Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of infrared tea fixing roller technology, specifically an infrared tea fixing roller that is fully heated. Background Technology

[0002] Infrared radiation is an electromagnetic wave with strong penetrating power. When infrared radiation reaches the surface of tea leaves, water molecules and organic components in the tea absorb the infrared energy and convert it into heat, thus rapidly heating the tea leaves. The infrared tea fixing drum is a modern tea processing equipment that combines infrared heating technology with traditional drum-type fixing techniques.

[0003] Referring to Chinese Patent Publication No. CN203407433U, published on January 29, 2014, an internal heating drum for a drum-type tea fixing machine is disclosed. Its structure includes a tea adding funnel, a drum, a high-temperature resistant transparent glass tube, an infrared heating tube, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, and an end cap. The tea adding funnel is located on the upper part of the outer wall of the drum, and an end cap is installed at the top of the funnel. Temperature and humidity sensors are symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the lower end inside the drum. The temperature sensor can monitor the temperature inside the drum in real time. A high-temperature resistant transparent glass tube is installed in the center of the drum, and an infrared heating tube is installed inside the high-temperature resistant transparent glass tube. This utility model adopts a design of installing an infrared heating tube inside the drum, which differs from traditional drum-type tea fixing machines. It achieves heating from inside the drum, resulting in high processing efficiency, uniform fixing of tea leaves, and high quality tea, and has broad application prospects.

[0004] The existing technology has the following technical problems: the infrared tea fixing drum only has an infrared heating tube in the middle, which makes it difficult to improve the heating of the tea leaves and the water vapor generated during the fixing process is not easy to be discharged. Therefore, we propose an infrared tea fixing drum that can be fully heated in order to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an infrared tea fixing drum that is fully heated, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing infrared tea fixing drums only have an infrared heating tube in the middle part of the drum, which makes it necessary to improve the fullness of heating of the tea and makes it difficult to remove the water vapor generated during the fixing process.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an infrared tea-fixing roller that is fully heated, comprising an outer cylinder, an inner hollow cylinder, and a support base. Infrared lamp tube assemblies are fixedly installed at equal angles on the inner wall of the outer cylinder. An inner hollow cylinder is provided inside the outer cylinder, and a heating structure and a stirring structure capable of transferring tea leaves are provided inside the inner hollow cylinder. The stirring structure is located behind the heating structure. The outer cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the support base, and a dehumidification structure is connected to the top of the outer cylinder. The heating structure includes an infrared lamp tube body and a transparent protective shell, and the infrared lamp tube body is fixedly installed inside the transparent protective shell.

[0007] Preferably, the dehumidification structure includes an "L"-shaped pipe, a dehumidification fan, and an annular heating plate. The dehumidification fan is fixedly connected inside the "L"-shaped pipe, and the annular heating plate is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the "L"-shaped pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the "L"-shaped pipe is fixedly installed inside the top wall of the outer cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, the stirring structure includes a motor, a drive wheel, a drive belt, and a screw rod. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the drive wheel, a drive belt is provided on the outside of the drive wheel, and the drive wheel is fixedly installed on the outside of the screw rod.

[0010] Preferably, the spiral rod is disposed inside the inner hollow cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, the transparent protective shell is fixedly installed inside the right side plate of the inner hollow cylinder.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the fully heated infrared tea fixing drum, through the cooperation of the infrared lamp tube assembly at equal angles and the heating structure, makes the tea more evenly heated; through the stirring structure, the differential pressure can be transported from the left to the right, so as to disperse it, and at the same time, it is convenient to transport the tea back to the feed port on the left, thus facilitating material handling; through the dehumidification structure, it is convenient to discharge water vapor in the outer cylinder.

[0013] 1. It is equipped with a heating structure and infrared lamp assembly. The infrared lamp assembly is fixedly installed at the same angle on the inner wall of the outer cylinder. The infrared lamp tube is installed inside the inner hollow cylinder. The inner hollow cylinder is driven to rotate by a power device, so that the tea can be heated more evenly.

[0014] 2. It is equipped with a stirring structure. Through the transmission wheel, the motor can drive the screw to rotate, which in turn drives the inner hollow cylinder to rotate. This allows the screw to transport the tea leaves from the left to the right, dispersing them and further improving the uniformity of heating and the efficiency of fixing.

