Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea fermentation technology, and in particular to a material distribution device for tea fermentation equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Most existing tea fermentation chambers use belt conveyors for feeding. After feeding, the tea leaves tend to pile up inside the fermentation chamber. To ensure even fermentation, the piled tea leaves need to be spread out evenly. In practice, workers need to use hand rakes to rak the piled tea leaves to achieve this even spreading.

[0003] However, this traditional method of spreading the tea leaves has many drawbacks. First, workers need to frequently operate inside the fermentation chamber, which is extremely labor-intensive, consuming a lot of physical strength and time, and easily causing fatigue, thus affecting work efficiency and quality. Second, manually ruffling the tea leaves makes it difficult to ensure the uniformity of the spread, which may lead to some tea leaves being under-fermented or over-fermented, affecting the overall quality of the tea. In addition, workers may also face safety hazards from the environment inside the fermentation chamber, such as high temperature, high humidity, and the fermented smell. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can replace manual spreading to reduce labor intensity, improve the uniformity of spreading, and ensure the fermentation quality of green brick tea. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that when spreading the material, workers need to manually operate inside the fermentation box, which is not only labor-intensive but also poses safety hazards during the construction process.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a feeding device for tea fermentation equipment, including a feeding belt, a feeding hopper and a movable support on the fermentation box. The feeding hopper is arranged in the middle of the fermentation box, the output end of the feeding belt is located directly above the feeding hopper, the movable support is axially moved and arranged in the fermentation box, and a discharging belt is rotatably arranged in the movable support.

[0006] Preferably, support wheels are rotatably arranged on both sides of the movable support, a movable motor for driving the support wheels to rotate is installed on the movable support, and a support rail is provided on the top of the inner side wall of the fermentation tank, with the support wheels arranged in the support rail.

[0007] Preferably, the inner sidewall of the support wheel is coaxially fixed with an annular protrusion, and the end wall of the annular protrusion is in contact with the end wall of the support track.

[0008] Preferably, a support mesh frame is fixedly installed inside the movable bracket, the inner top wall of the feeding belt is attached to the top surface of the support mesh frame, and a feeding motor for driving the feeding belt to rotate is installed on the movable bracket.

[0009] Preferably, pressure plates are fixedly installed on the inner sidewalls of the movable support, and the bottom end of the pressure plate is attached to the top surface of the feeding belt.

[0010] Preferably, the feeding hopper is an inverted frustum structure, the feeding hopper is a shell structure, and an auger shaft is horizontally rotatably installed inside the feeding hopper, the auger shaft being located at the inner bottom of the feeding hopper.

[0011] Preferably, support rods are fixedly connected to the lower ends of both ends of the movable support. The support rods are arranged horizontally, and rake rods are fixedly connected vertically to the bottom of the support rods. The rake rods are distributed at equal intervals along the axial direction of the support rods.

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of connecting rods are provided between the movable bracket and the support rod, and the connecting rods are distributed at both ends of the support rod.

[0013] This utility model provides a cloth-feeding device for tea fermentation equipment, which has the following beneficial effects.

[0014] 1. The feeding device of this utility model for tea fermentation equipment, by setting up a movable support and a feeding belt, changes the traditional manual operation method. Workers no longer need to operate it, avoiding frequent entry and exit from the fermentation chamber, greatly reducing labor intensity and minimizing physical and time consumption. At the same time, it also eliminates the potential safety hazards faced by workers operating in the high-temperature, high-humidity fermentation chamber, protecting the physical and mental health of the workers.

[0015] 2. The movable support can move axially within the fermentation chamber, the feeding belt is rotatable, and a rake rod is installed below the movable support. During the feeding process, the movement of the movable support, the rotation of the feeding belt, and the rake rod can evenly spread the tea leaves within the fermentation chamber. Compared to manual rakeing, this method more effectively ensures uniformity of the distribution, allowing the tea leaves to ferment evenly and preventing under-fermentation or over-fermentation in some areas, thus contributing to improved product quality.

[0016] 3. The rotating support wheels on both sides of the movable support frame cooperate with the support rails on the top of the inner wall of the fermentation tank, and the annular protrusions on the inner wall of the support wheels fit snugly against the end wall of the support rails, making the movement of the movable support frame more stable and reliable, and less prone to shaking or deviation. The support mesh frame inside the movable support frame fits snugly against the inner top wall of the feeding belt, while the bottom end of the pressure plate fits snugly against the top surface of the feeding belt, ensuring the stability of the feeding belt during rotation and ensuring the normal operation of the material feeding device.

[0017] 4. The coordination of the feeding belt, feeding hopper, and spreading device realizes integrated operation of feeding and spreading. The feeding belt transports the tea leaves to the feeding hopper, where the auger shaft initially stirs and conveys the tea leaves. Then, the discharging belt and moving support evenly spread the tea leaves in the fermentation tank, simplifying the tea fermentation process and improving production efficiency.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a feeding device for a tea fermentation equipment, including a feeding belt 4, a feeding hopper 2 and a movable support 6 arranged on a fermentation box 1. The feeding hopper 2 is arranged in the middle of the fermentation box 1, and the output end of the feeding belt 4 is located directly above the feeding hopper 2. The movable support 6 is axially movable inside the fermentation box 1, and a discharging belt 7 is rotatably arranged inside the movable support 6.

