Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea fermentation technology, and in particular to a stepped tea fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional tea fermentation equipment typically ferments tea in a uniform environment with consistent fermentation temperatures. However, during the long fermentation process, localized over-fermentation or under-fermentation may occur.

[0003] In summary, this application proposes a stepped tea fermentation device to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a stepped tea fermentation device that can solve the problems of traditional tea fermentation equipment, where tea is usually fermented in a uniform environment and at a uniform temperature, and where local over-fermentation or under-fermentation may occur during long-term fermentation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a stepped tea fermentation device, comprising a mounting base, a vibration component, and a swirling fermentation component. A fermentation box is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base. The vibration component is located above the mounting base, and the swirling fermentation component is located inside the fermentation box. The swirling fermentation component includes a partition plate, a temperature control device, a connecting pipe, and a heating pipe. Two sets of partition plates are fixedly connected inside the fermentation box and are distributed vertically. The partition plates divide the fermentation box into three cavities.

[0006] Preferably, the fermentation box has a feed inlet at the top, which facilitates the feeding of tea leaves.

[0007] Preferably, a humidification device is fixedly connected to the top inner side of the fermentation box, which facilitates the humidification of the tea leaves inside the fermentation box.

[0008] Preferably, the vibration assembly includes a disc screen, a spring damper, and a mounting plate. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to the inside of the fermentation chamber and the top of the inner side of the mounting base. The spring damper is fixedly connected to the mounting plate. The top and bottom of the disc screen are connected to the spring damper. Through the combined use of the disc screen, the spring damper, and the mounting plate, the tea leaves in the fermentation chamber can be vibrated. Vibration can promote a more uniform distribution of substances in the tea leaves, enhance air circulation inside the tea leaves, help microorganisms to function better, thereby accelerating the fermentation process. This ensures that each tea leaf is evenly exposed to the fermentation environment, avoiding over-fermentation or under-fermentation in some parts, thus ensuring the consistency of the overall quality of the tea.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the fermentation chamber is fixedly connected to three sets of temperature control devices arranged vertically. The inner wall of the chamber is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe, and the outer wall of the connecting pipe is fixedly connected to a heating pipe. The temperature control devices are connected to the connecting pipe. Through the combined use of the partition plate, temperature control devices, connecting pipe, and heating pipe, the tea can undergo a spiral-step fermentation. This allows the tea to pass through three sets of chambers, which helps to create airflow paths through different chamber spaces. This allows the tea to come into more even contact with air and oxygen during the fermentation process. The tea can move in layers or spirals in multiple chambers, and each chamber can maintain a different temperature and humidity environment. This ensures that the tea does not undergo local over-fermentation or under-fermentation during the fermentation process, thus making the overall fermentation of the tea more uniform and avoiding inconsistencies in tea quality.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the mounting chassis has an arc-shaped notch, and a collection box is provided on the mounting chassis. The collection box is slidably installed on the arc-shaped notch, which facilitates the collection of tea leaves.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] (1) The stepped tea fermentation device, through the combined use of disc screen, spring damper and mounting plate, can vibrate the tea in the fermentation box. Vibration can promote a more uniform distribution of substances in the tea, enhance the air circulation inside the tea, help microorganisms to play a better role, thereby accelerating the fermentation process, so that each tea leaf can be evenly exposed to the fermentation environment, avoid over-fermentation or under-fermentation in some parts, and thus ensure the consistency of the overall quality of the tea.

