Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kneading machine technology, specifically a linkage-type tea processing kneading device. Background Technology
[0002] Tea, commonly known as tea, generally includes the leaves and buds of the tea plant. Based on the season of harvesting, it can be divided into spring tea, summer tea, autumn tea, and winter tea. Various types of raw or refined tea leaves are further processed into processed teas, including scented tea, compressed tea, extracted tea, medicinal and health tea, tea-based foods, and tea-containing beverages. The rolling machine is a core piece of equipment in the tea industry used to break down the cell structure of tea leaves and shape them. It uses mechanical pressure to curl the tea leaves and promote the release of their internal components. Modern equipment generally uses a hinged rod linkage system and threaded adjustment components to achieve precise control of rolling pressure, and is equipped with an automated control system to adjust the process parameters of the rolling operation. A typical structure includes three main modules: a rolling disc, a pressure cover, and a power transmission device. Some models integrate heating elements and shock absorption mechanisms to improve processing stability.
[0003] In the prior art, CN215736710U discloses a continuous tea processing device capable of uniform kneading, which relates to the field of tea processing technology. This continuous tea processing device capable of uniform kneading includes a device body, support feet, a rotating component, and a kneading drum. A pressing component is installed at the upper end of the rotating component and inside the kneading drum. Kneading protrusions are installed on the inner and outer surfaces of the device body. A replacement structure is provided at the connection between the kneading protrusions and the device body. A discharge handle is installed at the lower end of the device body, and a discharge plate is installed at the lower end of the device body.
[0004] Currently, linked tea processing kneading devices generally use an integrated kneading disc (the device body and kneading protrusions are combined as one unit). This structure makes it difficult to adjust the kneading time according to actual needs. Therefore, detachable kneading protrusions are set up to increase the number of kneading protrusions or replace them with kneading protrusions of different sizes as needed. However, the kneading protrusions are generally fixed with mounting bolts. Since there are many kneading protrusions, installing multiple kneading protrusions requires tightening a large number of mounting bolts, and tightening the mounting bolts also requires the use of special tools. Therefore, the convenience and practicality of using linked tea processing kneading devices are reduced. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a linkage-type tea processing and kneading device to solve the problem of the cumbersome use of the existing linkage-type tea processing and kneading device.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a linkage-type tea processing kneading device, comprising a device body with an open top, a kneading component disposed above the device body, and a rotating component disposed to drive the kneading component to rotate, kneading protrusions arranged in a circumferential array above the bottom of the device body, two insert rods fixedly disposed at the bottom of the kneading protrusions, a through-hole being provided on one side of each insert rod, a through-hole being provided at a corresponding position of each insert rod on the device body, a turntable frame rotatably connected to the bottom of the device body, a limit rod being fixedly disposed at a corresponding position of each limit hole on the turntable frame, a discharge port being provided on the bottom wall inside the device body, the discharge port being located in the central area of the device body, a sealing plate rotatably connected to the bottom of the device body, and a fixed frame being fixedly disposed, the sealing plate being adapted to the discharge port, a cylinder rotatably connected to the fixed frame, the piston rod end of the cylinder being rotatably connected to the bottom of the sealing plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This application sets up detachable kneading protrusions and sets up a turntable frame to fix them.

[0022] 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.
[0023] Example: Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for a linkage-type tea processing kneading device, including a device body 1 with an open top, a kneading component 2 above the device body 1, and a rotating component 3 for driving the kneading component 2 to rotate. Inside the device body 1, above the bottom, are kneading protrusions 4 arranged in a circular array. Two insertion rods 5 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the kneading protrusions 4. A through-hole 8 is opened on one side of each insertion rod 5. A through-hole 6 is opened at the corresponding position of each insertion rod 5 on the device body 1. A turntable frame 7 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the device body 1. A limiting rod 9 is fixedly installed at the corresponding position of each limiting hole 8 on the turntable frame 7. A discharge port is opened on the bottom wall inside the device body 1, located in the central area of the device body 1. A sealing plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the device body 1, and a fixing frame is fixedly installed. The sealing plate is adapted to the discharge port. A cylinder is rotatably connected to the fixing frame, and the piston rod end of the cylinder is rotatably connected to the bottom of the sealing plate.
