Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tea utensil technology and relates to a tea dregs collection device. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, tea drinking has become an increasingly popular way for people to relax, chat with friends, and conduct business. Tea tables are commonly found in offices and living rooms to hold teapots, teacups, and other tea-making tools. However, traditional tea tables are often limited in function; while some can drain water, they cannot collect tea leaves. The common method for disposing of tea leaves is to simply pour them into the trash can. This easily leads to bacterial growth when the leaves mix with other garbage, especially in summer, attracting flies and mosquitoes and causing unpleasant odors. Furthermore, tea leaves have many uses in daily life, such as making tea eggs, tea pillows, absorbing odors, and foot baths; simply throwing them away results in significant waste.

[0003] Therefore, in daily life, a special tea residue bin is usually placed next to the tea table to collect tea residue. This tea residue bin filters out the tea water, leaving the tea residue, which can then be recycled. For example, Chinese Patent CN203682286U discloses a water-filtering tea residue bin, which includes a bin body, a bin lid, and a filter basin. The filter basin is placed inside the bin body. When in use, tea water containing tea leaves is poured directly onto the filter basin. After filtration, the tea residue is separated and left in the filter basin. After the tea residue dries, it can be recycled.

[0004] However, current tea residue collection devices such as tea residue buckets have the following drawbacks: on the one hand, because tea residue has a high water content, the existing method of collecting it by air drying is prone to odor, bacterial growth, and is unhygienic; on the other hand, air drying takes a long time, resulting in low collection efficiency and inconvenience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a tea dregs collection device. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is how to make the collection and processing of tea dregs hygienic and efficient.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A tea dregs collection device includes a base and a disc-shaped body disposed on the base. A drainage hole is provided on the bottom of the disc. The device is characterized in that a tea dregs collection port is also provided on the bottom of the disc, and a heat-conducting plate capable of generating heat is fixed on the bottom of the disc. The heat-conducting plate is located between the drainage hole and the tea dregs collection port, and the surface height of the heat-conducting plate on the bottom of the disc is lower than the opening height of the tea dregs collection port on the bottom of the disc, but higher than or equal to the opening height of the drainage hole on the bottom of the disc. A tea dregs recycling chamber communicating with the tea dregs collection port is provided in the base.

[0007] This device, based on a disc with drainage holes at the bottom, incorporates a tea residue collection port and a heat-conducting plate at the bottom. When tea water mixed with tea residue needs to be recycled, this design allows the tea water to be poured onto the heat-conducting plate. Since both the drainage holes and the heat-conducting plate are located at the bottom of the disc, and the surface height of the heat-conducting plate is lower than the opening of the tea residue collection port but higher than or equal to the opening of the drainage holes, the tea water can flow out of the disc through the drainage holes without entering the tea residue collection port. During this process, the heat-conducting plate heats up, drying the remaining tea residue. Because the tea residue collection port is also on the disc, and the base contains a tea residue recycling chamber connected to the collection port, the dried tea residue can be directly swept into the collection port without the need for additional tools. This makes the entire collection process highly efficient. Meanwhile, because the heat-conducting plate is located between the drain hole and the tea residue collection port, this design prevents the tea residue from passing through the drain hole during cleaning, thus avoiding clogging and improving collection efficiency. Therefore, this device, through the above design, can dry the tea residue using a drying method. Compared to existing air-drying methods, this makes the tea residue collection process not only faster and more efficient, but also less prone to bacterial growth and odor, making it more hygienic. Furthermore, after drying, the residue can be directly transported to the tea residue recycling bin through the collection port, completing the process in one step, making subsequent collection and processing very convenient and the entire collection process highly efficient.

[0008] In addition, this device can be embedded in the tabletop of a tea table or placed independently on the tabletop, making it widely applicable and versatile.

[0009] In the aforementioned tea residue collection device, the disc is round or square, with a circular or square trough at the center of its bottom. The drain hole and heat-conducting plate are located within this trough. A conical surface, inclined towards the trough, is formed between the edge of the trough and the side wall of the disc, and the tea residue collection port is located on this conical surface. This design, combining the trough with the conical surface and the positions of the drain hole and heat-conducting plate, allows tea water to collect more effectively at the heat-conducting plate, resulting in higher filtration and drying efficiency of the tea residue and thus facilitating efficient collection. Furthermore, the tea residue collection port is located on the conical surface, relatively far from the drain hole and heat-conducting plate, which helps prevent untreated tea residue from being accidentally poured into the collection port.

