Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] In the processing of honeysuckle tea, existing processing equipment has significant deficiencies in several key aspects, making it difficult to meet the demands for high-quality and high-efficiency processing. Specific problems are as follows:

[0003] Traditional methods have significant shortcomings in the cooling process after fixation (or withering). Fixation, a core step in tea production, involves temperatures reaching around 300 degrees Celsius. After fixation, the tea leaves need to be immediately spread out to dissipate heat and release steam. However, currently, the common practice is to spread the fixed leaves on wooden or metal plates for natural cooling, which is slow. If not turned promptly, the leaves are prone to yellowing due to sustained high temperatures, severely reducing tea quality. Manual turning is not only labor-intensive but also prone to uneven handling, resulting in inconsistent heating and cooling of the tea leaves, ultimately leading to inconsistent product quality and a failure to guarantee batch-to-batch stability.

[0004] Even with some equipment equipped with cooling devices, such as a drum structure with a fan, which cools the tea leaves by accelerating airflow after they are added through the feed inlet, a fatal flaw remains: after the leaves are poured into the drum, one side often adheres to the inner wall of the drum while the other side is exposed to the air. This contact condition causes the exposed side to cool much faster than the adhered side, resulting in significant uneven cooling. This directly affects the color, aroma, and taste of the tea, making it difficult to meet the processing standards for high-quality honeysuckle tea.

[0005] Regarding impurity handling, the existing processing equipment's impurity removal mechanisms are also outdated. The processing of honeysuckle tea generates impurities such as dust and debris. If these impurities are mixed into the finished product, they will severely affect the tea's quality. While there is a need for filtering tea impurities, existing impurity removal equipment is ill-suited to the processing scenarios of different types and sizes of tea leaves. Because honeysuckle tea differs from other teas in shape and size, general-purpose impurity removal equipment often fails to accurately separate its impurities. This results in either over-filtration leading to tea loss or incomplete filtration leaving impurities, increasing the workload and processing costs of subsequent manual screening and reducing production efficiency.

[0006] Existing honeysuckle tea processing equipment cannot meet the demands of modern production in terms of efficiency, quality, and adaptability. Therefore, a new type of processing equipment that can solve problems such as uneven heat dissipation, poor impurity removal adaptability, and unreasonable structure has become the key to improving the processing level of honeysuckle tea.

[0007] Furthermore, on the one hand, there are differences in understanding among those skilled in the art; on the other hand, the applicant studied a large number of documents and patents when making this utility model, but due to space limitations, not all details and contents were listed in detail. However, this does not mean that this utility model does not have the features of these prior art. On the contrary, this utility model has all the features of the prior art, and the applicant reserves the right to add relevant prior art to the background art. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The following is a detailed explanation with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] This utility model provides a processing and production device for honeysuckle tea, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the invention includes a supporting body 100 and a processing component 200. The supporting body 100 has a processing space 101 for accommodating the processing component 200. At least one side of the supporting body 100 communicates with the processing space 101, allowing the processing component 200 to be pulled in and out of the processing space 101 from the side of the supporting body 100. A hot air blower 102 is located on the side of the supporting body 100 away from the end used for accessing the processing component 200. The hot air blower 102 communicates with the processing space 101, and an air duct 104 is provided between the hot air blower 102 and the processing space 101. This structural design makes loading and unloading the processing component 200 and removing honeysuckle tea leaves more convenient, allowing for quick addition of raw materials and removal of finished products, significantly shortening auxiliary operation time and improving processing efficiency. When adding honeysuckle tea leaves, operators can easily pull the processing component 200 out of the supporting body 100 to quickly add the raw materials. Meanwhile, the hot air blower 102 is located on the side of the supporting body 100 away from the inlet and outlet of the processing component 200. It is connected to the processing space 101 through the air duct 104, which can stably deliver hot air into the processing space 101, providing a continuous and stable heat source for the processing of honeysuckle tea, ensuring the temperature conditions of the processing environment, and facilitating the processing of tea leaves such as fixation and drying.

[0029] According to a preferred embodiment, a plurality of air ducts 104 are arranged in an arc-shaped, spaced pattern around the side of the supporting body 100. This arrangement allows hot air from the hot air blower 102 to enter the processing space 101 from multiple directions and positions, resulting in a more uniform distribution of hot air within the processing space 101 and preventing localized overheating or underheating. This ensures that the honeysuckle tea leaves in different locations within the processing assembly 200 are heated evenly, reducing differences in tea quality caused by uneven heating and improving overall processing quality. The air ducts 104 stably and evenly deliver the hot air generated by the hot air blower 102 into the processing space 101. This structure guarantees a continuous and stable heat source within the processing space 101, providing suitable temperature conditions for key processing steps such as withering and drying of the honeysuckle tea leaves.

