Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing technology, and in particular to a tea cake pressing device for tea processing. Background Technology
[0002] Tea processing is an industry with a long history and continuous development. Tea cakes, as a special form of tea, hold an important position among many tea categories, such as Pu'er tea and black tea. Tea cakes have advantages such as being easy to store, convenient to transport, and having a unique flavor, making them very popular with consumers.
[0003] Traditional tea cake pressing devices mostly use a single mold for pressing. In this mode, the tea raw material is first put into the mold, then pressed, and the tea cake is taken out after pressing. The workflow is linear. When the mold is in the pressing state, it is not possible to perform feeding or unloading operations at the same time. This means that during the entire production cycle, the mold is in a non-productive waiting state for a considerable period of time, resulting in low production efficiency of traditional tea cake pressing devices. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a tea cake pressing device for tea processing.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a tea cake pressing device for tea processing, comprising a pressing table, an equipment plate fixedly connected to the pressing table, a first cylinder fixedly connected to the equipment plate, an upper mold fixedly connected to the piston rod of the first cylinder, a high-efficiency structure provided on the pressing table, the high-efficiency structure mainly consisting of a first motor, a rotating table rotatably connected to the pressing table via bearings, the rotating table being driven to rotate by the first motor, and three lower molds fixedly connected to the rotating table.
[0006] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: Tea leaves are placed into a lower mold, and the rotating table is rotated so that the tea leaves are positioned below the upper mold. The first cylinder is activated, and its piston rod drives the upper mold to descend, pressing the tea leaves. During the pressing process, tea leaves are placed into another lower mold. After pressing, the tea leaves in the next lower mold are pressed. At this point, the worker can remove the pressed tea cake. The output end of the first motor is connected to the rotating table through a reducer and a coupling. Activating the first motor drives the rotating table to rotate. The first motor is a servo motor, and the rotation angle can be controlled by an encoder. This avoids the situation where the mold is in a non-productive waiting state for a considerable period of time during the entire production cycle, which leads to the low production efficiency of traditional tea cake pressing devices.
[0007] Preferably, a second cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower mold, and a push plate is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the second cylinder.
[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: after pressing is completed, the second cylinder is activated, and the piston rod of the second cylinder drives the push plate to rise and lift the tea cake, making it easier to unload.
[0009] Preferably, the pressing table has an annular groove, and three limiting blocks are slidably connected in the annular groove, the limiting blocks being fixedly connected to the rotating table.
[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that the three limiting blocks slide within the annular groove, making the rotation process of the rotating table more stable.

Starting the second motor can drive the weighing scale to rotate. The second motor is a servo motor, and the rotation angle can be controlled by the encoder. Starting the second motor drives the weighing scale to rotate, so that the tea leaves fall into the guide cylinder and then enter the lower mold.
[0013] Preferably, the pressing table is provided with a softening structure, which is mainly composed of a heating cylinder. The heating cylinder is fixedly connected to the pressing table, a heating tube is fixedly connected in the heating cylinder, and a gas guide pipe is fixedly connected to the heating cylinder. The gas guide pipe is fixedly connected to the material guide cylinder.
[0014] The above components achieve the following effects: water is injected into the heating cylinder, the heating tube is activated to heat the water, and the steam will enter the feed cylinder through the air guide tube to soften the tea leaves. A moisture-proof pad is installed at the bottom of the weighing scale to prevent water vapor from damaging the weighing scale.
[0015] Preferably, an insulating sleeve is fixedly fitted onto the air duct, and the insulating sleeve is made of sponge material.
[0016] The above-mentioned components achieve the following effects: the insulation jacket can keep the steam in the gas duct warm, prevent the rapid loss of heat, and the distance of the gas duct is very short.
[0017] Preferably, the feed cylinder is provided with a groove, and a filter plate is slidably connected in the groove.
[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that the filter plate can block the tea leaves while allowing water vapor to pass through. After softening for a period of time, the filter plate is slid to allow the tea leaves to fall.
[0019] Preferably, a third cylinder is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and the piston rod of the third cylinder is fixedly connected to the filter plate.
[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: starting the third cylinder, the piston rod of the third cylinder can drive the filter plate to move, making the operation more convenient.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, by setting up an efficient structure, tea leaves are placed into a lower mold, and the rotating table is rotated so that the tea leaves are located below the upper mold. The first cylinder is started, and the piston rod of the first cylinder drives the upper mold to descend, pressing the tea leaves. During the pressing process, tea leaves are placed into another lower mold. After pressing is completed, the tea leaves in the next lower mold are pressed. At this time, the worker can take out the pressed tea cake. The output end of the first motor is connected to the rotating table through a reducer and a coupling. Starting the first motor can drive the rotating table to rotate. Moreover, the first motor is a servo motor, and the rotation angle can be controlled by an encoder. This avoids the situation where the mold is in a non-productive waiting state for a considerable part of the entire production cycle, which leads to the low production efficiency of traditional tea cake pressing devices.

Three lower molds 2 are fixedly connected to the rotating table 62. Tea leaves are placed into one of the lower molds 2, and the rotating table 62 is rotated so that the tea leaves are positioned below the upper mold 5. The first cylinder 4 is activated, and the piston rod of the first cylinder 4 drives the upper mold 5 to descend, pressing the tea leaves.

The leaves are pressed, and the pressed tea cake can then be removed by the worker. The output of the first motor 61 is connected to the rotating table 62 via a reducer and coupling. Starting the first motor 61 drives the rotating table 62 to rotate. The first motor 61 is a servo motor, and the rotation angle can be controlled by an encoder, thus avoiding the situation where the mold is in a non-productive waiting state for a considerable part of the entire production cycle, which leads to the low production efficiency of traditional tea cake pressing devices. A second cylinder 63 is fixedly connected in the lower mold 2, and a push plate 64 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the second cylinder 63. After pressing is completed... Then, the second cylinder 63 is activated. The piston rod of the second cylinder 63 drives the push plate 64 to rise, lifting the tea cake for easy unloading.

When the appropriate weight is reached, the output end of the second motor 610 is connected to the weighing scale 69 through a reducer and a coupling. Starting the second motor 610 can drive the weighing scale 69 to rotate. The second motor 610 is a servo motor, and the rotation angle can be controlled by an encoder.

Starting second motor 610 drives weighing scale 69 to rotate. Second motor 610 is a servo motor, and its rotation angle can be controlled by an encoder. Starting second motor 610 drives weighing scale 69 to rotate, causing the tea leaves to fall into guide cylinder 611 and then into lower mold 2. Water is injected into heating cylinder 71, and heating tube 72 is activated to heat the water, producing steam. The tea leaves are softened by entering the feed cylinder 611 through the air guide pipe 73.