[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an external gear ring 10 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the turntable frame 7, and a gear 11 and a worm 12 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the device body 1. A worm wheel 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the gear 11, and the worm wheel 13 is meshed with the worm 12. A rocking plate is fixedly installed at the movable end of the worm 12.
[0025] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, the top of the limiting rod 9 is set as an inclined slope, and the top wall inside the insertion hole 6 is provided with an inclined slope with the same inclination angle as the top of the limiting rod 9.
[0026] Specifically, the inclined surfaces of the limiting rod 9 and the inner wall of the insertion hole 6 are designed to increase the stability of the turntable frame 7 in fixing the kneading protrusion 4 using the limiting rod 9, so that the turntable frame 7 has a downward pulling force, thereby improving the stability of fixing the kneading protrusion 4. The limiting hole 8 has a small diameter. Although some tea leaves fall into the limiting hole 8, the number is small and the limiting hole 8 is a through design, so it can be ignored.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the rotating assembly 3 includes a mounting sleeve 301. A fixed rod 302 arranged in a circular array is fixedly disposed on the outside of the mounting sleeve 301. A connecting rod 303 is rotatably connected to the end of the fixed rod 302. The end of the connecting rod 303 away from the fixed rod 302 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the device body 1.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the kneading assembly 2 includes a kneading barrel 201 fixed inside the mounting sleeve 301. A pressing plate 202 is slidably arranged inside the kneading barrel 201. A buffer is provided on the top of the pressing plate 202. A threaded rod 203 is provided on the top of the buffer. A threaded sleeve 204 is threadedly sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 203. An L-shaped mounting bracket 205 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the fixing rod 302. The threaded sleeve 204 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the mounting bracket 205.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the mounting bracket 205 has two openings on its upper part, and guide rod 15 and threaded rod 203 are respectively installed in the two openings. A horizontal plate is fixed between the bottom ends of guide rod 15 and threaded rod 203.
[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the buffer includes two buffer rods 14 fixedly installed at the bottom of the extrusion plate 202. A stop block is fixedly installed at the top of the buffer rod 14. The bottom ends of the guide rod 15 and the threaded rod 203 are both provided with buffer grooves. A stop groove is formed on the top wall inside the buffer groove. The buffer rod 14 slides in the cavity of the buffer groove, and the stop block slides in the cavity of the stop groove. A spring 16 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the buffer rod 14. The spring 16 is located between the extrusion plate 202 and the cross plate.
[0031] Working principle: The tea material is put into the kneading barrel 201, and then the threaded sleeve 204 is rotated. The threaded sleeve 204 drives the extrusion plate 202 to descend and extrude the material through the threaded rod 203. Then, the rotating component 3 drives the kneading barrel 201 to move or move, so that the kneading barrel 201 rotates along the inner edge of the device body 1, while driving the tea to knead along the kneading protrusion 4 until the kneading is completed. Then, the sealing plate is opened by the cylinder, and the tea can be discharged from the outlet by manual cleaning.
[0032] Before using the device body 1, the user can install the kneading protrusion 4 and make the insertion rod 5 on the kneading protrusion 4 pass through the corresponding insertion hole 6 cavity. Then, rotate the worm gear 12, which drives the gear 11 to rotate through the worm wheel 13. The gear 11 drives the turntable frame 7 to rotate through the external gear ring 10. In this way, the limiting rod 9 on the turntable frame 7 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 8 cavity, thereby completing the fixation of the kneading protrusion 4. This structure can fix multiple kneading protrusions 4 at the same time, and conversely, it can quickly loosen the fixation of multiple kneading protrusions 4.
[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
