Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing technology, and in particular to a device for facilitating tea withering. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of green tea, withering is necessary, and there are various withering methods. Withering by blowing air is a common method, using fans to accelerate the loss of moisture from fresh leaves, thus promoting the withering process. This method can reduce humidity and promote normal chemical changes in the fresh leaves. However, existing tea withering racks typically consist of leaves laid flat on the top of the rack, with withering achieved by blowing air with fans and manually turning the leaves. This method suffers from inconsistent airflow, long processing time, and intermittent manual turning, resulting in a high workload. Furthermore, the withered tea leaves need to be collected manually, significantly increasing labor costs and reducing efficiency. Utility Model Content
