[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0022] Example
[0023] For tea aroma enhancement devices with temperature control mechanisms, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-2 The tea aroma-enhancing device with a temperature-regulating mechanism provided by this utility model mainly includes an aroma-enhancing cylinder 4, a cooling component, a heating component, a fixed sleeve 7, and a rotating sleeve 5. The rotating sleeve 5 is rotatably mounted on the axis of the aroma-enhancing cylinder 4.
[0024] A cooling component is used to introduce cold air into the fixed sleeve 7, and a heating component is used to introduce hot air into the fixed sleeve 7. The temperature during the aroma extraction process can be precisely adjusted by introducing cold and hot air. A connecting gas pipe 12 connects the rotating sleeve 5 and the fixed sleeve 7. The top end of the connecting gas pipe 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the fixed sleeve 7 via a rotary sealing joint. This sealing joint ensures both the flexibility of the connecting gas pipe 12's rotation and prevents gas leakage. The bottom end of the connecting gas pipe 12 extends into the interior of the rotating sleeve 5 and is sealed to the internal piping system of the rotating sleeve 5.
[0025] The rotating sleeve 5 has multiple jet pipes 10 arranged axially. The jet pipes 10 are connected to the internal piping system of the rotating sleeve 5. The connection between the jet pipes 10 and the rotating sleeve 5 is sealed by welding to ensure the airtightness of gas transmission. Multiple jet nozzles 11 are installed on the jet pipes 10. The jet nozzles 11 are fixed to the jet pipes 10 by threaded connection for easy installation and disassembly.
[0026] In some optional embodiments of this application, a housing 1 is also included, with the incense tube 4 located inside the housing 1. A hydraulic cylinder 2 is installed on the bottom side of the interior of the housing 1. The top output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 is connected to the base plate 3 by bolts. The top of the base plate 3 is provided with a slot 31, and the bottom of the incense tube 4 is provided with a locking block 41. The locking block 41 is tightly inserted into the slot 31, thereby facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the incense tube 4. The lifting and lowering of the incense tube 4 is controlled by the hydraulic cylinder 2, facilitating feeding and discharging operations.
[0027] The heating assembly includes a mounting frame 9 and a hot air blower 13. The hot air blower 13 is fixed to the mounting frame 9 by bolts. The air supply end of the hot air blower 13 is connected to the inside of the fixed sleeve 7 through a first air supply pipe 131. The connection between the first air supply pipe 131 and the hot air blower 13 and the fixed sleeve 7 is made of sealed flange to ensure that there is no leakage during the heat transmission process.
[0028] The refrigeration assembly includes a cooler 14 mounted on the mounting bracket 9. The cooler 14 is also bolted to the mounting bracket 9. The air supply end of the cooler 14 is connected to the inside of the fixed sleeve 7 via a second air supply pipe 141. The connection between the second air supply pipe 141 and the cooler 14 and the fixed sleeve 7 is also made using a sealing flange. A filter screen is connected to one end of the first air supply pipe 131 and the second air supply pipe 141 inside the fixed sleeve 7 to prevent impurities from entering during dust removal. The mounting bracket 9 is designed to facilitate the centralized installation of the hot air blower 13 and the cooler 14, making the structure more compact and rational.
[0029] This application also includes an air extraction assembly, which includes a vacuum cleaner 15 mounted on a mounting bracket 9. The vacuum cleaner is fixed to the mounting bracket 9 by bolts. The air extraction end of the vacuum cleaner is connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 7 via an air extraction pipe. The connection between the air extraction pipe and the vacuum cleaner and the fixing sleeve 7 is sealed with a sealing rubber ring to prevent air leakage. The air extraction assembly can remove particulate impurities mixed in the tea leaves before or after aroma enhancement, thereby improving the purity of the tea.
[0030] One-way valves are installed on the first gas supply pipe 131, the second gas supply pipe 141, and the extraction pipe to allow gas to flow unidirectionally into the fixed sleeve 7. The one-way valves are installed on the pipes by means of threaded connection to ensure the unidirectional flow of gas.
[0031] A drive motor 6 is installed on the housing 1 and fixed to the housing 1 with bolts. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 is connected to the second gear 61 by a key connection. A first gear 51 is installed on the outside of the rotating sleeve 5 and fixed to the rotating sleeve 5 by welding. The first gear 51 and the second gear 61 mesh with each other. The drive motor 6 drives the rotating sleeve 5 to rotate, so that the air nozzle 11 can evenly spray air onto the tea leaves to enhance their aroma.
