Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Tea processing is the process of turning fresh tea leaves into different semi-finished or finished tea products through a series of procedures, mainly including core steps such as fixation, rolling, and drying.

[0003] Fixing is a core step in tea processing. Its main function is to destroy and deactivate the oxidase activity in fresh leaves through high temperature, thereby inhibiting the enzymatic oxidation of active substances such as tea polyphenols. At the same time, it can evaporate some of the moisture in the fresh leaves, making the tea leaves softer to facilitate subsequent rolling and shaping operations. It can also effectively remove the grassy smell of fresh leaves, laying the foundation for the formation of good aroma in tea. In practical applications, most existing tea fixing devices rely on a single structure to turn the tea leaves, which can easily lead to local accumulation of tea leaves in the fixing box. Accumulated tea leaves cannot be evenly exposed to heat, resulting in some tea leaves being over-fixed and others under-fixed, seriously affecting the overall quality of the tea and lacking practicality. Therefore, it is necessary to redesign a tea fixing device to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a tea processing fixation device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A tea processing fixation device includes a base plate. A first rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the base plate via a connecting frame. A first motor connected to the first rotating shaft is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting frame. A fixing sleeve is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first rotating shaft via a fixing mechanism. A heat preservation box is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the fixing sleeve. A feeding channel communicating with the interior is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the heat preservation box. A fixation box is fixedly mounted at one end of the feeding channel, and a feeding hopper is fixedly mounted at the other end. An opening and closing door cooperating with the outlet of the fixation box is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the heat preservation box via multiple bolts. A heating resistance wire is wound around the outer wall of the fixation box. A second rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on both the heat preservation box and the interior of the fixation box. A second motor connected to the second rotating shaft is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the heat preservation box. An installation sleeve is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the second rotating shaft. A flipping plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the installation sleeve via a connecting mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a fixing block fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first rotating shaft, and the end of the fixing block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing sleeve.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes two connecting plates fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve, and the ends of the two connecting plates are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flipping plate.

[0009] Preferably, a support rod is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate, and a support plate is fixedly installed at the end of the support rod, wherein the support plate has an arc-shaped inner wall.

[0010] Preferably, a controller is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base plate via a mounting plate, and the controller is electrically connected to the first motor, the heating resistance wire, and the second motor.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. By setting up components such as a second rotating shaft, mounting sleeve, connecting plate and flipping plate, the second motor can drive the second rotating shaft to rotate. The second rotating shaft drives the flipping plate to rotate synchronously through the mounting sleeve and connecting plate. The rotating flipping plate can fully and evenly turn the tea leaves in the fixing box, effectively avoiding uneven heating of the tea leaves due to local accumulation, ensuring that all tea leaves can achieve the ideal fixing effect, and significantly improving the fixing quality of the tea leaves.

[0013] 2. By setting up components such as a first rotating shaft, a fixed block, and a fixed sleeve, the first motor can drive the first rotating shaft to rotate. The first rotating shaft drives the fixed sleeve, the heat preservation box, and the fixing box to rotate and tilt as a whole through the fixed block. After the tea leaves are fixed, the outlet end of the fixing box can be tilted downwards. By utilizing the weight of the tea leaves themselves, the fixed tea leaves can be discharged more smoothly from the outlet of the fixing box, avoiding tea leaves remaining or clogging in the box, and greatly improving the discharge efficiency.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] Reference Figure 1-5 A tea processing fixation device includes a base plate 1. A first rotating shaft 3 is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the base plate 1 via a connecting frame 2. A first motor 4, connected to the first rotating shaft 3, is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting frame 2. A fixing sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first rotating shaft 3 via a fixing mechanism. A heat preservation box 7 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 6. A feeding channel 10, communicating with the interior, is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7. A fixation box 11 is fixedly mounted at one end of the feeding channel 10. A feeding hopper 12 is fixedly installed at one end. An opening and closing door that matches the outlet of the blanching box 11 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7 by multiple bolts. A heating resistance wire 13 is wound around the outer wall of the blanching box 11. A second rotating shaft 14 is installed inside the heat preservation box 7 and the blanching box 11 and rotates together. A second motor 15 connected to the second rotating shaft 14 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7. An installation sleeve 16 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the second rotating shaft 14. A flipping plate 18 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the installation sleeve 16 through a connecting mechanism.

[0022] Furthermore, the connecting frame 2 is welded to the upper surface of the base plate 1 to ensure the overall structure is stable when the first rotating shaft 3 rotates. The feeding hopper 12 is designed in a funnel shape to prevent tea leaves from spilling when poured in. A sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the opening and closing door and the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7 to reduce heat loss inside the blanching box 11.

