Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aroma-enhancing machines, and in particular to a black tea aroma-enhancing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Black tea is a fully fermented tea, made from suitable new buds and leaves of tea trees through withering, rolling (or cutting), fermentation, and drying. During processing, chemical reactions centered on the enzymatic oxidation of tea polyphenols occur, producing new components such as theaflavins and thearubigins, as well as aroma substances. Aroma enhancement is a crucial step in black tea processing, aimed at increasing the concentration, purity, and uniqueness of the tea's aroma, making it more prominent, persistent, and meeting quality requirements.
[0003] Currently, traditional aroma-enhancing machines work by heating outside air before pouring it into the machine, allowing the hot air to penetrate the black tea and enhance its aroma. When outside air enters the machine, it first passes through a filter. However, with prolonged operation, the filter surface easily accumulates a large amount of dust, tea leaves, and other impurities, forming a dense layer of grime. If not cleaned promptly, the filter pores will gradually become clogged, leading to a significant decrease in airflow and reduced hot air circulation efficiency. This poor ventilation not only prolongs the aroma-enhancing cycle but can also cause localized overheating due to heat buildup, resulting in scorched tea leaves and severely impacting both the aroma-enhancing effect and the quality of the tea. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a black tea aroma enhancer, which aims to improve the problems in the prior art of not being able to clean the dust adhering to the filter surface in a timely manner, and the inability to effectively remove debris from the black tea during the aroma enhancement process.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A black tea aroma enhancement machine includes a machine body, a cabinet door hinged to the front of the machine body, support columns fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the machine body, multiple heating wires installed on the inner wall of the machine body, cleaning components provided on the left and right sides of the machine body, and a vibration component provided inside the machine body.
[0007] The cleaning assembly includes an air intake pipe and an exhaust pipe. The air intake pipe is fixedly connected to the right side of the machine body and an air intake fan is installed inside the air intake pipe. The exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the left side of the machine body and an exhaust fan is installed inside the exhaust pipe. Filters are slidably connected inside both the air intake pipe and the exhaust pipe. Two fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the top of both the air intake pipe and the exhaust pipe. Pins are slidably connected inside the two fixing blocks. Limiting rings are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the pins. Baffles are rotatably connected to the outer periphery of the limiting rings. A second spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pins. Two limiting blocks are fixedly connected to the end of the pin away from the baffle.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] The vibration assembly includes three rotating rods, all of which are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the machine body. A synchronous belt is fitted onto the outer wall of the three rotating rods. A motor is fixedly connected to the left side of the machine body. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the middle of one of the rotating rods. A cam is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod away from the machine body. A bracket is fixedly connected inside the machine body. Three support plates are fixedly connected to the inner side of the bracket. Multiple springs are fixedly connected to the top of each of the three support plates. A frame is fixedly connected to the top of each spring. Multiple sliders are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the frame. The sliders are slidably connected inside the bracket. A mesh frame is provided in the middle of the frame.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] One end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the side of the baffle away from the filter screen, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the fixing blocks;
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The pin is rotatably connected to the middle part of the baffle, and the baffle is slidably connected inside one of the fixed blocks;
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] The two limiting blocks are slidably connected to the middle of one of the fixed blocks, and a pull ring is fixedly connected to the end of the pin away from the fixed block;
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The filter screen is slidably connected between the two fixed blocks, and the pin passes through and is slidably connected inside the filter screen;
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0019] A collection frame is slidably connected to the top of the support plate;
[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] The cam abuts against the bottom of the frame.
[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. In this utility model, pulling the pull ring causes the pin to slide within the fixed block. The pin causes the baffle to slide and compress the second spring. When the pin disengages from the filter screen and the limiting block disengages from the fixed block, rotating the pin causes the limiting block to engage with the surface of the fixed block, preventing the second spring from pushing the baffle in the opposite direction, thus allowing the filter screen to be removed for cleaning. When the pin is stationary, the second spring supports the baffle, and the baffle supports the pin, preventing it from sliding freely and achieving the effect of fixing the filter screen.