[0032] This application also includes a controller. A temperature sensor is installed inside the housing 1 and / or the fixing sleeve 7. The temperature sensor can be fixed in the corresponding position by adhesive and can accurately measure the temperature. The hydraulic cylinder 2, temperature sensor, drive motor 6, hot air blower 13, cold air blower 14, vacuum cleaner, first air supply pipe 131, second air supply pipe 141 and one-way valve on the exhaust pipe are all connected to the controller via wires or wireless communication. The controller intelligently controls the operation of each component based on the temperature information fed back by the temperature sensor to achieve precise temperature regulation and automated operation.
[0033] A sealed door is installed on the outside of the enclosure 1. The sealed door is connected to the enclosure 1 by a hinge. The sealed door and the enclosure 1 are sealed with a sealing strip to ensure the stability of the temperature and gas environment inside the device.
[0034] The housing 1 is connected to an exhaust pipe 8. The connection between the exhaust pipe 8 and the housing 1 is sealed by welding. An exhaust valve is installed on the exhaust pipe 8 to facilitate the discharge of waste gas generated during the aroma extraction process. The end of the air nozzle 11 away from the air pipe 10 is fixedly connected to a filter screen by adhesive. The filter screen can prevent tea particles from entering the air nozzle 11 and ensure the normal air spraying function of the air nozzle 11.
[0035] During feeding, hydraulic cylinder 2 is activated, extending its output shaft and pushing the base plate 3 upward. Since the bottom locking block of the aroma-enhancing cylinder 4 is inserted into the slot of the base plate 3, the aroma-enhancing cylinder 4 rises along with the base plate 3 until it disengages from the rotating sleeve 5. Then, the sealed chamber door is opened, and the tea leaves to be aroma-enhanced are placed inside the aroma-enhancing cylinder 4. After the tea leaves are placed, the sealed chamber door is closed, and hydraulic cylinder 2 is activated in reverse, causing the aroma-enhancing cylinder 4 to descend back to its initial position.
[0036] Before or after aroma extraction, start the vacuum cleaner 15, simultaneously close the one-way valves on the first air supply pipe 131 and the second air supply pipe 141, and open the valve on the extraction pipe 151. The vacuum cleaner 15 begins operation, drawing air from inside the fixed sleeve 7 through the extraction pipe 151. Under negative pressure, particulate impurities mixed in with the tea are extracted along with the air and collected through the extraction pipe into the vacuum cleaner's filter device, thus purifying the tea. After a period of extraction, close the valves on the vacuum cleaner 15 and the extraction pipe 151.
[0037] During aroma enhancement, the one-way valve on the first air supply pipe 131 or the second air supply pipe 141 is opened according to the type of tea and the desired aroma enhancement. If a higher temperature is required for aroma enhancement, the hot air blower 13 is operated. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 13 enters the fixed sleeve 7 through the first air supply pipe 131, and is then ejected through the connecting air pipe 12, the internal piping system of the rotating sleeve, the air jet pipe 10, and the air jet nozzle 11 to heat and enhance the aroma of the tea. If a lower temperature is required for aroma enhancement, the cold air blower 14 is operated. The cold air generated by the cold air blower 14 enters the fixed sleeve 7 through the second air supply pipe 141, and is similarly ejected through the connecting air pipe 12, the internal piping system of the rotating sleeve, the air jet pipe 10, and the air jet nozzle 11 to cool and enhance the aroma of the tea.
[0038] During the aroma enhancement process, the drive motor 6 is started. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 drives the second gear 61 to rotate. Since the second gear 61 meshes with the first gear 51 on the outside of the rotating sleeve 5, the rotation of the second gear 61 drives the first gear 51 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating sleeve 5 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating sleeve 5 allows the gas sprayed from the nozzle 11 to act evenly on the tea leaves, achieving all-round and uniform aroma enhancement.
[0039] Meanwhile, the temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the housing 1 and / or the fixed sleeve 7 in real time and feeds the temperature information back to the controller. The controller automatically adjusts the operating power of the hot air blower 13 or the cold air blower 14, as well as the speed of the drive motor 6, according to the preset temperature value, to achieve precise temperature control and automated aroma extraction process.
[0040] After aroma enhancement is complete, turn off the hot air blower 13 or the cold air blower 14, and reverse the hydraulic cylinder 2 to raise the aroma enhancement cylinder 4 and disengage it from the rotating sleeve 5. Open the sealed box door and remove the aroma-enhanced tea leaves from the aroma enhancement cylinder 4.
[0041] During the aroma extraction process, some waste gas is generated. When it is necessary to discharge the waste gas, open the exhaust valve on exhaust pipe 8, and the waste gas will be discharged outside the device through the exhaust pipe.
[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
