[0027] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-4This utility model discloses a dustproof device for a tea screening machine, comprising a base 1, a support plate 2 fixedly installed on one side of the base 1, and two fixing plates 11 and 17 fixedly installed on the left side of the base 1; a feed pipe 3 fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 2, the feed pipe 3 having a feed inlet 4, one end of the feed pipe 3 passing through a drum screen 5, one side of the drum screen 5 being rotatably connected to a waste pipe 6 and a discharge pipe 7, the bottom end of the waste pipe 6 having a waste outlet 8, a screen barrel 23 fixedly installed on one side inside the drum screen 5, the screen barrel 23 having multiple symmetrical screen holes 24, the other end of the discharge pipe 7 passing through an air separator 9, and an air separator 10 fixedly installed on one side of the air separator 9; through the feed pipe 3, the feed inlet 4, and the drum screen 5, the drum screen 5 is placed at an incline on a rotatable cylinder. The drum screen 5 has a screen barrel 23 fixedly installed inside. The screen barrel 23 has screen holes 24 of different sizes. These screen holes 24 are arranged in descending order of size according to the needs of tea screening. When the drum screen 5 rotates, the tea leaves tumble and move inside the drum as the drum rotates. Under the combined action of gravity and centrifugal force, the tea leaves come into full contact with the screen holes 24. Smaller tea leaves or fragments can pass through the screen holes 24 of the corresponding size and fall into the corresponding waste pipe 6 below. Larger tea leaves continue to roll inside the drum until they reach the screen hole 24 of the appropriate size and fall into the corresponding discharge pipe 7. To prevent the tea leaves from accumulating on the surface of the screen holes 24 and clogging the screen holes 24, thus affecting the screening efficiency.

[0029] The drum screen 5 is usually equipped with a cleaning device, such as a brush installed inside the drum. As the drum rotates, the brush continuously cleans the surface of the screen holes 24, brushing off the tea leaves adhering to the screen holes 24, keeping the screen holes 24 unobstructed, and ensuring the continuous operation of the screening process.

[0030] A screen barrel 23 is fixedly installed on one side of the inside of the drum screen 5. The screen barrel 23 has multiple symmetrical screen holes 24. Through the setting of the screen barrel 23 and the screen holes 24, these screen holes 24 are arranged in order from large to small according to the needs of tea screening. When the drum screen 5 rotates, the tea leaves tumble and move inside the drum as the drum rotates. Under the combined action of gravity and centrifugal force, the tea leaves are sorted. An air separator box 9 is installed through the other end of the discharge pipe 7. An air separator 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the air separator box 9. By adjusting the air speed, the air separator 10 can effectively remove light impurities such as dust, dust, and fuzz from the tea leaves, thereby improving the cleanliness of the tea leaves.

[0031] Four support columns 13 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the fixed plate 11. Two motors 12 are fixedly installed on one side of each support column 13. The output end of each motor 12 passes through the fixed plate 11 and is fixedly connected to a rotating column 16. A rotating wheel 14 is fixedly installed on the rotating column 16. A limit column 15 is fixedly installed on one side of each support column 13, and the limit column 15 is rotatably mounted on the rotating column 16. Four support columns 29 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the fixed plate 17. Two motors 28 are fixedly installed on one side of each support column 29. The output end of each motor 28 passes through the fixed plate 17 and is fixedly connected to a rotating column 22. A rotating wheel 21 is fixedly installed on the rotating column 22. A limit column 20 is fixedly installed on one side of each support column 29, and the limit column 20 is rotatably mounted on the rotating column 21. Mounted on rotating column 22; by setting fixed plates 11 and 17, support columns 13 and 19, limit columns 15 and 20, rotating columns 16 and 22, motor 12 and 18, and rotating wheels 14 and 21, when motor 12 and 18 start simultaneously, driving the fixedly mounted rotating columns 16 and 22 to rotate, the rotating wheels 14 and 21 also rotate. At this time, the drum screen 5, movably mounted on limit columns 15 and 20, also rotates due to the rotation of the rotating wheels 14 and 21, causing the drum screen 5 to rotate and sift and clean the tea leaves. A slot is provided on the other side of the air separator 9, with a spring 26 fixedly installed at the bottom of the slot, and a filter screen 25 inserted into the slot.

[0032] Working principle: In operation, tea leaves are first fed into the feed pipe 3 through the feed inlet 4, and then flow into the inside of the drum screen 5. Simultaneously, motors 12 and 18 are started, driving rotating columns 16 and 22, which are fixedly connected to the output ends of motors 12 and 18, to rotate in a circular motion. Rotating wheels 14 and 21, fixedly mounted on rotating columns 16 and 22, also rotate in a circular motion. At this time, the movably mounted on limiting columns 15 and 20... The drum screen 5 is rotated by the circular motion of rotating wheel 14 and rotating wheel 21, and also rotates through mutual friction, causing the drum screen 5 to rotate and screen the tea leaves. The qualified tea leaves enter the air separator 9 through the discharge pipe 7. Then the air separator 10 is started to remove dust from the tea leaves for a second time. By adjusting the wind speed, light impurities such as dust, fragments, and fuzz in the tea leaves can be effectively removed, improving the cleanliness of the tea leaves. The unqualified tea leaves screened in the drum screen 5 enter the waste pipe 6 and are discharged from the waste outlet 8.

[0033] 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.