[0013] (2) This stepped tea fermentation device, through the combined use of partition plates, temperature control equipment, connecting pipes and hot pipes, can carry out stepped fermentation of tea leaves in a spiral manner. The tea leaves pass through three sets of chambers, which helps to create airflow paths through different chamber spaces, so that the tea leaves can come into contact with air and oxygen more evenly during the fermentation process. The tea leaves can move in layers or spirals in multiple chambers, and each chamber can maintain a different temperature and humidity environment, ensuring that the tea leaves will not be over-fermented or under-fermented in some areas during the fermentation process, thereby making the overall fermentation of the tea leaves more uniform and avoiding inconsistencies in the quality of the tea leaves.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a stepped tea fermentation device, including a mounting base 1, a vibration component, and a rotating fermentation component. A fermentation box 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base 1. The top of the fermentation box 2 has a feed inlet 3 for easy feeding of tea leaves. A humidification device 4 is fixedly connected to the top inner side of the fermentation box 2 for humidifying the tea leaves inside. The vibration component is located above the mounting base 1 and includes a disc-shaped screen 5, a spring damper 6, and a mounting plate 7. The mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fermentation box 2 and the top inner side of the mounting base 1. A spring damper 6 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 7. The top and bottom of the disc-shaped screen 5 are connected to the spring damper 6. The vibration is achieved through the disc-shaped screen... The combined use of the shaped screen 5, spring damper 6, and mounting plate 7 vibrates the tea leaves inside the fermentation chamber 2. This vibration promotes a more even distribution of substances within the tea leaves, enhances air circulation, and helps microorganisms function better, thereby accelerating the fermentation process. This ensures that each tea leaf is evenly exposed to the fermentation environment, preventing over-fermentation or under-fermentation in certain areas and guaranteeing the overall consistency of the tea's quality. The swirling fermentation assembly is located inside the fermentation chamber 2 and includes a partition plate 9, a temperature control device 10, a connecting pipe 11, and a heating pipe 12. Two sets of partition plates 9 are fixedly connected internally to the fermentation chamber 2, arranged vertically. The partition plates 9 divide the fermentation chamber 2 into three cavities. The outer wall of the fermentation chamber 2 is fixedly connected to... Three sets of temperature control devices 10 are arranged vertically. A connecting pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity, and a heating pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 11. The temperature control devices 10 are connected to the connecting pipe 11. During use, the operator puts tea leaves in batches through the feed inlet 3, and simultaneously starts the vibration motor 8. The vibration motor 8 drives the disc screen 5 to vibrate up and down. The vibration of the disc screen 5 causes the tea leaves inside to vibrate and slide down, simultaneously starting the upper set of temperature control devices 10. The temperature control devices 10 heat the interior through the connecting pipe 11 and the heating pipe 12. Simultaneously, the humidification device 4 is started to humidify the interior of the mounting base 1. After fermentation for a period of time, the vibration motor 8 is started again, and the operator puts the tea leaves into the lower set through the feed inlet 3. A batch of tea leaves is placed in, and the vibration motor 8 moves the tea leaves, which have been fermenting for a period of time, to the center. The operation of another set of temperature control devices 10 is then repeated, allowing both batches of tea leaves to ferment. This process is continuously repeated, enabling the tea leaves to undergo step-by-step fermentation. Through the combined use of the partition plate 9, temperature control devices 10, connecting pipes 11, and heating pipes 12, the tea leaves can undergo a swirling, step-by-step fermentation. The tea leaves pass through three sets of chambers, which helps create airflow paths within different chamber spaces, allowing the tea leaves to come into more even contact with air and oxygen during fermentation. The tea leaves can move in layers or swirling motions within multiple chambers, each maintaining a different temperature and humidity environment, ensuring that the tea leaves do not experience localized over-fermentation or under-fermentation during the fermentation process.This ensures more even fermentation of the tea leaves, preventing inconsistencies in tea quality.

[0022] Furthermore, an arc-shaped notch 14 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting chassis 1, and a collection box 13 is provided on the mounting chassis 1. The collection box 13 is slidably installed on the arc-shaped notch 14, which facilitates the collection of tea leaves.

[0023] Working principle: During use, the operator puts tea leaves into the feed inlet 3 in batches, and at the same time controls the vibration motor 8 to start. The vibration motor 8 drives the disc screen 5 to vibrate up and down. The vibration of the disc screen 5 causes the tea leaves inside to vibrate and slide down. At the same time, the temperature control device 10 located above is activated. The temperature control device 10 heats the inside through a set of connecting pipes 11 and heating pipes 12. At the same time, the humidification device 4 is activated to humidify the inside of the mounting base 1. After fermentation for a period of time, the vibration motor 8 is activated again, and the operator puts the next batch of tea leaves into the feed inlet 3. The vibration motor 8 moves the tea leaves that have been fermenting for a period of time to the middle, and the action of another set of temperature control devices 10 is repeated, so that two batches of tea leaves can ferment. Then, the above actions are repeated continuously, so that the tea leaves undergo step fermentation.

[0024] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
