[0002] Tea, commonly known as tea, was later used as a food and medicine, and gradually developed into a popular beverage. Tea generally consists of the leaves and buds of the tea tree. Tea contains catechins, cholesterol, caffeine, inositol, folic acid, and pantothenic acid, which are beneficial to health. Tea beverages have now become one of the world's three major beverages. The process of processing fresh tea leaves into various semi-finished or finished tea products can be divided into primary processing, refining, reprocessing, and deep processing, depending on the processing method.
[0003] In the initial processing of tea, drying equipment is needed to dry the tea leaves for subsequent processing. Currently, most tea drying equipment uses heating mechanisms in conjunction with turning mechanisms, which can easily cause tea breakage and affect the processing quality. Therefore, we propose a solution based on a tea drying device to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
