibration spring. This frequent vibration of the tea leaves separates them from impurities during cleaning. The tea leaves remain on the screen plate 5, while impurities pass through and fall into the equipment box 1. A protective net 23 provides secondary protection to prevent tea leaves from falling from both ends of the screen plate 5. The wastewater flowing from the equipment box 1 is received and filtered through the filter box 26. Under the negative pressure of the return pump 27, the filtered water is returned to the water pipe 24 for continuous cleaning.
[0054] When tea leaves are placed on the screen plate 5, the drive motor 10 controls the rotation of the drive screw 9, which cooperates with the movable block 11 to provide power for the movable block 11 to move. The movable block 11 is guided by the cooperation of the guide rod 28 and the guide hole 29, so that the movable block 11 slides stably. The movable block 11 moves with the scraper 13 through the telescopic push rod 12. With the support of the telescopic push rod 12, there is a certain space between the scraper 13 and the screen plate 5. When the scraper 13 moves, it contacts the accumulated tea leaves through the push plate 14, pushing the accumulated tea leaves flat, making the tea leaves easier to clean. After the tea leaves are cleaned, the telescopic push rod 12 is controlled to lower the scraper 13 to contact the screen plate 5. The movement of the scraper 13 is controlled again. Through the cooperation of the scraper 13 and the push plate 14, the tea leaves are pushed away from the screen plate 5.
[0055] After washing, the tea leaves are pushed into the spin-drying box 15 and guided by the guide frame 30, so that the tea leaves fall steadily into the spin-drying net cylinder 18. The rotating motor 16 provides power, causing the rotating seat 17 to rotate with the spin-drying net cylinder 18. The spin-drying net cylinder 18 rotates with the tea leaves inside. Through its own mesh structure, a large amount of water is spun out and separated from the tea leaves. The rotating seat 17 is protected by the insulating ring 19, so that the spun water flows outside the insulating ring 19 and is discharged through the drain pipe 20. The spin-drying net cylinder 18 can be separated from the rotating seat 17 by the cooperation of the connecting groove and the spline groove 22. The guide frame 30 can be disassembled to remove the spin-drying net cylinder 18, making it easy to take out the spun-dried tea leaves.
