A storage area 2 is provided on one side of the frame 1, and five sliding grooves 3 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the storage area 2. Each of the five sliding grooves 3 has a lead screw 4 connected to the drive motor 15 on one side of its inner wall. The drive motor 15 controls the lifting height of the curtain component 5 through the lead screw 4. The baffle 18 contacts and seals the gap between adjacent sliding blocks 19. A curtain component 5 is provided between two sliding grooves 3. The curtain component 5 includes a curtain 16. One end of the curtain 16 is fixed to the storage area 2, and the other end moves with the sliding block 19 to form an adjustable ventilation opening. A sliding plate 17 is provided at one end of the curtain 16, and sliding blocks 19 are provided at both ends of the sliding plate 17. One of the sliding blocks 19 is connected to the lead screw 4.

[0016] One end of the curtain 16 is bolted to one side of the inner wall of the storage area 2. The sliding block 19 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 3. A baffle 18 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the bottom of the sliding block 19. The baffle 18 of the square curtain 5 presses the sliding block 19 of the lower curtain 5 to prevent air leakage. The baffle 18 in the upper curtain 5 and the sliding block 19 in the lower curtain 5 are in contact with each other. The five slide grooves 3 on the other side of the inner wall of the storage area 2 are bolted with slide rods 8. The sliding block 19 slides freely on the slide rods 8. The auxiliary screw 4 realizes the dual-side synchronous control of the curtain 5. Another sliding block 19 is slidably connected to the outside of the slide rod 8.

[0017] The storage area 2 has a ventilation slot 9 on one side of its inner wall. The airflow generated by the blower 7 enters the storage area 2 through the ventilation slot 9. The dust screen 10 filters impurities. The dust screen 10 is installed inside the ventilation slot 9 by bolts. The dust screen 10 covers the entrance of the ventilation slot 9 to prevent foreign objects from entering the placement tank 11 and damaging the heating tube 12 or the blower 7. The ventilation slot 9 facilitates the interconnection between the storage area 2 and the placement tank 11.

[0018] The outer wall of the placement tank 11 is bolted with a cover plate 6, and two blowers 7 are bolted to the outer wall of the cover plate 6. The blowers 7 are preferably EBM-Papst 615 centrifugal fans, which are forced air supply devices used to deliver heated or cooled air to the storage area 2. The air outlet of the blowers 7 extends into the interior of the placement tank 11. Multiple heating tubes 12 are bolted to the interior of the placement tank 11. The heating tubes 12 are preferably stainless steel finned heating tubes. The heating tubes 12 are used to heat the air in the placement tank 11. Two water supply pipes 14 are inserted into the outer wall of the frame 1, and a continuous bend 13 is inserted between the two water supply pipes 14. The water supply pipes 14 are inlet / outlet water interfaces, and the continuous bend 13 is a serpentine metal pipe used to introduce cold water or hot medium, so that the airflow blown into the storage area 2 is cold air, which inhibits tea fermentation. The continuous bend 13 is located inside the placement tank 11.

[0019] Working principle: When using this foraging trough, the corresponding drive motor 15 can be started according to the foraging requirements. When the drive motor 15 starts, it will rotate the lead screw 4. The rotating lead screw 4 will slide the sliding block 19 inside the slide trough 3, causing the slide plate 17 to move one end of the curtain 16 to the other end of the storage area 2, so that the curtain 5 is unfolded. After the curtain 5 is unfolded, the worker can spread the tea leaves on the unfolded curtain 16. When multiple curtains 5 are unfolded, the baffle 18 in the upper curtain 5 will contact the slide plate 17 on the lower curtain 5. Then the blower 7 is started, and the blower 7 will fill the placement trough 11 with airflow. The airflow is blown onto the tea leaves on the curtain 16 through the ventilation duct 9 to dry the tea leaves. Furthermore, during the air-drying process, the heating tube 12 can be activated as needed, turning the airflow entering the storage area 2 into hot air to promote tea withering. Conversely, cooling water can be introduced into the continuous curved pipe 13 through the water supply pipe 14, turning the airflow into the storage area 2 into cold air to inhibit tea fermentation. At the same time, when using this device, the lifting and lowering adjustment of the curtain 5 can be achieved by driving the lead screw 4 and the sliding block 19 through the drive motor 15. Moreover, the combination design of multiple sets of sliding grooves 3 and sliding rods 8 allows the multi-layer curtain 16 to open and close independently or synchronously, forming ventilation gaps at different heights, accurately matching the stage requirements of tea storage, avoiding the temperature and humidity fluctuation problems of traditional fixed storage troughs, and improving the conversion efficiency of active substances in fresh leaves.
