Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea storage technology, and in particular to a tea storage box with deoxygenation function. Background Technology

[0002] As a natural beverage, tea's quality is highly susceptible to environmental factors, especially oxygen. Oxygen causes oxidation reactions in tea leaves, affecting polyphenols, chlorophyll, vitamins, and aromatic compounds. This results in darkening of the tea's color, loss of aroma, deterioration of flavor, and loss of nutrients, severely impacting its shelf life and drinking value. Therefore, effectively isolating or removing oxygen during tea storage is a crucial technical step in maintaining its freshness and quality.

[0003] Currently, common tea preservation and oxygen removal technologies mainly rely on chemical oxygen absorbers. These oxygen absorbers (such as iron-based oxygen absorbers) consume oxygen in the storage environment by reacting with oxygen chemically. Although chemical oxygen absorbers are effective in removing oxygen, they have significant drawbacks in practical applications. First, oxygen absorbers are usually placed directly or simply isolated in the tea storage space, posing a potential risk of packaging damage or leakage of contents, which could contaminate the tea and affect food safety and tea flavor. Second, placing oxygen absorbers themselves occupies valuable storage space, reducing the actual loading capacity of the tea.

[0004] To address this, a tea storage box with deoxygenation function was proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the potential risk that the oxygen scavenger in the above-mentioned device may leak and thus contaminate the tea, this utility model is proposed.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tea storage box with deoxygenation function, including a box body, a placement component, and a suction component. The placement component is disposed inside the box body, and the suction component is disposed at the upper end of the box body. The placement component includes multiple sliding grooves, which are respectively opened on both sides of the inner wall of the box body. A placement plate is slidably connected inside each sliding groove. A placement drawer is slidably connected to both sides of the inner wall of the placement plate. A through hole is opened on the upper surface of each placement plate, and the lower end of each through hole extends into the interior of the placement drawer. A first handle is fixedly connected to the middle of the front outer wall of each placement drawer, and a second handle is fixedly connected to the middle of the front outer wall of each placement plate.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the tea storage box with deoxygenation function described in this utility model, the suction assembly includes an air pump, the exhaust end of the air pump is fixedly connected to a first connecting pipe, a one-way valve is provided in the middle of the first connecting pipe, and the suction end of the air pump is fixedly connected to a second connecting pipe.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the tea storage box with deoxygenation function described in this utility model, the lower end of the second connecting pipe extends through to the inner wall of the box body, and a Bourdon tube is provided at the front end of one side of the upper part of the box body, with the lower end of the Bourdon tube extending through to the interior of the box body.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the tea storage box with deoxygenation function described in this utility model, a humidity sensor and an oxygen concentration sensor are fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the inner wall of the box, a box door is hinged to the front end of the box, and a transparent observation window is provided in the middle of the box door.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the tea storage box with deoxygenation function described in this utility model, a third handle is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the front outer wall of the box door, a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the edge of the rear outer wall of the box door, and multiple latches are provided at the connection between the box door and one side outer wall of the box body.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the tea storage box with deoxygenation function described in this utility model, a control panel is fixedly connected to the upper part of the front end of one side of the outer wall of the box body. The air pump, humidity sensor, and oxygen concentration sensor are all electrically connected to the control panel. Support legs are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower surface of the box body, and support bases are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support legs.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this new tea storage box with deoxygenation function are as follows:

[0013] 1. The oxygen absorber is strictly and systematically placed in a specially designed drawer, ensuring complete physical isolation from the tea leaves and eliminating any risk of contamination. Users can easily replace the oxygen absorber by periodically removing the old drawer and inserting the new one, following the instructions. This process is not only extremely simple but also fast and safe. Furthermore, the drawer is cleverly designed into the internal space of the storage plate, avoiding encroachment on the main storage space and optimizing overall space utilization. Through this design, the oxygen absorber function is organically integrated with the storage box body via a sophisticated mechanical structure, achieving a perfect balance between functionality and practicality.

[0014] 2. With a carefully designed suction pump, when the deoxygenating agent runs out, the gas inside the chamber can be effectively and gradually drawn out, thereby gradually reducing the air pressure level inside the chamber. This process completely eliminates the dependence on chemical deoxygenating agents. It does not require the use of any form of chemical deoxygenating agent, but achieves a highly efficient deoxygenation effect through a purely physical method, namely reducing the air pressure inside the chamber. This method not only completely eliminates the risk of chemical pollution, but also avoids the consumable costs incurred by using chemical deoxygenating agents, truly achieving the environmental protection goal of zero pollution risk and zero consumable costs.