[0010] In the aforementioned tea dregs collection device, the heat-conducting plate is circular and located at the center of the settling tank. The drain holes and tea dregs collection openings are distributed on both sides of the heat-conducting plate and arranged along the same diameter line. This design ensures that the drain holes and tea dregs collection openings are separated by a relatively large distance via the heat-conducting plate, preventing the tea dregs from passing through the drain holes during cleaning. This eliminates the need to deliberately avoid the drain holes during cleaning, making collection more convenient and improving collection efficiency.

[0011] In the aforementioned tea dregs collection device, the tea dregs collection port is arc-shaped, and the conical surface has a notch connecting the settling trough and the tea dregs collection port. The notch is V-shaped, and its bottom surface is a guide surface that slopes upwards from the bottom of the settling trough towards the edge of the tea dregs collection port. This arc-shaped design results in a large opening area for the tea dregs collection port, facilitating the input of tea dregs. Simultaneously, the combined shape of the notch and the guide surface allows the dried tea dregs to be quickly guided into the collection port, thereby improving the efficiency of tea dregs cleaning and collection.

[0012] In the aforementioned tea dregs collection device, a sliding groove is provided within the base. This groove is located below the tea dregs collection port, with one end extending through one side of the base. A tea dregs recycling box is slidably disposed within the groove. The inner cavity of the tea dregs recycling box communicates with the tea dregs collection port and serves as a tea dregs recycling chamber. In this design, the tea dregs recycling chamber can slide out of the base, facilitating subsequent packaging of the tea dregs and further improving collection efficiency.

[0013] In the aforementioned tea dregs collection device, a heater is fixed inside the base. The heater is an electric heating tube, which is attached to the lower surface of a heat-conducting plate. The heat-conducting plate is made of a heat-conducting material, and the heater enables it to generate heat, thereby achieving the drying process of the tea dregs. Alternatively, the electric heating tube can be replaced by various existing heaters such as electric heating blocks or electric heating plates.

[0014] In the aforementioned tea dregs collection device, a drain pipe is provided inside the base, with one end fixed to the lower opening of the drain hole and the other end passing through the side of the base; alternatively, a wastewater collection tank is provided inside the base, located below the drain hole. With this drain pipe design, it can be directly connected to a sewer pipe for wastewater to be discharged; of course, if installation is limited by the environment, a wastewater collection tank can also be used.

[0015] In the aforementioned tea residue collection device, the base has an installation opening, and the disc is embedded in the installation opening. Below the edge of the installation opening, the base has several support columns arranged circumferentially around the installation opening, with the upper ends of the support columns resting against the lower surface of the disc. An installation hole is located at the center of the bottom of the disc, and the heat-conducting plate is embedded and fixed within the installation hole. This design allows the base, disc, and heat-conducting plate to be disassembled separately. This allows for the use of different materials, such as wood for the base, plastic for the disc, and a heat-conducting plate, thus helping to control manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the choice of materials is flexible and can meet different market needs.

[0016] In the aforementioned tea residue collection device, a heat dissipation window is provided on one side of the base, and a cooling fan is fixed at the heat dissipation window; a storage compartment is provided on the side of the base. This cooling fan design effectively dissipates heat from the heat-conducting plate, preventing excessive temperature buildup inside the base. The storage compartment design allows for the storage of tools such as teacups and tea brushes, giving the device a storage function.

[0017] In the aforementioned tea residue collection device, the side of the base is provided with a wiring hole for the power cord to pass through; the platform of the base is provided with a control switch panel electrically connected to the heater. The wiring hole facilitates wiring arrangement. The control switch panel can be used for heater on / off operation and temperature adjustment.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, this tea residue collection device has the following advantages: Through the combined design of drainage holes, tea residue collection ports and heat conduction plates, this device can process tea residue by drying. After drying, the tea residue can be directly recycled and collected through the tea residue recycling bin. Drying and recycling are completed in one step, and the entire tea residue collection and processing process is very efficient, convenient, clean and hygienic. Attached Figure Description