[0023] The feeding belt 4 is used to transport the tea leaves to be fermented into the feeding hopper 2. The feeding hopper 2 is installed above the fermentation box 1 by a bracket. After the tea leaves are transported into the feeding hopper 2, they fall from the bottom of the feeding hopper 2 and enter the discharging belt 7 in the moving bracket 6. The discharging belt 7 is driven to move by the discharging motor 10, transporting the tea leaves on the discharging belt 7 into the fermentation box 1. Then, the moving bracket 6 is driven to move by the moving motor 9. During the movement, the moving bracket 6 continuously adjusts the position of the discharging end of the discharging belt 7, so that the discharging end of the discharging belt 7 moves along the axial direction of the fermentation box 1, spreading the tea leaves evenly inside the fermentation box 1. When the discharging end of the discharging belt 7 moves directly above the feeding hopper 2, the rotation direction of the discharging belt 7 is adjusted, and the other end of the discharging belt 7 is used to discharge the tea leaves. During the process of transporting the tea leaves, the discharging belt 7 is continuously moved to spread the tea leaves evenly on the other end of the fermentation box 1 until the entire fermentation box 1 is filled.

[0024] During the tea leaf laying process, once the tea leaves have moved to the feeding end of the feeding belt 7, the moving support 6 is then moved to ensure the quality of the laying. When reversing the feeding belt 7 to feed the other end, it is also necessary to wait for the tea leaves on the feeding belt 7 to be in place. For the space directly below the feeding hopper 2, the feeding of the feeding belt 4 is stopped first, and then the moving support 6 is moved. After the moving support 6 is in place, the feeding belt 7 is controlled to replenish the tea leaves.

[0025] Baffles 11 are installed on the top of both ends of the movable support 6. The baffles 11 can limit the amount of tea leaves falling. When tea leaves accumulate on the feeding belt 7, the amount of tea leaves can be stabilized by the baffles 11.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, to ensure the stability of the movement of the movable support 6, support wheels 8 are rotatably arranged on both sides of the movable support 6. A movable motor 9 is installed on the movable support 6 to drive the rotation of the support wheels 8. A support rail 5 is provided on the top of the inner side wall of the fermentation tank 1, and the support wheels 8 are arranged within the support rail 5. By setting the support rail 5, the support wheels 8 are ensured to be within the support rail 5. When the movable motor 9 drives one support wheel 8 to rotate, it can drive the remaining five support wheels 8 to rotate, realizing the axial movement of the movable support 6 in the fermentation tank 1.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, to improve the stability of the movement of the support wheel 8, an annular protrusion is coaxially fixed to the inner side wall of the support wheel 8, and the end wall of the annular protrusion fits against the end wall of the support rail 5. Through the limiting of the annular protrusion and the support rail 5, the support wheels 8 on both sides of the movable bracket 6 can be adapted to the support rail 5, realizing the axial limiting of the support wheel 8.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a supporting mesh frame is fixedly installed inside the movable bracket 6. The inner top wall of the feeding belt 7 is attached to the top surface of the supporting mesh frame. A feeding motor 10 is installed on the movable bracket 6 to drive the feeding belt 7 to rotate. The feeding motor 10 drives the belt roller to rotate, and the belt roller drives the feeding belt 7 to rotate, thus laying and feeding tea leaves onto the feeding belt 7. The supporting mesh frame ensures that the feeding belt 7 is in a stable state.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. Pressure plates 12 are fixedly installed on the inner sidewalls of the movable support 6, with the bottom ends of the pressure plates 12 abutting the top surface of the feeding conveyor belt 7. By installing pressure plates 12 inside the movable support 6, the pressure plates 12 seal the gaps on both sides of the feeding conveyor belt 7, preventing tea leaves from falling from both sides of the feeding conveyor belt 7 and ensuring the quality of the feeding.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown. The feeding hopper 2 has an inverted frustum structure and is a shell structure. A auger shaft 3 is horizontally rotatably installed inside the feeding hopper 2, located at the inner bottom of the feeding hopper 2. The auger shaft 3 is installed inside the feeding hopper 2 and is driven to rotate by a motor installed on the feeding hopper 2. After the tea leaves enter the feeding hopper 2, the rotation of the auger shaft 3 disperses the tea leaves in the feeding hopper 2 and pushes the tea leaves from one side of the feeding hopper 2 to the other side of the feeding hopper 2, so that the tea leaves can fill the entire bottom of the feeding hopper and ensure even distribution, thus optimizing the thickness of the tea leaves on the feeding belt 7.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, support rods 14 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of both ends of the movable support 6. The support rods 14 are arranged horizontally, and rake rods 15 are vertically fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rods 14. The rake rods 15 are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the support rods 14. As the movable support 6 moves along the inside of the fermentation box 1, it drives the support rods 14 and the rake rods 15 to move. During the movement, the rake rods 15 rake the tea leaves to ensure that the tea leaves are spread evenly.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, to ensure the strength of the support rod 14, a plurality of connecting rods 13 are provided between the movable bracket 6 and the support rod 14, and the connecting rods 13 are distributed at both ends of the support rod 14.
