Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea drying technology, specifically a drying device for drying tea. Background Technology

[0002] Tea drying is a crucial step in tea processing, directly affecting the color, aroma, and quality of the tea. Traditional tea drying methods often use fixed ovens or natural sun-drying, which suffer from uneven heat distribution, low drying efficiency, high energy consumption, and uneven manual turning. Especially in mass production, the stacking of tea leaves leads to uneven heating between the inner and outer layers, easily causing some leaves to be over-dried or under-dried, affecting the overall quality.

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, an improved drying device for drying tea leaves is now designed. Utility Model Content

During drying, a woven basket containing tea leaves is placed on top of the fixed boxes. A connecting block is installed on the side wall of each fixed box, with the end of the connecting block away from the fixed box mounted on the inner wall of the box body. A gas supply pipe for supplying hot air into the fixed boxes is installed on the side wall of the fixed boxes. The end of the gas supply pipe away from the fixed boxes passes through the side wall of the box body and is connected to a main gas supply pipe. A connecting pipe is installed on the side wall of the main gas supply pipe, with the end of the connecting pipe away from the main gas supply pipe connected to the output end of a hot air furnace. A dehumidification mechanism for treating the humid air is provided at the top of the box body. A turning mechanism for turning the tea leaves in the woven baskets is provided inside the box body above the fixed boxes.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the dehumidification mechanism includes a dehumidifier, which is installed on the upper part of the housing. An air inlet pipe is installed at the input end of the dehumidifier, and the end of the air inlet pipe away from the dehumidifier is located on the top of the housing. An air outlet pipe is installed at the output end of the dehumidifier, and the end of the air outlet pipe away from the dehumidifier is connected to the air inlet of the hot air furnace.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the flipping mechanism includes a ring-shaped moving module corresponding to the fixed box. The ring-shaped moving module is horizontally installed on the inner wall of the box above the fixed box. The output end of the ring-shaped moving module is rotatably connected to a rotating rod. The end of the rotating rod away from the output end of the ring-shaped moving module is located at the center of the box. Several flipping rods for flipping tea leaves are vertically installed on the side wall of the rotating rod. A drive assembly for driving the rotating rod to rotate is provided above the ring-shaped moving module.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the driving component includes a fixed ring, which is horizontally installed on the inner wall of the housing above the annular moving module. A second bevel gear is installed on the side wall of the rotating rod near the output end of the annular moving module. A first bevel gear that cooperates with the second bevel gear is installed at the lower end of the fixed ring. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear mesh with each other.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, a sealing strip for sealing the box body is installed on the side wall of the box door.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the connecting block is fixedly connected to the fixing box and the box body by welding.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, a heat insulation layer for heat insulation is installed on the side wall of the box.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention delivers hot air to a fixed box to dry the tea leaves, ensuring even heating and effectively improving the drying efficiency of the tea.

[0013] This invention uses a ring-shaped moving module to drive the rotating rod and the turning rod to revolve around each other. Then, the second bevel gear rolls on the first bevel gear, causing the rotating rod and the turning rod to rotate on their own axis. This causes the turning rod to turn the tea leaves, further ensuring that the tea leaves are heated evenly and effectively improving the drying efficiency of the tea leaves.