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example 1

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a tea storage box with deoxygenation function, including a box body 1, a placement component 2 and a suction component 3. The placement component 2 is disposed inside the box body 1, and the suction component 3 is disposed at the upper end of the box body 1. The placement component 2 includes multiple sliding grooves 21, which are respectively opened on both sides of the inner wall of the box body 1. A placement plate 22 is slidably connected inside each sliding groove 21. A placement drawer 23 is slidably connected to both sides of the inner wall of the placement plate 22. A through hole 24 is opened on the upper surface of each placement plate 22, and the lower end of each through hole 24 extends into the interior of the placement drawer 23. A first handle 25 is fixedly connected to the middle of the front outer wall of each placement drawer 23, and a second handle 26 is fixedly connected to the middle of the front outer wall of each placement plate 22.

[0024] Furthermore, the oxygen absorber is strictly and systematically placed in a specially designed drawer 23, ensuring complete physical isolation from the tea leaves and eliminating any risk of contamination. Users can easily replace the oxygen absorber by periodically removing the old drawer and inserting the new one, following the instructions. This process is not only extremely simple but also fast and safe. In addition, the drawer 23 is cleverly positioned within the storage space of the shelf 22, avoiding the occupation of the main storage space and optimizing overall space utilization. Through this design, the oxygen absorber function is organically integrated with the storage box body through a sophisticated mechanical structure, achieving a perfect unity of functionality and practicality. Example 2

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that:

[0026] The suction assembly 3 includes a suction pump 31, with a first connecting pipe 32 fixedly connected to the exhaust end of the suction pump 31. A one-way valve 33 is provided in the middle of the first connecting pipe 32. A second connecting pipe 34 is fixedly connected to the suction end of the suction pump 31. The lower end of the second connecting pipe 34 extends through the inner wall of the housing 1. A Bourdon tube 35 is provided at the front end of one side of the upper end of the housing 1. The lower end of the Bourdon tube 35 extends through the interior of the housing 1. A humidity sensor 4 and an oxygen concentration sensor 5 are fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the inner wall of the housing 1, respectively. A door 6 is hinged to the front end of the housing 1. A transparent observation window 7 is provided in the middle of the box. A third handle 8 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the front end of the box door 6. A sealing strip 9 is fixedly connected to the edge of the outer wall of the rear end of the box door 6. Multiple latches 10 are provided at the connection between the box door 6 and the outer wall of one side of the box body 1. A control panel 11 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the front end of the outer wall of one side of the box body 1. The air pump 31, humidity sensor 4, and oxygen concentration sensor 5 are all electrically connected to the control panel 11. Support legs 12 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower surface of the box body 1. Support seats 13 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support legs 12.

[0027] Furthermore, through the carefully designed suction pump 31, when the deoxygenating agent is used up, the gas inside the chamber 1 can be effectively drawn out gradually, thereby gradually reducing the air pressure level inside the chamber. This process completely eliminates the dependence on chemical deoxygenating agents. No chemical deoxygenating agents are needed. Instead, a highly efficient deoxygenation effect is achieved through a purely physical method, namely reducing the air pressure inside the chamber. This method not only completely eliminates the risk of chemical pollution, but also avoids the consumable costs incurred due to the use of chemical deoxygenating agents, truly achieving the environmental protection goal of zero pollution risk and zero consumable costs.

[0028] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.

[0029] The specific operating principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0030] First, open the box door 6, place the tea leaves on the upper surface of the placement plate 22, then close the box door 6 and secure it with the latch 10.

[0031] During storage, the oxygen absorber is strictly and systematically placed in a specially designed drawer 23 to ensure complete physical isolation from the tea, thereby eliminating any risk of contamination. Users can easily replace the oxygen absorber by periodically pulling out the drawer 23 and adding new oxygen absorber as instructed. This process is not only extremely simple, but also fast and safe. In addition, the drawer 23 is cleverly placed inside the storage plate 22, avoiding the occupation of the main storage space and thus optimizing the overall space utilization. Through this design, the oxygen absorber function is organically combined with the storage box body through a sophisticated mechanical structure, achieving a perfect unity of functionality and practicality.

[0032] The humidity sensor 4 and oxygen concentration sensor 5 can detect the humidity and oxygen concentration inside the chamber 1 in real time. When the deoxygenating agent is used up, the suction pump 31 gradually sucks out the gas inside the chamber 1, thereby gradually reducing the air pressure level inside the chamber 1. The negative pressure status inside the chamber 1 can be observed through the Bourdon tube 35. Then the suction pump 31 is turned off. This process completely eliminates the dependence on chemical deoxygenating agents. It does not require the use of any form of chemical deoxygenating agent, but achieves a highly efficient deoxygenation effect through a purely physical method, namely reducing the air pressure inside the chamber. This method not only completely eliminates the risk of chemical pollution, but also avoids the consumable costs incurred by using chemical deoxygenating agents, truly achieving the environmental protection goal of zero pollution risk and zero consumable cost.

[0033] It should be noted that the Bourdon tube 35, humidity sensor 4 and oxygen concentration sensor 5 of this utility model are existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail.

[0034] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
