Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea drying technology, specifically a flip-plate type tea dryer. Background Technology

[0002] Tea leaves are the leaves and buds of the tea plant. The beverage made from them is one of the world's three major beverages. Originating in China, tea leaves can be dried using a flip-plate dryer during the production process.

[0003] However, in the process of using existing dryers, smoothing rollers are installed on the conveyor belt to smooth the tea leaves poured onto it. Since the height of the smoothing rollers cannot be adjusted, a smoothing roller that is too low will affect the conveying effect of the tea leaves, while a smoothing roller that is too high will affect the feeding of the tea leaves and easily cause blockages. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a flip-type tea drying machine to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the height of the smoothing roller cannot be adjusted.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flip-plate type tea drying machine, comprising:

[0006] A tilting plate dryer, wherein an adjustment component is provided in the middle of the conveyor belt of the tilting plate dryer, and an auxiliary component is provided at one end of the conveyor belt of the tilting plate dryer;

[0007] The adjustment assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder, the output rod of which is fixedly connected to a rack, a guide block passing through the inside of the rack, a gear meshing with the outer wall of the rack, a fixed rod passing through the middle of the gear, a connecting plate fixedly connected to one end of the gear, a rotating rod passing through the end of the connecting plate away from the gear, a servo motor mounted on one end of the rotating rod, and a smoothing roller connected to the middle outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0008] Preferably, the auxiliary component includes a shaft, with side blocks fixedly installed at both ends of the shaft, a support plate connected to the outer wall of the shaft, a base plate fixedly installed below the support plate, and handles fixedly connected to both sides of the end of the support plate away from the shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the tilting dryer, the rack is slidably connected to the guide block, and the guide block is fixedly connected to the tilting dryer.

[0010] Preferably, the gear is rotatably connected to the fixed rod, the fixed rod is fixedly connected to the tilting dryer, and the hydraulic cylinders are synchronously controlled by a controller.

[0011] Preferably, the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the connecting plate, and the output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the rotating rod.

[0012] Preferably, the smoothing roller is fixedly connected to the rotating rod, and the side block is fixedly connected to the flip-type dryer.

[0013] Preferably, the support plate is rotatably connected to the shaft, and the end of the bottom plate away from the support plate abuts against the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the flip-type dryer.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] (1) The new tea drying machine can adjust the setting of the components. According to the amount of tea feed and the blockage, the hydraulic cylinder can be started by the controller. The output rod of the hydraulic cylinder leads the rack to move along the guide block. The guide block drives the gear to rotate around the fixed rod. The gear drives the connecting plate to rotate. The connecting plate drives the rotating rod and the smoothing roller to rotate. The height of the smoothing roller can be adjusted. The operation is simple and quick. It is convenient to adjust the smoothing roller to a suitable height, so that the conveyor belt conveying efficiency is the highest and there will be no blockage. It is highly practical.

[0016] (2) With the addition of auxiliary components, when the staff pours out the tea leaves from the bag, the tea leaves need to be transported away by the conveyor belt before the remaining tea leaves in the bag can be poured onto the conveyor belt. If too much tea leaves are poured in at once, it is easy to spill them. Now, the bag can be placed on the support plate with the bag opening facing the flip-type dryer. While holding the handle, the staff can hold the two corners of the bag and rotate the support plate upward around the shaft. Due to gravity, the tea leaves in the bag slide into the conveyor belt. This utilizes the lever principle, which reduces the labor intensity. The staff does not need to continuously lift the back end of the bag and wait for the tea leaves in the bag to be poured onto the conveyor belt, and the bag will not be sent away by the conveyor belt.

The smoothing roller 29 is connected to the middle outer wall of the rotating rod 27. The smoothing roller 29 can smooth the tea leaves, preventing too much tea leaves from entering the flip-type dryer 01 at once.

[0027] Furthermore, the auxiliary component 03 includes a shaft 31, with side blocks 32 fixedly installed at both ends of the shaft 31. A support plate 33 is connected to the outer wall of the shaft 31. When the support plate 33 is rotated upward around the shaft 31, the tea leaves in the bag slide onto the conveyor belt due to gravity. A base plate 34 is fixedly installed below the support plate 33, which supports the support plate 33 and ensures that the support plate 33 can be in a horizontal state. Handles 35 are fixedly connected to both sides of the end of the support plate 33 away from the shaft 31.

[0028] Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the tilting dryer 01. The hydraulic cylinder 21 provides power.

The side block 32 is fixedly connected to the flip-type dryer 01 to ensure the stability of the side block 32 position.

[0032] Furthermore, the support plate 33 is rotatably connected to the shaft 31. When the support plate 33 is rotated upward around the shaft 31, the tea leaves in the bag slide onto the conveyor belt due to gravity. The end of the bottom plate 34 away from the support plate 33 rests against the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the flip-type dryer 01. The bottom plate 34 provides support for the support plate 33, ensuring that the support plate 33 can be in a horizontal state.

[0033] Working Principle: During operation, based on the amount of tea leaves fed and the degree of blockage, the controller activates the hydraulic cylinder 21. The output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 21 drives the rack 22 to move along the guide block 23. The guide block 23 drives the gear 24 to rotate around the fixed rod 25. The gear 24 drives the connecting plate 26 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod 27 and the smoothing roller 29 to rotate. This allows for adjustment of the height of the smoothing roller 29. The servo motor 28 is then activated, and its output drives the rotating rod 27 to rotate. The rotating rod 27 then drives the smoothing roller 29 to rotate. The bag is placed on the support plate 33 with its opening facing the flip-type dryer 01. While holding the handle 35, the operator grips the two corners of the bag, rotating the support plate 33 upwards around the shaft 31. Due to gravity, the tea leaves in the bag slide onto the conveyor belt. This is the complete working principle of this utility model.