[0023] The fixing mechanism includes a fixing block 5 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first rotating shaft 3, and the end of the fixing block 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 6.

[0024] Furthermore, the fixed block 5 is rigidly connected to the first rotating shaft 3 and the fixed sleeve 6, which can efficiently transmit the torque of the first rotating shaft 3 to the fixed sleeve 6.

[0025] The connecting mechanism includes two connecting plates 17 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 16, and the ends of the two connecting plates 17 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flipping plate 18.

[0026] Furthermore, the two connecting plates 17 are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 16 to ensure that the flipping plate 18 is subjected to uniform force and to prevent deformation due to uneven force when the flipping plate 18 rotates. The connection parts between the connecting plate 17 and the mounting sleeve 16 and the flipping plate 18 are all reinforced to extend the service life of the connecting mechanism.

[0027] A support rod 8 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1, and a support plate 9 is fixedly installed at the end of the support rod 8. The support plate 9 has an arc-shaped inner wall.

[0028] Furthermore, the support rod 8 is perpendicular to the upper surface of the base plate 1, and the arc-shaped inner wall of the support plate 9 is adapted to the arc of the outer wall of the insulation box 7, which can increase the contact area between the two and improve the support stability of the insulation box 7.

[0029] A controller 20 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base plate 1 via a mounting plate 19. The controller 20 is electrically connected to the first motor 4, the heating resistance wire 13, and the second motor 15.

[0030] Furthermore, the controller 20 is equipped with operation buttons and a status display area on its surface. Operators can control the operation of each component through the operation buttons, and the status display area can provide real-time feedback on information such as the speed of the first motor 4 and the working status of the heating resistance wire 13. At the same time, the controller 20 has an overload protection function, which can automatically cut off the power when the component operates abnormally, ensuring the safe use of the device.

[0031] In use, the tea leaves to be processed are poured into the feeding hopper 12. The tea leaves then enter the feeding channel 10 through the feeding hopper 12, and then enter the processing box 11 through the feeding channel 10. Subsequently, the operator activates the heating resistance wire 13 through the controller 20 on the mounting plate 19. After the heating resistance wire 13 is energized, it generates heat and transfers it to the inside of the processing box 11, providing the necessary high-temperature environment for processing the tea leaves. At the same time, the controller 20 starts the second motor 15, which drives the second rotating shaft 14 inside the heat preservation box 7 and the processing box 11 to rotate. The mounting sleeve 16 on the outer wall of the second rotating shaft 14 rotates with the second rotating shaft 14. The shaft 14 rotates synchronously, and the mounting sleeve 16 drives the flipping plate 18 to rotate inside the fixing box 11 through the connecting plate 17. The rotating flipping plate 18 continuously flips the tea leaves inside the fixing box 11, so that the tea leaves are evenly contacted with the heat inside the fixing box 11, avoiding over- or under-fixing of tea leaves due to local accumulation. During this process, the heat preservation box 7 can effectively prevent the heat inside the fixing box 11 from being lost to the outside, maintaining a stable temperature inside the fixing box 11. The display screen of the controller 20 displays the temperature inside the fixing box 11 in real time. The staff can fine-tune the working status of the heating resistance wire 13 through the controller 20 according to the fixing needs of the tea leaves.

[0032] After the tea leaves have finished their withering process, the staff uses controller 20 to turn off the heating resistance wire 13 and the second motor 15. Then, the staff starts the first motor 4 using controller 20. The first motor 4 drives the first rotating shaft 3 inside the connecting frame 2 to rotate. The first rotating shaft 3 drives the fixing sleeve 6 to rotate through the fixing block 5. The fixing sleeve 6 drives the heat preservation box 7 on the inner wall and the withering box 11 associated with the heat preservation box 7 to rotate synchronously, so that the outlet end of the withering box 11 gradually tilts downward. Finally, the staff opens the opening and closing door on the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7 that matches the outlet of the withering box 11. Under the action of its own gravity, the withered tea leaves move along the tilted inner wall of the withering box 11 towards the outlet and are finally discharged from the outlet of the withering box 11, completing the entire tea withering process. When the heat preservation box 7 returns to a horizontal position, the support plate 9 at the end of the support rod 8 on the bottom plate 1 is in contact with the outer wall of the heat preservation box 7, providing stable support for the heat preservation box 7 and the withering box 11.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