[0024] 2. In this utility model, the starting motor drives the rotating rod to rotate. The three rotating rods are linked by the outer peripheral synchronous belt, so that the three cams rotate synchronously. When the cam rotates, its protruding part pushes the frame to move upward and stretches the first spring. The first spring generates a restoring force when it is stretched. When the protruding part disengages from the frame, the first spring drives the frame to move downward, forming a vibration. Through the continuous rotation of the cam, the frame moves up and down back and forth, so that the black tea is vibrated inside the frame, thus achieving the effect of screening out the tea leaves in the black tea, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers.

[0035] 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.
[0036] Reference Figures 1-6 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a black tea aroma enhancer, including a body 1, a cabinet door 3 hinged to the front of the body 1, support columns 2 fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the body 1, multiple heating wires 10 installed on the inner wall of the body 1, cleaning components provided on the left and right sides of the body 1, the cleaning components are used to clean the dust attached to the surface of the filter screen 11, and a vibration component is provided inside the body 1, the vibration component is used to sieve out tea leaves fragments in the black tea.
[0037] The cleaning assembly includes an air intake pipe 4 and an exhaust pipe 5. The air intake pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the right side of the body 1, and an intake fan 15 is installed inside the air intake pipe 4. The exhaust pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the left side of the body 1, and an exhaust fan 14 is installed inside the exhaust pipe 5. The controller starts the intake fan 15, the exhaust fan 14, and the heating wire 10. After the exhaust fan 14 exhausts the cold air inside, the intake fan 15 heats the cold air from the outside through the heating wire 10 and then delivers it into the body 1. Filters 11 are slidably connected inside both the air intake pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 5. Two fixing blocks 13 are fixedly connected to the top of both the air intake pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 5, and pins are slidably connected inside the two fixing blocks 13. 12. A limiting ring 25 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the pin 12. A baffle 24 is rotatably connected to the outer periphery of the limiting ring 25. A spring 22 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pin 12. Two limiting blocks 23 are fixedly connected to the end of the pin 12 away from the baffle 24. Pulling the pin 12 causes it to slide away from the filter screen 11. At this time, the sliding of the pin 12 will cause the baffle 24 to squeeze the spring 22. Then, rotating the pin 12 will cause the pin 12 to rotate in the middle of the baffle 24 due to the fixed limiting ring 25 on the outer periphery of the pin 12. This will cause the limiting block 23 to rotate, thereby causing the limiting block 23 to be stuck on the surface of the fixed block 13, preventing the spring 22 from driving the pin 12 to reset, thus facilitating the removal of the filter screen 11.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The vibration assembly includes three rotating rods 19, all rotatably connected to the inner wall of the body 1. A synchronous belt 18 is fitted onto the outer wall of each of the three rotating rods 19. A motor 6 is fixedly connected to the left side of the body 1, with its output end fixedly connected to the middle of one of the rotating rods 19. A cam 17 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod 19 furthest from the body 1. When the motor 6 is started by the controller, it drives one of the rotating rods 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the other two rotating rods 19 to rotate via the synchronous belt 18, thus causing all three cams 17 to rotate. A bracket 7 is fixedly connected inside the body 1, and three support plates 21 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the bracket 7. The tops of the three support plates 21 are all fixedly connected to... There are multiple springs 16, with a frame 20 fixedly connected to the top of each spring 16. Multiple sliders 27 are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the frame 20, and these sliders 27 are slidably connected inside the support 7. A mesh frame 9 is located in the middle of the frame 20. When the cam 17 rotates, its protruding part causes the frame 20 to move upward, thus stretching the springs 16. After being stretched, the springs 16 generate a force to return to their original shape. When the protruding part disengages from the frame 20, this force causes the frame 20 to move downward, thus achieving a vertical movement. By repeatedly rotating the cam 17, the black tea inside the frame 20 vibrates, facilitating the sieving of tea leaves. As the frame 20 moves, it causes the sliders 27 to slide within the grooves inside the support 7, preventing the frame 20 from moving in other directions.