[0030] According to a preferred embodiment, the processing component 200 is configured as a semi-cylindrical shape. A mesh filter 201 is provided at one end of the air duct 104 near the processing component 200. The semi-cylindrical structure allows the internal space of the processing component 200 to be relatively regular, facilitating the distribution of honeysuckle tea leaves within it. The mesh filter 201 allows the hot air delivered by the air duct 104 to smoothly enter the interior of the processing component 200, ensuring full contact with the honeysuckle tea leaves, while preventing the tea leaves from leaking out from that end, thus ensuring both heat transfer efficiency and preventing raw material loss.

[0031] According to a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, at least two opposing slides 105 are provided at the vertical end of the processing space 101. The slides 105 are arranged to pass through the supporting body 100 to the air duct 104. At least two opposing supporting platforms 202 are provided at the vertical end of the processing component 200, and the supporting platforms 202 fit into the slides 105. The cooperation between the slides 105 and the supporting platforms 202 provides stable guidance and support for the pulling movement of the processing component 200, making the processing component 200 move more smoothly when entering and exiting the processing space 101, avoiding tea spillage or damage to the device due to shaking, and ensuring the stability of the processing component 200 during processing, which is conducive to the smooth progress of the processing steps.

[0032] According to a preferred embodiment, a central rotating shaft 106 is also provided on one side of the support body 100 where the hot air blower 102 is located, penetrating through the support body 100 and the processing space 101. The central rotating shaft 106 is connected to a drive motor 107. The central rotating shaft 106 is coaxially arranged with the processing assembly 200. When the drive motor 107 drives the central rotating shaft 106 to rotate, since the central rotating shaft 106 is coaxial with the processing assembly 200, the honeysuckle tea leaves located within the processing assembly 200 are stirred and turned, allowing the tea leaves to continuously tumble during processing, thereby contacting the hot air more evenly, further improving the uniformity of heating, and ensuring consistent processing results.

[0033] According to a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a stirring member 109 is radially disposed within the processing space 101 on the central rotating shaft 106. The length of the stirring member 109 is less than or equal to the radius of the processing assembly 200. The stirring member 109 is arranged such that one end away from the central rotating shaft 106 has an end face for stirring the honeysuckle tea leaves and is in contact with the inner wall of the processing assembly 200. When the central rotating shaft 106 rotates, the stirring member 109 rotates with it, thus stirring the honeysuckle tea leaves within the processing assembly 200. The end face in contact with the inner wall can stir the tea leaves near the inner wall of the processing assembly 200, preventing uneven heating due to static accumulation of tea leaves and ensuring that all tea leaves are fully processed.

[0034] According to a preferred embodiment, the processing component 200 is further provided with a plurality of through holes 203 arranged at intervals along its circumference. The through holes 203 allow for more thorough heat exchange between the interior of the processing component 200 and the external processing space 101. Hot air can enter various areas of the processing component 200 through the through holes 203, and also facilitates the removal of impurities that may be present in the honeysuckle tea leaves during processing, thereby improving the quality of the honeysuckle tea leaves. These impurities include, for example, dust and debris. This invention removes these impurities from the processing component 200 through the through holes 203, thus improving the purity and quality of the honeysuckle tea leaves and reducing subsequent impurity removal processes.

[0035] According to a preferred embodiment, the vertically downward end of the processing space 101 is configured as a collection chamber 108. The collection chamber 108 is located at the vertically downward end of the processing component 200 and communicates with the interior of the processing component 200 through several through holes 203. The processed whole honeysuckle tea leaves, due to their relatively large volume, are stored in the processing component 200, while impurities, due to their small size and light weight, fall into the collection chamber 108 through the through holes 203 under their own gravity. This automatic collection method reduces the workload of manually collecting impurities, lowers the labor intensity of operators, and also prevents impurities from accumulating inside the processing component 200 and affecting the processing quality of the tea. The collection chamber 108 can centrally store impurities, facilitating subsequent unified processing and maintaining a clean processing environment.

[0036] According to a preferred embodiment, a discharge port 103 for removing impurities is provided on the side of the collecting chamber 108. When impurities accumulate to a certain level in the collecting chamber 108, the operator can easily remove the impurities through the discharge port 103. The discharge port 103 is reasonably positioned, simple and quick to operate, and requires no complicated disassembly process. It can quickly transfer impurities, ensuring the continuity of the processing flow and preventing excessive processing time wasted due to cleaning impurities.

[0037] According to a preferred embodiment, a handle 204 is provided at the end of the processing component 200 away from the hot air blower 102. The handle 204 is designed with the operator's convenience in mind, providing a convenient grip for pulling out the processing component 200. During the pulling process, the operator can hold the handle 204 to complete the operation of moving the processing component 200 in and out more easily and effortlessly. Especially when the processing component 200 contains a large amount of tea leaves, the handle 204 can distribute the force, preventing hand injuries to the operator and significantly improving the ease of operation of the device.
