[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a mold for pressing and compressing dark tea, including a base 1 and a pressing part 2.

[0032] The base 1 has a support frame 101 set on the top of the base 1, and an operating table 102 is set in the middle of the support frame 101. The pressing part 2 is set on the top of the base 1. The pressing part 2 has a pressing barrel 201 rotatably set inside the operating table 102. The base 1 also has a feeding trough 103 set at the bottom of the operating table 102. The inside of the feeding trough 103 is provided with an inclined surface. The feeding trough 103 is located directly below the pressing barrel 201. After the pressing of the black tea is completed, the pressing barrel 201 can be rotated to a suitable position so that the pressed black tea cake falls from the pressing barrel 201 into the feeding trough 103. The inclined surface inside the feeding trough 103 can guide the black tea cake to slide out smoothly, which is convenient for subsequent collection.

[0033] A partition 202 is horizontally arranged in the middle of the inside of the pressing barrel 201. A sliding plate 208 is arranged inside the pressing barrel 201. The sliding plate 208 passes vertically through the partition 202 and is slidably connected to the pressing barrel 201. A hydraulic telescopic rod 209 is arranged at the top of the support frame 101. A pressure plate 210 is arranged at the output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 209. The pressure plate 210 extends into the pressing barrel 201 and is slidably connected to the pressing barrel 201. The bottom of the pressure plate 210 abuts against the sliding plate 208. The pressure plate 210 can be pushed to slide inside the pressing barrel 201 by the hydraulic telescopic rod 209. In conjunction with the sliding plate 208, the black tea raw material in the pressing barrel 201 is pressed to achieve the pressing of black tea. The partition 202 can divide and limit the pressing space of the black tea raw material to a certain extent. Example

[0034] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a mold for pressing and compressing dark tea, including a pressing part 2, a pressing barrel 201, and a sliding plate 208.

[0035] A partition 202 is provided at the center of the inside of the pressing barrel 201, dividing the inside of the pressing barrel 201 into two pressing chambers. By rotating the pressing barrel 201, the two pressing chambers can be used alternately, so that the material can be discharged at the same time as pressing, thereby improving the pressing efficiency.

[0036] The slide plate 208 has a double-layer structure. The upper and lower ends of the slide plate 208 are located in two pressing chambers respectively. When the hydraulic telescopic rod 209 pushes the pressure plate 210 to press, the double-layer structure of the slide plate 208 allows one pressing chamber to press while the other pressing chamber completes the discharge operation.

[0037] A rotating shaft 203 is integrally provided on the side of the pressing barrel 201. The rotating shaft 203 is embedded in the operating table 102 and rotatably connected to the operating table 102. This allows the pressing barrel 201 to be rotated easily. After pressing is completed, the pressing barrel 201 can be rotated to the top of the feeding trough 103 for feeding. It also facilitates the filling of black tea raw materials in different positions.

[0038] A hexagonal shaft 204 is integrally provided at one end of the rotating shaft 203. A slide rod 205 is slidably provided on the side of the hexagonal shaft 204. The rotation of the rotating shaft 203 can be controlled and adjusted by sliding the slide rod 205 on the hexagonal shaft 204, so as to facilitate the rotation of the pressing drum 201 as needed.

[0039] A spring 207 is nested on the outside of the hexagonal shaft 204. The spring 207 abuts against one end of the slide rod 205. The elasticity of the spring 207 can be used to give the slide rod 205 a certain degree of restoring ability after sliding.

[0040] A locking head 206 is integrally provided at the end of the slide bar 205 away from the spring 207. A locking groove 104 is provided on the side of the operating table 102. The locking head 206 engages with the locking groove 104. After the pressing drum 201 is rotated to a suitable position, the locking head 206 and the locking groove 104 fix the pressing drum 201 in the current position, preventing the pressing drum 201 from rotating during pressing or feeding.

[0041] Working principle: First, the raw black tea leaves are placed into the pressing chamber 201, which is divided into two pressing chambers by the partition 202. The pressing chamber is located directly below the pressing plate 210. Then, the hydraulic telescopic rod 209 is activated. The output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 209 pushes the pressing plate 210 to slide downwards in the pressing chamber 201. Since the bottom of the pressing plate 210 abuts against the sliding plate 208, the pressing plate 210 and the sliding plate 208 squeeze the raw black tea leaves in the pressing chamber, thus achieving the pressing of the black tea. After the raw tea leaves in one pressing chamber are pressed, the pressing drum 201 needs to be rotated. Pulling the slide bar 205 outwards causes it to slide on the hexagonal shaft 204, compressing the spring 207 and disengaging the clamp 206 from the clamp slot 104. At this point, the pressing drum 201 can be rotated. Through the rotation of the rotating shaft 203 within the operating table 102, the pressing chamber containing the pressed tea cake is rotated to directly above the feeding trough 103. Releasing the slide bar 205 allows the spring 207 to return to its original position. The elastic deformation pushes the slide bar 205 to reset, causing the clamp head 206 to engage with the corresponding clamp slot 104 again, fixing the pressing barrel 201 in its current position and preventing it from rotating during the discharge process. Then, the upper pressing chamber is filled with black tea raw materials again, and the hydraulic telescopic rod 209 is activated again to push the pressing plate 210 downward. At this time, when pressing the black tea in the upper pressing chamber of the pressing barrel 201, the sliding plate 208 will be pushed downward, thereby pushing the pressed black tea cake in the lower pressing chamber of the pressing barrel 201 out of the pressing barrel 201 and causing it to fall into the feeding trough 103. The inclined surface in the feeding trough 103 guides the black tea cake to slide out smoothly for subsequent collection. While one pressing chamber is discharging, the other pressing chamber can be used for filling and pressing black tea raw materials. By rotating the pressing barrel 201, the two pressing chambers are used alternately, which greatly improves the pressing efficiency. By repeating this cycle, the pressing and discharging of compressed black tea can be continuously completed.
