Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing technology, and in particular to a tea cake pressing and forming device. Background Technology

[0002] Tea is a beverage made from the buds and leaves of the tea plant that can be brewed directly. Its components include catechins, cholesterol, caffeine, inositol, folic acid, and pantothenic acid, which are beneficial to health. There are many types of tea, including green tea, white tea, yellow tea, oolong tea, black tea, and dark tea. In the process of processing tea into tea cakes, a tea cake pressing device is needed.

[0003] To this end, patent CN221979942U discloses a tea cake pressing and forming device, belonging to the field of tea production and processing technology. The device includes a stamping device and a forming device. The stamping device includes a stamping platform, a top plate, and a cylinder. Four support columns are symmetrically arranged at the corners of the stamping platform. The top plate is mounted on the four support columns. The cylinder is fixed to the top plate, and the piston rod of the cylinder passes through the top plate to fix a tamping hammer below. The cylinder is externally connected to a control system. The forming device includes a top mold, a forming mold, a bottom mold, and a feeding tray. The top mold is located on the bottom surface of the tamping hammer and is an integral part composed of several punches. The forming mold is located on the stamping platform and has several shaped molds. The bottom mold is detachably connected above the forming mold and has several concave molds running through it. The concave molds match the punches. The feeding tray is divided into several feeding boxes with a funnel-shaped structure. The bottom of the feeding box is aligned with the upper edge of the concave mold. The cylinder controls the tamping hammer to move downwards, allowing the material to be formed in the mold. The structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0004] Existing tea cake pressing devices do not allow for proper tapping of the tea cake mold before pressing, resulting in uneven distribution of tea leaves within the mold and causing chipped corners in the pressed tea cakes. Utility Model Content