[0039] Reference Figure 5 One end of the second spring 22 is fixedly connected to the side of the baffle 24 away from the filter screen 11, and the other end of the second spring 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the fixing blocks 13. When the baffle 24 slides, it will squeeze the second spring 22. When the baffle 24 is stationary, the second spring 22 will support the baffle 24 and prevent the baffle 24 from sliding at will.
[0040] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The pin 12 is rotatably connected to the middle of the baffle 24, and the baffle 24 is slidably connected to the inside of one of the fixed blocks 13. Pull the pin 12 so that it slides inside the fixed block 13. When it slides to a certain extent, rotate the pin 12 to fix the pin 12.
[0041] Reference Figure 5 Two limiting blocks 23 are slidably connected to the middle of one of the fixed blocks 13. A pull ring 26 is fixedly connected to the end of the pin 12 away from the fixed block 13. By pulling the pull ring 26, the pin 12 is moved. When the pin 12 moves the limiting block 23 away from the fixed block 13, the pin 12 is rotated so that the limiting block 23 is stuck on the surface of the fixed block 13, thereby fixing the pin 12.
[0042] Reference Figure 5The filter screen 11 is slidably connected between two fixed blocks 13, and the pin 12 passes through and is slidably connected inside the filter screen 11. The filter screen 11 can be disassembled and fixed by sliding the pin 12 inside the filter screen 11.
[0043] Reference Figure 7 A collection frame 8 is slidably connected to the top of the support plate 21. The collection frame 8 is used to collect the sieved black tea crumbs, and the coverage area of the collection frame 8 can collect the falling black tea crumbs.
[0044] Reference Figure 7 The cam 17 abuts against the bottom of the frame 20. The frame 20 moves up and down by the repeated rotation of the cam 17, which makes the black tea in the frame 20 vibrate, making it easier to sift out the broken pieces in the black tea.
[0045] Working principle: When the filter screen 11 needs cleaning, pulling the pull ring 26 causes the pin 12 to slide inside the fixing block 13. The sliding of the pin 12 causes the baffle 24 to slide, which in turn compresses the spring 22. When the pin 12 disengages from the filter screen 11 and the limiting block 23 disengages from the fixing block 13, rotating the pin 12 causes the limiting ring 25 to rotate inside the baffle 24, causing the limiting block 23 to lock onto the surface of the fixing block 13. This prevents the compressed spring 22 from pushing the baffle 24 in the opposite direction, thus facilitating the removal of the filter screen 11 for cleaning. When the pin 12 is stationary, the spring 22 supports the baffle 24, and the baffle 24 supports the pin 12, thus preventing the pin 12 from sliding freely and achieving the effect of fixing the filter screen 11.
[0046] When the black tea is infused with aroma inside the machine body 1, the motor 6 is started. The output of the motor 6 drives a rotating rod 19 to rotate. Since a synchronous belt 18 is fitted around the three rotating rods 19, when one rotating rod 19 rotates, it drives the other two rotating rods 19 to rotate together, thus achieving the effect of the three cams 17 starting to rotate. When the cam 17 rotates, its protruding part contacts the frame 20, thereby driving the frame 20 to move upward. At this time, when the frame 20 moves upward, it stretches the spring 16. After being stretched, the spring 16 generates a force to restore its original shape. This force acts on the frame 20. When the protruding part of the cam 17 disengages from the frame 20, the spring 16 drives the frame 20 to move downward, thus achieving a vibration effect. Through the repeated rotation of the cam 17, the frame 20 moves up and down back and forth, thereby creating a vibration effect inside the frame 20, and then achieving the effect of sifting out the tea debris.
