Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing, specifically to a high-efficiency kneading device for tea processing. Background Technology
[0002] Tea leaf rolling is a core step in tea-making. This process uses mechanical force to curl the leaves into strips or granules, creating a tight and aesthetically pleasing shape. It also increases surface area to improve subsequent drying efficiency and the rate of substance release during brewing. Furthermore, it disrupts the leaf cell wall structure, promoting the seepage of tea juice and its coating on the leaf surface. Traditional tea rolling equipment tends to apply a relatively uniform rolling force, failing to effectively combine light and heavy rolling, resulting in low efficiency and affecting the rolling effect. Therefore, how to combine light and heavy rolling for efficient rolling is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, we propose a high-efficiency kneading device for tea processing, which improves upon the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

The central shaft is connected to the inside of the kneading box via bearings. A transmission pulley is fixed to one outer end of the central shaft. The first swing plate, the second swing plate, and the third swing plate are evenly arranged on the central shaft. A first roller is connected between two first swing plates via bearings, and a second roller is connected between two second swing plates via bearings.

[0017] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention. Example
[0018] like Figure 1-3As shown, a high-efficiency kneading device for tea processing includes a kneading box 1, on which a kneading mechanism is installed. The kneading mechanism includes a central shaft 2, a transmission pulley 3, a first swing plate 4, a second swing plate 5, a third swing plate 6, a first roller 7, a first rubber sleeve 8, a second roller 9, a second rubber sleeve 10, a scraper 11, a rubber strip 12, and a motor 14. The central shaft 2 is connected to the inside of the kneading box 1 via bearings. A transmission pulley 3 is fixed to one outer end of the central shaft 2. The first swing plate 4, the second swing plate 5, and the third swing plate 6 are evenly arranged on the central shaft 2. The two first swing plates 4 are connected by a transmission pulley 3. A roller 7 is connected via a bearing, and a roller 9 is connected between two swing plates 5 via a bearing. A rubber sleeve 8 is fitted on roller 7, and a rubber sleeve 10 is fitted on roller 9. Scrapers 11 are fixed to the bottom ends of the two swing plates 6, and rubber strips 12 are fixed to the bottom of the scrapers 11. A side support plate 13 is welded and fixed to the end face of the back of the kneading box 1, and a motor 14 is installed on the side support plate 13. The whole structure is a high-efficiency kneading equipment for tea processing, which can perform light and heavy kneading of tea, thereby improving kneading efficiency and effect and realizing high-efficiency kneading processing.
[0019] In this embodiment, a drive belt pulley 15 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor 14. The drive belt pulley 15 is located directly above the transmission pulley 3, and a belt 16 is fitted between the drive belt pulley 15 and the transmission pulley 3. The motor 14 drives the central shaft 2 to rotate to achieve the power of kneading.
[0020] In this embodiment, a motor controller 17 connected to the motor 14 is also provided on the side support plate 13 to facilitate the operation of the equipment.
[0021] In this embodiment, the distance between the rubber sleeve 18 and the inner wall of the kneading box 1 is 10mm, and the distance between the rubber sleeve 210 and the inner wall of the kneading box 1 is 20mm, which can squeeze tea leaves of different thicknesses for kneading and achieve a combination of light and heavy kneading.
[0022] In this embodiment, the rubber strip 12 is attached to the inner wall of the kneading box 1 to scrape up and turn the tea leaves at the bottom of the kneading box 1, so as to achieve uniform kneading.
[0023] The principle and advantages of this utility model are as follows: Connect the motor controller 17 to the power supply to power the equipment. Then, pour an appropriate amount of tea leaves into the kneading box 1. A small amount of tea leaves can be added to avoid excessive tea leaves causing the rollers to pile up. Then, turn on the motor 14 to rotate the central shaft 2 counterclockwise. The second rubber sleeve 10 and the first rubber sleeve 8 swing downwards in sequence and can rotate on their own, squeezing and kneading the tea leaves at the bottom of the kneading box 1. Because the rubber sleeves are soft and deformable, and the distance between the two rubber sleeves and the bottom of the kneading box 1 is different, and the first rubber sleeve 8 squeezes less tea leaves and has a smaller kneading force, while the second rubber sleeve 10 squeezes more tea leaves and has a larger kneading force, the tea leaves at the bottom of the kneading box 1 can be kneaded with a combination of light and heavy kneading. The rubber strip 12 scrapes and flips the tea leaves against the bottom of the kneading box 1, which helps to knead evenly, thereby improving the kneading effect and efficiency, and improving practicality.
[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