[0015] Furthermore, the motor is started in reverse so that the tea leaves on the left can return to the right, making it easier to remove the processed tea leaves.

[0016] 3. Equipped with a dehumidification structure, the water vapor generated during the blanching process is drawn into the "L"-shaped pipe by the dehumidification fan and discharged from the other end of the pipe. At the same time, the annular heating plate on the outside of the "L"-shaped pipe heats its pipe wall, reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the pipe, thereby preventing the water vapor from turning into water and dripping back into the outside of the pipe.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0025] Example 1: A fully heated infrared tea fixing roller includes an outer cylinder 1, an inner hollow cylinder 2, and a support base 7. An infrared lamp tube assembly 3 is fixedly installed at equal angles on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 1. The inner hollow cylinder 2 is provided inside the outer cylinder 1. A heating structure 4 and a stirring structure 6 are provided inside the inner hollow cylinder 2. The outer cylinder 1 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 7. A dehumidification structure 5 is connected to the top of the outer cylinder 1.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, infrared lamp tube assembly 3 is fixedly installed at equal angles on the inner wall of outer cylinder 1. Heating structure 4 includes infrared lamp tube body 401 and transparent protective shell 402. Infrared lamp tube body 401 is fixedly installed inside transparent protective shell 402. Transparent protective shell 402 is fixedly installed inside the right side plate of inner hollow cylinder 2. Power device (motor connected to inner hollow cylinder 2) is connected to the outside of the plate fixedly connected to the right side of inner hollow cylinder 2. The power device drives inner hollow cylinder 2 to rotate, causing tea leaves to turn over. Through the cooperation of infrared lamp tube assembly 3 and infrared lamp tube body 401, the tea leaves can be heated more evenly.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the dehumidification structure 5 includes an "L"-shaped pipe 501, a dehumidification fan 502, and an annular heating plate 503. During the heating of tea leaves, water vapor is generated. The "L"-shaped pipe 501 is fixedly installed inside the top wall of the outer cylinder 1. The annular heating plate 503 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the "L"-shaped pipe 501. When the annular heating plate 503 is turned on, the "L"-shaped pipe 501 is heated, so that the temperature difference between the inside of the "L"-shaped pipe 501 and the temperature of the outer cylinder 1 is small, thereby preventing the water vapor from turning into water and dripping back into the outer cylinder 1. Two dehumidification fans 502 are fixedly connected inside the "L"-shaped pipe 501. When the dehumidification fans 502 are turned on, the bottom dehumidification fan 502 draws the water vapor into the "L"-shaped pipe 501, and the top dehumidification fan 502 discharges the water vapor into the "L"-shaped pipe 501.

[0028] Example 2: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the stirring structure 6 includes a motor 601, a transmission wheel 602, a transmission belt 603, and a spiral rod 604. When tea leaves are put into the inner hollow cylinder 2 from the left feed port, the power equipment of the inner hollow cylinder 2 is started first, causing the tea leaves to turn to the side of the spiral rod 604. At the same time, the motor 601 is started. The output end of the motor 601 is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel 602. The motor 601 drives the transmission wheel 602 to rotate. Another transmission wheel 602 is fixedly installed on the outside of the spiral rod 604. Both transmission wheels 602 are provided with transmission belts 603 on their outside sides, so that the transmission wheels 602 drive the spiral rod 604 to rotate. The spiral rod 604 is set inside the inner hollow cylinder 2, thereby conveying the tea leaves to the right side of the inner hollow cylinder 2, so that the tea leaves are dispersed, thereby making the heating more uniform.

[0029] Working principle: First, place the tea leaves into the hollow cylinder 2 through the feed port on the left. According to Embodiment 2, start the motor 601 and the power equipment of the inner hollow cylinder 2 at the same time, so that the spiral rod 604 and the inner hollow cylinder 2 rotate. Then, turn on all the infrared lamp tubes 401 to heat the tea leaves. After heating, start the motor 601 in reverse, so that the spiral rod 604 conveys the tea leaves to the feed port, so that the heated tea leaves can be easily taken out.
