Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Fermentation devices used in tea processing, such as automatic fermentation equipment for Pu'er tea, mainly work by using mechanical technology and intelligent control systems to control factors such as temperature, humidity, and oxygen content during the tea fermentation process, thereby precisely controlling the fermentation process. Therefore, fermentation devices are needed for tea processing.

[0003] According to the description in the fermentation device for tea processing published on the patent website (authorization announcement number: CN 222017630 U), "This utility model discloses a fermentation device for tea processing, including a fermentation tank. The surface of the fermentation tank is provided with multiple water filtering holes. A material conveying cover is provided on one side of the top of the fermentation tank. A servo motor is provided in the middle of the top of the fermentation tank. The output shaft of the servo motor is connected to a drive shaft. An L-shaped drive plate is sleeved on one end of the drive shaft. Several bristles are provided on one side of the L-shaped drive plate. A water collecting cylinder is sleeved on one end of the fermentation tank. By setting up water filtering holes, an L-shaped drive plate, a water collecting cylinder, abutting rod, and an inclined plate, the diameter of the water filtering holes is smaller than the diameter of the tea leaves. Therefore, the tea leaves always remain inside the fermentation tank for fermentation. Before the tea leaves ferment, the inner surface of the fermentation tank needs to be rinsed with sterile water to avoid residual contaminants inside affecting the quality of tea fermentation. The abutting rod can support the bottom of the inclined plate, making it easy for sterile water to flow out through the water filtering holes and be collected inside the water collecting cylinder."

[0004] Regarding the above description, the applicant believes the following issues exist: By designing and assembling core components such as the drive shaft, pull rod, metering tube, and liquid guide tube, this equipment achieves the dual functions of mechanical transmission and precise liquid delivery. The L-shaped drive plate and drive shaft use a threaded connection structure, allowing operators to easily disconnect by simply rotating the L-shaped drive plate in the opposite direction, facilitating quick replacement of worn drive plates and matching brush components. The clearly marked graduations on the metering tube, combined with the precise delivery of sterile water via the liquid guide tube, allow users to intuitively control the amount of liquid added, ensuring the stability of process parameters. However, in the tea fermentation stage, the equipment still has room for optimization. The current integrated stacked fermentation process results in a significant temperature and humidity gradient within the tea pile. Tea near the surface of the pile experiences ample air contact and active microbial metabolism, leading to a higher degree of fermentation. However, the core area suffers from insufficient oxygen supply and difficulty in heat dissipation, resulting in delayed fermentation. This unevenness directly leads to uneven color in the finished tea, with some areas retaining more chlorophyll and appearing greenish-blue. Simultaneously, the transformation of flavor compounds is incomplete, resulting in a single aroma level and a slightly astringent taste. Utility Model Content

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment of a tea processing fermentation device, including a base plate 1; it also includes a fermentation box 21 and a spraying assembly.

A cabinet door 4 is fixedly fixed to the front of the fermentation box 21, and a control device 5 is fixedly connected to the outside of the cabinet door 4. The spraying assembly is installed outside the fermentation box 21, and an adjusting assembly is installed inside the fermentation box 21. A fixing plate 22 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fermentation box 21, and a mounting bracket 23 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 22. A toothed plate 24 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the mounting bracket 23, and a limit rod 25 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the mounting bracket 23. A sliding plate 26 is slidably connected to the outside of the limit rod 25. A motor 27 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 27, which drives the rotating plate 28 to rotate. An intermittent plate 29 is rotatably connected inside a sliding plate 26, and a gear 211 is fixedly connected to the outside of the intermittent plate 29. A stirring plate 212 is fixedly connected to the inside of the gear 211. A placement box 210 is slidably connected to the bottom of a fixed plate 22. When the tea is fermenting, the motor 27 drives the rotating plate 28 to rotate, causing the rotating plate 28 to rotate inside the sliding plate 26, thus rotating the rotating plate 28 into the groove of the intermittent plate 29. When the rotating plate 28 rotates out of the groove of the intermittent plate 29, the intermittent plate 29 begins to rotate. At this time, the intermittent plate 29 drives the gear 211 to rotate, and the gear 211 drives the sliding plate 26 to rotate. The rotating disc 214 slides inside, and the stirring plate 212 rotates inside the placement box 210 as the gear 211 rotates, thus turning the tea leaves inside the placement box 210. The adjustment component includes a motor 213, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fermentation box 21. The output end of the motor 213 is fixedly connected to the rotating disc 214. The bottom of the rotating disc 214 is fixedly connected to a screw 215. The external transmission of the rotating disc 214 is connected to a rotating disc 216. The bottom of the rotating disc 216 is fixedly connected to a screw 217. A sliding rod 218 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fermentation box 21. The presence of the fermentation box 21 provides a foundation for other components. A through hole is provided on the limiting rod 25. The screw rods 215 and 217 are threadedly connected to the outside of the through hole 1. The screw rods 215 and 217 facilitate the up-and-down movement of the mounting frame 23 inside the fermentation box 21. The intermittent plate 29 has a sliding groove 1, and the rotating plate 28 drives the intermittent plate 29 to rotate through the sliding groove 1. The intermittent plate 29 facilitates the rotation of the gear 211. The toothed plate 24 has a toothed groove that meshes with the gear 211. The gear 211 facilitates the stirring plate 212 to turn the tea leaves inside the placement box 210. The toothed plate 24 has a sliding groove 2, and the sliding plate 26 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding plate 26 through the sliding groove 2. The array of toothed plates 24 facilitates the sliding of the sliding plate 26.

[0018] Please see Figure 5 In this embodiment, the spraying assembly includes a water tank 31, which is fixedly connected to the outside of the fermentation tank 21. A pump 32 is fixedly connected to the outside of the water tank 31, and a connecting pipe 33 is fixedly connected to the output end of the pump 32. An atomizing spray device 34 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting pipe 33. The presence of the pump 32 facilitates the delivery of water from the inside of the water tank 31 to the atomizing spray device 34.

[0019] During operation, the cabinet door 4 is opened, the placement box 210 is pulled out, tea leaves are placed inside the placement box 210 and then inserted into the top of the fixing plate 22. The cabinet door 4 is then closed, and the pump 32 controlled by the control device 5 sprays water from the water tank 31 evenly onto the tea leaves in the placement box 210 through the atomizing spray device 34. At this time, the motor 27 drives the rotating plate 28 to rotate, so that the rotating plate 28 is inside the sliding plate 26, thereby causing the rotating plate 28 to rotate into the groove of the intermittent plate 29. When the rotating plate 28 rotates out of the groove of the intermittent plate 29, the intermittent plate 29 begins to rotate. At this time, the intermittent plate 29 drives the gear 211 to rotate, and the gear 211 drives the sliding plate 26 to slide inside the rotating disk 214. At this time, the stirring plate 212 will rotate inside the placement box 210 with the rotation of the gear 211, thereby turning the tea leaves inside the placement box 210.

[0020] Through the above steps, the rotating plate 28 is driven to rotate by the motor 27. The rotating plate 28 rotates in the sliding plate 26 and is embedded in the groove of the intermittent plate 29. When the rotating plate 28 is disengaged from the groove of the intermittent plate 29, the intermittent plate 29 starts to rotate, driving the gear 211 to rotate. The gear 211 drives the sliding plate 26 to slide in the rotating disk 214. At the same time, the stirring plate 212 rotates with the gear 211 in the placement box 210, turning the tea leaves, promoting air contact and heat dissipation, and improving the fermentation quality.
